HT5234 Is my MagSafe L-style adapter covered by AppleCare?

I noticed that the wire covering has been torn, exposing the wiring inside. Obviously my first question is whether or not it can be replaced through AppleCare?
Any ideas?

As CT said, take it in to your friendly Apple store genius bar and see...they will inspect to see the cause of the damage...two weeks ago a user was asking about replacement parts since his cat had chewed the cable, which is not likely to be covered

  • 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 .

  • Adapter covered by AppleCare?

    The adapter to my 14-month-old macbook seems to be going a little crazy lately - sometimes it doesn't charge when the battery is in, or the light flips from red to green over and over. If I bring it in, is it covered under AppleCare? Or does its warranty end when the first year is over? Does anyone know?

    The AC adapter is covered with either the original warranty or an AppleCare Protection Plan if you bought it with the MacBook.

  • 1-year old Magsafe L-style adapter discoloration...concerned

    I just noticed that near the adapter's connector the cable's casing is starting to turn a green color.  Is this something I should be concerned about? I really don't want to have to drive all the way out to the apple store if it is nothing. I just worry because I know that sometimes discoloration can be a sign that the cable's casing is no good and could be melting. I don't really want my thighs to catch on fire.....ya know?
    I don't have any pets, haven't misused the adapter in any way....and I did pay extra for extended coverage under apple care.
    Any thoughts?

    At the very least, if you are still within your one-year warranty and did not purchase AppleCare, call the support number and get your concern on the record so you are covered by your warranty.  Then if they say send it in or visit an Apple store genius bar, you are covered.  Or if it starts acting up you have a history of this question with Apple to point back to for support.
    All chargers and connectors get a little warm during the charging process since you are doing work on the battery.  They should not feel hot, however.  If it is just a little warm it is probably ok.  But I would call and get this on the record.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • BUZZING Magsafe AC Power Adapter pack

    My Magsafe AC Power Adapter pack is making a buzzing noise when it's connected up to the electricity! I've tried it in different sockets around the house and it's still making the same noise.
    Don't know if anyone can help or reassure me before i contact Apple UK
    Regards,
    Terry

    All that you need is a standard international plug kit. The adapter itself will work at any voltage. Apple has an international kit -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB974ZM/B/apple-world-travel-adapter-kit?fnode =3c.

  • 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.

  • MBP 15" Retina MagSafe 2 Power Adapter is extremely hot while charging?  Help

    MBP 15" Retina MagSafe 2 Power Adapter is extremely hot while charging?  Help

    Both the system and the charger are still under warranty. If you feel you have a defective part you should take both into apple to be checked out and replaced if found defective.
    I also sugest you buy the applecare extended warranty before your standard one year warranty expires, you can only buy it during the original one year warranty. Once that has expired you can no longer buy it.
    To fix any mac computer once out of warranty is expensive and even more so for the retina models.

  • I recently managed to get the whole casing of my 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2009) replaced due to a missing foot and dodgy spacebar. The lid is dented and scratched so would like to know how much it would cost to replace? I know its not covered by AppleCare.

    So i took my Macbook Pro 13'' (Mid-2009) into Apple because the spacebar was jammed and I had one of the feet of the bottom casing missing which was unusual (black circles). The unibody and bottom plate had a fair few dents and nicks and under AppleCare I was able to get the whole unibody and bottom case fixed for free. Saved myself a good £181!
    This now leaves my lid which has one or two noticeable dents and the bottom right part is suffering from several scratches. I was wondering how much a new lid would cost if I took it into Apple? I know it won't be covered under AppleCare as its accidental damage but want to know whether its worth paying for to have a once again dent free Macbook Pro .
    As a side note, do Apple upgrade your hardware at all, such as the hard drive or memory? I know it would be cheaper to do it at an independant computer shop or by myself but would like to explore my options first.

  • I have blue and green vertical lines on my iMac which is no longer covered by Applecare. Is it fixable?

    I have blue and green vertical lines on my iMac which is no longer covered by Applecare. Is it fixable?

    What model iMac? Could be a failing video card but maybe not. Is it that way on every screen, startup to shutdown, any time the screen is lit?
    Do you have an AASP nearby? Time to have an estimate made. Fixing it will likely be very expensive.

  • 30 pin connector covered by applecare

    is the ipod 30 pin touch connector covered by applecare that you buy for two years of coverage

    Just note that not infrequently damage to the dock connector is caused by misuse like trying to force the plug into the iPod dock connector with the plug reversed. Misuse is not covered by the warrant/Applecare.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and fnd out

  • If my iphone screen is cracked but it also has water damage will it be covered under applecare?

    If my Iphone screen is cracked but it also has water damage will it be covered under applecare since i need the screen replaced?

    Neither of those is covered by the standard one-year warranty.
    If you purchased AppleCare+, you may be able to get it replaced for $79+ tax; otherwise, you will most likely be paying $269+ tax to replace the phone.
