Upgrade to IOS 5.1 battery life is a issue for me now.

Upgrade to IOS 5.1 battery life is a issue for me now. 2 hours and battery drained 25 % with only a few text messages sent. And why hasnt direction/map search for siri in canada still not working?
what the &%*@ apple?
safe to say, this is my first iphone and last.

I would hope that "addressed" is a nice way of saying they fixed the bugs they introduced in earlier releases. I mean, if you address the situation without actually resolving it, what value is that?
If you didn't have a battery life issue in 5.0.1 and you now have one in 5.1, that's obviously disturbing. Since you're not near a Genius Bar, you can always try the standard routine:
- Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Settings
- Set up as a new phone and NOT restore from backup. Try running as a clean phone with no third-party apps and see if that makes a difference before restoring your apps.
If you check Settings -> General -> Usage what are the numbers? Does "Usage" have a high value you wouldn't expect?
Does the phone seem warm while it's not being used? That's indicative of a process that is running in a loop and draining battery even while you're not using it.

HT1476 ever since I upgraded to ios 7, the battery life is very short and I do not use my ipad all that much.l have been on the phone to apple 3 times, turning off all kinds of things I so not use and have powered off more than before but it is still poor

ever since I upgraded to ios 7, my battery life is very short. I do not use the ipad all that much and have to charge it twice as much as before. I have been on the phone to Apple 3 times and turned off a number of things that I am not using and now power it off more regularly but still not happy with battery life. It is less than a year old and as I said, I don' t use it all that much

My best bet would be to restore the phone. Back it up to itunes, and then reset it Factory settings. This way, any corrupt software will be removed, and you can start fresh. Make sure you back it up first. By the sounds of it, you are using the phone for business and probably need the data from it. Hope this helps!

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

After uploading our phones with the latest update, we have noticed that the battery life has deminished considerably. I now have to charge my phone overnight and two or three times a day. Prior to the update, my battery life lasted me at least a full day

After uploading our phones with the latest update, we have noticed that the battery life has deminished considerably. I now have to charge my phone overnight and two or three times a day. Prior to the update, my battery life lasted me at least a full day. We have several phones in our office and the ones that have updated (4) now have issue holding a charge/battery life. I really liked this phone and can not believe that you are now going to charge us $79 a battery to fix what is most definately a problem with your latest update. I know other people outside of our company that are having the same problem. Not to mention when I called AT&T it was confirmed to me that they are hearing the same issue and then some from other customers as well. Your own people, once I talked to them earlier today, told me they are showing a history of issues that are showing up after the update was put in place. Of course she tried to say, "Maybe the age of the battery and the update both contributed". Whatever.
I want you all to know how disappointed I am in your company for the handling of this issue. I always thought "Apple" was the line I didn't have to worry about having any types of issue. And that you all would stand behined your product 100%. Now I am not so sure.
I would love to hear back from your company on how you perceive the issue with all of these phones that prior to the update didn't have any issues and how after the update THEY ARE NOW having issues. I do not believe this was an issue due to the age of a battery and that was pretty lame to say so. It was fine and now its not.
Please feel free to contact me and help me figure out a way to pay for all of the batteries that will be needed for our company to contiue doing business as needed.
Thank you.

How to preserve battery life ~ used to last all day, now it runs out by lunchtime

How to preserve battery life ~ used to last all day, now it runs out by lunchtime

I would advise updating to iOS 7. It might improve your battery and the bugs are worked out by now.
If not wanting to update because of the new look, here are some tips:
-Turn off bluetooth when not needed.
-Connect to wifi and turn off cellular data when possible.
-When not around wifi, turn wifi off.
-Keep your screen at around 50% brightness.
-Disbale certain apps or features in Settings<Privacy<Location Services if they are not necessary.
-Close out of apps in the multitasking bar.
-Enable airplane mode when you plan on not using your phone for a while.
Hopefully these tips help you. If your battery does eventually get too bad, you can get it changed out by apple. If youve had your device for under a year, you can take it into an Apple store and theyll give you a new phone in return. Have a good night and good luck!

I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don't remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone.

How i said on the question. I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don’t remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone. I have the phone box and the bill. I sent you an email with my problem and attachments with the box informations, the bill and the reset request. What to do? You said to me:
Your request comes from an unrecognized email domain. Apple accepts email requests only from email domains for Apple-authorized carriers.
Please re-submit your request using your official carrier domain.
but this email is authorized, what to do??

Upgraded to ios 7.1 battery drain is significant and have lost my calendar events. how do i get my events back and why am i losing so much power now?

how do i get my calendar events back and why the power drain after upgrading my operating system to 7.1?

Thought I'd reply to this seen as no one else has, I am also experiencing very similar problems with my 4s and by the looks of it is it's across all handsets. I've never had any battery issues with my iPhone even 7.0.6 was fine, but since updating to 7.1 the battery is ticking down very fast. I fully charged in the morning and left it in my locker all day at work when I got my hands on it it's gone down to 52% just on its own!!
I really hope they sort this out fast the irony is 7.1 was supposed to help battery life!

