X over battery icon

There is an x over my battery icon, powersaver says it's at zero percent. It's been plugged in all day, please help.

It seems to have the same problem with the MacBook Pro of a friend a 15 in 2.0 GHz Intel MA600LL.
The light is green but it is indicated *no charging in progress* and that *the battery is to replace*.
The first battery is very recent; only 55 cycles.
The second is an old one. The last time that I used it, it indicated 1058 mA and 12533 mV.
I suspect that it is not realy a problem of battery. Of management of the charge perhaps ? I have resetted SMC, without success.
Is there a pro with a little help ?
Alex

La lumière sur la prise est verte mais il est indiqué *aucune recharge en cours* et que *la batterie est à remplacer*.

La seconde est une vieille. La dernière fois que je l'ai utilisée, elle indiquait 1058 mA et 12533 mV.
Je soupçonne que ce n'est pas un problème de batterie. De gestion de la charge peut-être ? J'ai ré initialisé le SMC, sans succès.

X over battery icon, got new battery yesterday still won't go away

I brought my MacBook into the apple store yesterday because an X had shown up on my battery icon. They gave me a new battery because the old one had expanded and everything seemed to be working fine. This morning, I wake my computer up and the X is back over the battery and it says "no batteries available"--the same message that I was getting before. It works both plugged in a not, when I unplug the adapter, it still has the X and says no batteries available but also says power source: battery (talk about identity crisis!). I tried resetting the SMC and PRAM but the X is still there. After resetting the SMC, it says that it is charging the battery which has a 0% charge for about a minute before the X comes back. When you press the button on the battery, all of the lights light up.
What do I do?? Of course, my apple care expired literally a week ago so I'm SOL if there's anything major wrong.

Hello Sue,
Congratulations on your new iPhone 5c, and thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with Voice Memos.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Voice Memos app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

There is an "x" over my battery icon and even though it's plugged in it's still telling me that there is 0% battery life, what does this mean?

My macbook all of a sudden crashed. When I turned it back on, the fan was running, the battery icon had an "X" over it, and although the power cord is plugged in and the light on it is green, the battery life is still saying that it is 0%. What is wrong with my computer!?

Hi Jen.
It appears that the battery is perhaps faulty. If you go to  -> About This Mac -> More Info -> Power, could you please tell us the Full Charge Capacity (FCC) in mAh, and the Cycle Count please.
Also, you could try resetting the SMC, to see if that makes a difference.
Good luck

Accidentally put the ipod touch in the washer. I put in a bag of rice but now it won't charge...I can see the battery icon on the screen and was on charge of over 4 hrs...any suggestions?

accidentally put the ipod touch in the washer. I put in a bag of rice but now it won't charge...I can see the battery icon on the screen and was on charge of over 4 hrs...any suggestions?

If/when it is dry
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.

I'm using a Rocketfish USB to Lightning cable for powering my IPAD2. But when I plug it in the battery icon beeps and comes on then goes off...then goes on...then goes...all beeping every time. Its as if its being unplugged and plugged in over and over.

Its as if its being unplugged and plugged in over and over. It won't stop...and its not charging....just beeping. I've check connections. Any ideas?

- While charging try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if still problem restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
- However, I really think that the iPod has a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. If defective Apple should give you a refurbished iPod.

Computer won't sleep when lid shut and battery icon not showing and not charging

hello, I've just come back from holiday and went to turn on my mac air that was sitting at home, and it was flat so i put it on the charge and today i see that the light was still orange and then i notice that there is no battery icon and when I'm at the password stage to log into my account there is a black cross over the battery icon and then once logged on it disappears. And also when the lid is shut, nothing happens the light stays on the apple logo and the laptop doesn't sleep. also the lights for the key board aren't turning on, please help

Battery Icon Shows "18% available (plugged in, charging)" But Battery Does Not Charge

The PC does operate on the battery only, just fine (so far, as there is only 18% remaining).
The PC operates with AC plugged in also.
LED by AC input is amber (looks orange to me).
According to the User Guide that indicates charging.
Battery Check status is "OK"
I have had it on charge for over 12 hours and still at 18%.
When starting up, the battery icon shows charging movement then stops at a low level.
I measured the charger output at 20VDC (no load). Which is as specified.
I have tried all the suggestions about uninstalling and reinstalling the ACPI Complient Control Method.......etc.
Removing battery, shutting down and all the rest of suggestions.
No help.
I was told there was a BIOS update which I installed. (I'll post about that in another board). No help.
If I ever get this fixed it's going back to the vendor, Should not have this happen with less than 3 months since new.
Just got it back from repair for battery latch falling off. (Back plate was changed.)
Anything new would be appreciated.

