"mouse battery low" message in gnome. how to disable it.

About two weeks I get this message.
remaining 14.3% of the battery, the mouse ))))
I can charge the batteries in the mouse, or whether they are used up. all the same - 14.3%)))
Perhaps this is a very important message, but it appears every minute, and very annoying me
Tried to look in the documentation of Gnome, how to disable this message, but did not find.
Maybe do somebody know how to disable that great notification?

I saw that topic
run gconf-editor
go to apps > gnome-power-manager>notify>low power <off>
it doesn't help.
Although that hive implicitly refers to the level of battery power mouse.
There is nothing that somehow say obout battery in the one.

Officejet 4630 ink drying message popup. How do disable

Received printer for Christmas. Installed fine. Prints fine.
Issue is pop up message telling me ink is drying to enable duplex operation. The pop up steals the mouse cursor and so effectivally prevents other usage of the computer while printing duplex. I don't need the pop up for every document I print let alone every page of every document.
Where is the option to disable this pop up message.
Thanks
dchoyt

Hello dchoyt.
I understand your concerns. What is your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac? Please follow this HP document on Printer Driver Setting For A Windows Computer.
In this document it will provide step-by-step information on how to disable "Dry Time" and/or how to disable "Duplex" options.
Please inform me if this resolved your issue or not.
Looking forward to hear from you.

Can I turn off mouse battery low notification

I use rechargeable batteries in my Magic Mouse and I use to have no problems but since upgrading (from 10.6.8 to 10.10) I keep getting notifications on screen that my battery is low even if I just charged them. Now, I know it's due to the voltage difference in rechargeables but I would like to just turn off that little pop up that keeps popping up on screen I click on it to hide it but it just keeps coming back and it's annoying.
What's funny is the battery is fully charged and the menu says 0% battery and has said that through 2 weeks of heavy use. If I swap them out for newly charged batteries it still says the batteries are at 0%.

Yes - have checked them all and there's nothing to check or uncheck. This is one of those little things that's annoying and turns out it annoys lots of people given the number of requests for solutions in this forum and non-Apple forums. Apparently this issue has become worse with each OS upgrade. I have tested OS identified problem batteries and found plenty of charge. Besides the interval between when the notifications start and when the batteries fail is quite long.
Many suggestions including Terminal scripts suggest simply turning off Notifications completely but that means loss of something useful.
What is wanted is to allow the notification re declining trackpad, mouse, keyboard battery power is to show itself, let it be clicked close, and to stop popping up all the time.
I did go to a Genius Bar for help (bit hard to demonstrate without the iMac being there) and the Genius didn't think there was such a problem. Having had Geniuses give themselves away in never looking at Apple Support Forums, I came prepared with links to this issue raised on this and other posts. Amazed he decided that maybe there is a problem/issue, could not find anyone to suggest a solution, but suggested I put in a feedback form. I think Apple people look at these even less than they look at the Support Forums, and so that is why I was looking to the Apple User community for a solution.

My ipod nano isnt working after charging after the battery low message came on. What do i do the touch screen wont work. is there a warrenty if I bought it in Dec of this year?

Please help me. After charging my ipod nano the touch screen does not work.
what should I do ?

You have posted in the ipod touch forum.
Perhaps you should post in the ipod Nano forum.
The ipod has a one year warranty.
Have you tried basics form the manual?
Restart. Rest. Restore.

Will an iPhone automatically turn off location services. If it goes below a certain battery power level, and so how you disable this in settings.

I am working with Georgia DOT and we have created an app to track our state vehicles using IPhone 5. My question is: will an iPhone automatically turn off location services? If it goes below a certain battery power level, and if so how do you disable this in settings.

I don't believe that this will happen, however, the entire iPhone will shut down when the iPhone reaches the auto-shutdown power level. There is no way to turn that Off other that connecting the iPhone to power.

