On my 2nd 5s battery last only 4 hrs turn off almost everything with no help

Only get four hours battery life on my I phone 5s same on second one. Tried everything anybody have any ideas?

Follow Diesel vdub's advice. Plug your phone into itunes and preform a restore. Then, restore your phone from a backup and see if it fixes it. If not, restore the phone but wait on putting your backup back. See if it works. If not, it looks like its a hardware issue.
It does sound to me like the digitizer (the glass, basically) has gone bad and needs to be replaced. I would visit your local Apple Store after trying a few restores from iTunes.

I have a MBP which I purchased in 2009 July, I have noticed when I charge my MB the last goes up to only 97% and the battery lasts only for about an hour and a half. I am still under warranty till 2012.
How much is to to change the battery at apple, or is it covered under the warranty and how long will it take.

Hi farazthambi: There may not be any reason to change your battery. Check out the Apple articles below for your issues.

MBP 15'' 2011 battery lasts only 3 hours!

Hi
I bought MBP 2011 15 inch last week and received it on Monday.
My configs are
Model Name:          MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:          MacBookPro8,2
Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
Processor Speed:          2.2 GHz
Number of Processors:          1
Total Number of Cores:          4
L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
L3 Cache:          6 MB
Memory:          4 GB
and I also upgraded to high resolution.
So far, I'm pretty much enjoying my new MBP
But I have one main concern with my new laptop's battery time.
The battry time is really really short!
When I first turned it on, it took 3 hours to drain the battery. (starting from 98% or so)
And I did calibration thing so that the battery runs more "efficiently"
Of course, I didn't expect that calibration would make the battery last longer, but no matter what,
I only get 3 hours of battery life and I'm not even doing something that would drain my battery fast.
I just do simple web surfing and word documenting on about 30-40% brightness (or even lower sometimes)
And I get only 3 hours of bettery time.
So is this because my MBP has four i7 cores or or what?
Previous MBP 15'' models seem to last at least around 5 hrs doing exactly same thing.
And considering that I have been using my MBP only for 5 days or so, I'm worried that the battery life will become even less!
Maybe like 2 hrs?
Is this a particular issue with my laptop, that I can return and exchange to new model or get fixed without fees?
Or is it just built this way that all the MBP 2011 15'' models have this kind of short battery life?

OMG turning off the Bluetooth just gave me like extra 3 hours of battey time! (6 hrs total)
I didn't even know it was turned on in the first place because I never touched it.
I guess bluetooth is on as a default setting.
Thank you so much for advice.
I feel so stupid, but please be understanding since it's actually my first MacBook.
But I'm really glad to find out that I was wasting battery with bluetooth on, and now I can get better battery time.
Thanks once again!

I am using my Ipad on a remote craftshow site and am having problems with battery lasting 8 hrs. Can I use a 12v rv battery to recharge it or atleast maintain the charg over longer periods of time? I have a dc adapter. thanks

You should be able to use the battery if you get a car type charger which recharges mobile devices.
The full size iPads use a 10-12W charger, whereas the mini uses a 5W charger. Many car chargers only supply 5W. But at 5W, the car charger should give you some extra time on your iPad. It would be best to use a 10-12W car charger.

I have an iPhone 4s just eight months, it is normal that the battery lasts only 3 hours? please help me thank you very much.

Three hours if definitely NOT normal. I get at least 48 hours out my 2 year old iPhone 4S' battery with light usage. Did you do the iOS 7 update on the phone it self (OTA) or through iTunes? In my experience most problems are caused by the OTA updates. For this reason I ALWAYS update using iTunes on my computer.
I would suggest restoring your phone using iTunes on your computer and setting it us as a new phone. This downloads a fresh copy of iOS 7.1 from Apple and installs it on your phone. Just make sure that you transfer all purchased items (apps, music, etc.) as well as photos to your computer before restoring as the restore will completely wipe your phone. Do not restore from a back-up. Yes, you will loose all your data on the phone but restoring a back-up can restore the problem you are currently having back to your phone. Once your phone has been restored you can manually sync back your apps and music.
Before restoring you can also check to see that battery-killers like Location Services, Background App Refresh, etc are only turned on for the apps that really need it. I recently read and article that said that the Facebook app can be a real battery killer. If you have this app installed turn of location services and background app refresh for this app and see if that helps. Also go to Settings / General / Restrictions / Location Services / System Services and turn off all the options in that menu. Your phone does not need any of those to function. Constantly using your phone's GPS is a huge battery killer. I only have Location Services enabled for Find my iPhone and Background App Refresh is turned off completely.
I hope this helps.

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

I have a problem that my phone only vibrates but does NOT ring any more. No matter what I try to do with settings turning off "silent" or whatever nothing helps. Do I need to reset. what are the consequences of resetting?

