Dropped it in the pool
i had my ipod touch ( 4th gen ) in my pocket, and took a dip in the hottub. i put it in the sun and over the air conditionor for almost 3 days, and feels completely dry. i even shook it and heard no water. i tried turning it on, but nothing happened. so, i plugged it into my pc ( dell, if it helps to know ) , but itunes didnt come up automatically like it usually does. then, i brought up itunes myself, and my ipod didnt show up under devices. i left it there for about 2 hours, and nothing changed. pleeeeeeeeease help me.
p.s ive only had it about 6 months
No way to help you. If the device is powered off immediately after being submerged in water and allowed to dry thoroughly on the inside, the chances are improved for being able to use it again, but is no guarantee. Not hearing water when shaken does not ensure no moisture remains on the inside, and it doesn't take much to cause damage.

Since you aren't using any Apple products, then, you really should take this question up on a web site oriented to the Pantech. AT&T maintains a forum here where you may be able to find help:

i dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and the screen just stays white now. what is the cheapest way to fix thiss?
There are companies that specialize in data retrieval but it's costly (probably cheaper to buy a new iPod) and more than likely as Allan said, your circuits are probably damaged beyond all hope of retrieving anything. It's worth calling Apple you maybe able to get a discount or a refurbished iPod. Can't hurt to ask, Good luck. (And in the future... no texting in the john.) Sorry, couldn't resist it.

I dropped my i phone in the pool
Hi i dropped my phone (with no case) in the pool And its completely fine but it keeps saying "this cable is not certifited" and i dont have a cable in my i phone 5 plz help
The store won't fix it. The interior of the iPhone got wet and electronics and a little water or moisture don't mix much less being completely submerged in water. Drying the outside alone and leaving the iPhone powered off was not near enough for any chance at salvaging it. It may work for a while but only a matter of time.
Apple offers and out of warranty or not covered under the warranty repair price, which pays for exchange at a significantly reduced price off the full retail sales price. -

Dropped the device (3 week old) in the pool! What should I do?
Take the battery out and place the device & battery in a box of dry white rice for about 4-5 days. Immediately.
Don't check it everyday. Leave it in the rice the entire time.

If you drop your ipod in the pool will the cameras ever work again
I droped my iPod touch 4g in the pool and put it in rice. It works again but the cameras dont. I just was wondering if my cameras are able to be fixed?
If the iPod is now dry and if yo have the problem after restoring to factory settings/new iPod then there is hardware damage.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB one and $99 for the others. They do not fix yours.

If all else fails make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement for $149 USD. -
My ipod got dropped in the pool will it still work?
My ipod fell in the pool and right now i have it soaking in rice. it still won't turn on and i even tried to blow dry it on low. the ipod wont turn on. Any help?
If it was pure water your iPod fell into, you might have gotten lucky, but I'd wager the pool is chlorinated and your iPod is dead.
The thing is, pure or distilled water is not a very good cunductor of electricity because there are no free ions to carry electrons, and this is especially true for low voltages like those from an iPod battery. Adding impurities like Chlorine, table salt, sea salt, bases like caustic soda (Lye), or acids like sulfuric acid (used in car batteries), will dramatically increase the conductivity which increases the amount of current flow.
Thus, when the iPod is immersed in this solution (which we can now call an electrolyte) electrons from the battery can go to places they aren't meant to, ruining the device in the process.
Another problem with immersing an iPod, or any device that has an LCD or Liquid Crystal Display, is that by itself, water will ruin the display. -
When I go the drop down from the address window, rather than showing the URL of the website I want open in a second tab it says "Switch to tab." But I don't want to switch to the tab - I want to open a second tab on the same URL. If I want to open it a second time I have to manually key in the address. Is there some way to turn this off so I can open up the second tab using the same address from the drop down? I have always been able to do this with previous versions of Firefox.

