Buying a extra long power cable?

Where is the best place to get a extra long power cord?  The one that Apple supplies is just not long enough.

You have a regular AC power cord going from the electrical outlet to the white converter box.  From the converter you have a cord attached that has a MagSafe connector on the end.  Can you not just use a regular AC extension cord from the electrical outlet?

  • Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    It may not be the same molded plug but I would think any normal 3-prong computer power cable should work.
    How about this one?

    I've always had the theory that if you put two computer power cords in a drawer they will breed and you'll end up with a lot more!   My parts drawer is always full of them.  They like to knot up by themselves as well!  Maybe that's how they breed.

    FWIW, US/Canada plugs look like this (2 flat pins and one round ground pin) and the normal non-US ones look like the second (three round pins).

  • Looking for black, extra long cable.

    Any recommendations on an extra long black charging/sync cable for iPads? Found one but it does not actually charge. Desperately looking for a source to buy in quantity. Any recommendations welcome.

    If you're only looking for a longer charging cord, have you considered just buying an extenstion cord? Obviously, that won't work if you're connecting it to a computer but should do fine if you're using the power adapter.

  • My cinema display won't work over a display port booster and extra long cable.

    Hi,
    I have a Mac Pro (mid 2010) and an Apple Cinema Display 27". I also have two other DVI monitors. Recently I got a few extenders, so that I can have the computer in a different room to the monitors. Everything works perfectly except the Cinema Display. My system recognises that the cinema display is connected (as it shows as a display in preferences), but the screen is black.
    The series of connections from computer to screen is: mini display port to display port adaptor, short display port cable, gefen display port booster, extra long display port cable, display port (female to female) coupler, display port to mini display port.
    Please let me know if you have any ideas what the problem may be.
    Thank you!

    Per your advice to taking out the longest cable, I ran a couple of tests at different stages of the connection. Over a short conversion to displayport and back to mini display port, the monitor connected no problem. It was only when I introduced the "Display Port Booster" that I lost signal, over the short connection.
    I think the unit might be faulty and this is the problem. I sent it back to the company that sold it to me and they're running tests now. Hopefully they will be able to fix it.

  • Extra power cable needed for a SATA drive in a G4 AGP "Sawtooth"?

    If one adds a SATA controller card and a SATA hard drive to a G4 AGP "Sawtooth", will a power cable like the one at the below link be needed, or would the necessary power cabling ordinarily come with the drive?

    Thanks for the additional information, japamac.
    That would be Left (or right angle 270º) for the data cable.
    Which of the below data cables would be more appropriate, the 18" long one or the 39" long one?

    [http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Micro%20Accessories/SATA39L>
    Power connectors would be a left angle 90º to get wires going up.
    I found the below two (the first is the same one linked near the top of this thread):

    Is it okay to have one of the ends of a "Y" cable remain unconnected? I've done that with my existing ATA power cables, but I wanted make sure that that is also okay with the SATA power cables.

  • Can I buy a new power cable?

    My MacBook power cable is falling appart; the plastic is wearing away and it will only charge when it's positioned in certain ways. I was wondering if there was anyway I could buy a new power cable for my MacBook and how much it would cost. I would really appreciate it if I could get a new one for relatively cheap.

    You can get a new third party 60W power adapter on eBay for under $20.

  • Extra long iPad charging cable.

    Anyone know where I can get an extended charging cable for my iPad please.
    I tried to use my USB extension attached to iPad cable but it won't work/charge, so I think it's best to get a longer independent cable instead, (well I'll get my carer to get one for me, unless I get one delivered lol)
    I need the length to be at least 2 metres, as being disabled I need it to reach my bed from the plug point.
    I have looked on amazon in uk but can't seem to find any.
    Any and all help would be very appreciated indeed.
    Just incase your wondering, I live in the uk so need to get one from this country if possible.

    I own several of the ones from monoprice and other 3rd party makers (cable junkie). I think there must be significant current loss in those cables because they either don't work or charge very slowly. Of the 10 rooters I got from monoprice, only 1 registers as charging on my ipad but over night it only charged about 15%. The others won't charge at all. I think that's why apple doesn't sell long sync cables. Instead, their solution is a long ac cord that runs to the power block with a short sync cable.
    Funny thing is I know it's physically possible to have a long sync cable. If you look in te windows of an apple store, the ipad is displayed on a stand and the sync cable is curled on the floor, must be over 10 feet in length. I ask at every store and no one knows where it came from or how to get one.

  • Do I need to buy any extra cables for the airport express??

    I was wondering if i need to buy any extra cables for the airport exprees.what kind of cables do i have to get to connect the airport express to my DSL modem?

    Typically all you would need is an Ethernet cable (cat5, rj45 end), and it would be connected to the LAN port on the DSL modem, and the Ethernet jack on the AP Express.

  • I need an ethernet cable connection to a non-wireless device that isn't near my current airport express. Can I buy an extra one to plug in near the non wireless device to receive the wireless data and put the signal out in ethernet form?

    I need an ethernet cable connection to a non-wireless device that isn't near my current airport express. Can I buy an extra one to plug in near the non wireless device to receive the wireless data and put the signal out in ethernet form?

    Yes, you can.
    This is a special feature of the AirPort Express 802.11n.  You will have to set it up "manually" to "enable Ethernet clients".
    If  your "main" AirPort Express is an 802.11n version, it is also possible to setup the second Express to "extend a wireless network" to provide additional wireless coverage in addtion to enabling the Ethernet port.
    If you need the steps, post back to let us know what operating system you are using on the Mac or PC that will be used for the setup of the new AirPort Express.

  • Extra power cable?

    I just got my new Apple TV today...
    Is the new Apple TV power cable a standard connector? Where can I get one?
    It's great that there is no power supply brick to deal with!
    I want to be able to move it from the family room to basement, but not have to move the power cord.

    will it be harmed if it is plugged in using the cable from the previous apple tv?

  • Seeking a longer power cord???  (G4-flatscreen IMAC)

    Are longer power cords available rather than the standard 6-footers? If not, does anyone have a solution that would get me to at least 8 feet? Thanks.

    Sure voltage drops off over long distance; but as all Macs have auto-switched power supplies capable of running with anything between 100 - 240 volts AC at 50-60Hz there really isn't an issue. I remember watching a colleague plug his Compaq laptop (rate for a 230VAC european supply) in to a 115 volt socket. It actually stuttered on DVD playback! 
    This won't be an issue. You can either use a domestic extension lead as JPT says or buy a longer 'cloverleaf' mains cable.
