Q: apple pencil lost adapter

For all you apple pencil users who might of lost the little female/female lightning adapter.  It took going through Apple Support  (twice) , Apple Sales, and then finally OS support chat to get the $5 replacement part.  It is not available on their website as an accessory  (neither or the apple pencil tips).  Don't give up it just took me an hour to get the part I lost. 

 

It is convient to have that part to charge the pencil, though not necessary.  I would think that they could make something more readily available for customers since it is so small .

    My iPad Pro purchase and accompanying accessories has been a horrible experience. I too lost the female to female adapter, which admittedly was my fault, I  spent over 45 minutes with Support, Sales, and Apple Care trying to obtain (yes pay for a new adapter), no one was any help and  I was told they do not sell the adapter seperately, did not have a part in the system for sale, and that I would have to buy a new apple pencil to get the adapter  !!  The adapter makes the pencil chargeable on a plane without impaling the person sitting next to you or sticking out in the aisle. Does anyone know who else in apple to contact?

    It's Apple P/N 923-00817 and costs about five bucks plus another five for S&H from Apple Care.  Amazon sells a USB to female Lightning connector cable in case that's easier (also 10 bucks).

    IIt's now available for purchase on Amazon for those who don't want to spend an hour on the phone with Apple.

    it costs $10.99, but worth not going through the hassle in my opinion.