How to add new increase the pool rather then trowing a error.
Im trying to build a game and after many attempts and hours of thinking i did manage to create something that looks like a game.The problem now is that there are so many objects that are constantly creating and removing from the stage. that the game is starting to slow down(it is laggy.).So i have searched the net and understood that i will have to use a "Object pooling Method" rather than creating and removing the objects after i dont have any use of them any more, if i want to make the game more memory friendly.
At first i didnt want to use this method (object pooling) ,but after a while i understood that i dont have a lot of options.So i started to search how and why and how.
Yet in this example im just trying this for the bullets (for now) cause if i can do it for them, i can manage to do it for other objects and projects (it will be simple for me to understand what is happening ., what am i doing , when do i add an existing object from the pool and when im creating a new one(when there are non left, things like this)
i did copy some part of this code from a tutorial that i found in the net but , from then i dont know how to increase the pool rather than throwing this error. I did try to create a new object or to increase the pool length but .... it is not working so im sure that im not doing something the way it must be done.
so i have this so far :
its a "simple" pool that calls a simple shape class (circle dot) and gives that to the main stage when the "SPACE" button is pressed
package
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.Shape;
public class Bullet extends Sprite{
public var rectangle:Shape = new Shape();
public function Bullet(){
super();
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
graphics.drawRect(-5, -5, 10,10);
graphics.endFill();
private function init(event:Event):void{
the SpritePool where i cant figure out how to replace the throw new error with some new code that will increase the pool
package {
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
public class SpritePool {
private var pool:Array;
private var counter:int;
public function SpritePool(type:Class, len:int) {
pool = new Array();
counter = len;
var i:int = len;
while (--i > -1) {
pool[i] = new type();
public function getSprite():DisplayObject {
if (counter > 0) {
return pool[--counter];
} else {
throw new Error("You exhausted the pool!");
public function returnSprite(s:DisplayObject):void {
pool[counter++] = s;
and the Game class (the documents class)
package {
import flash.ui.Keyboard;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.Shape;
public class Game extends Sprite {
private var ship:Shape;
private var bullets:Array;
private var pool:SpritePool;
public function Game() {
Assets.init();
addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
private function init(event:Event):void {
pool = new SpritePool(Bullet,10);
bullets = new Array();
ship = new Shape();
ship.graphics.beginFill(0xFF00FF);
ship.graphics.drawRect(0,0, 60, 60);
ship.graphics.endFill();
ship.x = stage.stageWidth / 2 - ship.width / 2;
ship.y = stage.stageHeight - ship.height;
addChild(ship);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onDown);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
private function onDown(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.SPACE) {
var b:Bullet = pool.getSprite() as Bullet;
b.x = ship.x + ship.width / 2;
b.y = ship.y;
addChild(b);
bullets.push(b);
trace("Bullet fired");
private function loop(event:Event):void {
for (var i:int=bullets.length-1; i>=0; i--) {
var b:Bullet = bullets[i];
b.y -= 10;
if (b.y < 0) {
bullets.splice(i, 1);
removeChild(b);
pool.returnSprite(b);
trace("Bullet disposed");
any suggestions/help how to do itTo put you on the path (the errors/events needs formalization), here would be a quick example. Your pool class:
package
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
public class SpritePool
private var pool:Array;
private var counter:int;
private var classRef:Class;
// public get to know what's left in the pool
public function get availableObjects():int
return counter;
public function SpritePool(type:Class, len:int)
classRef = type;
pool = new Array();
counter = len;
var i:int = len;
while (--i > -1)
pool[i] = new classRef();
public function getSprite():DisplayObject
if (counter > 0)
return pool[--counter];
else
throw new Error("PoolExhausted");
public function returnSprite(s:DisplayObject):void
pool[counter++] = s;
public function increasePool(amount:int):void
counter += amount;
while (--amount > -1)
pool.push(new classRef());
public function decreasePool(amount:int):void
if (counter >= amount)
counter -= amount;
pool.splice(counter - amount,amount);
else
throw new Error("PoolDecreaseFail");
Now you'd need to be catching those errors. Again, the errors should be formalized or you could use events by extending IEventDispatcher. I kept it simple.
Here would be the simple Bullet class I'm using:
package
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Bullet extends Sprite
private var bullet:Sprite;
public function Bullet():void
var bullet:Sprite = new Sprite();
bullet.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000,1);
bullet.graphics.drawCircle(-5,-5,10);
bullet.graphics.endFill();
addChild(bullet);
Just draws a red circle just to visualize it..
Here would be a full example of using it. It will import both of these classes (saved as SpritePool.as and Bullet.as in the same folder). Paste this in the actions panel on frame 1:
import SpritePool;
import Bullet; // a simple red 10px circle
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.utils.setTimeout;
// fill the pool, swim trunks optional
var pool:SpritePool = new SpritePool(Bullet, 10);
// grab some objects from the pool
// array of currently held objects
var myBullets:Array = new Array();
while (pool.availableObjects > 0)
myBullets.push(pool.getSprite());
// display in random positions
for (var i:int = 0; i < myBullets.length; i++)
addChild(myBullets[i]);
// position
myBullets[i].x = int(Math.random()*stage.stageWidth);
myBullets[i].y = int(Math.random()*stage.stageHeight);
trace("myBullets has " + myBullets.length + " bullets! pool has " + pool.availableObjects + " left.");
// now I want one more, but I should check for errors
try
// fail, none left!
myBullets.push(pool.getSprite());
catch (e:*)
// this should be a custom event, but for speed, quick and dirty
if (e == 'Error: PoolExhausted')
trace("D'oh no more bullets! I need more!");
pool.increasePool(10);
trace("Added 10 more, now available in pool " + pool.availableObjects);
// try to reduce the pool by 15, which should error
try
pool.decreasePool(15);
catch (e:*)
// again should be a formal error
if (e == 'Error: PoolDecreaseFail')
trace("Oops, can't reduce pool by 15! Let's trim all extras, available is " + pool.availableObjects);
// we know it'll work, no error checking
pool.decreasePool(pool.availableObjects);
trace("Left in pool: " + pool.availableObjects);
// now lets wait 5 seconds and remove it all back to the pool
setTimeout(ReturnToPool,5000);
function ReturnToPool():void
// now let's just return all the objects to the pool
while (myBullets.length > 0)
removeChild(myBullets[myBullets.length - 1]);
pool.returnSprite(myBullets.pop());
// now check the pool, should have 10
trace("Amount of bullets in use " + myBullets.length + ", in pool " + pool.availableObjects);
For ease you can just download my example source (saved down to CS5).
Anything from here is just symantics. For example instead of throwing an error because the pool is too small you could simply increase the pool by a fixed amount yourself and return the objects requested.
To keep objects as low as possible you could use a timer to measure the amount of objects in use over a duration and reduce the pool appropriately, knowing the pool will grow as it needs.
All of this is just to avoid unnecessary object creation.
BTW here's my trace which should match yours:
myBullets has 10 bullets! pool has 0 left.
D'oh no more bullets! I need more!
Added 10 more, now available in pool 10
Oops, can't reduce pool by 15! Let's trim all extras, available is 10
Left in pool: 0
(after 5 seconds)
Amount of bullets in use 0, in pool 10 -
How can I restore my bookmarks, and the Firefox drop-down in the top left?
I cannot use Firefox as I always used to.
It has lost all of my Bookmarks Bar, so I cannot go to, for example, my email link.
It goes straight to a full screen display of my (Google) homepage and won't let me see the old Firefox drop-down in the top left corner.
How can I get any Firefox help?
I can just about survive using Internet Explorer - is that what Mozilla want?
oh, it's back now. what happened?Hello,
you can easily move the Bookmark icon to left using the Customize feature from the Menu [[Image:New Fx menu]] button on the Right top corner.

