Calibrate battery went straight to shut down  and not sleep

I let my computer run all the way down. The warning came up. When I went back a few minutes later, I am assuming the computer was shut down on it's own. There was no pulsing light in front. According to the kbase, I thought it was suppose to goto sleep first..

So, I decided to test this once again.
Tonight, I let me computer run on battery until the warning message came up. It went to sleep, the light pulsed on front for about 5 seconds. Then it stopped and the computer seemed to shut down.
I thought it was suppose to still sleep for awhile.....and not shut down.

    The problem is your friend's music does not belong to you.  It is owned by your friend.
    I'm afraid you cannot do what you are trying to do.  Restoring the iPhone is what you would have to do.
    In the future, put your music on the computer and transfer it to the iPhone, not the other way.

  • A pages document was shut down and not saved where can I still find this document

    Need help finding a pages document that was typed up and then the computer was shut down and We are not sure if it had been saved. Can we locate this document if it was never saved and how do we do that? Please Help!!!

    If the battery is dead the only way to find it is to physically look for it.

  • Ipad will just shut down and not power back on until it is plugged in

    Ipad will just shut down and will not reboot until it is plugged in. Any suggestions??

    I'm going to guess that your battery isnt just dead?
    Have you tried a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider  and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
    If it won't hold a charge, make an appointment at your local apple store and have them take a look at it.

  • Calibrate Battery for Mid 2010 MBP 15" and "safe" sleep

    Ok, I have read various posts on what is suppose to happen. I know Apple changed the way the "computer will goto sleep when battery is drained after warning message" function from the earlier non-clam-shell MBP's did. But, I have gotten mixed messages on that as well.
    What happens on my MBP when I run the battery down is that a warning message pops up, then if I do not put it to sleep or plug power in, it shuts down into safe sleep mode with the result being NOT a pulsating sleep light like the non-clam shell MBP's.
    If you read:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490
    I am assuming safe sleep is not like normal sleep in that no pulsating light is present? From the link above... (but doesn't mention that "safe sleep" is a non-pulsating light version..
    *Tip: When the battery reaches "empty", the computer is forced into sleep mode. The battery actually keeps back a reserve beyond "empty", to maintain the computer in sleep for a period of time. Once the battery is truly exhausted, the computer is forced to shut down. At this point, with the safe sleep function introduced in the PowerBook G4 (15-inch Double-Layer SD) computers, the computer's memory contents have been saved to the hard drive. When power is restored, the computer returns itself to its pre-sleep state using the safe sleep image on the hard drive.*
    So, is this what others with this model are seeing?

    I'm using the early 2011 model of the MBP 15". I experienced the same thing. I used the battery until it got to 0% and then the display turned off. The sleep light only glowed once and then faded and did not pulsate. When I pressed the Power Button, that brought up a grayed version of the desktop. And then after a few seconds, I was back to the normal desktop. Is that the same thing that happened to you?

  • IBook will suddenly shut down and not turn back on

    My iBook (apporx. 5 yrs. old) will suddenly shut down while I'm working and not back on. Most of the time after it's been turned off for days it won't turn back on, although it's plugged in and the battery is charged 100%. But on the occations it does power up, everything works properly. Could my battery be completly shot?
    iBook   Mac OS 9.0.x  

    I too have that problem, but since apple replaced my battery for free, it still does that. I once heard that once your iBook reaches a certain temperature, it will just turn off the screen. usually when it happens to me, I just restart my machine the old way (control-apple-power), but it isn't so good either from what I understand! it is a bad way to work, but until apple fixes the bug, we'll just have to live!
    (ps) is there any reason you still run os 9 (cause it is officially discontinued as of 2004)? you should be able to purchase mac OS X (10.2 or 10.3) from ebay or your local mac repair shop (we fix macs in palo alto, ca probably sells it still) I just wanted to inform you of this since you obviously had no idea!

  • Why does my 3-year old MBP shut down and not start?

    I have a mid-2010 MPB running Mt Lion and it is giving me fits.  It consistently shuts down for no reason.  I have taken it to the Genius bar and been told that I should add additional memory, so I have doubled the RAM with a new unit.  The problem is that did nothing.  I keep having to restart and now it seems not to want to start at all, so I can't do anything or learn anything.  I have the basic MBP but I have 2011 Office for Mac and the other basic apps on board.  Any ideas?

  • My iPod touch 4th gen is shutting down and not playing music?

    so here is the story:
    lately my iPod touch 4th gen will become frozen, or slow whenever i am using it. However within the last 2 weeks it has shut itself down completely (even though there was always more than half charge) 3 times and won't allow me to turn it on for about 2-3 days. It also will not play music anymore, and instead is either silent or sounds of static. I am just wondering if there is anyway I can fix it or if I need to buy a new iPod.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My iphone suddenly shut down  and  it not trun on  what  is the  problem?, my iphone suddenly shut down  and  it not trun on  what  is the  problem?

    hi
    i don't  know  why  my  i phone suddenly shut down and  not  be  on at all
    may u  halp  me ?

    Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take 10 to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
