Calculating... Charged... Calculating... Charged... Calculating... (etc)

It seems to confuse my computer when my battery is at 100%. The battery indicator in the status bar will flip back and forth between "Calculating" and "Charged" every few seconds, and even the light on the power adapter will switch from yellow to green and back again, over and over. What's up with this? Also, when untethered, my computer seems to shut down for lack of battery way sooner than it ought to... and frequently not just go to sleep, but actually shut off.

I've had this problem as well and ended up getting a new battery to fix the issue. Unfortunately, even with my new battery being only two months old, it's acting up again (this is my third battery in a year).
The apple tech at the Genius Bar thinks there may be an issue with my computer and I'll have to take it in to get something replaced. I guess once the holidays are over, I'll do just that... which is too bad. I kind of need my computer... its why I bought it. Taking it in all the time for repairs/maintenance has been a real pain.

  • Hello.  I recently pieced together a late 2008 MacBook Pro 15".  Everything works fine except the battery constantly goes between "not charging" and "calculating" or, rarely "charging". It does charge after a long while and will report that it is charged.

    I have reset the NVRAM and the SMC a couple of time but that didn't work so I ran an Apple Hardware Test and while testing the logic board it gives the following error:
    4SNS/1/40000000 LB1T
    I've done some research and found this is a temperature sensor related to the battery, but cannot find where the sensor is located in the computer.  Would you know how I can find the sensor to test it?  Could my battery problem be related to something else?  Would a fresh install of Lion help?
    Thank you!
    Mike
    Two pieces of information that may or may not b helpful, the hard drive is from my early 2008 MBP and the only test disc I have access to is from an iMac.

    Why do you have LION installed on that older machine?
    So you say you built a macbook from a bucket of parts eh?   Kudos

    I have already customized the CHRGES/EXPENSES in Bank Determination Tab (transaction Code FBZP) to the corresponding Bank Subledger(outgoing) and also the Charge Indicator to the corressponding House Bank.
    the transaction key BSP is already assigned with the ledger(Bank Charges)

    But , that system is not calculating the bank charges as it is configured in the system at the time of payment through APP when a full MM invoice verification cycle is running
    Can anybody help me out?

  • CST not calculating on Delivery Charges

    Dear Users,
    I have a issue in my PO cst is calculating on delivery charges but while posting MIRO document CST not calculating on delivery charges its showing tax code 'V0' for delivery charges. Please suggest me with a solution.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Shyam

    Hi,
    During invoice (MIRO), tax code will flow from Purchase Order to Invoice- You have following options:
    Option:1=> You need remove default tax code in MIRO header (as tax code set as default entry in MIRO).As needed by you keep selecting CST tax code, just select check box of "Calculate tax" and check details to enter total invoice value by having balance ZERO and post document.
    Option:2=> Check your CST condition type present and assign to your tax procedure in following path:
    SPRO --- > Logistics general ---> tax on Goods Movements--- > India ----> Condition-Based Excise Determination ---- > Classify Condition Types
    Option:3=> Cross check validity period of CST condition type with your CST tax code in FV13 t.code,
    if not available- just extend validity period in t.code:FV12

    Hi,
    please select a particular document type(except DR/KR) for customers/vendors for interest postings.
    so that system post interest postings only this document type. While doing the interest calculation you can exclude this document type, so that interest can be calculated only on invoice line items only.

