Why is my battery discharging so rapidly after iOS 5 download?

Why is my iPad1 battery discharging after iOS 5 download?

It is not just you - something is wrong...
I noticed a significant difference.  Normally my iPad 2 would sit in my bag overnight and drain just a few percentages.  Now it drains almost completely.  I have turned off all services, fetch, location, etc - it helps a little, but the battery life is worse than before.  When using my iPad 2 during normal usage, I could get through a couple flights and still have more than 50% battery - now I am lucky if it makes it the same time before getting to 0%.  Something is wrong with the new iOS 5.  I wish I wouldn't have updated...

  • Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    Why is my battery draining so quickly after updating to Mavericks?

    1. Check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement. If the power adapter is connected almost all the time, the battery may need replacing even though the cycle count is not too high.
    2. Follow these instructions, or these for OS X 10.9 or later.
    3. You can also try resetting the SMC.
    4. Make sure your system is up to date in Software Update.
    5. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

    Try to reset the device:
    *Device reset*
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • TS2621 why my outgoing mail server not working after ios 6 upgraded

    why my outgoing mail server not working after ios 6 upgraded

    Ask your carrier to send you the settings over wifi and then install them that way.
    I'm on giffgaff and I used the giffgaff app from the store to sort this out.
    Overall though I must say Apple has let itself down on this as why isn't something written in the ios script that keeps the original settings??
    Very Poor indeed and I held off using Apple products for years for this very reason!!

  • Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7?

    Why does my battery die so quickly with iOS 7? Charged to 100%. Unplugged and opened up an hour later. Down to 88%. Why? No apps open.

    I think it might also be a bug, my 4S went down to 1% I could actually see it go down from 18% just like a watch. The phone started at about 60% and went down to 1% in about an hour but the useage still stated I had over 6 hours of stand by time, when I plugged in the phone to charge it jumped from 1% to 27%.

  • Just paid $55.00 to get e-mail fixed after IOS download , how to get money back from Apple?

    After IOS download 2weeks ago, I could not send any mail. Do not have warranty, it is 13 months old.  I paid a computer expert $55.00 to fix it.  I think Apple should give me an ITunes card worth that amount.  what do you think?

    I think you are responsible for the $55. It was your choice to pay someone. A software glitch is NOT covered by any warranty, period.

  • Battery discharging rapidly after ios 7.1 upgrade

    I upgraded  IPHONE 5 to IOS 7.1 and now battery is getting discharged fast-need to recharge twice a day.
    Is Apple coming out with further upgrade patch to resolve issue?

    ref Skydiver 119 comment: No computer just an iPad. I am not interested in iTunes.
    iPad is locked after the download and supposedly during installation while recharging batt.
    I can leave it plugged in and wait?
    I did manage, finally, to shut down by holding down both controls.
    But on replugging in for a charge, the same iTunes icon and plug-in symbol appears.
    Truly frustrating.

  • IPhone 4 battery still draining fast after ios 5.0.1 update

    5.0.1 update did not help, my battery still drains just as fast as it did on 5.0. My phone used to last 2 days no problem, now it lasts about 6 hours, I could go to bed at 5% and wake up with 3%, now if I got to bed with 25% it's dead by morning. I have all iCloud services turned off, only Maps turned on for location services, notifications for Phone, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, CNBC RT and Words Free. I have 2 email accounts, one is a pop3 and the other Exchange, both are set to pull every hour and preview is turned off. Is the issue with notifications? the only thing that has changed from 4 to 5 is I have notifications turned on and my reminders & tasks are synced with Exchange. I'm starting to think the issue is with notifications, I tried to turn off email notifications for the lock screen but they still show up.
    Are we getting another update after 5.0.1 soon for the continued battery drain issue?
    Email notifications continue to display for locked screen even though the option says Off, is there something else I'm missing?

    Do we really need another thread, with over 7,000 posts already on other threads?

  • My ipad battery drains much faster after iOS 7 upgrade

    my ipad battery drains 4x faster after ios7 upgrade.....how do I fix this? 

    Dig into your settings. iOS7 defaults a lot of stuff on that you may not need. Such as tons of notifications, background app updates, background app refresh. Turn extra stuff off and see if that helps.

