Why is my battery life dieing every 5 minutes. What should I do?

I have had my iPod for about 3 years now. After the one year warranty my battery life slowly started draining. Then I decided to take it to apple support but it didn't help I did every thing the man told me to do. Still my phone has not worked. Now I need a new battery if its possible. Or maybe if they fix it this time it will work. I love apple products and I could not live without them. Hopefully they can fix it.

You can try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
However, I suspect the battery needs replacing.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the battery for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. Y can purchase a replacment battery for about $10

HT4623 why is my battery life dieing so quickly

I recently updated my ipad2. Since then, my battery life dies so quickly. I can use it once, close it, then open it again and the battery life is down 40%. I used to get two days of life before the update. I closed out all the "Location" request, the auto updates to apps, everything I thought was draining the battery life. Why?

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.

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.

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.

I upgraded my macbook pro from OS Lion to OS Mavericks. When unplugged, it heats up exceedingly and the battery life is extremely short. What to do?

Installation of the new OSX is very heavy hdd load, in addition spotlight reindexes all the files on your computer - it may be a few hours. If in the future will be the same macbook hot, you should contact your nearest Apple Authorized Service Provider.
May be required to clean notebook cooling system.
You can also install any monitoring utility sensors to your mac such as Hardware Monitor and look at the value of the temperature sensors.

I upgraded to iphone 4s and installed iOS 6 but now my battery life is significantly reduced. What can I do to fix this problem?

I restored my settings my I got the new phone but I think I heard that with the iOS 6 updated that can be an issue and it is better to start from scratch rather than restore your settings.

reset all settings
settings- general- reset - reset all settings
now reconnect to wifi
settings - wifi- click network name - enter password - join
if issue persists backup info and restore via itunes

What have you figured out? Anything? What you show just shows a pretty quiet system except for firefox having a bunch of tabs open. You've got some page ins and outs so you maybe your'e hitting your HD with swap files more than what you think?
I think something like coconut battery app or something like it will tell you the charge cycles on the battery. How many do you have?
Lastly, are you using any extensions like ad blocker, or click to flash?

Is it normal for iPhone 4S to lose 1% battery life after 2-3 minutes of using?

Is it normal for iPhone 4S to lose 1% battery life after 2-3 minutes of using? So in 2 hours, 24 minutes usage and 15 hours, 17 minutes in standby mode, the battery became 68%...

sounds plausable
also you can't really 100% trust it's batt% batteries are an analog technology the only thing the iphone can judge how much batt is left is by measuing amp amount the batt is producing and then over time estimating how long before it's zore
but anyway Its not wise to not put a battery for charge before bed when it's 12%
if your reason is you think it's good for batteries to be empty before charging then you believe in a myth and in the process damaging the battery in your ios device

My MBA keeps shutting off every 5 minutes. what is happening? I can't do any work done because of it. :(

Same problem for me, it happened after 3 weeks.
I had to call Apple, althrough they couldn't solve the problem by phone.
Genius bar were full so they sent me to a local store.
Looks like it has something to do with the graphic card. It occured when I plugged my macbook to my iMac for screen the 1st time
11 days later I'm still waiting to get my macbook back. Hope you can get it faster!
Very disapointed with the support quality and product quality.

My iphone4s keeps rebooting every 3 minutes; what might be wrong

My iphone 4s keeps rebooting every 3 minutes; what might be wrong

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check that the HDMI cable is seated correctly at each end and try another cable if the problem persists.

I have had my Iphone 4s for a little over a week now. It just DIED...Can some one please tell me why? the battery life was at 90% I sure do not want to lose all my picture's of my Grand-Daughter, or everything that I have purchased on it. Can someone help

I have had my IPhone 4S for a little over a week now. My battery life was at 90% It Died, Dead, Does not work at all. Can someone tell me what in the heck is going on here. I have had all of the Apple Phones and They all had their little quirks..But This is ridiculous is it just with the Black 4S or the White 4S or both. Help?

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
Restart / Reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:
Backing up, Updating and Restoring
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first...

Why is my battery life worse since upgrading to ios7

After upgrading to IOS7, my iphone 5 battery life is 3-4 hours of standby use, not the expected level. It worked fine for 8 months, then since the upgrade it is pathetic. any ideas why?

Why is the battery life dropping so fast on my iphone 4s. Just started all of a sudden today, never did it before. I already double-clicked the bottom button to see what was running and nothing was running. I checked multiple times and turned apps. off.

All of a sudden today my battery life just started dropping off on my iphone 4s. I charge it every night. I double clicked the circle button on the bottom to see what was running and there was minimal running but i turned them off anyway. I checked back in a little bit, the same, turned the couple things off again which were like phone and messages... nothing major running. Battery percentage still plummeted til it just turned off.

Are there apps on your phone right now?
I think one of your apps is causing this.
The only way to find out is to delete them all and then add them one by one to see what app maybe causing this.
Especially if you've gone thru 3 iphones already.
When you restored as new - did you sync back your stuff - apps/music or did you restore from backup?
