The battery life of MacBook Pro 15 "(released mid-2015)

How long should my MacBook Pro 15 '' (2015) battery last? " Im getting about a little less than 5 hours and the normal battery status. I turned off Bluetooth and set it automatically adjusts the brightness. Shouldn't I be living out my battery?

It depends on what you are doing. If you write just a text document, 5 hours is too short. If you navigate all the time and visit the Web site with a lot of Flash or video content, it is good enough.

  • How to optimize the battery in my MacBook Pro?

    Hey,.

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro 2015 13 inches and I love it so far! Mainly, I bought it for use at the University since I am a student in Architecture and I was told that the MacBook Pro are great for this.

    Anyway, as I always take careful care of my business, I want to know how to maximize the battery in my MacBook Pro? Is it true that whenever I have my MacBook Pro connected to the charger and it reaches the max (100%), the charger stops charging? Also, should I turn off or put to sleep when I'm not using it?

    I have read online some tips, but I want to just make sure that all of its clear. I have a lot of questions to be honest, but if someone can give a brief explanation I would really appreciate it!

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Josetroti:

    When you leave your MacBook Pro is plugged, it stops to load automatically when it reaches 100%. There's no need to unplug it.

    I turn on my Macbook Pro in the morning and left running unless I'm going out for a few hours in this case, I if it turned off.

    In the night I turned off it. I don't use mode 'sleep', as with the SSD climbing boots Macbook very quickly. But that's just my preference.

    I heard that if you leave your computer connected permanently, a once a month, you must let sink to about 30% and then recharge.

    It is not good to let it drop below 10%.

  • What is the best OS for Macbook pro 13.3 mid-2010

    What is the best OS for Macbook pro 13.3 mid-2010.

    I am currently using OS X El captian and it's extremelly slow. Please tell us which is the best OS for her to be able to function properly.

    Thank you very much

    specifications:

    2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB

    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.

    See you soon,.

  • How low should I leave the battery on my MacBook Pro before I recharge

    I have a new MacBook Pro and I know that once a month I'm supposed to leave the battery discharged.  But how low should it let?

    Don't let the battery discharge to 0. You must load whenever it is convenient. There is no battery memory as the old batteries so you can load any level of discharge.

  • Apple will replace the battery for my MacBook Pro to the retina when in-store?

    Hi, the battery must be replaced on my MacBook Pro of retina, but I don't want to send it and pick up within 2 weeks. They will replace when I'm in the store? The guarantee also ended 2 weeks ago that I'd be able to show them, and they would be understanding and do it for free? Personally, I think that £125 for a battery is charges and it's a shame that it's over 2 weeks ago. Thank you!

    well - it depends on the discrection of one you get. I'd be inclined to say "no, they can't do it for free. As for how long that will take, well. again, you will need to enter and take a go-genius bar. What I can say is to be nice and polite, and maybe you could get lucky

  • How do I know if I can change the battery on a macbook pro myself?

    Can I change my battery. There is no guarantee.

    Hello. You can replace the battery yourself by following the instructions in the link below. If your MacBook doesn't look like the one illustrated in the provided link, go to your Apple Store closest to have the battery replaced by Apple (you can always have the battery replaced by an Apple Store after your warranty is over, you will just need to pay out of pocket for repairs).

  • Did not use the MacBook Pro 15 "retina mid 2015 in a month

    Hey guys,.

    The title says it all, does not use my top of the line macbook pro retina 15 "with amd r9 370 x in a month and im afraid if this miight have damaged the battery.

    the last time that I used it the battery was 100% until I stopped him.

    Thank you guys. BTW, the cycle of the battery I have is 6

    Apple recommends that the computer has on a charge of 50% and the computer turn off (not asleep) when it is unused for a long period of time. I don't think the fact that you left it with a load of 100% is going to be a big problem. But if you let him sleep in now the computer have exhausted the battery and put the computer into hibernation. You may need to load for a short period until he starts if this is the case.

  • I can't watch the airplay for HDTV icon mirrored on MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid 2010)

    I can view the icon airplay on MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid 2010) for HDTV (trying to film on TV laptop project).

    Need help please, I checked my network on Apple TV, updated and verified system preferences and downloaded the demo of AirParrot2.app (this project DID on tv via AirParrot but the movie was uneven and deferred on the tv then sound was not lined up).

    Hi csaszardesign,

    Please visit Apple support communities.

    It seems that you are not able to use AirPlay Mirroring of your MacBook Pro (15-inch, mid 2010) to your Apple TV. Some use AirPlay to display video from your Mac to a TV high definition, looks like AirPlay Mirroring requires an Early 2011 or later MacBook Pro:

    Required to use AirPlay

    If you go to the Apple menu > System Preferences, click on monitors and do not see the option to "See the mirroring of the options in the menu bar when it is available," your Mac does not meet these requirements.

    Minimum requirements if your Mac and Apple TV are on the same network:

    Minimum requirements for peer-to-peer AirPlay, which allows visitors to quickly and easily connect their Mac or an iOS device to your Apple TV without getting the passwords and connection to the network Wi - Fi:

    For help AirPlay of Quicktime or Safari for your Apple TV, see the instructions and the "Get help" section in use AirPlay to display video from your Mac to a TV high definition.

    For the reflection of your Mac on your HD TV, I suggest you to use the TV as an external display by using the Mini DisplayPort connection. The information on these links can help with getting started:

  • What is the battery life expected to a new stack in a Mac Book Pro?

    What is the battery life expected to a new stack in a Mac Book Pro?  I am running OS X El Capitan10.11.3

    I just had my battery replaced, and today, I looked at that and I got 7 1/2 hours on a charge.  This doesn't seem much.

    Apple announced 8-9 hours on the 15 "MacBook Pro 2010. This is an extremely optimistic number in light, ideal operating conditions.

    Your 7.5 hours is fine.

  • The battery life of the IPad Pro

    I've had my IPad Pro nearly a month now, I am very disappointed with the battery life.  Can I get a battery completely charged at 10:00 and 15:00

    She is drained down to 19%.  I only surf the web and play some games. I disabled all the elements that would drain the battery, even possibility dimmed the screen.

    is this normal, it is far from the 10 hours, I also cam fill a small external change to the rear of the unit. What should I do? I had apple do a diagnostic check and they said there was no problem detected.

    Hard to say... I had the iPad over the years and the Pro is the best yet.  I use mine extensively, mostly to surf the Internet and check news sites, not be interested in the games. I also use it for photo editing. A typical use days could be between 4 to 6 hours and when not in use, it is in standby.  I never feed power off.

    I also have mine recharge every night, regardless of the status of the battery.  After a full days use, the status of the battery down from 100 percent to about 45 percent.  When the rear of the load box gets hot, when you use it, it's cool.

    It was an Apple store or a retailer that took place the diagnostic practice?

    I would say that your battery life isn't typical.
