Ipad drains battery fast when off

Over the last few days I noticed my ipad2 battery is draining fast even when I leave it off all day. It never did that before. I also noticed it felt warm even though i am not using it. Solution anyone???

If Whatsapp is the only app causing you this issue, I recommend contacting the developer.

Is my new phone battery draining to fast when surfing the web???

I had/still have problems with my iPhone 3G and the 3G network. To make a long story short, i was given a new phone and the problems have not been fixed.
However when using safari or GPS or any surfing activity on my old phone i could get anywhere from 4 1/2 to 6 hours battery life when using a heavy amount of safari(i use the phone 75% of the time for that alone) weather and stocks, and a few texts and calls and other features. I could get through the day easily when unplugging it around 8 in the morning and didn't have to plug it back in until night.
The new phone seems to drain much faster with very similar use. The only two things i can think of is a tad more GPS and a lack of a strong signal because i was on vacation on marthas vineyard(not a whole lot of service on half the island, lot of signal searching). I notice the battery drains very funny also.
I can get like a half an hour usage before a blip comes off the battery indicator and sometimes i can get an hour. But those will follow up in the second hour draining to like 25% remaining. I can get between 2-2 1/2 hours before my 20% warning comes up. I was used to like 4 1/2 hours before the warning.
I looked online and saw that my new phone was actually similar to some time tests for surfing the web, my old iphone was alot of things, but it wasn't a battery drainer. So im wondering if my new phone is having a problem or my old phone was a "special" phone.
Just wanna know before i contact apple.

If you are surfing using 3G it will drain the battery faster than on EDGE. If you have WiFi on while you are searching using 3G/EDGE the battery will drain faster so turn it off. Signal hunting will also drain it a bit faster. Since you have a new phone it will take a few battery cycles before you see the true charge life of the battery.

Heating Up & Draining battery fast on iPhone 5s after iOS 7.1 update

Hi,
I updated my iPhone 5s 64GB to iOS 7.1 & it's heating up and draining battery so fast not to mention when I charge it , it takes longer time to charge!
I didn't have this issue before on the previous version. I tried restoring my iPhone two times & also rebooting my iPhone five times, but nothing works!
I've looked in other complaints and some of them suggested to switch off background app refresh and locations!
I didn't have this issue before and I won't turn them off because if the problem because of it then I should experience the same problem on the previous version and why would I turn it off? So what's the purpose of the phone?
My wife, my sister, my brother & my mom they got an iPhone 5 and they don't experience this problem except me!
My iPad Air and my wife iPad Mini 2( Retina Display) and there is no problem with the iOS 7.1 .
I've looked in other websites and found that there are other people experiencing the same problem. Apple should fix this problem ASAP!
Is there anyone experiencing the same problem and what did he/she do to fix it incase he/she fixed it !

I don't have any issues with my 5S on 7.1
Have you actually taken your phone to the Apple store and have them look at it?
Even if you don't want to turn off background app refresh, you should turn it off and see what the results are.
also you said you restored twice, did you restore as NEW?

Apple ipod touch 5 losing battery even when off

I have an ipod Touch 5g on operating system ios 7.1.2 and non jailbroken. Recently, the battery has begun draining rapidly (it lasts about 2 hours on the usual apps and websites I go on rather than the normal 5-6 hours). It has also been losing battery when completely off, much like it would when on. The charging process is also rather slow.
My ipod is only two months old, and this happened once before, although once the battery had run out in the morning and I recharged it, it was okay again, but the same thing has now happened again and hasn't fixed.
I've tried resetting and restoring my ipod with no improvements, as well as trying other backups to check that one wasn't corrupt. I also tried turning off elements of icloud, because I googled my issue and some people suggested that may help; it was to no avail.
I also keep getting a diagnostic that says something like this and was wondering if this was anything to do with the problem:
{"os_version":"iPhone OS 7.1.2 (11D257)","name":"Reset count","bug_type":"115"}
Hopefully, someone can shed some insight on this situation. I'm still under warranty so if a trip to the genius bar is needed, I guess that is where I shall have to go. Thanks to anyone who helps.

