    Settings -> General -> Backroung App refresh
    Either selectively disable the ones you do not need, or just disable the feature altogether.  Esepcially for apps that would be using location services, this has the potential to be a huge battery drain.
    Also, in Privacy under Locations services, system services, disable at least the "popular near me" and "location based iAds" - both of these use location services a lot as they try to track your movements in real time.  You can disable everything in system services if you wish (won't harm anything).

  • My battery dies when I'm not even using my phone.  3rd 4s since aug '12.  Everythings turned off, blah blah.  SO OVER APPLE.  Can anyone help.  Was @ Apple Sat

    3rd 4s since Aug '12.  My battery dies by the second.  Just unlocking it, brings the % down.  Was @ Apple Sat & going back today.  Haven't upgraded to the ios7.  Apps are all closed, light is turned down...I've done & do it all.  This is the "new" (refurbished) phone from Sat & I can't even use it because the battery dies simply by unlockng.  SO OVER Apple.  Make a flippin product that works...that's what we pay for !!  Can anyone help ?

    Hello,
    If you're in a country where there's an apple shop (unfortunately not mine), go check it and ask the employee about it: he's gonna check your Iphone on a "device"
    I've got an iphone 5 and it's working very well with me but I have to admit that its battery lasts (slower) than my Ipad 2.
    Still i can help with some tips that may improve your iohone's battery by an hour in addition (hopefully):
    - close all apps by multitasking....
    - do NOT keep the brightness to the max
    Believe me you're gonna regret changing your phone to a samsung
    Hope i've helped and sorry for my bad english (has english as 3rd language)

  • I just recently bought my macbook pro 13 inch with still a 1 year battery warranty. When I don't even use my laptop, it drains my battery 30%. Would apple change my battery for free if i have a 1 year warranty on it?

    Do you think i should go to an Apple store to change my battery or go to the store where i bought it?

    Your battery would slowly drain during any period of disuse even if it were removed from the computer and nothing were connected to it at all. A fundamental property of every battery is that whenever it isn't being charged, it's draining. If your compputer is shut down entirely, expect the battery to lose 0.5-1% per 24 hours without AC power connected. When it's sleeping, it will lose closer to 1% per hour. In either situation, leaving the AC adapter plugged in will prevent the battery from draining more than 5-7% in total before it starts to charge back up again.

  • Why am I invoiced for iCloud when I don't even use it?

    Have iPhone 5c. Used for one year. Do NOT use iCloud. Received an invoice from Apple today for $10.99 for storage on 3/18/15.  I DON"T use iCloud and never have. How do I contact Apple to refute this invoice?

  • IPhone4 battery draining when not in use

    am just wondering if anyone experiencing battery draining when not in use? i charge my iphone4 before going to bed and woke up this morning to realise that my battery had drain 22% on stand by... is this normal? can anyone confirm it to me please, thank you

    Just an update guys --after draining (on standby) over 20% of my battery charge last week, it has risen to or about 40+% in the last couple of days. I haven't changed any settings or whatsoever. I had to charged it twice during the day yesterday and it was bloody frustrating. anyway, i went to the apple shop today and told them the problem... they scanned my iphone4's battery and it was evident and showed when was the last time it was charged and how much battery life has it lost throughout the day. After scanning my iphone we did not even have to discuss repair or do any setting or software checks. I was gobsmacked --as i did not have to ask for a replacement, I was immediately offered a swap to a brand new iPhone4... lucky me? umm, i don't know...maybe? But the thing is, they seemed to be aware of the problem and they are keeping a low profile on tackling the problem. so my suggestion is if anyone has a battery problem with their unit, take it to apple and have the battery scan. As such, i have to wait and see if this new unit will present the same problem, although i must admit, for some reason, this new unit has a slight different behaviour than my previous iphone4.
    Other issues on my previous iPhone4:
    1. frequently dropping signal --not a problem with the new replacement unit
    2. if i turn off my "phone" feature on the multitasking bar, red dot appears on the phone icon and i couldn't make a call as it seemed blocked and it kept asking me to set-up the voicemail feature every time --again, not a problem with the new unit.
    3. even my tomtom app has changed its behaviour, i have discovered new features without updating the app --strange isn't it?
    4. playing NOVA game was a pain with the previous unit as i kept getting network problem and interrupting the game.
    5. it kept shuffling my music when i'm using ipod whilst walking. imagine, hearing about 8 different tunes in a span of 5 seconds...
    anyway, time will tell with this new unit as i have kept the same settings from my previous unit and uploaded my previous back-up data and apps. so it would be like having my old iphone4 and we'll see in the morning if it will drain on stand by as well --i hope not 'cos am getting really frustrated with it. oh, by the way, blue tooth feature don't work with my new replacement unit --NICE!!!

