So I left my comp on in the morning, set to make display sleep after one minute, do not let computer sleep. With magsafe connected. I just arrived home from work and my magsafe light was not flashing, I checked the electric port it was connected to. Was connected. Then checked the magsage adapter, everything was connected. And now I've just changed the wall connector it was connected and still nothing, however, everything else on that cable (it's a multi-connector) work so it can't have anything to do with the wires and etc.

So, I think my magsafe died. I have an hours worth of battery life left and Christmas and Boxing day are tommorrow and the day after, so everywhere is closed including my Apple reseller.

What the heck am I going to do?

Call Apple. They'll probably have you cross-ship, and you'll have it the next day (excepting Christmas, and possibly Boxing Day, depending on the shipping company they use in your country). Of course, it might not be the power brick...

You are of course certain that it's not just the light-diode on your macsafe cable that has stopped working...

Well, I seem to of shocked my Magsafe back to life, it electrocuted when I connected one last time.

And yes, before I was sure it was not just my diode.

But, now it is. After about half an hour my green light dies out, however, the menu bar still reads 'Charged' and when I unplug and plug it back it in, the diode continues to work.

This is incredibly troublesome.

I'll have the Apple rep. at my reseller check it out on Wednesday.
