Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing. If battery is faulty that solves it.

My iPhone 5 will not turn on. And when it does, it will only stay on for a short while and then it dies again.
Hi lammyrock,
I want to let you know to be patient as this troubleshooting can take some time depending on many different. First try putting your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. To do that, you can that by making sure that your iPhone is turned off, hold the Home button down while it is plugged into iTunes. You should get the graphic on your iPhone to plug it into iTunes and iTunes should prompt you to restore it. Once that is done and if you have a back up in iTunes or in iCloud, then you can put that back on after the restore is complete. Take a look at the article below for more information to help you.

Any suggestions.

PHi pakala2022,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the iPhone is not charging past 48%. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Droid X battery will not stay charged for more than 5 minutes. Help
My Droid X will not hold a charge for more than 5 min. 1 phone call and the phone shuts down.
bdsutton,
Thanks so much for your inquiry! There hasn't been a software update for the Droid X since 2/16/12.
I would like for you to put the device in Safe Mode http://bit.ly/OAXCYh and then check your email to see if it still turns off.
Safe Mode temporarily disables all applications that have been installed via the Android Market. Performing this troubleshooting step is necessary to determine whether a 3rd party application is the cause of an Operating System / Application issue.
I want you to try that to see if there is something else affecting why the phone battery goes low only when you check email.

Ipod shuffle is a couple of years old but not used frequently. No linger holds a charge for more than three hours. Anything I can do to fix that?
Hey Lojolo,
Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines the steps to accurately test your iPod’s battery life, as well as the expected battery life times:

Once you have completed these steps, check out the following section:
If your test indicates that your iPod battery's playback time is significantly less than the times stated above, try these tips and tricks to get the most out of your iPod battery. Then test again.
If you still feel that you are getting significantly less than the expected amount of play from the battery, you can arrange for service on the iPod Service Request site. When you request service, we will ask you for your results of this test.

I am unable to access my iBooks library from my iPad through the iBooks App. Recent changes to the app says I require IOS 5.0 which I don't have because I have the original IOS that came with my iPad (the original released version) I have an extensive library that I cannot access. What do I do?

Why do you think you cannot upgrade to iOS 5? That should work fine. iOS 6 is not possible for iPad 1. -

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

Why is my iPhone 4s stuck on 8% battery and why will it not restart for 12 hours when it dies?
I've had my iPhone 4s for almost 2 years now and the only thing I've had done was my battery and charging port replaced about 9 months ago.About a month ago, I noticed the battery indicator was jumping around when I looked at it, then it just stayed stuck on 26% until it I accidently let it die one day. I tried to plug it in to several chargers, but it kept flashing the apple symbol and going black. I tried a charger with a 2.1amp plug in and discovered that the phone turned on, but it will only stay on for 5 minutes or so then it freezes and dies, also, every time it turns back on it shows the correct battery % for that time. So when I leave it plugged in for about 12 hours(possibly when it gets over 50% charged?), it will stay on and I've been using it like that for a month, without the proper battery indication and only able to charge on one specific charger. It's a 16gig, so it's close to full and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. People have said it may be the battery or some kind of ground that is missing, but I really don't know. Any advice?
I have this same issue... the phone was fine, then 3 days ago then I noticed it was draining itself whilst on charge. Now it charges to 1% and lasts all day on that unless I reboot, then it just says plug it in and wont reboot! I have had a 100% charge, but it drained down to 9% in under an hour and then stayed at 9% all day. This is obviously an issue, so why is Apple not sorting it out?
Also, these kind of comments (BELOW) are about as useful as, "is it plugged in?"
"diesel vdub Atlanta, GA
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore.
Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved."
I have tried 3 cables, 2 wall chargers and 2 docks, so it has nothing to do with those. I have cleaned the connections, so it's not dirt. It isn't water damage as the phone has been nowhere near water. -
I can start my iPod but it will only stay on the Apple icon screen for 5 minutes and then shuts off, what do I do to fix this problem?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

my iPad 1 won't hold a charge for very long and will only fully charge when turned off while plugged in. Will a full reset fix this?
maybe but
most likely no
if you have many apps running and using data and localization at the same time yes maybe
but batteries get worse and worse and worse over time until they die a software reset will not change that -
My Ipod 4g will not stay charged. He charges it to show full battery
My sons Ipod 4g will not stay charged. He charges it to show full battery & will only work for 20 mins or so. I have tried resetting the whole Ipod, we have tried a wall charger instead of computer charger, he has removed items off thinking they were to much for the Ipod. Nothing works.....
If you successfully (went through all steps without errors) restored the iPod to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I want to use my Apple watch to time my patients' vital signs. The watch face only stays displayed for about 7 seconds, which won't work. Can I change that?
Linda
I am glad that bbqdevil's *workaround* will "do the trick"
Did you give the Timer idea a try yet? It seems to me that you are really needing to know when a certain amount of time has elapsed rather than *time how long you have being taking a reading*. Will you always have your hand free to tap the Watch? If so, why would you need the StopWatch going? - just look again at the sweep second hand on the clock.
It still remains that one should be able to set the time elapsed before sleep on a Chronograph w/ sweep second WatchFace though. I have searched and searched, to no avail.
I would suggest Siri, but it seems like many issues with Siri are ongoing and might just add another problem to the mix.
If I were you, I would Call Apple Support. It is sometimes tricky to get that option in the "breadcrumb" process Apple has instituted, but I was able to test the process before suggesting this:
Click/Tap > https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action
Choose Apple Watch
Choose "Setup & Usage..."
Choose "The topic is not listed"
Enter "set sleep duration" > [Continue]
(I know this in not exactly right, but the point is to be vague)
Pick your poison - I would ONLY choose to talk with them on the phone
Rehearse an "elevator pitch" statement* for the Specialist that you get AND when you get no satisfaction (likely) ASK FOR A SUPERVISOR
I have NEVER gotten an answer from a Level 1 Specialist - they are reading from a Knowledge Base not unlike all the resources available to us online
I have ALWAYS gotten satisfaction from a Senior Specialist (sometimes pretty high up the chain - but always)
Here's a sample "elevator pitch" that I actually sent as Feedback on the Apple Watch User Guide page
I need to change the duration 'before' the Watch goes to sleep while observing the Chronograph Watch Face.
I am a healthcare provider. I need to use my Watch to assist me in taking vital signs. On a normal watch, I would start counting pulses or respirations at a 15 second interval on the Analog Chronograph sweep second hand > stop counting at the next 15 sec. interval > multiply X 4 to get rate/minute.
The Watch goes to sleep after SEVEN (7) seconds !! Therefore I cannot see when 15 seconds has elapsed. I use both hands regularly in the procedure, so touching the Watch is not an option - or 'raise the Watch' to my viewing position.
I, and others in the ASC forum have searched for a Setting for the before sleep duration in vain.
Let us know what you decide.
