Will apple ever acknowledge the issue with premature failure of iphone5 batteries? A lot of people have problems with them dying at random percentages. Mine just died at 33% restarted it now I've been at 1% with non stop use for over an hour!

My battery has been acting ridiculous on my phone. It shuts down at random percentages ranging from 60% down. I'll be using it with plenty of battery life left on the meter then I get the ring of death and it'll show a dead battery icon wanting charged. At this point I either have to plug it in or I have discovered I can hold down the home and lock button for a minute and it'll come back on still showing plenty of charge. I've read a lot of people have this issue. I've seen the recommendation of re calibrating the battery by fully draining and charging multiple times. I've done that with no results. I've also tried the recommendation of resetting the phone and doing a full restore which also doesn't work.
I believe it's either a sub standard battery or possible a software or other hardware issue.
Has anyone ever gotten apple to admit the Iphone5 battery has issue?
I have 9 total apple devices in my household as far back as second gen iPod touch. All of my devices still hold power like new except my iPhone5.

  • Will Apple ever fix the 12/31/200 date RSS Visualizer Screen Saver issue?

    I had to reopen the discussion about the RSS Visualizer:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6474304
    I realize Apple may think the rest of the world (ex. CNN, Digg, etc..) needs to change their RSS feeds, but why not fix the RSS screensaver so that it doesn't default to December 31, 2000 and show only 4 news stories for most feeds? Even most of Apples RSS feeds don't comply. And this is by design?

    Better is to send bug reports and enhancement requests to Apple via its Bug Reporter system. To do the latter, join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure over submitting feedback is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.

  • Will Apple ever support the µFT-System (G1, GH1, GF1, E-P1, E-P2)?

    It seems like Apple is ignoring the Micro-FourThird System for more than one year now - even the Panasonic G1's RAW-Format, the first of all µFT-cameras isn't supporte bei Apple! This is quite scandalous because this system is so well-accepted by the photographers' community that even the manufactures are overrun by the demand and you've to wait to get some. I would not say that µFT changes the market for photographic gear but what we could see is that its obviously filling a long-opened gap between the bridge-cameras with their small noisy sensors and the heavy and bulky SLRs. With a small lens attached µFT bodies like the PEN or GF1 still fit into a jacket's pocket but offering a nearly SLR-quality and the flexibility of interchangeable lenses and the short FFD makes µFT camera bodies as flexible to adopt other lens types as no other interchangeable lens system.
    I don't want to blame other camera concepts - what I want to point out is that µFT is a smart niche as is the Mac, too. A lot of people who think smart buy a Mac and a lot of smart photographers bought µFT equipment in the last year. Every Mac (except for the servers) comes with a really great software setup to make amateur photographers happy and for less than 200 € they can go professional with buying Aperture. Of course, they also could buy Lightroom instead, but that's only half as smart - no system-wide RAW preview, no easy integration into iLife, iWeb, MobileMe etc.
    +Come on, Apple - are you blind and deaf? Listen and see what your customers demand - a smart support for a smart camera system in their favorite OS!+

    And there's no evidence at all that Apple developers read or take the slightest notice of "feedback".
    As far as I can see, the OP was not doing anything other than making a rhetorical plea for Apple to wake up and support an important class of camera. I'm sure that he is under no illusion that it will lead to anything other than helping his blood pressure.
    The Feedback route is the way Apple has designed to let users address issues with Apple Engineers. http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html
    You will not get a reply, but at least you have submitted your information/request in a more useful manner than posting in these Forums.
    I don't think the OP was addressing an issue with Apple engineers, so the feedback route was not relevant. Whether it is more useful to submit requests via that route remains to be seen - I'm sure plenty of people have requested that their MFT camera be supported, and the response has been zilch.
    At this point it seems just as valuable to do something useless but therapeutic as it is to send blind messages to /dev/null at apple.com.