Battery Low Error Message

I have Nokia N97 Mini handset and I am facing problem in it with Battery Low error message, when ever I call someone or I receive any call.
Battery works fine in case of standby mode, or even when I do SMS chat for whole day. Even if I listen to music for 10 to 12 hrs, the mobile works fine, no issue of battery low. But during that if I receive any call, then suddenly it displays the battery low error message and the mobile is switched off.
I try to check everything of it. The mobile functions normal and in good condition in following cases -
1. Wife Connectivity
2. Bluetooth data transfer
3. Sms chat for lets say 12 to 14 hrs.
4. Video play for 2 hrs.
5. Music plays for 10 to 12 hrs.
6. Clicking photos or recording Videos.
7. Browsing internet.
But it only falls down in case of Call. Either I receive call or make a call. I don't know how to Rectify this problem. I had once shown to Nokia customer care, but even after that the problem still remains.
I even try factory restore settings and hard format of OS. But still no improvements.
Can anyone help me in this regard? Any information will be useful information to me....
Please help me out, I am facing a lot of troubles with this matter. Looking forward for your suggestions.

Hi all. After searching alot over the internet, and asking friends , colleauges . I conclude that nokia n97mini battery drop is not caused by background running applications or even battery life problem. Its rather a bug in this handset, which suddenly drops out the battery to zero and phone switches off. Even still battery power exists and you can turn on and start messaging or playing music without recharging it from that state.
Nokia should have take care of this problem as alot of other nokia n97mini users are facing same problem. I am one of those who are unable to find solution for this problem. And so I have no other choice other than to sell this set.
Calling is the major functionality for which we buy a phone, and if handset is unable to let us receive call and talk before which it shuts down, so I think such hand set is a **bleep**.

Magic Mouse battery usage

I've come to the conclusion that the problem wt the magic mouse battery usage is not completely that it uses to much power (scrollng seems to kill it), but that it instead warns you way to early about shutoff. When it does shutoff, by just clicking the mouse, it will come back on. If my battery was truly departed, then how could it come back to life, show 5% power, and then operate for literally hours, before going off again. Off course you have to hear that annoying ping, and then have to click on the message stating that your mouse will soon turn off. I love my magic mouse except for this technical glitch. What I would like to do, is write a script, to remove all battery warnings, and possibly make it so the mouse doesn't turn off, until it is truly at 0% power, but I am not very technically oriented.

Hello Apple Discussions,
I am a brand new Magic Trackapd user (since 13th of August 2010), but I already noticed something strange. My battery power dropped from 100% to 89% for less than 4 days of continuous usage. My trackpad has been delivered with Energizer Alkaline batteries.
Here's my battery life story.
Obviously, days between battery changes depend on use. I started with Alkaline batteries (Duracell) when I got the MT (Magic Trackpad) working. Battery life was about a month on the first set. I use the trackpad exclusively (of my three different devices- Magic Trackpad, Wacom tablet, Logitech S530 wireless mouse+keyboard) now, on my desktop MacPro.
I am now trying the Sanyo brand Eneloop batteries to compare. I didn't even notice the battery warnings until the screen flashed a battery low indicator. I also have been using two Eneloop's in my Logitech keyboard, with I think, excellent results (about three months of constant use, and the charge indicator does gradually falls off in that time until blinking a warning).
When I first inserted the rechargeable batteries their charge level said 83%. So I don't know if the life expectancy of the rechargeables will be close to that of alkaline (which said 98% when first started). Certainly it's more economical to use rechargeables. I use the mouse a lot. I see in this thread that results vary from a week or two to months.
Questions:
Does turning off the Trackpad make a big difference compared with leaving it set unused?
Does a rechargeable give way lower life than an alkaline?
What is the comparable battery life between the types of power sources- Alkaline, Eneloop, NIMH, Lithium?
Is there an app for archiving battery life information on the MT? There is one for the laptop and there is history in Profiler, so it seems there could be a way to get the data. Has anyone done it?
Is the low battery indicator (1.0V??) a false indication?

