My battery is running out VERY fast.

I took my computer to the Genius Bar at the Apple store and they couldn't find anything wrong with my computer. If it's not plugged into the charger it drops 5 or more percent with in a few minutes but it's not like I'm using something that requires a lot of power like netflix or something. It's happening when I'm working on a word document or on the internet. I have the display down super low too and that isn't helping either!

  • The battery in my iPod touch runs out very fast, why?

    My ipod's battery does not last very long. If I leave it unpluged for a half day it's already dead even though nothing seems to be running. It wasn't like this when I bought it in January this year and why is this happening? Is there anything I can check before I bring it back to the store? Thank you very much for your help!

    Try:
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - 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 bought my 15" macbook pro i7 just a year ago and my battery life runs out extremely quick..at fully charged it says I only have 2:27 of usage time. I didn't pay for that-what can I do about it? I do have Apple care. Thanks.

    I bought my 15" macbook pro just a year ago and my battery life runs out extremely quickly. This started maybe a month or two ago. Its hard to tell. I only noticed the rapid change recently. Fully charged it says I have 2:27 (2 hours and 27 minutes) of usage time...with about 50% screen and keyboard brightness.
    I've checked inside system preferences and its cycle count is 261 and full charging cap is 6316.
    I have apple care...is this something i can/need to take up with apple. You'd think if you pay the price for these machines you should get mroe use out of them.
    ONLY A YEAR I'VE HAD THIS!
    My PC lasted 4 years before the battery showed signs this dramatic of wear.
    Any help is appreciated, im  new mac owner. thanks.

    do you have a mbp with dual video cards? running the system with the higher end card increases the heat and also drains batt power.
    i have the 1st gen unibody (2008) with an original removable battery of 311 cycles and 4453 charge. under normal use ill be happy to get 1.5hrs. the mac battery counter thing says i have 3.3hrs though (whatever). compared to me, i think you use your battery more than i do, perhaps its the reason why it degraded so fast in a year?

  • MY NEW MACBOOK AIR IS HEATING UP AND ITS BATTERY IS DRAINING OUT REALLY FAST

    MY NEW MACBOOK AIR IS HEATING UP AND ITS BATTERY IS DRAINING OUT REALLY FAST. WHAT TO DO? I BOUGHT IT JUST 5 DAYS AGO.

    If you are within the 14 day purchase period you can exchange your MBP for a replacement.  If not you can have it checked out at the Apple store genius bar.
    CPU intensive applications will place stress on the CPU/GPU which will create heat and speed up the fans.  That is normal.  If you will, download from the Internet iStat pro and install it.  When your MBP gets hot, post an image such as this from mine:
    Also open Activity Monitor and set  to show 'All Processes' and '%CPU' to display values from high to low.  Post that as well like this:
    From this information we may be able to tell if there are any issues or not.
    Ciao.

  • How can i Downgrade from iOS 6 beta Firmware to iOS 5.1.1 iPhone 4 A4 . After I've upgraded my machine batteries run out very quickly, so I want to Downgrade, I don't have shsh blobs

    How can i Downgrade from iOS 6 beta Firmware to iOS 5.1.1 iPhone 4 A4 . After I've upgraded my machine batteries run out very quickly, so I want to Downgrade, I don't have shsh blobs

    There is no reason to be running beta software, I doubt it will even still run as iOS 6 has been officially released.  Or were you simply trying to be funny? 
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