  • HT1688 iphone 5 shutting down when battery is at 49% after iOS 7 update

    I am having some problems with this new ios 7. After my phone hits 49%, it shuts down to the point that I have to connect my charger in order to restart it. Once I connect the charger, it starts right away. I tried a hard reset  and it didnt work. I tried setting it up as new iphone and nothing. Apple hasnt aknolewdge this as a problem but there are hundreds of cases out there. Does anyone knows any solution for this or am I going to have to wait for a new update?

    I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
    If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue.  To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new.  This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings.  Then test it out for a day or two.  If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced.  If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself:  http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
    If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue.  This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself.  What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs. 
    But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device:  http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
    Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below:  "IPSW with iTunes"
    And your done.
    Problem solved.
    I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
    I hope this helps.

  • Battery health decreased rapidly after charging problems.

    Hy a few weeks ago the health of my mid 2010 MacBook Pro was still 79% which is normal since it has more than 1000 cycles.
    Then following incident happened:
    My battery was almost discharged, 30% or so, so I connected it to the AC power. After a while I wanted to see how much it was charged but the indicator in the corner still indicated the same 30% or so, only when I disconnected it it changed to something in the 80% range. I used my computer for a while like that and I noticed that the battery indicator was not chaning. Only when I connected or disconnected the AC power did it update.
    I decided to reboot the machine and this solved the problem. I recently noticed however that my battery health now dropped to 63% which seems very much in a short period of time.
    I know that normally charger will deliver less current to the battery when it is near 80% in order to prevent overcharging and maintain battery life as much as possible. I wonder however if the drastic decrease could be because of the power management thinking that the battery was only partly charged and thus delivering to much current to an almost full battery? If this is the case do you think that Apple would intervene for the costs of a new battery? I know I would have had to replace it sooner rather than later but this does change a lot I think. My computer is not in warranty anymore and I don't want to pay 49€ for one intervention. There are also no official Apple stores in Belgium and the authorised resellers really don't offer the same service.

    sweex,
    since your battery has over 1000 cycles and has 79% of its original full charge capacity remaining, Apple considers your battery “consumed”; they will not intervene for the cost of a new battery. It’s entirely your decision when to replace your battery, but irregular charging results are to be expected for as long as you use your present battery.
    If no Apple-authorized service center in Belgium offers the option of changing the battery, then you should let Apple know so that they can find an organization who will do so. I don’t know where you are in Belgium, but this search around Brussels shows seven different Apple-authorized service centers which all claim to service Macs, and the one in Aalst is noted as being a Premium service center.

  • IPod Touch 3rd Gen: Battery Draining very rapidly after iOS4 upgrade.

    Hello All,
    Sorry for the long post:
    I was wondering if others are experiencing this issue as well? I have a 3rd gen ipod touch 64gb.
    Prior to the iOS4 upgrade my battery life was very decent. I would easily go a couple(2) days before requiring a full charge on the device even with modest internet, game and music use. As a rule I keep my back light as low as I can stand to conserve battery unless I'm in direct sunlight and have no choice but to bump it up in order to see.
    After the iOS4 upgrade my battery life has been drasticly reduced. Going even 24 hours without plugging the device in is totally out of the question and in many cases I find myself having to plug the device into my laptop or car pretty much any chance I get in order to have uninterupted use of the device while I'm out and about. Although I've never timed my actual use, my usage habbits have not changed as far as I'm concerned.
    I went so far as to exchanging the device at my local bestbuy as I purchased the blacktie protection plan which grants me an exchange of the device for "any" reason; be it manufaturer defect, accidental breakage, or anything really short of losing it. The replacement was a brand new non refurb ipod which I synced and charged fully upon bringing it home. To my suprise, the battery life is just as bad as the ipod I just turned in. I have yet to downgrade to iOS3 but am considering it if only to see if I suddenly see a great improvement of the battery life.
    If anyone is having the issue or has some suggestions other then downgrading please comment. If this is an "unknown" bug/issue/flaw in iOS4 I'm sure apple would like to know about it and I'm assuming they monitor these forums for reports of these issues.
    Thanks!
