You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

  • MagSafe Adaptor works on MacBook Pro but not MacBook

    I have a MagSafe 60 Watt adaptor that will not work on any of our 1 year old Black MacBooks but will work on my MacBook Pro 17" and my other workers 15" MacBook Pro. Has anybody ever had this happen? I have tried it on at least 8 MacBooks and no go. Thanks, Billy

    Have discovered that the MagSafe adaptor also works on a white, but will not work on a Black MacBook. Apple replaced it but it still puzzles me.

  • Charging a MacBook Pro (60 MagSafe) with an Air (45w MagSafe) plug.

    Can I safely charge a MacBook Pro (60 MagSafe) with a MacBook Air wall charger (45w MagSafe)?  I ask because I'm replacing a 2009 MacBook Pro with a new Air and the Pro cord is dead. I'd like to charge the pro with the air charger so I can transfer files.

    The short answer is NO.  MacBook Airs use the 45 Watt adaptors, 13" MacBook Pros use the 60Watt and the 15 and larger use an 85Watt adaptor.
    You can use a larger size to chage one that needs a smaller wattage, but not the other way around.

  • Burnt Magsafe Adaptor

    Hello,
    I've had a common problem concerning the wire of my magsafe adaptor for my macbook. It's burnt/melted and won't charge my macbook anymore. I went to a few apple stores, one pretty much told me to sod off, and others told me there's only a warranty of 1 year on the adaptor. I bought my MacBook in august 2006 so that warranty no longer counts.
    Then I found this article online:
    Apple announces Magsafe out of warranty replacement program.
    This one concerns faulty Magsafe power adaptors that shipped with MacBook (13-inch Late 2006), MacBook (13-inch), MacBook Pro (15-inch Glossy) and MacBook Pro (17-inch).
    Source: http://apcmag.com/appleannounces_magsaferecall.htm
    This article led me to the following URI:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1977?locale=en_AU
    A page on the official apple website clearly stating, whether my adaptor is in or out-of-warranty, I should be able to get a replacement.
    What's the deal?

    Print that page and take it into the Apple store. Don't leave without a replacement. Get a manager involved if you need to.

  • MacBook pro retina - magsafe tip extremely hot

    Hi All,
    The connection tip of my magsafe adaptor gets really hot while the macbook is charging. Is this normal? I ve had a macbook in the past and haven't faced this at all.
    Just wondering if this is normal or if I should be concerned about this issue?
    Thanks in advance!

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • New Magsafe Adaptor Issues

    I recently purchased one of the new Magsafe adaptors for my Macbook Pro as my old adaptor was beginning to fray. The new adaptor has already been experiencing the same issues my one-year old adaptor has. The charger refuses to charge unless you play with the cord to find just the right spot and even then sometimes it out and out refuses.
    The adaptor was purchased on April 18th, so it is well over a month old, but the adaptor shouldn't be doing this. Is this a defect in the item on Apple's Behalf? Will Apple do anything for me if I contact them?

    It's either a defect in the item or damage that you caused. If you've been disconnecting the cord by pulling on it, it's damage that you caused, and it won't be covered by warranty. No one but Apple can tell you how Apple will respond to your report about it, but if you could show it to an Apple technician (or an authorized service provider's technician) in person, you would have a far better chance of getting an immediate answer and perhaps an immediate replacement than if you have to report it to AppleCare by telephone. There is no way to do so by email, so don't waste any time looking for an email address.
    You haven't said where you are, but here's how to find the nearest AASP:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
    And Here's AppleCare's US phone number, in case you're in the US:
    1-800-275-2273
    If you are elsewhere, look in your owner's manual for information about obtaining warranty service in your country.

  • External monitor goes black when macbook pro has magsafe connected

    Hi,
    I have bought an external monitor about 1 week ago, and I have it connected with a minidisplay to dvi cable, and a dvi cable to the monitor.
    It was working OK -well, it had some sudden flash to black screen that lasted about 1 second, but nothing else- until thir morning when it just started showing a black screen. Mac OS sees the monitor, and I can move windows over there, etc. It's "alive". But I only see a black screen on the monitor.
    I tested with other computer, and it works OK. The cables work too.
    What I discovered is that if I unplug the power adaptor from the MBP the monitor screen shows correctly.
    It works OK only if the magsafe adaptor is unplugged from the MBP, it doesn't care if the magsafe adaptor is plugged to the power or not; only if it's connected to the mac book pro.
    It seems like some magnet stuff is making a mess there. What could it be? I can't work on the monitor only in battery power...
    I tried resetting nvram and the other stuffs that I found here, but nothing works.
    Thanks!

