Why does my computer keep with 30% remaining battery?

Whenever my MacBook Air gets to between 20 to 30% of its power, it stops.  It is about 3 years old. Why is this happening?  It is used to stop only when he was close to 0%.

Thank you

Ian

  • Why does the url keep refreshing when I'm not in touch with her?

    I typed in the website (www.n2yo.com) and press return to open it. Unfortunately he keeps just acting like it is refreshing and not to open the Web page. That is to say the image to the left of the url continues flashing alternating with a square as the form, and the circle of progress and the line at the top just guard flashing and back to zero.

    It worked fine yesterday. Some parts of the Web site worked very well earlier today too. But now all the variations of a page in this site seems to do the same.

    Thoughts? Advice?

    I see the same thing during the visit of this website with Firefox and Google Chrome.

  • Why does my computer loudly play ads while we sleep?

    I keep my computer at night with my Inbox down to the toolbar and MSN down on the toolbar.  Almost every night a few utilities STRONG lights and awakens us.  I have to turn my speakers down every night!  Sometimes during the day, but at night it's really bad.  There is no image, only my screensaver on the screen.

    Great answer Gerry,... nice solution ;-)

    You have downloaded and installed a plugin for MSN by mistake at some point. As well as your antivirus running, run a program malware and spyware, deleting anything whatsoever that you have not installed.

    I do not use MSN, but if there is plugin options to this disable those you don't know that you do not use. Eventually get rid of them.

    See you soon,.

  • Why does'nt agree Firefox with BankID for the sarakahlaoui?

    When I try to use the BankID to reach my bank account in the sarakahlaoui, Firefox becomes crazy. It begins to open new pages over and over again and completely blocks the Firefox program. I have to use Ctrl Alt Delete to stop it and then Firefox is blocked.
    The BankID people tell me this isn't their fault a TI must be Firefox.
    You have a solution?

    Endless tabs opening can be caused by direct Firefox to open a file type that it cannot manage effectively. This article contains more information on this problem: Firefox opens several times empty tabs or windows after clicking on a link.

    I couldn't read the BankID site. Should I use a plugin, or exactly how it integrates with Firefox? If it does not add a plugin, make sure that it is set to "Always enable" so that it can be used in a transparent manner. You can set permissions on the page plugin modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, you can find plugins that integrate into sites, which you often put to 'Ask to activate', plugins that work in the background, working often better set to "Always enable" and plugins of mystery that have no apparent value, which can be set to 'never activate.

    Sometimes of plugin permission changes do not take effect in the current windows, but only in a new window.

  • Why does it appear marble with boxes of color text on some pages?

    Pages come normally, then after scrolling, the text becomes "garbled" and unreadable, as if the colors that make up the letters are not aligned correctly. Sometimes small colored boxes appear in the text. Highlighting the text seems back to readability. IE doesn't do this on my Windows 7 computer.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox by going to the Tools menu, select Options, and then selecting the Advanced tab. You will find a check box below the navigation area that deals with hardware acceleration. Uncheck the box that then restart your browser.

    If this is useful, you can try upgrading your graphics card driver to its latest version. We have seen the text rendering problems in Firefox due to the graphics card.

  • Why does my computer need a password to login? Was not necessary before.

    My monitor would not come after hitting the space bar. The PC was in mode 'sleep', so when I move the mouse or press a key on the monitor and the PC will wake. But not this time. I restarted my PC and a new (different, never seen before) opening page appeared. To the left was instruction click on my user name. To the right was a Director HP_. I clicked on that and open a password window. I've never set up a password, then I just hit enter. I was invited for a password again. Message 'Forgot your password?', retype your password.  I typed in admin, but that has not worked. I tried several passwords that I use for web access and the forums, etc. but I have not received the case at all. Several reboots, always the same new opening page and request a password. Before that, my PC would just open in my office, now I have this new blue sheet that need a password.

  • Why does my watch keep a break during a workout?

