• Extend the life of the battery

  What is the best way to extend the life of the battery of my laptop? It seems that different sites have different recommendations.

  (1) should take you your battery whenever your laptop using power? Or only after only 2 weeks of all continuous power (like the HP website seems to recommend)?

  (2) how many times should I condition the battery?

  (3) when you use your battery, should be completely empty before recharging again to capacity?

  Thank you very much! All tips are very much appreciated.

• How to extend the life of my MacPro 2006 1.1?

  I'm hoping to extend the life of my 2006 MacPro1.1, whose startup disk has developed a Squeak. I have received conflicting advice from vendors on a possible solution and would like knowledgeable opinions.

  Here is a partial configuration:

  A Macintosh 500 GB HDD with 87 GB available.

  A hard disk of 1 TB with 332 GB

  A hard disk of 2 TB with 1.3 to

  I'm running OS X 10.6.8

  Is 6 GB memory

  My Time Machine backup measures about 1.8 to

  Option 1. A local store recommended I have delete the 2 TB drive and restore the backup any here, which makes my new startup disc. My concern is that there is very little free space on this drive and an already slow computer would become even slower.

  Option 2. A seller of phone encouraged me to replace my 500 GB hard drive with an SSD, which according to him would be much faster than what I have now.

  You choose Option 1 or 2, or another altogether?

  Thank you very much

  Peter

  The hard drive containing the boot the Mac volume has failed and must be replaced. An SSD is an interesting option.

• Extend the life battery?

  Hey everybody,

  I am curious about the batteries in the execution of X220T and how do I extend my battery life; I don't want to not increase the duration of each charge, but rather keep it in relatively good condition 2-3 years on the road. What kinds of things will help or harm the health of my battery? I never interruption fee until he tells me is finished loading, and I try to remove the battery every time I use it plugged in for long periods of time. Do these effective things, or am I just kidding myself and put unnecessary strain on the battery latch?

  Thank you all for your help in advance!

• Extend the life of battery MacBook Pro 15 "(Mi-2014) & overall health"

  Good day people.

  Yesterday, I bought a used MBP. Data sheet:

  Model name: MacBook Pro

  Model identifier: MacBookPro11, 2

  Processor name: Intel Core i7

  Processor speed: 2.2 GHz

  Number of processors: 1

  Total number of Cores: 4

  (By heart) L2 Cache: 256 KB

  L3 Cache: 6 MB

  Memory: 16 GB

  Cycles: 130

  Other than a few scrapes and scratches here and there of General wear, the machine seems to be in fantastic condition and beyond, after recovering pretty well my old exact configuration via Time Machine, is a blisteringly fast on my MBP improvement mid-2009 Core 2 Duo.

  Now I want some tips to make sure that this machine takes me six years (wishful thinking? Eh_bien made a last, but its GPU is running out...), so the questions:

  (1) leave the unit plugged in and on costs all night?

  (2) drain all the way down and then recharge it fully? I have been informed by a trusted friend that it is a good idea to keep more than 20% battery charge if and when at all possible.

  (3) let him fall asleep on his own, or put it to sleep manually? I prefer the latter, at this point.

  (4) I use a USB Bluetooth receiver mouse + keyboard, and on top of that eternal display connected via Thunderbolt (can use HDMI also, at this point, still enough old VGA-> Firebolt adapter); should I disconnect these when the machine is put to sleep? It seems they attract a fair amount of power (I did a test last night to see how long the machine hard on battery when it is connected to these; do now, and it's going strong).

  I'll probly have some questions based on the answers to the above, but thanks in advance for any thoughts/input.

  More precisely:

  1. the batteries cannot overload due to the protection circuits.

  2. do not drain so dead it can be avoided.

  3. the more he does not sleep because of the long 'wait till sleep' over the screen is used.  Except that no difference in my opinion.

  4. all attached components will require some even if inactive power monitoring.  Your just tire test power unnecessarily in my opinion.

• Sansa Clip: Loading screen saver: can manually enable us to extend the life of the screen?

