Anyone guess what is wrong with this battery issue?

A couple of weeks ago I noticed something unusual... it showed "not charging" in the indicator instead of a percentage... I just never seen it show up like that but it was shown that way at 93%...so I wasn't too worried. I was told to calibrated my battery. Before I calibrated my battery I let it drop down to 85% and it wouldn't recharge at all until after a while and it did start to charge, although slowly and not consistently (went from green to orange). Then I let it drain all the way and it recharged up fine and showed the steady orange. I noticed when I would use it since then it'd never show it recharging back up like it used to ("trickle")... but when I put my computer to sleep and woke it up I noticed it had recharged and whatnot. Maybe I didn't calibrate it right? I don't think I let it sleep for 5 hours. But I'm not sure if that will even fix the problem. I cleaned the magsafe adapter and the connector just in case but I don't think a dirty adapter is the problem. Something makes me think something's wrong with the logic board or battery? Am I jumping to conclusions? I didn't touch the computer after last Sunday and when I woke the computer up on Wednesday it showed "Not Charging" at 82%...I let it drop to 75% and it still says not charging with a green light. Great. I don't know what to do...I think mine is a built in battery MBP so I don't even know how to check it. I've only had this computer for 17 months. Should I trust local repairs to look at my computer? I don't really have a lot to spend... I have never been mobile with it so it's fine as a desktop but it's not ideal, especially if you were to lose it if you were working on it. I've already tried the SMC and it did nothing...unless I didn't do it right... anyone else know what I could do to try to fix the problem on my own? I'm worried about recalibrating it and it not charging back up, probably won't happen but it's in the back of my mind of constant worry.
Here's my info:

Ok here are my recommendations for your consideration:
Goto the “apple “on your top menu bar. Click 1stoption (About this Mac) a small screen will appear
andclick on “More Info...which will take to a large another smallscreen with Mac Book Pro in huge
letterslike this: MacBookPro.
Nextgo the “Systems Report” button: press.
NextUnder “Hardware” on the left you'll see “Power” click that.Volia the battery info
Nowlets do an analysis of the info: here's mine a 2 mo. Old 17” MBP:
ModelInformation:
  SerialNumber:     ****************** (not shown by me)
  Manufacturer:     DP
  DeviceName:     ******************(not shown by me)
  PackLot Code:     0
  PCBLot Code:     0
  FirmwareVersion:     406
  HardwareRevision:     1
  CellRevision:     1102
  ChargeInformation:
  ChargeRemaining (mAh):     7806
  FullyCharged:     No
  Charging:     Yes
  FullCharge Capacity (mAh):     8488
  HealthInformation:
  CycleCount:     17
  Condition:     Normal
  BatteryInstalled:     Yes
  Amperage(mA):     2131
  Voltage(mV):     12534
OK under“Charge Information” you see my MBP currently at 7806mAh (mstands Milli 
which is 10 tothe -3 power) which translates to 7.806 Amp hours in non-techiespeak. As you see on mine Full Charge Capacity is 8.488 Amp hours.
Ok under healthyou see my cycle count is 17. Your very low cycle count 31 reflects that you are not “conditioning” your battery by runningit on battery till 5 minute warning or going to sleep and then fullyrecharging it! You've had it ~18 mo. And your dooming your battery to a short life.
Condition your battery for a long life.
Please notethis is a super battery 2.131 Amps @ 12.534Volts which Apple sayswill last 7 hours. Real world experience is significantly less withLion OS installed.

    Hi, everyone:
    when I insert into table, i use the fellowing SQL:
    INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
    (XHC_CALL_ENDED, XHC_SWITCH_PORT, XHC_SCRIPT_ID, XHC_FAX_SPECIFIED)
    VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N'
    FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION
    SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT, HH_SCRIPT,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');
    I always got an error like;
    VALUES (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'), HH_SWITCHPORT,
    ERROR at line 3:
    ORA-00936: missing expression
    but I can't find anything wrong, who can tell me why?
    thank you so much in advance

    For starters, an insert select does not have a values clause.

