How to remove broken power adapter stem from inside laptop?
And that’s probably why only Apple uses that obscenity of a power connector. I’m about to graduate in electrical engineering, and when I first saw one of those connectors, broken of course, I literally shouted “What the fuck?” I don’t think any regular magnets would work, but they also shouldn’t harm the computer. From a comment to the link above, someone is selling the parts to fix it and someone else has the instructions. (For 12″ model, 14″ model has different versions of the same thing.) That thing’s way overpriced though, but if you have Apple stuff I guess you’re used to it. I was going to say just open it up and see if you can get at the little tip from inside, which is possible with some connectors, but from the picture it doesn’t look as if that will work. If you’re really brave and don’t care about jury rigging
