MPB 13" Charger has decided it doesn't love me anymore
Hey guys,
My MPB 13" charger doesn't want to work anymore...
When I plug it in the green/orange light stays a very dim green and wont charge my baby at all.
Used my friends charger and it started to charge just fine. Then to make sure I used mine in his and low-and-behold it wouldn't charge.
I purchased mine in December of 09 so I'm still under warranty.
So my questions are:
Is the charger covered under the normal warranty?
And if so what are the steps I take to get it replaced by apple?
Thanks so much I really appreciate any ones help!
Nath
Is the charger covered under the normal warranty?
Yes.
And if so what are the steps I take to get it replaced by apple?
Take it to an Apple Store and ask to have it replaced. Be prepared to demonstrate that it doesn't work with your machine and the store's own adapter (a floor demo) does.

I have a Macbook 2007/08 model and the charger has decided to pack in. I have also recently purchased a Macbook Pro 2013 model and would like to know if there is an adaptor available that I can use on my Macbook Pro charger to charge the Macbook.
You can get a new third party 60W power adapter on eBay for under $20.

Safari has decided it doesn't want to work anymore...
Safari was working just fine on my MacBook Pro 13" (10.7.2) a few days ago, until it decided it would not load anymore pages. The load bar stops a few cm in and stays there... also, when I open up Safari it freezes and presents me with the spinning wheel of death for a few minutes, then I get about 20 seconds of browsing time before it stops. Not freezing like its about to crash, but just stops loading web content. I definitely have good internet connection as I am typing this through a remote desktop connection via my university department.
This is a fairly common occurence, in the past I would either
reset Safari
empty cache
Restart
However now it just won't go away and the consistency of the described behaviour makes me think it won't. I have seen a several threads about this online, I have tried everything suggested including trying to delete various files in Library/Cache which of course aren't there on my computer (yes I looked everywhere).
Is there anything drastic I can do other than make offerings to Jobs departed soul, bless him? My thesis deadline is in under two weeks and not having internet is very stressing! I would download Chrome or Firefox, but obviously i can't.
I have also had separate issues with Office 2011 playing up in various ways, even causing me to lose half of my thesis at point, backups and all. I'm starting to wonder why I spent a grand on a peice of hardware that is causing me to go grey with stress in my twenties. I've been to the genius bar several times, they make an effort, but usually are useless. In the end I had to remove and reinstall Office, but still I get problems... sigh. Will there ever be an age of truly consumer friendly computers for code illterate numnuts like me?..
Any insightful hints from you technolords would be much appreciatedPlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
Launch the application(s) and test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) -
Crash! Dreamweaver CS3 doesn't love me anymore.
Here's how it first happened.
1. Using the file menu I copied and renamed an HTML file.
2. Dreamweaver asked if I wanted to check the links. Knowing
that this was a new file I said no.
3. I then double clicked on the file to open the HTML file.
Dreamweaver completely disappeared from my screen. I tried to
open Dreamweaver again. It started to load, I could tell from the
dialog box that it was trying to build the site cache and look at
the links. Then it just crashed again. At this point I was unable
to do anything, Dreamweaver would try to load that site profile and
just crash.
I've seen this before on older version of Dreamweaver (e.g.
MX 2004). So I went into the application data for my Windows
profile and deleted the Dreamweaver 9 folder (I had show hidden
files turned on). I then tried to start up Dreamweaver again. No
good. It tried to load the site cache and then crashed.
So I went to the forums and found an explanation of how to
remove the reference from Windows registry. I went under RUN typed
"regedit" went under the tree for the current user, backed up the
tree for Dreamweaver 9 and then deleted that tree. With the
application data also removed I tried to load Dreamweaver again.
This time Dreamweaver asked me to specify my preferences for file
types etc. It then tried to load the site that I was working on
choked on the freaking cache and died.
I spent the next hour trying various combinations restarting
my machine. At one point I moved the local location of the Web site
that I was working on. This gave me an opportunity to work on other
sites, as Dreamweaver was no longer choking on the site cache
(because it was unable to find the site). But the moment that I go
back to the other site and try to open up an HTML file it
Dreamweaver dies.
So I decided to reinstall CS3. It took a while but I finally
got it removed and reinstalled. No change.
So this is what I've tried thus far:
- Removed application data
- Removed registry data
- Removed "_notes" folder from the Web project
- Reinstalled Dreamweaver and CS3
Since I'm able to work on other Web sites I have to think
that maybe the problem is in my code. I think there's something in
either my HTML, CSS or includes that's killing Dreamweaver. But
I've used the same techniques for many other Web sites with no
problem. I am using some CSS hacks, Jquery, and I'm also using
virtual includes for HTML. But I can't see why this would crash
Dreamweaver. Here's a URL with an example of the page that I was
working on:
Example
1,
Example
2
I'm at the point where I'm ready to go back to Dreamweaver MX
2004, which really rubs me wrong because it's not like CS3 is
cheap. Anyone have some thoughts on what I could be doing
differently?I recommend you contact Adobe directly and use one of your
one-on-one
support incidents.

