I recently bought an 11" iPad Pro. I'm using the USB-C to 3.5mm headphone adapter and keep Apple iPhone wired headphones plugged in. After I close the cover the screen shuts off but my battery drains quickly - about 20% every 24 hours. Is anyone else experiencing this? Feels like a bug. When I...
Is there anyone else with a similar battery issue? My battery is starting to run hot and it is burning through charge quickly. I have sat here surfing the web and looking at email for an hour, and it has gone from 100% to 66% battery in that time. It certainly seemed to last longer before.
It...
i’m excited about the potential battery improvements in iPhone 11.
If, as has been rumored, the 11s has a 20-25% bump over the XS, that’s the ultimate device for me. I love the large screen size and portability of the XS, but the battery life leaves something to be desired.
A 20%+ battery...
Hello,
My iphone 7 appeared the following message yesterday: Your battery's health is significantly degraded. An Apple Authorized Service Provider can replace the battery to restore full performance and capacity.
But Maximum Capacity is showing 100%.
Does anyone know what can it be?
I took my MBP in last Wednesday for the battery repair. It arrived at the depot today. It went from diagnosing to repairing in one day, hopefully meaning that it’s quick. The genius at the Apple Store recommended that Apple replace the top case as part of the repair program as well. Is this...
The new optimised charging feature seems like a great idea, anything designed to prolong the lifetime of a non user replaceable battery in a sealed phone is a great idea.
However I do foresee an issue with this feature, and that is the user.
I foresee a lot of non tech savvy people plugging...
Just swapped my Honor 9 for an iPhone 7 (wanting to get away from Big-brother, sorry, Google).
Liking the experience and the way it just links to my Mac and iPad. However, so disappointed with battery life - my Honor 9 would typically have 40-50% left at the end of the day - admittedly, I'm not...
Hi everyone!
This happened 3 times: I opened the MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)/Mojave, and it was out of batteries. After I connected the power cord and turn it on, the only user available was the administrator. My personal user has just 'disappeared' .
So I logged in with the administrator...
I have a late 2013 Macbook Pro and starting a couple weeks ago while not doing any intensive work just browsing basic websites, my computer froze up and then shut down.
It gets really hot above the keyboard, freezes, and then shuts down.
Here are my specs:
Late 2013
2.6 GHz Intel Core i7

Hi, I've owned a 2011 15' Macbook Pro since the year it launched, it's been a great computer all of these years and I upgraded the ram from 4gb to 8gb and swapped the mechanical 5200rpm HDD to a 256gb SSD.
About 1 year and a half ago my battery almost blew up so I removed and used the computer...
This is a remote 2010 MBA running Mavericks to which I connect via Chrome Remote Desktop or SSH.
When I connected this morning I noticed the battery percentage was only 47%. The Menu Bar battery tool shows:
When I logged in an hour later the battery was down to 42%.
I know that I need to...
I noticed under the battery area in the general settings, the graph goes up to 150%. What does this mean? Does it mean power used when plugged into a wall?
Thanks!
Main question: Should I return this Amazon renewed item and just spend the extra money on a certified Apple refurbished if the battery seems suspect?
I recently bought a renewed 2017 Macbook 12" off of Amazon. I asked around on reddit to see if there was anything I should be concerned about and...
Hey everyone,
I recently started refurbing on my old 2010 MBP and have run in to some problems.
First problem that I am having is the battery was bulging and pressing the trackpad up so that it would no longer click, but I have resolved that by simply removing the battery for now, and I intend...
I have a late 2013 MBP 15". In April I replaced the battery with an OWC (Macsales.com) NewerTech NuPower 71 Watt-Hour Battery Replacement Kit. I had no problem replacing the battery myself.
In April, I was sent two batteries which did not work. A third was sent and was working until I started...
On my 2015 MacBook Pro 15 inch with 2.5 ghz I7 the battery capacity reads 7200 mAh. I have 220 battery cycles and I know stock it has about 8200 mAh. Is there a reason for this and can I improve it?
Hi.
I keep my MacbookPro permanently connected via USB-C to my LG Ultrafine 5K monitor. After work is done, I close the lid, and it goes to standby.
However I noticed, that the laptop is warm (hand warm) all the time.
- Why is that? It is on standby.
- Does this hurt the battery?
- Shall I...
For people who cares about battery consumption and privacy
I just discovered it is not enough to just disable it in general prefs. You will see an empty list of on or off.
If you are with the generic Background App refresh off
then check each one of your apps in
Settings
where they are listed...
