Will running a car in the Acc position for to long make the battery die or just need to be recharged?

Automotive batteries are simply electrical storage devices, meaning that they store electrical energy so you don't have to crank the engine by hand to get it started.
Every time the engine starts, the charging system recharges the battery. Batteries can go through MANY charge/discharge cycles, but automotive batteries do not do well with DEEP DISCHARGE.
If the battery isn't too old it should take a charge quite well, you could even jump-start the engine (make sure you ALWAYS connect Red to positive) then drive the vehicle around for a while and let the alternator recharge the battery for you.
You PROBABLY haven't done any permanent damage unless the battery was already getting old and tired.

What engine sound will you get if your alternator is gone or going?
if your alternator is gone or going your car will start and then eventually just stop running because your battery has gone dead. it typically will not make any sound when your engine is not running because of a dead battery.
Why would a car be completely dead with no lights electronics or ignition after it was just running fine?
The only thing that comes to mind in a situation where a car that was running a short time ago and now is COMPLETELY DEAD is a failure of the battery or the primary cables/connections. I'd begin by checking the cable connections at the ends on the battery. The ends at the battery are more prone to failure than the other ends, but check both ends of the cables starting at the battery side. One would be wise to do this with caution, or, if lacking sufficient expertise, with some help.
Jump the car or get a new battery?
If the battery is defective get a new battery. If you just left something on and ran it down, charge the battery and keep going.

Can you take the battery out of your laptop when im at home and just pulg in to an outlet so you can consever your battery since the majority of the time you are at home using thelaptop?
When I plug in my laptop, it does not use the battery to run the computer. Instead, it uses the wall outlet to run the computer and to recharge the battery. So, by leaving my battery in my laptop when it is plugged in, I am recharging my battery and not running it down. If you take the battery out of your laptop and do not recharge it, it will not last long. The computer batteries that I know about can go from 2 to 8 hours without being recharged.

What would make a car discharge besides the battery and alternator?
All of a vehicle's electicity using devices drain/discharge the battery, but during the time the engine is running, the alternaror is supposed to keep the battery recharged. If the engine IS running, but the alternator is NOT providing enough current to recharge the battery then ALL of the electricity using devices discharge the battery. Some of the "onboard" computers draw some slight amount of power even when the ignition switch is off, but they do not use enough power by themselves to significantly discharge the vehicle battery. Any electricity using device which SHOULD be turned off when the ignition is off, BUT... which due to some fault [such as a "stuck" relay for example] that keeps that device still turned on when the engine is not running and the key is off will also discharge the battery. Or, just leaving the ignition switch on without the engine running, or the headlights or parking lights on, or sound equipment left on will contribute to discharge of a vehicle's battery.

Can lithium batteries be recharged?
Yes, LBS lithium LiFePO4 batteries can be recharged easily and fast with LBS battery chargers. These chargers are ISO 9001 compliant, meeting all US standards. You can choose the voltage of the charger you want based on the electric capacity of the battery you have, and the desired charging time. The more Amps/hour, the faster your Charging time. It just depends on how long you want to charge your batteries for your needs.Source: Lithium Battery Store
Should you let your computer battery die before recharging?
No, completely discharging a lithium battery will damage it significantly reducing its ability to hold charge. However a lithium battery that is discharged to just a few percent of completely discharged before being recharged will get more successful recharge cycles than one that is recharged much earlier. Its a somewhat tricky balancing act and I have destroyed a few batteries myself by not stopping the discharge soon enough.
