  • My iPhone 3G is not recognizing the USB cord to sync or charge and now my battery has gone dead.  Any suggestions?

    I went to charge my phone and it didn't recognize the cord.  I tried plugging it in to my computer and it didn't recognize it there either.  The battery has now gone dead and I can't even complete a hard reset.  Any suggestions?

    At this point, you are past the 1 year hardware warranty that comes with the iPhones, and even if you had purchased AppleCare, you would be outside the 2 year coverage that comes with it. Basically you have 2 options, take your phone into an Apple Retail Store near you, and see if they can do anything for it, or pay an out of warranty pricing replacement of $199.

  • Is it worth replacing the battery on my 4 year old macbook pro?

    I purchased my macbook pro 13 inch basic model summer 2009.
    The battery is basically dead so I have to keep it plugged in all the time.
    I'm wondering if it is worth replacing the battery this late?
    Should I just wait it out until I have to buy a new laptop?
    How long does a macbook generally last?
    Thanks!

    of course - i'm still using my late 08 Macbook Unibody and have no issues.
    if your Macbook Pro still works for you - spend the extra $$$ and replace the battery - if you want it to last even longer - upgrade the RAM to 8GB and change the hard drive to SSD.
    tolal investment = $50(RAM) $100 - $150 (battery) $100 - $200 (SSD) = $400 Max and you'll end up with a very fast macbook pro.

  • TS4006 can i locate my phone if the battery has gone flat?

    Can i locate my lost phone on maps if the battery is flat?

    It will give you the last known possition.
    If it was moved since the battery went flat - you cannot.
    If someone "finds" it and charge you may get a new location.

  • My screen has gone purple on my macbook pro what can i do ?

    my screen has gone purple with horizontal lines going through the screen i have a mac book pro

    That sounds like a hardware problem. Contact Apple for service. If you have an Apple Store near you, make an appointment at the Genius Bar and take it in for the techs to look at.

  • I am pretty sure my video card has gone bad in my macbook pro, I want to retrieve data before replacing it.  Is this possible?

    My video card has failed and I want to retrieve photos.  Can this be done?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    I wouldn't worry about that. Take your Mac to an Apple Store or reseller and let them repair your Mac. If it's a GPU failure, your hard drive is OK, and you will have the same hard drive with the same data after getting the MacBook Pro repaired.
    However, it's recommended to make a backup. As you can't start up your Mac, what you can do is to take out the hard drive and connect it to another Mac through a USB to SATA adapter, so you can recover your files

  • Why is the battery life of my brand new Macbook Pro 15 inch only 3 hours 40 minutes on a full charge?

    Only thing running on it is Chrome, and the battery life is only 3:38. Am I doing anything wrong?

    It also depends upon what you are doing on Chrome.  Video and flash will eat up battery life.  You are probably doing nothing wrong.
    You might open Activity Monitor and see what applications are taking a lot of CPU%.  Make certain that you have selected 'All Processes".

  • I am trying to understand why the battery life on my recently purchased Macbook seems to be no more than 3-4 hours.

    I am trying to understand why the battery life on my recently purchased Macbook pro is 3-4 hours. Does anyone have this same problem?

    Call Apple Care.   You have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your computer with no questions asked.
    You have 90 days of free phone tech support.
    Take FULL advantage of your warranty.  Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. 

  • My iPad mini ran out of battery when installing an app and now the app has gone?

    I updated Quiz Up today while my iPad mini had 2% battery left! and I thought this would be enough but just as the update was installing my iPad ran out of battery so I immediately put it on charge! when my iPad turned on the app was still there but was darker and said 'waiting' underneath, so I then went to the App Store to continue to update but when I went to the updates section the update was gone, I them we to back to the apps location and the app had gone, so I went to reinstall it but it only said open next to it, and when I press this it does nothing, I would like the app back but I don't know how to get it back, any suggestions? I thought the all might be corrupt but I can't delete it and reinstall it because the icon has gone and it doesn't show up in spotlight, so what do it do?

    Maybe:

    Otherwise try downloaing on computer and sync
    The go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage and tap on the app and try deleting it.

  • I'm getting no power on the MacBook when plugged in.  The battery has drained.

    The battery has drained on my MacBook and the power cord does not seem to connect. The light on the plug does not light. I pulled the battery to reset and plugged it in again but it does not charge or turn on. What can I do now?

    Try a different power adapter?

  • My 13 MacBook Pro acts like the battery has died while it is plugged in.

    I will use my MacBook normally, it will be plugged in and fully charged. I will leave it on, close the lid and leave it plugged in for the night. The next morning it will still be fully charged (the charger indicator light is green, pressing the button on the left also shows full green dots). I will open the lid and instead of being ready to go right where it left off it has a white washed screen with a loading bar across the bottom. It goes through what normally happens as if the battery has died. It takes several minutes to fully start up before I can use it. Battery indicator is still at 100%. Strangely, this problem does not occur when I leave the computer on, UNPLUG it and close the lid. The next morning it will be ready to go without the white-washed loading screen. There is some, but minimal, battery depletion after that but only do to being unplugged. Otherwise it's fine.
    Right now it's in diagnostics overnight at my local apple store. But the apple genius, and several other people I have talked to have not heard of this problem. Any insight? That computer is less than a year old, purchase december 2012. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact operating system. Thank you!

    Youve got a wake from sleep issue when powered.
    yes, youve got a late 2012 macbook Pro running 10.8.5
    Theyll diagnose it and take care of it or replace the logic likely.

  • Ch has gone dead apple store says its had its life at only just over a year old can thuis b right anybody out there had the same problem.

    My ipod touch has gone dead, it is only 1 and half old, apple shop says it is just old and cant b repaired,surely it should last longer than this, anyone out there experienced same. really angry as I have just bought one for my grandson for this Xmas.

    Like all products, especially electrical ones, some have short lifes.  Apple does not fix your broken iPod.  They will exchange it for a refurbished one it for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.

  • My iphone 4 has switched off by itself and won't switch back on. The battery wasn't dead, I have tried restarting it and have tried to put it into recovery mode but it still won't switch back on?

    Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

  • HT1430 my ipad has gone dead.   I tried holding the sleep/wake button down until the red slider appears but it never does.  By the way this a refurbished unit I purchased from Apple and just received it yesterday.

  • I have a MacBook Pro made in mid 2009.  A fully recharged battery dies in about 2 hours.  Is this a systems issue or do I have to replace the battery.  The battery has about 100 cycles on it.

    Try a SMC reset:

    If this is an original battery, even with a low cycle count, it is old and probably should be replaced.
