  • My iPod Touch 5th generation battery drains extremely fast.

    I have a iPod Touch 5th generation, with iOS 8.0.2 and the battery life goes down in less than 15 minutes. I have experienced this since I first bought it, which was 10 months ago. My brother and sister just bought the same iPod as me but in different colors. My brother used his iPod Touch for 1 and a half hours, and it looked like the battery was barely used. I am not sure if this is a problem with my device, because this happened with my dad's iPhone 5 as well. Maybe it is the older models. Does anyone have a solution to this, or ways to save my battery?

  • IPod touch 5th generation battery drained and restored after app is closed

    I got my iPod Touch 5th generation about a year ago. I noticed it has since had an issue on the battery life that I thought was common so I did not do anything about it.
    The issue my iPod has is that whenever I use an app that requires immense energy to function, the battery drains real quick. But after I closed the app, the battery life fills up again like it has only used a little.  Video recording especially drains the battery the most where after 10 minutes of recording, it pops up saying 20% battery left from fully charged and at one point it even shuts down itself. But when it was turned on, the battery life is still around 75%. Before it runs on iOS 8, the issue is more apparent although it still exist now with the latest update.
    I did not know until just recently that I found out it is a big issue where I could not have a video recording that can last longer than 10 minutes or so. Is there anything I could do to solve this? Are there anyone else out there that has this sort of issue?

    Hey Leowjowee-
    I'm really sorry if I'm about to state the obvious, but have you tried fully resetting the iPod touch and setting it up like it's brand new?
    It's a crappy answer, but sometimes these are device specific issues, and other times, it can happen just because the kinks haven't been worked out of a new upgrade. I work in consumer IT, and the first thing I would suggest to a client with this issue (especially after an upgrade from one version of the operating system to another), would be to restore (reset the iPod to factory specs) the iPod touch, set it up like the day I bought it, only with the upgraded operating system, and see if there's still an issue. Sometimes, doing an upgrade like you probably did to get from iOS 7 to iOS 8, where it keeps all your previous settings from the last operating system, can cause bugs in the new code.
    Here's instructions for a reset: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252
    Keep in mind that this will completely erase any content you have on the iPod touch, so be careful to make sure you have a backup of the device before you do anything. You can back up your device to iCloud or your computer with these instructions:  http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203977
    iOS 8 is brand new, and I'm sure Apple is working out the bugs - but these things happen...

  • My iPod touch 5th generation battery indicator does not update when being charged (Updated to iOS 8)

    Note that the iPod touch 5th generation was updated to iOS 8. When I connect my charger to my iPod touch, for the first time, the battery indicator does not update when connected to a power source. Instead of being charged, it says that the battery is being depleted. Please fix this issue. Thank you!

  • IPod Touch 5th generation battery on ios 7

    I have a iPod touch 5th generation (space grey it came with ios 7) and I was just wondering what the average battery life is. Mine seems to be setting the trend of 4-4 1/2 hours (playing games), and about 7 hours using music, streaming, and browsing. Is this about the average?

    Sounds about right. What I have seen is this... on standby the battery will go for days, provided you never use the fool thing, just leave it on. Listening to music from you library with the screen mostly off and wifi and Bluetooth turned off, easily 20 plus hours. BUT, start streaming, gaming (gaming really ***** the power), browsing, anything that keeps the screen on and in motion or keeps your iPod looking for a signal...  a few hours between charges is all you get! I always have a charger nearby. Good luck.

  • Ipod touch 5th generation battery screen with lightning bolt locked cannot charge or restart.  ive tried everything from new cables attempting to shut down but stays at screen for a few seconds then black screen again over and over

    screen locked up and shows the battery with low red and ligtning bolt and cannot hard shut down or reset just stays there for a few seconds then black screen. hooked up to computer and itunes doesnt recognize it or even shows that it is pluged in.  looked and made sure nothing is broken or metal in ligting port or on cable which would prevent it from accepting a charge. ipod is only a month old and seems like a waste of money if its so hard to try to get an explanation of why this is ive been tryning to get an answer from apple for a week now.

  • Why does my IPod touch 5th generation battery drain quickly? Is this a defect?

    My battery seems to drain in about 3 hrs or less when I play a game, listen to music, etc( when it's fully charged too) and I'm not even using the Internet . Please help me, if this is a defect then I'll return it to apple and get another one.

    Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon.  The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
    Use an Apple wall-mount charger and charge overnight.  Do NOT use a computer USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  I don't play games but I expect that you'll get six to eight hours.  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the exact procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
    I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem.  I am stating, however, that we don't yet know whether or not a battery problem exists.
    According to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

  • How come all of a sudden my iPod touch 5th generation battery is dying so fast?

    I'm very picky on how I charge my battery because I don't want to complete kill my battery. But all of a sudden my battery is dying fast. Overnight, it kills about 30 percent with no apps open. It used to last all day but now it doesn't even last half the day

  • Ipod touch 5th generation update iOS 8 Battery Life

    I have recently upgraded to iOS 8 about three days ago and my battery charging time has become longer. It now takes a couple of hours to charge from 20% to 40-50%. It now takes forever to change the battery from red to green. I use to be able to see the difference in color in about 15 to 20 minutes. Also, when I plug in my ipod at 50% battery life, I go back to check on it and the battery is less than 20% even thought it was 50% and plugged in. The amount of battery at the top of the battery does not seem to increase even when plugged in. Should I take my ipod to Best Buy or an Apple store? or could I fix it myself or possibly wait until a new update happens? Anything on tips or directions will be greatly appreciated to fix this! Thanks!

