What is the average battery life supposed to be for the nano?

my battery lasts like 2-3 hours, which is way to short, how long does yours last?

Mine only lasted between 2 and 4 hours, but it was the way I used my nano. I search around a lot, use the backlight, skip songs and really do everything that is not good for battery life. What I finaly did was to put in a higher capacity battery. It really was not hard to do. My ipod nano was off warranty and I went ahead and did it and am so happy I did, I now get well over twice the life I used to and am very happy. My ipod video was still on warranty and I changed the battery to a higher capacity as well, because of the positive result from my nano. Go here to determin your real battery life and to see if it is in fact a bad battery. If it is and you are still under warranty then by all means take it to the apple store or go online for service.

What is average battery life everyone is getting for the Zen Mic

I just got my Zen Micro last Thursday. I'm concern about the battery life. I haven't fully tested the battery yet, but I'm estimating that I will only get about 6-7 hours for it. The advertised time was suppose to be as much as 2 hours. Now I know that depends on your usage (e.g. volume, bitrate of the file, play mode, etc.). What are other people getting? Thanks.

My last test, I tried to be as natural as possible. That is: back light is on; shuffle mode is on; eq is on; volume is normal (at 4 to 6); I skip or go back to tracks; I fast foward; the contrast is at 50 percent; average bitrate (from 28 to 360); smart sound off; and other minor things that I can't remember. That test gave me only 7.5 hours.
I think that is pretty modest usage. Any average mp3 user would do the same thing. Yet, I only got 7.5 out of the possible 2. I don't like the sounds of that.
I'm running another test right now with the same conditions above, and I'll let you guys know what I get.

I have an itouch 4th gen and its stuck on the low battery screen. I charged for the entire night and it still displays the low battery image. I tried plugging into my computer and restore it but it says error. Also, my computer cant even recognize it

So it's stuck in the low battery screen and it cant turn on.
My computer cant recognize my device and restoring couldnt work.
Tried holding the home button and the turn on/off button, didnt work.

Every iPod comes with complimentary, single-incident telephone technical support within 90 days of your iPod purchase. If you also purchased AppleCare, then your warranty is extended for technical support and hardware coverage for two years from the original purchase date of your iPod.
Suggest that you take full advantage of the above.

What is going on the my battery life, after installing Mavericks, what a drain!!!

What is going on the my battery life, after installing Mavericks, what a drain!!!

You can try resetting the SMC and NVRAM.

You can also try running the short and/or extended Apple hardware test by holding D button while booting up and then following the instructions.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1509
If that doesn't work (seems not extremely likely that it will) you can backup and try reinstalling a fresh OS.
If that still doesn't work maybe the battery is bad. If you don't feel like messing with all that just take it to Apple. They should have a test they can perform.

Satellite Pro L40 - What is a average battery runtime?

Hi there,
I just recently received my Satellite Pro L40 and am just wondering what the average battery runtime is? Once fully charged it only seems to be able to handle 1hour max. Is this normal?
The laptop I had before was the same, but my friends laptop, which is more than a year older than mine, runs for more than 3 hours on a fully charged battery.
Is there a fault??
Thanks

Hi
It is not easy to answer this question because the battery working time depends from the notebook usage. You should know that you will be able to run the notebook much longer on battery power using only some common applications like Word or Internet Explorer.
Playing games, watching DVDs or burning the CD/DVD waste more battery power because the performance of the single devices is much higher!!!!
Fact is that the Pro L40 notebook was equipped with high-tech parts and devices. The notebook supports a strong Intel Pentium Dual-Core CPU, huge HDD, nice GPU and and and
Furthermore you should know that the preinstalled Vista OS eats many resources and waste more battery power as the Win XP!!!
All this factors has a influence on the battery working time.
Last but not least you should know that there are different batteries on the market.
If you want to increase the battery performance buy a stronger battery!!!

Average battery life of 3GS?

How long should I expect the battery to last in an iPhone 3GS while in Airplane Mode? Since upgrading to 4.1, my phone's battery will discharge completely overnight, even if left in Airplane mode.
I am not asking for any fixes (I've already performed a number of the suggested fixes in this forum and I have spoken w/Apple tech support), nor am I suggesting that my battery life is directly related to the upgrade; I just want to know for purposes of comparison what other users are experiencing.

