How can I prevent the power and HDMI cables from being pulled out of the USB-C connector on MacBookPro?
The cable can come out just with the weight of the cable, moving the MacBook inadvertently on the desk a few millimetres disconnects immediately.
Just now I must have messy sticky tape across the cables and over the edges of the MacBook to prevent this. Never had this hassle with standard USB.
MacBook Pro
I thin I saw OWC selling something that retained them.
MacBook Pro 13” 2017
The problem is the USB-C connector design as the cables are not securely held in place
Yes, the ClingOn, tried that first, it just falls off as there is not enough flat surface on the edge of the MacBook to support it. It can't be superglued on as it is pulled of as its spongy plastic
It works for the large flat surrounding surface of the iMac but there is not enough on the edge of the MacBook to support the ClingOn
Thanks anyway

Gary Scotland, you posted a picture, but not the link to the discussion.
If the discussion had more explanation, could you post its link as well?
what model-year MacBook Pro?
what screen size?
how many Thunderbolt/USB-C ports total?
