Q10 Low Battery Warning Is there one

when the battery gets to about 14% it just switches off
no warning audible or visual
is there one?
have i disabled it in error?

No. For one thing, stop waiting until 14% for your phone to shut down.
Start topping it off whenever you can.

Low battery warning when battery full

This only happened to me this one time, but I have my iphone plugged in and the battery icon says it is fully charged, but I received a "low battery" warning.
Any thoughts as to why this may have happened?
Thanks!

What version of firmware are you on? There were battery gauge problems in 3.1.2 that 3.1.3 is supposed to fix. Meanwhile, you can try running the battery down until the phone shuts off, then plug in to the wall charger for 4 hours. Do this twice. if it still doesn't work right you may have a bad battery; take it to Apple.

No low battery warning and shut down

My MacBook is no longer showing the "low battery" warning and even with the batery status showing charge suddenly shuts down. If I check manually pressing the button of the bettery flashes 2 or 3 lights.
I have calibrated the battery several times but i am having problems doing it again because after the shut down there is still charge in the battery.
I have OS X 10.5.8 and all the software updates done.
Thanks.
Dan

Same Problem is happening to me. I have a Late 2008 13" Aluminum Macbook. If some one knows what to do please post. Thank you

Macbook no longer "sleeps" after 'low battery' warning, just suddenly dies

My macbook (just over a year old) used to give me a warning with 10 minutes left that it would sleep so as my data was not lost, if I didn't plug it in. However, recently, it has stopped doing this - instead of sleeping, if I don't get to a power source in time within 10 minutes, it simply cuts out, with the sound of the hard drive stopping - like if you shut down a frozen macbook with the power button.
This is REALLY irritating - what's going on? Why does it not sleep anymore, and is there any way to fix it?
I'm on Tiger 10.4.11, with an intel macbook...

Same Problem here. Tried several calibrations, smc and pram zap (well i guess there is no pram any longer so it zaps something else). Now I found another post where they talk about the battry 1.2 update. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1449128&tstart=60
I remember when trying to do an battery update to 1.3 manually the update told me that it is not for my macbook. But - I found the 1.3 update Bundle in /System/Library/Configuration/BatteryUpdater.bundle
1. I Removed /System/Library/Configuration/BatteryUpdater.bundle from my system
2. rebooted
3. Emptied trash
4. Installed update 1.2 by Softwarupdate.
I will now do an SMC reset an then let the battery run low and watch what happens.
Then do a calibration.
I have the problem here in different ways. Sometimes Macbook shuts down suddenly after low battery warning, sometimes it sleep, almost never it hibernates.
My Battery was replace after showing the x symptome about a year ago but now it looks bad again

No "Low Battery" warning on new (November 07) MacBook - Kernel Panic

Hello,
I'm not sure is this is the right forum for this, but since the problem occurs during a specific battery state, I'm going to post it here.
I just got one of the new November 07 MacBooks. The machine is great, and screams with the pre-installed Leopard.
First thing I did was plug it in to charge as I started configuring software. Once it was fully charged, I pulled the plug, and began using it on battery. My plan was to calibrate the battery, by running it all the way until it forced a sleep, then shutting down and plugging it in again, as Apple recommends.
Problem is, I never got the "Low Battery" warning, or even the sleep warning. At around 10 minutes of power left, I simply got a kernel panic. A few seconds later, the laptop just switched off.
I plugged in again for a few minutes, then ran it down again to see if I could reproduce the error, and I did get the low battery warning.
The next time the battery ran down, it gave me the kernel panic.
Is this happening to anyone else? Is it a new MacBook problem, or a leopard power management problem? I'm having no other issues at all with the MacBook or Leopard. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm a little hesitant to force a firmware update on a MacBook it wasn't meant for. These are brand new models, and I would think Apple didn't ship them with the known faulty batteries or bad firmware.
The frustrating thing is I have no way of knowing who the culprit is. Is it the brand new OS that I'm sure has a fair share of bugs? Is it the new hardware having a power control issue? Or is it a combination of Leopard and the new hardware? I was hoping to find some users who had the same problem so I could narrow it down. Battery drains out, kernel panic, then the machine shuts off after a few seconds. Funny thing is, the indicator says I have like 10 minutes or so left, but it appears that the battery must be completely dead, since it forces a panic and the machine just dies. So it might be a calibration error. The Mac thinks it has some juice, but in reality it's just about dead.
I made an appointment for the Apple store tomorrow, so we'll see what they have to say. It's otherwise running beautifully, thankfully.

I just got a "low battery warning" on my iMac... What is that all about???

