Omni 10 Windows 8.1 won't always charge

Recently my Omni 10 has been intemittently refusing to begin charging when the power adaptor is connected. When this occurs, the battery must completely drain before it will begin charging. The charging brick is not getting hot. I tried disabling the power option for sleeping the USB controller, and this had no effect either. All drivers and BIOS are updated, and no applications have been loaded recently that might be causing the issue.
Short of a full factory reset, which is a real PITA, any ideas of what to try next?

Hey @Xyth,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you're having som issues with your Omni 10 charging.
Besides a system restore a system recovery is the only thing I can suggest for this problem. If that fails it would be best to contact HP phone support. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.

Maybe the Nano you got is defective. Have it replaced.

aand I have had my ipod for like 1 year

IPod touch isn't detected by computer, won't even charge.

I'm on windows 7, and when I try to plug in my iPod touch it won't come up in Computer or in iTunes. I've reinstalled iTunes, reset the iPod, checked the USB port. What's curious is that it won't even charge. I plugged the iPod into my laptop and it came up fine. It just won't connect to my desktop, any suggestions?

I've had this problem too.
What I do is use alt+Tab to switch windows.
?whenever you plug in an ios device with a camera,
Windows 7 will pop up a message IN THE BACKGROUND
saying, .what do yiu wNt to do?
Inport photos, open to view files, and close,
Click close.
.and that always solves the problem for me,
Yiu see, what's happening is that windows is literally holding the uos devie back from fully connecting
it so it will be able to chsrge since it thinks you always wanna do something with the photos.
Anyway hope this hekos.

Adobe Reader 11.0.05 won't always display the GUI when opening PDF?!

I have come across some odd behaviour with Adobe Reader 11.0.05. In particular, the following issues seem to have surfaced since upgrading to 11.x from 9.x.
Opening a PDF from any application, launches an "AcroRd32.exe" process but the GUI is not shown i.e. you don't see a Reader window or PDF. If you try open the PDF again it will launch another instance of that process and still won't show the GUI. Killing all AcroRd32.exe processes via Task Manager and re-opening the PDF will then work.
Some users are experiencing the following error when opening PDFs via IE and other 3rd party apps.
We've deployed 11.0.05 across a few thousand 32-bit Windows 7 PCs and it's a little concerning that PDFs won't always open. At this stage it is very random, maybe 1 out of 5 times it won't show the GUI but launch the process. Our only workaround is to advise users to kill all AcroRd32.exe processes and try again.
Our packaged 11.0.05 was created as follows:
AIP created from 11.0 msi > AIP patched with 11.0.04 msp (Q) > AIP patched with 11.0.05 msp (OOC). Transform was created using Adobe Customization Wizard 11.
Oddly, this does not occur using Adobe Reader 9.5.5 (or other versions of 9.x).
Sounds like 11.x is buggy, anyone else experiencing the same issues??
Thanks!

Yes, I am always having problems. Microsoft fixed the problem for me but it has reverted back to a trial I downloaded. I can't access my PDF at all.

2 month new Zen Micro, won't fully charge via

I have the zen micro 5gb and here's what been happening
Up until the last month the micro would charge up just fine. Now, it won't charge past one bar and it does show the charging icon in the upper right hand corner.
My USB connections are USB 2.0 at work and home and it won't fully charge. I ran the battery completely out of juice to try a fresh charge approach. I know the micro is getting power because it will run while plugged into my usb cable.
Oh yeah, recently, after the water drop on the screen, it usually loads the zen micro logo, then rolls right to the now playing screen. Recently, it sticks for about 0 seconds, and the touch pad is inacti've.
Before I deal with taking it back to BestBuy, I figured I'd see if there's anything I can try before.

Wow, I didn't know i had to have it in locked position for it to charge, b/c the charge indicator was always showing like it was charging, but no pulsing.
You don't have to, but if your USB power is marginal it ensures that ALL the power is dedicated to charge the player.
I just switched it to lock and it is pulsing. When I'm at work I have to use my usb connection to charge and I can't load the driver onto my work machine. If it is not pulsing, is it only just using the usb for power?
It's only using the USB power for the data connection.
What's the deal with the pusling?
It shows the player is charging.
Also, what's the benefit of upgrading the firmware to v2?
See the link "the difference between the Zen Micro v and v2 firmware" in the FAQ post.

Macbook battery doesn't recalibrate, won't finish charging.

Hi guys. I have a black macbook which I have had for almost exactly two years now. Beginning some time a week ago, I noticed that the battery would not finish charging. It will say "Calculating" or "Finishing Charge" for hours. I have left it plugged in in this state overnight and throughout the next day, and it didn't seem to finish the charge. I tried to leave the notebook on and running while the battery drained to recalibrate it, and when I plugged it back in, it hopped right back to life (rather than go through the slightly longer restart process it often does after recalibrating) and it still won't completely charge.
Coconut battery, on the other hand, seems to think that the battery is at 100% charge. It also says that the battery is charging at the bottom of the window.
Do you guys have any idea what's going on?

You may start seeing more strange behaviors, such as the computer shutting off long before the charge indicator says it should.
Will this cause harm? There is the possibility that the abrupt shutdowns would corrupt the directory on your hard drive, which would prevent the computer from booting properly.
If I was in your place, I'd continue using the computer as-is until the abrupt shutdowns start occurring or the capacity plummets. Keep your data backed up, just in case!

