Problem with firmware upgrade with new battery.

Replaced battery on 30gb Vision M, with the original firmware of .40 - kept just a half charge. Went to install firmawre .62, and got stuck in reboot for about 30 minutes. Unplugged the cable, and now player's blue light flashing, and computer does not recognize player. The battery was already half empty, I hope I did not fry the new battery. Tried to reset while holding the on switch, and no go. I saw somewhere that I might need a dedicated power source other than USB to recharge the new battery. Was I supposed to update the firmware in increments? Just got this thing after years of SANSA use, and really like this one. Any advice or help is much appreciated. -Nash

If you don't already have one invest in a wall charger for the player. The PSP (playstation portable) wall charger will work with it. Keep trying to boot to Recovery mode after you have charged? the battery then start over with doing the firmware.

Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

I have had the same problem but I seem to be getting somewhere to fixing it!!! My battery was going down at 20% an an hour now its 10% with constant use and 5 in standby !!! So improvement all round
First I did a restore then I drained the battery i started to charge it and when it came on I turned the phone off completely and let it charge to 100% I then left it for a couple of hours on charge at 100. I saw no improvement after 1st drain so I repeated the drain battery and charge steps again with the phone turned off when charging and have seen a very big improvement. I am going to do it again tonight and hopefully problem solved!!!!
The next issue is iMessage as that's playing up and wifi drop out
Good luck

I have the new iPad. Even with airplane mode on, my battery life is extremely limited. Is there a problem with the battery? I used to have the ipad2 and had no such problem.

What is your brightness setting & how many apps are open?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

Plug it in for 15 minutes. If it doesn't come on hold the HOME button (the round one) and the SLEEP button (the one on the top) at the same time until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). If nothing appears on the screen after 30 seconds you have a dead phone; take it back for exchange.

Problem with my battery on iphone 5c

problem with my battery on iphone 5c

I too am so angry with my new carrier , This new year I decided to end my contract with Softbank because they did so many nasty things to foreigners over the years with like roaming charges 5 bad 3G 2 bad 4G iPhones and Apple store Sendai trying to play it ,we have no control over carriers.
So I had to pay a painful contract ending payment and MNP charge so I could use my paid for number on a NTT
iPhone 5 C that was at a 1 JP Yen special plan ,They just put on options you do not need like Wallet and charge for it ,then when I finally went throught the most rigourous security checks I was given a already opened Box because after I noticed the tape around the clear plastic top was missing and either side I saw Japanese customers opening the box by them selves I was not offered why ? when io came back they said they can open it do what ever they want until the money goes into the carriers account because I got it for free!,yet they will milk me for 2 years ! Blood suckers! Japan is a rip off.And they lock it so you can not use WiFi after 2 year contract.
Getting back to the point ,Because I was a new customer and Gaijin they are stopping me from clearing History ,it should be blue but greyed out ,they do so they can track browesing then sell my data on preferences for shopping.
Not only Apple that is keeping track it is also Carriers who are working together to get more money from us and not only that they damage your iPhone out of spitefulness because you canceleed the contract and want to use WiFi only They send so mant Ads trying to sell rubbish and you can not stop it ,and they change the contract in the middle and also try to stop you from cancelling a contract by telling you will be black listed.

I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging ) the green battery light is on - soon after it turns orange and then red. Is there a problem with the battery and is it fixable?

I have a second generation shuffle and even though (after charging) the green battery light is on it soon turns orange and red. Is there a problem with the battery and if so is it fixable?

If it's a 2nd gen shuffle, it is probably about six years old at this point. The cause is likely to be a worn out battery that is no longer able to hold its charge for very long.
It is technically fixable. This web site has repair guides
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Shuffle
But it is very small, so you need to be good at doing such things. The cost to have a repair shop do the work is likely to be uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50), which has more features (and possibly double the storage) plus a one-year warranty.

