Help My ipod got wet and won't turn on

Recently an accident happened where water was spilled onto my brand new ipod chromatic, I have no idea what to do and let it sit out to dry. Does anyone know if it wil work afterwards or something I can do to help/ fix it?

Water is bad. At least when it comes to anything that runs on electricity.
If you tried to turn it on immediately after it getting wet, you are probably in trouble. Everyones first instinct is to turn something on after they drop it in water or get it wet and that is the LAST thing you want to do at that point!
If you get any device wet, DO NOT TURN IT ON! You need to let is sit and dry out before you try to turn it on.
As for your specific case. Try letting it dry out completely, then try turning it on. Put it somewhere dry and warm for a day or two.
If it still does not work, you may be out of luck.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • My iphone got wet and won't turn on

    Yesterday, my iphone 4 fell into water .... it was completely submerged for about 10 seconds before I could remove it. It worked for about 5 minutes after it happened, but then it shut off and won't turn on. Now it's sitting in a pot of dry rice (people told me to put it in rice because it dries stuff out). Is there anything I can do? will it work again?? Am I doomed??

    Your phone is fried. You can get an out of warranty replacement at an Apple Store.

  • Driod incredible 2 got wet and won't turn on...will I lose pictures?

    Will I lose all of my pictures on my phone or will they be able to help at the store?

    Hopefully you pulled the sd card out right away.  The pictures should all be there.  My daughter dropped her DINC2 in the water and we quickly pulled out the card, powered down, took out the battery, dried the parts and then placed all the parts in a container with uncooked rice and let it dry out for 48 hours.  Her phone works fine and she didn't lose any pictures either.

  • My ipod got wet and half works

    my ipod got wet and still turns on but doesn't work when i plug it into my laptop

    Put your iPod in a Zip-Lock bag with Silica Gel Packets. Let it sit overnight (or two) and the Silica Gel will pull the moisture from the iPod, it's internal parts, and dry it out. Simply air drying does not remove moisture from the components. You'll find Silica Gel in with all new electronics, Tvs, Phones, etc. for a reason.
    Just google Silica Gel Packets and you will find a number of vendors selling!

  • HT4623 how to fix a iphone 4 that got wet and won't swipe to get in

    I need help my iphone got wet. it still works but i can't swipe to get in. I can still recieve messages and stuff. I put it in rice for 2 days but i still have this problem. How should i fix this??

    The damage has probably already been done since you powered it on after getting wet but... turn it off and put it in a bag of rice for 5-7 days.  It might work after that.

  • MY IPOD GOT WET AND NOW IT WON'T TURN ON! D8

    Help! My iPod was in my bag and my water bottle leaked all over everything and I had not discovered my iPod was wet until I got home. D8

    I've heard a lot of different theories on how to revive water-damaged iPods. You should search the forums--you will most likely get hundreds of similar posts. Methods I can think of off of the top of my head are:
    1. Put in a warm bowl of rice in a warm spot
    2. Put on a sunny windowsill for several hours
    3. (probably don't try unless you're totally desperate) put in a warm oven on a towel with the door open for a very short time
    These are only a few options... if you use the search option you will find many, many more.

  • My ipod got wet and now it keeps turning on and off.

    i got my ipod wet and now it doesn't even have enough power to charge. it just keeps turning on and off

    - Yes. Restoring the iPod erases the iPod.
    - Try a reset to:
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then restoring
    - Next try DFU mode

    - If you can't turn it off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for  at least an hour try again.

    Please help, my Ipod went through the washer and wont turn on now. I have dried it out in a bag of rice for 3 weeks.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • My 5G iPod shut down and won't turn on.

    I charged my 5th generation iPod overnight so when i woke up it was on 100%. i used it for roughly 15 minutes before i had to do something and leave it on the couch for 20 minutes. When i came back it was locked and wouldn't turn on, it just had a black screen. i tried to hold down the power button and not even a dead battery sign came up. i put it on charge and nothing happened again. When tried connecting to iTunes and my mac didn't even recognise that i had plugged in a device. I have a lot of stuff on there so i don't want to have to restore it. (I haven't synced it for a while) There is also no visible smashes on the screen and it was in the same position as where i left it. Please help.