  What charge the Sansa Clip: after an hour, the screen turns white (a screen saver, I guess).

  I would like to activate the screen saver immediately, to extend the duration of the display.  Is it possible to do?

  Or maybe in a version of firmware future, so a sequence button turn it on.

  Unless the life of the screen is much longer than the lifetime of the unit in general...

  Thanks for your time.

  As far as I know, you can't do it manually now.

  This is the reason why some people with an adapter for recharging: when charging via AC, the display shuts off after setting the time of the backlight of your display.

  Indeed, even if it bugs some of us, it is likely that display time of 1 hour during USB charging will not significantly affect the ultimate lifecycle of the screen, in the end; If I remember correctly, the screen has a life expectancy of 5000 hours or something like that (sorry, it's been a while) - it is 208 days of fulltime show all day/night long.  By the time you reach this point, probably, if ever, the battery life may have been reached, or you probably may have gone to another player, as technology improves over time.  But it's all unique to each user (if you are more rare than the user who guard 8 hours per day, life of the screen display will be reached about 1.7 years; if you use your player lot every day and are charging every day, charging via AC could save you 365 hours of projection of the time per year (, the equivalent of almost a month of 1.7 years screen time), and so you can recharge via AC just to cover as much as possible.  (More realistic, if your screen is on for 2 hours a day, which is still a lot, unless you really keep your screen on a lot, the screen should last for about 7 years or more - think where you will be and what technology you are using maybe at this time.)

• Can I extend the life of my unopened for my deskjet 722C HP ink jet cartridges?

  I use my 'old' printer HP deskjet 722C with a Windows 7 system.  I'm afraid that HP can stop making the cartridges for this printer because it is old (I bought it in 1999).  It still works perfectly & I would like to continue to use it until the support for Windows 7 ends in 2020.

  Is there an expiration on HP cartridges for this printer?  If so, is it possible I can extend shelf life in the way that I store them?

  Because without opening it (still in packaging) cartridges then I suggest somewhere cool and dry, rather than in the fridge. 8 years is long if, then, of course, there is no guarantee on what condition the ink would be at that time. As they say, nothing lasts forever! (sounds like a song title

  I would say just to buy on an as need basis. They should still be available for purchase for some time that there is still a lot of people out there with compatible printers.

  BTW, there is a link below with the specifications for the cartridge HP45 (has any info on maintenance & storage)

• Satellite C660: How can I extend the life of the battery of the laptop?

  Hello world

  I will be grateful if someone can help me answer my question, how do I extend my battery life... I don't want to say how many hours it can operate my laptop, but I mean to last for many years without change in its performance.

  Some of my friends told me to remove the battery so I use alternating current, in fact I heard a lot of discussions on this subject and I really need a specific answer.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You use your laptop most of the time to battery power?

  95% of the time of work, I use my laptop on the power supply. To be honest I have never removed battery and battery operation is still almost 2 hours.
  I use from time to time for computer laptop battery power. I leave the laptop running until the battery is almost empty. What you want to do?

  By the way: what model of laptop do you have?

• How to extend the life of battery U410?

  Hey guys,.

  Just buy an IdeaPad U410 a few days ago. I tested the battery life, and it's pretty decent after uninstalling Smart Update (5-6 hours of occasional use).

  However, due to my previous experience in the use of computers, Toshiba and Acer laptops, I'm afraid that self-government will reduce very quickly if I continue to load. How you guys deal with this problem? Is it possible to get another 5-6 hours of battery after, say, 1 year of owning this notebook?

  (And I apologize if this is a stupid question, but I don't really know much about computers, haha)

  Thank you!

  Please, open energy management, go into the settings of battery and check optimize for life. This will require less capacity but the battery life would greatly increase the laptop.

• Want to extend the life of the battery in 5 days

  Hello

  Maybe it's more than a request for a new feature for the Apple Watch.

  I still need to use my fitbit when going hiking in the desert, because I can not connect my steps because of the battery of the watch.

