Hi, Can I
1. Download for hours on the Mac? (whats the max time I can?)
2. Leave it on sleep for days? (whats the max time I can?)
In order not to ruin or burn out anything inside. (or even make less efficient)

I have an alternative which is my windows Desktop. But I don't want to download my movies there and transfer everyday. So how long can I leave it on/ sleep such that the MBP 13inch isn't harmed in ANY way.

Thanks.
 
if your mbp is plugged in to the ac adapter you can download for years if you want....?
 
Parts are designed for use. As long as you aren't doing video encoding/gaming every waking hour of the day you can leave it on all the time if you like. Downloading puts almost zero stress on the system, so download away :D
