How long do you need to charge a new iPhone 5 for before trying to turn it on?

I received a new iphone 5 in the post today to replace the ne I had smashed the screen on.
I was told that I would need to charge the phone and then insert my SIM and it would be good to go.
The phone has been on charge since 14:00 and still wont turn on (tried when still on charge and off charge).
Any ideas?
I have held down the power button for 10+ seconds
I have held the power and home button down together for 10+ seconds
I have held the home button, plugged the phone into my Mac, Itunes then acknowledges that a IPhone is present and is up to date but the screen on my actual ipone remains black????

It doesn't matter. You can use it right away. Charge it when you need to.

How long does it take to charge the new iPhone 6

How long does it take to charge the new iPhone 6?

That depends on the level of charge...if it is fully discharged it could take two-three hours. If only partially discharged, an hour. But that is only guessing as it depends heavily on the charge level when you start charging.

How long should I need to charge the new iPad and when?

Hello everyone I just bought the new IPad and till now I didn't charge it how long should I charge it and when ?
Thanks a lot ..

You don't need to charge it before first using it, it should already be at least partially charged. Otherwise this page just says :
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Mine takes between 5.5 and 6 hours to charge from empty up to 100%

Howl long do i have to charge my new iphone 4s ?

how long do i have to charge my new iphone 4s ?

You can charge it up as much as you like. The battery in the iPhone does not have the "memory effect" that old batteries used to have. I usually charge mine untill the small whote battery with the lightning bold through it changes to just a small white battery. The green battery icon in the middle of the screen should show as completly full as well. Again if you don't have enough time to fully charge it, don't worry, it won't harm the battery.
I have done this since the original iPhone and have never had a battery give short life or fail.
Many people top off the battery several times a day.

HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OV...

Question to NOKIA:
HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OVI MAP 3.1 in N97?
On all N97 I know and as you can read here in forum the GPS doesn't work usable in N97 and with MAP 3.1.
I believe that this is a software problem because often I get a GPS signal inhouse and in the wood, but from one second to the other N97 lost the GPS signal. And this in the best weather condition under free sky. Sometimes gps signal works for 15 minutes, then the signal will drop every minute or so.
The current position on map is shift (past) abaout 40-50 meters from the real position, so its unable to use.
The calculated speed is always changing between 0 and the current speed.
I have updated phone to de newes software and firmware also to ne newest maps also has hard reseted and reformatet and the problem ist still the same. If I switch off the option "Maps improvment" (which SENDS DATA TO NOKIA!!!) the the drop outs are fewer. But evreytime the position on maps is shift about 40-50 Meters from right position. Is there a mistake in calculation the position? Also the speed is jumping sometimes from 0 to x and back.
CAN NOKIA TELL US WHEN THIS BUG WILL BE FIXED, AND CAN NOKIA OFFER US A REFUND.
I have payed a lot for N97 and alot for the navigation licence and a lot for accesoires and a lot for the traffic security assistance. So I want a working phone! I dint have payed money for e alpha-stadium phone.
If this is realy the quality of nokia phone, then It is the latest phone I have buyed from nokia.
By the way, the phone has many many many many other bugs as described in this forum.
Really bad work NOKIA! :-(
I was so excited with my N95 and now this mess...
NOKIA please answer us forum members, what you plan to do with the N97 bugs. When we can hope that the bugs are gone? Otherwise I will return my phone and want my money back and I sue for compensation.

I have no word to disagree with you and hoping that Nokia soon will make some press statement or something else to tell us what they do with their flagship, sorry bugship Nokia N97.
Could be a shame recognize errors, but it's worst not to say nothing ant let the bad news of Nokia N97 spread for internet even if they want to sell a Nokia N97 Mini in the near future.
I understand and supose that we will no have no new version till september because we are in the last week and july and the activity in august decrease really high... but at least someone of Nokia could tell something about this problems and if it's possible all the other problems.
Why Nokia Beta Labs Forum there is a direct contact with Nokia workers, and in discussions is relly rare to find?
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mistery.
Today is a gift.

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.

HT5429 How long after you report a problem does it take for the fix to be picked up in maps?

How long after you report a problem does it take for the fix to be picked up in maps? The street I live on is misspelled. It's shown as one word, but it should be two words. Maps cannot find the address when it is spelled correctly, so I have it purposely misspelled it as one word in my contacts, which helps for the most part, however it still tries to place my home on an entirely different street all together. Fortunately this new random street is at least close to where I live. When I used to spell my street correctly with two words, maps would try to send me to the next town over. So it kind of works, as long as I misspell my street, and ignore the fact that it is showing where I live to be a couple of streets down from where I actually live. I live in Connecticut - not in the most populated of areas, but not in the middle of nowhere either. Amazingly enough Google Maps will correctly find my address whether it's spelled with one words or two words. Google Maps also shows my apartment complex, which Apple Maps does not. I really wish Apple would just do a quick pass of the area to fix these issues. I’ve reported the problem several times, months ago. How long will it take for there to be a fix? I keep trying to use the Apple ecosystem, but Google is clearly the better solution for me.