Ios 7.1 battery life drains fast

should improve battery life in ios 7.1 to last longer

My fix finally ended up being to change my ExchangeSync mail service to Pull and not Push. Battery life now resembles normalcy. Only need Apple to patch the iOS to remedy this problem. Please HURRY!!!

IOS 8.3 battery life

HI, I want to expous my angry about the recent upload of the iOS 8.3 softwear in my iPhone 6. iOS 8.3 it is killing my battery life with a normal using, actually I have been using my phone only 4 houre, and 2 of them it was in standby and my battery is 55%. I don't know what they fix or improve, but they ruin a battery that is "bad" in comparative with the others smartphones.
Plis find a solution/update to this softwear because I am sure that this isn't an individual problem, and it must be solve, because a phone with no battery life is just a paperwaght

here it does not look different. an insolence of apple, nothing more!

2.1 Upgrade problems with Contacts & Calendar & Battery Life

I upgraded a couple of days ago and wish I hadn't. After the upgrade my Contacts were no longer there, my calendar hadn't synced and the battery life is worse than before. I tried the gently approach initially by resetting my iPhone but after that didn'r improve anything I used iTunes to restore my phone. It did work to some extent and the contacts reappeared briefly but if I tried to use Contacts the phone froze and then kicked mr out to the main screen.
Don't get me wrong, I think the iPhone 3G is great and suits my requirements very well and the previous version of the firmware didn't cause me any issues appart from some of the free apps started to misbehave just before the upgrade. I'll take back that bad behavious if I could get the contacts & calendar th function as they did.
Has anybody else had the same problems and found any solutions?

The 2.1 update hasn't been very successful for me either...
The battery life has reduced significantly. Since the 2.1 update, my battery is dead before I get home from work!!! Pretty shocking really....which means it lasts about 8-9hrs. Majority of that is on stand-by.
Plus every app takes an absolute age to load and it takes an age to return the home screen when exiting apps.
If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears....
Is your 3G on all the time? You might want to check that, cuz 3G does eat a lot of battery. Do you have wi-fi on? Usually wi-fi does drain less then 3G when it's connected to one network but if you are walking around, and the wi-fi doesn't connect, it will search for another network and it can cause to eat up battery while searching. So if you aren't going to use wi-fi, just turn that off. Same with 3G. if you don't use 3G then turn it off, and turn it back on when you use it. Usually 3G is faster data, so faster internet than Edge.
How often do you fetch? Push?
If you have almost everything ON, that could be the reason why your battery dies quickly.
Maybe try testing it with everything off like 3G, wi-fi, push, and see if that helps.
If none of this work, then have you considered rebooting your phone (pushing home and sleep/wake at the same time for more than 6 seconds until the apple logo screen appears)? Have you tried restoring your iphone from itunes?
If this still doesn't work, or your not satisfied, I'd suggest going to the Apple store and have the genius take a look at.

With the new iOS 7 - how do you turn off previously viewed app's like the previous iOS to save battery life?

Before I updated to the new iOS - I was able to turn off app's by tapping the bottom button twice and then placing and holding my finger on the app - I can't do that with the new OS and it quickly wastes battery life. What can I do?

Double click on the Home button. Swipe left-right to view the previously opened apps. Swipe UP to close them.

IOS 7 affected battery life

My battery life was affected after IOS 7 update. Any ideas

OK, some of the things in iOS 7 default to on, so you might want to run through the settings and turn off things that might be causing this drain on your battery. Also, when you start using a new iOS version, the usual thing is to use your phone more or less constantly, so you just might be draining the battery by trying new things. Give it a week, and see if it is better, but DO check to make sure battery draining things aren't on that you don't need.

IOS 4 reduces battery life on my iPod touch 2nd Gen

Before I updated my iPod touch to iOS 4 my iPod touch could stay in sleep mode for weeks, but now with iOS 4 it can't last a day in sleep mode. I believe this is because iOS 4 keeps the WiFi on even when in sleep mode. In iPhone OS 3.1.3 the WiFi would turn off when in sleep mode, in iOS 4 Wifi is always on allowing my apps to look for notifications all the time and that is what I think is the problem. In iPhone OS 3.1.3 I could have Mail fetch new data every 15 minutes without impacting the battery life in any way. I tried doing the same in iOS 4 and the battery couldn't last 6 hours.
The problem with iOS 4 is that the WiFi is on at all times, even when it is in sleep mode, something Apple needs to fix in the next update.

The answer, I regret to say, can be found in [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11987618#11987618|Th e sad truth about iPod/iPhone battery life].
It basically boils down to using iTunes to perform the "Restore" to factory settings.
The fact of the matter is that it could be WiFi, Notifications, multi-tasking (even if 2nd Gen iPods do support it) or a thousand other things. The only thing I can save for sure is that there are deep, system level settings that are either corrupt or, most likely, obsolete. Settings that vary so widely from user to user that the only one can be certain that they have all been eliminated is to flush them all and start over.
Not a very scientific solution, but an effective one.
If you find this suggestion ludicrous and unreasonable, feel free to read my other posts on the topic. You'll find me to be a confederate.

Upgrade to IOS 5.1 battery life is a issue for me now.
