i have the same problem, only mine doesn't have enough power to even turn on again, so i don't know about your case, but i'm pretty sure if it just says charging for that long it isn't even doing it. I left mine on for a night and a half then watched 20 minutes of video and now can't do anything with it. Someone figure this out and help us both.

Tecra S3: battery fully discharged if it's off for one week

I´ve got a Tecra S3:
Intel® Centrino? Mobiltechnologie Intel® Pentium® M Prozessor 760
XP Pro/ 1024 DDR2/ 80GB/ 15.0" TFT/ DVD-Super-Multi(DL)/ Wi-Fi
Mostly I work with ac power. Only sometimes I need the battery.
But when I use the battery, discharge it fully.
After that the battery is charged over night.
When my S3 is off for one week,
my battery is fully discharged and the S3 needs ac power.
Is that normal?
Why is my battery fully discharged
if the S3 is off for only one week.

Hi
The fact is that battery looses the energy also if the notebook is disabled.
Im not sure about the time and how long should it takes.
The same thing happens on my old Satellite A50.
I thing it depends from the battery performance and how old the battery is.

IPad battery fully discharged and now will not take a new charge

I've had this baby plugged in for 6 hours and it won't even charge to 10%. I am using an Apple supplied cord and charger.

Plug the USB cable into your computer. The iPad will say "Not Charging", however, it will charge but slowly.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
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.

Battery FULLY discharged overnight

Good Morning everyone! yesterday I fully charged my Ipad Mini Retina 16 GB IOS 7.1.2 , I used it for some minutes and I put in in standby mode for the night. This morning I woke up and the battery was FULLY discharged, I had to recconnect my ipad to the charger and now it seems that it is charging properly.
What is happened? do I have to get worried? because my Ipad is still under the international warranty, is it better if I check with an Apple Store? Somebody else got the same problem? how did you solve it?
thanks for your answers and feedbacks,
Stefano

Push email has always used a lot of battery as it trys to keep an IP connection open to the email server. Using Chattermail (on a Palm Treo) the Push settings had several optimizations that could be used to lessen the update frequency, not try to push when the signal was weak, etc. Even with those settings enabled, I had to recharge that (extended) battery every 36 hours or so.

Battery fully discharging while idle and plugged-in ...

I've had a new "standard" mid-2011 MBA 13-inch, 128GB, since Monday (three days of use), and I'm encountering an issue where I can't seem to get any AC (chargers) to work reliably. I was using the system today, for example, until about noon, with the AC plugged-in, the battery fully-charged, and apparently working. I had a conference call in another room, and when I came back two hours later, the system had shut itself off, and no light on the AC cord. System would not even power on. I unplugged everything, moved the AC cord to another outlet (first one is perfectly fine!), plugged it in, and the system started up, but the battery showed 2% charge - after two hours of inactivity while plugged-in. Sounds like something is seriously wrong either with this new MBA/or accessories, or a bug in Lion. I did migrate from an older MBA, so I wonder if I've migrated some setting that is causing problems ... Any ideas are appreciated! Michael

Yes, that's normal.
Yes.

Battery fully discharged and won't RECHARGE

I used my battery until it auto-shutoff. I was unable to recharge the laptop for 3 days due to a power outage at my house. Now the battery will not be recognized by the Macbook and will not charge. I have already tried to "reset" the system and have tried the solutions given by Apple.com. What should I do to get the battery to charge?

The Mac should shut down to protect the battery, and even after a prolonged discharge period should be recoverable.
Physically remove the battery from the Mac in order to "make and break" the connections, which will clean the terminals, as well as totally disconnecting it from it's host. Then replace and try recharging it once more.
Good luck.

MBP battery fully discharging with the lid shut down overnight

I have noticed that even with the lid shut down the battery drains out in a few hours on a full charge which was not the case a few days ago. Secondly my MBP will not go into a sleep mode when i try to do so thru the remote, the screen goes blank for a few second then back again.
I did the last battery update.
Energy saver is on default setting.
No third party application is installed to do scheduled tasking.

Hi
I have notices the following in my MBP too, thanks for the info. So now I have bigger issue's
A. battery drain out in sleep mode.
B. MBP not restoring itself but restarting.
After the battery update the safe sleep mode seems to have been disabled, on a complete battery drain out the MBP restarts dose not restore itself to stage when the lid was shut down as its supposed to do so from the contents of RAM image in the file /private var vm sleep-image
I have noticed a lot of users suggesting to change the hibernation-mode to 0 from 3 and nvramrc to false from true thru terminal command. What are the consequence of the same with regards to the links to it and is it good to go about changing the default settings?
One pays a good amount for a 15"MBP not to forget the add on's for stability, durability and usability. I give the MBP 100 in 100 in durability & usability, but its lacking in stability too many issues with regards to hardware or software.