Wireless Keyboard & Magic Mouse - Battery Power Reporting Problem

Problem Description: OS X Bluetooth Manager is constantly reporting that my 2009 Apple Wireless Keyboard has a low battery. For instance, Bluetooth Manager reports my Wireless Keyboard Battery Level is 18%. At the same time Bluetooth Manager reports my Mouse Battery Level is 65%. Because the Keyboard Battery Level is low I am being constantly nagged by the Bluetooth Manager about Battery Level and the possibility of the Keyboard disconnecting.
I decided to swap batteries between the keyboard and mouse as part of a test to see if there is a problem with the way the keyboard or mouse reports available battery power. Sure enough it appears there is a problem with battery power level reporting.
The batteries that were in the Wireless Keyboard, and that are now in the Magic Mous,e are now reported as having a Mouse Battery Level of 65%, compared to a Keyboard Battery Level of 18%. The batteries that were in the Magic Mouse, and that are now in the Wireless Keyboard, are now reported as having a Keyboard Battery Level of 18%, compared to a Mouse Battery Level of 65%.
Conclusion, either the Wireless Keyboard, or the Magic Mouse, or both devices are incorrectly reporting the Battery Power Level. It may also be that the OS X Bluetooth Manager is incorrectly reporting the battery level of one or both devices as well.
This needs Apple to investigate & fix the issue through updates to either the Magic Mouse, 2009 Wireless Keyboard or the OS X Bluetooth Stack.
I am using Duracell NiMH 1.2V 2000MAh "Stay Charged" Batteries (same as the Apple Store battery version)
I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.4 + Apple 2009 Wireless Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0 + Bluetooth 2.0.1. Firmware Update.
So Apple Support Techs... there is the challenge; are you up for investigating and fixing this problem??
Cheers Pete

Thanks for the link David. I used the Community Forums because I've found in the past that Apple Support do monitor them and do pick up problems with Apple gear and pass the info back to their developers. Mostly I used the Community Forums because I just couldn't find the link you provided, so thanks again.
ps Apple & Macintosh are one in the same. My Apple Wireless Keyboard & Apple Magi Mouse are actually performing as per the descriptions in their respective user manuals, especially in terms of how they report battery state through their built in LED lights. So I deduced this as a problem with the Mac-mini Bluetooth Stack, so beleive it is appropriate to this forum.
I'm sure other users have noticed this, or similar problems, so perhaps they will add their experience of this issue to my original post. When I did a search of the Community Forums using the search term "Keyboard OR Mouse AND Battery" I found plenty of similar issues.
Thanks again for the link I'll chase Apple through that channel.

Magic Mouse Battery Level - System Preferences

I put this question up awhile ago but got zero responses...
13" MacBook Pro (mid 2010) with OS X v10.8.3
The Magic Mouse Battery level shows a constant 100% level in System Preferences and then it will suddenly give me the message that Mouse batteries are low. I will then check System Preferences and it will show, what I assume is, the correct battery level of 5%.
Has anyone seen this issue with Mountain Lion? I never had the problem with Snow Leopard. Also, I've tried resetting SMC and PRAM but no change. Any ideas out there?
Thanks in advance,
d

Hello Barry,
Thank you for the reply. I was thinking that I was the only one having the problem since I couldn't find any discussions on it. Perhaps though, I may have not searched the database enough to find anything.
I can't remember having the problem with Snow Leopard; only since I've been using Mountain Lion. I will definitely check out the Might Monitor widget which sounds good!
Do you know where I can get to an Apple page to report this bug? It's not a massive problem but I think it would be fair to report it to Apple anyways.
Thanks again for your help and I look forward to your reply regarding reporting the problem!

Magic Mouse battery only lasts 30 days?

I bought my new 21" iMac back in October and today got a message from Magic Mouse that batteries need to be replaced.
What kind of battery life other folks are getting from MM? Is there anything can be done to increase battery life of MM?

Hi Kenichi Watanabe:
Would seem some Apple reference reported the Magic Mouse batteries should last four months. I've only found items that report the reference (have not located the reference itself). Clips below are cross posted, but if you search the Internet for the terms ["Magic Mouse" four months] (without the brackets), you'll find a whole series of early reviews and comments containing the same reference to four month battery life.
Perhaps inquire directly of Apple Care. Gizmodo's review (http://gizmodo.com/5386202/apple-magic-mouse-review ) relays a claim about the Magic Mouse battery life saying, "it's powered by two AA batteries, which get up to four months of use per charge, according to Apple."
Engadget's preview (link follows) included the same reference, the related headline read, "Apple's Magic Mouse: one button, multitouch gestures, Bluetooth, four-month battery life."
http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/apples-magic-mouse-multitouch-gestures-blueto oth-four-month/
Finding support for Gizmodo's reference ("according to Apple") and Engadget's headline may be a little more difficult. Perhaps I haven't read the press release carefully enough. Clip below, from that Apple press release:
"Apple Introduces Magic Mouse," press release, 20 Oct 2009, Apple.com (http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2009/10/20magicmouse.html : accessed 24 Nov 2009), in part, "Magic Mouse uses Bluetooth wireless capabilities to create a clean, cable-free desk top and its secure wireless connection works from up to 10 meters away. To extend battery performance, Magic Mouse includes an advanced power management system that works with Mac OS® X to automatically switch to low power modes during periods of inactivity. The wireless Magic Mouse is powered by two AA batteries which are included."
Hope this helps

