If my laptop battery dies for good, can I still have my laptop work while plugged into the wall?

It's a Toshiba Satellite laptop, made this year, Windows vista, yadda yadda. Look my point is, if my battery gets wasted to a point where it won't charge anymore, will my computer still work plugged into the wall? I can't afford to get another battery. I can't afford a pack of cigarettes.
(Friends suggest  me to buy a new one, how about  the laptop accessories store? www.laptopkeyboardsworld.com

This is the HP Global English forum not theToshiba Support Forum. We support HP PC products. 
The answer to your question about externally powering your notebook PC is yes.
You can safely remove the battery and plug in the power adapter to use it as a desktop PC.

  • My Macbook will not start. I push the power button and nothing happens. It is fully charged. I removed the battery and tried to turn it on while plugged into the wall. Still nothing is happening.

    I have a MacBook. It went to sleep and I could not wake it up. I shut it off by holding the power button so it shut off. Now I can't get it to start at all.

  • How can I make my computer not turn off (sleep mode, or hybernate)? While plugged into the wall.

    I have two dogs, and i am trying to see which one is tearing up my couch while im away by recording via my built in camera and "iMovie". But after a few times trying, I relised that my computer "sleeps" or "hybernates" after only a half an hour. It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never. turned off my screen saver. and still having issues with this. Am i missing somthing?

    Thank you Courcoul, i appericate your help. but if you would have read my whole description, you would have noticed i already tried that. "It is plugged in, and i went to System Prefrences > energy saver > then clicked on power adapter and moved both "computer sleep and display sleep" to never." i also did check the schedule times, and it is off, both wake up times, and sleep times.

    If it's the localised plug part that is broken you don't need to exactly replace it but in its stead use a standard C8 (figure 8) power cord. If you don't have one spare you can always get a really cheap one from most stores that carry electrical cables such as Radio Shack, Walmart etc etc.

  • My iphone wont fully turn off unless plugged into the wall charger! help! it is causing battery drains

    my iphone has been experiencing poor battery life. i have restored it twice now, and nothing seems to be helping. i am wondering if the fact taht the phone wont shut down has something to do with this problem. i cant get it to fully turn off unless it is plugged into the wall! help! i have tried restarting it holding down the hold and home button nothing works.

    Restore as new, does the problem continue?  If so, take it to Apple for evaluation.

  • I just bought an AirPort express. Currently I have a qwest wired router plugged into the back of my computer via an ethernet cable. Can I just unplug the ethernet cable and plug it into the AirPort express, then use the setup utility?

    I just bought an AirPort express. Currently I have a qwest wired router plugged into the back of my computer via an ethernet cable. Can I just unplug the ethernet cable and plug it into the AirPort express, then use the setup utility? Most of the discussions involve an existing wireless network. I don't have one.

    Correct. That's the way to set up the AirPort Express. After connecting your AirPort Express to the router, open AirPort Utility (in /Applications/Utilities) and follow the steps

  • If I use my ipad2 while plugging in the wall charger (charging), will it hurt the battery?

    If I use my ipad2 while plugging in the wall charger (charging), will it hurt the battery?

    No, I do it all of the time. But based on what you are doing, your activities may use more energy than the 10v charging and you still use the battery, just at a slower rate.

  • My macbook battery will not charge. I have tried unplugging and doing an SMC reset but it did not seem to change. I have yet to try another magsafe charger. The charger has a dim green light while plugged into the computer. What are my next steps?

    Hello Everyone,
    This is my first time using the forum. My macbook battery will not charge. I have tried unplugging and doing an SMC reset but it did not seem to change. I have yet to try another magsafe charger. The charger has a dim green light while plugged into the computer. What should my next steps be, besides trying a new charger as well as being the most cost effective?
    Thanks
    -TB

    Hi ..
    The battery may need replacing.
    Check the battery maximum cycle count > Mac notebooks: Determining battery cycle count
    And check the adapter >  Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters

  • Tethering drains battery to empty even when plugged into the wall socket

    Twice yesterday when tethering for a few hours my phone shut down with a flat battery even though it was plugged into a wall socket and the charging indicator was on. Can tethering use more power than the charger can supply? After shutting down the laptop, the phone charged normally.

    Yes, tethering (especially via Bluetooth) can use more power than the charger can provide. That's also true of GPS navigation when connected to a car charger. In both cases, having the iPhone plugged in certainly helps, but those activities will use more power than the 5 Watts provided by the power adapter (2.5 Watts if connected to the computer's USB port), and thus drain the battery despite being connected to a power source.

  • My iPhone 4 will only work when it's plugged into the wall charger. What can I do ?

    Please help.

    Hello DaShiaa,
    I would be concerned too if my iPhone would not power on unless plugged in.  I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • HT4060 I have my iPad plugged into the wall, how come its not charging the battery?

    How come my battery is not charging even though the iPad is plugged in?

    The possible reasons could be....
    1. Bad connector cable
    2. Faulty power adapter/charger
    3. Problem with the wall socket
    4. Faulty dock connector opening
    5. Something impeding the charge getting through - debris in the connector end of the iPad
    6. Faulty iPad/corrupt software
    Try another cable, another power adapter, another wall socket, and go from there. Nobody can just guess what the reason is, start eliminating some of the possible causes and go from there.

  • HT4113 my daughters ipad is still frozen, passcode locked, my ohter daughter decided to change it then forget it, so now what . I have done the whole connect to itunes, it keeps aksing for a password, i dont have it and i cant get into the pad at all. Hel

    My daughters ipad mini is locked out. Dont ask, sister changed password, cnat remember now we are locked out. I have tried the hwole connect to itunes but nothing, it keeps telling u s we need to unlock the ipad. No Dah!!! Thats what I need help with. please?

    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
