Capacity decreased

The capacity of my 1GB ipod shuffle second generation reduced to 967Mb after I changed my computer and restored the Ipod.Previously it showed 1Gb.does restoring or resetting to factory settings reduce capacity.I use windows xp.

All 1GB iPod shuffles only have 967MB total, brand new from the factory.
does restoring or resetting to factory settings reduce capacity
No.

[Enquiry] Battery capacity decreased

Product name: HP ENVY Sleekbook 4
Running window 8 64bits Single language
Hi there,I would like to ask about my battery capacity.
Please take a look on 2 screen-shots here.

Both of screen-shots were taken in same day but different time.
As you can see,my battery capacity mah is decreasing from time to time.
It made me worried,I'm afraid soon my laptop can't hold any longer at outdoor without external power.I brought within a month,there is no doubt if my battery age is old from the time of manufactured
Before I post,I have searched few article on internet,I discover something called battery calibration,but I'm not familiar with it.I'm here to look whether any solution to increase my battery mah,please guide me.

3602 mAh down to 3587 mAh is within the margin of error for measurement. About 4 tenths of one percent. I don't see any decline in the capacity of the battery. One screenshot is showing it fully charged and one is showing it at 87% charge. Maybe I am missing something but where do you see that the capacity has declined to any significant extent?

My battery capacity decreases per charge!!!

Hi guys I need help, I am very frustrated about this matter , This is my first macbook pro retine late 2013 the latest one out yet 4gb ram baseline model with the dubal core i5. I started playing LOL or League of Legends an online game a few weeks back.
When I did start I was completely hooked and played multiple hours even with the battery charger plugged in. The battery lost its total capacity from 6300 its about 6200 then it fell 6150 ok then I statred carying ok I LOVE MY MAC AND ITS BATTERY.
So i went like ok i will play max 40 mins per day, fine huh 1 time per charge cycle make sure the charge cycle is 20 hrs long I have been trying to do this more or less BUT EVEYTIME I PLAY THE GAME EVEN IF THE CHARGE drop is only 30% my total battery capacity drops.
I am checking this through MULTIPLE apps and every time i play the drop is bloody 0.5 percent and i CANT TAKE IT and when i dont play on a chrge cycle there is NO DROP IN THE OVERALL capacity.
Note i take soo much care when i pay i charge it to 100 and keep it ice cold when i play and its not plugged in. Any advice are the apps wrong is my capacity decresing are macs not meant for gaming or if i conture down this path will i have to eventully replace my battery just any adivce or thoughts on this matter will be VERY APPRECIATED!!!

When Taxing the system, Running it Hard as most all games do, it will draw power from both the AC charger and the battery at the same time.
The AC charger Apple supplies is not large enough to do both Power the system and charge the battery, or even keep the same charge on the battery, when the system is working hard.
As to the overall capacity of the battery that will go down with the increase of charge cycles.
What you are seeing is completely normal for all Mac notebook computers.

Battery Capacity decreasing rapidly

I have a new 11" Air, and i have noticed something very concerning.
The capacity of the battery (the maximum amount of charge it can hold) is dropping rapidly.
In the 3 days I have had it, it has already dropped to 97%.
It charges fine and lasts as long as it should, but the max capacity it can charge to is dropping so rapidly that it'll be down to zero in 3 months!
I am using System Profiler/Power to interrogate the battery, and if I compare it to my MacBook Pro 13, the difference is stark.
The MBP13 after 7 months of use and some 50 charges is still showing around 100.2% capacity - in fact, it has hardly budged at all since it was new.
The Air was at about 99.5% when I first powered it on, but it is dropping very fast.
Any ideas?
Shame, otherwise i love it!!!

Hi,
hmm.. if you dont mind, I suggest you to carry your power adapter with you and plug it in to any power source when you start booting your MBA to prevent your MBA from using the power form the battery. This will greatly reduce the cycle count. I think the cycle count is more important than the health because Apple wrote a software to monitor the health based on the cycle count. Meaning, the health of your battery may in fact good, but the cycle count is, say above 300 and thus software ask the owner to change the battery.
If you think that this way may work for you, remember to calibrate your battery every 3 months.
Hope it helps.
Cheers.

