My sister used the white vinegar trick and it seem to work.

has anyone ever attempted splicing a cord like this back together or know of any video post that are up on the web of it being done.

I already bought a new cord, but it would be great if I could fix the old one as a back up.

My cat likes to chew on them. Most annoying: she is somehow bending in the last section of them on each side of the vertical-running strings. I sprayed bitter citrus and showed it to her…and she still bends the ends in toward the window.

Thanks..

I also did some research and was sad at what I found… A lot of problems in the past and present with apple power adapters.
Give us something to be proud of would ya ?!

My first cord has started sparking, and I just began researching this (on my last battery charge.) I am shocked, just shocked (pardon the pun) that Apple has such a shoddy and dangerous product on the market, and charges $80 and 4 weeks shipping to replace it. This is Apple, right? I’m researching 3rd party cords now, as I don’t want my house to burn down again. (The first time was caused by dogs.)

And yes, my puppy chews through cords! Bitter Apple works, but reapply every few days, and prepare to get it on your hands. I bought a “As Seen On TV” cord cover, a kind of plastic tube that is supposed to contain and conceal all those unsightly computer cables. My hope is that by the time she gets through the outer layer, I will find her and stop the damage.
