IPhone battery impact from streaming while on a dock

If I stream music from my 100% charged phone while it's on a connected charging dock, am I using my battery or the dock's power? If it's using the battery and constantly recharging at the same time how does this relate to battery life being determined by full charging cycles?

If you are using a charging dock, and your phone is fully charged, it will stop charging. If you are using the battery, then the dock will charge the phone. In essence, it is constantly recharging. As with the battery life being determined by full charging cycles, I am not quite sure what you mean. If you mean the cycles the battery does in its lifetime, one full cycle is draining your battery from 100% to 0%, then charging it fully again. Charging it 1% of the time is not technically a full cycle, though some third-party software applications see it is one. It should not effect your battery more than just regular, everyday use in the long run.

  • My iphone battery goes from 90% to 1% in 10-15 min  sometimes even without using it

    My iphone battery goes from 90% to 1% very quickly sometimes in 10-15min, sometimes even if im not using my phone!
    I may have 50% left at times and the phone will shut down and I won't be able to turn it in again until I charge it. When i charge it it turns back on with 50% battery! I don't get it.
    I tried doing a reset and it didmnt help.
    please help!
    thanks

    It sounds as if a process is locked. Since the reset did not work, then try a restore. First restore from a backup, and if that does not work, then restore as new. If a restore as new does not work, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar or Authorized Apple Service provider, depending on your location, and have the hardware checked.

  • I stream video/audio from my iPhone to AppleTV and it works fine. I want to use headphones on the iPhone so I can stream the video and listen on the headphones, but Airplay will not allow me to select both AppleTV and headphones, I can only select one.

    I stream video/audio from my iPhone to AppleTV (like YouTube) and it works fine. I want to use headphones on the iPhone so I can stream the video to AppleTV and listen on the headphones, but Airplay will not allow me to select both AppleTV and headphones, I can only select one. How can I watch AppleTV and listen on the headphones?
    Thank you.

    have the same problem. Im using iPad 3 and Apple TV. id like to use the ipad as wireless earphones while i watch the video on the tv. is that even possible?

    Thanking you.

    1.  you may have to take it in to Apple and get an out of warranty iphone for $199.
    2.  you can get your information from a backup of your phone.  you do have a backup of your phone right either in iTunes or icloud.  If you don't then your answer will be no.

  • How do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s

    how do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s?

    Basel,
    I'm not sure why these folks are having trouble understanding your request. I will dumb it down for them. Is there an option to have the iPhone only provide me with notifications when I'm not on the phone. Having my $800ish phone buzz and interrupt my phone conversation (after all primary function of this iPhone is being a phone) to let me know one of my Facebook friends has challenged me to a game of words with friends. I don't want my iPhone to not notify me at all. It can notify me after the call (again primary function) is complete. Going through menus and turning off notifications all together is absolutely silly. I wouldn't want to have to navigate through the menus and turn them off and then on an then off just to make or receive a phone call. Could you imagine answering you phone with, "hey, just wait I have to turn my notifications off so I can have this conversation." every time you wanted to talk on the phone.
    So yeah. Again not sure why they were having trouble with understanding you. I hope this helps clarify it for them.

    Can I still use the phone in Boston when I move there?
    Only on a supported GSM carrier.
    Will there be networks I cant use?
    Yes. CDMA networks.
    As I understand it the 4S supports GSM and CDMA networks worldwide.
    No, you've misunderstood. The GSM iPhone you can buy in Ireland supports GSM networks only i.e. AT&T

    My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router.  Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right?  Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

  • HT4528 I can't seem to sync my iPhone with iTunes.  I keep getting this message:  iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device.  What can I do?

    I can't seem to sync my iPhone to my computer; I keep getting this message:  "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device."  I get the same message with my iPad, even though they all share the same account.  What can I do?

    This could be caused by a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to the Mac using the USB cable it came with. Also, try disconnecting all other USB devices.
    If you haven't already try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. And then reboot your computer.
    See if that fixes your problem.

    My iPhone overheats. Battery drops from 100/90% to 10% sudenly. Got the device 20 days ago. I'm currently living in The Hague, there is no Apple Store in this city, took an appointment in Amsterdam, after 3 hours drive and 60€ travel cost got into the Apple Store, 73 minutes delay on my appointment the Genius  tech tells me I should leave my device for further checks in the store and come back in a week or two. Not presicely the answer I was looking for, plus he did not have any device to lend me until my iPhone was checked. Quite dissapointed, Apple was standard for quality on customer satisfaction, in the last 10 years I bought 3 MacBooks, 5 iPdas, 7 iPods, 5 iPhones and 2 iMACs... please don't let me down.

    Dear Ocean, one is a complaint about the quality of the device.
    The second about the quality on response from Customer Service.
    No worries, I'll delete both post since it seems that won't bring anything productive.
    Good bye Apple!
