  • I'm loosing too much battery life. All apps are closed.

    Hi,
    I'm loosing too much battery life and all apps are closed. Can you help?
    Thank you!

    Hello, mcnairkp. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Battery life can be difficult to troubleshoot as multiple factors contribute to how long a charge can last.  Graphic intensive applications, display brightness and data connectivity are just a few of the items that can cause the battery life to decrease rapidly.  I would need to know a little more information about your usage patterns to give you and idea on how to maximize battery life.  However, here are some tips on how to adjust settings and charge the device that may help.

  • HT4972 2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many of the Apps now available in the App store.  Is there any way to find out which apps will work with 2nd generat

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

  • Why doesnt ipod touch 5th gen have battery percentage like iphones?

    Why deosnt ipod touch 5th generation have battery percentage like iphone i just dont see the problem is it a problem because i think that would really come in handy.

       They could have but maybe the idea for the percentage meter was thought up after the original design for the iPod Touch hence why the design for the iPhone's design was slightly altered after the iPod Touch's design was put in to the engineering  process or maybe they just wanted it that way.

  • My ipod touch has a short amount of battery life of around two hours, but i installed an app that tells you how much battery life left, it said 4 hours, how come? is my ipod touch battery faulty?

    my ipod touch 8gb, ios 4.3.2 has a short amount of battery life of around 2 hours, but i installed an app that tells you the battery life remaining, it said 4 hours, how come? is my ipod touch battery faulty

    Some useful info would be:
    What generation is it?
    How old is it?
    If it's older than the 3rd generation, then the battery may have run its course (or iOS 4.3 is taking a toll on the battery).
    If not, then you might have some issues leaving the wi-fi on and fetching data as well as running apps in the background that abuse location services and notification. Make sure those are off, or only running when necessary. If you see a small arrow in the top right corner (that isn't the music "Play" arrow), then you are currently running a location based service that can drain battery.
    Also check your brightness settings, these can really pull battery life.

  • IPod Touch 1G (1st Generation) Battery Issue

    Hello. I realize there has been a ton of conversation about battery life on the Touch - so much so that it makes it difficult to search through in the Forum. So here is my battery problem. Recently, I updated to the latest 3.1.3 firmware on my wife's iPod Touch. The other day I noticed that the iPod's battery only lasted about 4 or 5 hours and all we were doing was listening to music (through the headphone port). It had a full charge when we started and we just queued up a large playlist (NOT Pandora or anything streaming) and let it play. We did, however, have wifi on. Originally, I thought it was the battery going bad and started to look into replacement. First though, I ran some tests. Here they are in chronological order:
    1. - Fully charged iPod, all apps installed, and wifi OFF. I played videos from the iPod for 5.5 hours straight (with auto dimming turned on). Pretty impressive. Must not be a bad battery.
    2. - Fully charged iPod, deleted all non-Apple apps, and wifi ON. There were 2 email accounts and a Google calendar account set to fetch, but push was turned on in the main settings. After leaving sit (in sleep mode) for 2 hours, the battery was at 97%. Still pretty good.
    3. - Fully charged iPod, wifi ON, with the following apps installed - Remote, Pandora, Facebook, Mobile Air Mouse Pro, Last.fm, Paper Toss (free version), Evernote, Google (apps), and Accura Precision Battery Monitoring. These are probably my most essential apps and most (if not all) are from large companies with a wide user base (assumed more reliable). I left it sit over night (in sleep mode) for 10 hours and had 60% battery life left in the morning. Something is draining the battery here.
    So, it appears to have something to do with wifi and/or my apps. My understanding is that the iPod Touch is supposed to power down wifi while in sleep mode. Is this correct? Could it be a bug with the new firmware? I feel like this is a recent phenomenon with the iPod (don't remember ever having such poor battery life). I would just turn wifi off when not in use, but to me that seems like an unnecessary hassle. I mean, isn't wifi one of the main points of having an iPod Touch? Is anyone else having this issue with the latest firmware and similar apps installed? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    I got my 32 gb 1st gen ipod touch in 2007. It has been used non stop since then, in january 2010 I started to notice that the battery was not lasting as it should (19 hours). in 2008 the battery still lasted for 29 hours of non tsop music (no wifi of course).
    I got the battery replaced and the battery is behaving as it should (29 hours of non stop music playback).
    as the other poster commented. if you use wifi continuously, this will die quicker. The same with games, since the hardware in the 1st gen is not as efficient as in the later generations.
    i would say first disable wifi and test just continuous music playback and see if you get the advertised 22 hours of battery life. if you do nto get that then it is time for a new battery...