How to use the drop event of the tree control in LabVIEW 8.20?
Hi,
I am using the two tree controls in my application to provide a option for the user to drag and drop item from one tree to the other. I have to validate the user selection. I tried to capture the user drop event using the event structure. The problem I am facing is, I am not able to drop the item even though i have wired a constant true to the filter(Accepted?) in the event case. I have enable the property(Allow droping) in the right menu of the tree control also.
While configuring an event case for (drop, drag entered and some thing like this) only I am getting the problem otherwise it is working fine.
What do i need to do to caprture the drop event ?
Is there any way to avoid the item duplication while droping a new item in the tree control ?
or how can i do this?
Thanks,
Pandiarajan RHi Pandiarajan,
I hope you are doing well today! There is a lengthy discussion on the Tree Control Drag & Drop feature at this forums post including contributions from the developer of the Drag & Drop feature:
Tree Control Drag & Drop in LabVIEW 8
By avoiding item duplication, do you mean that you don't want the same item to be in the old tree control or do you not want more than one item in the new tree control?

How do I add a drop shadow to the page in Muse?
How can I apply a drop shadow to the page template in Muse? If I place a rectangle it will not change shape according to the page size. Is this a feature?
Hello,
You're most possibly referring to "Favicons", and they can be added in a Muse site from the "File -> Site Properties -> Layout" section. Check this screenshot: http://jingsite.businesscatalyst.com/jing/2013-09-05_2332.png

After updating AVG anti-virus, I encountered a problem on Firefox. I would select a link from the drop down on the address bar but the page would not open after clicking on it. I would select it again, even double click, but the page does not open. I could only reach website by selecting google or yahoo from my dropdown on the most visited list and then click the website that I want to visit. I would like to do this in one step by just selecting a link from my history on the address bar and select a link instead of going to google and then writing the page I want to visit. What could be the problem? When going to the address bar to select a link to open, why does the site not open? Any help would be appreciated.