    I had an ipod touch 5th generation. I plugged it in at 18% and checked back 5 hours later, 47%. I checked six hours after that and it said 96%. I was looking at it and wondering why it was doing that and i noticed a cosmetic issue i haven't seen before on this model, it BENT. I went to an apple store, explaned the the problem, and since I had it for less than a year, they replaced it for free. I was running IOS 8 and then 8.0.2. I never had a charge problem with ios 7 so the one I got from the store came with 7.1.1. I believe the battery was swollen.

  • Ipod touch 5th generation drained for 4-5 hours

    hello guys
    i just wanna ask something >> my  IPOD TOUCH 5TH GENERATION was drained for about 4-5 hours and now that i charge it,its not working at all but it show's the battery percentage (it show's red thing)
    what should i do?
    go to apple store for the warranty?
    wait for it to charge?
    OR ,connect it to itunes?

    Hey Leewenramos, Try to charge it, the "red thing", is your battery icon, it's telling you-- you're out of charge. Try to charge for 30 minutes and then attempt to use, if it does not charge, inspect the charging port on your iPod, your looking for lint or foreign debris in the port that could be preventing you from charging, also try another cable, the one you're using may have failed, developed a short. The lighting cables have a history of failing / shorting out, Apple will replace if within 1 year of purchase date and failure is do to manufacture fault. And if possible try a different charging device with a new cable. You could also attempt a soft reset, Press and hold the power and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears, about 10 seconds, then release both buttons. (If you had some signs of life you could try a hard reset, Settings>General>Reset then tap Reset All Settings or connecting iTunes and do a restore, just make sure you make backups before you restore or you will loose data / info stored on this iPod, but if your iPod will not power on that is not an option.) If none of the above work, contact your Apple store and schedule an appointment to have your iPod evaluated, make sure to bring the iPod and cable and charging device if possible. Good luck. Cheers.

  • My brand-new iPod touch (5th Gen) battery takes a very long time to fully charge, even while not in use. Why is this and what should I do?

    Just recently bought a brand-new iPod touch, 5th generation. To be exact, got it two days ago, this past Saturday, on 12/13/2014. Initially, when I first turned it on, it had a fully charge and I didn't need to charge it. I also didn't see anything in the very small and limited start-up guide you receive with it to charge it for a certain amount of time before use, or to use it until the battery dies, then charge all the way, like a lot of electronic devices have you do when you first purchase them.
    So I was assuming I didn't need to do anything like that. First question, should I have charged it for a period of time before use? Should I have used it until the battery died, then plugged it in and charged it fully before use? Or is none of this necessary initially and iPod batteries are good to go from the start?
    Please excuse me if this is an obvious question, as this is my first ever iPod. Anyways,like I said, nothing in the "instructions" said anything about that, so I didn't do it, I just used it until it got below 20% battery left, then I plugged it in.
    Now for the battery itself, it takes literally a day or so to fully charge, even while not in use. Even if I use it for a while, turn off the iPod to make sure it shuts off all background data and apps, and then plug it in to charge, it still charges extremely slowly. I've never seen a device take this long to charge. As for the battery life itself, I'd say at full charge it lasts about 4-5 hrs, maybe 6, and then I have to charge it again. Meanwhile it takes around 24 hours, without me using it, to fully charge. If I use it while its charging, the battery decreases faster than it charges, and eventually I'll get the typical "20% battery remaining" message pop up.
    I know it is charging, as the lightning symbol is next to the battery symbol. Specifically, right now, I plugged it in about 1 hr 30 minutes ago, and it has barely gone up. Also, whenever I press the home button to check the battery, I can see it jump down from about 50% to somewhere around 25%-30%. What is that about?
    This is really frustrating, and I'm seriously contemplating either taking it back and trying my luck with a different iPod, or just taking it back and getting my money back. Any help and clarification on this matter would be greatly appreciated, and I'll answer any questions I can to shed more light on this.

    It will take longer to charge the 5G's battery than either the 3G or 4G's battery.

  • IPod Touch 5th Generation won't boot?

    I have an iPod Touch 5th Generation. Recently, I plugged it in to charge overnight, and upon awakening it was turned off. It booted fine then, but took longer than usual. The same thing happened even more recently, but now it will not boot. Instead, it remains at the apple logo for over 8 hours. I have tried a hard reboot already. I am able to enter both DFU mode and recovery mode, but they are both recognized by iTunes as recovery mode. I know it must be in DFU mode because the screen is black.. My most recent backup was to my laptop but is EXTREMELY outdated, and it got corrupted. Is there a way to make an encrypted backup while the device is in either DFU or recovery mode? I refuse to restore the device as I would lose over $5,000 worth of information. Any solutions? I am running iOS 7.0.4 and am unaware of any update-- if there is one let me know. My device is NOT jailbroken, but I think the warranty expired a few days ago- ironically just before this happened. Nice timing.

    I plugged it in to charge this morning while it was in recovery mode. I just came home to see it in the reboot loop again. I have unplugged it and did the following:
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Once the Apple logo showed up, I plugged it in to my computer and waited for iTunes to recognize the device for about 15 minutes. Nothing happened, so I could not backup the device.
    Since it has a full charge, I would estimate it to take many hours to discharge completely. By "discharge completely", do you mean to drain it to the point where the internal clock stops functioning? I have done this on my iPhone 3G many times, and it fixes most errors. I intend to drain it past the "low battery" image that shows when attempting to turn on the device.

  • My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?

    Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.
