¿Problems with battery indicator?

Hi guys of apple community I have a problem and I would like to give me tips to solve the problem
The problem is that the battery indicator on my ipod touch 4G has a strange behavior while charging indicator shows the battery charged (but the battery is not fully charged) and there are times when the battery indicator indicates the battery is still loading (but I know that the battery is fully charged) This is not a problem that really affects me because the battery works fine I am concerned to know why these problems happen if something serious I have no guarantee to bring the ipod touch to repair
Could you tell me if this is normal or if it is really a bad thing? I tried several power adapters and multiple computers but the problem is not resolved
I have firmware 4.3.5 with no jailbreak
P.D:Sorry for the bad english but im mexican and i dont know very well the english
Thank You!!!

I have a problem with the indicator for power on the side of my HP DV6-1341el.

I have a problem with the indicator for power on the side of my HP DV6-1341el. Insert the adapter's power jack on the notebook in front of the LED battery charging works, windows detects that the battery is charged, but if I use the diagnostic programs, they tell me they found that the computer is running on battery power and not AC mode.
Where is the problem?
I have also made the maneuver for the recognition by the operating system of the battery and does not seem to be there the problem.
If I use the laptop without battery in AC mode happens that led to the side of the notebook blinks twice, three times and then goes off when I put the power jack.

Go into the Device Manager. Expand the battery device, select the ACPI-Compliant Battery Control Method device, right-click it and select uninstall. After you have done that, right-click any device in the Device Manager and select scan for hardware changes. Your operating system will reinstall the ACPI-Compliant Battery Control Method device.
Post your results whether they are negative or positive to keep us posted.

Problem with battery for MacBook Pro 2007

I have a problem with battery that was replaced during video card service 1.5 years ago
Battery health was around 80% and it stopped to work, I continued to use notebook with power cable and after week the battery become like this!
spoke with person in Apple store and got answer that it is not covered by Apple and I will need to buy another new battery.
For me it looks like manufacturing problem and I'm not expecting that after 1 year my battery will die like this! Thanks that it didn't explode!
What I should do in such case?

Thanks for your reply!
All my battery story is ending with bad taste...
I always relied on quality of the Apple products, it brought me to change all computers and phones to Apple brand. I was ready to pay extra for their products...
This battery has an Apple brand on it and I'm expecting that Apple will take some responsibility for it.
First battery on my MacBook Pro 2007 worked without any problem for 4 years, then it was replaced by Apple service tech person for unknown reason. This "new" battery failed just after ending of 1 year warranty coverage and even deformed in such scarry way. And now I don't have any option to ask if there is possibility that I'm experience a manufacturing defect! And I know that it is possible, internet is full of negative comments for these batteries!
Now I'm asking myself again, if it worst to buy Apple products? Are these products have proper quality?

I am using my Ipad on a remote craftshow site and am having problems with battery lasting 8 hrs. Can I use a 12v rv battery to recharge it or atleast maintain the charg over longer periods of time? I have a dc adapter. thanks

You should be able to use the battery if you get a car type charger which recharges mobile devices.
The full size iPads use a 10-12W charger, whereas the mini uses a 5W charger. Many car chargers only supply 5W. But at 5W, the car charger should give you some extra time on your iPad. It would be best to use a 10-12W car charger.

Not quite what I heard when I went into the Apple Store in Hong Kong yesterday.
I have just bought an iPad in Hong Kong but will eventually be travelling back to the UK.
Louis in the Apple Store told me that iPads without cellular have international warranty but those with cellular do not (as there are slightly different models for different carriers).
But he was pretty cagey and essentially couldn't give a clear, straightforward answer. Which most Apple employees can't.
It is now a grey area, at the discrection of each local Apple Store & is subject, it seems, to you paying the import duty as a possible get out clause.
Look carefully but do tell us if you got this iPad reapired. Thanks.

Problems with battery life on idea Tab A2109A

I have retuned my idea pad twice to lenovo for repair due to long battery charge time and short battery life, received it back yesterday,charged it, downloaded my kobo library,around 10 minutes this morning it is now 55% wifi.bluetooth tec was switched off. have any other users had problems with battery life.(lenovo support say that it should run for 10 hrs on wifi dependant on what you are doing.)
Any help would be appreciated.
Bob

hi fireguy1957,
Welcome to the Forums.
Can you try to:
1. Ensure there's no recent apps running on the background
2. Turn off wifi, bluetooth, adjust brightness to minimum
3. Turn off automatic system updates under Settings > About Tablet > System Update > Auto Check Interval
4. Navigate to Settings > Apps > Running Tab and stop the process that you don't need to squeeze out more juice on that battery.
After you made the changes above, run the application that you use and observe the tablet.
Hope this helps

