My charger has stopped working. What can I do besides buy a new one?

I have had my MacBook Pro since June of 2011. A week ago, my charger stopped working. I don't want to have to buy a new one if I can do something to fix it.

They are not repairable so you need to buy a new one. Between 4 and 5 years is a pretty good usage from a charger. Try to buy an Apple certified one as many here have had issues with cheap third party chargers.

  • I am running windows 7. My itunes keep shutting down on me. I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working What can I do?

    I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working. A problem has caused itunes to stop working correctly. What can be the cause?

    Hello Main Event,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I found this article while researching iTunes quitting unexpectedly on Windows 7 and feel it will help to resolve the issue here.
    iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    It starts with troubleshooting 3rd party plug ins, then moves on to account troubleshooting if needed.
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any inference with plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you see the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the Create a New User Account section below. If you do not experience the same issue, consult iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-insfor steps on how to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Take care,

  • I get the message "rnpag has stopped working" followed by "firfoxx has stopped working", what can I do to get firefox working again?

    Over the past few months firefox has been crashing unexpectedly but just today it crashed and will not reopen even after shutting down and restarting my laptop. The message that appears when I start my laptop and again when I try to open firefox is "rnpag has stopped working" this is then followed by the message "firefox has stopped working" when I request a solution to the problem nothing happens.

    You don't have "Photoshop" proper.  You have a cheapo emasculated version called Photoshop Elements.  That is NOT Photoshop.
    As Gene told you:
    Unfortunately, you're in the wrong forum.  This is not the Elements forum.
    Here's the link to the forum you want:

  • My touch screen has stopped working. what can i do to fix this

    what can I do to fix my touchscreen

    Rebooting your iDevice
    Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The device should begin to start up.
    If this doesn't work then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • My lock button has stopped working will Apple replace my phone with a new one?

    I have an iPhone 5 which I got in January of 2013 it is now October 2013 and my lock button has stopped and the camera seems to be depixelating I think, would Apple replace the phone with a new iPhone, I haven't dropped it, it has no major dents or drop wounds. Also as a secondary question, if they do replace the phone do I get the charger cable ect? or are no accessories included ?

    No accessories, just a perfect Replacement iPhone 5 exactly like yours, same color, same GB, everything the same.

  • Hi, my apple ID verification email does not contain the link for me to click in order to verify my account. Re-submitting has not worked, what can i do to verify/activate my account

    Hi, my apple ID verification email does not contain the link for me to click in order to verify my account. Re-submitting has not worked, what can i do to verify/activate my account in order to access Icloud?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

  • HT4061 I have an iphone 3gs - the new ios 6.1 (?) upgrade has inabled my phone. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple?

    I have an iphone 3gs - yes, an older iphone. 
    This morning apple had a msg that asked if I wanted to upgrade to the new ios 6.1 (?).  I said yes.  Now I can't use my phone.  I've tried hitting the power and other buttons.  I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple?  This *****!  I realize (now from reading internet) that my phone/system may be uncompatible.  Help!

    I have a 3GS (a true classic design!) and have upgraded it to 6.1 today.  The process did not go without a glitch - it took a few attempts to get the app's to sync but after detecting the ones causing an issue and deleting them it works - so far!  I have had issues about 50% of the numerous times a new OS is uploaded to this phone and always take the new OS with trepidation.  But at least you know there is a 3GS with 6.1 working OK.
    I suggest you do a fresh restart to the phone several times - without it being connected to the computer - to see if it gets its act together and starts.  I think it will.  Hold down the top 'power' button and front round control button until it shuts down - goes blank and dead.  Then press the top power button to re-activate - reboot - it.
    If that does not work then plug into your itunes computer, navigate in iTunes to see your iPhone and hopefully you will be able to sync it or at least 'restore iPhone' from the 'summary' tab.
    If you can not get onto the iphone perhaps you will still be able to sync if in iTunes by going - 'file' - 'devices' - 'sync iphone' or failing that try transfer purchases' and ultimately 'restore from back-up'.
    I had technical problems with my old 3GS (suffered a failed wireless antenna) so I took it to an Apple Store and they issued me with a service-replacement/reconditioned phone for a very modest charge.  So if worst come to the worst get a new phone that way!

  • HT1338 built in camera has stopped working, how can I update or reinstall the drivers

    Built in camera has stopped working, how can I reinstall the respective drivers?

    Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem, Stephen:
    •  If you have not already done so, shut down Mac, restart,
        and try again.  If the camera still does not work, continue.
    • Try ALL relevant suggestions from Apple's Troubleshooting
       article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    (Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
       If you need to use the "reset" suggestion, use the correct reset for your Mac.
    • Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the latest Combo Update.  For your Mac OS,
       the current version is at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera.
    • If nothing else resolves your problem, yours is likely a hardware issue.
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
    Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
