How quickly (hours) is quick and what is the iPod doing during that time?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up                                                                
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                                      
Enter the iPod's SN here. If it says you have warranty coverage no receipt is required.

  • Battery dies quick when watching a movie

    When I watch a movie on my 30gb ipod, the battery dies super fast. I have never made it through a movie without it dying. What is going on? What should I do?

    Video does use up battery power a lot faster than music does. However, you should at least be able to get through a single movie (assuming your movie is about 90-minute-2 hrs or so). How long do you get on the battery for music?

  • My battery dies quicker than before, even without using the phone .aslo it shuts down unxpectedly (sometimes shuts down at 30% then i cant restart it until i blog it to the charger) and sometimes jumps from 40% to 20% or from 20% to 3%

    hi!
    my battery dies quicker than before, even without using the phone
    aslo it shuts down unxpectedly (sometimes shuts down at 30% then i cant restart it until i blog it to the charger)
    and sometimes jumps from 40% to 20% or from 20% to 3%
    i have done many things people recommanded it for me like :
    restore : i've done two restores and it gets better for the first 1-2 weeks then it gets worse than before.
    also deleted my music list (19gb) in order to make this better (as recommended) but it still the same
    my screen brightness is always ALWAYS low , almost the lowest.
    i close the apps when i finish using them ALL OF THEM
    i dont use the camera and flash , almost rarely. just to save battery.
    i dont use the location service always.
    i dont charge my phone until it shuts down and i dont unblog it until it reachs 100%
    basically i have tried eveything.

    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My ipod shuffle battery dies quickly.  Any suggestions?

    My ipod shuffle battery dies quickly and when I plug it in to charge it just blinks orange. . .

    Hello jharris1222,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    The blinking orange status light indicates that the device is syncing with iTunes.  Please see the following for more information:
    Blinking orange indicates that the unit is syncing with iTunes or that disk use was enabled in iTunes. In this state, iPod shuffle may be charging or fully charged. Check the charge status icon next to the iPod shuffle in iTunes or eject iPod shuffle from iTunes but leave it connected to USB and determine if the status light changes to solid green or solid orange.

  • Ipad 2 battery dies quick

    Hi i had this ipad 2 for 2 months now and the battery dies very quick what can i do to not make it die so fast and another problem is when i have it plugged in my laptop it says not charging on the ipad in the corner what do i do for that i think it says not charging when it is plugged in a wall outlet please help me to resolve these two problems thank you

    There are tips for maximising battery life between charges on this page : www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
    In terms of not charging when connected to your computer, a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports in order to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
    If it says not charging when you are using the iPad wall charger, then have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Otherwise have you tried a different charger and/or cable ? Do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?

  • Battery Dies Quickly Since 3/08 security Update

    I'm not entirely sure they're connected but very near the latest security update, I noticed that my Mac Book Pro 15 inch, drains its battery extraordinarily quickly, like in 15 minutes, or it has also just shut down without warning.
    It's not a terrible issue but not something I'd expect from Apple.
    Nothin but Macs since '84,
    David

    Since no one answered, may be you should take the computer to apple store and show them about it, it's safe this way. Hope they would help you, they suppose to.

  • I have a classic 80gb and my battery dies quickly

    My battery dies way to fast, and ideas on why it does that?

    Which iPod do I have?
    From the age it's probably a 5th gen. classic. 6 years is a good innings for a rechargeable battery. Battery technology is evolving, but generally they don't like to be run really flat - that is so flat that the device shuts down and then the device not used for an extended period so that any residual charge is also consumed. Neither do they like to be used a just little bit and then topped up. The world is full of laptops with batteries that barely run 10 minutes because they've always been used on power. Somewhere between the extremes will give better life.

  • Battery dies faster when 'off' than when playing music or on standby.

    Seriously. If I leave it on pause I can let the screen go dark for days, maybe 40 hours.
    If I play music, its good for like 28hours straight.
    If I slide the thingy to power down, its dead in like 16 hours.
    Doesn't seem like its a battery issue but I am new to iPod.
    PS. iPod Touch 16GB - bought it second hand.

    PPS. I have it in airplane mode so location and wifi are off.

  • I tried to activate my iPhone 4 with Verizon but they said it was already under an account. The phone was brand new, what do I do?

    I recently tried to activate my iPhone that I bought brand new from eBay. I set up the phone so I could do everything with wifi but the other day, I called Verizon to get the phone activated but they said the IPhone is alreadyunder an account. I only set up my iTunes and iCloud on my phone. I contacted the seller and told them what Verizon said but she said the phone was already deactivated. What do I need to do? Or is there no hope? Help please

    If the eBay seller said the iPhone was already deactivated, then that is an admission that it was not a new iPhone.  It was used and activated by another user.
    Take your purchase receipt and the iPhone to a Verizon store, talk with their staff, and see if there is a way to get the iPhone removed from the other account.
    This may take time as they will likely want to be sure the iPhone has not been reported as stolen.