  What I want to do is to disable all the functions of the watch with the exception of the accelerometer to connect my steps.  I also remove the band and put it in a special wet belt clip case to protect it.  I hope that in this limited function, I could get 5 days of steps out of the appliance before the battery wore out.

  Anyone know if this is possible?

  Thank you

  -Tom

  Hi Tom

  It is not currently possible.

• Is it possible to extend the life of a disc hard once he dies?

  So like a month ago I had this problem: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/operating-system-not-found-error-when-starting-up/cc6dc0fc-204b-496f-a52f-1ae8c74b79bf

  The guy said the hard drive died. The one I used lived for 4 years. Is it possible to prolong her life even when he dies, or I have to call Toshiba to replace?

• How to extend the life of a film?

  I am new Director and have not been able to get my full video to play. When I publish the .exe, the video will play only 32 000 frames. However, it is about 350 000 frameworks. I was able to extend its length, but it will only allow me to choose the 32 000 as a thin frame. Please advise...

  You must add a script to the script to frame channel by telling the playback head to loop through a single image or series of images. If extend you your video sprite this image below script it will play until the end.

  If you open your library Palette (menu: window-> library Palette) and navigate the palette for Navigation behaviors using the library drop-down list at the top left of the palette, you can drag 'Loop to go' or 'Hold the current Frame' behaviour in your script in the score lane (channel immediately above where the head of reading and chassis numbers) are visible)

• How can I extend the life of my beloved iPod nano?

  I have a 2nd generation iPod nano that still works perfectly, but when I connect it to my Macbook it does not appear in iTunes and so I can't edit the songs on it. I guess it's because the iPod is old and is no longer compatible with the operating system (Yosemite) or the version of iTunes, I (12.3), but can I do about it? The iPod still works, I still love it and it has sentimental value :-/

  It should still work with the latest version of iTunes.  I have an iPod "classic" old 3rd gen (since about 2003) and it still works fine with the current and current iTunes OS X.

  It was working before iTunes 12.x and immediately stopped connection when you updated to the latest version of iTunes or OS X?

  When you connect it to your Mac, look at the screen of the iPod.  What he say or do, just after connect you?

  You have a way to try with more of a docking cable, in which case the cable connector is getting worn out?

• Goes on a trip - how to extend the battery life of my computer?

  So, I'm going on a trip soon on a bus and I want to be able to bring my computer, but it is running out of battery very fast. How can I save energy?

  You could:

  Looking out the window or talk to your neighbor instead of using the computer in the bus.

  Leave your computer at home.

  Buy a new battery.

  Take the power supply with you in case the bus has power ports for each or a few pairs of seats.

• Information about the life of the battery of Equium A100-306?

  Hello!
  I have a Toshiba Equium A100-306 & am pleased with it.
  Of course, I want to protect my investment & having been, in the past, concerned about battery 'memory', I was happy to find that this machine works with a battery lithium-ion - & everywhere I look I see words to the effect that:

  "There is no memory and no regular bike not needed to extend the life of the battery.

  I also found: a lithium-ion battery provides 300-500 charge/discharge cycles. The battery prefers a partial rather than complete discharge. Frequent full discharges should be avoided when possible. Instead, charge the battery more often or use a larger battery. There is no memory problem when unexpected expenses. »

  Except, that is, Toshiba (citing the manual) say: "at least once a month, run the computer on battery power until the battery is completely discharged, then discharge the battery."
  Then, they suggest "once a week" to ensure maximum capacity.
  You will understand why I am confused? I would really appreciate someone stating the above.
  Thanks for your time. Cheers, Peter.

  Hello

  Perhaps they have not properly updated their textbooks? I Don t know, but is the only thing I can tell you, that new technologies in mobile systems such as yours are very modern and I think toshiba had a cool technology into their machines, so that systems of remain "without worry".

  I suggest you read this article on the type battery that is in your machine so that you can understand the best technology:

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_ion

  Hope I could give you an idea...
