IMac :: Faster Video Card/higher Power Drain?
Mar 23, 2009Just wondering, if I were to go for a higher specd Imac with a more powerful video card (thinking possibly the refurb with the 8800), would this be a significantly bigger energy drain, or does the card not kick in to full force unless a task requires it to do so?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMacBook :: Turn On It Without Using The Power Button?
Jun 11, 2012I have a white 2008 model MacBook. Due to some unfortunate tampering with the circuits under the right command key on the built in keyboard, a lot of the keys and the power button are now effectively dead. I'be ordered a replacement top case, but was wondering if I could, in the meanwhile, somehow turn the laptop on. I'd prefer to do this without opening it up, though I could if that's the only way.
I read in another thread, can't find the link now, that disconnecting the battery, connecting mains, then connecting the battery would turn it on, but that doesn't seem to work for me.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Will Not Turn On Or Respond To Power Button
Apr 17, 2012My MacBook pro (15" unibody, non-removable battery) will not turn on. The battery claims to be fully charged. The computer will not respond to the power button in any way. I had turned it on previously by draining the battery completely of any charge (draining power, then pressing and holding down power button for 60 seconds). When this occurred the computer booted up and ran fine. However, when I closed the lid, it turned off immediately, never to return. I'm wondering if this is a problem with the battery, or if it's a problem with the logic board.

MacBook Pro :: Display Would Not Turn On After Pressing Power Button
Jun 6, 20141.turn into black screen after running for about 15 mins, but the system is still running because the keyboard is still functional. After reboot, i record the log as below, it shows that it is a GPU Panic.
2. display would not turn on after pressing the power button but can still hear the apple start up chime and the system keep running with the screen off.
3. after erased the hard drive and re-installed Mavericks. Under a new installed system, it can run normally for about 1 day, after that especially after a shut down or restart, the problems above came back.
I am currently working in Thailand but I have no plan to go back to the US in a short period of time. I brought the laptop to the local apple service, they said it is certainly the logic board or GPU failure and the parts need to be replaced. The cost of the replacement is around half of the price that I paid for this laptop.

Power Mac :: G3 Won't Turn On?
Apr 2, 2012Recently, I was using my powermac (About 1-2 weeks ago) and I went on vacation. I came back and it won't turn on. Everything's plugged in, and the power buttons and lights on the mobo light up. I can hear the HD spin up, and begin to read. But, I don't get any video. I've read that it could be the battery and so i replaced it, but it still won't turn on. I've reset the CUDA, installed different RAM, took out expansion cards, but it still won't turn on. Also, when I press the power button it immediately shuts off, which it never used to do. I usually have to wait at least 3-4 seconds of holding it down.

MacBook Air :: Battery Drain When Off?
Nov 4, 2009I had my MBA rev B turned of for 3-4 weeks and when I turned it on today it was at 40% power. Is that normal that it to loose that much battery when turned off, are you seeing the same number? I know when in sleep mode that there is a pretty high loss even over night but turned off I thought it was minimal.
Seems higher than my previous Mac laptops.

Jul 24, 2008I recently purchased a Power Mac G5 Dual 2GHz from ebay. I tested the computer a couple of weeks ago when I first got it, but wasn't able to actually set it up with all of my music gear until last night. I installed Logic Studio and a driver for my firewire audio interface and started downloading all of the updates. While downloading the updates the computer just turned off. I wasn't in the room, but when I came back in it was totally off. I tried to turn it back on by using the power button in the front and it won't turn on. It clicks once then clicks again a few seconds later, but no light and no power. Everything else that is plugged into the same power strip turns on. I reset the PMU, and even the graphics card just to make sure. I still get nothing. I have exhausted apples support page, and I don't know what else to do.

MacBook Pro :: Drain Mbp Battery Or Keep Charging?
Oct 2, 2010I'm wondering, what is better for prolonging your macbook pro's battery life, is it
1. drain the battery, recharge it fully, plug out the source, drain it, and recharge it again
or
2. keep charging it whenever you have a power source and never drain it?
I've always been doing #2 because I use the laptop a lot and home and it would just be a hassle to keep switching the power source on and off.
But then I heard that it's bad if you overcharge your battery, so once in awhile I try to do #1. Last night, though, my friend told me it's bad for your battery if you drain it all the time.
So which is, in fact, good or bad for your mbp?
MacBook Pro :: Drain The Battery To About 50% Every 2-3 Days?
Nov 16, 2010I recall reading that if I keep my MBP plugged to the wall all the time ( I do), I should drain the battery to about 50% every 2-3 days, to keep the battery's juices flowing.
Personally I don't have the patience to do this all the time. Is this step really that important?
What are your thoughts?

View 24 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: What Happens When You Drain Battery Completely?
May 19, 2010With mine, when I drain it completely, it just shuts down, i.e. it doesnt go to sleep mode as there is no pulsating light on the front right corner. Once I start charging, however, and I can again switch it on, it resumes where I left off, so the computer has saved the contents of the memory onto the hard disk. On my SR MBP it was different, it would actually go to sleep mode when the batteries were almost completely drained.
View 22 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Is This Normal Battery Drain?
Jul 12, 2010After about two hours my battery on my 13" mbp is at 35% from 100%.
All i did was some web browsing and about half an hour of video chatting on ichat. My brightness is at halfway.
is this normal drain? the specs say 10 hours, but when i first got it it lived for about 6 hours, which was plenty for me.
i've noticed recently that my battery has been acting funny, i'm thinking it may be because of my heavy audio work with garage band and reason.
the app coconut battery says my battery capacity is at 94% so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I've had this laptop for about 3 months, and i've properly calibrated it twice.
