Longest you ever left your macbook/MBP on...

[Dfndr90]

I leave mine on for about 5 days at a time, then usually restart on the weekends.

Matt...

My record is 34 days. I only restart / shutdown if updates are required. As of this morning it's been on for 18 hrs

 

[Principessa]

My MBP has only been shut down three times since I got it 2 months ago.

 

[heatmiser]

I'm currently at 28 days and 5 hours. Guess that means I last rebooted around New Year's Eve. Going to see if I can get a year's worth of uptime, just for kicks.

Oh, and I'm running 10.4.11.

 

[Baba Ganoush]

Right now I am up to 11 days of uptime.

 

[xparaparafreakx]

I use fan control and set the temps and fans speeds. LCD turns off after certain time and with that, it is on for weeks on end.

 

[skyrider007]

i turn mine off every 2-3 days

 

[tersono]

Mine only get rebooted for updates, and has been on for several days at a stretch without even sleep mode.

I've always treated my Macs this way (desktops and laptops) and have never had a problem.

 

[BioChron]

Longest I have had it on is maybe a little under twenty four hours. I'll normally shut down my laptop when I am not using it.

 

[mckyvlle]

I leave mine on all the time, but I do let it sleep when I'm not using it. The occasional reboot when Software Update asks for it and when things go nuts.

Current uptime is just over 9 days. Though it's been up for longer than that before.

Now I run Leopard I turn it off a lot more frequently, because of Boot Camp 😉

 

[CrzyCanuck72]

my record is about 17 days powered on (but sleeping it at night)

 

[matthewHUB]

102 days is my max.

Currently

tim-crosss-macbook:~ Tim$ uptime
22:42  up 4 days,  3:09, 2 users, load averages: 0.40 0.69 0.89
tim-crosss-macbook:~ Tim$

I had a KP a few days ago - had been up since the MWSF updates. I never turn it off by choice.

 

[MacDude415]

Maybe 8-10 hours, then I shut it down and put it away.