Just got a low battery warning on my screen. What does it mean? What do I have to do to correct this? Could this be why it seems to take so long for pages to refresh/display; why the screen seems to frequently freeze and why I frequently see that spinning rainbow wheel?

Your pram battery probably needs renewing.

My Ipod nano touch is not charging, not showing in my PC or laptop. Last I saw an apple icon and low battery signal. There after the screen is black and no power not taking AC or PC charge. What Can I do?

If the Reset didn't work, you'll need to do a Restore.
From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finished, you will be asked if you wish the contents of iTunes to be copied to the iPad.

N97 Low Battery Warning

Is there a way to manually discharge the battery on an N97? Or alter the time between getting the first low battery warning and complete battery discharge?
From the first time I get the warning to actual discharge takes ages.Yes that can be a good thing but if, like me, you prefer to let the battery completely discharge it can be like waiting for Christmas.
I know I can use the music player, camera, video etc to help discharge the battery. But is there a more specific and faster way?

You should not let the battery discharge completely. It can damage the battery. The battery prefere to have as much juice as possible on it all the time. Once a month you could discharge it to like 10-20 percent.

Low Battery warning at 90%

I have a G4 ibook, that didn't get used for a long time, (over a year) and I am using again after my newer laptop was stolen. The battery may be near the end of it's life, but I am confused by getting a "low battery warning" dialog box, when the battery indicator says 90%.
If it was just dropping quickly I'd assume the battery was toast, but I don't get the conflict between the two pieces of information.
Is there any point in resetting the PMU? Should I just consider this a not-so-portable until I replace it?

Have you tried calibrating the battery?
Calibrating your computer's battery for best performance
If that doesn't help, resetting the PMU may not help, but it wouldn't hurt.

Low battery warning for my iMac keyboard

I keep getting a low battery warning for my iMac keyboard even when it has brand new batteries. Is there a way to switch this off or reset it so that it doesn't keep informing me?

Hello! I also have this problem. My keyboard is brand new and so also the batteries. I have tried with different types of batteries but get the same warning. I also have tried to erase the device in the bluetooth settings and add it again. Nothing works. It is a pity because I like mac.

6270 on o2 low Battery Warning

Hi folks,
i was wondering if you can have a low battery warning on the 6270 as i don`t seem to get one , my phone just goes down , another thing is every now and then i get a flashing message across the bottom of the screen , check info service ,anyone know what this means.
Thanks
Chris

MIne's a 6030, and I get this very irritating message quite frequently. It's certainly nothing to do with the battery; I took it into O2 to ask, and was told to ignore it!!!

It kicks in at 3% on my 2011 MBA, I have seen reports that the % at which it appears can vary quite a lot, from 16% to 3%.
Speculation would be it depends on the fitnesss of the battery?

My rMBP's battery had fallen to 3% before I noticed it, and I never saw any popup warning. I was not running anything fullscreen (just firefox covering part of the screen).
Running your battery down to these very low charge levels will shorten its life, try to avoid discharging to less than 40%, try to stay on AC power as much as you can (all the time is better than your current useage profile) and only let it discharge when there is no other choice.

Zen Micro Photo Low Battery Warning With Fully Charged Batt

I have two of these players and both batteries work fine and indicate fully charged in one of the players. Neither battery works in the other player. No power at all with either of them. If I connect the player to a computer all I get is the creative splash screen followed by the Low Battery Warning with the yeild sign, nothing else. If I turn the player off then it reverts to no power at all. What is going on, anybody know?
Thanks

What was the resolution. I am having the exact problem.

Strange low battery warning...

Evening all.
I recently bought a new Nike+ sensor for my touch as the battery died in the old one.
I successfully paired the sensor with my touch but when I started the app the low battery warning still showed up! thinking this was wrong, given it was a new sensor, I went for a quick jog, calibrated it and continued jogging. when I had finished it said I had done 0 miles!?!
Now thinking it was a duff sensor I took it back to the shop and got a new one. paired it again and the low battery still comes up!!
Could this be a software problem? I have paired it several times and the warning still comes up and after a jog it records a distance of 0 miles
Anyone have any ideas??
Thanks,
Andrew

When I took the above stats, I had recharged the battery just onced. Now I've gotten up to two recharges. I think you are correct, it takes a few cycles to stabilize. Thx for the comment.

Disable low battery warning?

Is there a way to disable the low battery warning that pops up at 20% remaining? I turned off Notifications, but that didn't stop the low battery notifications.
I usually have up to two hours to go when the battery is 20%, and dismissing this warning every 10 minutes gets annoying. Plus, there is a battery level indicator on the screen at all times, and it turns red when 20% is reached. So really, this pop-up warning serves no purpose at all. It reminds me of Windows, tbh.

Hello MikeC2010,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
At this time no.