What a numpty! Yes of course you're right.
Couldn't find the answer when searching the forum but then came accross this.
Next dumb question coming up! :-(

My iPhone randomly turns off by itself with battery remaining. I can turn on the iPhone by hard restart. But sometimes it turns on at fifth, sixth, or more try. did anyone have this problem? and how can I fix it?

When my phone was off it wouldn't connect to iTunes, i got it working now though. I just had to hold my lock button and my home button down long enough. Thanks anyways though!

After I connect with my iPhone (3GS 5.0.1) to any Ad-hoc wireless Network then walk away out of the reach of my wifi network, my iPhone can't find any wifi Network afterwards, only by turning off the iPhone completely and turning on again.

switching off wifi and on again or going into airplane mode did't help!
This problem happens only with ad-hoc wifi networks not with normal ones.
(Ad-Hoc network was created on XP Computer)

Welcome to Apple Discussions
Sorry, but the 169.x.x.x IP address is internally generated by the iPod (and iPhone) and indicates that a network has been detected but no IP address has been issued. Your friends iPhone was not connected to your ad hoc network either - it connected to the internet through the 3G network.
You should read through the Vista help screens on ad hoc networking for some insight how this works. You should be able to get some ideas there.
In the mean time, $40 or less will buy you a very capable wireless router with four Ethernet ports and will simplify your network tremendously. Having used Windows ICS for a long time, the addition of a router and a real network simplified things so much.

Advice:
1. Learn to use punctuation and sentence structure - your post makes little sense.
2. I'm getting the idea you now want to use your old "useless" battery. Why, if it's useless?

Battery lasts only up to 2 hours??

I just got my brand new 2nd gen iPod Touch today (32 GB) and completely charged the battery. After less than 2 hours of use, probably more like an hour and a half, the batter was 3/4 of the way down. Shouldn't it last longer than this? Could there be something I was doing that wore the battery down so fast?
Thanks!

all the battery articles/threads say turn the wi-fi off if you aren't using it. BUT in my personal experience it acts more like a mobile phone trying to find a network. if you are within range of a wifi network you have access to, having wifi switched on won't really effect your battery that much. if you aren't, and it is constantly looking for a network, the battery will go down much quicker.
that's if you aren't using it. i listen to a 3 1/2 hour radio show over wifi, this will drain the battery quite drastically.
joaquinx is right about the brightness, you should have that set on the lowest setting which is acceptable to you.
it also depends what you are doing with it. are you playing videos/games? they will drain the battery very quickly. if you are just listening to audio, the battery will last much longer.

After Bell Update - My battery lasts only 8 hours

Hello
I have a Nokia N8. As there was Symbian Anna on it, I have optimized my battery consumption. It was running at least 2-3 days.
Now after upgrading to Anna it lasts only 8 hours. This is really not much.
What can I do? I have no Apps like Skype or WhatsApp running. Also I disabled all autostart apps with SafeManager.
Thank you

Hello
I think I found the solution.
I am patricipant of Nokia Beta Labs. So I have a lot of Beta Apps installed.
The last update for Store QML client (http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/store-qml-client?req=true) helped a lot.
But the major Battery consumer was the new Nokia Maps Suite 2.0 (http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-maps-suite?req=true).
If you have installed this, than you have to install Pulse as well!! (http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-pulse).
In Pulse, there are two options, wich you have to disable both.
Then Symbian Belle goes even longer than Anna! =)
Here is some ohter discussion about the same topic: http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-maps-suite/bugreport/43877/complete-battery-drain-overnight
This helped alot.
Thank you all.

Macbook pro mid 2011 battery lasting only 3 hours

How can I get my brand new Macbook pro mid 2011 battery to last longer, now it's lasting only 3 hours.

Do not believe the advertised specs from any manufacturer regarding battery life. In the real world expect about 60% to 70% of those figures. Battery life is influenced by many factors, Among these are display brightness, the number and type of applications you are running, if the optical drive is used, external devices that may be attached etc.
3 hours seems a bit low but not necessarily out of line. Go to SYSTEM PROFILER>POWER and see what it says by 'Condition'. If it is other than 'normal' you may have battery issues (Explanations then can be found in FINDER>HELP).
Ciao.

After updating to 10.4.11 my battery lasts only aprox 40 min.

I noticed this as soon as I got done updating to 10.4.11. My battery lasts about 40 minutes unplugged if I'm not using computer. It lasts about 10 hours on sleep.
Before the update it lasted about 2 hours or longer when not in use and after 10 hours of being in sleep only took about 3-5% of the battery.
I've done the battery updates months ago.
The battery is only about a year old and I didn't have any of these issues right before the update.

Check your POWER in About this MAC,
System profiler. You should have higher than 300 cycle count and close to 5000mA
Mine is about 1100mA and lasts 8-10 minutes before complete shut down.
Apple says I need to bring to a tech....
