I am losing battery time so fast I have to charge phone everyday under light use. Fast battery erin started after loading latest IOS version 7.1. What is fix?

Charging a smartphone on a daily basis has pretty much been par for the course for 7 years now unless you just don't use it at all...
Maybe you could clarify just how much it's draining and with what kind of usage...
Look at Settings>General>Usage... scroll down and look at the statistics for usage and standby. Keep track of this for a day or so.

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.
- Then see if placing the iPod in airplane mode when in standby helps.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

You just need a powered hub.. if you already use one then fine.
Plug in just about any external hard disk will work fine. Format has to be readable by the TC.. ie fat32.. or much better HFS+.. plug it into a Mac to prepare the drive.
Pick whatever size suits.. nowadays 2TB are most economical.
WD, Seagate have goobled up all the minor players.. so pick one.
Whatever suits your budget and asthetics.
NOTE.. The USB on the TC is fine for printers.. IMHO it is the wrong way to go with USB disks.. use the internal disk of the TC.. USB is less than half the native speed plugged into a Mac.. TC to USB is slow.. far slower than internal drive.. or using external drive as external.

I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?

You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

After the latest iOS update (8.1.2) my battery drains in 4-5 hours, on standby (5S 16gb) - and I'm not the only one

Hello,
Since the latest update, my iPhone 5S's battery life has decreased significantly.
In the past, I've never ran into any issues. I have my 5S for over an year now.
Prior to the 8.1.2 update, a full battery lasted for about 24h (usage time >= 4h) to 50-60 hrs (on standby, no usage).
However, after updating, I can see my battery decrease in an alert mode ( about 2-3 % every 3-4 minutes, even on standby).
I've tried all the solutions possible, including but not limited to:
- downgrading to iOS 8.1.1 (I managed to do it, because Apple is still signing the IPSW files). - didn't work, no improvement
- restoring and updating again to 8.1.2 , starting from scratch (I've backed up all my stuff first, restored, updated, set iphone as 'new' , didn't put my data back on) - didn't work, no improvement
I've also chatted with the tech support today and they diagnosed my device, saying:
Quoting support operator:
"Good news, it seems that everything for the hardware side —WiFi, Cellular, and Battery is looking beautiful! That is awesome! Some of the software though does seem to be affecting some things I do see. So, we have found out what the cause is. Next step is getting it taken care of so it doesn’t continue. I want to make sure you don’t have to keep worrying about your battery life."
The only fix they offered was restoring and updating to the latest version, 8.1.2 , again. I've told them I've already tried it, but I thought to give it another try. Unsuccessful again, battery still draining quickly.
I've discussed with another operator about 7 hours later, describing my problem and also told them other users experience this issue too:
Iphone iOS 8.1.2 battery drain remains
No iOS 8 Battery Drain Problems Until iOS 8.1.2
These are only two topics I've found on apple support forums, but many others are experiencing this too.
The technical support employee told me that Apple didn't yet discover this bug and if they do (on a large scale) they will issue an update, or a fix.
That's why I ask you all who have this issue to come and post here, to let Apple know we want our devices to work normally again.
I can't use my iphone if, it drains 100% of battery in 5-6 hours without abnormal usage time!! I also don't think it's healthy for the battery to recharge it 2-3 times a day.
Something needs to be done. I regret every day my decision to update to this version of iOS . I will never update again prior to reading other users' experince on the update.
Please, Apple, do something!
Oh, and by the way, I would go to a service to have this looked into by a specialist, but in my country (and I'm sure there are other countries too) there aren't any Apple services , only shops. And I can't risk taking my phone to a local GSM repair shop, I don't trust them.
Hoping for the best,

I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

The Firefox 8.0.1 release is crashing ALL THE TIME on MacBook Pro OSX 10.6.8 after installing latest Flash version

At this time, Firefox is virtually unusable on the Mac now.
This is not related to any particular website, although websites with flash or java script or "fancier" I/Fs are assured to crash Firefox.
For example, a minute ago, I tried to enter a search phrase into Google (main page) and crash. I tried to enter a search phrase into Netflix search window and crash. I hadn't seen a crash on the Fox News pages though and they are rich content.
Firefox wasn't doing this before the 8.0.1 update (but I can't distinguish this event from the update of Flash to 11.1.102)
I do know that Firefox is virtually unusable (and I'm in Safari at this moment).
I suppose its possible that something on the Mac changed (firmware) but why isn't there a problem with Safari then?
Its not like I have time for a full fledged debug of another software application!!! I don't (and I AM a professional software developer that develops on ALL the platforms/OS including OSX all versions, Windows back to XP, and Linux most flavors and I'm a Qt expert also)
I've NEVER had this problem before. At first I was leaning towards the Flash update. But now I'm not sure.
If someone would suggest a progression of moves to isolate this issue, I'll take that much time to troubleshoot this. I can't quite believe that more people aren't having this problem.
ok.. I'll start with disabling plugins. Then I'll start backing up to previous versions, starting with Flash, then Firefox as these were the latest 2 updates.

I'm going to back up to Firefox 7 next. I'm getting the drift that 8.0.1 and/or flash on 8.0.1 are unstable.
I'll let you know if that solves this problem.
NOPE. This had no effect.

