I Have the same issue on a brand new iPad mini 2. My battery is only lasting up to 5 hours. I went on chat with Apple last night and they said my battery is fine and its a Safari issue. I'm literally losing 1% every 3-4 minutes. I tried recalibrating my battery, signing out of iCloud, shutting off all locations, turning off background app refresh, restoring network settings, restoring all, and finally restoring from iTunes with no luck. This is just awful. I got this iPad so I could use it on my long flight for a trip I have coming up, and unfortunately, it's not going to last that long, plus I'm concerned about how many times i will be recharging my battery because of this since battery's do have a life cycle dependent on the number of charges. This is frustrating and needs to be fixed ASAP and addressed by Apple.
By the way, Apple told me to bring my device to the Apple Store because it's still under warranty. That's great and all, but I'm going to waste my time if there is no fix for this issue.
Ok so you want Apple to address the problem, but yet you don't want to take it to them just in case they can't fix it? What if they can fix it? Complaining here certainly won't fix it.

  • My Droid2 Global will not pair to My Ford SYNC since the latest software update.  Please help!

    Since the latest update, my Droid2 will not pair to my Ford SYNC.  The phone will not find SYNC for me to place in the PIN.  It use to work wonderful before the latest update.  
    I can not drive and talk on my phone without SYNC.  Corporate Car- Corporate Policy.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello rosalee2340,
    Thank you for sharing your concern as I am more than happy to assist you! Are you able to successfully pair your Droid 2 with another bluetooth device, like an earpiece or a computer? This will help us determine if there is an issue with the bluetooth technology after the software update or is it a compatibility issue. Also, what year and model vehicle do you have? In order to successfully pair with the vehicle, the Droid 2 must be in discovery mode. Below is a link to walk thru placing the Droid 2 into discovery mode.

    Once the phone is in discovery mode, the next step would be to attempt to pair with SYNC again. Here is a video link with the steps on how to pair a phone with SYNC.
    http://syncsupport.ford.com/servlet/technology/connect-phone-sync
    If the pairing is unsuccessful then you can contact the dealership for assistance with the pairing process and/or for an updated device compatibility list of phone. Let me know how the steps above works out for you.
    Thank you...

  • Since the latest software update, every third or so time I turn it on, my sounds settings are changed and I cannot listen to anything-music, YouTube, nothing. I can sometimes change something and it will work, but right now nothing is working. Anyone else

    Since latest software update, my sound settings are changing sometimes when I turn on and cannot hear anything. All controls are useless and cannot be activated. After changing several things, I have been able to make it work, but today nothing is working. Anyone else experience this  and have any ideas?

    Try reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.

    Help.  I recently downloaded the latest software update for on my Apple TV (per the prompt Apple TV gave us).  Ever since downloading the update, we cannot access movies, play movies, or access iTune store.  We can play YouTube videos so the problem is not related to the connection.  It happens only when we are trying to access Movies.  Very confused.  Our AppleTV was working fine until I did the new software update.  Now this problem!  Help!

  • Since installing the latest software update I have been unable to access my mail app.the screen appears blank?

    Since installing the latest software update I have been unable to access my mail app.the screen appears blank?

    Force close the mail app and reset your iPad. See if that fixes it.
    In order to close the mail app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • HT4623 Can I update 3 iPhones with the latest software update that are all on thr same iTunes account?

    I kept all my iPhones after I upgrading to the latest one each time my 2 year contract was up so I have an iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S. I actually still use all 3 phones for different purposes. My iphone 3gs is not activated, but I still use it for apps among other things when connected to wifi. My iphone 4 & 4s are both activated with 2 saparete phone numbers, but I have all 3 devices on the same iTunes account. I never noticed this to be a problem until just recently when I was thinking about selling one of my iphones since I'm now due to upgrade again to the iPhone 5.  Well my problem is that when the latest iphone software update came available I noticed that all 3 iPhones had a notification letting me know that there was a new update available & I didn't want to update my iphone 4 & 4S until I had a recent back-up on my pc just incase anything went wrong like once before. Referring to the last time I updated my iphone 4s for some reason right in the middle of the update it lost connection. So I had to restore my entire phone from scratch & because I didn't check to make sure that had a recent back up right before I updated I ended up losing a lot of important information. So anyway since my iphone 3GS I knew had a recent back up & plus it doesn't have a lot of important information stored on it I chose to go ahead & update it first. Then later on when I went to update my other two iPhones I noticed the notification that was there before on all my phones to let me know the update was available was now gone & it would not give me the option to update either of my other two phones. I don't know if this is true or not, but I was later told that Apple will only let you download the free update software on only one device on each iTunes account & since I have all 3 devices on one itunes account I could only choose to update one. I didn't know this beforehand so I used the update on my 3GS which I barely use except to play with on wifi & now my other two iPhones which are the main ones I use are both activated now function very slow & constantly crash. Also if I was to choose to sale one of the iPhones without the latest software update on it does that mean that the new owner will not be able to get the latest update meaning the phone would be out of date without having that latest software installed? If anyone knows how to help me fix this or give some advice I would really appreciate!!

    That's utter non-sense.
    Just connect your 4 & 4S, iTunes running, & hit the "Check for Updates" button, or you can update directly on the phones(if running iOS 5.0 or higher): Settings>General>Software Update.
    iOS 6.1.3 is the current iOS version for both phones.

  • My apple tv seems to have hung up during the latest software update - what should I do now?

    my apple tv seems to have hung up during the latest software update - what should I do now?
    I have not turned it off but it has been stuck in the same spot for 30 minutes now and I'm not sure what to do next since the screen says to NOT turn it off until done. Please help.

    If it hangs much longer you may need to disconnect and then grab a micro USB to restore through iTunes

    How much data is being backed-up from each Mac?  (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
    Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
    Most likely, there just isn't room.  Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't.  Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).

    Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply.  Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself.  I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues. 
    This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative.  This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved.  I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question. 
    BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.}  No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you. 
    So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
    Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

  • HT1338 Help since installing latest software updates I now can't open safari????

    Help since installing latest software updates I now can't open safari????

    Hi Stewartirl,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Are you only having issues opening Safari? Are you able to connect to the internet with other Browsers or using Mail?
    The article below is a good starting point for troubleshooting.  I'd start by plugging in an ethernet cable and restarting the computer.  If the wired (LAN) connection works, then unplug the ethernet cable and continue troubleshooting the wireless connection.

  • My keyboard layout changed as a result of the latest software updates

    I have a MacBook Air with a US keyboard layout.  (I think - I live in NZ)
    I agreed to automatically install the latest OS updates.  Ever since then the keyboard layout for some characters has changed.
    For example Shift-2 used to produce an @ symbol - now it produces a ".  I now get the @ symbol when I press the key labelled [.
    Please help - this is driving me nuts!
    This started today as a result of the latest software update!

    iPad running slow? How to speed up a slow iPad
    http://appletoolbox.com/2012/07/ipad-running-slow-how-to-speed-up-a-slow-ipad/
    If You Think iOS 7 Feels Slow Here’s How to Speed It Up
    http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/23/ios-7-slow-speed-it-up/
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine, mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar.

    Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
    If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
    Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
