I’m looking to purchase a MacBook Pro 13” mostly for uploading and editing photos (and storage of them, I’m not a professional photographer) and for crafting (uploading fonts and svgs). Would 8GB 2133MHz LPDDR3 memory; 256GB SSD storage be sufficient enough? Update for OS X Yosemite NOT in APP store.

About battery cycles

When you use your Mac notebook, its battery goes through charge cycles. A charge cycle happens when you use all of the battery’s power—but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge.

For example, you could use half of your notebook's charge in one day, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two. In this way, it might take several days to complete a cycle.

Batteries have a limited amount of charge cycles before their performance is expected to diminish. Once the cycle count is reached, a replacement battery is recommended to maintain performance. You can use your battery after it reaches its maximum cycle count, but you might notice a reduction in your battery life.

Knowing how many charge cycles your battery has and how many are left can help you determine when a battery replacement is required. For best performance, replace your battery when you reach its maximum cycle count.

Follow these steps to access information about your Mac notebook battery, including its cycle count:

1. Hold the Option key and click the Apple  menu. Choose System Information.
2. Under the Hardware section of the System Information window, select Power. The current cycle count is listed under the Battery Information section.
   

Identify your computer

Cycle count limits vary between Mac models. For help identifying your Mac notebook, use the Tech Specs page or these articles:

Use the table below to see the cycle count limit for your computer's battery. The battery is considered consumed once it reaches the limit.

If you try to start up your Mac from a hard disk, network volume, or Time Machine backup that contains an incompatible version or build of macOS, you might experience one or more of these symptoms:

• Your Mac doesn't finish starting up, or displays a prohibitory symbol at startup.
• You see a message that you're using an unsupported or incorrect version of the Mac operating system.
• Your Mac doesn't respond to your trackpad, mouse, or keyboard.
• Apps unexpectedly quit.
• Your Mac doesn't sleep or wake.
• You don't hear any sound from your Mac.

Which Mac operating systems are compatible?

The version of macOS that came with your Mac is the earliest version compatible with that Mac. To find out whether your Mac is compatible with a later version of macOS, check the system requirements:

If your Mac won't start up from a compatible version of macOS, it might require a specific build of that version. To get the correct build, reinstall macOS or upgrade to a later version of macOS.
