[QUOTE="jeeypan, post: 1037801, member: 150819"] I used a 1/16" drill bit insert into the center of the tip of mini adapter, with twist (clockwise) and pull, I was able to fish out the metal tip from macbook pro 15. The center of the adapter was plastic with a hole for the fiber, the drill bit was able to bite on the plastic and pull it out. The better quality one has all metal core and would never break again. I bought it from Amazon for $0.01 [URL='http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002MQGRM/?tag=macforums0e4-20']Amazon.com: Toslink To Optical Mini Adapter: Parts Express: Electronics[/url] [ATTACH=full]12618[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