  • Will apple ever get the youtube back

    I have been using my ipad for almost a year I updated my ipad software and youtube is gone but before I had a ipod touch for 4 years and been using youtube for ever do you think that apple will get the old youtube back. Google and Apple are the biggest stores in the world you think that you two would agree on something  Its not that you need money please get the old youtube back please or at least make it possible I think its stupied that you added a clock we already have a clock on the top of the device that app is stupied please please please apple and google work something out so that we can get the old youtube back.

    The youTube App is gone because Apple's license to use it has expired.
    YouTube is still accessible on the iPad via Safari (or any other browser) at http://m.youtube.com/
    Sign in at this site and your favorites, etc. will still be present. Save the site icon to the iPad Home screen and you will have a replacement for the youTube App.
    There is also an iPhone youTube App in the App Store which works on the iPad as well as the Jasmine App.

  • Will HP ever acknowledge the facts about their defective Realtek audio chips?

    This is not a software issue. I just did a system factory restore and the sound still doesn't work. Fess Up HP!

    Hi hn333,
    What PC model do you have? What OS?
    What do you mean by it doesn't work?
    Can you tell us more about what is going on? When did the sound stop working? Did any updates install before it stopped?
    ...an HP employee just trying to help where I can, but not speaking on behalf of HP.

  • I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Question
    I have lost all of my bookmarks from the drop-down menu. It says it is empty, but never have I deleted them. And when I bookmark a page it does not save it. Please help

    Ok this is bizzare!
    Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
    So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
    AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
    I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :(

  • TS4611 I have just received my second MacBook Air 11" the Wifi connection keeps dropping. Also after 3 meters away it keeps searching for network! It is the second try and the same issue. Will Apple ever come up with a solution?

    I have just received my second MacBook Air 11" the Wifi connection keeps dropping. Also, after 3 meters away from the rooter it keeps searching for network! It is the second try and the same issues. Will Apple ever come up with a solution? There is a program pack for the connection issue but I cannot believe that this computer wifi keeps connected only while nearby the rooter!

    Applied this update?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4611?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    If the update is installed aready, you may have to wait until OS X 10.8.5
    update if and when it is relased.
    Best.

  • TS2755 When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy. I'll never buy another if I can text using SMS or MMS

    When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy if you like texting family and friends. I'll never buy another one if I can't text using SMS or MMS.  Is there any hope for a patch or new operating system to fix this issue, or an app to use with iPad Air

    Hi...
    Keep in mind Flash is a third party plugin not written by Apple. Apple is not responsible for incompatibility issues with the Flash plugin.
    Thoughts on Flash
    Try troubleshooting...
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty ri.
    Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safa

  • Has Apple ever fixed the fan issue that results from upgrading the hard drives on 2009-2010 iMacs?

    Has Apple ever fixed the fan issue that results from upgrading the hard drives on 2009-2010 iMacs?
    My CPU fan defaults to 3000RPM.  I can rev the fan higher with 3rd party Fan controllers, but no lower than 3K.

    OR you can short out the original temp sensor, to make the fans rev at quieter speeds.
    You can also install an optical temp sensor in place of the old one, it will still read temps and adjust the fans accordingly, just not as good as an internal sensor.
    Use something like this:http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-922-9229-Cable-Temp-Sensor-Optical-iMac-27-inch-Late -2009-2010-/111106349896

  • I shifted from a windows to a mac.. I want to add songs to my ipod tpuch 4th gen.. but if i try to sync with itunes it says my songs will be replaced by the new songs.. Is there any way that i can have my previous data safe??

    i shifted from a windows to a mac.. I want to add songs to my ipod tpuch 4th gen.. but if i try to sync with itunes it says my songs will be replaced by the new songs.. Is there any way that i can have my previous data safe??

    Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time.  If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Before doing anything else,  authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
    Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    iOS: How to back up
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for information.

    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. If it hasn't appeared after 30 seconds your phone is probably broken. If something other than an Apple logo appears see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
