IPhone 6+ won't go to sleep after using Apple Watch App

I noticed that since I own the Apple Watch my iPhone 6+ battery drains very quick. Currently "Home & Lock Screen" and "TuneIn Radio" are using the most battery (although I force-killed all apps). Another thing I noticed is that my iPhone won't go to sleep after the configured 2 minutes. It just stays on sucking on the battery.
After I restart the iPhone everything is back to normal. I believe the problems start the moment I launch the Apple Watch App on the iPhone.
Will do some tests...

I'm having the same issue even after the 8.1.3 update. It's not from my carrier because I used a different carrier and noticed the same issue.
My short term fix has been putting my phone on airplane mode then off.
If any one knows a solution, please let me know.
Thank you.

Phone won't go to sleep after ios7 update

My phone won't go to sleep after the ios 7 update unless it is on auto lock which I do not want it on. Can anyone help me with this problem?

could you fix the problem? I have set mine to all the different time restrictions for it to sleep, and it isnt happening. Consequently, my iphone has been overheating at night when I dont manually put it to sleep. By now Im thinking the battery life has been diminished since it is not lasting as long as when it was brand new (iphones 5s)

Mac screen won't dim, mac won't go to sleep after VNC connection (ARDAgent)

I can't seem to figure this out. Have my mac configured to auto dim and sleep after 10 minutes. When I have used a VNC client to log on to my mac (via iphone or work PC) using different VNC clients the mac won't dim or sleep after 10 minutes.
After hours of trying to find the culprit it seems to be the process ARDAgent. When I force quit this process the mac will dim and sleep as usual. I tried different VNC clients but the problem seems to be on the mac end. Only a force quit or disabling screen sharing from the settings.app seem to help.
Anyone any idea how to fix this?

Hi,
same problem with my iMac ... I even did a clean install - it didn't help.
PLEASE APPLE FOLKS - FIX THIS !

How do I exactly use Apple Watch with iPhone?

In iOS 8.2's Apple Watch app, the iPhone must be connected to Wifi or Cellular Data and Bluetooth. They must be connected to pair with the Watch. Lets say I've paired the Watch. If I disconnect the Wifi or Cellular Data, will the Apple Watch stop pairing?
How ow will I get phone calls and messages on the Watch?

Remove Apple Watch app from iPhone

I just updated my iPhone 5 to IOS 8.2. For some reason I now have an Apple Watch app on my phone. How do I remove it? I don't intend to ever purchase an Apple Watch. Why on earth would Apple automatically install something like this on a phone?

This app is part of the Apple default software and can't be removed. However, most users put it into a separate folder, just like the other apps that they don't want to have on the screen.
You may give Apple some feedback about that, if you think that there should be a possibility to do that:

Can you use apple watch without pairing to iphone?

can you use apple watch without pairing to iphone?

Essentially no. Your watch has to connect to an iphone to be of any use.
Once you do pair your watch and phone and you are in a known wifi area, you can turn off Bluetooth and your watch SHOULD connect directly with wifi. I've found it doesn't always connect.
As of right now my bluetooth on the phone is OFF and I'm on wifi and can get notifications, play games, imessages, check instagram, etc etc.

IPhone still won't go to sleep

I updated to ios7. iPhone won't go to sleep. Asked this question here & got instructions to restart, reboot, and make sure something was checked in settings. Did all that. iPhone STILL WIDE AWAKE and draining its battery. So. Now what?