  • DAX Dynamic Banding | Calculated Member based on Calculated Field

    Good morning,
    I've created a Power Pivot model that measures the blood glucose levels of clinical patients at specific times of the day. The requirement is that this metric, let's call it GlucoseLevel, is always averaged as it wouldn't make sense to sum up the values.
    To meet this first requirement, I set the "Summarize By" property of the GlucoseLevel column to "Average".
    The second requirement is to band the GlucoseLevel values so that groups of people can be measured by this band rather than by the individual measure values. I created a banding table in Excel and then imported it into the Power Pivot model. The banding table
    has three columns (BandName, MinValue and MaxValue) and has the following values:
    VERYLOW: Min Value = 0; Max Value = 3.99
    OK: Min Value = 4; Max Value = 6.99
    WARNING: Min Value = 7; Max Value = 10.99CRITICAL: Min Value = 11; Max Value = 30.00
    It is at this point where I face my challenge. I have a GlucoseLevel measure and I have a banding table. Great. The challenge is: How do I create a calculated, dynamic
    member that will look at my GlucoseLevel measure (at whatever level), do a lookup to my banding table, and then return the "BandName" column from the Banding table at that specific level? So to clarify what I mean by level: I want to be able
    to view the bandings at Year level, or a Month level, or even at a week level. Then depending on what level I am at, my measure should have a Band associated to it.
    I've tried to solve this issue in a couple of ways:
    Attempt 1
    Create a calculated column in my fact table that contains a nested IF statement to manually band my GlucoseLevel values. This works fine if I view my data at the lowest level of granularity, however
    it does not work if I start looking at my data at the day, week, month etc. levels
    Attempt 2
    1.) Create a calculated field (not a calculated column) that averages my GlucoseLevel measure. This is cool because it will average my measure at whatever level I am viewing it at. Let's call
    this field Bob...
    2.) Band my measure Bob by creating another calculated field (called PatientBand). This field uses my banding table (described earlier) in conjunction with my calculated field Bob. This works perfectly, except for one big flaw: Excel sees this banding field
    as a measure, and not as something that I can use as a column / row...
    So my question is: Can I trick Excel into viewing my PatientBand calculated field as an attribute, and not as a measure? And if not, how do I get around this challenge? Here is the DAX formula that I used to create my second calculated field "PatientBand":
    PatientBand:=CALCULATE(
        VALUES (Bandings[BandName]);
        FILTER (
            Bandings; 
            Test[Bob] >= Bandings[MinValue]
         && Test[Bob] <= Bandings[MaxValue]
    Thanks!

    So there are 2 ways that I can think of for doing that.
    1) if you are only using MDX clients like Excel or Reporting services you can create a text based measure that returns the banding name. (Note that this sort of approach does not work at the moment with PowerView as it only displays numeric measures). This
    would effectively let you show a label next to a reading as opposed to moving the reading under a given banding column.
    Banding Name :=
    CALCULATE (
        VALUES ( Bands[BandName] ),
        FILTER (
            Bands,
            [Average of GlucoseReading] >= Bands[BandMin]
                && [Average of GlucoseReading] <= Bands[BandMax]
                && NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
    2) This next approach will show the results exactly as you had them in your sample screenshots. It just takes a slight bending of the DAX. I'm using a SUMX here, not because I want to sum anything, but because the "X" version of SUMX basically loops over
    every row in the specified table and sums the expression in the second parameter. I have setup the second parameter so that it only returns a single value for the average if it is in the appropriate banding. 
    Banded Average:=IF (
        HASONEVALUE ( Bands[BandName] ),
        SUMX(
            'Bands',
            IF (
                NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
                    && [Average of GlucoseReading] >= MIN ( Bands[BandMin] )
                    && [Average of GlucoseReading] <= MIN ( Bands[BandMax] ),
                AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading]),
                BLANK()
    ,AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading])

  • "Interest on Arrears calculation" vs "Item Interest Calculation"

    Hi all,

    Item Interest Calculation
        In this activity you make the general settings for the individual

        postprocessing, output control, and for posting.
    Account Balance Interest Calculation
         In this step you make general specifications for each interest indicator
         for the account balance interest calculation. These include

    You have to have the special SiriusXM account for listening and you must have a regular SiriusXM subscription. Cost is around $15.00 per month. The Live365 app only requires a $7.95 per month subscription and provides much more than SiriusXM.

