Is there any way to repair water damage?

Just days before she was going to buy the warranty my girlfriend's ipad was damaged by water and the volume doesnt work without the headphones.  Can it be fixed or is it a lost cause?

  • I have a iPhone 3GS and the power connection prongs are damaged and it won't charge or sync.  Is there any way to repair?

    I have a iPhone 3GS and the power connection prongs are damaged and it won't charge or sync.  Is there any way to repair?  Or, at least is there a way to charge so I can write down phone numbers and othe rinformation.  My power charge is totally out right now.

    If it will not turn on - you have zero chance of getting anything off the phone.

  • Is there any way to repair the ouput on an Airport Express?

    My ancient Airport Express is only putting out one channel with a whole bunch of static. Is there any way to pop in a new output where the mini-jack plugs in? (I've tried a bunch of different minijack adapters, btw. It's definitely the output that's borked.)

    Easiest thing to do is probably buy a digital-to-analog audio converter (see example below), and just use the optical output of the AirPort Express, which is probably still fully functional (test by plugging in a TOSlink cable and sending music to the AEx...if the other end of the fiber optic cable glows red, it's working). You can velcro or glue it to the side of the AirPort Express if you need to.

  • Is there any hope for a water damaged ipad mini?

    I accidentally spilled some water over my ipad mini. I think the water got into the ipad thru the earphone jack. If spent about two weeks trying to dry it out.
    The excess  moisture that was inside the screen has disappeared (after head and rice and all that sort of thing) but it will not switch on.
    If I connect to the power, I can hear the audible beep that happens when you plug it in. If I leave it for a while, I can randomly hear Siri saying something like 'Siri cannot operate'(not too sure - I've always been too far away) and 'please connect to Internet'
    This makes me feel there is something there but, I still can not turn it on.
    Any help? Any hope?
    Noreen

    there may not be unfortunately.
    The water itself doesn't damage the device, but the short circuits the water causes does the damage. Anecdotally, people have reported success drying their device out, but usually the key is to rice it and leave it until it's totally dry. And avoid any power that may cause those short circuits. Since you've turned it on and such what damage there was to do is probably already done.
    Just guessing, from what you;'re saying, the wifi part and the backlight/screen light seems to be damaged even though part of the operating system works (since siri can tell you she needs the internet)
    You may be to the point of hoping Apple can grant you an out of warranty replacement (they don't have to when it's user damage) or looking for a new device.

  • Is there any way to repair (re-install) the internal flash player for IE10?

    Hi eveyone,
    In short;
    been running Win 8 Pro 64-bit for a couple of days now. Decided it was time to try out some software so installed  a trial of Fix It Utilities Professional (bad decision).
    Installed it, played around for a bit and after a while I came up with the brilliant idea of running a registry clean/fix (insert facepalm) and some overall clean-up, just curious
    to seel the results.
    Being stupid and feeling lazy, cleaned everything and didn't create a backup. Everything seemed fine afterwards. Only the internal flash player for IE 10 dissapeared
    from the Add-ons list, hence the plugin itself stopped working.I've tried everything I think I've tried all the help options I could find on the Adobe site, but nothing seems to work (un-install tool,
    delete files and folders, IE's security settings back to default, checked ActiveX status and permissons, reset all data and settings for IE10 etc) Something must have been modified in the registry
    but I'm just unable to locate the problem. I also installed the latest beta for Chrome and that's working like a charm, no problems at all and the performance is great.
    So this is the error I receive:
    I'm kinda stuck now; the installer won't let me installl it because IE has a built in plugin, but it's not working in IE. It's not even visible in the add-on menu.
    I know it was a pretty stupid thing to do, but I still hope someone here knows what to do. I;m kinda running out of ideas/options (not going to edit the registry myself, because you can
    bet your money this will only have a negative outcome
    thanks in advance!

    the last thing I can think of is that OpenOffice and Windows Live Messenger also use flash, if i'm correct. E.g. in the OpenOffice folder there is a flash.dll file. Could these files be of real
    influence?
    ill copy all the current flash files and keys/values, seems the only way to clear thing ups a bit

    No, you can ask questions, but you'll have to wait until someone shows up who knows the answer.
    I do not have Windows 8 / IE10, so I don't know anything about it.
    You may have to wait until US daytime; maybe someone from the Adobe staff knows the answer.  But you may be better off asking in a IE10 forum.
    Meanwhile check if you can find any relevant information in http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/flashplayer/pdfs/flas h_player_windows8_admin_guide.pdf

  • Is there any way to recover a damaged psd file?

