I've seen a lot of naive & experienced Macbook Pro & Air users struggle with tying and wrapping the Magsafe power adapter cord. This is a quick tutorial on how to wrap it the right way in order to carry it in the backpack with ease.
Apple has really put a lot of thought into the charger's wire management. The charger happens to be the most portable one among all laptop chargers. Good job, Apple. So, here are the steps.
Step 1 : Raise the 2 side hooks of the square box of the battery charger.
Step 2 : First take the thick wire side and roll it vertically around the square box. Don't stretch it too much on the first roll.
Step 3 : Now hold the rolled thick wire with your left hand so that it doesn't unwind. With your right hand, take the thin wire side (the side which you connect to the laptop). Roll this thin wire horizontally around the 2 raised hooks of the box. Make sure you don't stretch the thin wire. Just tie it around naturally, without stressing it out. The thin wire side is the most susceptible to wear and tear. So, make sure you don't put pressure on the thin side, so that it lasts longer.
The thin wire which is horizontally wound helps keep the vertically wound thick wire in check.
Take a look at the picture for reference.

Oh and just in case you need a new Magsafe power adapter, check Apple store which sells it USD 79 & Amazon which sells it for USD 73.99. You have a good day, guys. Ciao for now.
