Tungsten T3 turns off when removed from cradle

When in the cradle the battery shows as 100% charged. As soon as you pull the T3 from the cradle it turns off and can not be turned on. tried hard reset. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.
Post relates to: Tungsten T3

Sounds like your battery has failed.
You could try an "in-cradle reset" to recalibrate any possible life left in it, but with the age of the device I'm guessing it's just kaput!
Press the Reset button while it's charging in the cradle then leave it alone for a few hours.
If still no joy, batteries and repair can be found at usedpdaparts.com or directfix.com. If you're a DIY type of person, there are videos on directfix.com that show you how to do the battery replacement yourself.

Airport Card turned off when resuming from sleep - New since 10.6.6

I use safe sleep regularly, as I use my laptop at both work and home. Ever since the update to 10.6.6 though, I have had to manually turn my Airport connection back on after resuming from sleep.
Previously, although it was unreliable about connecting to a preferred network (an unrelated, but equally frustrating issue*) at least it would remain on. Now I've had to add the icon to my Menu bar just so I don't have to dig into System Preferences every single time I reawaken my laptop.
Does anyone know why this is happening, and if there is anything I can do to prevent it? I apologize if this has been asked before, but when I searched I was unable to find anything.
*This issue is unrelated and not the focus of my post, but if you happen to know about it I would absolutely appreciate your input.
When resuming from sleep, despite being between 5-20 feet from my preferred router I will often receive a dialog asking me to select from a list of SSIDs and enter a password even though that information is already saved. Then, once I complete this information Airport doesn't actually connect and the only way to resolve the issue is to turn Airport off and then back on. After this, it will automatically connect with no problems and remain connected until I put the computer into Sleep mode again.

Maybe check in your keychain and verify the password saved is correct for your wireless router?
Do you broadcast the network name?
Could you describe "unreliable about connecting to a preferred network"?
Is "use secure virtual memory" checked in the Security preference pane? If so try unchecking that maybe? If it's a hibernation issue sometimes that could cause weirdness.

IPhone 3G Screen turns off when lowering from ear during call

I have my 3rd iPhone; bought it yesterday (last one stolen in Denver Airport). The screen works normally when using the functions other than the phone. When making a call everything is normal but when I put the phone to my ear, I have noticed that the screen does not turn off, however, when lowering the phone to look at the screen during the call, it goes completely blank despite the call still being connected. I tried pushing all the buttons to no avail. I did a reset and also a software restore without success. I discovered that when I lowered the phone during a call and the screen goes blank, I put my warm thumb over the little horizontal sensor above the screen and it would come back on. If I released my thumb it would turn off (the exact opposite of what should happen). I called apple, they said to return the phone because there probably is a hardware issue. I bought it at an ATT store in Santa Barbara, CA; I am told there is a restocking fee to replace the phone!! Amazing, buy a new product, its defective, return it for a new one, and they extract $20 additional dollars from you. Anyone else with a similar problem.

If it is not in a case and it is defective the only way that the AT&T store will swap out the phone for a new one without the restocking fee is if it's under 14 days. After the 14 days you have to bring it to an Apple store for repair or a replacement. I recommend purchasing the iCare warranty through apple, because it will extend the warranty to 2 years on the phone, and when your phone breaks the apple store will replace it on the spot if they can't repair it in the store instead of sending it out for repair and you waiting for it.

MacBook Pro turns off when unplugged from outlet

I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo 2.26GHz
2 days ago when I unplugged it from the wall it shut off. It has been doing this since even though the battery is fully charged.
Once it is off I am able to turn it back on not plugged in and use it for the full length of the battery without problem.
Anyone would know what would cause this? and how to fix it?
Thx

I would try the SMC reset.

Display turns off when booting from CD

I have a 15-inch Powerbook. I need to reload the OS because my son changed the password and I need to reset it. But when I press "c" at the startup, the screen goes black. It does the same thing when I try to load open firmware at startup. Any ideas of how to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you soooo much! Pressing the command button launched the startup manager, where I was able to choose to start from CD manually. I didn't know about startup manager. Thanks again.

8330 display not turning off when holstered.

Hi,
Last week for some unknown reason, my 8330 no longer shuts the display off when holstered. Additionally, the display no longer turns on when removed from the holster - I have to push the on/off key to turn the display on. The holster is a genuine BlackBerry holster and the magnet is still very strong and intact. Any suggestions as to why this has happened would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried a Battery Pull:
1. Remove the battery while phone is turned on
2. Wait a few seconds before inserting it again
3. Allow the long boot up process to finish (takes a few minutes usually)
This clears most software issues that occur on blackberries from time to time. You could also use Quickpull, a free app that simulates a battery pull without physically removing the battery: http://store.berryreview.com/product.asp?id=27660&n=QuickPull-Free
A battery pull reclaims memory lost during application usage and clears minor software errors that creep in over time. The blackberry runs an OS just like your PC runs windows and the battery pull is the equivalent of a reboot/restart on your computer.
What device OS are you running? Options>About, 3rd line down says v4.x.x.xxx?

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

Dan,
It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
Hope that helps

HT3986 I was about to remove my Win7 with BootCamp but suddenly I ran out of power & my MacBookPro turned off , when I began again I saw that the space that I had for my Win7 has been blocked & I have no access to that, what shall I do now? :-l

I hope you are able to solve your problem. The iPhone is definitely designed to be able to run the power all the way down. In fact, the instructions to maintain your battery suggest doing that once a month. I do it now and then, not usually once a month and I am always able to get my phone back to where it would be usable in about 10 minutes of charge. I always keep it in the charger until it is fully charged, however.
I just didn't want you to think you made some big mistake to let it run out of charge. There must be something going on with your phone or the battery.

