PB battery charged but not working

I have a third party battery in my 15" Aluminium PB. It charges but doesn't power the Mac at all... It just shuts down straight away and messes up the date and time settings on reboot (rebooted using AC power). Any ideas?
Thanks.

Did the third-party battery ever work properly? If not, return it. If you post the brand or vendor of that battery, perhaps we can direct you to another model that may do better. If the battery came from an auction site, i would be very leery of it. Lots of reports of counterfeit batteries that simply don't work.
the date/time issues are due to a dead internal backup battery. Many Powerbooks ave the same issue but continue to work. New inernal batteries are nearly impossible to come by except for the latest PBs, and require a major teardown to replace.
If you get a new main battery that actually works then the dead internal won't be such an issue.

Have you recharge your iPod for at least 2 hours, preferably till the Full charge Battery symbol comes ON.?

I just got My iPad 2 for a few days ago but why the charger is not working, how they are going to replaced it with a new one ? ?

Please be informed me... with my battery or charger problems....
my iPad 2 charger is not working....
since I've got it for five days ago, I only use it for three times....
Are they going to replace it with a new one ?

Most likely yes. There's a manufacturers warranty against defects for a year. I'd contact your place of purchase and talk to them about it.

Battery showing 100% charge, but not running off battery

I have an Hp Pavilion 10 Touchsmart that shows a 100% battery charge, but will not run off the battery when I unplug the AC adaptor. I have tried calibrating the battery which went okay. I have tried uninstalling the microsoft driver for the battery and reinstalling it and it did not fix the problem.I have also checked the "Battery Report" using the cmd prompt. The battery report showed everything was charging good with the battery on the laptop for many days.I checked the "Energy Report" using the cmd prompt. The energy report had some warnings, but it was all relating to energy use.I have owned this little computer for less than a year and it should not be giving me this much trouble. At this point, I think I have done everything I can do on my end especially since I cannot remove the battery without disassembling the laptop. I do not think it is a bad battery unless it is defective because the computer sees very little use and it is less than a year old so I am thinking a software problem. Any additional suggestions?

It is my understanding Hp warranty is only 90 days which means it is not under warranty. I have owned the laptop for less than a year with it shipped by Hp on "Thur 9/18/2014 5:15 pm". I orginally thought it was not under warranty, but I just tried a Hp warranty status site and it said "2015-10-23" was the warranty expire date.

Yes. You can contact your carrier (except AT&T and Virgin Mobile) or Apple.

The warranty is only good in the U.S.
You woulod have to send it to someone in the U.S. They could take it in and if it is defective, then it would be replaced.

Something is wrong with your charger or cable.
If it works with another charger, then it is not the iphone

IPhone 6 Battery Usage setting not working.

When I go to my setting and check my Battery Usage setting it states: "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes". I've been using it for hours and I get the same response when I go to the setting. I've turned off my phone multiple times to see if that would resolve it, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Hello.
I have the same problem. iPhone 5, iOS8.0.2, used for a few days - still no usage statistics, only "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes".
I tried restore iPhone (DFU) without restoring backup from iCloud/iTunes, resets, hard-resets, erase all settings, drain battery to 0% and charge to 100% overnight etc. - nothing helps.
I wrote to the Apple about this problem.
Here is the page that you can use to contact with Apple and report a bug - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Please, give the title of "iOS8 battery usage statistics not working" (or something like that), choose the "Bug report" and describe the problem. Perhaps it will make that Apple will eliminate this problem in the next version of iOS. More report - greater chance.
Regards