  • Why Doesnt the iPod Touch 4G contain a battery percent indicator on the status bar at the top like the iPhone

    Why is the battery life percentage indicator shown on the iPhone not available on the ipod touch

    I guess Apple just thought it wasn't necessary although I wish they did include the battery life percentage indicator.

  • HT1322 what should i do about my ipod touch 4th generation's battery?

    My ipod touch 4th generation lasts about 10 minutes i have had it for about two years now and it has obviously run out of warranty so should i replace the battery or is there any way to fix this

    The fixed-price for non-warranty replacements and battery changes can be found here.
    However, it's worth trying a few things yourself just in case it's not a battery problem.  First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Does iPod (4th gen) have a battery life problem?

    I have had my 4th gen iPod for less than 2 years (was a replacement after the screen was cracked. Was purchased at an actual Apple Retail store).  I am now finding that it won't hold a charge. I have tried 4 different cords (including the original cords from the original and the replacement iPod) plus 2 other iPod compatible cords and plug it in every night, only to find out that 6 out of 7 days it still reads as having a low battery (at 20% battery life). I am pretty sure it is not the cords. In addition, lately I have been getting messages about the temperature (being either too hot or too cold). I do not leave my iPod in the sun or in my car EVER, yet I've gotten messages about the battery being too hot (even when it was in an air conditioned house for several hours) and now I am getting messages about it being too cold (it is freezing outside, but the iPod has been inside and does not even feel cold to the touch).
    I would update it to the new version, but it requires 50% power to do so, and I can't get enough power to it (even when it is plugged in for hours, it still doesn't show enough battery life).
    I have an appointment at the genius bar next week, but thought I would ask if anyone else is having this/these problem(s) and what they did to resolve the issue  Thanks.

    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.
    - 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 suspect a hardware problem because of the high temp warning.

  • IPad 2 with iOS 7.03 loses 12% of battery life in 24h. in Airplane Mode

    Hi everyone,
    I've always tried to maximize the battery life of my iPad; I fully discharge it and then fully charge all the time, and I don't do more than 1 full charge cicle per week.
    In iOS 6 my iPad 2 was functioning nicely, with no noticeable battery drain in standby / sleep mode. The moment I upgraded to iOS 7 i noticed that my battery life was draining without using the iPad, about 1% per hour constantly.
    I started to do a little bit of research. I made sure first that the iPad really goes to sleep when I close the smart cover.
    I started to disable everything, one by one, removed all notifications, configured email to download only when I ask, disabled backgroun application refresh, closesd all applications before putting the iPad to sleep, etc.
    I notice a little bit of improvement in terms of battery life in sleep mode but I still had a visible unacceptable battery drain in sleep mode.
    I decided then to start real tests so I started to do the following:
    - I fully charged it and fully chaged it
    - when it reached 100% charge I kept it 2 more hours in charge
    - I closed all apps and then I did a restart by pressing simultanously the home and the power buttons for more than 5 seconds
    - I started the iPad, closed the smart cover to put it in sleep mode
    - after 24 hours it was showing 87% so I lost 13%
    Next test was similar but before putting the iPad to sleep I, put it in Airplane Mode. This time after 24 hours it was showing 88% so I lost 12%
    One very weird thing that happened during this last test was that after 24h in Airplane Mode when I opened the lid, and without turning off the Airplane Mode I got a notification that there is a new software upgrade to iOS 7.04 waiting for me to install. REALLY in Airplane Mode . . . ???? I do not understand.
    Have you noticed similar battery drain issues in iOS 7, did any of you performed similar tests ?
    I consider 12% battery drain in 24 h. in sleep mode unacceptable, really unacceptable
    My next test will be to turn it off for 24 hours to see how much is the battery draining when off.
    Maybe Apple people have something to say. I have an appointment to the Genius bar today.
    I'll keep you guys posted

    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 the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight.  Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger.  Do NOT use a computer's USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the 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.  If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
    Also, 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.