I had the same problem. Slept fine with 10.3.9 and somewhere along the Tiger chain of updates it refused to sleep or would wake from sleep almost immediately.
After a ton of research and trying different things, here's what I've found. I should mention the Quicksilver has a dual processor upgrade, a usb 2 card, an M-Audio sound card (junk) and a fw 800 card. So, there's lot's to go wrong.
Apple's sleep is a mild sleep. To get it to sleep you have to execute a command to have it "safe sleep". Your G4 will likely need to be configured to "safe sleep". Go here http://www.jackoverfull.altervista.org/applicazioni/suspendnow/index-en.html All the scripts are there to configure and a script to run. Read the instructions in the read-me file. They are well written, succinct and simple. I keep a shortcut to SuspendNow! on the task bar. When I leave the computer I double click it, press enter and voila, sleep.
Don't be tempted to place the app in Utilities, it needs to be in Applications.
Another approach is NMS Sleep Assist. http://slicedapple.ath.cx/nmsutility.html The instructions are poor. I tried to get this to work under the many approachs available in the program and finally ended up using "Dependent Mode" (not ESI), setting up appropriate sleep holds and setting Apple's sleep to "never". Dependent mode replaces Apple's sleep and it works for me.
I run both SuspendNow! and NMS. I need NMS if I'm downloading and want to walk away. After the download's complete, plus my 5 minute time setting, the G4 sleeps.
There's a ton of sleep apps and widgets out there. I can honestly say I tried them all and these are the only two that worked for me. Chasing hardware issues is a waste of time.

My Iphone 4 won't connect to Itunes after update on Itunes?

Iphone 3g won't sync in Itunes after 3.0 update

Hello everyone,
I updated to OS 3.0 on Wednesday, and had no issues with the installation. I just came to work, placed my iphone 3g on the dock, and iTunes gave me the spinning wheel. The iphone is recognized briefly in Itunes, but doesn't sync. I have to wait about 1.5 minutes for itunes to respond. The iphone then disappears from the itunes sidebar.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue?

Let me rephrase that
If I have a current backup of my iphone saved on my Macbook Pro. Will all of my apps, including their settings, layout on screens, remain intact after I restore the iphone, and then restore from backup?

Won't wake from sleep after listening to audiobook

If my ipod goes to sleep after I've been listening to an audiobook, I can't wake it again, and have to restart it. It always works again fine after I restart it, until it goes to sleep again. I only have this problem if I've played an audiobook since the last time I restarted, even if I then played music tracks after the audiobook. If I restart it and only listen to music, it will wake up just fine every time. As far as I can tell from playing around with it, this only happens if it goes to sleep on it's own, not if I put it to sleep. Everything else works just fine, but it's really annoying to have to restart everytime I let it sleep during a book! Also, if I have to restart it, when I go back to my audiobook it will no longer remember the track position. But if I go play some music, let it go to sleep, wake it up, and then go back to the audiobook, it will remember the position again! I am totally stumped on this, I have never had anything this weird happen with my ipod, and I've had it for around 2 1/2 years. I have the latest version of iTunes and the lastest version of the ipod software.

I think I may have found the fix for this. My MacBook Pro was dying in its sleep every time (after installing Snow Leopard), whether it went to sleep automatically or I used a Hot Corner. I went into System Preferences>Desktop & Screen Saver and changed the screen saver to Flurry, and it works now. I had had it set to a folder containing a single .pct file that I had created.
Good advice Mike! When in doubt check the ScreenSaver settings.
Definitely seems that it has a problem with that pic... In my case, selecting any images instead of the default setting (no screensaver) seems to have cured my non waking issue on my early Macbook Pro in Snow Leopard.
My original problem was that no amount of trackpad input woke it, but the space bar did. The space bar seemed to wake it up with the previous Screen Saver setting. Now trackpad wakes it up (even from total sleep as well as screen saver), too. Might be nice to know about if this is an intended 'feature' as a security trick. Otherwise I consider this a bug.
My vote is that it's a bug.

On battery MBP won't go to sleep after being inactive for 5 minutes

Okay so in energy saver under system preferences, I have it setup so that the computer should go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity when running on battery power. However multiple times I have left teh computer on battery only to come back in a few hours and the MBP was still on and not sleeping. I had itunes and safari open, but itunes wasn't playing any music. What does it take for the computer to be "inactive". Do I have to close all of my applications?

I have had similar issues with this. Seems the:
Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
Gets corrupted and must be trashed, reboot reset PRAM and reset your power management settings.
I hope this helps.

