Battery always on 100%

Since yesterday I notice that the iPad battery is always on 100%
I restored it like a new iPad and still show at 100% after usage.
Any solutions?

Have you restarted your iPhone? If that didn't work, you can try a hard reset (don't worry it doesn't delete any of your data). Hold down the sleep and home button (disregarding the power off slider) until your screen shuts off and turns back on. Now let go of the buttons and let your iPhone turn on. This should fix the problem.

Magic Mouse battery always shows 100%

Since upgrading to Mac 10.6.7, The preference window for the magic mouse always shows 100%.
After installing MagicPrefs free drivers, (because Apples' sensitivity settings suck), MagicPrefs show
a more accurate level of 84%. What gives here Apple? Are you letting the competition beat you at
your own game? I'm getting disgusted with Apple's lack of support, fixes and updates to reported problems.

From my troubleshooting, it seems it's specific to the individual mouse.
I have two Magic Mice on my desk, one for a MB Pro and one for an iMac. The "trouble" Magic Mouse, which always shows "100%" AND frequently disconnects, did so in 10.6 and 10.7. on my MB Pro.
I thought maybe the Bluetooth module on my MB Pro was bunk--so I swapped mice and took the "stable" Magic Mouse on the iMac and paired it with my MB Pro--no problems. The "trouble" Magic Mouse, formerly on the MB Pro, now on the iMac--exhibits the exact same problems--it seems to be the specific mouse, not the OS or Bluetooth modules on either host computer. Hope this helps. I guess I'll be making a trip to the Apple Store to see if they can fix/replace my "trouble" Magic Mouse...

Apps are in "waiting" state and battery always reads 100%

After ios5 upgrade, many apps are constantly in "waiting" state and cannot be accessed.
Also, battery indicator us stuck at 100%.

Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Anyone having same problem? I phone 4 after updating to Vers.5.1.1. battery cannot be 100% full charge, always stop at 99% and battery drains off fast too :(

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

Laptop battery always on full, 100% when connected to AC

Hi,
I usually use my laptop on AC with battery removed. Last week I used it from battery, then connected the laptop to AC. If I remember correctly battery started to discharge to 90 something percent after a while, but now it is always on full.
acpi -b
Battery 0: Full, 100%
I have the following packages installed:
local/laptop-mode-tools 1.61-2
local/acpi 1.6-1
local/acpid 2.0.16-3
local/linux 3.5.3-1
My question: is it fine to have the battery always on full? Or was it better when it was charging/discharging automatically?
Thanks

Let me clarify myself. When the battery is in place and the laptop is running from AC, sooner or later you will see that the battery is fully charged. When this fully charged status has been accomplished, charging stops and battery starts discharging (let's say from 100% to 95%) then charging starts again. I think that was the way it worked some weeks ago. My experience in this very moment is that battery is reported to be fully charged. Always. No drop from 100%.
I think the charger electronic prevent the battery from overcharge, but I don't know why is the change in the behavior described above. Was it a bug and now it's fixed or now we have a bug.
Anyway, people contradict each other how to prolong the health of a battery, but I found that usually they say if one usually uses a laptop from AC the best thing is to remove the battery when charged to 50-60% and store in a dry place, and from time to time it's advised to charge/discharge it.
Uh... what make is your laptop, for example I'm using a Compaq laptop so my laptop has a big Compaq at the base of the screen and nice big Q on the back. I wouldn't be surprised if your laptop is a Dell. Google for product reviews for your laptop: So, since my laptop is a Compaq and it's a CQ60-420US
I'd type
CQ60-420us battery charge/discharge behavior
or something like that into the address bar for chromium, and then press enter.
EDIT: The best way to use/store a battery, and you can quote me on this 'cause I took a Electrical engineering class last semester and know what I'm talking about, is to just charge it all the way up and then use it till it's almost out of battery power. If you charge it when it's at half capacity it will eventually do bad stuff to the battery, or something like that. Anyway, it's just healthier for the battery to have the chance to fully discharge per every full recharge. You don't have to let it go all the way to 0%, 'cause your laptop will probably cut off if you do that, so let it get as close to zero as you feel comfortable with.
A good program for keeping an eye on power stuff is wmacpi. It's what I use, since conky isn't reliable on my hardware when it comes to the battery. Install it thusly:
packer -S wmacpi
and run it thusly:
$ wmacpi
If you use openbox, like I do, you can add the following line to your ~/.config/openbox/autostart file.
wmacpi &
Here's an image of wmacpi showing a laptop being run off AC power.