Hello!
I recently just downloaded the 'Waze' app as a backup for my Garmin. I've read a few reviews that seem to rant and rave about how good the GPS app is. It is community driven and maps are constantly being updated by users. Plus it has a few other fun stuff in it (something similar to Gasbuddy where you can owe prices on the map). But like the person above me said, there is lots of useful free GPS apps in the App Store.
Oh and I may be wrong but I remember reading an article about Google being slower about updating its maps system--ie no turn by turn voice, which many people have had complaints about.
Happy Searching!
Ps - if you switch I wouldn't go to Blackberry.

New air problem with battery after upgrade to 10.6.5

Hi List.
I bought new air about month ago. Everything was working like a charm.
2 days ago I did macos upgrade and I have big problem with battery performance. Only 2 hours of working after full charging. I decided to downgrade system to 10.6.4 and problem's gone.
Is there something wrong with 10.6.5 on new air?

Hi,
I dont think there is something wrong with 10.6.5 simply because I have no problem with it
Since battery management is one of the SMCs, resetting it may solve the issue.

Problem with battery running down more quickly after downloading OS6 to 3GS iPhone

Problem with battery running down more quickly after I downloaded OS6 to 3GS iPhone.

I guess I should have asked for the "definitive" fix. I read several "fixes" but it seems no one knows if Apple has a definitive fix. Kind of like going into an Apple store and getting three different answers from three different reps. At least they are not rude and no, I don't have a problem searching the forum.

Problem with battery life on 6.2.1

Since the update for IOS 6.2.1 about 4 days ago, I have noticed deteriorated battery life from the prior version. As a workaround I have tried to reset my phone and reset all email information as recommended. Updated settings to prevent push notifications, removed notifications and many other functions that were not causing me problems before, but to no avail.
Within 15 minutes of my phone being disconnected from the charger, the battery life decreases by 5-7% with the phone idle (Screen off).
Has anyone else encountered this and have you been able to correct the issue?
Thank you!

Hi BK, I updated my iPhone, my iPad and my iPod Touch and my batteries are draining like water. I am a school teacher and usually when I leave work at 4:30pm, my iPhone is at 74 to 76% Today I had to charge my phone 4 times at work because it kept on draining. My iPad is even worse, when I get home, my baterry is always at 97 to 98%. Today, I needed to use my iPad at work and from 100% at 9:00am it was completely dead at 2:30pm with no usage. I was shocked! I called Apple and they said that they are not aware of any problems with battery life and this update. I went to Best Buy and the Geek Squad toldme that it is a very well known problem. They are the ones that told me that the Apple boards was full of complaints regarding this issue. So I called Apple again, and they continue to tell me that it must be my device. Really? All of my devices, my coworkers, my father's, my sister's are all having the same problem and they won't own up to it. This update was supposed to improve battery life and instead, we got a nightmare. Please fix this now!

HP G61 Problem with Battery charging.

Dear sirs, I ve read so many posts but I couldnt find a solution so I decide to post one on my own.
I got an HP G61 and is working properly as far as it is working . The problem I have is with the battery.
If I shout down the laptop and leave it with the charger on , when I boot the laptop the battery is full 100%
when is booted the light of power is on , the HDD light is normal and some times the charging light is on , some times is off.
I notice that lots of ppl have similar problems so what I did is that
With a multimeter I saw that power output of this power brick is fine! besides that I got three HP laptops with same power supply so I try this brick to other laptop and seems is working fine with the other laptop. I try other's laptop PSU to this one and had same problems.
So i focus that the problem is at Battery. I download the Battery checker from HP and scan my Bat (was100% charged) and the result was OK!!!
so the mysterious in this case is that the laptop is working properly , I try full preformance , no problem at all, just the battery runs out faster (make sence)
So as the laptop is working the power cord is connected and there is no light on the side of the connector but there is the light ot the power on at the laptop. As I m working with the laptop then the charging light goes on and the battery seems connected with the AC and charcging. some times says plugged in but no charging!!! when I have the indicator of plugged and charging that might goes some seconds and then disapears and goes back to discharging mode...
If I shout down the laptop and leave it connect it with the power brick then the charging led might be off but after a while goes on and remains on for long so seems to charging normal....
I know that this seems strange and crazy but this is what happens...
As far as this laptop is working properly and I m ok with its performance (as far as stays powered on) I find no reason to recycle it!
the only annoying is that sometimes might not charge at all while is powered on and of course after a while goes off...
the battery Is an original HP battery , and if it is 100% charged , last up to 1hour and something...
hope I gave you a full image of what is going on with this machine.
I tried also some solutions that I found on internet regarding power settings ACPI controllers etc that seems to solve problem with the microsoft power management . this had a small solution for a couple of days and then goes back to old status.( I dont know if windows restores some stages on their settings)
If there is a hardware problem at the end of the day on mobo I'd like to know it there is a chip or controller or any other component on it I can replace . (I m electronic engnr so I can replace it) I got some dead HP G61 models with broken screens etc or broken mobos
thank you in advance

