Battery Losing Power Qosmio X305-Q705

I have a Toshiba Qosmio X305-Q705 and the problem is I am charging my laptop and I'm noticing that when I unplugged the charger when its 100% in 5min it dies to 0% very fast and I don't know why therefore I have to keep my battery charger on the whole time and I don't know if it is charging and losing power so quickly and I need help!

Your unit is 4-5 years old. Batteries don't last forever. See these articles:

These are your compatible Toshiba battery part numbers:

Good luck.

Battery Losing Power After One Day in Europe

So I'm on a study abroad trip to Prague. Before leaving, my laptop had it's original battery life of a little over 3 hours with the screen mostly dimmed. Ever since I've had it plugged in, my computer fan has been really loud despite being asleep for at least 8 hours two days in a row and not running any programs other than firefox and the skype buddy list (not even a call) and when I unplugged my laptop the battery life had dropped to 2 hours and 17 minutes with the screen mostly dimmed. I'm curious, has this happened to anyone else? Does this mean that the European electrical current has ruined my battery and I have to buy a new one when I get back to the states?
Thanks!

I've just been going through this here in the States. My machine was running hot and the fan seemed to be on all the time and my battery was draining excessively. So when I called yesterday I was told:
1. take the battery out
2. wait 30 seconds
3. hold down the power button for about ten seconds with the battery out (the machine will not power on, but this will reset your hardware)
4. put the battery back in
5. re-power the machine
Your laptop should run quieter and the battery should last longer. Mine seems to be doing so.
Cheers.

Battery loses power

Hi has any had problems with the battery losing power just after it has been fully charged. I try to search through songs and it tells me I need to re-charge it.

I've had my PB for a little over a year now, and I almost always let it sleep overnight. Up until recently, it would lose about 5% power overnight and I would leave it plugged in all day when I was at work. In the last couple weeks though, it has started losing more like 10-15% power overnight! I haven't made any major updates or anything.
I just read a couple things: number one, your PB should not be plugged in ALL the time. Number two, you should re-calibrate the battery "every few months" according to Apple. I have only calibrated my battery the initial time and one other time, about 4 months ago. So I think it's time to re-calibrate. I'll let y'all know if it helps!

Battery loses power as I watch

Has anyone else had the problem of the battery losing power quickly? I can watch the charge go out. This started after I downloaded the Bing Music app. I deleted the Bing Music app and still the battery is losing charge quickly. I cannot see any way to open the itouch to even have another battery put in. Thank you!

How old are your ipod touches? After a certain period of time your battery loses its ability to hold a charge. If it is pretty old you might want to consider enrolling in the battery replacement program through Apple or replacing it via a third-party site.

My ipod mini won't turn on at all after battery lost power....

I've had it for about three years, but i haven't been using it very often in the past year.I've been charging it every so often in the past few months, and it's been in pretty good working condition. However, I was unable to charge it two days ago, resulting in the warning sign of the battery losing power after I turned it on yesterday. In the night, I plugged it into my adapter, but no response at all showed up; not even a sign to say it was charging/still low on power. I tried the reset option, plugging it out and back in, but the screen was still blank. This morning, still nothing, and I don't have access to my own pc until later on (to try to connect it there)...suggestions, anyone? I'm at a loss here, besides the possibility that it might be time to replace the battery...

I still didn't find the "Answer" and "Solution" that are listed for this question, but I did go through most of the "5Rs" - and now it's working!!!! (I think!) - anyway - it woke up and it's charging. I did have to try Reset and Retry (repeatedly), then Restart my computer - and update a bunch of stuff I thought I'd already updated, and also update iTunes. I weas set to go to Reinstall (even though so far the iPod appeared to be invisible to my computer). While I was checking the iTunes Help link on how to select my (invisible) iPod - all of a sudden it woke up!!!!
So, Angel - thank you for inspiring me to keep trying - and maybe when you get to your computer, it will work out? I sure hope so!

8330 keeps losing power and rebooting

my curve 8330 keeps losing power and rebooting, does anyone know how to fix this, tried cleaning battery terminals but did not work.

I also have a 8330 and it does the same thing. It randomly resets (like a master reset as it takes a long time to reboot) throughout the day. I am a Canadian user and talked to Bell who told me I had to send the phone in. I went to one of their stores and sent the phone away for 2 weeks. I received it yesterday as it was "repaired". I had it less then 24hrs and again it reset about 12 times during that time. I am also not able to activate Enterprise since the repair. My company exhausted it's options to help me set it up but they determined the is a hardware issue. So The problem is worse now. I have tried with and without media card and it doesn't change anything. I have waste days with Bell trying to resolve this issue as technical support on the phone confirms that it is a hardware problem. I have now had to take the phone back to Bell for repair again. I am shocked with Bells attitude concerning this problem as I have talked to numerous customer service managers that tell me that I have a contract with them to provide the "service". They don't seem to care that the hardware doesn't allow me access to their service. I am also amazed that they don't care that a customer has to waste time on tech support phone calls and traveling to their stores to ship the phone back to Blackberry. As well as my company that wasted time setting up my "loaner" phone then my regular phone after repair and then again a "loaner" phone when nothing was fixed. When does Blackberry get involved and make the customer happy? I am surprised that the cell phone providers can not issue a new phone when there is a hardware problem under warranty. I was told by Bell that Blackberry typically needs to see the phone 5-7 times before they will issue a new one.... This translates to the customer doing 10-14 trips to the store and a large amount of time setting the phone back up each time...
Unless something happens fast, my company is buying out my contract with Bell and I will be switching to a competitive smartphone. This is unfortunate as I like Blackberry but can not stand the support. (since I can only talk to Bell as Blackberry won't talk to me directly and only directs me to my cell provider)
Very Frustrating. But a hardware problem for sure.

