Check your charger port is clean and have nothing metal stuck on it.
Go to any reseller or friend with a Mac, just plug in another charger to confirm there's nothing wrong with your Mac.

Ok so here what has happened

Went college, used lecturer's charger, can charge.

Then I changed the three pin head of my lecturer to my brick.

So now it's my brick and my lecturer's three pin head.

Switched it on, got pop sound, and now not working.

Took back the three pin head and fixed it back to my lecturer's brick not working.

Changed another three pin head to my lecture's brick. Working.

My lecturer changed the fuse in his three pin head and attach back to his own brick, working.

So is the fault on my adapter blowing the fuse in my lecturer's three pin or what?

I don't dare to try another three pin on my brick.

Anyways I'll walk in to an AASP and see what's wrong.

Overall, it is not laptop's problem, thank God.

Hi, Im currently using MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Bought May 2015 from Apple Online store). Noted the screen become stained today after clean with wet tissue and damp cloth, most probably damaged antiglare coating? First time seeing this happen. Such heartache. Warranty expired. Am i eligible to claim for a fix at authorized apple service centre? Noted similar issue with other Macbook users. Thanks.

I also read that Apple acknowledges this issue (though I dunno how is it like in M'sia) but I've never rectify it yet personally with Apple. Scared they might just take my laptop in and I will not have anything to do my work on

I'm also afraid the longer I delay the less chances I'll have on getting this fixed.

Like you, I also highly appreciate other sifus opinions on this matter

Edited : Found this thread and I'm gonna do exactly what the TS did. You should try too