Hi @xdellman,
Thank you for your query and realize how frustrating this is.
I gathered from your post you have tried most of the troubleshooting steps to no avail.
If you check the adapter do you notice any damaged or bent pins as this can cause charging issues?
Here are two links that may also assist you.

Top right battery icon does not show battery usage

So over the weekend I did not charge my iPhone, because the icon always said I had full battery life. I believed it because I never made a call, listened to music/video or surfed the net. It basically stayed in sleep in my pocket both days.
I get to work monday, pull it out to listen to music and I get the full screen battery icon showing the battery is dead with the plug and lightning bolt icons under it, then it turns off on its own. If I turn it on again, same deal.
I get home, hook it up to my PC and charge it, it works fine.
Today i've been listening to the iPod all day and surfing the net on EDGE and the battery icon in the top right shows full battery. To test I turned WIFI on for the past few hours to check and it's still showing full battery.
Basically just the battery icon in the top right isn't recognizing the battery being used. My Usage stats in Settings are also blank for Time Since Last Full Charge.
Background info:
Refurbished iPhone bought directly from ATT, came with 1.1.1, immediatly upgraded to 1.1.4
I've tried hard reboots.
I keep push e-mail and WiFi off at all times. WiFi comes on very rarely and only for short amounts of time.
I keep the phone connected to my PC overnight, but the PC does not go into any sort of sleep mode(ruling out not charging overnight)
I'm going to go home tonight and restore the phone to see if that helps, but I wanted to see if this is hardware related or software. This just started this weekend and i've had the phone for a few weeks now, and other than some short battery life at the beginning when I would keep wifi and push e-mail on a lot, or the random Safari closings, no other issues.

DOrk4L,
Have you tried re-calibrating the battery? To re-calibrate it, let the battery drain completely and then charge it fully. You should see correct battery usage after that.
Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.

Ipad won't respond to forced shutdown...spinning between battery icon and apple icon and flashing home screen

ipad wont respond to forced shutdown...spins between battery icon and apple icon and short flashes of the home screen

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

STUCK on white screen with battery icon in the middle with RED LIGHT

I have BB curve 8900 and my BB shutdown by itself yesterday and it wont start on again !
so i charged it the red LED start to show and white screen with battery icon in the middle it looks like empty battery, and stuck on it and sometimes it keeps spinning over and over again until it bcome black screen then it starts the same begining !
I tried the hard boot by taking the battery out for sometime and reinstalled it but it didn't work. I even try putting a different battery (friends battery) but still no joy..
and the main catch is if i try taking out the battery and plug the charger or connects it to the laptop it does the same thing without even any battery in it.
So is it really a Battery problem or the OS problem.?? (If its a OS problem, can u install it myself at home.?
Waiting for the reply
Thanks

Well, you need to do as suggested first.
Then, if not: If your BlackBerry stays powered off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life might be the blinking red LED light in the top corner. Nothing seems to wake it up and Desktop Manager doesn't recognize any device is connected.
1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
"c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Hit Next and Finish and you are well on your way to getting your Blackberry back to life. Congrats! Just don't disconnect anything and let the lengthy process finish completely.
NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device.
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
Just select the appropriate carrier and network type, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.

Treo 750 battery icon problem

Does anyone know how to fix the battery icon. I charge the phone for over 4 hours and it still shows an exclaimation point and 0% full. Phone seems to be working, is this a battery issue?
Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

Try a 10 second soft reset by taking out the battery for at least 10 seconds. This allows the device to power off completely, like a shutdown on a PC.
If that doesn't fix the issue, try a hard reset which will get the device back to factory condition. The hard reset will erase all data on the device so you will need to do a sync. to backup the data.

Ipod battery Icon

About 2 months ago my ipod up and stopped turning on. would'nt sync with anything nor would it charge with a external adapter. 4 days ago it suddenly turned on and i was like "WOW HOLY CRAP".
Everything is working fine minus one problem. the battery icon is always showing that it is either charging or charged. not a overly Huge Problem but really anoying as i cant see want its current chrage is at. It also displays what it thinks its doing. being charging or charged after it goes into sleep on the blank screen. everything else works fine. any ideas?
I did resset it multiple times and reformat it using itunes. niether worked

I also have this same problem. The thing thats strange is that I plug it into my computer or the wall adapter to charge and nothing happends BUT I'll plug it into my car's adpater and it works fine it charges and I could listen to my music. Strange....

I am getting a message "Not Charging" next to the battery icon.

When I plug my iPad into a wall socket, I get a ping as if it is charging but the message next to the battery icon says Not Charging. I have tried several different charging cables.

Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.
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.