Losing power/signal and no internet connectivity for WRT54G2-RM

Just installed router and using Motorola SB5101 cable modem and Comcast. Followed instructions and the router has lost losing power and needing restarts a few times. Have it installed by ethernet cable to my desktop, and using laptop (XP Pro Thinkpad P42). Cannot get internet connectivity and also loses wireless signal connection. I know there are a number of similar posted issues, and I am new to this forum. Any ideas?

Download and upgrade your router's firmware, reset and then re-configure it...
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

Wifi losing power and disconnecting

Hi,
My mid-2014 MacBook Pro keeps disconnecting from wifi intermittently, whether in use or in stand by. I reset the wifi and it reconnects after some time searching. The errors in the wifi.log each time this happens are below. I suspect there's a problem with the wifi adapter circuit so it's actually losing power, but I was wondering if anyone else had this issue and found a solution that didn't require a replacing the hardware?

Wifi problems seem to crop up a lot on here and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a 'one fix' solution.
However, sometimes any one of the following can help although, unfortunately, not always. In no particular order:
Check wifi security - if it's WEP change it to WPA or WPA2 (preferably, as it's more secure)
Change the wifi channel on the router
Create a new Network Location: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5289
Reboot the router
Also take a look at this link and the links within the article for other ideas. They mainly reference Lion, but still seem to be relevant to Mountain Lion:

Try booting in Safe Mode by holding your Shift key down when booting. Also, try holding the eject key down when booting to eject the DVD. If you plug a mouse in and hold the clicker down when booting, that should eject the DVD.

IMac randomly losing power

My 2006 Intel CoreDuo iMac has started randomly losing power. Without warning it will just power off as if someone has switched the wall socket off.
I've managed to power it back up again about 4 times after which it just does it again.
Once power is lost the only way I can get it to work again is to keep taking the memory out, putting it back in, try to switch it on, take it out again, put it back in, try to switch it on again, etc. until randomly it works again!
I've tried resetting PRAM by unpluging everything leaving it 15 seconds and then nothing... I've also managed to do a CTRLCOMMAND+PR when it was working.
Now it's gone again
Anyone any idea what might be the problem here?
I have no AppleCare so the iMac is out of warranty and the internal DVD drive no longer burns properly either. Should I give up on this Mac and put the money towards a new iMac (with AppleCare this time!) or is it going to be worth trying to get it fixed. My thoughts are that the local Apple Service Centre might take ages to determine the problem and try various things and then might not even be able to fix it.
Could it be the logic board? Power supply?
How much is a new logic board and DVD burner?
Thanks,
Neil

There are a number of threads on the iMAC loosing power. Check these:

My iMAC was doing the same; it finally died and wouldn't power at all. The tech at the apple store stated they have seen a few bad power supply cables that are the cause of the issue.

The last time I recharged the battery from power outlet it took 18 hours. IPad is only one month old. Is this normal?

How long should it take to recharge iPad 2 battery from power outlet?

Presuming you're using the iPad power brick and not an ipod's or other 5W one, 8 hours give or take (i do it overnight so I honestly can't give an exact answwer. ANd it also depends on how low it was when you started.
Do you get a 'not charging' up by the battery meter?

Losing power to USB keyboard after upgrading to Maverick

Hi. Since upgrading to Mavericks 36 hours ago I've been losing power in my USB keyboard fairly frequently. Re-plugging the USB into the port works, but not for long. Anyone else getting this, and any fixes? Thanks all.

Same here
The situation I have :
During i type something, typeing suddenly freezes ( looked, like system became unresponsive) and after some time (1-3 secs) all that i previously typed appeared.
So it looked like keyboard was keeping all i typed in the buffer, and flushed entire buffer to the system.
During this stuck i tried to type something using MBP built-in keyboard -and all was very ok there, so problem is really in the USB keyb.
I tried to change batteries in it, but it didnt help , unfortunately

Windows 10 Upgrade Salellite - Resolving battery and power issues

My upgrade seemed to go smoothly until I tried to unplug my laptop and use it with the battery. It shut down even though it shows that I have 100% charge. It was working fine before the upgrade. When I put my model into the site it says that it is not compatible for the upgrade but otherwise everything seems fine so far except that I cant use my battery. Someone I know suggested that I might need to download a driver but I have no idea which one or if that is the problem. I would appreciate some help with this. I have Satellite C875-S7303. Model # PSCBAU-009005. If anyone knows what I can do that would be so great. Thank you!
