Reference to the cycle posts with pics posted in this thread. Explain This!

Ok, I've been reading the posts on this forum, and noticed what people been saying about the mAh dropping on the batteries and so forth. Now the thing about my situation is that I've had my week 10 Mac Book Pro for about 4 months now. And I've gone through about 43 cycles (as of writing this post) and I use it alot. (pretty much everyday). Now the thing that I read in this post is that people been talking about how the the capacity drops from the original capacity. Mines used to be 5500. But now it's 5279. It's funny cause for a moment it said 5260 (like everyone else) if your wondering about how my current battery information (as of writing this post) here it is below.
Battery Information:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 5279
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 4352
Amperage (mA): -1269
Voltage (mV): 11959
Cycle Count: 43
Now here's the thing. Something crazy I noticed. And i just had to add pictures. Cause when I noticed it... I was like *** is going on? I even had to take pictures of it.
2 Days ago I was using my mbp and when I dc'd he ac power, it told me that it calculated a time on it of 2:45 min. ( i had been running it off AC power for almost 2 weeks) And that was with the light being green on the magsafe indicating a full charge on it when I dc'd it. I was like aww crap. my bat cell must be dying. Now I let it Discharge till almost dead, and I put it back to charge for the night. Now today I was using it reading your post earlier and I just had to go on and see if there was something going on why my max time from it usually being 3:30 went down to 2:45, thinking maybe it was a battery just not indicating the right info and needed to do a discharge and back to full charge on it since i usually always have it plugged in to ac power, and it went up to 3:34. And then it just kept climbing. I had the MBP on for almost 30 min, with usuage and noticed the above info and just had to take pictures of it to prove it. Here are the pics at imageshack that i just personally took less than 20 min. ago and directly uploaded to imageshack

Now notice, I have the page to the original thread open in the back and it's showing the original thread that moved me to write this post. Now the crazy thing is that the time kept going up. Now I had the screen brightness set to medium. And airport has been on since I turned it my MBP. But it peaked to 4:24 or so with the MBP on for almost a half an hour. Now this is strange due to the fact that I've been using the stock bat on it since I got this MBP back in early May. I think i've made this as detailed as I can.
Now I've been writing this post for almost a half an hour, and it showing a time of 3:04 min as of writing this post. And I wasted almost 15 min. uploading the pics to the site. Can anyone explain why it is that the battery indicator is showing that its actually getting longer and longer and not only that, but i've NEVER had my mbp bat last this long. Not even when I first powered it up for the first time and did the bat calibration. I have'nt been working the processor to death, but it's just so strange. Furthermore, I have one of the bat that is on apples recall list, but I don't want to sent it in yet, till it's almost dead and then I really need a new bat. I'm gonna try to juice this one for almost the 1 year warrenty that this MBP came with and then about 2 months before send it in for a fresh bat. (trying to be slick and save some money and extend the use of my batteries since they ain't cheap).
Anyone out there got an explanation? Would love to hear it. If you need any further info, Just ask. I'll answer it.

AirBruce,
This is normal behavior, and it has nothing to do with the reasons for recalling the batteries.
Your MBP will calculate estimated battery life as you use it. Every change in the sate of your MBP will affect the parameters used to calculate that estimate. For example, if you start out on battery only with a full charge, and you have your screen brightness turned all the way up, you might get an estimated time of 3 1/2 hours. If you then turn down the brightness but continue to use your MBP, the estimate will gradually be re-calculated, resluting in a longer estimate.
Launch some processor-hungry application, and the estimate will again go down. Sometimes very quickly. The indicated battery life is an estimate, and it is based on how much power your MBP is consuming at the time of the calculation.

  • Background FI Posting with clearing, posting key control, etc - How?

    I have the requirement to post FI documents with clearing, with defined posting keys, where some of the fields come from file, some of them defaulted. It should happen in the background.
    I used BAPI BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST. I had the posting key problem, however with Badi ACC_DOCUMENT using EXTENSION2 I managed to generate the FI docs with the right posting keys.
    Now I have problem with clearing. It seems with this BAPI it's not possible to trigger clearing.
    I found some threads about FM 'POSTING_INTERFACE_CLEARING', however I don't think I can have any influence on the posting key and generated line items. So it doesn't help to me.
    FM BAPI_PAYM_ITEM_POST_CLEARING is for payments.
    Using program RFBIBL00 would be difficult, as far as I can see it can only use file in the specific format as an input.
    I should read my file and generate another file and call this program. This wouldn't be really the best approach.
    In this moment the only solution I can think of is transaction recorder/call transaction approach. Unfortunately this solution would be really release-customizing dependent and not performance-optimized.
    Any other idea?
    Thanks in advance,
    Peter

    Hi Rob,
    Thanks for your answer.
    In one of the sap standard batch program I found FM FI_PSO_DOC_DIRECT_INPUT. I'll give a try, it might help also.

  • Manual Bank Statement (One entry posted with wrong Posting Key)

    In The Manual Bank Statement, the user has posted one entry with wrong posting key, How can that be rectified? Or Is there anyway wherein the entire statement can be reversed?

