The iPad's battery doesn't change from 70%

I buy a iPad 2 today and I connected it to the charger, and it is in charger a couple of hours and all the time it shows me that it have 70% and that not change! Help please..

Make sure the 30-pin connector is fully seated in the side of the iPad.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Why the time of the online redo logs doesn't change?

    Oracle 11.1.0.7 on windows 2008.I find the time of the online redo logs doesn't change since Jan 18 when I had restarted database,and the time of some datafiles doesn't change either.the database is always online and changes are wrriting to the files, I don't know how this happened?
    would anyone help me? thank you.

    and the switching of the redo logs doesn't change the timestamps of the logfiles since Jan.18 when I had restarted the database. this situation does not appear on the early 8.1.7 database on windows 2000
    Does this situation normal?Hi,
    Why dont you post the output of the query you are using such as
    select group#, first_time, status from v$log;
    select name, last_time, status from v$datafile;
    select name, CHECKPOINT_TIME, status from v$datafile_header;Time stamp wont change for offline and may be for temp tablespace.

    The security popup really messes with the focus in Firefox (3.6.16) though.Not saying you're wrong, but I'm using FireFox 3.6.16, as well, and I have none of the focus troubles you've described.Cannot reproduce it now either. Weird.I got the impression you were referring to keyboard focus, so I did some further tests on focus behavior. The test results are listed in the Accumulated Results table on the 1st post.
    The only browser so far that works as I'd expect, or at least as I'd like, is IE.
    Applets and keyboard navigation have always been a PITA. Some time ago I vaguely recall seeing an update involving a new parameter to regulate initial focus (applet or page, ..or another applet), but for the life of me I cannot locate it now. Given that it was a parameter for initial focus, I doubt it would help in this case.

  • I want to use my iPad with a projector using apple tv. How do I homeshare if the iPad cannot access itunes when away from home?

    I want to use my iPad to give presentations using Apple TV. How do I get the two to homeshare so that they "talk" to one another. Instructions say use iTunes but I am getting very confused over why this is necessary when all I want to do is link 2 pieces of equipment without having to use wi-fi.! Wi-fi won't be available at the locations where I have to give presentations. Help!

    Thanks Dave. There is still a problem. The iPad will only stream to the projector whilst connected to Wi-fi. The icon disappears from "iPod" on the iPad (the only place it appears, not iTunes as the instructions say) once Wi-fi is disconnected. Only audio will stream, no icon appears in the drop-down menu to show that pictures will go over. The outcome of courrse is that, as it stands, the iPad cannot be used for presntations using Keynote, neither can it be used in a location without Wi-fi, which rather defeats the object of have having bought the equipment in the first place having been assured that with Apple TV it would be possible. Is there anything else I can try? I would add that I have downloaded any available updates to Apple TV. All itmes were bought 3 weeks ago so should be reasonably up to date anyway.

  • TS4036 I received a message that my iCloud storage was almost full. So I went in settings and turned off most of the apps that we're set to back up in the cloud. I deated many of my photos on the iPad and MacBook. No change in cloud storage. How do I clea

    How do I delete items stored in the cloud and clear it so I can get it working? It will not store any more photos. I cannot use it. It is almost full. I don't want to buy any more storage at this time. I delegated some photos on my iPad and MacBook and nothing changes.

    # Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.
    # Sign back in, and you will be asked to save the password you entered.
    # This will save the password and autocomplete if you have this option turned on.
    I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]

  • HT1386 I have sync an ipad with a new computer and the photos have been transfered into files with no extensions. I can view them on the ipad but canot view and delete from the computer.

    I have synced a new computer with the ipad and the photos have been transferred as a file with no exstention. I cannot view them on the computer but can on the ipad.

    Well I forget the exact keys, but believe pressing and holding down CTRL before clicking Restore will allow you to browse and find the backup file (may be wrong).
    In the end, as far as the iPhone thinks, it is a new computer so it will erase and resync stuff and as long as you loaded everything back into iTunes all should sync back. Main issue is other stuff like the data within the apps, notes, etc that are part of the backup which is why you would want to try to restore from the backup. If you don't mind losing data in apps (eg: do you care you have to relog into some apps and start over, don't care about game scores, etc) then you don't have to worry about the backup. If you have important data in some of those apps then you will need to restore from the backup.
