I'm using the 3 pronged charging switch with my charger. So, whenever I plug my macbook in, i feel slight vibrations when I run a finger over the aluminium area on the sides of the track pad. Also, the track pad's swipe gesture becomes pretty unresponsive. As soon as I remove the charger, all goes back to normal. I've looked this up on the internet but haven't found any solid information. It basically says that my house's electricity supply isn't grounded.

Is all of this damaging my macbook? Anybody else face this issue? What should I do?

Please tagg somebody you think might know the solution. Also, I should mention, my iPad's touch screen becomes unresponsive as shit as well when i charge it at home. It works perfectly though when its not on charge.

Thanks

Regarding unresponsive attitude of trackpad while at charge, I suggest to keep the charger away from machine meaning thereby dont fold the wire but ensure maximum distance between the charger and machine obviously upto the length of wire.

as far as house electric supply grounding is concerned it has nothing to do with it..

make sure that charger you are using has the ferrite core inductor in it, what it does actually it filters the harmonics and give pure dc output to the laptop...

Had a similar problem with my Macbook pro. Touchpad became unresponsive and erratic. Turns out the charger was the culprit. You need to replace it. And make sure you buy an original because the replica will just be the same.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
