My Ipod got wet, now it will only power up when on docking station, is there anything I can do to fix it?
My Ipod got ran through a washing machine. I let it sit in a bag of rice for one week before trying to power it up or plug it in. When I place the Ipod on radio/alarm clock docking station the Ipod will power up and I am able to access what is on it, but it will reset itself every few minutes. Also it will not charge whil on the dock. I tried plugging it into the computer but it will not power up or register on the computer. Is there anything I can do to fix it at this point?
- After being connected tot a charging source for half an hour, reset the iPod.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Connect the iPod to your computer and and if it shows in iTunes restore the iPOd.
- Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow you to restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Sorry I missed that you said you dried it in your first post.

Phone got wet,now it's only showing the apple icon and sometimes connect to itunes
3gs phone got wet,now it's only showing the apple icon alternating with connect to itunes
You didn't connect it to your computer or to power, did you?
Wipe it down, put it in a baggie with raw rice or new silica gel packets and set it in a cool, dry area, like a cupboard. Leave it there for 3 - 4 days.
Take it out after this time, wipe it off, use a soft brush to wipe any rice dust from the dock connector, and connect it to your wall charger. Let it charge for at least 30 minutes and then Reset it while it is connected to power. May take several tries. If it revives fully charge it.
If this does not work you can do an out-of-warranty replacement with Apple for $199 USD. -

I just upgraded to OS X Lion and now I can't open the application Adobe ImageReady CS because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
There is no fix. It simply means that the software is outdated. Adobe would need to release a newer non-PPC version that supports Lion. They may have done that already, I don't know.

My iPod Touch is stuck. I can't get it to power off. All that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?
You may need to hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the apple logo appears. Or anther thing you can try is draining the battery until the battery is dead. That's what i tried and worked. You may need to do those things more than 2 times. OH anther thing is you can try connecting you ipod to your computer and see if it appears on itunes. If those don't work you can send it to apple. So that's what helped me I hope I answered your question.

My MacBook Pro died suddenly when I was removing a flash drive (LG up3 neon ps4) and is now both unresponsive and cannot be charged. Troubleshooting.... Is there anything I can do to fix it on my own? (There aren't any apple stores in my current country)
Hello antol1n1,
Sorry to hear your MacBook Pro is not charging or powering on. Sometimes a System Management Controller reset can help with the following charging and power issues:
Power
The computer doesn't respond to the power button when pressed.
A portable Mac doesn't appear to respond properly when you close or open the lid.
The computer sleeps or shuts down unexpectedly.
The battery does not appear to be charging properly.
The MagSafe power adaptor LED doesn't appear to indicate the correct activity.
To reset the System Management Controller on your MacBook Pro (with a built-in battery) , you can follow these steps:
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
You can find more information in the full article here:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

I hope this helps!

I used to be able to have thousands of pictures on my phone and now after my upgrade it keeps saying "not enough storage" is there anything I can do? I don't want to buy more storage
It says I cloud total storage 5.0 GB available 5.0 GB so whats the problem?iCloud storage is for backups. It is not associated with space on your phone. You cannot buy more space for your phone. Check what you have on your phone and delete what you don't use or seldom use to get more space on your phone.

I let my cuzin borrow my ipod and when she gave it back the screen was not responding, my volume button is pushed all the way in and the lock button doesnt work very well. Is there anything i can do to fix it or anywere i can get it fixed?
well unfortunatley your warranty is over so the device is not covered, BUT sounds like you have interupting signals being sent from a stuck home button constantly being pressed and maybe even a digitizer problem (the touch screen). You can try to restore your ipod to your computer to see if it might be some kind of software related issue. Just restore to the last sync you have on iTunes. But FIRST...I would try to Reset your ipod.
Go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset all settings. -
When I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my iMac, it will no longer allow me to use selected folders from iPhoto to run as my screen saver. Is there anything I can do to fix that? Thanks for your help.
Does this involve iPhoto i some way? Seems more like an issue with your web browser.

My iPod got wet, now front camera doesn't work
My iPod was in my pocket for a day when it was heavily raining like 2 months ago so I started checking if it was okay but it was wet so I wiped it and when I went on the camera the back camera was a bit weird but that went back to normal the same day, however my front camera is still broken. When I go to go on the front camera, the screen freezes and if I try to go on it through another app like snapchat or a photo editing app it either won't give me the option to do so or it will crash the app. Can this be fixed or do I have to just carry on with it not working?
The iPod has been water damaged...there is no way you can fix the problem. When it gets to be too annoying, or other functions fail, take it to an Apple store to get an out-of-warranty replacement. That will typically cost $99-249 in the US depending on the model and storage capacity.

I was camping this weekend and left my ipod in the heat and now it does not work. is there any way i can fix this or do i need to send it in to get fixed'?
- Try here first:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
- It could be only the battery since high temperature can destroy the battery.
- I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to see what your options are.