What is going to stop my "other" capacity increasing every time i sync new videos to my ipad 2?

I have read several posts all indicating there is a big problem with syncing and "other" capacity increasing.
Everytime i change my video content (every few days) my "other" storage volume increases and total capacity decreases in line with the videos i've removed from the ipad. having done 2 or 3 syncs my other volume is up to 16gb. i am aware that performing a restore will fix this temporarily but i am not going to restore 64 gb of data every 2 or 3 syncs.
what is the proper and actual solution to this problem? (i.e. not restoring constantly)

Frozen SSD capacity

Hello community,
First of all : MBA 13" mid-12 i7 HD4000 8gb ram 256 SSD
Here is my issue : i've been using iStat Menu for a while now and today i noticed that i'm not gaining back any room on my SSD when i delete content.
For instance, i transfered a 20gb folder on an external drive in order to free some space on my SSD. Once I it got done, i deleted the folder from my laptop and noticed no space was gained back. Eventhough after i empty the trash and restarted the dude.
The thing is, it works the other way arround : i downloaded a file a little later and this time the capacity decreased as expected.
One more thing (: i don't know if somehow it could be related but i set up a time machine backup through an external hard drive (500go : 400 for TM and 100 for classique storage) right before i notice the thing.
Thanks in advance for your help and excuse my english, i'm a french membre.

Could be Time Machine local snapshots related. iStat Menu is showing the "real free space" I assume? Check if your Finder indicates any free space changes when you remove files.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4878
At the end of the support article:
Note: You may notice a difference in available space statistics between Disk Utility, Finder, and Get Info inspectors. Those differences are expected and can be safely ignored. The Finder displays the available space on the disk without accounting for the local snapshots, because local snapshots will surrender their disk space if needed.

What is normal capacity versus number of cycles?

I own a MacBook Core 2 Duo 15" 3.33 GHz bought in November 2006.
I use it many hours a day on battery. Only when the low battery message appears do I connect it to power. It stays connected to power all night long (7 hours). The battery charges always to full capacity (99-100%) without problem.
But I am surprised by the way the maximum capacity is falling. For the first 6 months, the current capacity decreased slowly to 84-85% of the maximum.
I always apply all the updates including the battery update 1.2.
These last weeks, battery capacity as fallen to 50-55% but once it was again in the 80. From time to time I do a calibration of the battery.
Now, since a few days, in has dropped as low as 48% of the maximum. Number of cycles is reported as 360 for a total of 10 months.
I have made a new calibration leaving the computer alone for 5 hours after going to sleep after the low battery message, charging completely, leaving the computer connected for two hours,.. Capacity went from 46 to 50%.
In view of the high humber of cycles, is this a normal behaviour?

I calibrated my battery two times more (!); after the first operation capacity went to 54% and I used the computer normally; when power was nearly exhausted it suddenly jumped to 84%: a few minutes later the computer went to sleep.
After the second calibration, capacity was first given as 52% and completely charged (100%) . I didn't use the MacBook Pro for more than a few minutes and then I shut it down and left there not connected to AC for a few hours. Using it now, capacity is back at 84%.
I am working for more than an hour now on battery and everything seems to stay OK.
If this value for the capacity is maintained I will certainly not need to call Applecare as indeed the battery is within spec.
Thanks for the feedback.

Is About this mac/more info/power reliable for battery capacity assessment

Hi,
I calibrated my brand new battery for my Alubook 15". Here are the results :
First cycle : 4200 mah
Second cycle : 4520 mah
Third cycle : 4370 mah
Fourth cycle : 4220 mah
Fifth : 3920 mah.
The battery was sold for 4700 mah.
1. Does this get any sense ? would you worry about future battery performances based on this capacity decrease from the third cycle ?
2. I have read that resetting PRAM may reset this battery power assessment to more reliable data : Any experience about this ?

