Charging ipad mini issue. Urgent help needed.

Please help me. Past 2 days, I notice my ipad took longer time to fully charge. Normally, it just take around 3-3.5 hours, but now it take 8 hours to complete. What is the problem, was it my ipad, or my charger adapter issue.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Direct Deposit Issues Urgent Help needed

    We recently switched to DD. We had a new employee come in and give us incorrect account info. So when payroll was run, this employee did not get money in his account. It went to a different account.
    I need help asap on how you all handle this situation? Is there any way for us to generate a NACHA file to do a debit to the incorrect account? If not, how do you handle this at your company? We have even opened a SR and they are telling us the application can't do this. There has to be a way to correct errors and we don't know what this is.
    Please help us and let me know how you all handle DD errors like this. We are needing to find a solution to this as quickly as possible.
    thanks
    Ronnie
    [email protected]

    Yep, you are in a tough situation there. Trying to take money out of an account is a whole different story from putting money into an account. Technically you need the approval of the account owner to do a debit to the incorrect account. My suggestion - contact your bank and ask them how best to recover this money from the account that it went to. I am surprised that the receiving bank accepted the deposit. Surely you are including the employee name in the ACH detail, correct? Normally such an error would come back as a reject. You would void the payment and issue a new payment (either check or ACH).
    What we do here is that the first week we do a prenote entry for an employee. No dollars. You are not required to do a prenote, but it can save you a lot of problems. We also ask the employee to provide a blank (voided) check from their checking account. That helps avoid getting bad information from an employee. Anyway, if the employee gives you bad information, the pre-note should come back with a reject, you would go back to the employee and get the right data, reset the prenote process and do another pre-note, and once good, start doing the ACH payment.
    So I suggest - 1) Find out why this payment was not rejected but accepted into the wrong account, 2) Do a prenote process, and 3) Have employees submit a check (voided) with their ACH request form. Do steps 2 and 3 and you should not have errors. But do ask your bank what they recommend doing if a payment does get accepted to the wrong account.

  • ERD Design Issue Urgent help needed .

    Hi ,
    I'm designing a movie theatre system . I was drawing the ERD Diagram but I'm stuck .
    One theatre can have many movies and One movie can be run on many shows .So I have created seperate Theatre and Movie tables and another associative table containing only MovieID and Theatre ID .
    Now number of shows in a theatre are fixed .. Morning ,Evening and Night .
    The problem comes when I want to find which movie is running on which theatre and what is the show timimg . If I create another table as show table having theatre id and showid (say 1 is Morning and so on ) then how to relate that with movie .I tried a lot but not being able to find out .
    How will I design the tables so that they are in 3rd Normal form .Its a bit urgent.
    Please help me out .
    Regards,
    Rahul .

    Hi Rahul
    If I were you, then to make it flexible i would have tables for
    1) Theatre
    2) Movie
    3) Show
    4) movie_show_theatre_mapping
    And according to your design it should be
    1) Theatre
    2) Movie
    3) Show table with foreign key to theatre
    4) Show_movie_mapping
    Here you can find the movie timing at a particular theatre by quering
    show_movie_mapping and show table where theatre id is a foreign key in show table.

  • Oracle 9i OMS Login issues - URGENT help needed !

    Hi,
    I am a new user for ORACLE 9i (windows 2003 server ) and I am in deep trouble! I need to take backup of an existing database in our production server but I cannot login to the OEM as I do not know the sysdba ( userid & Password). The worst part is that no one knows the Admin userid & password.
    I can login to the standalone database using the sys password.
    Question1 : Is there any other way to login in the OMS ???
    Question2: Is there any other way of taking backup of the Database ???
    Message was edited by:
    PC5

    Question1 : Is there any other way to login in the OMS ???
    Use system user login , Also once you can login as sysdba on sqlplus
    you change password as well
    Alter user sys identified by <password> ;
    Alter user system identified by <password> ;
    Question2: Is there any other way of taking backup of the Database ???Yes you can take backup manually as well but,
    What kind of backup you want to take logical or physical backup ?

  • Licence Issue  --urgent help needed

    Hi all,
    I'm working on a configuration management for a OWB data warehouse environment.
    The client is going to buy two iDS package for two developers involved in OWB development.
    Can anyone answer two outstanding questions from the DBA who is going to implement the configuration stuff?
    Q1: Do we need additional licence of iDS on QA server and Production server? Or we can install iDS on more than one server but limit the use to these two developers?
    Q2: Do we need to buy extra licence ($1200 for each named user) for the schemas created when using OWB, including: owb (Build Repository),
    rtr( Run Time Owner),
    rtu( Run Time Access User)
    two target schema (one for staging, one for data warehouse schema).
    If yes, do we need to buy for all the servers(Development, QA, Production).This is realy painful to ask client to buy just because we choose to use OWB.
    Besides, there is another owbrt_sys created by OWB. Licence also needed for this one?
    You may suggest me talk to the Local Oracle representative. Yes, the DBA did. And DBA got different answers from different guy like:
    Answer 1: You don't need to buy iDS on QA and Prod servers as you can just copy your schemas (exp/imp) from Development to QA and Production where you can just run your ETL script generated from OWB.
    (I'm surprised for this)
    Answer 2: Install Runtime repository on Servers where you don't have OWB installed by doing a remote installation. So we don't need OWB(iDS licence for thise servers).
    Sounds good idea and smart. But I failed to do that. The error message shows like :
    INS0034: The Database Server needs to be configured by
    Running Runtime Repository option locally. Please run
    The Runtime Assistant on the Server where the database
    Is located.
    But I can do the remote install of runtime repository after install OWB on the server.
    Thanks for anything about this from your experience or knowledge.
    Daming

    Damming,
    iDS is licensed per developer - if you have 2 developers, you need to buy 2 licenses, if 3, 3 licenses etc. There is no license for the runtime.
    You need to have an Enterprise edition Oracle DB license though.