I purchased an iPhone 4S on 5/3/2012. Yesterday (7/17/2012) the battery started draining very quickly. I make sure to close all the apps after I finish using them. I haven't had a problem with the battery until yesterday afternoon. Any suggestions?

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.
Try these.

I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

Problems with new catalyst

I Have a problem with newer catalyst version 4.7 and 4.8..sometimes the screen goes totally black,it's like the montitor goes into sleep mode or screensaver.
This can happen at startup or after while the only thing i can do is to restart the computer by turning it off(or reset).
With cat 4.6 and the drivers before everything works fine.
I tried fastwrites on/off(no good)
Disable Vpu recover(no good)
Raise agp voltage to 1.6V(no good)
I also tried asus own driver but the same thing happens.
However i came to think of if there is anything i should change in power managment in bios because the comp won't wake up from sleep mode when pushing on the keyboard or moving the mouse(this is with cat 4.6 wich works great otherwise)
I hope someone have an answer to my mysterious problem

Reboot, run 3dmark2001, and again, hard lock within a few minutes into the demo (screen goes black into power savings). At this point I figure it's a problem with the 4.8's, so I reinstall the 4.7's, fire up Doom 3, and IT FREEZES AGAIN.
At this point, I'm loathing my decision to mess with my vid drivers at all, and wondering how come the vid card has started to lock up in 3d.. I start messing with all sorts of settings.. Finally, tuning the AGP speed from 8X to 4X totally resolved the freezes.
QUESTION: WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN DID 8X AGP STOP WORKING???
AMD 64 3200+
K8T-NEO
Antec 430W PSU
ATI RADEON 9600 PRO AGP
SB LIVE
1GB CORSAIR C2 DDR (2x512)
Lite-ON DVD/CD+RW
Windows XP SP2
I have never got my 8x AGP to work, its always hard locks when I use it...dunno why I don't really care. When I upgrade to a pure 8x AGP card i might if it still happens. Actually if it continues to happen there is a good chance I will get rid of this board and get the nforce probable. But at any rate, setting AGP to 4x has always fixed every video card problem I have had since putting this computer together. So try that I suspect it will fix your problem as well.
Also note that we have very similar setup's so try it and let us know if that works out for you.

Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power? Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power? Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

This is a major problem with Lollipop, but yo said it started 2 months ago. Several people have fixed problem by removing FaceBook And Face book messenger and then re loading the apps again. You might want to clear your cache before reloading. Not sure this is your problem, but worth a try. Good Luck

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "

Problem with new version 4.3.2 apps not working " after update to the new version "
i was in 4.3.1 then i do the update , but now after update i face this problem , so what i Supposed to do ?!!

Hi There
Had the same problem as you. App would terminate when launched.
Solution to working You Tube app:
-Go to playstore
- Uninstall app (it doesn't remove the app, only removes the update)
- "Et Voila", working again.
This doesn't correct the problem, it's just a workaround for you to be able to use youtube app again.
Hope it helped.
Best Regards

Wifi problems with new ipad

I'm trying to learn how to correct wifi problems with new iPad. It is the wifi only, 64GB model. I want to be able to use it at work, where we have a great wifi network. I can usually connect to our network with no problem, but after an hour or so my iPad loses the network. When I try to reconnect, I see that the network is showing full strength reception, but I get the error message from the iPad that I am "Unable to join" the network. My iPhone connects to the same network seamlessly, as do all of the other iPhones of my co-workers and the older generation iPads that some of our staff has.
At other locations, I typically have no problems (home, apple store, etc.) but I have had the same situation pop up at a coffee shop where I could see that there was a wifi network available, but I could not join it even though it was the shop's free wifi.
I have tried turning the iPad off, turning off wifi and turning it back on again, and forgetting the wifi network in question. I can't think of any other methods that are available to an end user to correct the problem.
I have already gone to the Apple store to swap out the unit, and the newer one is having the same symptoms.
Can anyone offer any advice here? This is quite frustrating.

No problem! Have a read at this most interesting article which has special significance as regards your models!
