Is it better to leave my Macbook plugged in most of the time or not?

I've read different answers on the internet. Some people say that keeping your macbook plugged in is like not using the battery at all. Others say that keeping it plugged in most of the time is bad for the battery, for various reasons, either it makes the battery too hot or the constant charging and discharging during use is somehow detrimental. Everybody agrees that you should use it purely on battery at least once in a while, and many say that one should do a full discharge and charge once a month or so, to "exercise" the battery.
My question can be restated as: What is the optimal charging schedule for battery life, assuming that I have constant access to an electric outlet?

Do not let the MacBook or other battery powered Apple products run their battery flat.
To do so will damage the longer-term life and deep-cycle charge capabilities of them...
There is information about general battery and product health in the Apple support articles.

You can check the System information section for battery and charging status, also note
the charge cycles and life or health of the battery there.
Good luck & happy computing!

  • Is it better to leave my macbook plugged it.... when.... read more!

    Hi guys,
    do you think its better that i just leave my macbook plugged in all the time *if i can* ... or should I just use the battery whenever I feel like it? I know that your supposed to do at least one full drain with your computer at least once a month... but If i'm going from room to room and just feel like not dragging around an adapter, is it bad for the battery? or is it good becasue I'm using the battery more and keeping the parts moving and warmed up rather than just never really using it?
    Like right now my battery status is "not charging" even though its not plugged in!
    the only reason I like to keep it plugged in a lot is because I record music a lot, and can't really do that on a low battery power (if the macbook shuts off I could lose data)
    or is all of this really that big a deal?

    Hey lyssa, that does help a bit. What about how my battery drains to under 95 % even when it's plugged in... and then it charges back to 100% in like 20 minutes... is that bad for the battery, because it happens when its plugged in (it slowly drains to below 95%... will that add battery cycles onto my laptop?
    That's inevitable and not particularly bad. What would be bad would be that it went down to 99% and tried to top off the charge to 100%. That would mean more attempts to charge up to 100%. It's not that you don't want it to charge up to 100%, but it's going to degrade slightly every time the battery capacity gets to 100%. Near 100% is where it generates a lot more heat and tends to degrade battery capacity the most. Taking it down below a certain capacity also seems to degrade the battery. However - if you want to actually use the battery, these are normal things and the battery is considered a replaceable part.
    I won't bore you with the details, but hybrid car batteries are designed to stay between 40-75% of theoretical capacity. By avoiding the extremes of charge and discharge, they can go through hundreds of thousands of these partial charge-discharge cycles while a standard use battery might go through maybe under 1000. The overall amount of energy cycling through a hybrid car battery would be maybe 30-50 times more than a standard use battery. Of course MacBook charging system isn't designed for that kind of use.
    Charging a lithium rechargeable battery is an exercise in careful management of heat generation and battery life. Some of the earlier lithium rechargeable charging systems weren't very good and didn't slow down the charge as it approached 100%. You'd get overheating batteries as well as a few that caught on fire (the Sony factory fire in the 90's took out most of the world's Li-ion battery production at the time). Fortunately lithium battery charging technology has improved to the point where fires are extremely rare.

  • My ipad with retina display won't charge after ios7. I have purchased a new cord and adapter but it won't charge at all or even recognize that it's plugged in most of the time. Help!!

    My iPad is less than a year old, still under the one year limited warranty, though since I don't know the exact problem, I don't know if my problem is covered. I have spoken to AppleCare agents 3 times, during all of which my conversation was cut off. In my last conversation I was told to do a complete reset, which I have now done. Problem is, I am now stuck on the set-up screen, as I cannot get above a 2% charge, meaning that my ipad cuts off long before I'm able to do a restore using iTunes, iCloud or even set it up as a new device. So, basically, I now have a $600 coaster... and I'm not happy about that. Especially since I'm nowhere near an Apple Store. I also bought the iPad at Wal-Mart, which I guess was a mistake, because once 30 days have passed, they couldn't care less about helping me. What do I do now? And please, don't throw a bunch of technical jargon at me.. I won't understand it and it'll just frustrate us both if I try. Thanks!
    p.s. I'm not 100% sure what OS it currently has, though I do believe I was able to update it to 7.0.3 or possibly 7.0.4 through iTunes, though I can't check it now.
    p.p.s. I have always used the charging cord and wall adapter that came with the device to charge it. When this problem first occurred, I also purchased new, exact replicas of both of these, which, obviously, made no difference.