Thank you for sharing your experiences, Alain. At this time I have a replacement 3GS while Apple tries to figure out the problem with mine. In all likelihood I will probably end up keeping the replacement. Before iTunes would allow me to restore from backup on the new/replacement phone, I had to upgrade the OS to 4.1.
The first night, the battery was 100% and I left the phone on all night (not in Airplane mode, Bluetooth off, push notification for mail off) and I had 30% battery life left after about 8 hours. It's an improvement over what I had been experiencing on my old phone, but still not ideal by any stretch.
I will heed your advice and on this phone I won't open the Game Center. I'd like to delete it altogether if I could!
If the battery drain worsens on this new phone, I will try resetting and restoring as you suggest, though I found that the apps don't restore properly if you have any folders, and it's a PITA to reorganize them.

I just replaced my battery yesterday, but I am still getting the same battery life of about 2.5 hours. When I first got the laptop, I was getting atleast 6-7 hours.
Can anyone tell what is wrong? The stats are from the newly replaced battery

Hi katsoccer92,
The first thing I suggest you do is read neuroanatomist's excellent battery FAQ at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1764220
New batteries can take a few cycles to work up to maximum capacity (and your figures indicate that the batteries maximum capacity is a little lower than you would expect, so maybe it still has some room for improvement).
In a situation like yours it is important to calibrate the battery when you first get it - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490 I also often recalibrate again after the first week when the battery has settled down a bit, and then every couple of months thereafter. If your battery's full charge capacity isn't up around 4500mAh after a week then it may have been old stock or otherwise defective.
But usage patterns have a huge impact on charge life.
If , for example, you are watching a lot more "flash" based videos on line these days then you can expect a dramatic fall in computer run time. "Flash" plugins chew up a heap of CPU time, and accordingly can flatten your battery faster than a politician can break a promise!
Bluetooth is another real battery muncher, and so, of course, is anything like an external drive or other device powered by the computers USB or firewire ports (Elgato EyeTVs , unpowered hubs, bus powered scanners, etc etc). The internal iSight camera is a real power chomper too.

I have a ipad 4th gen with the lightning charging port. I have realised how long it takes to charge and the poor battery life which means I can't take my ipad anywhere. Is there a case that is available that will charge my ipad? I know they are out there

I have a ipad 4th gen with the lightning charging port. I have realised how long it takes to charge and the poor battery life which means I can't take my ipad anywhere. Is there a case that is available that will charge my ipad? I know they are out there for older iPads with the 30pin charger but I can't find one for the lighning 8pin charger.

I don't know what you mean by "poor battery life". If your iPad is working properly you should get 9-10 hours of life.

Has anyone found a solution to the poor battery life in Mavericks?

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has found a reliable solution to the poor battery life after updating to Mavericks. I tried to have the Mac shutdown by letting it go all the way dead and then charge it back up but it still is lousy. To literally see the battery guage go down in such a short period of time is surprising as I didn't have this in my previous OS. My machine is a five month old Macbook Pro Retina. I want to say I started seeing this change after installing the last Mail update for Mavericks. I definitely didn't encounter it after the initial update to Mavericks.
Thoughts, comments, ideas?
Ed

Read through the posts on the right side of the page under 'More Like This'. Several fixes have been mentioned amongst them. But as there was an issue in Mountain Lion that was rectified with an update then it may just be a case of waiting to see if Apple issue a solar update for Mavericks. Remember it has only been out two weeks so I would doubt that if there is an update coming for it that they would release it without thorough testing.
Cheers

When I downloaded PhotoShop CC to my iMac it was suppose to include Lightroom. Lightroom was already running as a free trial. Now the trial has expired and PSCC asks for the Lightroom serial number. What to do?

When I downloaded PhotoShop CC to my iMac it was suppose to include Lightroom. Lightroom was already running as a free trial. Now the trial has expired and PSCC asks for the Lightroom serial number. What to do?

Lets clear a couple of things up first.
1, You have the Photographers CC subscription which gives you access to PSCC and the current version of Lightroom.
2. PSCC does not include Lightroom.
Now what you will need to do is delete the Lightroom app on your iMac and restart the Mac. Then you can d/load Lightroom from the CC app.

Which one of these phones has the best battery lif...

I am going to get a Nokia phone from "O2" store tomorrow. I will either get the Nokia 2700, Nokia 5130 or the Nokia 3120.
The dying Nokia that I am replacing I have had since 2005 and the battery usually lasted over a week between charges. The phone was an inexpensive one, €60 or something. I expect this kind of performance in my new phone.
Which of these phones have the best battery life?

I would vote for 5130 XpressMusic. 5130 and 2700 are on par in terms of battery life. Feature-wise, the former is a tad better. But, it's all about your preference, and the cost.
