Do you have to fully charge the battery before first use?

I just bought a macbook air and i'm wondering if I should wait for the battery to fully charge before I turn the computer on (like you usually do with phones, cameras etc.)
or can I just plug in the AC charger and get started right away?

Hi Alice,
I recommend you check out this article for some advice.

A good practice that I follow is to do a battery calibration right away and then plan to do one about every 4-6 weeks.

I have just updated my 4s to IOS7. and now my battery discharge is significantly increase. With my Iphone fully charged, the battery run out within 6 hours without using the phone at all. Would it be possible to get the IOS 6.1.3 back to my 4S?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

Is it best to fully charge the battery when you first get your laptop

Is it best to fully charge the battery when you first get your laptop?
I remember buying a bluetooth earpiece and I had to do that in order get the most out of the battery due to the memory it has or something like that..
are macbooks the same??

I agree. I HATE having to wait for the battery to charge on my new Palms and Macs before using them - I guess GOD teaches us patience in strange ways (hee, hee).

Error in LSMW for new matl-You have not fully maintained the descriptions

Hi Experts,
I am creating a LSMW to create a new material master, but at the end part get the error "You have not fully maintained the descriptions" Message no. MG171. I am using the Standard batch/direct input" and Program Name RMDATIND.
Can you please help me.
Thanks and Regards,
Amol Kale

Amol,
as description is mandatory field while creating material, you need to assign description text.
also check are you maintaining multiple langauges during this material xreation , if yes, you need to give discription for all langauges.
hope it will help you.
Thanks

LSMW - RMDATIND - You have not fully maintained the tax classifications

Hi,
I am trying to extend existing materials to new sales organization through LSMW and direct input. I have only one file containing a "header" for the material general data, and "line items" to manage material taxes for other countries than the one defined for the current sales organization.
I have created 2 nested structures as following:
ZMATERIAL_ALL (parent structure)
          |__ ZMATERIAL_TAXES (child structure)
In the structure fields, the first field is the header or line identifier:
ZMATERIAL_ALL
          |__ HEADER -> With Identifying Field Content = H
          |__ ZMATERIAL_TAXES
                |__ LINE -> With Identifying Field Content = L
Header and line item have a common field MATNR and VKORG. ZMATERIAL_ALL contains data for sales org GI37, Japan. ZMATERIAL_TAXES contains data for France taxes (sales org GI10).
The structure of my file is the following:
H
MATNR
VKORG
VTWEG
SPART
WERKS
DWERK
VERSG
KTGRM
MTPOS
MTVFP
LADGR
J_3APIND
VMSTA
VMSTD
DISMM
DISPO
DISLS
FHORI
MRPPP
PLIFZ
J_3AMSTATC
TATYP1
TAXKM1
L
MATNR
VKORG
ALAND1
TATYP1
TAXKM1
ALAND2
TATYP2
TAXKM2
In LSMW step 5, I associate ZMATERIAL_ALL structure tax values to BMMH1, because this taxe correspond to the tax for the current sales org defined in the current country:
TATY1          Tax category (sales tax, federal sales tax,...)
                    Source: ZMATERIAL_ALL-TATY1 (Tax category (sales tax, federal sales tax,
                    Rule :   Transfer (MOVE)
                    Code:    BMMH1-TATY1 = ZMATERIAL_ALL-TATY1.
TAXM1         Tax classification material
                    Source: ZMATERIAL_ALL-TAXM1 (Tax classification material)
                    Rule :   Transfer (MOVE)
                    Code:    BMMH1-TAXM1 = ZMATERIAL_ALL-TAXM1.
Then in BMMH2, I associate tax values from ZMATERIAL_TAXES structure:
__END_OF_RECORD__   After Using Conversion Rules
                    Rule :   Default Settings Modified
                    Code:    bmmh2-aland = zmaterial_TAXES-ALAND1.
                             bmmh2-TATY1 = zmaterial_TAXES-TATYP1.
                             bmmh2-TAXM1 = zmaterial_TAXES-TAXKM1.
                             transfer_record.
                             bmmh2-aland = zmaterial_TAXES-ALAND2.
                             bmmh2-TATY2 = zmaterial_TAXES-TATYP2.
                             bmmh2-TAXM2 = zmaterial_TAXES-TAXKM2.
                             transfer_record.
In LSMW step 7, I specify my single file with option "Data for multiple source structures".
In step 8, I assign my file to both ZMATERIAL_ALL and ZMATERIAL_TAXES structures.
In step 9 and 10, I can successfully read and display data. ZMATERIAL_ALL and ZMATERIAL_TAXES structures are well populated.
The conversion is ok, then I run the RMDATIND program to perform the material creation.
The result is "You have not fully maintained the tax classifications"
Any idea what I am missing ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The solution was to implement SAP Note 1730652, and it solved the issue !
This was a standard SAP issue, and not an implementing issue.

