Is anyone else having battery problems?
I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 7 and up until about a week ago, life was perfect. My battery would last all day with normal usage and I would not have an issue. For the past week I have been having the problem of I would unplug it to leave for the day and about 15 min down the road it would already be at 85% and I haven't even touched it!!!
I don't have background apps refreshing and I don't have anything running on locations services that I don't absolutely need. WiFi is off and bluetooth is used in my car, but like i said, i've had that set up since I bought the phone and it's never been an issue.
The only difference i have noticed in my usuage is I am using iMessage more and more and people switch over to iPhones. But like i said I dropped about 15% battery life in roughly 15 minutes.
Is this a known apple issue with this latest update? I know some other updates had this issue.
Please help!
For me, it has battery drain since updating. Before I went to bed last night I charged the phone to 100%. When I woke up this morning, it was sitting at 81%.

Iphone 5 battery drains rapidly, I have turned off apps and location even purchased a new battery, is anyone else having this problem? If anyone knows how to fix please let me know. I've tried the hard reset and nothing works.
There was a run of bad batteries for the iPhone 5. Apple will replace them if your phone qualifies and you haven't tried to fix it yourself. See: iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program - Apple Support. Unfortunately, you may have disqualified yourself if you tried to repair it yourself.
However, rapid battery drain is only rarely caused by a bad battery. A bad battery is usually diagnosed by a battery percentage that jumps randomly. See this for advice: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain -
Whenever I ask Siri to send a message to a contact, it will attempt to send it as an iMessage. This is a problem because it will attempt to send iMessages to contacts of mine which aren't even iPhone numbers. Is anyone else having this problem?
So, this is a problem because when Siri attempts to send iMessages to those without iPhones it, of course, fails.
For example, if I say to Siri, "Tell my mother 'Hello.'" It will try to send an iMessage. My mother has an Android phone, so the iMessage just gets lost in cyberspace.
I use Siri quite often, this problem only occured about two hours ago.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks.
ThomasI had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.

Is anyone else having this problem? I usually attach photos from my existing camera roll when sending ecards, suddenly starting yesterday, all my photos are being rotated and coming up sideways! I use Blue Mountain.com for my ecards. I called their tech support line, they accessed my account and say they can do it no problem. It is my iPads problem!?? Any help out there. Please no tech speak; basic English only I am a newbie. Thanks for any help provided.

Anyone else having battery issues since updating to iOS 7?
After updating my iPhone 4S to iOS7, I noticed a horrible drain on my battery! From 100% to 62% in less than two hours... I have tried shutting off Bluetooth and even disabling refreshing background apps, and have my screen brightness set at less than 45% but it is still draining fast... Is anyone else having this problem and does anyone have any idea why?
Okay it seems I was right.
After I originaly posted here I unplugged my phone and let it drain to about 30% before charging it back up to full. I went home and my 5 year old son and I played on it, including an pretty memory intensive human anatomy app for kids -- sometimges plugged in, sometimes not. Used it A LOT last night, playing with settings, cheking out the new auto update feature, notifications, etc. I didn't end up turning any of the new features off in settings, and even enabled a few new features. Then, as usual, I plugged it in when I went to bed and let it run a clock/alarm program (Rise) all night.
This morning I drove to work (about 20 minutes) with turn-by-turn navigation running and a podcast playing in the background -- not plugged in to power. When I got to work the battery showed 98%. Leaving the phone unplugged, I have been playing that video podast for half an hour -- with a pause for a phone call set up by Siri -- and battery is currently showing 93%.
I think it's going to be okay. Everybody breathe. -
I just bought a white iphone 4s, i noticed that the glass doesnt align with the speaker its a little off, anyone else having this problem?
It should work fine with Version 1.2 and Itunes 7.0 or later.
Check the battery charge--- Make sure it’s OK
No need to keep running the battery down..?
Do a manual Reset on IPOD--by selecting
Menu and Center simultaneously, for about 6 seconds.
You may have to do this several times.
re-try IPOD
Make sure your Windows software is up-to-date.
Make sure your running the correct software version for your IPOD.
If this doesn’t’ work---
Do the 5 R’s as instructed in the Apples manual.

My iphone 4s voice dictiation for text messages is not consistently working. I've had the phone since Thanksgiving and it always worked perfectly, but the last few weeks it's been hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Anyone else having this problem? I tried the hard reset but that hasn't fixed it.
I have the same problem since updating to IOS 8.3. Any app to which I want to send a new link via IMessage does not allow me to select a contact to send the IMessage to. Using a pre-existing thread does not have same problem.

Anyone else having a problem with HyperSpaces in Lion?
Anyone else having a problem with HyperSpaces in Lion? It keeps taking the focus of all windows but doesn't actually open.
Thanks for posting this!! I was getting crazy with the focus being stolen all the time and I could not the source of the problem anywhere.
So yes, I have the same problem, had to remove hyperspace. I use a MacBook Pro. -
My MacBook Pro (purchased in 2011) is taking 10 minutes to boot-up. It's also taking much longer to open files. I have 650 GB out of 700 GB left on my machine so it's not that I've overloaded the memory. Is anyone else having this problem?
Look at this comprehensive trouble shooting document;
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
I suggest that you start with SMC and PRAM resets.
Then a Safe Boot.

Firefox is crashing every time I have my MSN email account up. (Since I use it for business, that's many times per day.) It seems to coincide with hotmail's latest update where the email is checked and downloaded to the inbox automatically. Then when it asks me if I want to send the crash report to Firefox, I select yes and it tells me it had trouble sending the report. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a setting I can change? I can't seem to keep my email account up for more than 10 minutes.
p.s if you're reading this Microsoft, it's still not bad enough to make me to go back to Internet Explorer!Hi,

Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
Restart your Mac.
That's why you see this:
When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
After your restart your Mac, click the Apple menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...

Apps not automatically updating in iOS 7.1.2. Is anyone else having similar problems?
I have an iPhone 5s, iPad 3, and iPod, but a couple of days ago, my apps quit auto-updating. All devices have iOS 7.1.2. Anyone else having this problem, and is it related to the new release of iOS 8?
It could be. I'd imagine that the servers are swamped with millions of gig plus iOS8 downloads, and now today millions of iPhone activations and people trying to get apps for their new phone. It could be that auto updates were suspended due to traffic, or may just be overwhelmed by traffic.
I would give it a week. If it's still not working then then dig into it and see if something could be wrong. -
Anyone else having WiFi problems with the IPod Touch 5th Generation?
I upgraded my old IPod Touch 3rd Generation to a 5th Generation yesterday. I've noticed however that for some reason the wi-fi connection on the 5th Generation drops off all of a sudden for no reason at all and I can't figure out why. Anyone else having similar problems? If so what did you do?
Does the iPod connect OK to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect OK?
Did the iPod connect before?
If only your network then it could be a problem with your network
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I have downloaded the new iTunes 10.7 on my computer with windows vista on it. Now every time I try to run a video it shuts off iTunes. Is anyone else having this problem? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program twice. Is there a fix? Is it possible I am missing part of the program?
I'd start with the following user tip:
