HT1941 is the power adapter covered under apple care?

mine seems to have frayed over time. The computer is still under apple care.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
If it came with your Mac, it's covered by AppleCare, so Apple will replace it for free if the power adapter is broken

  • Is the power adapter covered under Apple Care?

    I wrap the cord on my power adapter about twice per day going between home, school, and work. Consequently, the power cord has begun to fray where it comes out of the white power supply. Is a replacement power supply covered under Apple Care?

    Dorianj,
    I would be interested to hear what Apple says regarding warranty coverage for your power supply. I had a slight, but annoying, problem with my Powerbook G4 adapter where the two-pronged wall adapter would not stay rigidly straight in the wall socket. Result was that it would slide out of the wall socket and lose its connection. I called Apple under my extended Applecare warrantly and they said that a replacement (only $10 anyway, but still...) was not covered as the problem was related to my use and handling. The tech on the phone conceded that if I had said that the adapter wasn't working it could have been replaced under the warranty. Of course he said he couldn't change the information on my "case" once that was entered.
    Hope this experience is hellpful and please post back on your results.

  • Adapter covered by Apple Care

    The plastic casing on my Power Adapter cable broke right where it connects to the computer pug end. It had been working fine, but yesterday it stopped charghing unless it was in exactly the right position, and seemed to be overheating at the end the connects to the computer (much hotter than before it broke). Is the power adapter covered by Apple Care or am I going to have to shell out the money for a new adapter? The adapter is not even a year old.

    Mine stopped charging some time ago and AppleCare replaced it.
    But your case depends on how Apple Supports sees the situation. How did the casing break, did you drop it or what?
    Give them a call.

  • Is the power adapter covered in the 3year extended Apple Care?

    Is the power adapter covered in the 3year extended Apple Care?
    I've only had my MacBook Pro around 18 months and the power adapter has split (exposed wires) even though the charger has never left the house and has stayed plugged into the same plug socket every since i've had it.
    Is this something Apple would fix/replace under the 3 year expended Apple Care Warranty I have paid for?

    You could call and ask considering your description.

    Is there an "APPLE STORE" in India or you just went in a reseller store?
    There is a replacement program for sleep/wake button for free. Just look for an Apple Store and make a reservation at Genius Bar.
    I have an iPhone 5, bought in Dubai U.A.E.
    It is a US model (model A1428) which is different of the model use here in Italy/Europe
    My serial number is qualified for battery replacement program.
    I thought the Apple Store wouldn't repair my phone because I bought it from another country , a different model and it is already out of warranty.
    The Apple store's staff just checked if my iPhone's serial number is eligible for the program and he replaced the battery for free today.

  • Is my stuck trackpad covered under Apple Care?

    I spilled food on my trackpad last night and now it's stuck! Is this covered under Apple Care? I know water is not but I'm not sure if food has the same policy.

    Accidental Damage isn't covered under Applecare. Unfortunately, no.

  • 3rd party RAM covered under Apple Care?

    hey all,
    i just got a new MacBook and am planning on upping the RAM to 2 Gigs. I know that if you buy the RAM from Apple and you have the Apple Care Protection Plan on your computer, the Apple RAM you install is also covered for the duration of the plan. I have Apple Care for my new MacBook and i'm wondering if 3rd party RAM would be covered under AppleCare of it it HAS to be Apple RAM. Is it worth the extra roughly $400 to have 2 Gigs from Apple and have it covered under Apple Care? If not, what are some recommendations for reliable 3rd party RAM? is there a certain brand that is hands down the best? thanx very much!
    David

    David,
    AppleCare only covers hardware that you purchase from Apple. If you have problems with your RAM later on, that's between you and the company you bought it from.
    Thus, if you buy third-party RAM, it's important to buy a good product from a reputable company (and to keep the RAM that came with your machine, in case you ever have to return the machine to the state it was in when you bought it from Apple, to return it to Apple for service should they request that.)
    Only you can decide for yourself whether it's worth it to you.
    I decided that it was not worth the extra money to buy RAM from Apple, and bought and installed 2GB of RAM on my own. It was easy, as long as you follow the directions from Apple's MacBook support site (there are PDF downloads explaining how to do maintenance on your MacBook, and RAM is considered a user-replaceable part.)
    I have had a very good experience buying and installing third-party MacBook RAM from Small Dog Electronics; others on this forum have recommended OtherWorld Computing (OWC.)
    Patriot and Crucial also seem to be well thought-of memory vendors.

  • HT1349 Is the Apple Magsafe 2 Power Adapter covered under Apples one year warranty?  I cant figure out how to check the date.  The serial number is to long to enter.

    I need help finding out warranty information on the Apple Magsafe 2 Power Adapter.  When I enter the serial number, it is too long for the box.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    I got this from my father.  It looks like it is an aftermarket package and not something that came with the original Mac. I will try to attach a picture of the item box and the barcode label.  The actual part number is MD506LL/A .

  • Is the power cord covered under warranty?

    Yes it's covered under your computers warrenty. Take it to the Apple Store for repairs.

  • Is the power cord covered under warrenty?

    Yes.

  • Broken power cord - covered by Apple-Care?

    Hello, all.
    Last night my power cord decided to abruptly stop working. Upon closer examination, I noticed that the flexible, plastic casing directly posterior to the rigid, plastic piece [that houses the pin] appeared to be showing signs of stress. I found this odd, seeing as how I'm terribly careful with my computer - the only thing I could assume was that perhaps, during one of my recent travels, the power cord had been packed in such a way that compromised the integrity of the plastic.
    Still, I'm surprised that something that benign would cause it to stop working.
    After wiggling it gently for several minutes, I found myself perched precariously on the edge of my chair, not wanting to move for fear of disrupting the fragile connection I had created.
    Needless to say, this is not going to work for very long.
    I was wondering if the iBook power cords are covered by the plan?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Not usually (unless it just quits working without signs of wear).
    "Accident or abuse" is not covered under AppleCare, and this would likely be considered to be one or the other.
    With that in mind, nothing ventured, nothing gained. It will only take a bit of your time and a phone call to AppleCare to find out for certain whether they will replace it for you.

  • Battery covered under Apple Care?

    Easy Question:
    My battery only last about 30 minutes. I need a new one, but I have the Apple Care plan. Is this covered, or do i have to buy it myself?
    Thanks

    If you check the fine print, you will see that Apple's warranty does not cover consumable parts such as batteries unless they are defective.
