Spilled water on Laptop- it works only when power cord NOT plugged in.

HP  Pavilion dv2000 laptop I spilled plenty of water on the right side where the power cord is. I removed that and took the battery out. (12 cell i think) Dried out the laptop for about a day or so. The laptop is fine except when I'm trying to charge while ON, it automatically turns OFF. So, what gives? How much money do I have to pour into it to fix it?
Thanks!

Water and electricity do not mix (obviously ).  When you are plugging in the adapter into your computer, there may be a short somewhere where the water was.
Maybe let it dry out some more, otherwise, I would take it to a local repair shop to look at it (if you're out of warrnty).

  • Iphone alarm doesn't work when the phone is charging but works fine when it is not plugged in, any reason for this?

    Recently my alarm hasn't been going off on my phone when it is plugged into the charger. This is a problem as i have work most mornings and have been late. When it is not plugged in the alarm works. I know it would mae sense to charge it before i go to sleep, take it off the charger, set the alarm then wake up but was just wondering if there was any reason why I might be experiencing this issue?
    Cheers

    This is something peculiar, normally that doesn't work that way
    when did this happen? if it just happened, then something probably went wrong with either the software or the hardware
    do charge the proper way, and see if it happens again
    or try completely draining the battery, and charge it to 100% and see if its gonna solve the issue with the alarm

  • Is there an app for the ipad that will put it to sleep on inactivity only when it is not plugged in?

    I know that native IOS does not support different setting for inactivity sleep depending on the ipad being plugged in.  Does any one know if there is an app that will do this?  I would like to keep it from going to sleep when it is plugged in but to go to sleep on inactivity when it is not.

    No. You would need to manually reset the autolock when you plug it in to do that.

  • Palm TX works only if power chord is plugged in, crashes if i take the power chord out

    Hi,
    I brought a new Palm TX in 2008. I never used it because I was busy with work and it was never used. I recently found it when cleaning my storage. I tried to charge it for 2 days continious. As soon as I take the power chord out, Palm TX crashes. It comes back up again only if I connect it to power supply. Does not work all by itself.
    Sincerely
    Sudhi

    The battery is dead.  There are many places online that sell batteries and do the repairs at nominal costs.

    My Pavilion zd 7379ea will only start up in battery mode. AC adapter appears OK with a firm green LED, so external power supply may not be the issue here? When I'm starting up (with what's left on the battery), both the charging LED and the AC LED are constantly blinking. When turned off, the battery LED is firm, and battery appears to be charging (but which obviously is not the case).  Occasionally, when computer is turned off, the AC LED is lit with a firm light.
    One odd thing I noted before this happened was that the computer ran on AC only when my HP printer was connected to one of the USB ports (no battery inserted). If I disconnected the printer USB cord, the computer just died immediately; it was like the computer was powered by the printer. Later I also discovered that the same cord (where it connected to the printer) had melted from extreme overheating. I tried to update the USB drivers for each port but it didn't change things. I also tried to connect a different printer to get the computer started but it didn't work this time. I'd be extremely grateful for any comments that may solve this power supply issue (and if possible explain the stuff with the printer connection).

    You unplugged a USB device while the notebook was still booted into Windows and on? 
    Normally that won't cause any issues but , If you did that you may have damaged your  system board's Southport chip.
    USB is not a plug n' play port like SATA  and eSATA are.
    Here is a link to the maintenence manual for your laptop series.
    Is your notebook still within warranty? By the processor components listed in the manual,I believe it is probably not.

  • Lenovo spkrs work only when external spkrs plugged in

    Arch runs great on noobies Lenovo 3000 n100.
    Streaming audio and system sounds work fine only when external spkrs are plugged into headphone socket.
    Onboard  spkrs can be heard along with external spkrs together. I have tried every combination of Gnome-volume-control sliders and mutes to hear onboard spkrs by themselves but no luck. It's not a big deal as the laptop is always on my desk but I'm just curious if it can be fixed as I am not experienced enough yet.
    Thanks

  • Ipod mini click wheel works only when charging

    my ipod mini click wheel will only work 100% when it is charging and is recognized by itunes. if a computer does not have itunes it will not work properly and also when it is not charging and i am just using it normally it wont work either. when it is not working right this is what it does: only the forward and play/pause and select work on the click wheel. cant adjust volume or go back to menu. but when charging and in itunes that click wheel works perfect!?!
    can anyone help me figure this one out?
    Also, the battery is really weak, it will only run for about 1hr on full charge. i dont know if that will affect it but if it does please let me know.
    Thanks

    Mine does the same, I can get it to work by taking off the bottom plastic part of the Ipod Mini and pulling the metal thing out a bit.

  • Why is Fault Policy working only when the BPEL's transaction is requiresNew

    Hi All
    I've defined Fault policy & fault bindings files for faults in my BPEL process. I'm using Oracle SOA Suite 11g.
    But the fault management framework is properly working only when the transaction property(bpel.config.transaction) of the BPEL is set to "requiresNew" in composite.xml
    When i modify it ot required, its not working, i.e. it is waiting for some period and erroring out. I could not manage these errors from the EM as we do for those in Fault Management Framework.
    Why is this behavior?
    I went thru this article, but could not understand it
    Transaction and Fault Propagation Semantics in BPEL Processes(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/integration.1111/e10224/soa_transactions.htm)
    Can someone pls explain this.

  • Does the NavigationController work only when placed in appDelegate?

