I dropped my ipod in the bath,

i accidentally dropped my ipod touch 5th generation in the bath tub. but i took it out immeadiately after wards. Everything works perfect but for some reason the sound doesnt work.... HELP.
thanks

You can try drying it out internally by wrapping the unit in a paper towel and putting it in a bag with a dessicant safe for electronics such as silica gel pellets, or failing that in a bag of dry, uncooked rice, for a few days. It's very probable that it's been permanently damaged, but it's possible that if you dry it out, it may then work. If after a few days in the bag it still has problems, then you'll need to pay to get it exchanged (by Apple) or repaired (by a third-party repair service) or buy a new iPod/iPhone.
Good luck.

  • I dropped my ipod in the pool and put it in rice for three days and now the screen stays white. what is the cheapest way to fix my ipod?

    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 drop my iPod on the floor and now I only can use the home and power button and the screen won't work

    I Drop my iPod on the floor and now the screen won't work but it looks perfect but when I touch it it doesn't do anything and the home and the power button work so can someone help

    Try the remaining items of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • What to do if you drop your Ipod and the top half of the screen is off and the ipod will no longer recognize your figure when you touch the screen

    So I dropped my Ipod on the floor and the top half of the Ipod came off and the screen will not recognize my figure when I try to swipe it to unlock the screen what do I do. But keep in mind that I have no money to fix it so how do I get it to work again?

    Likely because the drop broke something like the digitizer.
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I dropped my ipod in the toilet, I haven't fixed it for months. I didn't know you could put it in rice, or to not open it right away. Is it too late to fix it, or a place? The ipod is really important to me, it has been with me forever.

    I dropped my ipod in the toilet, I haven't fixed it for months. I didn't know you could put it in rice, or to not open it right away. Is it too late to fix it, or is there a place I could bring it to? I don't want to get a new one. The ipod is really important to me, it has been with me forever, and there is important stuff on it.

  • So i accidently dropped my ipod on the sement. i went to go get my screen replaced and the man said the ipod was already broken but he was the one who broke it. so what can apple do to help me?

    So i accidently dropped my ipod on the sement. I went to get it fixed. The man who was "fixing it" completely messed up my ipod. So now my ipod screen does not work at all. What can you guys do to help me? Is there any chance I can replace it for a much cheaper price?

    Is there a much cheaper price? What if i bring a 3rd generation ipod that doesn't really work and the 4th generation ipod that kinda works?

  • I dropped my ipod in the ocean..helpppp

    I know, how did I manage to drop my ipod into the ocean? Wel, I was running on the beach, and a wave came out of nowhere and took away my ipod. It continued playing even underwater, but I removed it from the water as soon as I could. Now, it doesn't work at all and won't turn on. Is there any hope?

    Very, very easy.

  • I dropped my iphone in the bath..

    I dropped my iphone in the bath. It dryed out, when i opened it to see if there was water damage, the white circle signs were still white. Now when i plug in the iphone, i see a battery with a lightning bolt but it doesnt seem to be charging. when plugged in to the pc, nothing happens... is it dead?

    If it didn't get wet enough to trip the sensors and void the warranty, you voided the warranty by opening it.
    Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and take your credit card with you.

  • Dropped my ipod down the toilet! it wont turn on but it charges...

    I dropped my ipod down the toilet about a week ago, and put it in a bag of rice for a few days straight away. I put my ipod on charge when i took it out, because it turned off when it was in the toilet and my lock button doesnt work so that is the only way it would turn on. it didn't turn on, but it still charges, as i can feel it overheating. any help on how to turn it back on? Will it ever come back on? Thanks.

    If not dry then dry in a sealed container of desiccant like uncooked rice and periodically change the rice.
    Do not charge or use until dry. Your iPod may be permenently damaged by trying to use it when still wet.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4GS. They do not fix yours.