    ...and why are you doing a UNION on the exact same two queries?
    (SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE' UNION SELECT TO_DATE(HH_END_DATE||' '||HH_END_TIME,'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') ,HH_SWITCHPORT ,HH_SCRIPT ,'N' FROM tmp_healthhit_load WHERE HH_SCRIPT !='BROCHURE');

    Hi,
    thank you for your answer, but the problem is, if I deleted "values" as you pointed out, and then execute it again, I got error like "ERROR at line 3:
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel", and I was then disconnected with server, I have to relogin SQLplus, and do everything from beganing.
    so what 's wrong caused disconnection, I can't find any triggers related. it is so wired?
    I wonder if anyone can help me about this.
    thank you very much

    Hi,
    acturlly what I do is debugging a previous developer's scipt for data loading, this script was called by Cron work, but it never can be successfully executed.
    I think he use union for eliminating duplications of rows, I just guess.
    thank you

    Scratch the VALUES keyword then make sure that the select list matches the column list in number and type.
    1 insert into marktest
    2 (fld1, fld2, fld3, fld4, fld5)
    3* select * from marktest
    UT1 > /
    16 rows created.

    try this - just paste the code and give me the error- i mean past the entire error as it is if error occurs
    INSERT INTO xhealthcall_script_data
    (xhc_call_ended, xhc_switch_port, xhc_script_id,
    xhc_fax_specified)
    SELECT TO_DATE (hh_end_date || ' ' || hh_end_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS'),
    hh_switchport, hh_script, 'N'
    FROM tmp_healthhit_load
    WHERE hh_script != 'BROCHURE'
    UNION

    Hi, Jagan:
    thank you very much for your answer.
    but when I execute it, I still can get error like:
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
    so wired, do you have any ideas?
    thank you very much

    And this one,
    Aother question about SQL?
    I thought I already told him to deal with
    ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
    problem first.
    There's nothing wrong (syntax wise) with the query. (of course when no "value" in the insert)

    What's wrong with my battery?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    In most cases, OS X tells you to replace the battery when its capacity is below 80%. This is the reason why you see a message telling you to replace the battery.
    It is up to you to get the battery replaced or not. If you want to get it replaced, you need to take the Mac to an Apple Store, and the battery replacement will costs $129 + labour. You can replace it yourself by buying the battery online. Also, if your Mac is in warranty, the battery replacement is free.
    To be fair, your battery capacity is lower than it should be after 420 cycles, more when Apple says their batteries should have 80% of their capacity after 1000 cycles. See > http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html

  • What is wrong with this code? on(release) gotoAndPlay("2")'{'

    Please could someone tell me what is wrong with this code - on(release)
    gotoAndPlay("2")'{'
    this is the error that comes up and i have tried changing it but it is not working
    **Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Layer 2, frame=1:Line 2: '{' expected

    Thanks

    If you have a frame labelled "2" then it should be:
    on (release) {
        this._parent.gotoAndPlay("2");
    or other wise just the following to go to frame 2:
    on (release) {
         this._parent.gotoAndPlay(2);
    You just had a missing curly bracket...

  • I can't figure out what's wrong with this code

    First i want this program to allow me to enter a number with the EasyReader class and depending on the number entered it will show that specific line of this peom:
    One two buckle your shoe
    Three four shut the door
    Five six pick up sticks
    Seven eight lay them straight
    Nine ten this is the end.
    The error message i got was an illegal start of expression. I can't figure out why it is giving me this error because i have if (n = 1) || (n = 2) statements. My code is:
    public class PoemSeventeen
    public static void main(String[] args)
    EasyReader console = new EasyReader();
    System.out.println("Enter a number for the poem (0 to quit): ");
    int n = console.readInt();
    if (n = 1) || (n = 2)
    System.out.println("One, two, buckle your shoe");
    else if (n = 3) || (n = 4)
    System.out.println("Three, four, shut the door");
    else if (n = 5) || (n = 6)
    System.out.println("Five, six, pick up sticks");
    else if (n = 7) || (n = 8)
    System.out.println("Seven, eight, lay them straight");
    else if (n = 9) || (n = 10)
    System.out.println("Nine, ten, this is the end");
    else if (n = 0)
    System.out.println("You may exit now");
    else
    System.out.println("Put in a number between 0 and 10");
    I messed around with a few other thing because i had some weird errors before but now i have narrowed it down to just this 1 error.

    Appreciate your help
    Raja Lakshmi

    hello,
    what you are trying to do :
    fetch the current date and return it as the result of the formula-column.
    what you are actually doing :
    fetch the current date, convert it to text, assign this text to a date-variable which causes an implicit type-conversion.
    in your case you create a date-string with the format dd-mm-yyyy. the implicit conversion then tries to convert this string back to date using the NLS settings of your session. depending on your NLS_LANG and NLS_DATE_FORMAT this might work, if your session-date-format is dd-mm-yyyy which obviously it is NOT as you get the error.
    what you should do :
    select sysdate into curr_date from dual;
    this fetches the sysdate and stores it in your date-variable. there is no type conversion needed what so ever.
    regards,

    I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

    Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
    Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
    Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
    If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.