Problem with Battery and Keyboard Light

First off, sorry if this is in the wrong section. This is my first time on these forums.
Just today I was skyping my girlfriend on my Macbook Pro (that I got in the summer or 2010). I have SmcFanControl installed and I regularly use it to monitor/increase my fan speed. As I regularly skype and play WoW on this computer, my computer temp often sits around 160-170 degrees F.
Today it was at around 170 and I had it on my lap. I sat up and jostled the computer a little and it shut off. The power cord light, which was green, immediately turned off. I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in and it stayed off. The computer wouldnt restart for about 30 seconds. Finally after hitting the power button several times it turned on.
It worked fine for 10 or so minutes. I assumed I just moved it too suddenly, although I have never had a problem with that before. Then, I moved again and it shut off AGAIN. It took another 30 seconds to register the power cord and to turn on.
This time, when it booted up, it said my clock was set to a date before 2008, althought it was still at Feb 16, 2011. Also, as soon as I turned it on, the fans were going full speed (as loud as when i have SmcFanControl set at 6200 rpm). I opened SmcFancontrol and it says my computer's temp is at 32 Degrees F and 000 rpm, which I know is not correct. I can't change the speed of the fans and the temp of the computer hasnt changed at all.
Also, my battery icon has an X through it and says "No batteries available" "Power Source: Power Adapter." The green light is very dim on the charger.
AND on top of this, my keyboard lights no longer turn on, even pushing F5 and F6. I am in a dim room so they should auto turn on.
I am afraid that I may have overheated the computer, but I was wondering if anyone has any advice. I was thinking of opening the back up but I dont have a small enough screwdriver at the momment. I also tried doing the "top -u -s3" command to check cpu% and my highest one is Firefox around 10-15%.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm thinking this is gonna require a look at the Apple Store, however I am an out of state college student and I'm not returning home for another week and I need my computer for assignments.
Sorry for the wall of text. Thanks in advance.
P.S. My computer is up to date.

SMC reset works best with anything that relies on power for the machine. When it comes to batteries SMC reset and PRAM usually do the trick. Also a lot of people miss this, do not plug on the top plugs use the lower plug.
As for the temperature on the lap, expect a lot of heat, the computers are designed to lay on flat SOLID surfaces. The underbelly on aluminum chassis laptops act as a heatsink. In addition the rubber feet keep the product high enough so air can pass through and help cool the system.
As far as the adapter you can have AppleCare send you without waiting a week for it. If it is an obvious hardware problem they may do an exception for you if you are out of phone support. Highly recommend APP for the phone support. You would have a battery on it's way to your current location in a couple days!

Weird problems with battery

Hi guys,
I having some weird problems with my new battery. I changed the old battery (that died) for a brand new one. The first problem was: the mac didn't recognized the new battery in a macbook pro 13 early 2011. So, I putted the battery in a another macbook pro 13 mid 2010 and worked. So, I passed the battery again to macbook early 2011 and worked fine. I thought this very weird, but it is ok. The big problem came after: about two or three days of regular use, the mac just didn't turn on (I'm sure the battery charge was full). Even the battery charge button didn't work, like as the battery didn't stay there. However, if I shake the mac, something happen and the battery start to work normally. few minutes after (around 15 minutes), the mac shut down immediately, like as someone disconnect the battery from MB. If I shake the mac, the same thing happen again, few minutes after the mac turn off. The other strange fact is: if I open the mac, disconnect and reconnect the cable of battery (that connect with MB), the mac start work properly and 2 or 3 days after the problem go back.
Anyone has a clue?
I'm not confident about a bad contact problem of the cable with the MB, because the problem is repeated with some regularity of days (ever 2 or 3 days after connect the cable to MB).
I guess could be a problem in the logic board of the battery... What do you think could be? If the problem is because the logic board, is there a solution?
Thanks

Call Apple and get them to take a look at it, you've done all the 'customer troubleshooting' you can ...