  • TS1713 Does my 1-year warranty cover the replacement of a damaged Magsafe adaptor?

    The cord on my 85W Magsafe adaptor has been damaged. Does my 1-year warranty cover the replacement of the adaptor?

    The cord directly connected to the adaptor was starting to rip off, and so my mother used electrical tape to fix it. The tape ended up melting, somehow causing the cord to rip off, but not completely. The charger works to an extent - it's very on and off. However, I still would like to replace it for a new one. Will I still be able to replace it? With warranty covering it?

  • Magsafe Adaptor Broken, Again.

    My last magsafe adaptor broke, and I got it replaced for free (Out of warranty) due to it having a known problem. Now, the replacement in just over 4 months has given away, and won't charge. It's the exact same thing that happened to my last Magsafe adaptor whereby the Adaptor slowly went, where at first you had to hold it within a certain position to get it to charge, and that kept getting worse, until it went.
    I've used it properly, following the apple guidelines, but it still went. I have the sheet from the last repair dated 23 August 2010, so I was wondering if I will get it replaced free of charge? I mean I see other people are having similar problems with this magsafe adaptor on the reviews section on this site, so it looks like the problem that you tried to fix, hasn't worked.
    Thanks for reading!
    EDIT: Sorry, i posted this in the wrong section.

    I had the burning magsafe sheath problem in 2008 and had it replaced out of any type of warrany by a really kind genius guy.
    Yesterday I went back for the same problem..but this "genius" said it was never a recognized issue. Since yesterday I'm looking for some way to prove them IT IS a known problem, there WAS a document (lost), and THEY probably gave me ANOTHER defected magsafe, as I use it very carefully.
    I found this thread here http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1782256&tstart=0&messageI D=8426183#8426183 but it links to the lost apple article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1977?locale=en_EN which now redirects to the "Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters" page.
    Would this be enough?
    Can anyone help me retrieving that document?
    Thanx

  • Magsafe adaptor making a distinct high pitched buzz

    What the title says. Buzz coming from the magsafe adaptor. Usually when i first turn the power on, the buzz will sort of "sizzle", like an uneven buzz, then even out to the distinct continous uniform buzz. Any ideas?
    Cheers

    Run, don't walk to your local Authorized Service Provider. In the interim, you may want to change the duck-head for the extension cable (or vice versa) and see if that makes a difference.

  • MagSafe adaptor very hot

    So, I think my dad ran over my MagSafe adaptor while he was vacuuming the other day.  It's still charging properly and everything but the "cube" of the adaptor is very hot after it's been plugged in for a bit.  Right now it's plugged into the wall via the longer three-prong cord then to the Mac.  I've had it plugged in about 30 mins and it's already so hot that I can't touch it properly and if I disconnect the extension cord, the metal prongs on the MagSafe are hot as well.  I'm just checking here before I buy a new one because I don't remember if this is normal.  I don't know for sure that anything happened to it but there appear to be hairline cracks near where the extension cord connects to the MagSafe.  Replace?  
    As I'm writing, I feel like it's obvious the device needs to be replaced, but maybe this question will help others so I'll post it anyways

    It is better to take the MBP to the Apple store as soon as possible.
    This is not normal.
    May be the adapter has to be replaced.
    You can either return or exchange an Apple product within 14 days of purchase.

  • Melted MagSafe adaptor

    Hey guys, my sister's MagSafe adaptor has started to melt toward the end where the cord joins the block, and it's starting to melt away at the plastic. I also noticed the cable itself getting VERY hot to touch, so there's a definite fault somewhere. I heard that Apple in America are replacing these dangerous power adaptors even outside of warranty, are Apple doing the same thing in Australia? Hope so.