Ipod Sad Icon Symbol - Fully Discharged - No charging...

I left my 60Gb ipod in my office drawer during the weekend. On Monday when I tried to turn it on it showed the low battery symbol (althought it was fully charged on Friday) and when I plugged it into the USB cable the ipod Sad Icon appeared.
I tried to reset the ipod and the monochromatic apple symbol appeared showing it was fully discharged.
I left it charging for all night long, but the problem persists.
Any idea?

Can anybody help with this? I do not think it's a battery problem as it is actually being charged. If anything it's a software problem?...

Help!!What can I do with this fully discharged iPod Nano???

I know it has this problem because it's fully discharged, but all the technical articles I can find just can't fix it.
When I first connect it to my windows, it shows a fully discharged icon. After a few minutes, I disconnected it from the PC and tried to turn it on. Then I connect it to my windows again, and it shows "use iTunes to restore", then shows " do not disconnect", then automatically switch to "Ok to disconnect"!!! I don't know what to do now, since it always automatically turn to "ok to disconnect", I cannot start charging my iPod Nano. What can I do right now???? Please help me!! Since the first time it showed the fully discharged icon, I think there must be someway to charge it a little bit and force it work again, instead of changing a new battery.

Try the Five R's.

Since IOS 4.3.3 My Ipod Touch 4th Gen 64GB fully discharges on standby in less than 6hrs with no apps running. How can I fix it?

I've followed all the suggestions for saving the battery life but the battery still discharges very quickly. The only way I can stop it discharging is by turning the ipod off, which sort of defeats the object!
It's been suggested that I totally reset the ipod as new and then set it up again from scratch. Does anyone now how likely this is to help, as it will take rather a long time?

Looks like good news!
I finally bit the bullet and did a reset as new.
It was a total pain as you can imagine, but it wasn't the end of the world to go through i-tunes reselecting the apps etc to sink (it was actually a pretty useful exercise because my ipod was full of apps I didn't really use!).
Anyway, it's been off the charger now for nearly five hours and I've been using it for bits and pieces like, the calculator, internet search over wifi, map viewing etc. and the battery is showing 97%!!! All setting are as per the default start up. I haven't changed brightness or anything like that.
Interestingly, now when it goes into standby, the router shows that the wifi link has dropped. When I then wake it again the link restarts after a few miliseconds. This didn't used to happen before.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed and will see how it goes over the weekend and report back on Monday!

After a year of no use and a fully discharged battery, my MacBook Pro refuses to accept the administrator name and the password. How can I reset these?

After a year of no use and a resulting fully discharged battery, the MacBook Pro refuses to recognize the administrator name and password (both). It has system OS X 10.6 which can not be upgraded without the information. How can I reset or reistall the administrator name and password?

Thanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

Ipod battery discharges quickly

Ok... I've been through all the FAQ's, suggestions, tips for long battery life, and I still am having my problem.
I began having problems with the battery not holding a charge for more than 12 hours (turned off) and discharging quite quickly (from a full charge, it would be dead in 15 minutes of audio only with no backlight).
Since my Ipod is over a year old and I didn't purchase a service plan (received as a gift), I replaced the battery from a 3rd party vendor. It's working again, however the battery still discharges faster than it's supposed to (about 45 minutes of music alone).
I am wondering if anyone has experienced anything like this, what the solution could have been, and if one of a few situations could be happening:
1. Could there be a condition that would cause some sort of short that would discharge the battery while the unit still performs as expected (menus, plays audio and video fine, etc.)?
2. Is there something that could actually be reading the battery as being dead when it's not?
3. Could it simply be that the battery I purchased is junk and I need to get a new one?

This doesnt answer your problem but i had the same problem with one of my ipods, i took it to pcworld, and all of their technicians had a look of it and none of them could fix it. I then got a new ipod, an the same problem.Aparently it was a software problem or a problem with my computer. Anyway i got a new ipod as mines was still under warranty and i used the new ipod only on my laptop, and havent had the problem since.

My ipods battery keeps saying its fully charged but its not and i tried reseting it and the problem still persits

It may just be giving you false battery info. Unless it actually dies prematurely, Its just a software error. I would recommend restoring. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
