Power Loss

When the AC adapter is plugged, in and the macbook pro is on, it says most of the time that I have 97% battery charge and that the power source is the Power Adapter. When the plug is pulled the computer dies on me. In addition the computer wont turn on without the AC adapter. I already tried resetting the PMU, to no benefit. Any help?

It sounds like the battery has died, check out this page about the extended battery warranty.

  • Broadband does not auto reconnect after power loss

    I have a D-Link DSL-302G ADSL modem and Netgear AC1900 on an  Eaton Powerware 5110 UPS. When there is power loss or brown out in our neighbourhood , our internet goes off and  does not reconnect automatically. I then have to physically turn off the Netgear Router and turn back on to get the Green LED  Internet light back on.  The modem seems unaffected, but it is bridged so my router controls the connection process. Now this is what has me puzzled - my devices never lose power because of the UPS, and the router connection mode is set to "always on" , and Internet IP address is set to "Get Dynamically from ISP" Is it the local Telstra exchange dropping all connections when swithcing to battery backup, and then disrupting the normal connection process for the Router upon power resume ? Can you confirm what happens, or are there some tests I can do? This is very inconvenient as I run a terminal server, and not in the office all the time to reboot the router.    

    Hi Melior,
    Normally, if there was a loss of power at your premises but not at the exchange then once the power was restored your modem should automatically reconnect (In this instance, a UPS should keep the modem powered up and connected).  If there was a loss of power at the exchange your modem should connect automatically once the exchange is powered back up.  
    So given the information that you have provided, I would suggest that you check your equipment.

  • MSI Z68A-GD65 G3 Power On after Ac Power loss how to turn it off?

    Hi,
    I want my computer to stay off when the power go down. But it is automatically powering on after Ac power loss even though I set in BIOS to stay off. Any ideas? Happened twice already.

  • RVL200 won't auto-reconnect to Internet after power loss (PPPoE)

    My RVL200 firmware 1.1.7 is configured for PPPoE. The connection to the Internet is via an ATT (SBC) DSL line using a Siemens Slipstream 4100 modem. The 4100 is configured to allow the PPPoE connection to be managed by the router. The RVL200's PPPoE fails to automatically reconnect to the Internet after a power loss (or if I click Disconnect on the RVL200's web page). This is true for both the Connect on Demand and Keep Alive PPPoE alternatives. In either case, I have to go to the router's web screen and manually click "Connect" to force a reconnection. The LAN is populated by Win XP SP2 systems.
    Is there some special configuration needed on the LAN, in the RVL200's routing table, or in the modem to allow automatic reconnection to occur? Obviously it is undersirable to have to give out the RVL200 password to everyone who might need to force a reconnect after a power loss.
    Neither the RVL200 Admin Guide not the Users Guide has any useful information on this issue.

    I have to manually reconnect it. This issue came up when testing what would happen with an RVL200 in a power failure - whether it would automatically reconnect. I don't expect a lot of power failures, but I do want the network to reconnect automatically rather than have to count on someone knowing how to do it and having the apssword.
    Am I correct that it is supposed to automatically re-establish the PPPoE connection?
    What triggers the reconnection?

  • Have to reset WRT54G after a power loss

    Hi,
    I have a WRT54G ver 2 running firmware version 4.21.1.  "Keep Alive" is enabled for the PPoE connection to my provider.
    My two problems:
    1) Anytime I encounter a power loss I have to reset the router and then of course reconfigure it.  In the past, I never had to do this whenever there was a loss of power. 
    2) In a related problem, I cannot use the wireless print server.  As soon as I get it configured and working other PCs on my network lose internet connectivity.  That forces me to reset the the router, which forces me to reconfigure the wireless print server, and the sysle begins again!
    Is it possible the ver of firmware I'm running is the issue or do I have a faulty router?

    Routers seem to be sensitive to electrical surges and noise. This can cause them to loose their settings. You should keep your router plugged into a high quality surge suppressor with EMI/RFI filtering, such as the Belkin SurgeMaster Gold Series.  EMI/RFI filtering is required.  A surge suppressor alone is not enough because surge suppression does not start until the voltage exceeds 330 volts. Alternatively, most UPS devices have both surge suppression and EMI/RFI filtering.
    If this does not prevent your router from "forgetting" its settings, then the router is malfunctioning, and it should be replaced. A router that forgets its settings is not secure.