1102w won't always wake up to print.

11102w installed as a network printer won't always wake up to print. On ocassion it will take 10 minutes to hours before the printer prints. Two other HP printers on my network (HP 4100 & HP 8600) work fine.
The 1102w is the only one that has a wireless connection. It is assigned a static IP by my router (Netgear WNDR3700 V4).
Any clues?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK, IPs are all ok however... having 2 routers may cause an issue, don't ask me why as I have never figured out why wireless printers can't handle two APs in the same area.   I assume they have the same SSID but are on different channels like 1 & 6, 6 & 11 or 1 & 11.   If it can't stay connected to the SSID try setting one AP to a different SSID and connect to that one and test. For now... do the following too: You have already done step 1.
These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and make your router secure and hack proof.
1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual).
    This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers. Verify your DHCP range and change this
    first if needed.
2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled. Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the
    printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click Settings Tab/Auto Off. Or use the Printer
    Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS).
In the router: (Refer to your router manual for information)
3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1,6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router.
5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode.
6. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security. Nobody can hack your
   system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web).
7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
   they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks.
8. Save all settings. Power off both, wait 5 mins. Power on router wait 3 mins.
9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router.

I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract. Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy. I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract. Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy. I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

Nano not recognised on windows or itunes and will not charge, help!!!!

i went to update my ipod the other day and it said that the ipod was corrupted, so i took it out and pluged it back in again and it worked fine. then i went to charge my ipod on the computer a couple of days later and its not regognised on windows or itunes and will not charge!
i have reset, restarted and updated etc and nothing has happened. i have read other thru peoples messeges who have simular problems and they say that reinstalling and reseting to factory conditions doesnt work.
can someone please help me or has any one had the same problem? thanks

can i put it into disk mode if the computer doesnt recognise it at all?
Yes, you can.
"Putting your iPod into disk mode" is simply a process that involves pressing a few buttons on your iPod, getting it into Disk Mode.
To put your iPod into Disk Mode, follow the steps in this article -> Putting your iPod into Disk Mode
As Bryan said, see if the iPod is recognized by your computer when it's in disk mode.

If it is warranty, bring it back to the Genius bar and insist on a replacement. If out of warranty, you can get a replacement iPod with a new battery for $79 at the genius bar.

My iPod will charge in the computer but not my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same sofware and generation. Why won't mine charge?

My Ipod will charge in the computer but noy my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same software and generation. Why won't mine charge?

Look the dock connector on your iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corred contacts, foreign material and cracked/broken plastic.
Try:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears..
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod

Windows 8.1 won't install on partition

Hi,
I have a late 2012 mac mini and trying to install Windows 8.1 through Boot Camp, using a USB drive.
When I get to the point of choosing the partition to install the Windows in, the only formattable partition (the Windows dedicated one) won't let me install.
When I click the details, a message stating that the partition is MBR and windows needs a GPT partition and thus cannot be installed.
However, checking with Disk Utility the disk appears as GPT.
What am I missing here and what's the solution for my problem?
I'm kind of frustrated and need that windows to run some work applications.
Thanks!

I have another external hard disk connected via USB.
Can it be the issue?
I did choose EFI during boot because if I let it run alone and choose "Windows" I only get a DOS looking message that tells me to put a bootable media and press any key, but it doesn't respond to anything, forcing me to hard shut down the computer pressing long time the power button.

In this case it flashes and re-boots
Windows 8.1 Image loads quickly, flash and reboots PC, having corrupted boot entry

EasyBCD/Windows Boot Manager held on this partition (eg. 350MB)
If it gets corrupted, you can Restore it, rather than Gigabytes of 1st Primary O/S
Also, it will solve a lot of problems, when manipulating/adding/backing up/restoring O/S's

Fellow user from St. Louis, Missouri pointed in the right direction. I'm grateful
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Running upgrade assistant (going to Store rejects CPU, but no details)
Results in:
X You can't install Windows 8.1 because your processor doesn't support LAHF/SAHF.
X You can't install Windows 8.1 because your processor doesn't support PrefetchW.
There are at least three Processor requirements that M'soft does not list for WIN 8.1
and it's fairly well documented, if you ask the right question, eg.:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/2058683/new-windows-8-1-requirements-strand-some-users-on-windows-8.html
So that's it, exclusion by 'stealth' - at least M'soft told you that processor required NX - Execute Disable Bit
for Windows 8
For Intel units, look out for 'VT-x. Have a processor on the way, but will Motherboard pass CMPXCHG16b test?
AND PrefetchW AND LAHF/SAHF
Windows 8 support ends 2015, that means people who bought it will have had 2 years use
WIN 8.1 Upgrade/Update (sic) is free, but costly if it won't run on your machine
So, those many people who decried Windows 8 and stuck to WIN 7, were right after all
Early supporters of WIN 8, have been 'betrayed'
'Minimum Requirement for Processor 1Ghz - don't make me laugh! (Presumably for Phone 8)
M'soft have a 'more info' link on System Requirements page, so why not spell it out...
Otherwise it looks like a PR/Cosmetic exersize