    I am trying to build application that has a tab bar controller with two view and the first view contains a segmented control.
    Based on the decision of the segmented control, I load the tableview. The table view has an instance of navigation Controller in which I have assigned the tableview controller as a rootview controller. When I click on any row of the table view, a new controller gets pushed on the table view. In my case, the new view does not show up on the screen, once the row is clicked. I used NSlog and checked that the views pushed on the stack are correct.
    I read many threads here and saw that all of them use tabBarController and then it directly uses the navigationController and viewcontroller. Is this the only config that works ?
    What if I want to have a tabBarController->tableViewController->NavigationController, isn't it possible? Can anyone please help?

    WitchKing wrote:
    So, if I understand this fully, I can initialize the navigation controller as soon as the any row is clicked and put the tableView I am on as my rootView for the navController. and also push the next view controller I want to see, on its stack. and present the navigation controller's view.
    The usual way to implement a table view drill-down would be to make the first table view (or the content view which includes it) the root view of the nav controller. I.e. the table view's controller would be the root controller. When you do it that way all the objects will do what they were designed to do, and the code to push and pop subsequent views will almost write itself.
    However there's no reason you can't do what you described, which (if I understood) would be to attach the nav controller's view to the hierarchy only after a row in the table is selected. Note however, that you couldn't then expect the nav controller to make that first transition from the parent table view. You would have to provide your own transition to the nav controller's view.
    You bring up a good point in any case. I never explicitly answered the question in the Subject line of this thread.
    does the NavigationController work only when placed in appDelegate?
    No, there is no requirement to create a nav controller in any particular position of the view hierarchy. Unlike a tab controller, a nav controller need not be the root of the hierarchy (i.e. added directly to the key window). In fact you'll find several examples in the docs which show one or more nav controllers under some other controller.
    there might be some problem with adjusting bar heights and etc though.
    I'm not sure you proposed anything that would make it difficult to configure a table view. One nav controller issue that will impact table view position and size is the attempt to hide the nav bar which would otherwise appear above the table. I walked, unsuspecting, into this problem when I tried to help with another, currently ongoing thread that might interest you: [http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9606805#9606805].
    While I'm pasting links, this one is also relevant to your post: [http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9607946#9607946].
    Thank you for the very kind words about my posts. For some reason, this past few weeks I've been spending most of my forum helper time writing about table views and nav controllers. I sure hope I've been dispensing correct information. It's not like I have any knowlege of the internals. These puppies are black boxes to me, so I'm just going by the same docs you have and my own (growing!) collection of test beds.

  • Web ADI works only when cache is cleared

    I have created a custom integrator and the web ADI component works only when I clear the cache from the functional administrator responsibility in Oracle Apps. The component has a lot of validations for the fields and is expected to insert upto 2000 lines, It works fines for a small number of lines but the web ADI hangs for a large number of lines (>500). But if I clear the cache, it works fine. Anyone has a solution for this, cause I cant clear the cache always and I cant tell my customer to do the same.
    G. Arun
    Oracle SSI

    The WebADI caching can be very confusing. I made a little summary of what you can do to avoid caching problems like:
    "ORA-06508: PL/SQL: Could not Find Program Unit being Called in Custom Web ADI" or
    "SQL exception occurred during PL/SQL upload"
    A) clear cache with http://<machine>:<port>/OA_HTML/BneAdminServlet
    B) clear IE cache & restart
    C) clear the cache from the functional administrator responsibility
    D) Bounce the Apache server
    E) SQL command: Alter system flush shared_pool
    F) Download another WebADI spreadsheet (but you can re-use your old spreadsheet)
    G) log out and log back in EBS
    H) login at another computer and try it there
    ...or sometimes just wait for a while till it works again.

  • Ipod Touch is working only when plugged to a charger.

        I haven't been using my Ipod for over a month. It wasn't used by anybody at all to be specific. Yesterday, I got it back and tried to use it. First it was charging for about 40 minutes, but after this it turned on and worked correctly. I left it charging a few hours more, and when I came back, unplugged it, Ipod wasn't working. I plugged it back, magic, it's working again. So I left it charging over the night, but when I checked it today's morning it gave the same results. Maybe You've got some solutions i could use.
    2 Important things:
    - It works only with a wallcharger, not with a computer cable.
    - I wouldn't like to go to a service because my warranty has expired.

    You can try resetting it by holding down the home and sleep keys, past the power down, and until you see the silver apple logo. Let it reboot and then let it charge and see if it holds the charge. If it doesn't then your battery may  have died. Afraid that isn't user servicable. You can either take it into an authorized repair place or you can take it to a third party repair shop. Using hte  non-authorized place will void your warranty, but if your warranty is done like you said, then it may be cheaper and doesn't matter as much.

  • Foreing keys works only when created as CAPITAL?

    Hello,
    When working with HTML DB tutorial, I have noticed that foreign keys works only when I do create them as CAPITAL. I did create some foreign keys manually, and when I was trying "query by example" it did not work correctly unles I did re-create the foreign keys using all captials in their name. Why is it that?
    Thank you,

    I let it dry out more and it started working. It still has a quirk or two but I can live with it.

    Try plugging the headphones in and gently wiggling them around for a few seconds. It may be that the sensor that tells the iPhone that headphones are plugged in has gotten stuck. If this doesn't work, they try a reset (hold down Sleep/Wake and Home all the way until the Apple logo appears on the screen).