My iPad 3 always shows 100% battery

My iPad 3 always shows 100% battery and suddenly it gets off post complete discharge.

First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Lenovo K 900 --Battery charge indicator always shows 100 %

A strange issue after firmware upgrade in lenovo K 900 , When I charged to 100 % , the phone always shows 100 % charge . It is not getting updated and after using for 6-7 hrs the phone gets switched off without any notice . Now I can charge again and this time the battery charge indicator shows correctly . but again the same issue is seen if the phone is charged to 100 % .

Let it die all the way down, to recalibrate the battery, and then fully recharge. See if that helps.

Why does my trackpad always show 100% in system preferences?

I read where someone is having the exact problem but with the keyboard instead. A widget was suggested as a work around but is it a problem with Lion or is there something else I could do to fix it. Thanks

You know what forget it. There ain't much reality to reproduce.
It always reads 100% period. It never changes.
I can only hope Apple read these things and look into it.
Thanks anyway.
Do try uk-max's suggestion. Othewise, keep an eye on the battery level that does work so you don't wind up with a dead battery and can't re-pair it (because the battery is dead.....).
FWIW, Apple is aware of the issue; I sent in a bug report - I've heard of several being stuck at 57%, some at 100%. On mine, it was always the wrong percentage showing in the Bluetooth menu bar.
For anyone else: we are not discussing laptop batteries, but the battery level of the magic trackpad (or mouse, for that matter) - both are bluetooth, both have batteries, and there has been a problem showing the correct battery level for both.

My mac wireless keyboard always shows 100-percent charge when its not

How do I allow my iMac to correctly show the battery level of my Mac wireless keyboard?
It always shows 100-percent, which is wrong most of the time.
It reads and shows my Mac wireless mouse battery level correctly.

It's a bug.

IPod wont sync, battery always says it's charged, etc...

I got my iPod classic around December 2005, everything was fine until a few days ago, Christmas day to be exact. I had transferred my music to an external hard drive so as not to take up so much space on my laptop. I plugged in my hard drive, after not using it for a month or so, opened iTunes and 3/4 of my songs had that little next to them and the files could not be found. I plugged my iPod into the computer and it just came up with the red circle with the line through it and said "Do not disconnect" it won't sync anything and will only go back to a normal screen when I eject it. It does this on my desktop computer as well. Aslp the battery always says it's charged, I never know when I need to charge it until it dies. I plug it in to charge it and the battery icon always has the lightning bolt, but the battery gauge always says it's full. I had 500 songs and, I only about 100 with out the little next to it. Am I SOL or can this be fixed?

I bought a new ipod

but it depends on its quality

I-Pad battery still showing 100%

I charged my I-Pad battery for the first time 2 weeks ago. I used the A/C charger and once I saw that it was fully charged I disconnected the A/C source.
Now, I've been using my I-Pad for nearly 2 weeks now and it's still showing a battery charge of 100%.
I did disable the WIFI and Bluetooth options and turned down the brightness settings.
I've only been using it to synch songs from my I-Tunes and I do that through the USB port on my desktop. However, the I-Pad always says "Not Charging".
Does this seem right that my I-Pad is still showing a battery charge of 100% after about 2 weeks use?
Thanks a bunch.

The USB port on your computer may not be supplying enough power to charge. Read the yellow highlighted battery charging tips at the top of the forum.
Try using the device for a while and see if the battery drops.

Battery shows allways 100%

Hi,
After upgrading to Leopard i am having some difficulties with the power management of my MacBook. The Battery Life as displayed in the menu bar always shows 100% until the battery is drained and the MacBook shuts down. When i plug in the AC connector the Battery won't load until i reset the PMU of my MacBook. But after loading the Battery it always says "100%" and "10:00 remaining". What can i do?
Thanks,
sven

IPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?

iPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?
Ever since the update, I am having issues with the battery. Phone shuts down while it still shows 100 percent battery life. Normally not a big deal because I don't use it all the time but lately an issue when I'm working in Manhattan and it shuts down while in the middle of conversation or emailing.
I can't go around charging it every hour wondering what my battery life really is.
Please help!

My phone now is not working at all. It only works for a few minutes while it is plugged into the wall and then it shuts down and pops right back up showing it has 75% battery. It has been doing this since yesteday afternoon.
I tried the reset and it is still acting up. Dreading having to take this to the Apple store since it is past the initial 90 days and I will probably get charged for it. :( Dont want to shell out money for a new one since I just got this one in October.
Thanks for your help.
