Why does the e-mail app drain my battery?

I have a itouch 4. i have reset it a few times. i have rebooted it a few times. I have turned off the battery-draining apps. Despite all of this -- the itouch battery drains in minutes when I use e-mail.

David

Well Mail drains your battery if you have 'Push' turned on. Push basically contacts your server in the background to check if you have a new e-mail and so it drains out your battery. You can turn it off and select Fetch manually.

  • Why does the South African App Store have so little apps. And why are they no games?

    I live in South Africa and the App Store is pathetic. There are no Games at all. Why is the U.S App Store SO much better? I feel like I wasted my money on my iPad.

  • Why does the Creative Cloud app steal focus multiple times when it starts up?

    I am running Windows 8.1. When my system boots up, I've set Creative Cloud to launch at startup. I like to have the CC app running in the background so I can keep all of my apps up to date.
    The problem is that the CC app steals the operating system's focus multiple times when it launches. For example, right after I log in to Windows, I'll usually launch Chrome. If I start typing something in the address bar, I am interrupted halfway through as the CC app launches and steals the focus. So then I reset the OS focus to Chrome and start typing again. And then CC usually steals the focus again after a couple of seconds.
    I've verified that it is CC by disabling launch-at-startup. Doing this makes the problem go away.
    This is completely obnoxious and unnecessary. If an app launches in the background, it shouldn't steal the focus once, let alone twice. This is software development 101. We are paying good money and should not have to deal with problems like this.

  • Why does the new photo app not allow all the photos on my iMac to appear on iPhone and iPad?

    Imac with OS X Yosemite 10.10.3
    New Photo App has over 9000 photos but only 180 or so appear on iPhone and iPad. Why. I have sufficient iCloud storage.

    How did you import the photos?
    Are the missing photos perhaps referenced? Then they cannot upload to iCloud.
    You can check with a smart album, if you have any photos in the library, that cannot upload to iCloud.

  • Why does the Adobe Revel app for OS X advise me to backup?

    I was under the impression that Revel was a cloud service, and therefore the pictures would be safe and sound there. Is this mostly to protect users from themselves if they go and delete the pictures from Revel?

    This is a way for you to have a backup copy on your computer of what is stored in the cloud in Revel. Some users like to disable this and others like the peace of mind of knowing there are two copies of everything.

  • Why does the Mail.app CC: field puts me first on the CC: list although I was not ?

    Why does the Mail.app CC: field always rearranges the list so I am first on the CC: list although the sender intentionally did not ?
    I did not see how and where to de-activate this unnecessary intrusion in the company's communication codes.
    iOS on my iphone, correctly leaves my name where it is in the CC: list.

    Hi starbux48,
    Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

  • Why does the Mail App suck ?

    Why the **** doesn't this work !?
    I'm trying to manage my email through the default mail app in iOS. When I tried to delete more that 90 emails.
    The ******* app crashed. I tried it again, thought it was a fluke.
    SAME ******* THING HAPPENED AGAIN !
    So then I thought I'd close all my apps, restart my iPhone and maybe that help.
    Nope ! It was a ******* trick  ! Happened to me again.
    Then I tried to delete 50 emails. The app crashed again.....
    How ?!?!?!?
    Worst part was that I had to tediously pick EVERY SINGLE EMAIL ONE AT A TIME !
    Wasn't there a "select all" button in iOS at one time ? Where did it go ?!? Why isn't it there to begin with !?!?!?

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

    Why does the content of my emails not show on the main Mail page but does in the Inbox list of all emails?

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!
