Warranty Macbook charger

My Macbook Pro 13 2009
It is not working the charger,
I wonder if apple warranty give me the charger or have to pay for repair ?

The charger has the same warranty as the MBP. If it is a new charger, then there is a one year warranty.
Ciao.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you didn't cause the problem and the charger is in warranty, take it to any Apple Store or reseller and you will get a new charger for free.
If you caused that the MacBook charger broke, you have to buy a MagSafe charger at an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC461LL/A/apple-60w-magsafe-power-adapter-for- macbook-and-13-inch-macbook-pro?fnode=5a

Can I refund my smouldering Macbook Charger

Hey Guys,
During my holiday, the most inconvienient time possible, my macbook charger wire has started to smoulder. This is as far as I know no fault of my own, as I like to think I keep good care of my possesions. I always try to keep the charger in areas with ventilation and this was no exeption.
The wire coming from the transformer has burnt bare and it provides intermittent charge (I wouldn't charge my mac unless I absoultely had to on this connection). I am within my 1 year warranty and am wondering if I can get a free replacement charger should I visit an Apple Retail Store.
Thanks.
PS: There are others on the web experincing or have experienced similar problems.

Only an Apple store genius bar tech can say precisely if it will be replaced under the warranty...so take it in as soon as you can and see what they say. We are fellow users here and cannot speak for Apple.

Macbook charger on Macbook Pro?

I forgot my charger for my MBP at home and want to know if I can use my buddies regular Macbook charger he's not using. TIA.

Yes, you can use the MB adapter to run your MBP. But it won't provide sufficient power to charge the battery while you are using your MBP.

Macbook charger-brand new, no light, not charging?

Hello everyone,
Recently I was having problems with my MacBook charger not working. It was almost 4 years old, so I figured it was time to order a new one anyways. So I ordered a new one and received it today, and the charger is still not lighting up. The laptop is also not charging, however it does recognize it because it says "Not charging" where the battery would usually be indicated. Does anyone have any idea on what would be causing this? I'm thinking it might be the battery, but not 100% sure. Here is what my laptop is showing:

Different Macbook Charging Issue

I've been having a problem with my Macbook. I used to get very good battery life (4 1/2 hours) but recently, that has been cut down substantially. I started trying to figure out why, and I realized that my power adapter was givining me a green light for charged.
I looked in my menu bar and sure enough the battery meter read 35%. Which is clearly not charged.
I proceeded to completely drain the battery, remove it, and then reconnect everything, at which point it began charging again. A day later, I was once again looking at my computer not charging at 26%.
I've reset the SMC (or PMU or whatever it is now), PRAM, and recalibrated the battery, booted into safe-boot and repaired permissions (which found nothing to fix), and run TechTool Pro. Yet I've seen no change.
I looked into some other posts on similiar issues and I think I have something a little different. Where some people are claiming that there battery is fried due to an Update, a trip to my system profiler shows:
Battery Information:
Battery Installed: Yes
First low level warning: No
Full Charge Capacity (mAh): 2284
Remaining Capacity (mAh): 583
Amperage (mA): 0
Voltage (mV): 11738
Cycle Count: 77
AC Charger Information:
Connected: Yes
Charging: No

Hi William,
If all the remedy you tried and not resolved it, could be you have a bad battery or bad PMU / charging system.
Visit apple store and swap your battery with their demo unit, and see if your macbook charging their demo battery and your battery charged by their demo unit.
Good Luck.

Using MacBook Charger

I just got a new MacBook for my wife(btw, very nice machine) and I noticed the battery charger is significantly smaller than my MacBook Pro.
I also saw that the battery charger for the MacBook Pro is rated as 85W versus 60W in the MacBook.
My question is, can I use the MacBook charger to charge my MacBook Pro? It would be nice if I could do this as I can carry a lighter charger during travel.
Comments?
Thanks.

Thanks. Seems like the MacBook charger can charge MacBook Pro!!!
I tried it and I saw the light was on when connecting the MacBook adapter into my MacBookPro so I assume this is indeed working/charging.
In this case, if a MacBookPro owner wants to buy a second adapter, why should anyone buy a BIGGER and HEAVY adapter (in MacBook Pro) than a much smaller one in MacBook? And what is the purpose of having a 80W adapter when 60W is enough???

15" Macbook Charger (Model#: A1286) - Charger (Model#: A1290)

I have a 15" Macbook Pro (Model#: A1286). I accidentally misplaced my charger and was told by one of my friends he had a extra macbook charger. The macbook charger he has is a T-shaped 85W Charger (Model#: A1290). He said I could use it aslong as it works. I was wondering if someone could tell me if this charger would work on my laptop. Thanks.