  • Imac G5 power loss

    Hello, i don't know how many of you still have an iMac G5 out there, but i was wondering if anyone has ever had any problems relating to sudden power loss. Sometimes I will be working on something and it just shuts down. i would like to know if anyone out there might know if some setting could be responsible for this. thanks in advance.

    You could try the following forum, plenty of iMac G% users there I'm sure.

  • Strrange problem with Acrobat Reader 9 and power loss

    Hello,
    I have a Lenovo T61P (6457-A26) with Windows XP, and I have found a very strange behaviour with Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.
    Sometimes I open a PDF, and I read one or two pages, and then my laptop has a problem like a power loss (remove of the batter).
    I can read those PDF on other PC/MAC/Linux, ... no problem at all.
    So I'm thinking about an incompatibility with my laptop and Acrobat Reader...
    So for now, I've installed another PDF viewer (FoxIt), and I can open my PDF without fearing this lost of power...
    Did somebody experienced something like that? If yes, are there some solutions?
    Alessandro

    1. It happens with any file i want to open in browser.
    2. The Problem is specific to browser. When I open a document in the Reader application everithing works fine.
    kind regards
    Marcel

  • 8.02 POA crashes w/ntdll.dll fault after power loss

    Hi,
    Running GW 8.0.2 on Windows 2003 server (POA, MTA and GWIA). After power loss on Friday, POA will not stay up for long - crashes with:
    "Faulting application gwpoa.exe, version 8.0.2.10840, faulting module ntdll.dll version 5.2.3790.4455" error.
    MTA and GWIA are not crashing.
    I thought maybe it could be a corrupt message but the only messages in the queues are dated today and not Friday (\PO\wpcsout\ofs\4 - wpcsin queues are empty). I am currently running gwcheck.exe against the message databases but that is going to take a couple hours. Any thoughts? Thanks.

  • FPGA Reset during power loss? NI 9802 Module

    We have recently started using the NI 9802 on a cRIO system. We are getting the error -65550 discussed here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/BD118434E87B9732862575C8006FD7FB
    The article says that the error can be caused by the FPGA resetting while the drive was mounted. "To prevent this error from happening in the future, do not reset the
    FPGA while you have an SD card mounted, reset before you mount the card
    or after the card is unmounted." Does a power loss reset the FPGA and require you to reformat the card??? We plan to use this as a remote system and power failure is possible. We would not be able to travel hundreds of miles back to the device to reformat an SD card in the event of a power loss. This can't be right. How could they sell a module that worked like that?
    Also, does the card need to be formatted with FAT32 or FAT16?
    [will work for kudos]
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I would like to submit a suggestion for the next version of this module. It would be awesome if in the rare but possible case of the crio losing power that the card did not become corrupt and you would then not need to travel all the way to the device and pull the SD cards out and reformat them with a pc before your system could be come operational. Like the ability to reformat at run-time would be a decent fail safe function. Even though you would lose all the data you had recorded onto the SD Card, wasting time and money, at least the entire system would not be fatally crippled by a simple loss of power and unexpected device reboot.
    As it stands, even with a quality power backup battery as you have suggested, the simple possibility that you could lose power and need to manually perform a format on the SD card makes this module inferior to simply plugging in a big USB drive, both in terms of reliability and storage space. The appeal to this module, even though it could only hold two 2 gig SD cards, was its apparent ruggedness and reliability over using a usb drive.
    Respectfully waiting for a new version of this module,
    Rex

  • Problems with connecting to internet after power loss w WRT54G v3

    I'm having problems connecting to the internet after a power loss with my WRT54G v3 wireless router.  I'm at the latest firmware version (4.21.1). 
    I found similar problems with the V2 version of this router. 
    After a power failure, I can access the http interface to the router,all of my settings are there (not set to factory settings),the unit is connected to my ISP provider,I can ping from the router, but none of my wired or wireless PCs can ping.
    To "fix" this condition, I have to reset to factory settings, then re-load my saved configuration.This usually works, but sometimes I have to hard reset the unit.
    Anyone having this problem? Anyone have a fix?

