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.

    How long have you been a Verizon customer?

    Hi there!
    According to /var/log/pacman.log, I've got Arch installed more than a year now (my laptop's age).
    [04/23/07 10:59] synchronizing package lists
    Since then, I never had to reinstall the system.
    I started using Fluxbox, then switched to Gnome, and I'm currently using XFCE. Since I'm curious about KDE4, I'll be switching to it when 4.1 hits the repos.
    Concerning the kernel upgrades, I custom compile my own, and never had troubles what so ever.
    I've got tree other machines running Arch. One headless server, and two workstations. All in the same situation (installed once, and updated once in a while).
    You can't beat rolling release!

  • Hotmail works!? how long have we been able to access it from safari?

    Just organising a few things on my iPhone, Syncing a few photos and tiding a few things up. I synced my latest bookmark bar from my laptop and Hotmail was on it.
    I tried to access the hotmail website from my synced Hotmail bookmark bar on my iPhone for a laugh to see if I could log on because I could never do this before and had signed up to izymail last November so that I could link up Hotmail to my Mail App on my iPhone.
    Anyway, I logged on and Hotmail works fine now from my iPhone Safari web browser. How long has anyone been able to do this?
    It'll mean that i'll be able to check my email when I have no Wi-Fi signal or EDGE which was always a nightmare when I was out and about and needed to check email.

    In the past, when i've tried to log onto Hotmail through Safari on my iPhone - it would load after I entered my password and then just refresh the same page. Alot of users on the forum were complaining about the same problem back in November/December 2007.
    I haven't read any articles on Hotmail for months now appart from people signing up to izymail.
    So you think I should have always been able to access my free Hotmail account using Safari as long as I had W-Fi or EDGE Signal?

  • How long can you share a folio file for and how many people simultaneously

    Hi There,
    Questions per above title, can you share a folio file via the content viewer for an unlimited time?  How many people could you share it with simultaneously?
    As well I am trying to understand do you have to pay for DPS (and if so can it just be the single version) to be able to share a .folio file through the content viewer.  Can you just have in design 5.5+.
    In addition, if the .folio file is set up for Ipad distribution when shared will it be formatted and fully usable/interactive through the content viewer by the person you are showing it to on the ipad?
    Any help is appreciated.

    You do not need to pay to share a folio file via the content viewer.
    I'm not aware of any limits on how long a folio can be shared to, or how many e-mails a folio can be shared to.
    And yes, on the interactivity question.

  • Have you been waiting since december for a phone l...

    I was. I was making small talk with the engineer when he finally arrived today (ordered on 15th December)
    'you guys must be busy at the moment'
    'no, not really, they haven't sent us any provisioning requests since december'
    So, the "we're really busy because of the weather" isn't exactly honest.

    Hi there,
    The engineers don't have that information. That engineer means he hasn't had one in HIS queue for ages.
    There have been large engineer backlogs, my friend ordered their line around the same time and got swithced on on 12th Jan.

  • Hi. I have an iPhone 4 and no data plan.  When I'm not connected to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but later when I do connect to wifi, I get them telling me they were sent earlier. I don't remember how long this has been happening.  Any Help?

    Hi. I have an iPhone 4 with iOS7 and no data plan. When I am not connect to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but then when I do connect to wifi I get the messages telling me they were sent earlier.  Is there any thing I can do to fix it?  I don't remember how long this has been happening but it is very frustrating. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!!!

    If you don't have a cellular data plan, then why are you expecting that you will have an active internet connection unless you are connected to wi-fi?
    iMessages require either wi-fi or a cellular data connection.

  • Freaking OUT!! I have a desktop (IMac) and my IPhoto library is gone! Events gone, albums gone, faces gone!!! I can't even find the folder for IPhoto Library under Pictures under my hardrive. I have no idea how long it's been this way!

    Ok so here's what has happened. I got on the Mac to open IPhoto. It opened, but no files PERIOD! No albums, events, photos, faces. They were all empty. I had TONS of albums and photos. I have no clue how long it's been this way, probably a couple of weeks since I've been on it. Ac couple of things come to mind that might have caused or had something to do with...IPhone 4 had to be restored and a back-up and upgrade occurred. Also, I deleted files off my camera while connected. Not sure the culprit, but VERY UPSET! I have never set up Time Machine and have no other back up. I downloaded and purchased File Salvage but I have to get an external hard drive before it will do it. I put the application install CD in last night thinking that if I reinstalled it would help but then I got scared and shut Mac down half way through. I couldn't even find the file IPhoto Library. When I open IPhoto it say IPhoto 9 but when I "get more info" it says IPhoto 8.1.2 or something like that. Please HELP!!

    Try an All Images Search:
    In the Finder:
    Command - f
    Kind: Images
    Size: Greater than 300kb (This is to avoid all the thumbnails, icons and so on.)
    Set it to search the Mac.
    As to why? The most likely answer is user error, I'm afriad. It does point up the importantce of always having a back up.
    Regards

  • Have you been getting timeouts and other weird connection issues lately?

    Internet connection has become a bit wonky as of late, have you been experiencing some or all of the following symptons?
    1) Most internet speed test sites just stop before completing as if they have timed out (i.e. speedtest.net).
    2) Sites will start loading quickly but then sometimes randomly stop and have to be manually refreshed.
    3) Downloads will randomly stop downloading for some moments before resuming (particularly from Steam)
    4) Tracert to some websites that were causing issues show timeouts on peering with Alter.net servers.
    Looks like there are some issues between Verizon and Alter.net (formerly MCI, now Verizon owned) in NY.... Any word on when we can expect a resolution? This is quite frustrating as it affects a good amount of traffic.

    I'm a little further east than you out here on Long Island, Touyats, but I've seen none of the issues you or the Original Poster here are experiencing.
    Assuming you're having the problems on a device connected to your router by Ethernet cable (WiFi opens up an entire range of other possible problems) you might try getting your router assigned a new WAN IP address. 
    If you want to give that a try, see this post for the steps involved:

  • HT1390 How long can you keep a movie rental, once it's downloaded? Do u need wifi to watch it?

    How long can you keep a movie rental, once it's downloaded? Do u need wifi to watch it?

    As long as it's been fully downloaded then you shouldn't need to be online in order to watch it.
    As to how long you have to watch it, from here :
    You have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and 24 hours (in the US) or 48 hours (elsewhere) after you've started viewing to finish it. Once the rental period expires, the movie will disappear from your iTunes library.

  • Is there a timer app for tracking how long someone has been logged on?

    I want to limit my child's total screen time on a daily basis and display how long he has been logged on.  This is different from time limits, which set the start and end time of the day.

    Aaaah ... I found that setting now.  Thank you.
    This may do the trick.
    I suspect the app developer is a non-English speaker. The support page is on Japanese and there is no reference to the calendar functionality in the store description. It looked like an Evernote-only add-in. I never would have found it without you. Thanks again.

  • 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.
