Dimensions of battery for Unibody 15" Macbook Pro? ( MB772LL/A )

Apple does not list the dimensions on their website, so I'm asking. I'm primarily looking for a case (something like BuiltNY's neoprene ones) for the battery but without the dimensions it's kind of hard. Or, more to the point, do you know of anyone who sells a case specifically for the battery?

Do you already have your 15" uMBP? If so, just shut it down, flip it over, take out the battery and measure it with a ruler...

  • Battery for Brand New MacBook Pro 17"

    Hello,
    I just purchased a new MacBook Pro 17".
    What do I do with battery charing for the first use?
    Apple's official battery resource: http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html does not effectively answer the question.
    It writes "Be sure to fully charge your portable when you plug it in for the first time, and then run Software Update to ensure you have the latest software."
    The question then is, do I run down the battery completely the first time (but never plugging it in), and then when it goes to sleep, charge it all the way up to full?
    I basically want to know what to do for the first time - how long do I let the battery run down if at all?
    Thank you

    Here's the dirty little secret about lithium batteries: Heat & frequent full discharge/recharge cycles are the two biggest killers of these batteries. Fact is, lithium batteries really don't like to be discharged below 40% of capacity very often. I'm typing this on a 4 1/2 year old MacBook Pro, and my battery is still going strong. It's fine to leave it plugged in all the time, that's what I do. Once every two-three months, I discharge it to about 40% & then recharge. So, charge yours till full, and try to never fully discharge the battery.

  • New macbook pro battery for late 2008 macbook pro dies fast.

    I have a late 2008 macbook pro 2.4 HGz Intet Core 2 Duo with 2 GB of ram. I've had it since 2009 and just got a new battery, as the old one finally gave up. That being said, the new battery dies quite fast and I'm not sure why. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! thank you

    Only problem is that maybe the battery you were sold was manufactured around the same time as the Mac. And LiPo batteries die because of old age as well as use. Take it out and carefully examine all markings, especially anything that can date when it was made, like copyrights or such.
    With that evidence you can go back and demand a refund.

  • I've ordered a replacement battery for my 15" macbook pro from 2007. Do I need to do anything besides put it in, charge it up, and calibrate it?

    The second battery in my 2007 15" macbook pro has failed. I've ordered a new one; when I get it should I do anything besides put it in, charge it up, and calibrate it? Both of them worked properly at first, but within the first year I found my computer would shut down without warning shortly after starting to run it on the battery.

    Perform a SMC Reset, it could be causing your battery problems.

  • What is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro?

    what is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro? I just bought it and i found that the count cycle for the battery is 6, is that normal?

    First off, a MacBook Pro is not a Power Mac.  Power Mac is the nomenclature for Apple desktop machines prior to mid-2006.   Mac Pros also are desktops, but later than mid-2006.    http://www.apple.com/batteries/ covers Apple notebook batteries and other battery performance.  I've asked this thread be moved.

  • I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board.

    I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board. How much will a new battery and motherboard cost and would it be worth it or should I just get a new computer. It was about 300 dollars to get it serviced last week. if it adds up to much past 600 dollars I will just get a new one. THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
    P.S During classes today it began beeping in my bag. Like three kind of long steady beeps then a short pause, and when I opened it I couldn't see anything but it was on so I turned it off and back on.

    Depends on what options your Apple store offers - if they can do a depot repair (where they send it out), that's around $300 for all parts & labor.
    If the store doesn't have that option, a logicboard is around $600, battery $80-$100, from what I've seen.
    If they JUST replaced the logicboard, you absolutely should NOT have to pay for another replacement - the replacement is covered by a warranty. If they want you to pay for it, make sure you have a copy of the receipt for the work that was recently completed so you can show it to them. They have no reason to charge you for another logicboard.

  • 2010 unibody 15" Macbook Pro 3 beeps after reformat

    I bought a 2010 Unibody 15" Macbook Pro from an office that was closing. They had not removed their software from the Macbook and did not provide the username and password. I tried to reboot from a purchased copy of Mountain Lion and I just get to the gray apple with the spinning wheel and a repeating 3 beeps. So I booted it as a taget drive and hooked it up to my 2008 17" Macbook Pro and used Disk Utility to erase the hard drive. Then I used a purchased copy of Snow Leopard to reformat the drive. In the Target mode, it showed the installation was successful. But upon unmounting and restarting, the 15" Macbook Pro returns to the gray apple and spinning wheel and 3 beeps. Undaunted, I again started it in Target mode and hooked it back up to the 17" Macbook Pro. Again I used Disk Utility to Erase the 15" hard drive. Then I unmounted the 15" and put the Mountain Lion disk in and tried to boot the 15" from the CD. No joy! Again the gray apple, spinning wheel and the repating set of 3 beeps.
    When I first got the 15 Macbook Pro, it would boot to the Username and Password screen so it looked like it had been used on a regular basis before it was sold.
    Any ideas?

    Three beebs indicates a problem with RAM.  See Attached.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2538
    Take it out, clean the contacts and replace it properly making certain that it is seated firmly.  If still no success, get new RAM or take it to a genius bar for verification.  The correct RAM specifications for a 2010 MBP are:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    Ciao.