  • URGENT HELP NEEDED - iPhone 3Gs no longer detected or charged by MacBook

    My iPhone 3Gs (3.1) has been running fine, until several hours ago today, when I plugged it to my MacBook, the iPhone is no longer detected - it doesn't show up in iTunes, nor it is charged. I tried opening iPhoto, and it wasn't there too. Not with Image Capture too. I tried charging it using the out-of-box wall charger using the same out-of-box USB cable I use for MacBook, and it can be charged without any problem. Then I put it into Recovery mode, and there iTunes can see it. I don't want to restore it before I figure out exactly what went wrong, as I don't want the restore process somehow gets stuck in the middle that the connection is lost again.
    I've tried reinstalled iTunes, including completely removal of Apple Mobile Device Support, as instructed by Apple. But still no luck.
    I've tried switching to another USB port of my MacBook. No luck.
    My iTunes is the latest 9.0.1, and my Mac OSX is 10.6.1. My iPhone is on 3.1, upgraded from 3.0.
    I've read from web that it seems I'm not the only one out there having this problem. But none of them seem having any real working solution.
    Urgent help needed & appreciated. Millions of thanks in advance.
    Gary

    1. I used both cables - theirs & mine ... and on several macs
    2. yes, same cable for wall & mac
    3. as said, i did completely remove & install itunes (incl. apple mobile device support), as instructed on the apple webpage
    anyway, did a restore just now. it seems okay now. but the problem is i have no idea what cause this, and i can't replicate the problem. so i don't know when it will happen again ... maybe a bug with os 3.1 ... others on web said os 3.1 is quite buggy ...

  • URGENT HELP NEEDED ... Tomcat Realm and JRE1.4 plug-in problem

    I have tried the Security Realm of Tomcat. Since I do not have
    an LDAP server, I decided to use the Tomcat-users.xml file in
    Tomcat\conf directory.
    I added the following lines of code in the web.xml file.
    <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>Entire Application</web-resource-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
    <!-- NOTE: This role is not present in the default users file -->
    <role-name>webviewer</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
    </security-constraint>
    <login-config>
    <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
    <realm-name>Tomcat Manager Application</realm-name>
    </login-config>
    The <role-name> "webviewer" is added into "Tomcat-Users.xml" as the following:
    <tomcat-users>
    <user name="test" password="password" roles="webviewer" />
    </tomcat-users>
    So, now when we type the url: http://localhost:8080/adbpdbre/default.htm, TOMCAT shows a dialog box asking for UserName: and Password:Now, only when we give the username and password, it shows the page. This is exactly what we want.
    But the problem now is, this default.htm page, has 5 links to 5 applets. The first time that I click on one of these links, the JRE plug of 1.4 shows a dialog again asking for the username and password. Till I dont provide the username and password the system doesnt go ahead and applet doesnt load. I do not want the JRE to ask me for the username/passwords again..How to avoid this ?
    Can you give me some more information on this. Ultimately in the production usage, we will be using LDAP and not Tomcat's memory realm.
    URGENT HELP NEEDED ... I need to get back to my client on this.
    Help would be v. much appreciated.

    In the config file, you 're essentially saying that you want Tomcat to prompt for usr/passw on every request (url-pattern = /*) made by a 'webviewer', and that's exactly what Tomcat is doing.
    Consider using specific url-patterns & roles for resources to be protected. If for now, all you need is to protect the first page, use a more specific url-pattern.
    Just an advice : if you'll be using LDAP in production, do not waste time with Tomcat's Security Realm and the BASIC authentication type, since the two have not much in common. Start reading doc on LDAP, and code a prototype, or even better, a vertical slice of the app (i.e a proof of concept).

  • Urgent help needed, can I restore N900 Backup file...

    i owned a N900 (now sold out)
    before selling i took backup of contacts from backup restore option in application section
    now i bought a N8 but i m not able to restore my contacts
    1. is there any way to restore them in N8?
    2. if not, can i convert them in TEXT or any readable format
    urgent help needed
    thanks in advance

    The backup procedures built into the phone are only designed for restoring to the same phone (ie: in case or data corruption, software update or repair etc.), they can't usually be used to restore to a phone with a different operating system.
    You should have backed up with Ovi Suite before selling the N900, that would have been able to restore to the N8.

  • Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail!!

    Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail?
    I had 7 junk mails come in this morning, 5 went straight to junk and 2 more I junked.
    When I clicked on the Junk folder to empty it, it froze Mail and I can't click on anything, I had to force quit Mail and re-open it. When it re-opens the Junk folder is selected and it is froze, I can't do anything.
    I repaired permissions, it did nothing.
    I re-booted my computer, on opening Mail the In folder was selected, when I selected Junk, again, it locks up Mail and I can't select them to delete them?
    Anyone know how I can delete these Junk mails from my Junk folder without having to open Mail to do it as it would appear this will be the only solution to the problem.

    Hi Nigel
    If you hold the Shift key when opening the mail app, it will start up without any folders selected & no emails showing. Hopefully this will enable you to start Mail ok.
    Then from the Mail menus - choose Mailbox-Erase Junk Mail . The problem mail should now be in the trash. If there's nothing you want to retain from the Trash, you should now choose Mailbox- Erase Deleted Messages....
    If you need to double-check the Trash for anything you might want to retain, then view the Trash folder first, before using Erase Junk Mail & move anything you wish to keep to another folder.
    The shift key starts Mail in a sort of Safe mode.
