Should I leave it plugged in for a long time?

Sorry to start another thread about battery questions, but this is another question I have. I just drained by battery today and it's on the charger right now at 90% charging after 5 hours. Problem is I am going to sleep soon, should I wait til it charges til 100% and disconnect or leave it in and charge throughout the night even though it's going to stay at 100% for the next 9 hours? I guess the gneral question is: is it bad to leave the phone on plug even if it's at 100% for a long time?

No problem.....Good night!

  • Should i leave charge plug when it is fully charged?

    Should i leave charge plug when it is fully charged? I read that my macbook pro with retina display (Early-2012) has 1000 charge-cycle. If i do not unplug it when it is fully charged, it won't count plus for charge-cycle. However, is it beneficial?
    Thanks a lot.

    You can leave it plugged in whether using it or not. It will not harm the battery:

  • I wanna try a sleep hypnosis video on youtube which last eight hours, is it okay to leave it on video for that long? Or will the screen overheat?

    I wanna try a sleep hypnosis video on youtube which last eight hours, is it okay to leave it on video for that long? Or will the screen overheat?

    Intensive video games can cause some heating, but if it's just a video showing it shouldn't be a problem. An iPad 3 or iPad 4 is more likely to heat than the iPad 1 or iPad 2 due to the retina display.
    Do you have to view the display the whole 8 hours? You may want to lower the screen brightness.
    You will probably have to keep the iPad plugged into the wall charger.

  • Satellites L650D: how long do i leave it on charge for the first time?

    just recently bought this computer Toshiba Satellite series L650D and was wondering how long do i leave it on charge for the first time on power????
    Please help

    Hello
    If the battery is fully charged, the battery LED will switch the color. Depending on your notebook it will switch from orange to white for example. After this the battery is fully charged.
    The charging time is also depending on the battery, AC/DC adaptor and if the notebook is truned on or off. So nobody can exactly say how long it takes but the battery LED will it show you. :)

    Hello minhluhoc,
    It sounds like you are unable to reset your security questions but do not have access to your rescue email address. According to the following article you will need to contact the iTunes Store support team:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
    Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • PLEASE HELP 2/24/13 Brand new iPod Touch 5th Gen froze on set up and I tried to shut it down and it was on the apple logo screen for a long time and it shut down but now it won't turn on! PLEASE HELPPPPPP

    DESPERATE PLEASE HELP So my mother got herself an iPod touch 5g for Christmas and barely asked me to set it up last night, (BRAND NEW NOT OPENED YET).. I set it up not plugged into iTunes (directly on iPod). I was setting up a new iTunes account for her (got passed Wi-fi set up and location services) and as I was doing that, it mysteriously froze somehow. So I held the home button and power button down simultaneously, which I thought would restart the iPod/shut it down.. so it did, and it was on the apple logo screen for a LONG TIME.. and when I checked after a long time, it was black. I tried to turn it on, charge, and plug it into itunes (iMac computer) and it won't turn on!!!!! PLEASE HELP

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • ITunes Match now stalls on step 1.  I have a PC with Windows Vista.  I've use Match for a long time

    iTunes Match now stalls on step 1.  I have a PC with Windows Vista.  I've used iTunes Match for a long time & it has worked well until last week.  Most of my songs now have a dotted outlined cloud beside them & I can't download to my phone.  6 new albums can't be seen at all.  I've turned off Match (with shift key down) & turned it back on - restricted my upload speed to 75% of max - I even uninstalled iTunes & re-installed it.  Any suggestions?

    iTunes Match is stalled in the same place again today.  Step 1 seems to have completed as the blue progress bar is complete.  The message says "Delivering your iTunes Match results..."  When I went to bed last night, this is where iTunes was stuck.  But this morning, Match had stopped trying to "deliver."  It obviously did not finish because 6 new albums do not show up on my iPhone 5 - all of the 3 steps on the Match page were grayed out this morning & the "Start" button was available.
    This is what I did yesterday - I looked at My Music and clicked "Songs."  I then added the "iCloud" column and sorted by that field.  I found about 100 files that had a problem of some sort (cloud with exclamation point inside).  Each of them had lost track of where the music file was - even though the music files were exactly where they should have been.  I re-linked (one at a time) all of the music files to the song titles.  In the cloud field one song was described as "ineligible for iTunes Match."  It had a could with a line drawn through it.   I didn't know what that meant, so I deleted the song.
    I then turned off iTunes Match holding the shift key down & iTunes began collecting information from my library.  This took several hours but it did seem to complete because it changed to the "delivering results" message.  However, this morning I noticed that all of the files I re-linked yesterday still had the "error cloud" symbol today - a cloud with an exclamation mark inside.  Yesterday these songs wouldn't play until I re-linked the files.  Today they will play as expected, but they still have the "error cloud.'  To add to my confusion albums marked with the "error file" are still able to be downloaded to my phone, but the songs with the "error cloud" will not play smoothly on my PC.  They stutter regularly throughout playback.  However, if I download one of those songs or albums to my phone, it plays perfectly.
    I hope this helps someone to explain what my problem is & the appropriate solution.  I have a little more than 12,000 songs in my library in case that makes a difference.  Should I just delete the files with he "error cloud"?  All of the songs appear to be still in the cloud because they are available for download to my phone.

    I have had elements 10 for a long time but recently the scroll bar for the fonts has disappeared. any ideas?

    First try resetting the tool by clicking the tiny arrow at the far left end of the options bar and choosing reset tool.
    But you should be able to use the arrow keys to navigate through the fonts, too.

  • My track pad keeps getting disconnected. A reconnect only works a short time. Disconnecting the batteries works for a longer time. What is going on?

    My track pad keeps getting disconnected. Reconnecting works for only a short time. Disconnecting the batteries works for a longer time. What is going on?

    Odd thing about batteries, tombird, whenever you turn off the mouse or trackpad or disconnect it, the battery % reading on the monitor rises.   Sometimes even if you do it for just a few minutes.   I would say your situation is normal.
    BTW, rechargeables appear to be more susceptible to this than regular batteries.
    If Barry's suggestion doesn't help (it should do), switch off, thoroughly clean out the battery compartment and the contacts, put in a pair of new, good quality batteries (Apple, Duracell or Energiser) and try again.

    I have been using an app cheat with friends with my iPad for a long time. One day it just stopped reading the screen shot.  I have tried deleting a few times and starting over. It works on my iPhone perfectly fine. Please help !!!!!!!  Thank you

    @Colin Robinson
    Thanks, I did it hundreds of time!!!
    Anyway here's what I did:
    I'd wrote an email to Apple America, even if I'd purchased the item in Europe and the US support usually should not be involved in any European case.
    They wrote me back that a European office will have call me in 48 hours.
    After a couple of days I've received a call and a new iPod is coming from US...
    Don't ask me if I can find any kind of logic behind it, but at least I can state that the US support has been decisive.
    Thanks to everybody.
