can this be happening because my battery capacity remaining is 91 percent as shown by the icopybot for itunes??

No:

that 91% is the max capacity of the battery compared to the original (when new) design capacity.

The percetage in the menubar is the perntage charge os the actual total capacity.

The two have "nothing" to do with each other.

BTW: to avoid communication issues, do not connect the charger whenat 95% or ohigher, wait to the battery is below 90% (to be sure) then let it charge as long as you want.

method to reset the elecronics:

"force restart": press and hold both the Home button and the Power button, keep holding, let both go when you see the white apple logo.
