I got my iPhone 5 wet and now it wont work. Its been 24 hours without me trying to turn it on what should i do

Can anyone help me? I still have a warrenty on it but i want to to keep this one.

You should leave the power off and put it in a sealed bag of uncooked rice for 3-5 days. After that, you can try and charge and use the phone. It it got too wet, then you won't have much choice but to purchase a new device. If you have AppleCare+, it would cover this with a $49 deductible. Otherwise, water damage is not covered under warranty and you could purchase an out of warranty (OOW) replacement. In the US they are $229 each.

  • Just got new hard drive and now itunes wont work

    I had my hard drive replaced in April and started having problems right away. I finally had a chance to bring it in today and they replaced the hard drive again. I don't have an external hard drive so I couldn't back up my music that way, so I tried using CDs and that didn't work either. At the store, the guy that was helping me suggested I use a flash drive. So, he did that for me. He said when I set up the computer I should open the flash drive first and drag and drop the saved music into the music folder and then open itunes. I did the first part but when I opened itunes I got a message saying "The file 'itunes library' cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of itunes.
    Does anyone know what that means? itunes wont open at all and I can't even listen to my old music. Any help would be appreciated.

    Did you try using the File>Add to Library option? I would dump everything you put in the music folder, since it's not recognizing it, and then try to re-import it using that option.
    Technically, the prompt means that you're using, for example, iTunes 7 to try to open a file that iTunes 9 created, and it won't be able to do it. Do you know what version of iTunes you used to create the original file, and which version you're using now? It's hard to imagine the one you're currently using is older than the one creating the file.

  • Just got an iphone 4s and the ringer wont work when called the sound  works fine just not when called or texted

    phone not ringin

    Ok...I have been working with it for over an hour.  I already did every single thing humanly possible to fix the problem.  Finally figured out that the switch is defective.  The mute switch on the side will mute the phone just fine, but it will not switch back to UNMUTE.  jiggled it a little and it will switch into unmute, but it is very touchy.  all the way down is mute, obviously...but all the way up is ALSO mute.  it has to be "balancing" in the middle of the two extreemes in order to give sound to the phone...and is literally on a "hairpin" trigger so to speak and will switch itself back into mute with out even being touched.

    Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.

  • I updated my iphone to the ios6 and now it wont work.

    i updated my iphone to the ios6... and now it wont work at all.
    it wont even turn on, it keeps going back and forth between the black screen and then the apple mark pops up for a few seconds, and then turns back to the black screen again... and that just keeps going on...
    someone please help...

    Seems like ios6 isn't any good for any of their devices. I have an iPhone 4 and recently updated to ios6 and have had all the wifi problems and apps getting hung up on load screens. Restore is your best bet and downgrade if you can back to ios 5.1. If restore doesn't help with a fresh install of ios6 then call every Apple support number you can find and be heard like the 1,000s of other people like us with ios6 problems demanding support. There doesn't seem to be any quick fixes for ios6 other than an update from Apple.

  • Downloaded IO5 to my 3gs and now it wont work

    I just tried to download IO5 to my 3GS and now it wont work, boots up in Japanese or maybe arabic and wont let me do anything, was working OK before the download, Itunes says "no sim card present"
    Please help

    Keep trying. The update server is overloaded. You will eventually get through and your update will continue where it left off.
    I got the error message about 12 times before it finally connected and continued.

  • The new itunes update will not install properly and now itunes wont work at all

    k, so I tried installing the new update for itunes and now it wont work at all. it says that the mobile device isnt installed. i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 4 times now.

    My issue is it wont even reinstall onto my computer
    Yes I'm aware of that. The procedures are also for trying in cases where iTunes can't be reinstalled due to a "Could not start Apple Mobile Device service" message.
    If you're getting a different error message relating to the Apple Mobile Device Service (or Apple Mobile Device Support) when you try to reinstall iTunes, post back to let us know what that error message says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I accdently formated my shuffle and now it wont work what do i do?

    I accdently formated my shuffle and now it wont work what do i do?
    That and when I plug the shuffle in to the comp iTunes doesn't reconize that the shuffle is pluged in.
    it has updated a-few times. and when iTunes sees that the shuffle is in the comp it tells me that the songs are on the shuffle.............but when i unplug it and put my headphones in no music comes out of it!
    so what am i to do
    shuffle 512MB Windows XP

    I'm having the same problem! My good-for-nothing brother has formatted iPod shuffle through "My Computer" and now it won't work. Neither iTunes nor iPod software updater recognise the thing. To be honest, neither application even start when the shuffle is plugged in! And now I've just read that apple says you "SHOULD NOT FORMAT" shuffle. What am I to do? Have I lost my iPod for ever?

  • I connected my ipod before installing softwear and now it wont work

    i connected my ipod before installing softwear and now it wont work...like abosolutely nothing...its frozen

    First of all, try resetting the iPod. It may take several attempts and is best done connected power.
    Then download the iPod Updater, install this to your computer, restart the computer, run the Updater, then connect your iPod when prompted (not before), then follow the set up procedure.

  • I downloaded the update and now it wont work.

    I downloaded the update and now it wont work. It just shows me a screen with a lightning chord going to the Itunes icon. Am I supposed to plug it into my mac or something?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
