KEEPING MacBook Air ON CHARGE ALL NIGHT LONG WILL CAUSE ANY HARM?

Hi!
If I keep my MacBook Air 13 inch on charge at night will it cause any harm to my battery?
I use my MacBook Air on battery during day and evening and prefer to charge it when I am in bed.
Just thinking if I leave it on charge for whole night is there any harm?

No, it won't cause any harm.

Sometimes my iPad1 locks up and has the flat battery graphic after charging all night, but will not work until you disconnect the charger, then it reboots and the battery is fully charged and works normally

Sometimes my iPad1 locks up and has the flat battery graphic after charging all night, but will not work until you disconnect the charger, then it reboots and the battery is fully charged and works normally.
It has only happened for the last month or so
Also, sometimes it drops out of apps, ie facebook etc. just like you have hit the stop button

Who replaced the battery? If it wasn't Apple the replacement is probably bad also. Either that, or the logic board is bad.

Keep iPhone 6 Plus Charging All Night?

Hi there,
I got my iPhone 6 Plus two months ago and it's amazing. I had a 4S before for a few months before upgrading. I'd like to know, after doing much research:
1) I've read dozens of sites about how I should not keep it charging all the time. However, there are conflicting reports, so I'm going to ask here in the hopes that somebody can answer clearly. I currently use my iPhone with a JBL Dock (with speakers) as my alarm clock. Why? Because I use an app with sounds to go to sleep (it's very relaxing) and I like using the Wake app as an alarm. But is this detrimental to my iPhone? I've read so many different takes on it.
2) How can I see how many cycles my iPhone battery has been through? And how can I check out the health? I want to confirm that charging it at 99% counts as a cycle or not. The battery is amazing and lasts a long time, but I want to just keep tabs on its degradation, if at all possible.
3) I have read the Apple manual on it, but it isn't clear (at least on the web site). Any more info on the care of my phone would be greatly appreciated.
(I did read in a thread on here just a few hours ago that draining the battery all the way once a month, and then recharging it, is no longer recommended. Since I only did that the day that I got my iPhone, I feel very relived at not having done that again).
Thanks for any information.

So it doesn't degrade the battery at all?
No, it doesn't. If the device is at 80% or greater, then the charger drops to a 'slow charge', and then when at 99-100%, it drops to a 'trickle' charge. That means it's not pushing too much power to the battery so it won't damage it.
Charging cycles by themselves will eventually degrade the battery. But the design of the battery and the charger system minimizes that degradation. While you might technically get more life out of the battery by only charging it when it is less than 100% and never charging it while it's at 99%+, the extension of life would be so minimal as to be almost pointless. Compare that extension (maybe a few days, honestly?) to the convenience of being able to charge it whenever you want and not have to wait until it's fully discharged before charging it, and to me it's an obvious choice.
Add maybe 1% more total life of the battery compared to being able to easily avoid my device running out of power at an inconvenient time? Easy decision.

On belhalf of my fellow volunteers, the answer is, "We'll try our best."
My advice is to try not to treat this like it is a paid service provided by compensated professionals. Ask nicely and one of the nice folks here might take some time out of their weekend to offer advice.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My Mac book will not turn on? It charged all night and has never had a problem?

My MacBook will not turn on? Plugged in or without power cord attached. Charged all night. No previous problems?

Ok. Think I fixed it. I took the battery out for 10 seconds, reinstalled it and now it's up and running.

MacBook Air Car Charger?

Does anyone have a practical solution for a MacBook Air car charger? I'm under the impression that the airline adapter will keep it powered while plugged in but won't charge it.

you can use the Power watt 300 inverter, plugs into cigarette lighter and provides an ac outlet
pretty rugged and has a circuit breaker and cutoff so will not drain source to extinction,
works in fairly narrow range of 12 volt sources, such as car batteries or gel cels
will not work with professional film batteries at higher voltages such as 17 volts
one can go 12 volt battery to female car lighter connector to male car lighter connector on inverter to
apple 45watt ac power adapter to magsafe, find for location work but not practical for airplane,

There is no 500GB iCloud storage plan, 20, 200 or 1000 are the available plans.
What did you actually buy?

Can I leave an iPhone 5c on charge all night?

Hi, I have recently purchased an iPhone 5C and just have a few questions.
Does the phone have to be powered on for the alarm to go off?
If so, can I leave the phone on charge all night so my alarm will go off in the morning without causing any harm to it?

Correction: the alarm will go off if the phone is sleeping. If the phone has been turned off, that is you have done the "Slide to power off", then the phone is inert. Switched off is switched off. No power. The alarm will sound whenever the phone is powered up again. It's easy enough to experiment.
Yes, the iPhone can be left plugged into the charger for a month if you like. It can look after itself.

I cannot use Quicken on my new MacBook Air (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2) Any suggestions? I love Quicken and it takes care of all my financial needs.

You can wait for Quicken to update (supposedly in the works) or you can switch to another application such as Quicken Essentials or another application of which there are several you will find at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
Otherwise you'll need to return your MBA and buy a slightly older model Mac that still runs Snow Leopard. Lion will not run any PPC-only applications such as Qucken or MS Office 2004.