Apple does not do the GIS data for maps. That comes from 3rd party vendors like Tom Tom. I have read it takes some time to update map data. The only thing you can do is report it.
Not to belittle your complaint, but on my end it is Apple that is clearly better. When looking at my house in Google, the satellite photo is more than 4 years old, and the Apple one is much newer. I can tell because of the condition of my home and the neighbor's. They had an above ground pool which was removed 4 years ago and it shows on the Google Map. I had remodeling and roof work done to my home that started 3 years ago and Apple's satellite view showed this work done, which took over a year to complete. I live in the middle of a block in a rural town. Both Apple and Google split the block into 100 parts and put my home close to the beginning of the block instead of where it actually sits. I've reported it to both Google and Apple and no one has changed. Just one of those things. But, keep your chin up, it will get corrected eventually.

HT1476 How long does it take to charge a new ipod touch?

I just bought a new 64gb ipod touch 5th generation, and i have had it plugged in for two hours or so now...So I'm just wondering how long it will take to charge until I can use it...Everytime I unplug it to try and turn it on and set it up, it never does. Do I have to have it charging for hours upon hours to charge it for the first time.
If anyone could help, thatd be great

Apple does not specify any special initial charging time. I would use the iPod without charging if the indicator indicates about 50% or greater. There is no % battery on the iPod. You just have to look at the battery icon in upper right and judge the % battery.

How long do I need to charge my phone for the first time?

How long should I charge it before using? Anyone knows?

Hi Virginia,
It's probably best to just let it charge to 100%, however, if you needed to use it before it got to 100%, it won't hurt anything to do so.
Cheers,

I have new macbook pro and how long do i need to charge 1 time?

can you help me please?

The MagSafe connector that plugs into the Mac has a pilot light that tells you what the charger is up to. If it glows yellow, batteries are a'charging. If green, batteries are charged and it is on standby mode.

How long does it take after switching on an iPhone 4S before you can enter the SIM card PIN?

Hello,
I have question concerning the iPhone 4s. I am currently not sure if my iPhone 4S shows a malfunction or not.
After switching on my iPhone 4S it can take more 45 seconds before the dialog to enter SIM card PIN is displayed. I observe the same duration with two SIM cards from two different providers. It is not fully reproducible. In some care cases the dialog for requesting the SIM card PIN is also displayed after a few seconds. On my iPhone 3GS and my iPad this dialog is always displayed with the same SIM cards already after a few seconds. Could you please let my know how long does it take with your iPhone 4S?
Thank you in advance.
Roland

I had a similar issue activating by HTC DNA. The activation instructions Verizon sends are horrible since they explicitly mention that you do not need to call in to activate your phone. I left my SIM activation running overnight and it just didn't work. I finally called Verizon from my work phone the next day and the agent informed me that you do need to call to activate your SIM card. You will need to have your SIM card ready when you call (to provide the long string of numbers on the back of the card). Hope this helps!

How long do I need to charge my iPhone 4 for on its first charge from new?

I can't find any info in the starter pack on this and I want to make sure I maximise the battery life?

The iPhone battery has no memory effect, you can charge whenever you like. You cannot overcharge, as charging automatically stops when the battery is full. You can just start using your phone or charge it, the choice is yours. Read more here:

Do i have to charge my new iphone for 12 hours before using it?

Hi I am worried about my battery, I was told that i had to charge it for 12 hour in a row before I started using my Iphone 4s is. Is it true? What if i didn't do it?

No. Whoever told you that has no idea what they're talking about. Just start using your phone, charge whenever you like, there is no memory affect & you can't overcharge. Read more here:

What is the advice to turn off laptops based
on?
Unnecessary heat generation.
Even a sleeping laptop generates some heat.
Heat kills batteries.
I actually meant "shut down" or "restart", not "turn off" - sorry. You can have the power off with hibernation or suspend to disk - then what is the advantage of shutting down?
But anyway, how much heat does a sleeping laptop generate? Surely it can't change the battery's temperature very much from room temperature? I doubt very much it is enough heat to be battery killing - particularly compared with MBP operating temperatures! So I think that point isn't true.
I could imagine that leaving a laptop sleeping all the time might reduce battery longevity a little for another reason. If you left it sleeping on battery, then it'd be using the battery, which would wear it out more than not using it. But that must be a slight effect. If you left it plugged in, then the battery would be charged up or be kept near 100% charge (or whatever it is that happens these days), and I suppose that would also have a slight effect on the life of the battery. But surely those effects would be dwarfed by those of actually using the battery in the computer during the day!
And what about the power used to boot the machine? I wonder how that compares to the power used overnight during sleep. I guess sleep uses more power, but I don't have any figures.
