How long do i have to charge my ipad air for the first time?

For how long do i have to charge my new i-pad air the first time after unpacking it??

Typically you shouldn't have to charge it. It should come with enough of a charge to use it right out of the box. But you will need to charge it when the battery gets low and you can do that at your convenience....and you can use the iPad while the battery is charging.

  • How many hours do I have to charge my iphone 5 for the first time?

    i just bought an iphone 5 and I want to know how many hours do i have to charge it in the first charge. Thanks you very much for all your answers.

    You don't need to charge it unless you want to or it needs it.  You can and should charge as often and as long as possible... deep discharges are hard on lithium batteries.  Normal mobile use will result in the one charge cycle/month that Apple recommends.

    how long do I have to charge my ipad for the first time?

    Most iPad come wit a 60-70% charge. You can use it immediately and then charge at your convenience.
    FYI
    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.

    Just charge it to 100%.
    Use it on the charger when possible. Recharge when the battery is around 50% when possible. Avoid to let the battery go down below 20%.

  • I didnt charge my iphone 5 for the recommended time,what should i do?

    I charged my iphone 5 for the first time for 3 hours and didnt charge for the 8hour which is the recommended time. My battery is now 100% and im scared that there will be a problem with my battery. What should i do?

    Don't worry about it, Apple has desgined the charging system of the iPhone to handle many kinds of charging events.
    I leave my phone on the charger every night so that it will always be ready to last me all day here in Austria. It's not technically "charging" for the 8 hours I sleep, it just means that the phone is running on external power.
    Plus, no iPhone will ever take 8 hours to charge, 3 hours is the max it will ever take to recharge.
    So, have no worries, and enjoy your new iPhone!

  • Satellites L650D: how long do i leave it on charge for the first time?

    just recently bought this computer Toshiba Satellite series L650D and was wondering how long do i leave it on charge for the first time on power????
    Please help

    Hello
    If the battery is fully charged, the battery LED will switch the color. Depending on your notebook it will switch from orange to white for example. After this the battery is fully charged.
    The charging time is also depending on the battery, AC/DC adaptor and if the notebook is truned on or off. So nobody can exactly say how long it takes but the battery LED will it show you. :)

    From the above link...
    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).
