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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Hello

    (1) should purchase your battery if it will be put off for two weeks.

    (2) you need to calibrate your battery once a month

    (3) calibrate your battery takes care of this.

  • 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.

  • ICloud emails disappear at the time of my Macbook Pro when I delete a message from iCloud of one of them?

    I'm an old Geezer Mac, but a Newbie iCloud. I just put on my two Macbook Pro iCloud email addresses and access e-mail through Apple Mail on both computers. Here are my two questions:

    (1) iCloud emails disappear at the time of my Macbook Pro when I delete a message from iCloud of one of them?

    (2) if I move an e-mail message to iCloud Inbox Mail at Mail Archive on a Macbook, can I delete the message from the second Macbook without losing the archived message?

    Yes, that is what is supposed to happen with an IMAP e-mail account.

    If you move it to a folder on the Mac, not in the iCloud account, you can remove safely icloud.

  • Updated the MacBook pro 13 mid-2014 SSD?

    I have a macbook pro 13 mid-2014. Apple would upgrade my 128 GB to 512 GB SSD? If Yes, for how long?

    There are aftermarket solutions such as http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/macbook-pro-retina-display-faq macbook-pro-retina-display-13-how-to-up...

    I don't think that Apple upgrades an SSD, once the computer has been purchased and is beyond the date of return of 2 weeks.

    Note: I do not know how to do it yourself can affect your warranty. I see some posts where people say that to replace your original drive if you need to take Apple computer for other services.  For some things that apple might consider a guarantee like no or even flat our refuses to do something with a computer, even if beyond warranty if they have an indication any anyone, but Apple did something inside a computer, but nor will they upgrade a SSD - it is intended (unrealistic) buy you a SSD which will be to always meet your needs.

  • cleaning the dust inside my MacBook pro

    I opened the bottom of my MacBook Pro recently and was shocked to discover how the dust (and a few dead gnats) was there. It is mostly around the perimeter. Is there a way I can safely clean or do I need to take it to a professional?

    I apologize if this is a question repeated on this forum. I was just trying to look for an existing thread, but the guarded site bring me back 'post' a new question.

    Thank you.

    You can use a suction pipe.  Computer, please land on outer case.

    Compressed air can.

    You can google for "compressed air for cleaning mac.

  • Is it safe cover the keyboard on my MacBook Pro 15 2014 to?

    I love the Apple Magic keyboard, just feels better to type on for me.  I would like to use it with my MacBook Pro, which is 15 inches from mid-2014.  The magic keyboard perfectly well enough over the Mbps built at the keyboard, and I would use it like that.  However I noticed the bottom of the magic keyboard gets very hot after only a few minutes, so I figure that it can block the flow of cooling air.

    Is it safe cover the keyboard on my MacBook Pro with the magic keyboard or will lead it to damaged by heat?

    Thank you

    Not with another keyboard. You must use magic outside the computer keyboard. What you do may damage the built-in keyboard.

    The Snow Leopard is one of the more stable OS Ive ever used, but you won't have a lot of features.  Mavericks is in the Middle, has more features and is always quite stable. I would, however, try to reinstall El Capitan, or deleting some files to free up space.
