Need a piece for my power supply cable

So my mag safe power supply for my Macbook Pro has the two little "hooks" that pop out and allow you to wrap the cable around them for travel. One of the hooks broke and during the process of trying to get it fixed through Apple, by replacing the hook, I was advised you have to replace the whole thing.
I was wondering if anyone knew any place to get these little guys or had an extra one lying around that they would be willing to sell via a Paypal payment.
Thanks!

Alternative suggestion I gave to one of my clients: buy another power adapter, then use the "broken" one permanently at your desk. So rather than rushing out of the house, forgetting to pack your charger, instead leave one of the chargers in your bag. When you get home, you plug in to the "permanent" desk charger. The one on the desk would never be coiled up, or coiled up in a different way with wire ties or something. And if the charger is under your desk, well, out-of-sight, out-of-mind.
I've done this for years, ever since that first time I forgot my charger and blew my school assignment because no one on campus had a compatible charger I could borrow. While it is an additional expense, it's also a comfort that when I break the charger, I have an immediate spare, or have a second charger for troubleshooting.

  • Do I need a license for Uninterruptible Power Supply?

    Hello!
    I want to monitor some infrastructure devices with SCOM 2012. Tell me please, do I need a management license for devices like:

    3) APC Data Center Expert (APC monitoring server with Linux OS, which can be integrated with SCOM by using management pack from APC).
    Thanks!

    You dont need any specific licenses for monitoring these devices with SCOM.

  • No power supply cable for second hard drive

    Hard drive in PC is crashing mechanically.  Want to ghost a second hard drive before first drive crashes completely.   Bought duplicate of existing hard drive, but there is no power supply cable/connector for it.  Have SATA plug, but cannot power up second hard drive.  What do I do?

    LB1815, welcome to the forum.
    If I understand your problem correctly, this is the connector that you need.  It converts a single SATA power cable to two connectors.  This allows you to connect two drives with on cable.  There are many other brands available on Newegg.  This is just one example.

  • Looking for a Power Supply

    Hi!
    I am looking for a power supply for my sound blaster speakers.
    The model is SBS 380. The power supply works on a 4.0 volt.
    Anyone who would have a spare one to sell or to inform me where
    to buy one would be most appreciated. ( I'm in Canada )
    I have be been to several stores but no ones carries 4 volts power supply.
    The one I have is no lomger functional and the sound is excellent from those speakers.
    BTW, Craetive no longer support them and have none in stock.
    Thanks,
    Gerry

     Jason, I think he would have some trouble getting them shipped to Australia from one of those stores. Beside that it would be less from newegg, look at the additional 20% off promo and free shipping. For me it's 3 days from order to delivery from ZZf and newegg.
     Yes, one of the Corsairs but not HX but as mentioned TX or VX, also PC P&C 610. Ignore watts, go by +12V amps and as FP mentioned consider future need for more power when choosing. Nowdays the VX450W (+12V~33A) would be considered minimum to get and also would be considered weak for many current systems.

  • My Macbook Pro with Remakes funny noise when connected to power supply cable and no other response. The best description of the sound I can give is the buz the computer makes on startup. Sound goes on and off while connected

    I am new to the Macbook community. I own this Macbook since 10/2012.
    My Macbook Pro 15 with Retina Display suddenly totally stopped responding. No display, no activity on keyboard. When I connect power supply cable, the Mac makes a noise as if it is starting up, but this lasts a second and this sound comes and goes the whole time the power cable is connected.
    Any advice?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Yes the PSU will be ok. It's a desktop so you don't have to use exactly the same PSU. It can be even more powerful but make sure there are all compatible connectors. It looks like the CDR version is only 300W and the DDR 400W. The connectors are the same..

  • I need help to replace my power supply for the hp pavilion elite m9510f

    This computer has given me many problems since I bought it in '09. From graphic card fan issues, a hard drive crash, and now the power supply has failed.
    I did the blow dryer trick but it still ends up breaking a week later. I want to know what new power supply should I buy. One that will be able to fit in the hp pavilion elite m9510f and is an upgrade to the 350w that it has. Maybe somthing under 60-70 dollars if possible. Thanks for any help.

    It appears to be a normal case and motherboard.  A normal ATX supply should work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=50001333&IsNodeId=1&Description=Computer...
    Just an example of what is availble, but most any should work as long the physical dimensions match the one installed now.

  • I lost the power supply cable of my AirPort Extreme.

    I need a power supply cord for my AirPort Extreme.

    If it is the tall one, it is standard figure 8 power cable available in any store with electrical items. But not in white.. they are black and grey and even brown but never white. Also the Apple ones are top quality.
    If it is the flat one you are talking about the whole power supply. Any 12v 2A or greater with standard 2.5mm dc adapter will work fine.

  • Help a newb connect his power supply cables to the MSI Z97 XPower AC?

