Iphone fell into water, what should I do?

after a few minutes it says - no connection-

Water damage... Dum Dum Dummmmm!  Hate to say it but since it was on when it went in and out of the water you're phone is probably fried or will be.  Not much you can do.  Once it dries completely you can try and sync it with a computer and backup your data to iTunes, but no promise this will work.
If you have AppleCare+ and you're in the US you can buy a replacement for $49.  If not then you can purchase an out of warranty replacement iPhone 5 from Apple for $229.  A lot of money but its a lot better than paying $799 for a new iPhone 5.
You might want to check with your carrier to see if you have insurance on your phone.

  • Oops! mine fell in water what should i do?

    Can someone help me or intruct me on how to deal with a wet ipod nano?
    Urgent

    The short answer would be: Remove the battery, disconnect it from any other external power sources, blot dry what you can (and what you have access to) and wait several days for it to thoroughly dry before attempting to use it again. Blowing a fan over it might accelerate the evaporation.
    A longer answer might be provided by someone who has more experience in dealing with wet iPods. But the stuff I quoted above is pretty much true for any electronics that get water inside them.

  • How to I fix a phone that fell into water?

    My phone fell into water is there any hope of saving it?? Suggestions are also welcome.

    You can try placing the phone in a ziplock bag filled with rice for two to three days. The rice absorbs the water. But if the water has damaged the iPhone then Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

    Hello jthompsonn25,
    I'm sorry to hear about your iPhone and the issues you are having with Messages on your Mac. If you are trying to send iMessage messages in Messages, your iMessage account should be tied to your Apple ID (same account name and password). If you are having password issues in Messages, you may want to verify that you have the correct password by logging in to your Apple ID directly:
    Apple - My Apple ID
    If you are unable to or are still getting an error message with your password, you may need to reset the password on your Apple ID. If that is the case, you may find the following article helpful:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    Sincerely,
    - Brenden

  • IPod screen is static after it fell into water

    all of my problems started after the ipod touch fell in the water. First it would let me connect to any wifi at all but i got it fixed. now the screen is all gray (turns blue after a while). the ipod works only the screen doesnt. i can unlock the ipod and play music and games(suks with out visuals), but cant see where the **** i am! plz help!

    I guess the first thing you should do if your ipod fell into water is shutting it off. Otherwise water and electricity can damage the electric parts even more. So in your case it could have been a slow process with the result of a damaged screen.
    If the drying does not work anymore, you'll have to get it serviced, see the pricing here: Apple - Support - iPod - Service FAQ

  • Really Getting Back into Photoshop, What Should I Read?

    Hello, all.
    I'm really getting back into Photoshop, what should I read? I just finished the Visual QuickStart Guide, and I have to admit that it has been good for getting me back up to speed quickly, but it's very, very lightweight. I've read Scott Kelby's Photoshop CS2 for Photographers, and although it's good it's too gimmicky for me. I looked at the behemoth Real World for CS2, and that is way more than I need right now.
    Is there anything substantial that would fit between the QuickStart and the Real World?
    I'm a portrait/headshot/editrial photographer. I'm in control of my color and tonality. I don't do collaging or photomerging. I use PS for blemish removal, general localized retouching (clean up stray hairs, cloning out sockets on the wall, things like that...), and some other basic things. I have CS2 at home, where I use PS the most, and CS3 at work.
    Any robust suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks so much,
    Scott

    Thanks!
    I mentioned that the Real World stuff is too intense for my level right now.
    Ben Wilmore...never heard of him. I'll have to do a little snooping...
    Eismann: you guys seem to be on to something. I like her style. I spent a long time in Borders today checking out her stuff. She has a Masking and Compositing book, a Restoration and Retouching book, and a Creative Digital Darkroom book. Not sure which one would be what I need though :(

    my freinds iphone fell in water for 20 seconds wat can be done to save the phone?

    Turn it off and stick it in a cup of rice for 1-2 days, making sure it is completely submerged in the rice. This will draw out the moisture.
    Works like a charm.
