If you turn your battery backup, does it lose power

I have the newest mac mini and have two external drives and computer, monitor plugged to the UPS batter backup. My apartment is replacing all the electrical outputs in my apartments. I shut everything down and unplugged from the wall. I also turned off the power button on the battery backup. Should I turn it back on? Will it lose battery charge, once I come home and plug the battery back in? Will it have to charge up again before it is usable?

Turn it back on when it has a source of electric power.
Will it lose battery charge, once I come home and plug the battery back in?
Yes, the charge will slowly deplete, if you are not using its battery. That might take a few days depending on the battery's condition.
Will it have to charge up again before it is usable?
Yes.

  • When you turn your macbook on does it...

    Make a weird (excuse my impression) "Reee orr reee rahh rahhh" sound! :P
    The same sound it makes when you put a CD in? Is this a normal sound?

    I assume you mean when you press the "on" button? Easy way to avoid this. Put the Mac to sleep instead of turning it off. Then when you open it up to show it off to your friends, it will flash on and, presumably, not make that sound.
    The sound it's making is likely the hard drive coming to life, which it needs to do if it's been shut down and off for a while.

  • Can you turn your broadband off ?

    Can you turn your broadband off at night or say when you going out, when you turn it back do you receive the same speed,I'm sure I've had this conversation before and I think you can turn it off .Do any of you turn yours off and does it affect your speed I'm pretty sure it's fine to do just want to be sure.

    turning the hub of once a day should cause no problem but multiple restarts in day will cause you connection and speed problems i would not recommend turning it on and off they are designed to run 24/7

  • How often do you charge your battery?

    Do you charge your battery whenever it's at home, or only when it's running low? And does either method affect porfmorance?

    1 - I turn Airplane Mode on when I'm in my office. If I don't the battery is dead before I get to use it at all. Cellphones and iPhones do a constant re-ping that drains the power.
    2 - I have an A/C adapter in my backpack and I plug it in the cafeteria to recharge the battery while watching a tv show or surf the web.

  • How do you turn your outgoing mail server to online vs offline?

    How do you turn your outgoing mail server to online vs offline

    I had this problem too but I fixed it today. I have been unable to send emails with two of my 4 accounts.
    Go to the mail menu preferences.
    Click on account in question.
    Select the outgoing SMTP mail server (the one offline), this has a drop down list, click on the edit server list.
    Click on the advanced button.
    Make sure use default port is checked.
    Make sure SSL is unchecked (unless your provider requires it, mine does not work with it checked).
    Have authentication set to password.
    User name should be your email address for that account.
    Make sure correct password is entered (for some strange reason my password box was blank on this account).
    Push the ok button.
    For me the SSL box was checked and the password was missing. This is strange to me considering I have unchecked the SSL Box on the mail preference advance page. Also, I went through the complete set up account when I first created the account, why was my outgoing server password box empty?
    I hope this helps.

  • I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto.  You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone.  How do you turn your document into a jpeg now.

    I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto.  You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone.  How do you turn your document into a jpeg now?

    If you chose print, you can save as PDF. If you open the saved PDF in preview, you can save as JPEG, GIF, PNG. FYI you can crop in preview.
    Another option is you could use command + shift + 4 to do a screen shot of a specific part of of the screen.

  • When you rebuild your iPhoto library does it erase all your photos

    When you rebuild your iPhoto library does it erase your photos and my iPhoto keeps crashing i was wondering if there was a fix for this?

    When you rebuild your library to be able to use the new version of iPhoto if that is what you are talking about, it will simply rebuild it so that the new version can access the photos that you already have on your computer.  This will not affect the files in a way to delete them.  It simply just makes it so that the new version can be compatible and use the photos that you have on your computer.

  • What can you do when you see a white screen of death when you turn your computer on

    My MacBook Pro had the color wheel rotating when I clicked on a link. It stopped and displayed a white screen. There was no way to force quit or do anything else, so I pressed the power button and turned it off. Since then, I have removed the battery and the cord, replaced them, and turned it back on. It does come on, but it displays the same white screen and nothing else. What is the problem?

    Sounds like your hard drive died and the NVRAM got flushed.
    You'll have to take it in and/or replace the drive and install your EFI firmware from cd to be able to install OS X back onto the machine.
