We were told not to leave the Macbook plugged in all the time because the battery can overcharge. Other places we've read that overcharging is not a concern. We've also read various opinions on how far to run the battery down before charging and how ofter to run it down to a very low charge Is there a correct answer for these?

We are using the same e mail account on both iMac and Macbook but have a couple of e mail boxes on the iMac that we'd like to transfer to the laptop. What is the easiest way to do this?

Thanks
Bob

Absolutely positively not true in a properly functioning laptop and charger!