LSMW Error - You have not fully maintained the descriptions

Hi Experts,
I was trying to Extend the materials to plant by using Direct input menthod where prog - RMDATIND.
When I execute final step i.e "Start Direct Input Program" I faced with an error " You have not fully maintained the descriptions".
I know this error with regards to Language Key and Description.
I executed Display converted data under structure BMMH5, where Language key is blank.
Kindly guide me why this language key is not captured, and also how to default the Language key as EN.
Thanks nd Regards,

You have not fully maintained the descriptions

I am executing BAPI
'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'
I get the message :
You have not fully maintained the descriptions

Hi,
Check the Material Descriptions whether maintained correctly or not...
You also have to use BAPI_TRANSCATION_COMMIT after using that BAPI
Check the below thread for the sample code.
BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
Hope this would help you.
Good luck

After fully charged, the battery down to zero after 2 days without using it?

Is it normal? As I have fully charged the ipad and stand it for 2 days without using it, The battery drops to zero?

Try a reset:
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds
2. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)

Charging the battery vs. Using the adapter

I'm trying to get a definitive answer about keeping the MacBook Pro connected to the AC adapter while using it as my desktop computer. Is it OK? Not OK? Should the battery be charged to a "full charge " state and then used until prompted to plug in the adapter? Or, can it be connected to the adapter all the time? The MacBook Pro has replaced an iMac that was my primary computer and it's infrequent that I take it from my office to another place. Thanks.

I think if you searched the forums you would find the question has been answered definitively.
The charging circuitry stops charging the battery once the charge level exceeds 95 percent. The battery will not re-charge until the charge level drops below 95 percent. Thus, you can leave the charger connected without concern that the battery will be undergoing continuous discharge and charge cycles that reduce the battery's overall life. However, if you do not periodically calibrate the battery the accuracy of the SMU's measure of the battery's charge level will deteriorate. Thus, you should re-calibrate the battery about once a month.

HT201401 I did'nt fully charge the phone when i used it for the first time. Will cause the batteries lifetime to be shorter than usual?

I got and iphone 5 recently and when i turned it on to use it, the battery was half full so i charged it until it was about 90 percent full. I had this question whether the batterie's lifetime is reduced or not.
I'd be thankful to your answers.

"People" are wrong, and failing to keep up with current battery technology. There are no rules to charging lithium batteries.

How long before you can't charge the battery

How many times can you charge the battery before replacing and where do you get it replaced?

From http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html :
A properly maintained iPad battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 1000 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs.

Correct way to charge the battery

I apologize if I'm repeating a question. In the manual for the Palm Pre Plus, it states that you're able to let the battery charge overnight. My phone only takes about an hour to fully charge from 20 percent. I'm afraid if I let the battery charge any longer than that I run the risk of overcharging and damaging the battery, which was the situation with my previous cell phones with lithium batteries.
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.

Here are a few tips for extending battery life:
Avoid exposing the battery to extreme heat and cold.
For the first 3 charge cycles, fully charge the battery overnight and allow it to fully discharge before recharging (battery conditioning).
Charge and re-condition a battery after an extended idle period.
A Lithium-ion battery may be damaged by extensive overcharging (continuously on a charger for more than 24 hours).
Keep the phone, batteries, and the contact terminals clean. The contacts can easily be cleaned with a pencil eraser.
Use the battery. If possible, avoid letting your battery sit idle for long periods of time.
Use only the phone options and accessories that are really needed.

Do I need to fully charge my Incredible b 4 use?

Should I fully charge my battery before use and then let it drain and recover with a full charge?
Or can I use it and charge it out of the box?

no problem.....forums are the only place to find help these days. the owner manual is 208 pages of some very basic stuff. and most of the customer service reps (vzn and htc) can't answer specific questions....especially if they've never even played around with one. in your package there's a link to download the owners manual. i downloaded it to the phone so i can look up stuff whenever i want. the manual is not that helpful, but i have found a few different/easier ways of doing what i want. i also called the 800 # that's in there to order a hard copy. it's free, and came in a few days. it's like a small text book....lol. it seems like many reps answer every ? with "did you try a hard reset?" many times they don't bother to tell you that if you've spent days customizing the phone....that will all disappear. sometimes a soft reset will fix something, and sometimes just changing a setting will do it, so i hate to see peolpe have to start from scratch to fix something that could have been easier. have fun.

With regard to the Battery...
For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down