Pavilion dv6- turns off when power cord removed

There's a certain way I can unplug it where it doesn't shut off- but 99% of the time when the adapter is pulled out it shuts off. Has a new battery that shows 100% charged, and lasts a good hour if I can get it to stay on when unplugged. ONce it shuts off, it only comes back when the adapter is plugged in. Do I replace the adapter, battery (again), or something else?

Hi @SavannahsDad
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your notebook turns off when the cord is unplugged. I am happy to assist. If the battery is showing as fully charged whenever you do this it almost sounds as if there is a bad connection between the battery and the notebook.
Here are some things you can look at for now.Computer Does not Start (Windows 7, Vista, XP)
AC Adapter Battery Charging Indicator LED Does Not Display Immediately When Plugged In
Battery Charging Is Not Indicated in Vista or Charging LED Does Not Turn On
Improving Battery Performance (Windows 8, 7, Vista)
Let me know if any of that is useful to you, or if you see any other symptoms.

Why does computer turn off when battery 40%?

Why does computer turn off when battery around 40%? I have tried replacing the battery.

Replacing as in "removed, re-installed", or "bought a new one"?
This is my display from "Apple menu > About This Mac > More Info > Power"
"Normal" means no issues.
I will stop now in case you have actually put in a *new* battery ...

brand new/never been used iPod nano 2nd gen keeps on charging and won't turn on when removed connection to pc/charger. how can i fix this? pls i need help
i did that middle button and top button for 6-10 seconds, hold play button, that hold button and got it right back and still it won't on but it is detected on my pc and itunes. i've already even put on some songs but it keeps on charging and charging for how many hours and if i remove it, it shuts off and won't turn on again.

brand new/never been used iPod nano
Call Apple Care. You are still under warranty. You also have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your iPod with no questions asked.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired.

Horizontal spry menu style appears turned off when on the internet though can view it in live mode!?

The style of the horizontal spry menu seems as to have been turned off when on the web though is visible and functioning on CS4 Dreamweaver design and live views. I have styled the spry menu and can view it in the properties section though the style setting is there on the internet it looks as if the styles have turned off and appears unformatted vertically when it should be a cascading horizontal menu bar. Not sure where the error is, I have looked at the coding and as I'm not the most experienced with spry.....
this is the coding above the head.
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript">
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

</script>
I have noticed that SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css doesn't appear in the spry assets folder, does this matter? (not sure how to insert into the assets menu). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks for testing it. I'm not sure how to proceed though as the css file is in my local_sites/spry assets folder for the website. I've tried to point it to other (copies of SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css) and spry assets folder externally from the site and again internally in the root folder and seems to make little or no difference.
Your suggestion of what it should read,(sorry to sound so naive at all this) though would you mind giving a step-by-step guide on how to go about it? as I'm obviously missing something in the setup process.
thanks again for your help.

Macbook works fine when plugged in, turns off when unplugged.

Hello all,
As stated my 2008 Unibody 13 inch, serial number W8******1AX turns on and works fine when it is connected to power.
When it is unplugged it instantly turns off and turns its fans on full until it depletes the battery (so it is obviously getting power.. just not where I want it)
Since the problem began I have tried two new batteries, neither of which had any different symptoms.
Before this, the computer had an intermittent life, it would turn off when it saw fit, which got progressively worse.
I have followed the guides to resetting the SMC but have had no luck
I have been running it without the battery (to save it charging and discharging for no reason) and sometimes when plugged in without a battery
the magsafe green indicator light goes from dim to bright.
With the battery installed it stays bright orange until it is charged and then switches to bright green.
(I have tried it with another charger, same symptoms)

There may be a hardware cause behind the symptoms you cite, so a diagnostic
is recommended to see which parts are weak or failed in the computer. A visit to
an Apple Store with Genius bar may be helpful, as they can perform testing there.
A call ahead or use their web page, to schedule an appointment, is advised.
In the US and Canada, the Genius bar at a retail Apple Store can perform
a diagnostic service, for no fee, even on Apple products without AppleCare.
See links:
Apple - Concierge
Genius Bar - Apple Retail Store:
http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/
List of Apple Stores, cities, countries:
http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/
Also authorized Apple service providers who can test, repair and guarantee their
work should be able to handle an out-of-warranty older Mac, within age limits...
Ones too old for the Apple Store could be serviced at a Specialist, instead.

•Did you try resetting the System Management Controller?
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
•A reset of NVRAM may help with some issues:

•Calibrating is part of maintenance, esp with older portables:
Apple Portables: Calibrating your computer's battery for best performance
•The power adapter can be problematic and cause issues, so there's this:
Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters
Also another item, other than keeping the magnetic connections clean of
debris, grime, and corrosion, is to check the MagSafe Board or have it
checked as part of a greater diagnostic. This board is behind the port
that supplies the computer and the battery with power from the adapter.
When it partially fails or if/when one of the connecting wires or plug fails
you can find odd issues or partial use. The battery may charge but it
may not be able to power the computer, and other odd effects.
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/MacBook
In older portable Macs, this was generally called a 'DC-in board' and as
such, you could read about it in an iFixit repair guide for the MacBook
model you have. These vary so the matching article is recommended to
see if that is something you may want to try. But I would have diagnostic
testing done and avoid additional damages from attempted DIY efforts.
There have been a few reports of other failure on the logic board that
contributes to a partial failure of the charging system, so about all this
may do is troubleshoot around the failure without finding an exact cause.
However it goes...
Good luck & happy computing!

I'm sure your'e going to tell me I just need a new phone but maybe there is hope for my iphone 4. It will not charge past 66% (it's not the charger), it turns off when unplugged, and it will not even let me turn my wi fi to the on possition. Help!

Hi there 8472kck!
I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. That information can be found right here:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