I've turned all my background app refresh off now, although I only had one on and this was never a problem before. Also, my battery is always on the lowest setting even before there was a problem with the battery.
I removed all my mail accounts and readded them, after a pop up came up about them one morning. This has significantly improved my battery life when on and off, however my battery still drops a little faster than usual (especially when off).
I've started to get something like this in diagnostics (about battery):
{"os_version":"iPhone OS 7.1.2 (11D257)","bug_type":"120"}
i'm unsure whether this has anything to do with the problem but I thought I'd add it to this discussion in case.
I'm also thinking about updating to ios8 to see if this helps my issue.

Yoga 2 Pro Draining Battery Fast in Sleep Mode

I have a new Yoga 2 Pro with i7 processor. It works great and normal battery life is about 4-5 hours. But with a fully charged battery, i can close the lid at night triggering sleep mode, and wake up to an almost dead battery.
Why is this happening? It's really dissapointing and I'm going to return it if I can't find a fix. I'm on the latest BIOS with all current updates. I am not using Hibernate mode.
Closing the lid shoud not cause battery to continue to drain at normal usage rates.
I'm hoping it's the WINDOWS 8 software but I've tried all the settings I can find.

the OP said battery was draining overnight because y2p was not going into sleep mode. then op changed some settings and, as i understand it, now his y2p does not drain battery overnight because he pushes power button and it goes into hibernate mode before closing lid.
I would like to raise the issue of the difference between hibernate and sleep mode. I too find that if i put my y2p (and my mbp-bootcamp) into hibernate mode then my battery does not drain overnight. however, both my laptops drain the battery overnight in sleep mode... anyone have clear understanding of this? i've look at many articles on the web, but haven't found any that specifically indicate how fast sleep mode should drain batteries. I think my gf's mba-OSx also drains overnight in sleep mode and OSx doesn't even have a hibernate option (correct me if i'm wrong)...

Does notification drain battery even when not connected to wifi?

i figured just to have it on and turn my wifi off. does it drain battery if i leave it on?

well if not going over WiFi it would use GPRS/EDGE or 3G and that would drain battery instead.

Does the 15" 2014 GT 750M model drain battery faster than the iris pro version?

I can't decide between the 750M model or the iris pro model. I've heard the GT 750M is not worth the additional price
as it drains the battery much quicker, is this true?

The 15-inch MacBook Pro with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M also comes with an Intel GPU, which is the same GPU as the model without the NVIDIA GPU.
This means that the battery life will be the same in both models with tasks that do not require higher GPU performance (home tasks). The NVIDIA GPU is enabled when you need more performance, so you do not need to worry about that. However, as the NVIDIA GPU is more powerful, it needs more power, reducing the battery life when it is being used

New ipad turns on when plugged to be recharged - battery level when off?

1- Is it normal that the ipad turns itself on automatically when plugged to be recharged?
2- When it is recharging while it is off, can one see the battery status or when it is fully charged?
Thank you for your help.

Yes it is normal. If the iPad battery is below a certain level of charge it is perfectly normal for it to turn on when charging.
2- When it is recharging while it is off, can one see the battery status or when it is fully charged?
No. If the iPad does not turn on, you cannot see the battery indicator.

Portege Z930 drains battery even when power off

I noticed that if I unplug the laptop during night with the battery at full charge, after 8 hours it has lost 4% of charge after a complete power off...
That's crazy!!
Is this the normal behaviour?
Or, can I modify something in the BIOS in order to reduce this power drain?
da

Dude disabling the Sleep / Charge and disabling Wake Up on LAN in BIOS and in the device manager (LAN card -> Properties -> Advanced tab) should help.
Dont forget to save the BIOS after some changes has been made.
If you would read some posting about the same theme, you will find many reports that this helped other community members.

Why does my MB Pro's battery drain so fast when using Numbers?

Hello community!
I have this problem since I updated my MB Pro to Mountain Lion. Everytime I start using Numbers (latest version), the fan of my Laptop goes on and the running time of my battery drops to 1 1/2 hours. My MacBook also gets really warm. Everything seems that Numbers is not running really efficiently on my Laptop. That makes it hard to follow an entire lecture and it's really annoying for me and my classmates; because of this issue I currently use Excel instead.
I have a MacBook Pro late 2012 with the 2.7 GHz i7, 4 GB Ram and OS X 10.8.2.
I don't experience those problems when I'm using pages or keynote.
Does anyone have the same problem? Are there any suggestions?