    Sudden loss of power for extended periods of time will 9x out of 10 will corrupt the saved configurations and can only be fixed in the way you already described.
     A solution for this is getting an UPS incase of a power failure your equipment will be on battery back up until either the battery runs out or power is restored (depending on the model changed the battery time)

  • Yosemite does not start after power loss

    I just want to report a bug related to the new OSX Yosemite.
    Here at work I have to manage around 30 iMacs, plus some MacBook Pro.
    After some initial tests, where I did not discover any particular incompatibility with our applications, I decided to upgrade my machines to Yosemite, but I had to stop the upgrade process when I realized the new OSX has this big and strange problem... now I have my machines half upgraded.
    It happened to have some power losses due to the bad weather conditions, and after each one the machines with Yosemite didn't start... you have the black screen with the apple logo and the bar freezed at almost 50%.
    You can only power OFF and ON till the computer finally starts... usually it takes 5-6 tries.
    The problem is not related with the iMac models, I have some different kind of iMac and on overyone I have the very same problem, the only thing these machines have in common is the new OSX 10.10 (10.10.1 didn't fix this problem), the others with Mavericks does no suffer this matter after the same power loss.
    Hope this report could reach some Apple developer, in any case if I have to produce some log to debug it let me know, I will be happy to help.

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

    Hi,
    we have a Wireless LAN Controller WLC 4402, Software Version 4.1.192.22M (Mesh).
    At the moment there are 6 Access Points in one house, one of them is the root AP. The others are only connected via electrical socket.
    AP’s are: AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9 / Boot Version 12.3.8.0 / IOS Version 12.4(3g)JMC1
    I think the configuration worked fine over a period of 2 years.
    Now the problem is that the number of access points connected to the controller is changing nearly every minute. At times there is only one AP connected to the controller. So it is impossible for the clients to build up a steady connection. They have to log in via the guest user web interface at short intervals or they can’t see the wireless lan.
    First we thought it would be a problem of one or two “defect” access points. But we replaced 4 of the 6 access points and the problem is still there.
    An example, yesterday:
    13:17 o’clock – 2 AP’s
    13:19 o’clock – 4 AP’s
    13:21 o’clock – 5 AP’s
    13:23 o’clock – 4 AP’s
    13:25 o’clock – 5 AP’s
    13:25 o’clock – 4 AP’s
    13:26 o’clock – 5 AP’s
    13:26 o’clock – 6 AP’s
    13:28 o’clock – 4 AP’s
    13:28 o’clock – 2 AP’s
    Eye-catching is the following message of the log, which appears often: “52       Mon May 16 13:21:56 2011        AP 'AP001d.e557.6fd8', MAC: 00:1d:70:01:bc:20 disassociated previously due to AP Reset. Last reboot reason: power loss
    Also eye-catching is the AP up time. The Root AP is up for over 80 days. But all the other access points show an up time of a few minutes until some hours…but not more.
    Does anybody know what the problem could be?? I read some similar threads but no solution.

    Hey,
    last week I tried to upgrade the controller step-by-step.
    Under the software 4.1.192.35M the problem was still there… access points were often disassociated from the controller.
    There were problems with Software 4.2.207.54M too. The access points couldn’t reach the download-status. The log of the access point said that it could not open the tar-file.
    So I went back to 4.1.192.35M. Of course the controller lost some of its configuration. I configured it new with the same settings as before.
    After it the wireless connection seemed to be a little bit more robust. I asked the users to test the connection at the weekend and this is the answer:
    “so we tested the WLAN during the weekend. The situation definitely improved with respect to before. Authetication is much faster and the connection (when active) is sensibly faster.
    However the connection is still very unstable and it is necessary every five-ten minutes to reconnect (especially for intense network traffic like when watching a streaming content or using VOIP applications. Actually switching off and on again the WLAN card (Airport) often a new authentication is not required. However, without doing so the connection would not resume alone to a working state.
    So what to say? Better than before (thanks) but far from being fixed. From last September to January we did not experience any problem, so it must be something that chronologically happened at the beginning of the year, it is not a systemic problem.
    But there were no changes or anything else at the beginning of the year.
    Do you mean it makes sense to resume upgrading? I’m a little bit afraid of more problems like under 4.2.207.54M

