Might be a "duh" question, but it wouldn't work on a 2008, 17" MacBook Pro would it???

Somehow the magnetic head of my 85W (model A1222) power adapter tore. It will charge but I have to jiggle it a bit to stay. I was hoping the MagSafe 2 converter would fit this particular portal.

    No, that won't work. The converter only connects the fatter, shorter "old" style mag safe connector to the newer, thinner "new" style.

    Breakage of the type that you described is common. Apple has some kind of special campaign -- google "apple magsafe replacement" and the link -- to Apple's support website, which link I am not allowed to paste into this message -- will be displayed.