    I am trying to link my iphone 3 via bluetooth to a plantronics voyager 520. Both items are charged, bluetooth turned on etc. My phone searches but cannot find the signal. Any ideas? Alan

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

  • Free of charge item tax calculation

    Hi all
    I have a requirement for VAT calculation for free of charge item in sales order.
    For these items (item category TANN) with VPRS for internal price condition and MWST for VAT tax condition i'm able to calculate the value for VAT accounts purpose.
    Is there any exit that enables me to create this? Will it be in SD invoice registry?
    thanks in advance

    Hi
    If you are asking whether the congiguration is possible it is certainly possible in standards itself with alignment of condition types
    Normally we will place condition type MWST after R100
    In this case MWST should be placed before R100
    It is the same as suggested by Mr. Murali but the important thing which he missed out is After placing R 100 after MWST you have to Fill up FROM and TO for condition type R100 excluding the step nos of MWST
    Suppose PR00 is step 10
    Then it should be MWST Step 20
    Then R 100 step 30  For this R100 you should fill up from and to as 10 and 10
    Now when a material is Rs100 and 10 + 1 free is there and if the order is for 10 units and if the tax ix 4 %
    then the nett value will be Rs 1000(10x100)
    tax value will be Rs 44 (tax is calculated for 11 units at 4%)

  • Magsafe Charger not charging - when it lights up may not work

    I started experiencing this a few weeks ago. Since then I have gone through 2 adapters.
    The magnet works and everything, but it doesnt light up, and where that battery is up there it doesn't show any signs of recognition.
    I have to wiggle it a little bit and apply some pressure to get it working.
    Even then, it still sometimes doesn't work. It'll be green and say "Not Charging".
    It doesn't always do that though. Sometimes it will charge. I have a new battery (from around christmas time) so it cant be the battery... i wouldn't think anyways.
    Another thing, is when I get it charging, I have to lay it perfectly still. One little tiny bump or something will cause the light to go off and stop charging. I've cleaned the magsafe part and the part it lpugs into the computer. I have the same problem.

  • HT1476 How do I get my iPhone 5 charger to charge my phone? Nothing happens when i plug it in.

    My Iphone 5 won't charge when i plug it in, there is no message to say it isn't recognised or anything it just won't charge. I replaced my charger and am still having the same problem, could someone please help me.

    Hi Luci,
    If the iPhone that you are attempting to charge has the battery completely deleted of all charge it will take a period of time before the charge that is coming from the charging source gives the device enough charge to the device such that the display is able to then display that the charger is charging sucessfully. If you plug the device into a charger (again if the device is completely drained of battery charge) and it doesn't immedateily show that it's chraging that is completely consistent with how the device is expected to work. Please allow the device to charge for a period of at least a couple of hours before determining that the charger isn't working correctly. Hope this helps.
    Good luck.

  • Calculation of Interest Charges to be monthly not every day via T code FINT

    Hi There;
    I made system configuration and the T code FINT is calculating Interest charges on customer account. There are two requirements from client.
    1- The calculation could be made i through background job.
    2- The program is calculating interest on dialy basis. While the requirement is it should calculate the interest on monthly basis.
    Further, I also noticed that the program doesn't consider the partial payment received from customer, rather calculates interest on amount due not the remaining balance. I tried with both method i.e. "Arrears" and "Balance" but giving me the same result.
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Arshad

    Hi Parag;
    Thank you for reply.
    I tried to maintain the values as you mentioned in your mail. But the system is not letting me to maintain Calendar Type "G" with a check mark on "Month -end Indicator" field. I tried with "J" Calendar type to see if it could calculate the interest for 30 days even the program is being executed after 45 days or 20 days. The requirement is in either case the program should calculate interest for whole month.
    I am using T code FINT to calculate interest on customer over dues. Still the program is claculating the interest based on the date of execution. While if it is restricted to execute monthly in config the program should only do it on monthly basis. Which is not hapenning right now. I think I am still missing somthing.
    Once again I appreciate your help and time. Please let me know if you have a solution to this issue.
    Thanks
