Why does my iPad 2 get worse battery life with iOS 7???

This new update has way too much white on the screen even when fully dimmed it seems to use more battery than before. Can there be an update to change that?
And in case anybody asks, NO, my battery has been properly taken care of. Charged perfectly each time. So that's not the issue.

Don't know how much the tips in this article http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/19/ios-7-battery-life-fix/ might help but it's worth a look.

Why never used iPad has 85% battery life left?

Hello everyone,
I've turned on my new iPad for the first time, just after taking it out of the new sealed box. And the first thing that took my attention was that the battery life was 85% left (a little "thing" in the top right corner).
(Prior to that, as the new device, I thought I would need to charge it before I even use it, but I learnt from user guide that I don' t need to do that.)
Anyway, so my worry is- why was there not a 100% battery life left on the never used iPad?
Thank you!

Why does my ipad and appleTv work badly with youtube ?

Why does my ipad an apple tv work so badly with youtube, its frozen all the thime

Make sure the wifi signal is strong enough as the iPad uses twice the normal bandwidth (receiving youtube video and sending it to the Apple TV).
if it isn't strong enough, try to move your wifi router closer to the Apple TV room or get an additional router.

Why does my ipad get hot

My IPad gets hot. I don't mean warm, I mean really, really warm on the front and the back. You can feel the heat through the case I have it in. Last night the battery was about dead the the IPad was so hot I took it out of the case trying to cool it off. Is this normal?

No, and it may signal trouble. It's the battery that gets hot, if it overheats, it can kill itself and the device with it.
If you have had it for a couple of years, time for a check up and maybe a new battery. Cost about $100

Have iPad 2 and also iPad. Why does old iPad get stronger wifi signal?

Why does my new iPad 2 have a low wifi signal, while sitting next to first iPad that has strong wifi signals? All settings are the same.

I don't think its any stronger or weeker I jus think the iPad 2's WiFi meter seems to be more accurate.
That's unlikely since the iOS and hardware in this area should be identical.
If you are having reception problems take your iPad2 to an Apple store for some testing.

TS3274 Why does my iPad get hot?

MY iPad gets ver hot , could it be a faulty battery?

I've just joined the community today because my iPad (latest model, a Christmas 2012 present) has started to get really hot. I first noticed it on a relatively hot (for the UK) day last week when I'd left it charging, with its cover removed, on my bed. The mattress is memory foam, which may have been a contributory factor. In order to allow air circulation, I normally prop it up vertically without its cover when charging.
It got hot again about an hour ago, when I was simply browsing, so I looked for advice here. I found a few lengthy discussions on the subject, which appears to be fairly common, and followed advice to cut the brightness down to 50% and set auto-brightness to 'off'.
It is currently in use minus its protective cover and has cooled down already. The cover's back panel has an apple-shaped cut-out, presumably for ventilation, but might it be better to use a cover that leaves the back exposed altogether? I still have my 'L' plates on!

Getting more battery life with Mighty Mouse

Hi,
is there a way to make the Mighty Mouse read accurately the level of energy left in its batteries?? I have over 20 AA batteries of any kind (rechargeable or not, lithium or not, 1.2v or 1.5v, 2300 mah or else, etc.) and they all read "good-70%" when I test them with a simple battery tester. Still, the Mighty Mouse reads them very low, if not dead. What to do with that??
Thanks.

How interesting. I've been relying on the computer reading as valid. I guess I'll have to get a battery tester myself and check it. You might bring the batteries into a nearby Apple Store and show the techs there what's happening. If you do that, post again with whatever you hear. If I can get the same results, I'll bring the mouse and the batteries into an Apple Store and let them figure it out.

Why does my multitasking gets stuck after updating into ios 7.1

Whenever I go to multitasking to close the apps my iPad gets stuck,but then its normal again

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

Why does my iPad get hot when it's not in use?

I keep my iPad 4 in a carrying case. It is set to lock at 2 minutes and to turn off when the case is closed. It gets really hot when I put it in the nylon computer case that is made to carry the iPad.

Does any apps are running the background? If yes, check them and close them. Are you using it under any high levels of temperature?

HT4527 why does my iPad library not fully sync with my new iMac? Fed up of trying to get all my tunes onto my new computer.

bought new imac computer and have an ipad and an old itouch. I cannot seem to get my ipad library to fully sync to the new imac. Only the purchased items go across. I have tried to look this up but i have over 1800 tunes yet only 496 are showing up on my imac now. probably being really dense but it is bugging me.
Any ideas where i can go to look to resolve. ? Thanks very much Bridget

HT1420 why does my ipad get ejected when I click on the menu arrow in the ipad button of itunes?

I only run itunes to backup my ipad just before letting it install a new os version, but every time, i try to use the down arrow on the ipad button it ejects my ipad. isn't this weird?

Hi yABmeiqzz,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the issue you are describing. If you are talking about the smaller button with an underlined triangle inside of the larger iPad button in iTunes, that is normal behavior; that is the Eject icon used on Mac computers and in other Apple software.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

How can I extend my battery life with IOS 7 on my Ipad?

I didn't have this issue when I was using IOS 6. Ever since I upgraded the battery just drains away without me even using it. I've never had this problem before. I even went in and shut off all my apps etc.

When turning off any location or notification services, if you aren't turning it right off completely, be sure to check thru the hidden list and then those off as well. I can't look at which it's in because I did this last night on my iPhone and can't read my phone anymore. It's an eye strain to look into that.
There is a hidden one in location, called favorite places. That's a waste, unless you want it.
Turn wifi off when leaving the house to go to places where there is no wifi. It's constantly searching.
Turn airdrop off as well.
Last night I found really good tips on imore.com site, but I lost the page it was on to copy here. The result is I actually woke up this morning to an almost full battery on my iPhone. I need the list to do my iPad now.

Why does apple ipad and iphone have problems with comcast?

We attempt to send pictures through our comcast wifi account and gets to about 90%and freezes. Have reset modem, and router, have turned off phone and reset it. Have switched to 4G then pictures will send. Only has problem when connected to wifi. As my ipad is wifi, I cannot send pictures at all with it.
Did not have this problem until iOS 6 update.
Any suggestions?

My iPad and other devices have no problems with Comcast, but I didn't get my WiFi router from them. If you did, your router may need a firmware update, or you may need to get a different model of router.
Regards.
