I thought I just had a duff one, but it looks like I am not alone

I've been using one of these adapters for a couple of months on my macbook pro with a suitable wattage power supply, but now find that it has become unreliable. I've been using one of these adapters for a couple of months on my macbook pro with a suitable wattage power supply, but now find that it has become unreliable. If I borrow a colleagues then it works fine, but switching back to mine results in pot luck as to whether it will decide to charge. The laptop detects it and switches to 'Power Adapter' mode, but doesn't actually charge up. I came to purchase a replacement, but having read the other reviews I will be investing in a new power supply instead.

Becomes faulty

Worked fine initially but started to lose connection and has now become totally unreliable. The light stays green indicating a full charge,when it's not, and i Worked fine initially but started to lose connection and has now become totally unreliable. The light stays green indicating a full charge,when it's not, and it won't charge. I can only assume the little pins aren't making contact. I've tried to clean it but it's made no difference.

WHY THE BAD REVIEWS

I'm starting to think there's some 3rd party maker of this product that is infecting this reviews section.

Might be a "duh" question, but it wouldn't work on a 2008, 17" MacBook Pro would it???
- Asked by shaina H from Richond

Best Answer:

No, that won't work. The converter only connects the fatter, shorter "old" style mag safe connector No, that won't work. The converter only connects the fatter, shorter "old" style mag safe connector to the newer, thinner "new" style. Breakage of the type that you described is common. Apple has some kind of special campaign -- google "apple magsafe replacement" and the link -- to Apple's support website, which link I am not allowed to paste into this message -- will be displayed.