Yes, it will work fine.

New MacBook with old MacBook charger

Dear readers,
I have a question. I am the proud owner of a MacBook Pro (13") from early 2011. Yet, I have had problems with chargers. The first charger stopped charging my MacBook after 2 months, and now, after about 6 months my replacement charger also stopped charging my MacBook (the first one was connected but didn't charge, the second one was connected, but the computer didn't recognize it was). Somehow, the new charger's don't seem to have a long lifespan. I like the white block chargers better than the rectangle-like aluminium shaped ones, since they fit better and seem to keep working longer. My sister, however, was the owner of an old white MacBook, presumably from 2006 (it was the first one with an intel processor) but that MacBook died. Well, to make a long story short, her charger works great on my MacBook but here's my question: Does it hurt my MacBook, and my battery in particular, to charge it with this old MacBook charger?
Thank you very much for your reply!

Your MBP came with a 60W adapter, and the old MB charger can only put out 45W. So it will charge the MBP's battery when the machine is shut down or sleeping, and perhaps when the computer is being used for light work, though charging will be slower then than it would be with the right adapter. When the machine is working hard, the battery won't be charged. You won't do the computer any harm, but the adapter will probably get hotter than the original adapter did, so be sure to use it only where it has air circulating freely around it for cooling.

Melting connection port of Macbook Charger.

I purchased a macbook charger in Jan 2011, but now the connectign port has started melting down. Is it unusual??

If you can't charge it then you need to take it to Apple and get the socket fixed, once your battery goes flat that's the end of any use so there's no point trying to struggle on this way.

Can my damaged macbook charger be damaging my battery?

hi there, a couple of weeks ago the magsafe connector of my brand new macbook charger (85 W) felt into a bowl with some melted ice cream in it. Essentially the charger is now damaged, it originally kept glowing even when disconnected but after cleaning it as best i could it began to only light up when plugged in as expected however it seems to have deteriorated from there:
i can always get it to charge eventually but only using one side of the magsafe (can't flip back and forth between sides) but sometimes it takes some wiggling to get the light to illuminate so it will charge
it seems to charge unusually fast, but maybe thats just because im paying attention now that i think theres an issue
the battery drains a lot quicker than it previously did (my laptop is only 1 1/2 years old battery has 494 cycles )
most recent issue is that twice within a few days of each other there has been an incident of the laptop just going black and requiring the power button to be held to get it to start up again citing the message ' Your computer shut down because of a problem' etc etc.
I am aware I should have replaced the charger immediately to be safe but I can't afford the £65 price tag at the moment as im a student and i thought because it initially seemed to charge as normal that it may be okay. Does it sound like this has done some permanent damage and if so what is the issue and (how) can it be fixed?
Cheers.

You should be fine. Take it into your local apple store.
The only issue I could see is someone claiming that it was 'abuse or neglect', but that's up to the person you deal with.

Macbook charger caught fire in bed!

My boyfriend was using his macbook pro (less than a year old) in bed next to me while plugged into the charger and out of nowhere the cord began to sizzle with sparks, followed by small flame and smoke. He immediately unplugged the charger from the wall, and then from the computer and we were left with a burning smell and a black burn hole in the side of the cord. The computer seems to be working ok and we are both thankful that we were awake to stop the fire before it destroyed our home. We made an appointment with a mac genius for tomorrow. This has got to be something apple will replace for free, right? Has this happened to anyone else on here? There are lots of blog posts from other people who have had a similar experience. <edited by host>

MagSafe chargers get warm. Very warm.
But to get to the point where it catches fire is not a good thing.
Apple does not have to replace anything for "free." They well might--they should!--but they are under no obligation to do so, especially if you're past your warranty. I'd check on that first! In your case, less than a year, it should be replaced.
My question is: what was he doing with the MacBook in bed? Anything other than an electric blanket in something with things like flammable cotton sheets doesn't strike me as a good idea. (But that's just me.)
Best of luck in any case--
Doc

Macbook Charger light

the light is bright green then it dims, but it says that its charging my macbook.
but I dont want to wake up and find out that the charger has died.
I'm not sure if I should be alarmed.
it turns bright green when I wiggle the cord.
I was really wondering if its time for a new cord or not.

I'm not under warranty nor do I have AppleCare.
I'll probably have to visit a local pawnshop or just order another cord whenever
I can gather the funds to do so.
Thank you.
