When running on battery power, my MBP shuts down after 30 mins..please help
this has been happening for the last two weeks; whenever i run my MBP on battery, it goes blank/shuts down after about 30 mins...would start back on, but shut down even before the login screen comes! i checked the battery display under the laptop-it showed 3 green lights!! TIA!! i bought my MBP off the apple website last september!
With your symptoms, most likely, yes. If you have a 17" MBP, you are out of spec (based on Apple's specification of 80% health for 300 cycles). If you have a 15" MBP, you're in spec (84% health), but your symptoms indicate a problem (i.e. a defective battery). So, contact AppleCare!
You can't calibrate now. I asked because if a battery goes too long (150-220 cycles) without calibration, the "sudden loss of power" can result.
Hope this helps...
Graham, that's why I inquired about calibration, but with the OP's cycle count, that's not the issue. Also, FYI the "battery condition" information is part of System Profiler with Leopard; the OP lists Tiger, and did post all the information available under Tiger.

AFTER UPDATE GREY SCREEN NO SOUND THEN SHUTS DOWN AFTER 30 SECONDS PLEASE HELP
AFTER UPDATE GREY SCREEN APPEARS WHEN POWER BUTTON PRESSED NO START UP SOUND THEN SHUTS DOWN AFTER 30 SECONDS AND REPEATS ITS SELF PLEASE HELP
As for now, only thing that helped was an archive and install with preserve user settings. Seems after the reinstall of 10.4. everything that was weird has become normal again. I hope very much this state stays on for a while - or ever!
A comment to everybody: with problems that are common you get a lot of help from friendly users in here, but if like in my situation things get a bit more uncommon than the usual querks and troubles your bound to go through a whole workflow of tests and algorithms - i did learn some new things but eventually I had to go for the ultimate - the reinstall (of course, erase and install would have been more work.) and it's frustrating not to find out how it came to this problem. I wish I could nail it down to something I did mistakenly - i guess I'll find out next time.
THANKS THOUGH to those who replied.

Hello. I have a problem. I cannot delete any apps from my ipad. It won't even wiggle when i tap and hold on the icon. There's also no restrictions and passcodes in my settings. My photos on camera roll even get lost once i shut down my ipad. Please help.
The preinstalled apps, those that came as part of the iOS, cannot be deleted and will not shake or provide the black circle-X for deletion.
Others should do that if you touch and hold for a few seconds.
If they are not, do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if that appears. -

Sat Pro A10 shuts down after 15 mins playing internet games
hello
when i play games from internet like zuma ,scherwoods my notebook sat pro A10 shut down after 15 min playing
when i start up my notebook he make a disk reading
what can i do what happens
[email protected]Hi
In my opinion the overheating is the problem. First you can try is to clean up the unit properly. I presume that CPU and graphic card runs very intensive and produce a lot of warmness. If the hardware can not be cooled properly the notebook shuts down suddenly.
Clean it up. -

Satellite Pro U200 shuts down after 5 mins then starts after a while
Satellite Pro U200 shuts down after 5 mins then starts after a while. When it shuts down the
blue screen says - stop: (0x0000008e,0xaa846f58,0xa9f29808,0x00000000)
sysaudio.sys - adress aa846f58 base at aa843000, datestamp 41107f1aHi
Believe me; its not easy to say exactly why the BSOD appears.
Generally it happens because of the serious software malfunction or hardware fault.
Did you use the OS from the Toshiba image?
There message says something about sysaudio.sys.
This file is a system audio WDM filter process and its a part of Windows OS. It controls the hardware like printer or graphic card on a lower level.
Note: The virus uses such files as a camouflage. You should use always a anti virus application.
Furthermore you have suggested that the notebook shuts down after 5 min.
Well, this sounds like a overheating issue. How did you use the notebook? You should know that the free space around the notebook is very important because of the air circulation. The ventilators should be also free.
I you use the notebook in the right position and this will happen again so I would recommend asking the Toshiba service partner for the help. They should check the notebook. -
Satellite A10 shuts down after 40 mins
A-10 Pro keeps shutting down after 40 mins, power source is always the AC lead, can anyone help?
Has been checked for the following:-
Viruses
Power managment - on never shut down
Cooling fan seems to be okayHi guys
The compressed air spray is a nice tool to clean the internal cooling ventilators!
Usually the dust and debris prevent the fans from properly rotation and therefore the temperature increases and leads to the overheating issues
Use simply such spray and you will solve this!

Satellite A30-921 shuts down after 10 mins
I own a Satellite A30-921 but it shuts down after 10 mins.
I've tried to alter the toshiba power management settings but they wont work any ideas ?Does the notebook shut down automatically without showing any error messages?
This could be caused by an overheating issue!
How old is your notebook and did you clean the cooling ventilators in the past?
If not I would recommend doing this.
To clean the ventilators you could use the compressed air spray which can be purchased in most computer stores.
The problem is that the dust and debris inside the notebook prevents the cooling modules from properly working and therefore the temperature increases to the higher level. This leads to the automatically shuts downs.
In my opinion the fans cleaning could helps to solve this issue.

Ignore the MacKeeper ad no matter what else you decide.
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.
Just sits there occupying very little space & never interfering, unless you need to invoke it in Single User Mode.

MBP shuts down after 30 minutes of inactivity
Hello - I've posed this question before and thought it was solved but it has come back. My MBP (circa 2008) with OS 10.6.8 continues to attempt a shut down after about 30 minutes of inactivity. If there is an open app it prevents the shut down but it sure is annoying.
Does anyone have ideas on how to prevent this? (Please note I am talking about a complete shut down - not going to sleep.)
Thanks!Thanks Carolyn,
I worked my way through the options and then eventually tried the reset. Bummer, no luck. My MBP still tries to shut off after a half hour passes. It's odd that the timing is so consistent, yet there are no settings I can find that would cause this shut down. -
my apple streamer continues to shut off after 20 mins, Iv vhanged my energy saver and displays, any help
Just to be clear;
Does it only shut down after twenty minutes when your Apple TV is streaming from the computer, or does it shut down after twenty minutes under any circumstances.
When you say shut down, do you mean the computer shuts down, goes to sleep or crashes.
