can I use a 85W on my macbook 13"?
My 60W charger died, but I was given a 85w charger. Can I use this, or should I buy the 60w?

Yes, the computer knows how much power to draw, and using an 85W adapter on your 13inch MBPro will be perfectly safe.

Yes you can use the 85w charger as the macbook can have the power regulated down to the 60w it needs automatically, you couldn't use the 60w adapter on a macbook pro though.