Luc --
You raise some interesting points, at least one of which we debated (without resolution ;-)) prior to the change over to the New Discussions -- that concerned whether the batteries used by the new revision of PowerBooks were qualitatively different than the ones used by previous revisions. I don't think we came to a firm conclusion on this.
But on two other points you raise we did at least draw some firm observations, if not flat out conclusions.
The first has to do with the 10.4.3 update and whether it may have had power management effects for the better. I personally noticed a slight increase in my battery life since the update, which I have attributed (at least in part) to the fact that a process that runs almost all the time in the background (having, I think, something to do with the trackpad and related functions) called "kernel_task" now runs at about half the CPU usage that it used to. It used to regularly consume 7-8% of my CPU resources. Now, when I check in Activity Monitor, "kernel_task" regularly consumes about 2.5-3.5%.
The second relates to the new PowerBook revisions, their greater stated battery life and any hardware changes made in them that may be responsible therefor. Here, I remember reading in several places on these Boards and elsewhere that the type of RAM used by the new PowerBook revisions, i.e., PC2-4200 DDR2 SDRAM (running at 333 MHz), while it may not necessarily be faster than the type of RAM used in the previous PB revisions (PC-2700 DDR SDRAM) (since both types of RAM are running at the same 333 MHz in each model), the DDR2 RAM used in the new revision PBs does consume significantly less power to run. Therefore, it seems to have heavily contributed to the new revision PB's claim to longer battery life. Indeed, I've read that since both RAM types run at the same speed in the PB, it was precisely because of the low power consumption signature of the DDR2 RAM that was the reason it was chosen for the new revision PBs.
Well, good luck testing out your new PB and it's battery. Let us know how it all turns out and, of course, feel free to post back if we can be of any further assistance.
Bonne chance! A bientôt.
Oh, by the way, as for battery capacity and degradation over time and with use, you might find my own statistics to be of interest. I've run off battery power quite extensively since I got my PB in March of this year, and, after 164 complete cycles in about 9 months of use (including may times where the battery was completely drained), my original stated capacity of 4400 mAh has only decreased to 4228 mAh (using the same Apple battery that came with my PB when I first got it). I think that's pretty decent from what I've heard and seen with others.
Later.

Why is my Ipod touch 4 no longer charging?

My sons IPod touch 4 is about one year old and the charger rarely connects properly so that battery will charge. It aslo seems that the original battery runs out of juice very quickly. Any advice or similar experience?

With use, battery capacity decreases. Also, the newer iOS seem to drain the battery faster.
Have you tried another cable?
Does it charge OK on the computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for foreign material, bend or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic pieces.

Will using iphone while charging use up battery cycle?

battery capacity decreases as we repeat charging / using the phone.
but what if we use it while it is being charged? will it just use power from
the power source or charge+use up batter at the same time?
i hope it can just use draw power from the external power source and leave
the battery alone if it's full, then I can just use bluetooth and leave
the phone in the dock to not waste battery cycles.

There are two issues here. A cycle is the EQUIVALENT of one complete use of the battery from fully charged to depleted. But it can take place over multiple uses and charges. There is no way to avoid using cycles (or portions of them) other than leaving the phone plugged in all the time. Which brings us to issue two:
The worst thing you can do to your battery (other than letting it get very hot) is to leave it plugged in all the time. This is not because it will overcharge. As others have pointed out, the phone is smart enough to prevent overcharging. But li-ion polymer batteries like to get some "exercise" to say fresh. Apple recommends the equivalent of at least one cycle per month. If it's plugged in constantly, it will not get enough exercise and its capacity will diminish.

Battery dies so quick seems due to a dead loop in SMS

Battery dies so quick seems due to a dead loop in SMS
I don't know how to reproduce, but this problem bothers me for a couple of days.
Not sure if it is global romaing problem, beacause I am a China mobile user currently in Sweden.
I switched off my "MCDN" in general settings to avoid high data traffic fee.
And *I find it is not possible to delete SMS when I swipe on one row, the delte button show up for like 2 seconds, then aotomatically disappear;*
*Also tried click "edit"-> minus button, the result is the same that the delte button show up for like 2 seconds, then aotomatically disappear;*

Yes, notification and also location services and wifi and blutooth drain the battery.
With time/number of charge cycles the battery capacity decrease.
You did not descripe/quantify what you mean by Pretty Quick
I have a iPhone 4S and am satisfied with battery life.
