    iPhone 5 getting really hot and battery charge not lasting very long at all??

    Try some of these to save battery time:
    Settings>Notifications>[Turn off any notifications you don't need]
    Settings>General>Software Update (Make sure you're up to date)
    Settings>Brightness & Wallpaper> Auto-Brightness on (And that your brightness is not to the max)
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Turn off/Stop apps from using it
    Settings>Bluetooth>Off
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Fetch New Data>Manually
    Settings>Wi-Fi> Off (When you don't need internet when you're out and about)
    To stop overheating, note these:
    Operating Temperatures: 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)
    Non-Operating Temperatures: -20° to 45° C (-4° to 113° F)
    Hope this helps!

  • Hello, i have a macbook pro 15 inches, for the past 1 year. But since then i have been experiencing weird problems. firstly my battery does not last very long, my laptop heats up a lot and very fast,the cursor behaves oddly and the screen changes onitsown

    The screen changes on it's own, the cursor gets stuck on a word and gets me the meaning of it with a dictionary. if i am on google chrome, the screen would go back to the previous page i visited even without i do anything!  it also goes on the launchpad and desktop without me touching it! with no hands on the board. i am a student and i cant figure out the problem. i would really appreciate if anyone could help me on this asap!
    Thank you.

    If nothing else try a smc reset:

  • Can't Figure Out Why iPhone 5 Battery Will Not Last

    New to the community and looking for some extra insight into my problems.
    Cliffs Notes: iPhone 5 won't last more than 4-5 hours on a single charge.
    When I got my iPhone 5 on launch day I set it up as a new phone and did not restore from a backup. Only iCloud was able to sync my contacts, calanders, etc.... I setup up everything while hooked up to my MacBook Pro with iTunes. The first day the phone lasted almost 8 hours, it was mostly on WiFi while at the house. It seems whenever I don't use WiFi and am on the 4G network here in Albuquerque, NM that I can't go more than 4-5 hours on a battery charge. The signal is usually 4 bars or more, AT&T. I can't get anywhere near the reported 8 horus of use. The battery also seems to drain too fast while in standby over night. I loose about 10% over 8 hours at night. I should be at 4-5% for 8 hours.
    For troubleshooting:
    I have had the phone replaced, didn't seem to solve anything.
    I've setup the replacement phone as new and didn't help
    I've turned off all services like Siri, Push, Location, Notifications, etc... and the battery still drains
    I've uninstalled most every app except for a handful of critical apps to me and doesn't help
    I've used the reset settings and hasn't helped
    My thought is it is related to the cellular data being on. I get better battery when connected to WiFi, but when on cellular data it kills the battery.
    I've been running the Carat app for a few days to see if it reports anything.
    About the only thing I haven't tried is doing a DFU restore and setting up as new and not doing anything after that to watch the battery life.
    Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

    Have you tried resetting the phone?
    Resetting Your Device:  Hold the home button + the lock button for about 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  You will not lose any data or current settings.

  • When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but when it's back on it searches and finds signal only recently doing this and because it's searching for signal battery not lasting very long please help

    When in sleep mode iPhone 4 loses signal but as soon as its on again it searches and finds signal easily but because of this not getting calls or text msges and because it's searching for signal all the time battery not lasting