My iMac has decided it will no longer find my hp air printer?
MY iMac has decided that it no longer wants to find my HP air printer have tried to search for it manually but nothing is found, ipad and iPhone both connect with it straight away no problems printing from these devices just the iMac any help would be appreciated
Restart your router as well as your Mac and printer.
If that doesn't help, try wireless diagnostics.

I have a MacBook Pro 13inch 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM, 250Gb HDD, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, SD card slot, up to 10 hour battery life) bought in October 2010. The charger has been playing up for a while now - the light going out but coming back on when I move the cable a bit - faulty connection it seems. It has now stopped working at all.
Apple UK charge a whopping £65 for a replacement - and the reviews are AWFUL for it!
I need to know which one I need - 45w, 60w and 80w are listed - can someone tell me please? If I'm going to pay this price I want to make sure I get the right one!
Also, is a genuine Apple one available on Amazon UK, does anyone know please?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Meanwhile my battery is going down.....Thanks for that wjosten. Much appreciated.
I've read here on Apple's site that the 85W version will work, as you say, and that it would run cooler with a 13" Macbook - I have a 13" MBP of course but assume this would be the same with mine. I wonder if running cooler is a good thing (it sounds as if it is) and it would be better for me to get the 85W version than the 60W one?
Then I have to decide whether to pay the (extortionate as it seems to me, though I may be wrong) £65 from Apple (bearing in mind the rotten reviews here of the Apple product), or risk a cheaper alternative from Amazon UK, at around £20 (also with various rotten reviews)... Any suggestions? Please? :-) -

ThanksBoot off your *original* Install Disk while holding down the *d key*, (not c key), then run the extended Apple Hardware Test. Some disks require you to use the Option key at bootup to select AHT. Some models have a separate AHT CD. Some have it on the Disc #2.
The Memory test can really only be trusted if it finds a problem, not if it doesn't find a problem.

I upgraded my iphone to 5.0.1 and ever since, it has decided to delete old text messages. Only with one contact though, not everybody. So for every new text message I send this person, an old one gets removed. Why? I don't want this to happen.
Connect the phone directly to the computer, not a hub.
Disconnect all other USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Disable your firewall
Disable your antivirus
In iTunes if it recognizes the phone click "Restore"
If it doesn't recognize the phone:
Disconnect the phone from the phone end, leave the USB cable plugged into the computer
Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen turns black, excactly 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP but continue holding the HOME (If an Apple logo appears you have held SLEEP too long; do it over)
While holding HOME connect the cable to the phone
As soon as iTunes recognizes the phone release the HOME button and it should restore.
If neither procedure works note the exact error message and post it. -

So my I phone 4s volume has decided to pack allowing only my phone to make sounds when I have an incoming call, I can also here fine using facetime and receiving calls. YouTube, soundcloud, any of I players will no longer play sound. I've restored the phone using iTunes on my laptop and checked all the volumes are turned up and the button at the left hand Side of the phone is in the correct position.
Try inserting and re-inserting your headphones 7 or 8 times. Also try cleaning out the headphone jack in case of debris that might be interfering with the connection/disconnection.

Hi - for some reason, my IPAD3 mail client has decided it can no longer connect to my Exchange server. It's worked like a charm for weeks. Any thoughts?
For the record, I've got a POP mail account that is working fine on the machine and the WIFI is up and running (Safari is loading fine).
ThanksHi Jim,
Your issue is the most FAQ in the forums, it is an ongoing problem with Tiger waiting to be fixed by Apple. Till then, forget your aliases and use either Command-K or from the Finder Go-->Connect to Server and enter the remote Mac's IP address to connect.
Also, Open Utilities-->Terminal and type lookupd -flushcache (Press Return) and reboot. Do this for both macs.

My iPod doesn't turn on anymore. Even when I plug it into the computer or a charger, nothing happens. What's wrong with my iPod?
If you get an network timed out error, try disabling the security software on your computer.

I have an iPad Mini which after charging has now frozen with the iCloud Backup text box in the middle of the screen and OK 'button' registers when tapped but remain locked with nothing operating. It is fully charged.
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