Hearing Aid reports "Right battery low for 35 hrs, 23 mins" even after battery replaced - Starkey Halo

In the iOS hearing aid accessibility it reports that the "right battery low for 35 hrs, 23 mins" ever since my right hearing aid (Starkey Halo) reported a low battery condition. I replaced the battery in both hearing aids, but the message still reports in the accessibility page for hearing aids. The only way I got it to go away was to reboot my iPhone 6.
Just wondering if Starkey is interfacing with "Made for iPhone" properly in this case. My audi said that Starkey recommends rebooting your iPhone daily. I wonder if they just don't know how to deal with integration issues and figure that rebooting will avoid the problems.
Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

I have been using Halo i110's since late June and I have never seen the message you reported. Where exactly do you see it?
The only low battery signal I get is the deep voice in my head that says "battery." Freaked me out the first time I heard it. My audiologist hadn't warned me....
One way to resolve some technical issues is to force a re-pair after an iOS or TruLink upgrade. I would also do that if the firmware in my Halos were upgraded.

Service Battery error message for a battery that looks ok

Hello,
I have a 13 inch Macbook Pro with model number 5,5 and after upgrading my hard drive to a WD scorpio black 750GB and also adding 8 GB of Kingston memory I get a Service Battery error message. My OS is 10.6.8. The strange is that my battery is in a fairly good condition. I did check with coconut battery and it looks ok. I also add a print screen.
Does anyone knows how can I remove this error message ?
Do I have to replace my battery ?

Service battery means replace battery as soon as possible.
Reset SMC and see whether it changes the notification.

Best.

IPhone ~needs~ an AUDIBLE Battery-low warning during calls!!!

Okay, I've been needing to do this for quite some time. I'm actually surprised to find no one else has made this complaint yet (that I've been able to find).
I am absolutely sick and tired of my iPhone dying in the middle of a call because I was not alerted to the battery's status once it got to 20% or lower.
Does it make sense to anyone else that this happens? You're on a call, to your knowledge the battery was full or reasonably full before but now that you're talking you can't see the screen and you're not thinking about it so you keep talking. A while later your call drops and as you start to curse AT&T once again for the miserable coverage & constantly dropping calls you see that it's not them after all, but your phone's dead battery.
Come on Apple.... How hard can it possibly be to program in an AUDIBLE-IN-CALL alert that tells you that your battery is about to die. This is so basic and simple that I'm finding it hard to believe that this hasn't been addressed before now!!! Don't get me wrong, I love my iPhone. I will never need another phone as long as there is some variation of the iPhone in existence. But seriously, this is something that should have been dealt with AGES AGO.
I don't feel like I should even have to be saying this, but when you are in a call, your phone is against your ear, or if you use a headset of some kind, your phone is likely in a pocket. A Battery-Low warning that comes up on the screen is NOT going to be visible. There NEEDS to be a way for the iPhone to notify the user of a Battery-Low status that ACTUALLY GETS THEIR ATTENTION, not simply to remind them AFTER they've got it charging again that, yes, now that the phone is charging and back up from 0%, that the battery is still in-fact below 20%....
I really am a reasonably devoted Apple fan, but I am highly annoyed by this, because while I have had my iPhone 3G since the week they were released, whenever the above problem would happen to me I just assumed it would only be a matter of time before it got ironed out. I mean, come on, Apple's a smart company, and this is such a basic thing that lesser phones have had this programmed into their OS's going back to some of the very first cellular phones in existence, I know, I've owned a few.
Apple, Please. Fix this.
Thank you in advance.

