Mavericks drains my battery!

Macbook Pro 2012. I've read the comments and many others have the same issue. This has been going on now for 2 days, my battery used to have 9 hrs and is now down to 5 after doing a full charge. Not good. Is this another of Apple's scams? Please help!!

My battery drains faster on 6.1.3

I'm using and iPod touch 5 and I unjailbreak it and update at the same time. But when I update I come to realize that my battery drain faster on 6.1.3 .. When I charge my ipod full, I will usually play games like fifa or blitz

Brigade.. After I play those game for about 1/2 - 1 hour, my battery drained a lot.. Can anyone help?

 

I also wanna ask if my ipod is still under warranty after jailbreak.. But usually after jailbreak the warranty will be block or something right?

Sorry for my english

After SMC 1.8 Update, mid-2011 Air won't sleep, battery drains constantly

TL;DR: Installed SMC 1.8, computer won't sleep. Do I have to do a full system wipe / restore?

 

I've seen a few other threads noting issues after the SMC 1.8 update (like https://discussions.apple.com/message/21130929 ) but nothing matches my exact symptoms so I'll post a new one.

 

For the past week, it seems that my mid-2011 13" 128GB MBA won't go to sleep, either by closing the lid or Apple->Sleep from the menu. The bottom of the case is perpetually warm and the battery drains from full to dead in ~6 hours. I had installed a couple of pieces of software around the time that I did the SMC 1.8 update so I'm not sure exactly what the culprit is but I'll go on a limb and say the SMC update is the likeliest suspect.

 

I have tried the following steps to no avail:

  • shutting off Wifi and Bluetooth (and disabling "Wake on" features)
  • rebooting
  • powering down and resetting the SMC
  • cursing in several languages

 

When I run "pmset -g assertions" this is the summary output:

2/14/13 2:28:35 PM EST  

Assertion status system-wide:

   PreventUserIdleDisplaySleep    0

   PreventSystemSleep             0

   PreventUserIdleSystemSleep     0

   ExternalMedia                  0

   UserIsActive                   0

   ApplePushServiceTask           0

   BackgroundTask                 0

 

So as best I can understand the issue, there's no user-level software keeping my system running and thus I'm blaming SMC. I'm at a loss for next steps... I've never tried the genuis bar but I'm skeptical they can add much, so am I down to doing a system restore or is there something else to pursue first?

my ipod 4th gen battery drains when deleting apps.

Hello. I have been having issues with my 4th generation apple ipod touch. I charge my battery to full, and listen to music in the backgroud and play unbox me, and so those are the only two apps running. I keep my multitasking to a minimum. When playing the game, the battery drains quickly. When I had a full charge showing on the battery, I held down the apps to delete them. They started to "dance" and I selected four apps, and deleted them. After that my battery showed about 25%. What is going on? Can anyone help?! Thank you!

Ipod Touch 4th Gen battery drains extremely fast, but in sleep mode returns to normal.

I recently bought my ipod from a friend and noticed that whenever I have the screen on the battery drains before my eyes. However if I put it in sleep mode or if I am listening to music the battery will last as long as my brothers ipod. Normally this would not be a problem but after about 10 minutes of playing hill climb racing, the 20% battery left warning comes up and another 10 minutes and the ipod shuts off. The weird thing is is that if I turn it back on and leave it in sleep, it will go back up to 95%ish. I have tried resetting it to factory, and hard resetting it, neither worked. The 6.1 update did not seem to do much either. I am not sure if I have warranty on it and do not know how to check. Any help would be great, thanks!
