I dropped my iphone in the water and now it is not working.  Any suggestions?

Turn it off and put it in a bag of rice for 5-7 days.  You may get lucky.

    I dropped my mouse on the floor and now it does not work.

    Try reinstalling the batteries, maybe they got dislodged. Other than that buy a new mouse, yours is broken.

    The genius bar folks will be glad to help...and if you have backed up your iPhone in iCloud they will restore the backup to the replacement iPhone for you while you wait.
    Call or email for an appointment, you don't want to add to your frustration by standing around waiting for someone to get free to help you.

  • HT4061 I dropped my phone in the toilet and now is not working.   What should I do?

    I dropped my phone in the toilet and now is not working.   What should I do?

    Put in in a bag of dry rice for a few days and see if that drys it out. Don't be surprised if it doesn't. You may need to take it to an Apple Store. They will offer you a replacement at a reduced price
    Hope that helps

  • I backed up my phone before i went on vacation. I dropped my phone in a pool and now it doesn't work, is there any way that i can get the pictures that I took on vacation off of the phone?

    IF you had icloud backups and Camera Roll turned on in Settings on the wet phone, then you can restore that backup to an iOS device, but not a computer.

    Once you get a replacement phone...
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.

    I suggested contacting Compub in Nassau St as the info is priceless and worth the trouble of trying to regain?
    Any thoughts? The poor lady is very distress

    If she has backed up her iPhone she can replace that iPhone and set up the new iPhone from her backup.
    You can put the iPhone that went into water into a plastic baggie with either new silica gel packets (preferred) or raw rice and let it sit for  4 - 5 days. After that time remove the phone and connect it to power for at least a half hour. While it is still connected to power reset it by holding down the power and hold button, wait for the Apple logo then let go of the buttons. Might take several tries. If it revives immediately back it up.

  • My iphone fall in the sea and now it's not working how i can take off my photo and numbers ? and do u thing it will be work or what plz help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    my iphone fall in the sea and now it's not working how i can take off my photo and numbers ? and do u thing it will be work or what plz help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sea water and electronics don't mix.  The salinity fries the internal circuitry of the phone. Your phone is toast.
    Certainly the user of any device which can be lost, stolen, or dropped in the sea would be smart enough to have had the data backed up, rght?  Your photos and numbers should be safely backed up on your computer or in the cloud.
    If you didn't do this, there's no way to recover those data now.  Backups are meant to be done BEFORE disaster strikes, not after.

  • IPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg).  It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working.  Suggestions?  Thanks!

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • I have a 16GB iPhone 3G and my screen will not work. When I have my sim card inserted into the phone calls go through, but I take it out and they don't go through. It was fine one minute and then the screen flashed and now it will not work. any answers?

    I own a 16GB iPhone 3G. My father passed it down to me a year ago after he got the iPhone 4. I pressed the sleep/wake button on the top of the iPhone to check the time, and as I did so, the screen flashed on and off and now the screen won't work. Whenever I put my simcard in there calls will go through but I am unable to hear them, but if I take it out calls don't go through. I've tried charging it for a while, connecting to my laptop, holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10seconds to restore it, but nothing works. I've looked around and no-one'ed seemed to have this problem. I'd like to know what is wrong with my iPhone ASAP. thanks.

    First, update iTunes, then connect the phone to the computer and do a restore. This will also get your iOS up to date. Your phone should operate correctly after doing this, if not, you will most likely need to have the phone serviced or replaced.

  • What do i do when i dropped my phone into the water and i cant get my phone to work again

    what do i do when i dropped my phone into water and i cant get it to work again. i tried rice and left in the rice all night and it still wont work. so do i have ti get a new phone?

    You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get an out of warranty replacement. Over night wasn't nearly long enough. Try more like 5 days to a week. But since you've tried to power it on while still damp, it's undoubtedly cooked now.

  • I purchased i phone 5 from usa and now it's not working please help me out

    Due to the craze i have over i phone 5 i purchased it online through e bay, actually i need a cdma phone as its not avaliable in india i have ordered it online and i got it in june from then my problems started i am not able to use it, I contacted the seller but it's of no use, I contacted the sprint network people today and they said the phone is active and asked me to consult apple india so please help me sir doing me the favor,really out of my innocence i have purchased it.

    There is no CDMA network in India - it does not exist and is only in the US which is what the Sprint and Verizon phones are. 
    If you purchased a CDMA US phone, then it is very unlikley that it will ever work in India.  It definitely won't work on CDMA network as they don't exist in India - end of.
    Not sure if the CDMA iPhone 5 has a sim card tray - if so, then insert an Indian sim card into it and you then should be able to use the phone with an Indian carrier.  CDMA iPhone 5's should have sim card trays that are unlocked.  If so, the phone should work in India, but other than that, you may be saddled with a phone that you can't use.
    If you purchased it on e-bay, then it is buyer beware and go and file a claim with E-Bay for misselling and return the phone.
    Other than that, this is a public user forum and Apple will not here you here.
    You need to contact Apple directly.

  • I dropped my Ipod in the toilet and now it's not turning on..

    Does anybody know if apple covers water damage on Ipods? I've tried looking it up and I can't find anything on it, I have a limited warranty that is going to ruin out in Jan. 2008 Someone please help??

    Trying to power it on may have been the stupidest thing if it wasn't completely dry on the inside... which you're unlikely to know. You have to let it dry someplace warm and bright for a few days. Seriously, keep it away from dampness or darkness. Sit it on a night stand with a night light, for instance. When you're sure it's completely and thoroughly dry, charge it up and try it again and I'm pretty sure it'll be up and running. It might be a little trippy at first and you may have to reset it a couple times, but I don't think it'll be fried if it's totally dry. Good luck!

  • I wet my i phone 4 and now it is not working

    Can someone help me my i phone 4 got wet slightly  while at the beach and now it is not working, it does not turn on.

    This is likely to happen when you get electronics wet.
    The worst thing you can do is try to charge it or turn it on, until it has had a week or so to dry.
    It is probably gone. 
    Let it dry for a week or so and see if it will turn on.