I just posted the same thing and it's now 2014!!!! I have endured this problem since my iphone 3gs.
And the option is still the same. Give feedback to Apple directly at www.apple.com/feedback.
Nothing anyone can do here, other than recommend that you be more aware of your battery life. Keep it connected to a power source when not in use, or if one is readily available when you are using it. I have a charger for home, one for my car, and one at work. I never see the battery low indicators, except in very rare cases. It's very rare for my battery to be below 50%.

Facing Strange Problem in DIR HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR? (through parent script/ movie?)

Summary : HARD QUESTION : In the DIR file, the game runs well, right click = no effect. Coz I'm not making right click scripts. BUT in EXE file, right click = ERROR.
Explanation :
In the Adobe Director screen, this DIR file game is worked 100%.
I tested right click EVERYWHERE... NOTHING HAPPENS.
Because I don't make any programming with "on rightmouseup" or "on rightmousedown" command.
THEN, I published it into EXE...
I tested right click EVERYWHERE...I hoped the result will be the same as DIR tests....
WHEN I RIGHT CLICK IN THE AREA THAT'S GIVEN ON EXITFRAME ME, IT SHOWS ERROR, CHANGING PICTURES.....
this does not happened in the DIR file...
I didn't make a runmode program or anything else.... This is awkward... mystery for me...
WHY THERE'S A DIFFERENCE IN DIR and EXE... it should be exactly the same result.
I have used Director for years.... This is really strange for me...
>>>>>>>>HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR?
THIS ONE is useless.... It doesn't prevent the rightmouse click,...
      on rightmouseup me
             nothing
     end
      on rightmousedown me
             nothing
     end

Dear Adobe Forums friends
I need your help and guide through this problem...
In the game's dir file that is run on the DIRECTOR softwawre,
the game runs perfectly, I can do LEFT CLICKS (coz I programmed the script)
and when I do RIGHT CLICKS = there are no effect ( coz I don't do script for it)
LATER THIS GAME TURNED INTO EXE.
It supposed to run like the dir file as ABOVE. BUT STRANGELY, WHEN
I DO RIGHT CLICKS, it turns Error and showing as the picture attachment.
The right clicks that goes error are above the picture of numeric button only. (in DIR file
this run normal). I looked into the script behind the numeric button picture, there are only "on exitframe me", there are no script I made inside the "on exitframe me" that is triggering RIGHT CLICKS.
1. I wonder why there are differences in DIR and EXE effect
2. Why right click? Left click effects are all normal.
3. IS THERE ANY WAY TO DISABLE ALL RIGHT CLICKs since the beginning of EXE. So the game will be run normal. I don't need right clicks anyway, but whenever people do right click there will be ERROR.??
4. Is there any way to STOP THE MESSSAGE BOX TO APPEAR IN FRONT OF THE GAME? (I hate the Dirrector Error Message Box), or auto press OK.
NB: this game uses Buddy API Xtras, File IO Xtras.
Thx

Bluetooth Mighty Mouse battery consumption

I have a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and have had it for 3 months (Christmas present). Last week, I noticed one bar had disappeared in the mouse battery life window in System Prefs - "wow" I thought "only lost 20% charge in just under 3 months".
However, yesterday, I got a "Low Battery" warning and noticed that only two bars were remaining. A couple of hours later I got a "Critical battery level" warning and only one bar remaining.
I don't use my mouse all that much - probably at most 6 hours per day (in short-ish intervals, turning it off in between) and I can't remember accidentally leaving it on. I'm using it with the two original AA batteries it shipped with.
Is this normal battery consumption? I find it strange that from "Low battery" to "critical battery" would be a couple of hours and that it would suddenly lose almost 50% of its charge in a week.
Do these mice eat AA batteries? Is it a good idea to get some rechargeables to use instead?
Cheers for the help

Hello thomasp:
In answer to your question, the battery life of a wireless mouse is mostly dependent on usage. When not in use, the wireless devices go to a very low power mode. IMHO, it is a waste of time to turn mice/KBs off. I would postulate that your experience is about normal.
I use rechargeable batteries (2500 mAh) in all my wireless devices. They do not last quite as long as the Lithium batteries - they have a lower voltage. However, I use an Energizer recharger that recharges batteries in 15 minutes - very little waiting time. In addition to being less expensive in the long run, rechargeable batteries are environmentally friendly! I bought a bunch of them on eBay. By the by, the rechargeables lose some charge every day - even if they are not in use.
