Macbook Pro Charger Broke

Well, i am under AppleCare and the lead coming from the little white box (from the charger) to the macbook pro has come out a bit so theres a bit of wire being exposed. Not very safe.
Just thinking would it cost if I took it to the Apple Shop to replace/fix it? If i handed the faulty one in and they gave me a working one? £56 for a charger is a bit much...

Thanks, obviously ive not delibrately pulled it but i dont know if it has come out say when ive moved the charger or when it might of snagged on something?

  • MacBook Pro Charger - Intermittantly Stops Working

    Hi All,
    I have had my macbook pro now for just over a year and unlucky for me im 20 days out of my 1 year warrenty and now not entitle to upgrade to apple care because of this when i phoned techincal support
    The macbook pro charger is working intermittantly so it isnt completely dead.
    if i wiggle it around or sit the cables just right it will work but it isnt working 1005 off the time like it used to.
    I have a 2010 macbook pro with the L shape charger. I have manager to get another old style T shape charger off my friend which works perfectly with my macbook pro but will this harm my battery life because im using an "older" charger? but its brand new. also do you think its worth going into my local apple store in milton keynes to see if they can help me at all? as my gripe is you pay £1000 for a laptop and one year on the charger brakes. And i do look after my equipment. Its not like i throw it about or mistreat it.
    I think it could of happened early if i used it more.
    Is this a common fault?
    Thanks
    Daniel

    If you have bought AppleCare Extended Warranty, MBP is in warranty for 3years
    from the date of purchase.
    Best thing to do, is to take the MBP to the Apple store for evaluation and possible repair / replacement.
    Try Reset SMC.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Macbook pro charger wont work AT ALL!

    Words cannot even explain how furious I am. My 9 month old MacBook Pro charger does not work, all of a sudden!
    There is no damage to the charger at all and my laptop is in great condition. I need a solution and fast because this laptop has my whole life on it which leaves me irritated seeming i need it for my studies!! I don't know what to do, its 4am in the morning in australia and my laptop is completely dead! HELP!!!!!

    Take your computer and power adapter to the Apple Store when it opens in the morning and they will take care of it.
    This problem is often caused by winding the DC (computer-end) of the cord directly around the "ears" on the body of the power adapter. The "approved method" is to make a one to two inch (25-50mm) loop in the air, THEN begin winding the cord.
    I bought my wife an aftermarket car-charger for her MacBook. In addition to being able to use the computer for a while in the car, now we have a backup. If the regular charger dies, we can recharge the 'Book off the car.

  • Macbook pro charger- burning out.  surveyish?

    i have already swapped my macbook pro charger out twice, as after 2 months they tend to stop working, and the problem is the little place where the wire meets the magnetic connector. i know that bending it ruins its durability and life, so i tried to not do that. i thought i did it pretty successfully, until my first charger burnt out after it got extremely hot. it would stop charging for periods at a time, and there were places in the wire, specifically where it met the power brick and connector, where you could see right to the copper/ whatever the **** material it is because it got so hot that it melted the plastic. the apple store has replaced it twice, and i am about to go in for the 3RD charger. does anyone have a recommendation on something that would hold the wire still inbetween the connector and full wire? and who else has had this problem? there isnt a problem with the mbp, its just the connectors suck as5 and blow out.

    Ditto over here.
    My connector-cable junction has always been slightly twisted. It's a more complex curve than just a twist, but wasn't perfect from the factory for sure.
    The plastic jacket has now just torn this week and there's braided shielding and lots of unsavory bits showing.
    Oh, and it started to singe a cushion it was touching. It was starting to burn.
    Very antithetical to the "It just works" vibe.
    "It just burns" is more like it. =:o
    Seems like this particular Achilles heel didn't get much field testing before it was unleashed.
    Wasn't the Mag-Safe connector supposed to put an end to the whole problem of a $3,000 laptop being felled by a $1.79 connector/jacket on the AC adapter?
    I'm on batteries four and five as of this writing, so the topic of power management and the MBP is getting to be a rather sore subject.
    Will try to swap it out at work or might have to belly up to the Genius Bar.

  • Macbook Pro charger burned- help? (Pics)

    My Macbook Pro charger has been acting weird the past few days: not charging, getting really hot, etc. I went to charge my computer today only to find that the coating over the wires was burned and melted!
    I charged my computer last night while watching a movie and unplugged it before going to sleep. I did not use the charger today at all so it must have happened last night?
    I do not leave it plugged in without my computer attached.
    I have a 2010 Macbook Pro 13".
    Has this happened to anyone else before? If so, did Apple replace it? Could this have started a fire??
    Thanks, feel free to ask any questions if you need more info

    I guess - welcome to the club Just had mine burned - with smoke and smell. Good - I was working at home and I have an Apple Store nearby. Bad - $89+tx for the charger. Whatever was the actual reason - this must not happen. This thing can burn the house. Needless to mention that this specific charger - I was keeping it always at home and never wrapped the wire around it. Never in my life anything like this happened to any power adapter.

  • Macbook Pro charger Problem

    My Macbook Pro charger does not light up anymore when plugged in?  Have tried multiple plugs around the house and still nothing?  Problem with the charger or the computer itself?  do they wear out?

    Take everything in for analysis.

  • Macbook Pro charger broken still under warranty

    My macbook pro charger has a little split. The charger in still in the warranty period but I don't have the receipt. Just wondering will Apple replace my charger?

    Check you warranty status here:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    If the warranty is in effect, I should think the charger would be coverrd if the problem is not caused by abuse.
    Ciao.

  • Why won't my MACBOOK PRO charge anymore

    Why won't my MACBOOK PRO charge anymore, I am living in China and my 8 month old MACBOOK PRO won't take a charge!! It has now gone flat and I am out of a computer. I bought a new charger but that didn't work. This is ridiculous!!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    To check that the battery is damaged, open System Information or System Profiler (in /Applications/Utilities), choose Power in the sidebar, and copy here "Charge Information" and "Health Information". You can also check your battery status in the battery menu, on the menu bar. If its status is Replace Now or Service Battery, take your MacBook Pro to an Apple Store or reseller to have the battery replaced for free.
    If you don't see any of those messages, do a SMC reset > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • MacBook Pro charger overheating.

    MacBook Pro charger overheating replaced it and new one is overheating also don't know if its the charger causing the the problem.

    Yikes!  I assume you mean that thing some people use to smooth out their clothes?
    Are you still under warranty?  I would take it in to make sure it's not something on the computer side.
