MacBook Pro battery (early 2015)

Before you start - Yes, I already read the articles provided by Apple about how I should take care of the battery of my camera. My only concern is now is it nice to put on 100% standby and plugged? I don't use it much everyday, just minimum of probably around 2-3 hours and 5-6 vertices. What I'm doing lately is unplug the charger until I put on standby then plugged while waking up, I plugged it in while I use it then unplug the charger again before you put it to sleep and so on and so forth. Is it safe? I'm doing it correctly? Thank you.

You can leave the MBP connected to the charger essentially all the time with damage to the battery, because OSX control the load and will not allow the battery to be overcharged.

HOWEVER, at least once a month, use the MBP with battery only on 40% charge level.  Lithium-ion batteries require periodic "exercise" to maintain long battery life.

The other fundamental rule is to avoid draining the battery until it stops the MBP.  That will shorten the battery life.

Ciao.

    We have no way of knowing exactly what you have tried that doesn't work unless you tell us. A flashing question mark boot means that your Mac is unable to locate a startup disk to boot from.

    If you haven't tried... start your Mac holding the key Option. That should launch the boot window manager have been, you can select the startup disk, and then click on restart.

    If this does not help, you will need to take the Mac for the service.

  • Spots on the screen from macbook pro 13 early 2015

    I am from Nepal and bought Macbook pro 13 Futureworld last year. I noticed stains and spots on Macbook pro early 2015. Its the apple care warranty. I would like to know if it is covered by the apple care warranty or not. With this question, I also think questions of wifi signal that falls and has bad reception. Windows 10 Hp431 works very well, Iphone5 too connects well to the router and on speedtest shows better resistance than that of the macbook pro 13.

  • MacBook Air 11 '' Early 2015: normal sleep/standby consumption?

    Hello

    I can't help thinking that the power consumption of my MacBook Air 11 '' (early 2015) while "asleep" has increased lately - battery loses about 20% in 24 hours of sleep. "

    So, here's my question: is a loss of battery charge about 1% by standard time?

    I should add that I can see log files that the appliance has been in "Deep sleep" during sleep, as you can see here:

    05.01.16 21:15:34, 000 kernel [0]: ARPT: 7953.437734: IOPMPowerSource information: onWake, SleepType: deep Idle, "ExternalConnected": No, "TimeRemaining": 4370.

    I've already changed parameter of power management that the device should enter mode standby after 4 minutes of sleep (see below), which he seems not to do (always).

    In the terminal, the command of g - pmset we get the following results:

    Active profile:

    Battery - 1 power *.

    Power supply - 1

    In use:

    standbydelay 240

    Watch 1

    halfdim 1

    hibernatefile/var/vm/drag

    PowerNap 0

    gpuswitch 2

    disksleep 10

    sleep 2 (sleep prevented by AddressBookSourceSync)

    autopoweroffdelay 14400

    hibernatemode 3

    autopoweroff 1

    ttyskeepawake 1

    displaysleep 2

    acwake 0

    lidwake 1

    BTW: I do not think that the entry "prevented... sleep." "really means the unit can not sleep - he lay in mode 'deep sleep '.

    Thanks for the ideas.

    Thank you all for the many responses (SCNR)

    Just to give me a follow-up (perhaps this helps someone in the future):

    After a thorough analysis of the pmset g rawlog and console output that I discovered that my MacBook Air just don't go 'Deep rest' in mode 'Sleep' after the designated 'standbydelay'. Deleting the file drag (var/vm/drag) has not helped. What helped, however, was a reinstall of Mac OS X recovery (without removing the hard drive).

    Since then, consumtion of power during the sleep returned to a much better behavior: during the first three hours of sleep, consumption is about 3%. Subsequently, the system performs a wake of maintenance for switch in the standby mode, and after that which consumes almost no more energy. So, after 24 hours, the overall loss of battery charge are still 3%.

    I'm happy again.

  • Wich USB 3.0 / 3.1 PCMCIA USB controller works best in a macbook pro 17 "early 2011?

    Hi people,

    why I had this idea before?

    I have an available PCMCIA slot in my macbook pro and would therefore be an opportunity to put in a USB 3.0 or (if already available) a 3.1 USB controller card.

    ... but: one who works best with EL CAPITAN? and with the SIERRA to come?

    did someone knows with this interesting topic?

    This product solves the problem:

    I bought a controller card - 3.0 - nano tech on eBay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/262393441049

    It works very well plug & play under sierra on a macbook pro in early 2011.

    but nowhere, a controller 3.1 must be found.

  • Should I buy the MacBook Air 13 (Early 2015)?

    Hello everyone.

    I currently own a Chromebook, product that I hope, I sell to help me get the MacBook Air 13. The purpose of the switch is the requirement for me to have a computer (with an operating system in its own right) that I can use for computer science stuff. However, I'm worried about the MacBook Air 13 (Early 2015; the 8 GB of RAM, 128 GB SSD model) is how obsolete, and its durability. I not looking for a laptop that will last me a year and performance degradation that are present or any downgrade of the user experience. I expect a computer that will give me at least 3 years of service and still work without any problems (excluding the damage caused to the user, but assume that I am a responsible person).

    Any kind of help is appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Carlos

  • What's wrong with my Macbook Pro battery?

    So this is sort of related to the question I asked yesterday

    Do not charge the MacBook Pro battery

    But fundamentally there is no light on my charger and the battery bar was at 2% for a whole day saying is "do not load" I have even if it is turned off and disconnected last night and it didn't lose charge. It is under the battery bar

    What could be going on with her? Battery health status shows 'Normal' and 'Remaining Charge (mAh)' keep ranging from 85 to 87 and he is down to 75 last night and now it is back to 85. I get a new charger because the one I have is a no knockoff Apple and I think he could have done something to my Macbook, but there is a problem with the battery itself too?

    When you get a real Apple charger that works, then you can start the battery, if problem if it does not work properly. In the meantime, it would be useless to pursue this avenue.

  • My macbook pro battery will not hold a charge

    My macbook pro battery will not hold a charge. I took in an Apple reseller and claimed him install a new battery. He said that my battery was still good. I asked him to install a new battery just to have a brand new machine. With the new battery installed, the computer still will not hold a charge for very long. I got the Apple dealer and he ran several tests without conclusive results. I always have a laptop that will not hold a charge and must be connected to use for any period of time. Can anyone offer a solution? Thank you.
