[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 767658, member: 24098"] Excellent advice. Due to the magnetic nature of the connector, it can easily attract little bits of conductive debris and cause a short. It's highly recommended that you check the magsafe connector on both the Mac itself and the charger cord to ensure that it is clean. Additionally, if you have pets in your home, make sure there are no bites or other damage to the cabling. And lastly, periodically inspect the cabling carefully to ensure that it is not kinked and that there is no separation between the jacket and the wires within. If it's damaged in any way, your best bet is to replace the adapter. [/QUOTE]