  • My iphone 3gs battery drains very fast

    my iphone 3gs battery drains very fast it won't last for whole day
    i just uses mail application and  facebook for some time
    can u tell why the problem is or need to change battery

    I'm having the same problem with my 3Gs.  In my case it is not the apps int he background or the brightness, or wifi or email push.  The folks at the apple stroe tell me that there is some software glitch that shows up every few months.
    I can only get rid of it by restoring my phone as a new device.  In which case I lose all of my contacts, settings and all data.  VERY frustrating. I had recived two new phones (before applecare ran out) and have done the resotre several times.  No one can tell me what is in that creates this probelm.  I've tried differenet chargers one by one in case they are the probelm.  one int he car, one in a kitchen outlet, one at my home computer (sync) and on at my office computer (non-sync). 
    Problem just showed up again randomly two days ago,  no new apps or hardware.  battery drains from full to 0 in two hours.
    Apple, please fix.

  • IPhone 4s battery drain: one of the reasons

    Hi All!
    I found one of the reason of battery drainage. I'm sure by 100% and that's why:
    Since the day 1 I have very good battery life: about 0.3-0.5% battery off during standby, charge needed 1 per 2 days etc. Nothing to complain. It was during 2 months already. Most of things on.
    I use the iPhone with 2 simcards and change it about twice a month. Today morning I did the next exchange. I put in the same card I mostly use. I was in a car and plug the iPhone to charger. I found that the phone became unusual warm during charge and most strange that it became warm near the sim-slot.
    I charged it for 100% and unplug. And I was wondered - the battery drained to 1% within 6 hours! It was a 15 hours drive so I had time. I charge the iPhone for 25% and was noticed then that discharge was about 1% every 3-4 minutes. AND! The sim slot still little bit warm.
    At home I take the SIM away and went to sleep with 55% of charge. After 6 hours of dreams I got 52% - about 0.5% per hour as usual.
    I put the SIM back but clean it (by ditry t-shirt honestly). And now the discharge is normal again and nothing warm.

    2 days battery back up with iphone 4S ??? looks like you don't even use your phone. but keep it for show off. well better sell it and buy a basic phone just to keep it with you and make 1 call per day.

  • Iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast

    iphone 4s battery draining extremly fast, how annoying is that, Battery will be drain out within 12 hrs and I just usually watch 30 mins video (not using 3G/wifi) and 10mins on Phone .
    I always turn off my Siri, Auto Detect Time Zone, 50% Brightness, NO background Apps are running and Mail is manually updated.
    Does anyone facing the same problem?

    Go to advanced and set icloud to manual I used to suffer from this because of icloud it was stuck in a loop and always draining the battery, try also resetting your network settings if it didn't work reset all settings and set it as a new phone drain the battery and charge it from 0 to 100% to recalibrate the battery , hope this works for you

  • ThinkPad E455 Excessive Battery Drains When Power Off

    I bought a new ThinkPad E455 two months ago with AMD processor and I use Windows 7 (64-bit) as my operating system. The problem is, since a week ago, when I turn off my laptop (completely shut-down, not hibernating nor sleeping), the battery looses 14% in less than 24 hours. This problem has never happened before. When I search for solution, apparently my problem is similar to https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/11e-Windows-E-and-Edge-series/E535-High-battery-drain-when-laptop-is-powered-off/ta-p/1249897 and https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/11e-Windows-E-and-Edge-series/E530-Battery-drains-and-power-manager-issue/ta-p/1249887 and https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/11e-Windows-E-and-Edge-series/E440-battery-drains-when-powered-off/m-p/1527086/highlight/true#M18743. It appears that the power drains happened in other type of ThinkPad as well. Moreover, it seems that this problem is not limited to ThinkPad series (e.g: http://www.tomsguide.com/answers/id-2324931/laptop-battery-drains-powered-shutdown.html), and more surprisingly, some of other brands experience this condition as well. My question is, what causes the power drain? I mean, the laptop just worked fine for a period of time (in my case it is two months), if it was trigerred by something, what is it? I looked for the technical updating BIOS solution in http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht077068, but unfortunately the series E455 is not in the list. Of course, updating the BIOS using incompatible version is not recommended by the technical support. Please help me.

    See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Configuration_and_Power_Interface When you think the laptop is powered off it's actually in ACPI Power State S5 with power being supplied to the power button and some of the USB sockets. So, when you shut down the laptop and then removed the power cord, if the BIOS version was lower than 1.13, the laptop was still draining the battery.I followed your suggestion, and it seems solving the problem, thank you. However, another problem arises just recently. When I was playing a game on my laptop, the battery capacity is decreasing when the AC power connected (as described by both lenovo and Windows battery gauge). I post this problem in https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/11e-Windows-E-and-Edge-series/ThinkPad-E455-Battery-Capacity-Reduced-When-Connected-to-AC/td-p/2106218. Oddly, the problem (seems) does not occur when I quit the game to windows. Why was this happen?

  • Lenovo notebook E540 Battery drains when it is not powered on

    Lenovo Notebook E540 battery drains when it is not powered on. My colleague said that there is a cloud connection being connected during power off and it consumes power. Is that possible? Any resolution?

    Hi Kingchechan,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    As far as I know only the Windows update will be accessing to the server, or might be any other 3rd party cloud related application, which might be accessing to the cloud server.
    Did you check disabling USB always on in BIOS & Wake On Lan from Windows AND BIOS
    Check running command powercfg /devicequery wake_armed to see if any device is programmed to power on the laptop might be this is consuming battery power.
    Best regards,
