Hiya,
I'm having some major problems with my power adaptor for my Powerbook (only like 2 weeks old)... I came home from work today, and it was working fine, was just running it off the main's juice. I then unplugged it, used my PB around the house, and then came up to my desk. I moved the adaptor to a socket at my desk and plugged it in... no light. So, I tried it in another socket... no luck.
First of all I thought that maybe the fuse needed replaced... but then I tried it with the standalone plug that goes into the white adaptor box (as opposed to the AC power cord which I usually use... still to no avail.
That, to me, suggests that either the white adaptor box, or the cord which runs from that to the PB has just decided to die. Apart from phoning Apple tomorrow and getting them to replace it (how long will this take?), is there anything else I can do? Thankfully I'm not writing any essays or anything... I'm just studying for a Spanish Studies exam tomorrow... don't really need the computer for that
I really really want this fixed ASAP, as I'm sure anyone else here would.
Thanks for any advice you might be able to dispense.
