Laptop says, "plugged in, charging" but it's not charging

I have a Satellite T134-1330 and it is a year and a half old. I was traveling, so my computer was stashed away for three weeks. When I got back, it was dead, but turned on when I plugged it in. Then I noticed later that it the battery was at 22% and not charging any more, yet it says it is.  I tried taking it out and putting it back in, and I also tried draining the battery and then charging it. Now it just says, "0% remaining (plugged in, charging)" I can't figure it out! I googled it and found someone with the same problem. Could the first response be the solution? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100703035214AA9YPb0 Thanks

I've been having problems with the laptop being plugged in but then shutting down without warning from low battery. Just today my laptop shut off without warning so I started really paying attention to it, and I noticed that the battery icon would say "Plugged in, charging" but the charge was actually decreasing.  It got down to 8% and I was frantically googling for a solution, because it was losing charge even though plugged in, when I found your post, Peter.  I followed the steps and now it is charging and is up to 87%. Remains to be seen if this is a permanent solution, but it saved me a lot of aggravation today!   I have dozens of eBay auctions going right now and don't want to be without my laptop.  Thanks, and please reply if you have any more information about this issue with the Satellite L645D laptops.

  • I have downloaded the latest Adobe Flash - it says successful but will not work. It says to 'Manage Plug-ins but the Plug-in says it is enabled but it will not work at all. I have tried disabling and then enabling - no success.

    There's two different versions of Flash. The ActiveX version for IE, and the Plugin version for other browsers. Did you install the correct version? This forum's software doesn't thing that Flash is installed for Firefox or the Plugin is disabled.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

    Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • Anyone having issues syncing iPhone with Microsoft Outlook 2007?  iTunes says it is syncing but it will not update calendar or contacts.  It just stopped working a few weeks ago.

    Anyone having issues syncing iPhone 3GS with Microsoft Outlook 2007?  iTunes says it is syncing but it will not update calendar or contacts.  It just stopped working a few weeks ago.

    I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only person struggling with exact issue.  I've rebooted, upgraded, re-installed, pulled all my hair out as nothing works.
    The biggest dissapointment with this thread is that nobody seems to have responded with a solution.
    And yes I've managed to pull together enough intellegence to tick the box "sync to outlook" in iTunes - still nothing man.
    Definately does not sync from phone to PC and is very hit and miss on PC to Phone.  In other words now running 2 seperate calendars - Not helpful Jan.

  • HT1349 my laptop got corrupted and recovered but i am not able to connect my iphone to my laptop

    my laptop got corrupted and recovered but i am not able to connect my iphone to my laptop. Pls help me to recovery my iphone.

    I had the same problem with my wife's iPhone 4, go to settings, network an see if 3G is activated in your phone, also check if data is activated, if this don't work, than the problem is not in the phone but with the carrier.
    Your phone may show the 3G or the Edge network icon next to the signal bar, but 3G and Edge may not be really activated for your phone in your carrier network, even if you have a data plan, sometimes their activation department kind of forget to activate the full service in their network, it already happen to us several times.
    Call your carrier and confirm if they really activated the 3G or Edge data in your phone in their network according to your data plan . They may need your phone's EMEI and ICCID numbers, you will find it at settings, info
    Hope that helps

  • Cloud manager says "up to date" but it's not

    I just signed up for the cloud and intalled already InDesign. Now I wanted to install Photoshop but the App Manager says "Up to date" -BUT IT'S NOT!
    I just have CS5 and it wasn't a problem with the inDesign app... So what can I do?

    Ok.
    In case of Mac please go to Utilities--> Adobe Installers--> search for Photoshop uninstaller and run it.
    This should fix the situation for you.
    If this do not resolve the issue then you need to consider doing a system cleaner using Cs Cleaner tool from http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    Hello Mistaman
    Check your purchase history to download previous purchases. Also you can check on your computer in your iTunes folder to see if the purchase has been downloaded. If you find it there you should be able to double click it and it should open in iTunes.