Lion won't go to sleep after idle timeout

Hello all. Just a quick question: I've just configured "computer sleep" timeout to 5 minutes in Energy Saver preferences but it looks like there is something wrong with it and my MBP is not going to sleep after timeout. On the other hand screen is correctly going to sleep. I've also tried login out and in and leaving system running without any app.
Any clue? Or is that just me missing something?
Thank you,
William

Ok I've been researching and dealing with this problem for a few weeks now. I've read all the forums and tried all the recommended fixes. I'll list all that I did in the order that I did them. The sleep problem is fixed for me now. There are a few things in here that I never saw suggested, especially the last one. But first of all I have an Intel 27" iMac i7. Purchased new in Sept 2011. Love the machine, best Mac I've ever owned. I have 5 of them. I loaded it from my 2006 Intel 24" iMac, using Migration Assistant while running snow leopard. Soon after that I loaded Lion, sometime after that I started noticing the lack of sleep issues. It started out that it wouldn't auto sleep, but I would just sleep the machine using the power button or the Apple menu. About 3 weeks ago even those would not sleep the machine. Below is my process for hunting down this little bug. Between each of these a reboot and sleep test was performed.
1. Make sure everything is up to date.
2. Loaded a piece of freeware called PleaseSleep, worked for a while but then stopped working when the hardware buttons wouldn't work.
3. Unplugged all peripherals, turned off wifi
4. Turned off all sharing preferences
5. Plugged on an old USB mouse and turned off Bluetooth, including settings that allow Bluetooth to wake computer
6. Reboot into Safe Mode
7. Called apple support and performed a hard reset of the whole system, Shutdown Machine>Unplug From back of machine>Hold power button for 10 seconds>Plug back in>Startup.
8. Created a Spare User account in order to test a blank or default set of user preferences.
9. Downloaded the 10.7.3 Combo Updater and reinstalled the Lion updates.
10. Switched into the Guest user account. Tested sleep (Success!!!!!!!) Rebooted back to normal Tested Sleep (Success!!!!!!)
I'm not willing to say that just #10 was the one and only answer. At this point I haven't turned on wake from Bluetooth yet. It will auto sleep and sleep from menu or by pushing power button, but to wake I'm pushing the power button. I do have all my Bluetooth peripherals back connected.
Hope that helps someone.

MacBook Pro Early 2008 won't go to sleep after upgrade to Mavericks

I have a MacBook Pro that is of the Early 2008 variety. Ever since I upgraded to OS X Mavericks two nights ago, it will no longer go to sleep. This is with me using either the power button or directly selecting sleep from the Apple menu. All that happens is it blanks the screen. If I hit a key it turns the screen on and asks for password. With screen off I can definitely hear the fans and harddrive still in operation. I have to shut down to make it turn off. How to fix this??

As soon as you wake up your display, launch Terminal from your Applications > Utilites folder and enter the following command.
pmset -g
in the resulting text, is there a reason next to sleep that says what activity is preventing it from sleeping?
eg:
sleep 20 (sleep prevented by mds, UserEventAgent)
Then in System Prefernces > Energy Saver, does clicking on Restore Defaults resolve the issue?
(This will reset any preset settings, but it may also clear the issue for you)

How do I keep my iPhone or ipad from going to sleep while using airplay to my Apple TV ?, How do I keep my iPhone or ipad from going to sleep while using airplay to my Apple TV ?

With airplay on, how to keep ipad from going to sleep? Same with my iPhone, with airplay steaming to my Apple TV, the phone or ipad will go to sleep. Settings?
Advice welcome.
Thank you for your time, Eric

Yes, that is happening because of the app. Not all apps behave this way. For example, if you use the youTube app with AirPlay the screen will turn off but AirPlay continues. If you use the Netflix app the screen will not turn off and, of course, AirPlay continues.
The best course with the NCAA app would appear to be to supply power to the iPad and set Autolock to never. Turn the iPad screen intensity down.
