my power cord is hot during charging is this normal?

I am currently in the Mexico, I noticed my power cord for my Macbook Air is EXTREMELY hot during charging.  I never noticed this before and wonder if maybe it's dangerous for the computer.  Also, is this normal?

Please respond by email as I'm not sure how to get back on the community site to find the answer

I am very new on this

Thank you!

  • iwatch very hot when charging

    My iWatch casing becomes very hot during charging. is there a problem here?

    Hi John

    It is normal that for watching, adapter sector and charging cable become hot when it is connected to the power.

    If your watch has temperatures above normal while charging, disconnect the charger, move to a cooler place and let it cool completely before putting on or continue to load.

    Also, make sure you reload it according to the instructions of load.

  • problems of ultra maxx charges with a power cord

    Sometimes my Maxx will begin charging when I plug, sometimes it requires a reboot before it will start to load. I tried a new power cord from Verizon and the results are the same. I got the phone because he is out, and the problem started a couple of weeks. Someone can offer some advice or should I go to? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    By a new power cord do you mean just the cord or adapter as well? If only the power cord that I suggest that you try using a different card first thus.

    Also make sure you have the USB plug inserted at bottom. You don't want to lift or turn it on, but push to make sure that it is firmly in place.

    If this continues to happen that I would propose a factory data reset. Who will rule on software issues. If the FDR works advertising repair/replacement would be the next logical step. HTH

  • Acer Switch 10 i. put powered w / power cord, power button + volume Up/Down ii. No LED light

    Problem:

    Power does not illuminate. 75% battery charge. A tried
    a. power switch button
    b. power button + volume Up/Down button for 60 seconds (technique of being able to be in hibernation mode)
    c. a/c power cord... light to show load or power not turn on AND the Tablet does not become hot... in other words, Tablet accepts no power coming from being plugged into an electric outlet

    Solutions to be able to put it back on

    1. perhaps central card mother battery died... Well, in the past my LAPTOP would work with single power supply and no battery... but... it is a tablet that works maybe like a mobile phone because if the battery is dead, then unit does not work until the Central battery has sufficient charge

    2. maybe an electrical circuit problem?

    3. may reset a deep sleep mode?   ... but already there is a technique of this situation and I tried it.

    4 perhaps, software power settings but if are unable to start. can't get to the BIOS.

    Thanks much for any help.

    Solution... it was an electrical problem, capacitor w / low-Volt charge had gone below this threshold to function, voltage decay over time.  Replaced.  Laptop as it has done before does not.

  • computer laptop power cord overheating

    I have a HP Pavillion DV6409us.  I got it for at least 3 years.  The first power cord it came with broke at the bend of the hook into the computer, ordered a generic replacement cord - he worked nearly a year and snapped in the same place.  Ordered the exact same generic cord in May and it now (after using it for 3 months) overheating where the plug goes into the computer.  It got so hot you can feel it and he put a black line around the plug (the real end of rubber around the metal was extremely hot - almost soft).

    I decided that it must be something with this charger generic so I bit the bullet and spent 100 for new sector and HP power cord adapter.  It has today - plugged and it got hot in a few minutes.  What is the cause?  Obviously this is not the power cord.  Laptop was working fine and now would be if I could charge the battery.

    HP sent me some letters that the batteries being recalled, but when I look at mine until it is not on the list but really don't think it's the battery anyway because he's hot, even if the battery is out.

    I hope someone can help me - can't afford a new laptop now.

    The DC Jack on the laptop is very likely wrong, use a flashlight and look in the plug for damage, there will be some or all of the black plastic missing in the central part of the CC.

  • Satellite Pro L500 - stops when the power cord removed

    Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 stops when the power cord is removed even with the battery to 100%. I removed the battery and all the indications associated with battery answer correctly. For example turns off, Toshiba Health Monitor also indicates when the battery is removed. If installed Health monitor indicates that the battery is at 100%.

    Someone please help. I have not installed anything new.

    Hey,.

    For me, the matter is clear: the battery can't hold a charge so the laptop will be shut down because it has no power.

    I think you need to replace the battery with a new one and you can get a provider of service authorized in your country. Simply contact the guy and ask that they can tell you how much it would cost.

    You can find a list of all FSA here:

    Good luck! :)

  • Portege M200 - connection loose in the power cord

    Hello

    After almost 5 years of intensive use (this is the 3rd battery which is currently begging for replacement...) my M200 still works fine - great device!

    However, the power cord has a bad connection for a few weeks now. The problem is located next to the DC plug. So, whenever I connect the M200 to food, I need to turn and bend the cable in order to reactivate the charge current. Friend of mine, a 2004 purchased another M200, exactly the same problem.

    Problem: The power cord is fixed on the transformer, and a new Toshiba 15V power is quite expensive (if you manage to find one, anyway...). Is there a solution to fix the cable (or get a replacement cable / repair kit) rather than buy a new power supply?

    Thank you!

    Florian

    Hi mate,

    AFAIK there is no repair kit for this problem. You must buy a new Toshiba AC/DC adapter because a cable can t be repaired.

    I know it's so cheap, but maybe you can get another compatible adapter AC/DC to an authorized service provider. Many AC adapters are compatible to different notebooks, so maybe a cheaper is available.

    Here you can search for an ASP to give them a call:

  • Satellite C660D - 181 Power Cord issues and can not read CD or DVD

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-181 and my power cord has had problems with the connection. I plugged it in and the light on the left indicating it is plugged in and charged off and my cell phone begins to lose his load.

    I must escape around and try to get it just in the right position to show him it is plugged. I have it plugged into an extension of the Strip which is connected to the main outlet (and the only outlet) in the room.

    I use it exclusively in the living room so I'm close to the telephone and TV, so move it to another room will not be the answer. I'm afraid that the repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now.

    Another question, I'll have, it's that I can't read a CD or a DVD. I have Windows Media Player and Apple Quick time Player. I chose to play the media instantly, but it still does not work. I installed cc registry cleaner to see if it was a registry problem, but no joy there. I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit.

    The most important issue to address at the moment is the power supply cord. I appreciate your help. Please, profane as computer jargon escapes me.

    > I worry that repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now
    What is this option? You want to fix it yourself?
    Don t think that it s a real option since you would need good parts, hand tools, maintenance and find out how to fix it.

    Since you and I don t know exactly the cost of repair, I would recommend first asking how this fix could be I mean, you can request a service in your country for a price and could decide if its worth for you

  • Want J020dx: Power cord for HP Envy 17 "J020DX question, urgent pls!

    Hi all

    I have a HP envy 17 "J020dx, and now I'm in Australia, where I couldn't use the previous/power cord, and the problem is I could not find the adapter Plug and will be stuck in this situation for a while.

    I managed to find another power cord that fits into my diet, but said cord 2. 5A / 250v while the previous cord was 7 a/125 v, Australia 240V voltage.

    Sorry, I could not remember the requirement of entry written on my power adater ampere, but the voltage is 100-240v.

    It is, it will work cord aussie safely? Thank you very much!

    Hello

    Your question gave me a chance to look at my laptop at home now. %0% of them use 2. 5A - 240V cords others use a 5, 7. 5a and 10 to the cords. I also turned my HP Envy 17 t loan charger and requires 1.5 a entry. What I see: 2.5 a input cord 1. 5A charger is ok.