  • Looking for a case for my new Macbook Pro 13'' 2011

    Any help would be great!
    I am looking for a case for my new MacBook Pro 13'' 2011. I went to the Speck website where there are plenty of nice cases to choose from, except I am a little worried that it wont fit the MBP properly. The new MBP 13'' has the same dimensions as the older model but I am mostly worried about the power mag not properly plugging into the side of the MBP.
    Have you guys heard of anyone having problems with their L-shaped power mags not fully fitting onto the macbook pro?
    I like the Speck brand very much on my MBP 15'' because I haven't had any problems with it.

    Speck casing is good and will fit EXACTLY what your MBP is.
    here's mine,

  • When the battery charged fully in macbook pro and the charger (AC Adapter)

    when the battery charged fully in macbook pro and the charger (AC Adapter) is connecting (Showing Green Lamp) to the macbook pro does that effect to the battery live of the macbook pro with Retina Display 15'' ME665
    Also I want know the Best headphone compatible with macbook pro Retina that help me to Hear and Record ?
    Notes ( the macbook pro 15" has just one port for the headphone usually it's tow for record and hear)
    Best Regards,

    The MacBook Pro charging circuit will charge the battery until it reaches 100% charge and then switch to power mode for the MBP.  When the battery drops to 93-95% charge the circuit will switch back to charging mode to top off the battery charge again.  You will not harm the battery or MBP by leaving it plugged in most of the time.
    There are many good headphone/microphone combinations on the market, best really is more a function of how much money you want to spend.  Check those offered in the Apple on-line store for features/price to see what would best fit your needs.  You can also look at audio equipment suppliers, all the earphones need is a standard 3.5 mm plug.

  • What is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro

    what is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro. This is a pre unibody machine.
    I am upgrading at the minute and can't make my mind up. I need a 7200rpm drive, but have heard some stories concerning overheating etc.
    These are the drives I am looking at: Seagate Momentus, Hitachi Travelstar and Western Digital all 500GB, running at 7200rpm.

    If you haven't already, you might look a the user comments at http://www.newegg.com on those hard drives. If you don't get other comments here, you might post in the MBP discussion (this is the iMac discussion) at https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro

  • Any tips on how to improve battery life on new macbook pro?

    Any tips on how to improve battery life on new macbook pro?

    It all depends on how much you plan to run on battery power. If you don't use it often, set yourself a reminder to let it run unplugged about every couple of weeks to aboout a 40% charge and then plug it up and let it charge back to 100%. If you'r'e a frequent battery user (like me) don't let your MBP discharge to the point where you're running on reserve power - down to about 30 minutes remaining and then charge it back in.
    I have over 130 cycles on my computer and I've just had it since March. Even though my battery health was 102.2% when I got my MBP, it's still at 98.8% health and I'm still getting 7+ hours out of my battery. To get the longest use when under battery, keep your activities to low-CPU intensive apps (browser, email client, word processor, etc.) - Internet surfing alone, and not watching a lot of online videos, will give you mor ebang for the buck. You can also check your battery health in 'real time' by using "Battery Health" - free from the App Store and you can make sure that you're running on integrated graphics, which uses less power, by downloading Cody Krieger's exceptional gfxCardStatus.
    Keep your screen brightness down to about four ticks and your keyboard backlighting to one tick - should work fine.
    Good battery health to you,
    Clinton

  • Does the battery charging in the macbook pro retina automatically cut off when the battery is fully charged?

    Does the battery charging in the macbook pro retina automatically cut off when the battery is fully charged? or does it continue charging?In which case,is it better for the battery life to switch off the power supply or leave it on while using the macbook?

    Yes, and the pilot light on the MagSafe2 connector changes from orange to green. If you unplug, you will start draining the battery again, whereas if plugged the Mac will take power from the brick and leave the battery in a charged state.

  • I need a good monitor for the retina macbook pro

    What is a good monitor for the retina macbook pro. Im looking for 27 inch that is around the price of the thunderbolt display. The only thing putting me off the thunderbolt display is that i wouldnt be able to watch stuff on my xbox on it due to no hdmi.
    Im going to university so it would be useful to be able to watch tv and play games on the monitor too but Im more interested in a monitor that will work great on the rmbp and on photoshop. I need to be able to calibrate it perfectly.

    If I am understanding you correctly you should look at the 27 inch Samsung HD LED. Best Buy has it on sale for $340

  • Whats the maximum resolution resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    whats the maximum resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    I don't know where you found 1920x1080, but that isn't the max. The INTERNAL display can even support more than that.
    The maximum resolution is really hardware based, and since Thunderbolt 2 has a Mini displayport connector (Mini Displayport 1.2), the max resolution for Mini Displayport is 4k (3840x2160).
    PLEASE NOTE: Not all adapters can support that resolution, most monitors that can run 4k @60Hz have Displayport 1.2 (The most recent revision), Mini Displayport 1.2, and HDMI 2.0. DVI dual link can run 4k, but only 24-30Hz, depending on the monitor.
    Hope this helps!!