  • What's wrong with this content type definition?

    Could someone tell me what's wrong with this content type definition? When I click "New Folder" in a custom list, it should bring two fields 1) Name 2) Custom Order. However in my case when I click new folder, I see 1) Member (which is totally
    weird) 2) custom order. Where is it getting that Member field from?
    <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
    <!-- Parent ContentType: Folder (0x0120) -->
    <ContentType ID="0x012000c0692689cafc4191b6283f72f2369cff"
    Name="Folder_OrderColumn"
    Group="Custom"
    Description="Folder with order column"
    Inherits="TRUE"
    Version="0">
    <FieldRefs>
    <FieldRef ID="{35788ED2-8569-48DC-B6DE-BA72A4F87B7A}" Name="Custom_x0020_Order" DisplayName="Custom Order" />
    </FieldRefs>
    </ContentType>
    </Elements>

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you had an issue about the custom content type with custom column.
    I don’t think there is any issue in the content type definition, and it also worked well in my environment.
    Did you have the Member field in the project?
    I recommend you create a simple project only with one custom Order column and one custom Folder_OrderColumn, then you can add more fields one by one.
    By doing this, it will be easier to find out the root cause of this error.
    Thanks,
    Jason

  • What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!

    What's wrong with this Forum? Why does Adobe take so long to reply to posts?!
    This is actually "specific" to this Photoshop Forum.
    I typically get responses back from other Adobe forum promptly.
    Chime in.

    The Adobe engineering folks DO duck in here from time to time - and that's a BLESSING!  Please name any other big company where you get to interact with the engineers AT ALL.  I can't.  But I suspect the engineers actually have a lot oof real work to do, and their time here is necessarily limited.
    Your comments are more along the line of "I pay a huge amount, for that I expect better support".  These are very valid comments.  But reality is different from what we may expect, and this forum is not the place to expect Adobe support participation AT ALL.  In fact, the technical support people at Adobe often direct users to come here (something I've always found amusing).
    At the higher level, Adobe may simply not be spending enough on support for literally millions of users.  Is is greed or smart business to try to minimize support cost?  That's up for individuals to decide.
    I suggest you write a snail-mail letter to the Adobe president if you're not getting the support you need.

  • What's wrong with this simple code?

    What's wrong with this simple code? Complier points out that
    1. a '{' is expected at line6;
    2. Statement expected at the line which PI is declared;
    3. Type expected at "System.out.println("Demostrating PI");"
    However, I can't figure out them. Please help. Thanks.
    Here is the code:
    import java.util.*;
    public class DebugTwo3
    // This class demonstrates some math methods
    public static void main(String args[])
              public static final double PI = 3.14159;
              double radius = 2.00;
              double area;
              double roundArea;
              System.out.println("Demonstrating PI");
              area = PI * radius * radius;
              System.out.println("area is " + area);
              roundArea = Math.round(area);
              System.out.println("Rounded area is " + roundArea);

    Change your code to this:
    import java.util.*;
    public class DebugTwo3
         public static final double PI = 3.14159;
         public static void main(String args[])
              double radius = 2.00;
              double area;
              double roundArea;
              System.out.println("Demonstrating PI");
              area = PI * radius * radius;
              System.out.println("area is " + area);
              roundArea = Math.round(area);
              System.out.println("Rounded area is " + roundArea);
    Klint

  • What's wrong with this?HELP

    What's wrong with this piece of code:
    clickhereButton.addActionListener(this);
         ^
    That's my button's name.
    Everytime I try to complie the .java file with this code in it it says:
    Identifier expected: clickhereButton.addActionListener(this);
    ^
    Please help.

    You must have that code in a method or an initilizer block... try moving it to eg. the constructor.

  • What`s wrong with this message "purchase of this item is not currently available"

    what`s wrong with this message “purchase of this item is not currently available”,I test my app with sandbox,it always told me this message from this morning,but it was all right last night.

    This appears to have been resolved over the weekend.  A sandbox status page would be useful.  The sandbox does have frequent problems, resulting in quite a lot of lost development time.
