Kde 4.6 hibernation/suspend when battery critical level not working

Hello everyone...
I'm using arch (wonderful, perfect, unique, blablabla) for a while now, on my two laptops: dell xps m1530, and asus 1001px.
No problem at all with both...exept for suspend and hibernation (WHICH WORK!!)...
yes suspend and hibernation work if I activate them manually, or after the defined waiting time..
BUT...
if I wait for my computer battery to go below the critical level, and after kde notifies me that my computer is going in hibernation/suspend, it doesn't happen anything...
the screen just turns black and I think kde doesn't even call the pm-suspend/hibernate commands...I can still unlock the screen and continue to work but the battery goes down to 0 and the computers turn off(obviously if I don't hibernate or shut it down before)..ARGH!
that is my problem...any thoughts?
thanks in advance

Hello, I have excellent solution:
In power management settings, change the action when battery level is critical to "do nothing"
Then, in global settings, click "configure notifications"
For "critical battery", check "run command", and enter:
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Hibernate
(I think that's the command, anyway! Maybe check the wiki)

IPhone 6 Battery Usage setting not working.

When I go to my setting and check my Battery Usage setting it states: "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes". I've been using it for hours and I get the same response when I go to the setting. I've turned off my phone multiple times to see if that would resolve it, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Hello.
I have the same problem. iPhone 5, iOS8.0.2, used for a few days - still no usage statistics, only "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes".
I tried restore iPhone (DFU) without restoring backup from iCloud/iTunes, resets, hard-resets, erase all settings, drain battery to 0% and charge to 100% overnight etc. - nothing helps.
I wrote to the Apple about this problem.
Here is the page that you can use to contact with Apple and report a bug - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Please, give the title of "iOS8 battery usage statistics not working" (or something like that), choose the "Bug report" and describe the problem. Perhaps it will make that Apple will eliminate this problem in the next version of iOS. More report - greater chance.

IPhone 6 Battery Usage function not working

Battery Usage feature continues to read; "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes" even though I have now had the phone and used it for one week. Using iPhone 6, 64G, IOS 8.0.0.(no iOS updates have yet been applied)
A few days ago I attempted some suggestions posted by others. One of those was to let the battery drain to zero then fully charge. This had no affect on the Battery Usage feature. Another suggestion that i tried was to close all open apps on phone, then shut down phone and then turn back on. This did not resolve the Battery Usage issue either.
Is apple aware of this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

"Erase messages in the junk mailbox when:..." not working

Option to "Erase messages in the junk mailbox when:..." not working.
I have this set in all accounts to "one day old", but junk mail in the Junk Mailbox older than one day still appears. When I re-select this option under the accounts pref's, junk mail older than one day is properly deleted, but after a day it's back to not deleting anymore!
I've deleted the Mail pref file, etc, but still no luck.
Any ideas?

Well, the Mailbox Behaviors settings are specific for each account, and the On My Mac Junk mailbox isn’t associated with any mail account, so there appears to be no way to specify such setting for that particular mailbox.
The thing is, the whole situation you’re describing doesn’t really make sense. If those messages end up in the On My Mac Junk mailbox, that means you’re manually marking them as junk after they’ve been moved to a custom “On My Mac” mailbox, which makes me believe what’s really happening here is not that many messages aren’t caught by the junk filter. What appears to be happening is that you have custom rules that prevent the junk filter from being able to catch them...

Macbook pro is not getting turn on and further when i press power button the green orange light suddenly changes to green again, moreover battery meter is not working

Hi
Last night my macbook pro gets off automatically when battery gets empty and in the morning it isn't turning on. When i connect the charger, the light on the charger turns green to orange (showing that it is charging) but when i press the power button it suddenly changes to green again. I thought there must not be any connection between the charger light and the power button. And battery meter was running fine.
When it tried this again and again the charger light disappear and battery meter also stops working, when i clearly observe it there is a very dim green light in the charger (not observable in the light) and the laptop is still not showing any change.
please help!

IPhone 4 battery draining + flash not working

I've had my phone since February 2011, and haven't had any problems up until today. The flash no longer works, I've attempted taking pictures and using flashlight apps, but it's not working whatsoever. And yesterday, the battery started draining like crazy out of nowhere. I fully charged it before unplugging for the night, and by the time I woke up it was completely dead. My phone is usually my alarm, so I was lucky to wake on time. I fully charged it tonight after it drained again, and it's already at 78% just a few hours later and no use. My phone has been opened before, but not fiddled around with at all. Any ideas of what could be causing this, I appreciate!

Just an update - this ended up not fixing my problem. The battery is still draining.
On a side note - I actually left my phone charging overnight and the alarm did not go off this morning because the phone was mysteriously shut off during the night. It hasn't done this in 3 years but did the night of the iOS upgrade yesterday.

"Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option not working with all documents

Said option (found under Edit/Preferences, category Documents), which works like an automatic bookmark in that it takes you back to the same place you were at when you last closed a document, is very useful, but apparently doesn't work with *all* documents.
- Does anyone know what determines whether a given document works with this option or not?
- Is this by design or a bug? A matter of PDF format version?
- Is there a way to work around the problem?
I've compared two documents, only one of which works with the option, to determine what the relevant difference may be, and found two suspects (under File/Properties): the PDF version (1.5 in the document that works, 1.4 in the one that doesn't), and 'Fast Web View' ('yes' in the document that works, 'no' in the one that doesn't).
Thanks,
Michael

This seems to be a problem with some PDF files.
Suggested workaround: If the PDF you have allows "Save As", then try save-as to a new file. The "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option should then work as expected (in the new file).

Can I restore my system from install discs when DVD drive is not working?

Can I restore my system from install discs when the DVD drive in my iMac G5 is not working?
There is a disc jammed in the drive and when I try to do an install in Target Firewire mode using a G5 Tower I get an error saying the software cannot be installed on this machine, before I can even select the iMac's drive. I'm using the grey software install discs that came with the iMac.
Is my only option to open up the iMac and get the jammed disc out?
Thanks

You need to set up the FireWire Target Disk mode installation with the iMac as host, so that it runs its own install disk. The G5 tower should be the target, so that you are "borrowing" only its DVD drive.
Shut down the iMac. Put the iMac install disk into the G5 tower, and reboot the G5 tower into TDM by holding down the T key. Connect the FireWire cable and then restart the iMac while holding down the option key. Hopefully the iMac startup manager will see the install disk that is in the tower; if so then select it and boot from there.

Battery/Email not working

Hi, I bought a blackberry a few weeks ago and then this week my battery began dying within 20 minutes of it being charged so I took it back and got a new one but now it is doing the same thing after having it for 3 days. As well this time my alarm does not work, I am not receiving any of my emails and I only sometimes get text messages. If someone could help me or tell me where I could go to get some help that would be great. Thanks!

Are you charging the battery to 100%?
Look at Options > Status and see.

I hv a problem with my iphone when i rester is not working ...

hi . I have a problem with my I phone .16GB model number is A1303 FCC ID;***** IC ID;****... WHEN I RESATE MY IPHONE AFTER THAN IS NOT ON ...IS NOT OPEN ,IS NOT WORKING THANK U .....
<Edited By Host>

okay. I tried the airplane mode and do not disturb on and off thing, resetting the network settings and all settings, restoring the iPhone using iTunes, draining phone using flashlight, reheating the phone using hair dryer and freezing the phone.. the freezing makes my wifi work again but it only last a couple of hours and I didn't want to try it anymore because I'm afraid it may cause another problem to my phone if I keep doing that.

Macbook Air (11 inch) does NOT go in hibernation mode when battery runs out

Hi,
I have a problem with my new Macbook Air. When the battery runs out to 0% it does NOT go into hibernation mode, it just turns itself off and all my data is lost. It never happened to my old 2008 Macbook Air!
I have all updates, the 1.4Ghz Macbook with 4GB RAM upgrade in case that matters. Hope anyone can help? Is there perhaps a setting where I can set at which Percentage (%) the Macbook should go into hibernation? Thanks in advance!

Noone knows a solution? I also still have problems with my Macbook not waking up properly (like everyone else). The main problem is, however, that it SHUTS down when the battery is empty and does not hibernate!
And I can't install the MacBook Air Late 2010 Software Update 2.0 - I always get this message: "MacBook Air (Late 2010) Software Update can’t be installed on this disc. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
- The update also does not show up in Software Update, I had to download it manually!
And I believe its NOT because I have 10.6.6 because I have talked to others who have the same problem under 10.6.5!

Satellite X200-20S don't go into hibernation mode when battery is a 2%

Hi All,
I have just received my brand new and very shiney X200 and gone through the normal procedures of changing the power management settings in VISTA, but I cannot get it to enter the hibernation state automatically. I have configured it such that on a critical battery alarm (at 2%) the laptop should automatically enter Hibernation state saving my data and shutting down.
Unfortunately this doesn't happen and it just dies after the battery level has dropped below the 2% limit. On re- booting (with power) VITSA tells me it wasn't shut down properly. You Don't Say! :-)
I have configured Laptops before using XP and have not had any problems. I know VISTA does have many more options to configure and wonder if I am missing something. I have checked the VISTA help files and I seem to be doing the right thing.
I really would prefer to use hibernation rather than sleep, but just can't get it to do it on a critical battery level.
Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your answers. I think you may have something on the level of the critical alarm. I have lifted it to from 2% to 5% and now the screen goes black, (where as in XP you had a message telling you the system was about to enter hibernation) the disk activity increased and it switched off.
I then connected power on turned it on to be welcomed with the system resume confirmation where as before I didn't get the resume screen.
*So it look like its fixed*, its just thats Vista is a little more clunky and it doesn't appear to actually tell you that it is entering hibernation, the screen just goes black instead! :-)
If everyone else has the same experiance then I guess i can mark this one as fixed.
Let me know what your feedback and understanding on how Vista hibernation should work.