Third time this year i have lost my phone has stop...

hello,
I have had quite a bit of trouble with my broad band and phone line recently, i reported a fault on 4pm saturday, and was called back at 8pm saturday and a message was left on my mobile saying i had to make an appointment for an engineer to visit,
I called back on sunday morning and was told an engineer had been to my house on saturday! there was someone in my house
all day saturday no one called at my house???
I was then told the next visit could not be arranged until friday? i thought there was a 3 day promise to fix a phone line. i then had to agree to a £99 charge if the problem was on my property ( it isn't as ihave checked the test socket with 3 working phones) My phone line had 6 problems with it when it was fixed in March the engineer said they would need to run a new cable but when they came they just repaird it ( diffrent engineer) how can i get this sorted i have had the phone line for 20 plus years without a problem but it seems the wire is getting old how can i get it changed?

'i reported a fault on 4pm saturday, and was called back at 8pm saturday and a message was left on my mobile saying i had to make an appointment for an engineer to visit, I called back on sunday morning and was told an engineer had been to my house on saturday! there was someone in my house all day saturday no one called at my house???'
Call Centre obviously not reading their computer right, if you reported a fault at 4pm on Saturday to BT by the time it was fitered through to Openreach and tested by a Diagnostic Test Officer it would have been gone 5pm at the earliest. The fault will have then been sent to the work allocation for your area and there is no way in a million years the work control would allocate a fault after 5pm when all the engineers have done for the day or are packing up to go home.
'I was then told the next visit could not be arranged until friday? i thought there was a 3 day promise to fix a phone line'
Openreach aim to respond to a fault within three working days, they have never and will never promise to fix it within three days because it is impossible to guarantee a repair in three days, especially if they have to dig up roads, replace poles, etc. Also at the minute Openreach are super busy because of all the really bad weather.
'and what about getting the line renewed?'
What part of the line are you talking about?

Battery failure on 4S after uploading latest ios update

Updated the latest IOS software update yesterday and this morning my battery was completely dead. Went to the Apple store and they could not charge it and told me I would have to buy a new phone or a new battery. Anyone else have this problem?

It is horrible ! my wife is kicking and screaming because I convinced her to upgrade to IOS 7 and happens to be that she just doesn't like the os but I have a major issue with the battery, I have closed all location services period ! turned off my wi-fi completely, not using my bluetooth at all, basically turned every option that makes it a smartphone and still I am only able to get 3.5 hours on a 100% charged battery to phone going dead. If I put it on airplane mode then It seems to be ok. That tells me that there is still some setting that i have not turned off that is draining my battery. The phone does get warm when it is off the airplane mode. I have turned off the background app refresh, all location services, all notifications, all of the so far posted recommended fixes but no result, apple can not hold our devices hostage like this. Need a fix ASAP !.

I have an old ipod that i have not used in a very long time, ive had it on a charger now for over an hour and i still cnnot get my ipod to turn on, how can i fix my problem, i just downloaded the new version of itunes aswell, so i know its not my itunes.

i have an old ipod touch that i have not used in a very long time, and im having trouble gettign it to turn on. ive had it on a charger for over an hour now and still nothing hs changed. i just updated my itunes to the current version they haev so i know its not an itunes problem its rather a problem with the old ipod touch itself. im leaving for deployment soon and im trying to get this fixed without having to send it in. If anyone has any ideas on how to get this thing turned on it would be greatly appreciated.

Well, two thoughts.
The battery has completely discharged and will take overnight to recharge, so don't expect much in an hour.
The battery has deep discharged and is now dead. It will never recharge and should be replaced.

Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.
The flat fee for a battery exchange is, I believe, $99.00 USD.

My battery is not being charged through charger actually it is being charged but really very slow and computer not recognising device after update to ios 6

my phone battery is not being charged through the laptop or when it is switched off the phone is being charged and after its on it does not show charging icon but charges at a real slow speed pls help as facing this froblemm since ios6 update

Hello,
I wrote on another tread with same subject about month or two ago and until now, no one replied. I had the same problem. Today, I was at the friend who has HP laptop. We tried to solve the problem and tried it as follows:
1. My battery in my laptop with my charger - not charging (appears in windows battery charging but all the times it remains at 90 %).
2. His battery in his laptop with his charger - everything is working fine (this is just for the records)
3. My laptop, his battery his charger - everything is fine.
4. His laptop, my battery and his charger - everything is working fine
5. My laptop, my battery and his charger - everything is OK.
I didn't try putting my charger in his laptop with his battery inside. But from above, it seams that something is wrong with the charger. Does anyone have some explanation? This is totally weird problem. Is there any logic in the charger that can prevent somehow battery charging? I am waiting another friend to bring his laptop and charger to assure that everything is OK with my motherboard and battery ( after all, charger is the cheapest, isn't it?) Since I'm electrical engineer, i would like to hear some explanation for this problem.

New battery run dead and now won't charge at all. Put in old battery and system runs fine just that battery is no good.

Old battery in MBP is testing bad so I purchased a new one. When I cycle the battery as soon as it totally drains down it will now not take a charge or even boot my computer with the cord plugged in. I have tried many many dif things to get it to run, so far nothing has worked. I put in the old battery and it boots right up.

HT1438 my iphone 4 just won't power up, it was half battery when it shut down, have tried charging or connect with my MacBook still nothing happen?

my iphone 4 just won't power up, it had half battery when it power off, tried connecting to my Macbook still nothing happen, what's the reason?

Try holding both the on and off buttons(top and bottom of phone) at the same time and keep holding until the apple sign comes up then let go and wait, worth a try.