This issue was first noted here around the beginning of August, 2012. See this thread, but don't take the reply marked "solved" too seriously—it turned out to be premature.
Briefly, the issue is that Numbers consumes about 70% of available CPU time/activity whenever the mouse pointer is on a table. That CPU usage consumes power, creates heat, and activates the fans.
No solution as yet. A summary of suggestions:
File a bug report (Numbers menu > Provide Numbers Feedback)
If you're near an Apple Store, take the MBP to the Genius Bar and demonstrate the issue using your machine (or any 2012 MBP with Numbers installed).
Move the mouse pointer off any table whenever possible.
Check the thread for any I've missed.
Regards,
Barry

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.

Fake cord drains battery faster

Hey everyone.
I have an iPhone 5 and my cable was broken. While waiting to get a new one from Apple, I bought a fake cord since obviously my old cord was not useable. Once I started using the fake cord, I noticed that my battery would drain faster than itt used to. An example would be that if I left it at around 75% at night, I would wake up with my battery at 15% . I've tried turning the wifi off before going to bed, but it's still the same. I was wondering if this is a battery issue or if it's a problem with the fake cord? This all started when I was using a fake cord. Thanks!

Stop using the fake cord and see if the problem goes away. If it does, the problem is the cord. If it doesn't, the problem may be with the battery. Or, it may be that the fake charger damaged something. If the problem continues, make an appointment to have the phone looked at.

Sleep drains battery fast

I've got a new C2D MacBook and I've noticed I lose a ton of power in sleep mode without the ac adapter connected. For example, the battery drained 30% in just 1 day on sleep. I know from experience of using my G4 iBook I could go for many days in sleep mode for losing so much power.
And yes, I've calibrated the battery as directed by the Apple support page. Any MacBook pro users also seeing such a rapid decline in power? I've set the power settings with the default options for plugged in and run off battery. Anyone else notice this?

My mac book does not go to the sleep mode even if i close the monitor (LCD) lid down. Previously it did do so. The problem started a few days back.
tried reinstalling the OS 10.4.6. again but did not help. I have tried all other options of safe booting / boooting from the install dvd's.. but doesnt help...
Could any one suggest something new.

IPhone 4S draining battery faster than it's charging

So, I, like others, have had issues with my iPhone ever since upgrading to iPhone 6.1. I went to an Apple store, and because the connector dock was acting strange they said it might be a hardware issue. My phone basically bricked after that, and was dead for 2 days, but for some reason I kept it plugged in, and out of nowhere I had enough charge to restore it (via iTunes, using the restore method rather than a simple restore). After that it charged to 100%, just like normal. I went back to the Apple store, they tested the battery and said it was running perfectly. I asked if I can start putting apps and stuff back on, they said yes, I did, and now it doesn't charge past 70%. I restored it once again, and now it won't charge past 65%.
Can I blame this on 6.1, 6.1.1, and 6.1.2? or is there something I should do that might fix this? I've used multiple cords and chargers.

Hi guys,
Click «about this mac», in the apple menu, and then click «more info». This will open the system profiler window where you can see in more details the actual state of the battery, if you highlight it in the left column (probably under «power», I don't know because my system's in french, sorry). My remaining capacity at full charge is around 4900 mah (it was at 5200 when I first got the Macbook), and I'd say I get about 4,5 hours if I'm very careful. If your numbers are way under this (providing the number of charge cycles is reasonable), my guess is you have a bad battery. Good news is you're covered by AppleCare.
See this thread for great insight into battery life, etc: (see the post by macbook7)

Thunderbold battery dies when off too

If I turn off the thunderbolt phone at 25% remaining, you would think battery would have something left still. Makes me think it is something that is a hardware design flaw, and something software or firmware updates may never fix? Not a good phone to travel with, always have another means to call if you think turning if off will help, it does not.

Just like many appliances in your home. Just because they have been turned OFF, doesn't mean they are not drawing power. To truly turn off, take out the battery (unplug from the outlet).
