Does anyone know where I can buy a new ac/dc cord.I bought this in June and computer goes black if the cord is touched or moved at all. Worse each day

It is possible the cord was bent or stretched beyond a point and therefore the copper wire must be internally cut/broken and the two broken ends might be loosely touching each other. Nonetheless you can buy a new cord for $2 - $10 over amazon or any computer store. All lenovo laptop cables are usually the same. You might wanna get a new adapter rather with which you would get the cord for free. This should cost $10 - $30. Good luck with your laptop. Hope your issue gets resolved soon. Alternatively contact Lenovo customer care line.

You should call it in for a warranty replacement if it is less then a year old.

It looks like this one will do it "Cables Unlimited 6-feet Mickey Mouse Power Cord" on Amazon. Or use this link: http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Unlimted-6-feet-Mickey-Mouse/dp/B000234TYI/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_8?ie=UTF8&refRID=0Y91G71EZTP47DZHXJQH Bill

Mine just gave up and I purchased a new power supply on eBay with the assistance of my husband. He looked at what was written on the power supply adapter, did a search and found the one I needed. Works like a charm. It's a black cord though. I looked at the iOmega site in the first place but they have been bought by Lenovo and they don't know anything so you're on your own.

Not sure but I have found that if the cord from the AC outlet is not plugged into the power supply that connects to the computer is not plugged into the power supply completely it won't charge consistently. The only other thing is your power supply could be defective.

Hi Susan, Yes, I had the same problem. The power pack just literally packed up. I bought the laptop Jan 2013 and by June 2013, the power cord/pack quit working. I called Toshiba and because the purchase was still within the 1year warranty period, Toshiba agreed to replace the power pack. I was asked to send the defective unit back while a replacement power pack was shipped to me - but not before I had to shell out $30 to purchase a replacement power pack while waiting for the Toshiba replacement - as I wouldn't have been able to use my laptop for the 2-3week period it took to get the replacement. All the best.

Good points. It's still relatively new, and I wonder especially how the hard drive model has held up. My new one arrived DOA, and now I'm really struggling over whether to ask Amazon for a refund or an exchange. This baby may be intended to be Solid State all the way, which means the hard drive models will be unwanted period pieces in another year or two.

1) Try a different AC connector/cord. You probably do not have one but if you bring you Seagate into a Radio Shack, they probably will let you try a compatible connector/cord for the possible sale.2) Go to Seagate support (www.seagate.com/support/ý)

I wouldn't think a different computer would be the problem. Can you charge it from an ordinary outlet? If this doesn't work, I would call Audio and get help. They are amazing, friendly, and helpful.

Check to see if the power cable is also in the same place also check ebay and try typing in the model number in the back of the screen itself dont go by the model of computer. After you take off the screen behind it has the model number

not sure, that never happened to mine, but a loose connection could be the cord....can you find a new cord online somewhere?

Contact the company for a replacement through Amazon Support. One of mine also gAve my PC troubles. In the future, I would stay away from this brand. TLDR: Contact through Amazon for refund or replacement. This can be done through your Orders page.

I would suggest going to like a radio shack that might be able to help u. I know wat u r looking for but i dont have clue on wat the thing is technically referred too. It should not be difficult to find its basically the same type of cord that was used back in the old days of desktop computers.

pull the cord out that you plug into the computer and then try the botton holding it in for the 2 seconds or longer that it says to hold it. The cord might be stopping it from contact. If that doesn't work contact the company you bought it from. I'm sure you have 30 days in which to change it out or send another one

My AC adapter just failed. I've had this netbook for about 3 weeks. My computer was connected to the power cord the whole time and i didn't even notice the adapter was off until the computer turned off due to lack of power. The adapter was cool to the touch and there was no physical damage either. Following this thread's advice i unplugged cord from the brick and threw the whole thing in the freezer. And IT WORKED, the blue light came back on and its charging now. I don't know if and when the power will fail again so I'm very nervous about making sure I back up all my files while i have power just in case the adapter fails permanently and I have to wait weeks, if not months, for another adapter.

don't leave it in a hot area, store/keep it in a cool place. Check the cord. You may have a short and need replacement. That's what happened to me.

I had the same problem. I bought a new cord, off brand, cheapo cord and it works great.

I found one on Amazon..but that wasnt my problem..it was the part that plugs into the wall then into my computer...It made it look like it was my battery but acutally after replacing that part with a Dell (other types didnt work) everything worked fine....but about two months later my batter did in fact end up dying...couldnt find one on Amazon that was right voltage..just like you...went to a computer repair shop and they finally found one on line for 15 bucks and it work great ..good luck finding what you need...