    Here are some observations and a suggestion.
    1)  I mentioned before, that the number of views of this discussion forum is fast approaching 100,000.  I suppose relative to all iPhones sold that is not a great percentage, but 100,000 still sounds pretty impressive to me.  Consider also that many people probably have this same Sim problem and are not viewing this discussion forum because thay do not know it exists.  How many people are REALLY experiencing this problem?  Who knows.  But I suspect it is more that 100,000.
    2)  To the best of my knowledge, Apple does not consult these forums as a guide to awareness of product performance.  It may be company policy, but most of the time when I speak to an Apple employee they seem remarkably unaware of the "Top Stories" in the Apple Discussion Forum.  This, despite the fact that my personal experience with customer service at Apple is excellent.  So, as much as we of this discussion forum are confident SOMEONE important at Apple is reading all our posts and taking them to heart...I am not so sure.
    3)  I have been told over and over that the best way to gain Apple's attention regarding a problem is to post a comment on their Feedback Site.  One comment about a problem is pretty worthless.  100,000 comments on the same issue, I'm guessing, will really get their attention.
    4)  Some folks have mentioned a recall to address this problem.  Although such a thing is always a possibility, I don't see it happening.  Why?  When the brakes on a Toyota don't work, or that Toyata starts to accelerate without driver intention...well, that involves human life and the stakes are quite high.  For many reasons you would see the automotive industry eventually be forced into a recall program under such a situation.  But, a phone APPEARS to not nearly be such a life and death device.  Or is it?  My daughter's iPhone 4S developed a "SIM FAILURE" on the same day her car broke down in the middle of the very rural area we live at around 10:00 pm.  She is 17 years old and was coming home from high school play practice.  You can imagine the anxiety I and her mother felt when she did not arrive home on time.  She eventually walked about a quarter mile to a house of a stranger and had to ask to use their phone to call us.  Now, I am not saying that strangers where I live are not to be trusted.  But, in addition to being worried out of my mind, I was not happy that an inoperative iPhone 4S caused my daughter to be put in this situation.  My biggest concern now is...when will my daughter's iPhone become inoperative again due to SIM FAILURE?
    5)  The more folks in this discussion forum who post a comment about this issue in Apple's feedback site the more pressing this issue is going to be perceived by Apple.  So, I like others, encourage all of you to do so.  If this seems like a lot of effort, I offer you these few sentences below that you could just copy and paste into the feedback site.
    The link to feedback site is:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Feel free to use copy/amend/whatever the following as you wish:
    Dear Apple,
    I wish to register a strong concern about my iPhone's unpredictable inoperability due to failures somehow associated with it's SIM technology.  For me, I do not consider this just a significant lack of convenience, but a significant safety issue.  Should I need my phone in an emergency situation where it is experiencing  a SIM FAILURE, I believe the iPhone will have put me at risk.  I would ask you to please give fixing this problem your greatest priority and effort.
    Sincerely, XXXX

    I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

  • Since I downloaded OS X lion, why is my battery life on my Mac Book Pro suffered

    Why has my battery life suffered, since I downloaded OS X Lion on my Mac Book Pro?    How can I increase the battery life?

    Get gfxCardStatus. It is a free menu bar application that keeps track of which graphics card your MacBook Pro is using at any given time.
    <http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/33905/gfxcardstatus>
    When you are running on the battery, you want to make sure you are using the "Integrated" graphics unit, as it is more power efficient.
    You might also want to run Applications -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor and see if there are any processes which are consuming an excess amount of CPU non-stop.

  • Why is my battery life worse after software update.

    Why is my battery life worse following software update?

    Dont Bother Audre
    If you have updated to 6.1.1 and your phone is outside the warrenty perios, then you WILL have issues, so you take your phone to Apple and they will give you a replacement for £139 and they will also say its much cheaper what you paid for your handset!!!!
    Just wait for the next update - If they have a heart and care for the 4s users, they will fix the battery issue too
    Thanks

  • Why is my battery life so short on Iphone 4?

    Why is my battery life so short on my new I phone 4 with Verizon?

    if you have checked the specs and it all works out, you can do a number of things. first i would suggest that for a dat you turn off 3G and cellular data to see if your service is running it  down. you can do thing by going to settings-general-network-then turning them off. if this still doesn't work then try running it all the way down to 0% then giving it a full charge. i noticed that if regularly if you run the app Battery Pro Boost Magic to see whats taking up so much of your battery. if all of this fails to work then your battery might be defective so contact apple and try to get it replaced.

  • MacBook Pro 2.0Ghz runs warm, battery life not bad?

    http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/security/investigator/archives/007864.asp
    The MacBook Pro 2.0Ghz runs warmer, battery life not too bad!!!! You have to love that packaging...

    With Windows XP machines the CPU has three basic speed modes (with many other power saving features)
    Full speed , in this case 2GHZ
    low speed: 600MHZ or 800MHZ,
    and 'dynamic' mode (throttles the cpu form around 100MHZ to 2GHZ on the fly according to demand).
    So on a Windows machine you can set the cpu to run at 600MHZ constant which is good for heat issues ( and battery life)
    Of course 'dynamic' mode also is good fo heat and the battery (nice to have options)
    In practice these features work well and have been present in the mobile chips for quite a while now.

  • What should I do if my compaq presario 319 battery could not last for 15 minutes?

    My compaq presario notebook PC series pre-installed with windows vista home premium edition battery can not last for 15 minutes when am using my laptop. I want to know if you could give me a possible solution. 
    Mark: 319 Compaq
    Series Number: CN9270W12
    Thanks and waiting to hearing from you.

    First try claibrating the battery, use the safe mode method on this page
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=4125509&docname=c0081...
    Once calibration is done and you have re-charged it fully, check the Status of the battery
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&product=4125509&docname=c0082...
    if this does not get any more run time you need to replace the battery.
