How do you fully drain the battery faster or give me a step by step how to fully drain the battery

please help

Put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

  • How do you measure if a battery is failing faster than normal?

    How can you tell if your battery is failing faster than normal or acceptable?
    I bought 2 batteries with my G4 Powerbook 2 years ago. One now gives me an hour of battery life, and one 1.5 hours. This seems very low considering it's only 1 year of use per battery. Apple Care only asks about how long the battery has been owned... never how much it has been used, number of cycles, amps, etc.
    Battery Information:
    BATTERY #1
    Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 2703
    Remaining Capacity (mAh): 2170
    Amperage (mA): 637
    Voltage (mV): 12522
    Cycle Count: 190
    BATTERY #2:
    Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 3032
    Remaining Capacity (mAh): 3027
    Amperage (mA): 0
    Voltage (mV): 12417
    Cycle Count: 105
    Compare these numbers with my brother's PowerBook G4, bought just a few months after mine:
    My main battery has 209 cycles and a capacity of 3686 mAh. My secondary has only 29 cycles and a capacity of 4400 mAh.
    why does he have 3686 mAh after 209 cycles, and my bettery has 2703 after 190 cycles? Is there some way to tell if this is "inappropriate" loss of power?
    Thanks

    I did do several things wrong (that I only found out about now):
    1. I left the computer plugged into AC
    2. I stored whichever battery was not in use full, rather than half full
    But I did callibrate regularly (if only by necessity).
    I still think 1.5 hours at 2 years is not very good if you are using two batteries (that's really only one year each).
    However, I called AppleCare, and I was told they will only consider a battery if it has been owned for under a year, and has less than one hour of life at best. That still seems extremely low to me (I'd be upset if I had 1 hour at 1 year on my only battery), but such is life. I think the moral of the story is that it would help to give instructions about battery care with the computer, and don't buy an extra battery unless you really need it.

  • Before I upgraded my iPad mini, you could turn off apps to save battery power by double clicking the control button and then holding your finger on the app button until the minus sign appeared.  That doesn't work anymore.  How do you turn off the apps wit

    Now you swipe downward, the app will appear and you delete, keep scolling to the right as in the past.  With the new operating system you also swipe downward to get the search bar to find an app

  • How do you know if the battery is completely dead?

    I'm pretty sure that my iPod Shuffle's battery is completely dead. Even though I charged it longer than the alotted time there's no charge and the indicator light doesn't come on.
    How can I replace the battery?

    If the battery check light shows nothing, and the front status light is similarly dead, then you can assume no power. That could certainly mean a dead battery.
    The battery is not a user-replaceable item. Apple's official solution is provided through the battery replacement program, which you can find discussed and described on the iPod Shuffle Support Page and elsewhere.
    I think you'll find the price delta between that and simply buying a refurb isn't that great. Something else to keep in mind is that that's what you're doing anyway; you don't get your own machine back.
    You can open the Shuffle up and try replacing it yourself, if you like. It will involve some fine work and some soldering, but some have claimed success. There are now sources for the batteries themselves. Guidance for all of that can be found online.

  • How do you take out the quarter sized battery inside the computer?

    How do you take out the quarter sized battery inside the computer?

    Hi,
    We do not know your computer therefore can not say how. In general, open the case, locate it (RTC or CMOS battery), disconnect cables (if any) and pull it out.
    Regards.

  • Does Apple want you to let the battery get low once a month or completely  drained to zero%?

    Does Apple want you to let the battery get low once a month or completely  drained to zero%?

    Of course, if you use the device it is likely that you will have charge cycles in any event.
    On devices with percent charge indicators (iPad, iPhone) I believe that Apple recommends a charge cycle once a month to keep the percent indicator accurate.

  • HT1476 Is it okay if you charge it's battery even if it is not fully drained like 40%?

    Is it okay if you charge it's battery even if it is not fully drained like 40%?

    You can charge it whenever you want and as long as you want, regardless of its state of charge. It is not possible to overcharge it. There are no rules with Lithium batteries.

    my ipod touch 4th generation, is stuck on the apple turn-on screen where you turn it on, but all you see is the apple. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    No problem, if it wasn't for questions there wouldn't be forum, Right?
    So you checked the firewall, and you can receive, that means you have the application,
    Have you ever done a battery pull or sent service books since receiving the device?

  • How do you manually lower the resolution on a hp photosmart 209a-m printer

    I want to print with black ink only and lower the resolution.  How can you manually lower the resolution settings?  Black ink only is no issue but I cannot lower the resolution to below the 600 that it's set for.  Wasting ink!  Planning on getting a non- hp printer due to ink costs.

    Hi,
    From applications, using DRAFT printing or FAST printing will definitely reduce the resolution.
    Regards.

  • How do you cool down the iPod touch

    How and is it bad if you don't?

    Like Kappy said, turn it off for a while, a couple of hours at least. How hot is hot? A little warm... or too hot to handle? If you bake your iPod you can damage the battery and circuits doing permanent damage. Have seen a couple posts where people have reported there iPod's started smoking (as I remember these were heavy gamers that refused to turn off the iPods) and one stated it started on fire; don't remember the circumstance. During prolonged heavy use, like long gaming sessions-- (activities that work the CPU hard) and charging, getting warm is normal. But if it is getting to hot to handle or a heat warning is popping up, you have a problem. Turn it off, allow it to cool down. If keeps reoccurring try resetting or Restoring to backup or Restore to new. If over heating continues contact Apple Genius Bar and have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

  • My iMovie keeps crashing and will not fully load. What do you think is the problem?

    What would be the reason why my iMovie keeps crashing and will not fully load?

    I don't know what version of iMovie you are using, nor the Mac OS X version (that's always helpful when posting questions).
    However, usually when iMovie has the type of problem you mention, it's advisable to firstly trash the preference file. Here's how to go about it for iMovie '11 on Mountain Lion (similar methods apply for other versions):
    Go to your Home folder <your user name>/Library/Preferences (NOT the Library folder at the top level in Macintosh HD). Similar to Lion, on Mountain Lion (10.8.3), the Home Library folder will be hidden (unlike pre-Lion OS X versions). To access it, click and hold down Go in the Finder menu bar, then press and hold down the Option key on the keyboard - the Library folder will appear in the drop down list. Slide the pointer down to Library and, as you release the pointer, the folder will open in Finder. Now you can navigate to the Preferences folder.
    In your user Library/Preferences folder, locate a file named "com.apple.iMovieApp.plist". With iMovie closed, drag this file to the Desktop. When next opened, iMovie will create a fresh preference file with the default settings (this happens in the background as iMovie is loading).
    If iMovie now opens and appears to be working properly, you can change the default settings in the menu item "IMovie > Preferences", as desired. Also, it's now safe to drag the old preference file to the Trash. Trashing the file will not harm any existing Events or Projects.
    Note that these instructions are for iMovie '11 (currently version 9.0.9). For users on earlier versions, the preference file has a different but similar name. For example, for iMovie '09 (that's version 8.0.6) the file is named "com.apple.iMovie8.plist". Earlier versions may or may not have a number in the name, for example, "com.apple.iMovie.plist"
    If this doesn't fix the problem with iMovie crashing, please come back as I have another possible solution to offer.