    My Background
    I am mostly a software kind of guy, and this is my first time building a computer. I saved lots of money, did lots of research, and picked my parts.
    So far, I've installed my CPU & Fan to the Motherboard, and mounted them to the case.
    Now it's time to install my Power Supply. Mounting it to the case is easy. The problem comes when I have to connect the cables. The manuals don't explain the purpose of these cables or provide "step-by-step" instructions.
    I've been searching for over an hour, but can't get a clear idea of what I'm supposed to do. So I'm hoping someone can help me here.
    Hardware
    Motherboard: MSI Z97 XPOWER AC
    Power Supply: Seasonic X-1250
    (EDIT: Forum does not let me link to the manuals, so for anyone who needs...please look online)
    Problem
    On page 29 of my motherboard manual, it shows 4 different power connection slots (JPWR1, JPWR2, JPWR3, JPWR4). Unfortunately, it doesn't explain what goes in them. 
    On page 59 & 61 of my Power Supply manual, there is listing of all the key cables.
    I think the "Mainboard 24/20 Pin" cable goes into the "JPWR1" slot.
    - So I am mostly confused about the other slots (JPWR2, JPWR3, JPWR4).
    - Also, it's confusing that there are two CPU cables called "CPU 8/4 Pin" & "CPU 8 Pin".
    Can anyone help me? 

    Quote from: myfamilyshopping on 24-March-15, 20:00:38
    Hi guys, I have a follow-up question about my Seasonic PSU "PCI-E cables".
    The way my PCI-E cables are designed is...
    There's one end which is a single cable with a 12 hole connector...that goes into the PCI-E port on my power supply.
    But then the other end splits out into two different cables, with each having a sort of 6/2 connector.
    So regarding the end that splits out into two different cables...
    Can each be used on different PCI-E devices?
    Or is it the case that because my PSU has 3 PCI-E ports (and 3 of the cables I described)...that only 3 PCI-E devices can be powered?
    all can be used however you plan to use them! all them connectors are tied to a single 104amp +12v Rail so they are getting power off a single Rail!
    as long as what you plug them into do not exceed the Rail's ratings your fine (would take quite a few Graphics cards to get above that) (basically if it works it works) (would take like 2 R9-295x2's or 4 R9-290X's to get to that point)

  • E30 power supply/cables and upgrading video card.

    I'm thinking of buying a decent gaming card, but I can't seem to find any power cables inside my system. The video card I'm looking at has a six pin connector on it. Also, just in case I need to upgrade the power supply, is the power supply unit standard ATX?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    welcome to the forum!
    the E30 doesn't come with a PCI power connector due to it only being qualified to run the quadro NVS, 400, 600, and 2000/2000D workstation graphics cards.   you would need a different PSU entirely.   due to warranty and support reasons we can't recommend aftermarket PSUs in this system.
    besides, depending on the GPU you're considering, the E30 might not have sufficient airflow to support it.   these are workstations after all and not gaming systems.
    similar advice was given to another E30 owner in this thread.   i'm not sure what makes the E30 such a compelling gaming platform but to each their own.

  • Power supply cable melting before my eyes

    I finally joined the famed club of the dead power supply owners.
    I've had several issues lately with my macbook (while never had any although owner of the very first release of it), mainly with freezing windows, slow reaction time etc.
    running Activity Viewer for the past couple days, I could spot mdmimport (Spotlight index daemon) acting quite berserk.
    taking up to 97% of my CPU (today it even said it took 128%???).
    anyway, I thought it was a fragmented hard drive, giving a hard time to index content, but the weird thing is that I regularly use diskwarrior to adjust the content disposition.
    a very weird behavior was that the laptop seemed to start hogging the CPU only on-idle (doesn't that sound a bit odd?).
    while the screen was black (after the screensaver timed out) the CPU fan was going berserk, and the power supply was sure close to melting point.
    I was saying I kept the Spotlight daemon under control, and noticed that it kept taking all the CPU time.
    the curious bit: what the **** are you indexing if maybe only 5 files have changed since yesterday and maybe couple dozens email?
    today we got to the boiling point:
    I work at some friends' office, go back home, use my laptop on battery.
    the battery reaches 3% and I plug the power supply in.
    no magsafe light going on, smell, the cable melting before my eyes.
    luckily I had some friends with a spare power supply, but had to get to the root of it.
    I decided to turn off indexing. ran
    %sudo mdutil -i off /
    the indexing of the main drive stops.
    I've been using my tiger for a few hours already with no visible sign of fatigue, delays, cpu stress.
    the cpu fan runs regularly but quite (consider it's a hot weather and my home is at 27ºC).
    oh, if you're any curious, do you want to know when all this started?
    mh... let me thing...
    with one of the most recent Security Updates.
    I don't remember which one, but it's not been longer than 10 days. probably a week.
    anyone seeing any light in this?

    I am convinced that the melting of the magsafe adapter in 99% of the cases is caused by improperly removing your power cord to many times. Don't pull!

  • Power supply cables

    In the upper expansion bay of the G3 DT case the power supply has some cables coming out of it. There are the larger 4-pin sockets for hooking up hard disks. Then there's a smaller 4-pin connector. Does anyone know what that smaller 4-pin connector is for? Could it be used for an extra case fan or blower?

    I also believe the small 4-pin connector is for powering a Zip drive.
    If you are looking for a power connection for an extra fan or blower, most come with a standard 4-pin connector for convenience. If you are out of 4-pin connector power out plugs in your Beige, simply buy a 1 into 2 plug converter. They are available in places like CompUSA, Rat Shack, and others. Also available on line.
    You are dealing with low voltage DC power, so there isn't a problem in splitting the supply from one into two.