    I can't use the application of fitness on my watch, because it maintains a break by himself. How can I solve this problem?

    Hello

    The following steps may help:

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > General > enable the detection of wrist.
    • Also, make sure you wear your watch sufficiently well adjusted. If worn too loosely, your watch may believe that he had been removed from your wrist. With access code also allowed, it would then automatically locks. Performance of the sensor can also be affected by temporary changes or permanent on your skin, such as certain wrist tattoos.

  • Why does Firefox 5 keep runing whenever I start it control of compatibility for addons?

    I've just updated to Firefox 5 and now everytime I open the browser, it works an add on compatibility check, even if I have not installed all the new add ons. It also opens the "Welcome to Firefox 5' ('NEWS') each tab and never time.

    Try to remove compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder.

    Who should initiate the compatibility, but if all goes well he does return next time.

    If this does not work then try a new profile.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See basic troubleshooting: make a new profile:

    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

    If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • My computer keep beep, sayplug in battery adapt, it is plugged. What can I do?

    I can't stop my computer from a sound signal. He says to plug the battery, but it is connected to the computer. Its ruin my computer each time that it beep. WHA I can do? My battery does not charge.

    Hi AW-7,

    Something similar just happened to me.  The first time they fixed it, they have replaced the adapter and the problem is solved.  5 months later it started to happen again and this time they replaced the battery, the motherboard and the milling table (thanks to heaven, it is still under warranty).  Fortunately, thanks to the new adapters, battery started to load and the experience does not seem to damage it in any way (but you should keep your eyes on it anyway just in case).

    How they were able to say on my laptop - a Dell E1705 (other than just experience and common sense) was to go into the BIOS (starts, it should be a brief Flash on the screen telling you how to enter the BIOS setup or menu of the BIOS (usually F2) and check the battery information.  He showed that the power adapter 'unidentified' instead "90W" list which should be when it is working properly and that the battery was not complete and not charging well plugged.  They changed the motherboard and the roll the second time because it could also cause the adapter is not being recognized by the battery (or battery not the adapter to recognize the AC).

    The beep is caused by power and its configured settings to warn you of a low and critical battery condition.  In a normal situation, the computer will work right next to the power adapter and does not the battery (it is a way to help maintain the battery life is to run periodically and refill if we leave normally plugged in most of the time).  If you remove the batttery entirely, the laptop will power?  If this isn't the case, it is certainly at least the adapter or the motherboard.  Eventually the battery will get if low, that he's going to sleep or hibernation, or the system stops (you should shut down normally before him to cold shutdown like that).  If If, then I expect the tone to go further because it will detect is no longer a low battery charge, because there is no battery - but then you'll want to be sure to use either a battery backup UPS, or at least a surge protector otherwise already in place because if you lose the laptop battery will crash hard and this is not good for her.

    I'm using 32 bit Vista Business SP2 and in Control Panel / sounds / Sounds there is an option for low battery alert. The default to have this. In this situation, you can turn off to avoid the beep (even though I'm at a loss for which is why "it messes up your computer" when it does like all he must do is beep). In addition, you can go into Control Panel / Power Options, click the plan settings and click on battery.  It will provide you with levels of low battery and critical battery and you provide measures to be taken in such a case.  If you are unable to operate the system without battery and it is so weak that the alerts began, you probably fell to 11-5% remaining.  You can adjust actions to nothing for bass and stop to criticism that 5% is about as close as you want to get to the point where you can hang.  Then, you just need to wait until it is repaired and the appropriate parts are replaced.

    Even if you have still some life in it, it is best to contact the manufacturer (they the some have the right parts) or a computer of reputable workshop to get a good diagnosis (perhaps by phone at first), a determination of what must be fixed, the applicable fees, schedule, if it is still under any kind of warranty , and what needs to be done in which order of repair.  They can find the adapter is OK and it is just the battery (or vice-versa or two or more).  But that's essentially where you need start.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
