No battery percentage at top of screen.
Why dosen't my iPad 2 no longer show battery percentage at top of screen.
Go to Settings>General>Battery Percentage and make sure it is set to ON. If it is - reset your iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider.

My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me. My ipod will no longer show me the battery percentage in the top right hand corner and I am not allowed to drag other applications to the bottom panel. Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version
- Unjailbroken iPod never showed % battery. Just the icon.
- Unjailbroken iPod Touches never had a disk mode.
- What happens when you try to drag a wiggling app to a empty space in the bottom? Does it move and snap back? -
Just updated to 7.1 and now open some apps and cannot see the entire screen because the iPad, time n battery icons are covering top of screen.
I tried what you said but it still didn't help.
It only affects some of my apps other apps are fine.
For some reason in some of my apps the iPad, time and battery icons get bigger on the top of my screen so I can't see the top of the app page which effects some of the games and applications.
Is there any way to turn these icons off on the top of the screen? -
whenevenr I call a person sometimes the phone gives me an option of callback and end when I press the callback button the whole screen goes blank and only the upper Taskbar where it shows network provider , time and battery percentage is shown
Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue. -
Sweet - battery percentage on screen
I just found out you can display the Battery Percentage on your screen next to the battery icon in the upper right-hand corner. Guess I was unaware of this. Go to Settings > General > Usage to turn it on. Pretty sweet little feature I think.

There are no user serviceable parts in an iPhone. Since you
made an unauthorized repair to your iPhone, you will have to
seek assistance elsewhere.
Google or ifixit.com may provide some direction, but you can

So can anyone help me :/ idk whats wrong woth this ps I have the 5
Hello Neygotsole,
Having your device malfunction can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is experiencing multiple issues. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

Can I enable Battery percentage on my iPod touch 4th generation running iOS 5.1.1 without beig jailbroken?
You can enable battery % on ipod touch 4g without jailbreaking it you can use backup bot for itunes. Thats how i enabled it on mine. Step 1: goto http://www.icopybot.com/ibackupbot_setup.exe download and install it if you have windows. Step 2: Next create a backup of your device in iTunes and then CLOSE iTunes (or else you may run into problems later on) do not lock the backup with a password. Step 3: Open iBackupBot. Click the backup you just made Next click "Path" to sort by Path. Step 4: Look for Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist and double click it. On the registration screen that comes up, hit cancel. Step 5: Find <dict> and create a new line after it. Then add this:
<key>SBShowBatteryLevel</key>
<true/>
Step 6: Hit CTRL + S or just the save button at the top left corner of that editor window. Now close the window.
Step 7: Right click that same backup you just edited
Step 8: click restore
Step 9: Done! If you don't see the changes, reboot your iPod.
Enjoy I hope you found this useful! -
How do I get the battery percentage to show on my iPod? It's 4G, iOS 6.1.6...
How do I permanently put the battery percentage next to the battery icon on the top right of my screen. It does not say "Battery Percentage >"
samik 16 , that option is not native to iPods

To enable battery percentage, open the Settings app. Then, tap on the General menu. Tap on "Usage," and then there should be an option for Battery Percentage which may need to be switched to the ON position. -
Why has battery percentage been enabled for iPad and iPhone, but not iPod Touch?
iPhones have had the option to enable the battery percentage reading in the top right corner of the screen since they came out, and iPads later got that ability. Yet throughout their times, updates, and models, iPod Touch users never have had that option. And that tiny battery icon can be deceiving. That icon on my iPod Touch 5G looks like I have 50% left, yet I plug it in, and suddenly, its charging just with a red end, meaning 20% or less remaining. Apple... PLEASE give iPod Touches the option to torn that percentage on at the top right corner of the screen, even if it's only to the nearest 5 percent, although one app I have tells me exact battery percentage, so iPods have that capability, just please put it in the settings! I like the convenience of that reading at the top, rather than opening an app every time I need a battery reading! PLEASE Apple, it's time to let us get the percent! Also, adding a built-in FM Radio receiving antenna for on-the-go FM Radio support wouldn't be a bad idea in the next generation if iPod Touch!
It can be added but it is inaccurate. Large fluctuation in % battery will be seen with load changes.

Hi folks,
I recently bought a new MacBook Pro with Retina (13") and have noticed a pecularity with the battery indicator that I'd appreciate an opinion on please.
I've charged my MBPr battery to full (100% on the menu bar and green light on the MagSafe connector). I disconnect the power and close the lid which puts that MacBook to sleep. After leaving it overnight, I open the lid and and the unlock screen shows the percentage battery having gone down by a couple of percent (which I take to be normal) - e.g. 98%. However, when I unlock and get back to the desktop, it's still showing as 100%. Clicking on the battery icon, it shows as calculating the amount of time left. After about a minute or so, it tells me how much estimated time I've got left, and the percentage indicator updates to give me the correct percentage. When using it normally, the percentage indicator drops on the desktop as I would expect it to.
Is this normal for it to give the correct percentage on the unlock screen, but then to give the original (pre-sleep) percentage when unlocked, until it has updated and worked out how much time it's got left on battery?
I've read elsewhere that many folks have been having issues with the battery indicator since Mavericks rolled out, and there are some resets that can be done by pressing various key combinations whilst powering on. I've had the MacBook only a few days, and haven't installed anything on it - it hasn't even been connected to the internet yet - so I assumed that it should be working correctly from the off - unless there's something buggy with Mavericks causing this?
I would normally shut down a computer overnight, but I like how the MBP instantly resumes when I open the lid. Am also wondering whether it'll take a few charge cycles before the battery reaches full capacity and is properly calibrated. The system report shows that it shipped to me having undergone only 3 charge cycles to date.
Any opinions would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
GophaAfter some more testing:
Disabling the battery percentage indicator and then re-enabling it causes the percentage value to update to the 'correct' value. Rebooting the MacBook also causes it to update to the correct value.
Seems like I'm not the only one with this particular issue: https://discussions.apple.com/message/24402123#24402123

as a newbie to Macs and Mavericks, am I right in saying that there is currently an issue with Mavericks?
Thanks,

Battery Percentage not showing up in iOS8
Every time I try to turn it on in settings > general > usage nothing shows beside the battery bar in the corner. Anyone else having this problem?
Same. When I restart or reset my 4S it briefly shows battery status as a percentage on the lock screen. Then the screen refreshes and from then on the battery status it's shown as a battery regardless of the Battery Percentage setting.
I think it started doing this today after I charged it. There were a 9-10 application updates today but no iOS updates.

Battery indicator showing fully charged when plugged in but battery percentage is not
I've had the iPhone 5 for about 6 months now and starting about a week ago the battery started messing up. I plug in my phone to charge and the indicator at the top right shows the fully charged indicator when the battery percentage is clearly not 100%. Randomly it will switch to the charging indicator and actually charge but otherwise it stays like that and just continues to lose battery while it is plugged in. I've tried my friend's charger and it still does the same thing so it's not the charger that is malfunctioning.
Seems like battery is faulty. Make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.
