PLUGs are on the ends of cables.


Holes in the side of your Mac where you insert plugs are called JACKs.


The standard configuration is with all jacks not blocked. If the jack is blocked, somebody put a foreign object in it. You need to remove it or find someone who can.


If the plug does not fit, are you certain it is the correct plug for that jack? does it have the thunderBolt next to that jack? is your USB-C cable an oval plug?