    That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
    So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
    But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

  • Should  I leave my macbook plugged in when I'm not using it?

    Should I leave my macbook charging cable plugged in when I'm not using it?

    It won't hurt anything (i.e., it won't overcharge). It isn't a good idea to leave it plugged in 100% of the time. One common recommendation is to use the battery at least one cycle per month without ever deeply discharging it. Ways to do that would be to use it on battery power until it is discharged to 50% twice during a month or to 80% 5 times during a month or some other combination that adds up to roughly 100% usage once per month at a minimum. Another way of stating that is that you should use the battery sometimes.

  • For battery life is it better to run my newly acquired 2010 Macbook Pro on battery most of the time down fully then charge or plug it in most of the time?

    Just wondering about my 2010 Macbook Pro 13'
    For the best overall battery life is it better to run battery down each time then plug in til fully charged or just plug in and use most of the time?
    Thanks

    Hi C,
    Run it about 30 minutes a day on batt, the rest on the power adapter. Every month or two, run the batt all the way down until it goes into forced sleep, wait five hours, then charge it all the way up.

  • Is it better to leave your macbook pro in sleep mode during the night or have it shutdown all night?

    Is it better to leave your macbook pro in sleep mode during the night or have it shutdown all night?

    During sleep, your MacBook consumes a little part of the battery, so it won't harm leaving it in sleep mode. Also, you will be able to start using it quickly, as you don't need to wait until Mac OS X turns on.
    I only recommend you to turn off the MacBook if you are not going to use it for days in order to save battery, but apart from that, you don't need to turn it off

  • I have stored everything on my Macbook pro in a external hard drive (Time Machine)  Now that we have "wiped the machine" I am told I can start it over and load ontent--apps, docs, etc from the hard drive, just plug it in, find the time machine and what?

    I have stored everything on my Macbook pro in a external hard drive (Time Machine)  Now that we have "wiped the machine" I am told I can start it over and load ontent--apps, docs, etc from the hard drive, just plug it in, find the time machine and what?    I need to know what to highligh, what to click on. 

    hirogliffix,
    take a look at this Apple page — in particular, the “Restoring data from Time Machine backups” section and its “Restoring your entire system from a backup” subsection.

  • Does it harm the battery to leave the MacBook pluged in all of the time?

    Does it harm the battery to leave the MacBook pluged in all of the time?

    It is OK to leave your battery hooked to the charger most of the time. The only time I unhook mine from the charger is when I calibrate. You should calibrate your battery once a month. This keeps your battery healthy for when you need to use your MacBook portable.

  • When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

    When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
    it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

    Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings.  Be sure to turn it off.
    You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account.  You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
    To create a new icloud account, go to
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
    Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account.  (have restrictions turned off)  That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices.  Then sign in using the new ID.

    Levi G B ... Also found another thread by Davidfromsurfside on 10/14/11 0703A with the same problem. I responded on his thread "I have the same problem. IOS5 on iPad1, iPad2 and iPhone4S all with iCloud on. Lion 10.7.2 installed on my MacBookPro and iCloud set up/on. Any new iCal entry on either iPad or on the iPhone ends up via iCloud on both iPads and iPhone. BUT NOT ON THE MacBookPro. And iCal entry on the MacBookPro does NOT GET SENT to iCloud.com or to either iPad or the iPhone. This is a huge problem for me because I do all my office scheduling on the iPad or iPhone but rely on the MakeBookPro to print out daily client lists. I REALLY need to get this fixed...it is causing major business issues. " No one so far has had a fix....  :(

    Found these instructions here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15388885#15388885
    I found an answer that worked for me. I am using an iMac.
    (1) Sign out of the iTunes store
    (2) Open a NEW account with a new Apple ID
    (3) Go through the sign up process and then go to the ACCOUNT INFORMATION page
    (4) Go to RECOMENDATIONS & PING POSTING
    (5) Turn on Genius there
    Once the Genius updates, you can sign out and then sign in under your original Apple ID or the e-mail address you use for the iTunes store. All my store credit was there and now Genius worked.
    Rather odd but I actually like the Genius at times except when it can't deal with some of my lesser known bands that I listen to.
    Worked for me.