    I'm sure the answer is no but I thought it was worth asking. I have Photoshop Elements 6.0. I was working on an image with 3 layers and I'd been saving very regularly, then my computer crashed. It didn't crash while I was saving but it must have still been saving when it happened because my file got damaged. Now when I open it, it comes up with a message saying 'This document contains Adobe Photoshop data which appears to be damaged. Continue and ignore the Photoshop data?' when I click ok it then says 'The embedded ICC profile cannot be used because the ICC profile descrition is invalid. Ignoring the profile'. When the image opens its completely flat and black. I've tries a few recovery programmes but that didn't seem to work. I found a temp file but I don't think it'ss a real temp file because it doesn't have an extension. Can anyone help?

    One thing you can try is going to the folder where you had the photo in and right click on the folder and click on Properties.
    Then in the Properties dialog click on Previous Versions.
    Now choose one of the dates and/or times before your computer crashed and click on Copy and in the Copy dialog the appears choose another location on your computer like your desktop to
    copy the folder to. (don't use the Restore button or that could possibly mess up the other things in that folder)
    The above will only work if you have system restore on or do backups of your drive.

  • When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Is there any way to correct this problem?

    When I attempt to open a PDF file I saved from a website using Safari, I get the message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." When I save the same PDF file using FireFox it opens up immediately. Is there any way to correct this problem with Safari?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos and videos from my water damaged iPhone 6?

    My iPhone 6 appears to be water damaged and won't turn on. At this point, I'm ready to give up on the phone but I'd like to retrieve data from the phone if possible - especially photos and videos. Is there any way to do this? I have seen suggestions to take it to the Apple Store, but with the nearest one just over an hour away, I would be very disappointed to drive all that way just to be told there's nothing they can do.

    Thanks, John. I should have specified - no  iCloud back up. I would have maxed it out with the first backup, so I didn't do it. I back up to my computer, but hadn't done that in about a month. Big lesson learned here. I have a new phone and am setting up iCloud!! I'm trying to allow all my family's devices to back up to the same iCloud - that's the new challenge

  • Is there any way to save an iphone with water damage?

    Is there any way to save an iphone 5 with water damage? I know older phones you could some times use rice to dry it out.

    1, Place in ziplock bag with dry raw white rice for a week.
    2, When that doesn't work take to Apple and purchase out of warranty replacement.
    3, If you have already turned on the power the damage is done so just proceed to step 2.

  • I sent in my iPod nano to the replacement program about two weeks back. However, I checked the status of the repair and it still says it has not been received yet. Is there any way to follow up on where the nano could be? I sent it via FedEx.

    I sent in my iPod nano to the replacement program about two weeks back. However, I checked the status of the repair and it still says it has not been received yet. However, my boyfriend sent in his the same time I did and his repair status says repair being diagnosed. I still have the "receipt" of the package when they first sent it to me. I sent it via FedEx. Is there any way to follow up on where the nano could be or maybe find out if I can still get a replacement even though my nano might be lost in transit?

    I sent it via FedEx. 
    Call FedEx.  They will be able to track their own packages.  They will let you know if your iPod Nano was delivered and to who!

    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.

  • I dropped my iPhone 4 in water and now it won't turn on at all, will i lose all of my data, for example my photos and messages etc? and is there any way you can back the phone up without having it switched on?

    If you had previously been backing up to iCloud (or a computer with iTunes), you would possibly have a backup.  That said, if you can't turn the phone on, you cannot create a backup of the device now.  Sorry.