  • Audigy 2 nx power loss problem

    hello fellow audigy 2 nx users. If you are like me, you bought a second power adapter for it as the one that came with it doesn't work too well. Well I'll explain what happened first before I explain how I fixed it:
    I was listening to music in winamp and the power cable came unplugged. I tried replugging it and nothing happened. It was off of warranty, so I thought why not pull it apart and find the problem. I got it apart but couldn't find anything wrong with it. My multimeter said the voltages were all good and I was stumped for a bit. No lights would come on when I plugged in the power (not even the optical out light). I thought I was somewhat out of luck, so I packed it up as I didn't want to pay to have it fixed when my onboard still worked (as bad as it sounded).
    now how did I fix it you ask. Well, I was expirementing with the card a bit. I plugged my headphones into the headphone jack and plugged in the power and heard a pop. So there was something happening inside. I tried all of the plugs and when I plugged it into the "front" plug, I noticed the optical out light up. I thought "hmmmm" and left it plugged in for about 5 minutes and presto; it worked. I unplugged the power and the front audio line and then plugged the power back in and nothing.
    So, for my card anyways, it takes a few minutes and requires something to be plugged into the front out when starting up from a power loss state, but the power button works, the mute button works, everything works now.
    I only had the power and front out plugged in when I got it to power up the first time, and the second time I had the usb, power and front out plugged in.
    Go me, and I hope this helps others out there... feel free to e-mail me at [email][email protected]][email protected][/url] if you have any questions as I don't usually check the forum unless I am having troubels... and I usually fix it on my own as opposed to the forum providing me with the solution...
    Good luck to all you audigy 2 nx users out there...

    <SPAN class=time_text>EDIT:
    <SPAN class=time_text>OK... this seems to be only a temporary fix... I noticed the card overheating something nasty (the NX not the power supply), so I unplugged it when I went for a quick walk (2 hours later), this method no longer worked for powering it up... gonna pull 'er apart and see whats up... will post more as I figure things out...

    <SPAN class=time_text>
    <SPAN class=time_text>EDIT:
    <SPAN class=time_text>Upon closer inspection, this method seemed to only work once. I pulled it apart (and it is currently sitting taken apart on my lap) and with the front out plugged in I can get the optical out to light up, but otherwise it is dimmed out. The temperature problem doesn't seem to be affecting it as of right now (ie it is not overheating), but the chips labeled on the board as d, d2, d3, and d4 all have some brown stuff around them (especially d2), so I am thinking that could be the cause of the problem... gonna do more expirements to find out for sure, and post the results... good luck to all those people like me...

    <SPAN class=time_text>Last edit for the night:
    <SPAN class=time_text>It looks to me like mine is pooched (or foobared). It no longer powers up, but power goes out across the majority of the board (I cannot find the problem though)... might try more tomorrow... dunno yet... good luck to everyone else, and sorry I couldn't be more help...

    <SPAN class=time_text>EDIT:
    <SPAN class=time_text>I left it plugged in for a few hours as mentioned above (power and front out) and it eventually powered back up. The card works again... sort of... it seems to have a problem with overheating if left on for an extended period of time (several hours) so I think that this is more of a temporary fix than a permanent one... good luck to all those who are having a similar problem...

    Hi Guys,
    Sorry but I couldn't see any professional answer on this issue even though the creative representati've tried but his answer was too faint and doesn't have the right answer!
    No matter if ur unit Audigy2 NX is connected to ur PC or not, and if it is connected to the main power then the lights have to be on and the device should function when u turn the power on.
    If for any reason the lights get stucked and lights keep on it means u have a malfunction in the unit itself, it doesn't have anything to do with any windows drivers at all, sometimes humidity is such an enemy for those touch buttons devices, the device has to be opened and to be check by a pro.
    As for having no power at all, no lights will go on when powering up, u need to check the output voltage coming from the main power source with an avometer to make sure that there is an output voltage, if the adapter is getting hot still it doesn't mean that there is an output voltage at the end at the cable itself might be broken somewhere in the middle or by its end.
    If your adapter is deli'vering the right voltage as it is printed on the same adapter then the device needs to be opened by a pro and some power transistors might need replacing or as per the pro decision.
    Cheers all and take care ..

  • My Airport Extreme is not working after power loss. How do I fix it?

    Everytime there is a power loss at my house my AE dorsnt work for 4-5 weeks. Is there any easy fix, so I dont have to wait for 4-5 weeks every time?

    Your AirPort Extreme is likely defective.
    If it is in warranty, ask Apple to replace it. If it's not, you will need replace it, as a power outage should not do any more than turn off the AirPort until the power comes back up. This would really be the same as if you pulled the power cord from the back of the device and then plugged it back in later.
