IPad battery drained overnight after downloading iOS7, why?

I downloaded iOS7 on my iPad2 on Thursday 19 September. Everything worked fine after the download. When I opened the iPad on Friday morning, there was no battery life left. Am now charging it up, but don't know what caused this. Any suggestions?

No it doesn't need to be, but if it is on and isn't be used then it will drain the battery, likewise so will these:
Wifi
Celluar data - if applicable to your iPad
Location Services
Also of note is the following Settings>General>Background App Refresh - this is a new feature which can also use up additional battery power.
Regards,
Steve

    Now it doesn't feels like i m using an apple device .
    idevices should be flawless thats what it was

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • IPad battery drained overnight; now it won't charge; what do I do?

    My iPad (first issue) drained overnight and now it won't charge. Totally dead.
    What shall I do?

    Hello Christie,
    With it still plugged in, try a hard reset to see if that helps.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  This may or may not work the first time around, so be sure to try this at least a couple of times.

  • How do I open a disabled ipad without a passcode after downloading ios7

    I downloaded the ios 7 yesterday and then was prompted to use a passcode.  A passcode, I might add, that I do not recall creating when I set up my ipad at Christmas.  I also did not sync this ipad with my computer.  Now, after several attempts to "accidentally" discover a passcode, I find that my ipad is now Disabled....and to open it again, I must attach it to "the computer with which you first synced the device"....which didn't happen in the first place.  What is the best way  to Re-enable my ipad?

  • I canon play video from my ipad through my Apple TV after downloading ios7 any idea why?

    Is there any reason I can't play video from my ipad through Apple TV after downloading ios7?

    Home sharing isn't working either
    Which is why you can not use the remote app.  Did you turn on home sharing on your computer and on ATV?
    eve though they have the same Apple ID.
    Did you enter the ApplieID in the home sharing login though?  Or just in for the iTunes store, or iCloud, or photo sharing, or something else?
    Home sharing isn't working either, I can't play or transmit any video from my iPad to the Apple TV because it doesn't recognize it
    That would be AirPlay, not homesharing.  THey are not related.  Did you enable air play on all the devices?
    Have you run the network test tools on ATV?  Can ATV access the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

  • HT1414 anyone noticing a decline in battery life after downloading ios7????

    anyone noticing a decline in battery life after downloading ios7?

    I have an iphone 5. Ios 7 is a disaster for battery life! It used to drain about 1% every two hours, 5% over night roughly (not being used). Now it is draining at double the rate. It drained 10% over night and it isn't even doing a thing. I think something is clocking up usage when it's idle.
    Screen brightness is minimal.
    Background app updating is restricted to one app which isn't running the majority of the time.
    Dynamic wall paper and other stupid stuff is all turned off.
    I can't turn off the stupid clock animation. I wonder if working out how that is displayed is the issue???
    It shouldn't be draining at 1% per hour when not even being used.
    Favourite locations is still switched on.
    Is there any benefit in turning off wifi and using 3g data only? I had the issue before that having 3g enabled meant double the battery drain so I only used it when I was out.
    Ipad mini seems fine though. Battery life is same as last ios6 ie about 14-16 hours use.
    I now have caret running to find out what the rogue thing is. The majority of the time few apps are running at all.
    My general average usage is 12-15% per day if lightly used and 25-45% if it is moderately used. Now the phone is draining at 25-33% a day when lightly used!
    Beats me why an ipad mini which is advertised at up to 10 hours on wifi nearly doubles that and the iphone which is advertised at the same rarely reaches it. I usually get 8 hours of active use if I'm lucky. Now it's more like 5-6 which is hopeless.

  • My ipad battery drains much faster after iOS 7 upgrade

    my ipad battery drains 4x faster after ios7 upgrade.....how do I fix this? 

    Dig into your settings. iOS7 defaults a lot of stuff on that you may not need. Such as tons of notifications, background app updates, background app refresh. Turn extra stuff off and see if that helps.

  • HT4623 i no longer have video capability on my ipad mini after downloading ios7. has anyone else had this problem?

    i no longer have video capability on my ipad mini after downloading ios7. has anyone else had this problem?

    Describe the problem. Won't show videos? Won't take videos? Or other?
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Why won't Netflix nor iTunes load on my iPad and iPhone since I downloaded iOS7 and I OS 7.0.2?

    Why won't Netflix nor iTunes load on my iPad and iPhone since I downloaded iOS7 and I OS 7.0.2?

    Sounds like you may need to re-download the entire albums from iTunes. See this KB article for how to download past purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
    I'd suggest doing it one album at a time. Delete one, download it from your purchase histor, then the next, etc.

    Hi, TereseS. 
    I had the same issue after the update.  Most likely this feature just needs to be enabled.  Go to Settings > Messages and turn on Group messaging.

  • Ipad battery drain

    ipad battery drains even when sleeping after upgrade to ios 7. I've turned off app refresh and notifications. What else can I do?

    I done a few changes on my iPad 4 and battery will not drain much during sleep now:
    1) change wallpaper from dynamic to static
    2) disable background update
    3) done a reset by holding power button and home button together.
    Hope above can help.
