Why does my computer say that its plugged in but not charging yet the battery is not reducing
it says plugged in, not charging, 99% (battery life)
but the battery life is not reducing & hasnt for 2 days. it just stays like that.
hp pavillion dv5-2132dx laptop
windows 7 64 bit
i have had a few weird occurences and im not sure what caused it. abruptly my speakers would stop working & my battery life would start reducing. that happened i think 3 times over the course of several months. this last time which was the 3rd is when i changed electrical outlets thinking that maybe that was the problem. and the power & speakers immediately went back to normal. its only been a few days since i changed outlets & everything is working as it should be however as mentioned the battery icon on the taskbar says that its plugged in but not charging & it remains at 99% for the last 2 days.Hi,
First of all, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter, remove the battery, and then hold down the Power button for 30 seconds.
Now, plug in the AC Adapter without the battery inserted, start the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand the entry for Batteries, right click on and the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery and select Uninstall - do not uninstall anything else here. When the uninstall is complete, shut the notebook down, unplug the AC Adapter, re-insert the battery and then start the notebook on just the battery. Windows will automatically reinstall the driver - leave Windows running for a few minutes. Shut down the notebook again. Now plug in the AC Adapter ( with the battery still inserted ) and start the notebook to see if this has helped the charging issue at all.
Regards,

I have an iPhone 4S and never had a problem with syncing it. But suddenly, when I connected my phone to my mac, it says that its in recovery mode, and I need to restore it in order to sync. I've updated both my phone and my itunes, and it didnt work.Help?

that only makes it say its synced, when its not.
No, it does not. It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer. The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

my playlists wont show up on the phone.
Are they selected to sync? Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

What does that have to do with syncing content to the device? FYI, nothing. -

I purchased a movie on Apple TV and cannot find it on other Apple TVs in the house or on my ipad. It says I have no purchases, but I was watching it yesterday. The reception was so bad that I stopped and wanted to view it today. It has a link to other movies I might like based on buying that movie so its strange it says I had no purchases.
Ok problem solved; signing out of iTunes account and signing back in solved it.

Long story short, I downloaded garageband and deleted it in the trash can and emptied it. When i o to the apple store it says that its installed but i cant find it nowhere in the iMac. Please help
Yet another example of why it's a VERY BAD IDEA to do a clean install of Lion unless you are already VERY familiar with how to tweak the Mac OS. There's a reason Apple engineers removed it as an option. To accomplish it you have to erase your disk; not for the faint hearted.
Do you have a backup? PLEASE don't tell us you did this without a robust backup.
You erased the operating machine, so your computer went to the only place it could find one, the Recovery partition. And it's minimal, so it has to download everything in small chunks to reinstall itself. So yeah, it could take 10 hours.
Here's another option. Do you still have the original disks that came with your machine? Put one in and restart from it. You can reinstall your old system much faster. Then go to the Mac App Store and your purchase history and see if you can redownload Lion (I think that still works).
And this time just do yourself a favor and install per Apple's instructions. When the machine starts into Lion, use Setup ***'t (the first thing that fires up) to migrate from your backup.

I want to install apps in my iphone, but it says that the terms and conditions have changed, what I have to do?
Folks, Kit73 on another thread said to do the following:
"While not a very direct solution, I was able to finally accept the terms in a way that seem to register with apple by making a purchase through iTunes on my computer. This forced me through updating my payment information and updating my iTunes software to the latest edition (which I had not yet taken the time to do). After doing both of these, iTunes took me through the terms & conditions on two separate pages, but ultimately allowed me to purchase my song. Once I completed these steps, it fixed the problem on my phone, so now I can update my apps and download new ones without running into that loop."
I just did this and have since been able to update apps etc on my iPhone and iPad. -
HT4623 My computer says that my update has 20 hours till its updated
My computer says that my update has 20 hours till its updated but it isnt working, when i go on to my phone it says that i cant update it on my phone as my icloud has to finish restoring? can someone help me
Thanks ckuan, that has at least got it opening and "looking likely". I had tried that, but perhaps not holding those two buttons for long enough...
It says no SIM card and is very slow. Have reinserted sim a few times and now registering sim. The screen where you have to enter your password to unlock the sim was 'patchy', not clearly showing. (e.g. the circles around the numbers seem to be coloured, not the usual plain white circles around the numbers/letters). Never seen that before.
Battery showing as full. I'll now and upgrade my software