    Hi,
    The standard document change rule will never allow to change the posting key irrespective of the transaction being used.
    You can use program RFEBKA96 to delete the statement so that you can post the same statement.
    If document generate with wrong posting key can be reversed through regular FB08

  • Reference using the name assigned with setName

    I am automatically generating a data update screen that displays labels
    and associated data fields. The labels and fields are generated based on the field names and types contained in a SQL table. As the fields are generated the field name is set to the name of the field in the SQL table.
    For example:
    decimalData = new LimitedDecimalField(currentDoubleValue,  columnsAllowed, minDoubleValue, maxDoubleValue);
    decimalData.setName(((Vector)fieldInfo.elementAt(i)).elementAt(1).toString());Normally I have a reference to the field that I need to set or get a value from.
    But in some cases I also have total fields that need to be updated. I am
    only able to identify the name of the field (the one set using the setName() function).
    Is there some manner I can use this name to set ot get the associated field value?
    Thanks for any suggestions
    rykk

    Is it possible to check (process) the form (component) hierarchy to identify the field?

  • Selecting specific records out of the same table with PICS

    Post Author: nambi
    CA Forum: Formula
    I have a Database table in which we have information for our paint codes,
    This database when accessed through our will display the types of tests we do for the products we manufacture, we manually enter in these results through the software.  When I open up this same table in access I noticed that each test we do is displayed as new entry under the same product, therefore I have several entries for the same product code, and since we have several tests for each I am unable to specifically pull out the data I need.
    For example I need to create a data sheet for our customers displaying the bake time for these all our products the Product code (formkey) is listed multiple times but all I need is to record the Bake (TargetAlphaValue) time. Out of this table I will also need to report on the Gloss. If I use the record selection I am only able to display one type of test although I will need to specify other types as well.  This is the area I have the problem with,
    I have shown in a jpg what I am looking for, would anyone here know how to pull out only the TargetAlphaValue and associate it to the bake and formkey?  Then do the same with the Gloss test and pull up the TargetAlphaValue for that it would be of great help

    Can you be more precise , please :
    - which table stores the people identities ? (I call this one Identity)
    - which table gives the class where the student works in (I cal l this one Claa_attendees)
    - which table gives the instructor of a class (I call this one Class)
    If your issue is that you have one table which stores Itendities , and you need to display Student identity and Instructor Identity, you have to call this table twice in your query , using table aliases . I mean :
    Select Stud_iden.name, Instr_iden.name
    From Identity Stud_iden, Identity Instr_iden, Class_attendees, Class
    Where Class.clas_id = class_attendees.class_id
    and class.instructor_id = Instr_iden.people_id
    and class_attendees.student_id = Stud_iden.people_id
    Is this what you need to do ?

    Even though it is geared towards applications purchased from the App Store and you're experiencing the issue with all apps, most of the steps would still be applicable to your situation. I would also take a look at the troubleshooting assistant to see if that helps:

  • How do I make the pages larger with firefox? I like to use this but text is was to small. So I always go back to internet explorer. HELP

    I don't have any tool space on the top of the page. only home and favorites google too. I also don't have to bottom where I can press to get to my programs. I do like firefox. But the text is way to small. How do I fix these things?

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.
    Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.
    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

  • Transfer Posting with MIGO.

    HI,
    I need to do a transfer posting to post some of the materials using 541 mvt to my Subcontracting Vendor. When i am able to do it with MB1B , i am able to access with reference to PO whereas in the enjoy transaction ( MIGO ) with Transfer posting, i am able to see only reference documents such as material document, Reservation and Others.
    If i want to add one more reference to the Transfer posting function how to go about.
    Please expedite.
    Regards,
    RitiG

    Hi RitiG,
                                                                                    Unfortunately, as you have seen, the only two available references to post a Transfer posting with MIGO are 'Others' and 'Reservation'.                   
    This is, it is not possible to post a transfer posting in MIGO with reference to a Purchase Order. This is the standard behavior and it cannot be customized.                                                                               
    If you wish this option to be available to transfer stock to your subcontracting vendor (using the movement type 541), then, you will need to make this posting via the business transaction 'A08 Transfer posting' - 'R10 Others', but then you will not have any reference to the Purchase Order.                                                                               
    Alternatively, you can use transaction ME2O, which uses this reference to the Purchase Order, or you can continue using MB1B.
    Best regards,
    Esther

  • Posting with ZERO

    Hi,
    I have one of the issue in Travel regarding posting of FI. Got an error in PRRW saying "Posting with ZEROs Posted". Right now trip status is transfer to fI but when i double click on PRRW error it is showing blank screen.
    May i know why it is happening.
    Thanks
    Parag

    Please have a look at the consulting note 170334 which has comprehensive details on posting runs with zero but one question.. was the trip initially posted  to FI (eg with advance?) and then changed subsequently.. that can be the reason for subsequent posting with zero
    Hope it helps
