My iphone 4 fell in the toilet 4 days ago and it's been drying in rice since. now when i plug it in, the screen remains black but it will vibrate. is this a good sign or is all hope lost for getting it to work again?

My iphone 4 fell in the toilet 4 days ago and has been drying in rice ever since. I tried plugging it in today and the screen remained black but it did vibrate when i switched it to vibrate. Is that a good sign? Or should I just give up hope already?

well good sign or good sign maybe a strong word
it mean that not all of the device have been damaged by the fluid
but it does not really mean that the screen will ever work again
when drying in rice make sure you don't
1 conceal it so the vapor can't escape or it will not dry enough
2 make sure to leave in on a heating source like a heated floor or radiator to speed up the proccess of the vaporising

I previously uploaded images onto my desktop to work on in Lightroom 5.2. I worked on a few of the images days ago and just now getting back to them. My problem is I can only access the images I previously worked on and all the rest it says images not available but all the images are still right on my desktop.

... and all the rest it says images not available
Normally this happens because you moved, renamed or deleted these photos (or the folders that contain them) outside of Lightroom. This is how to fix the problem: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

I downloaded and installed Illustrator CS6 in Feb, 2014. Now, when I try to open the program it is asking me to sign in for a trial use. What happened to my software and how can I reinstall it?

My external hard drive is no longer connecting. I was getting a message every time I plugged it in that it needed to be reformatted so I tried to do so and now when I plug it in the computer does not recognize it. It only shows up in utilities...

Hey guys, I need some serious help. I have an external hard drive, iomega which apears to no longer work; I am sure it is something I have done and I cant figure out what! I am certainly not a computer expert and am in Turkey so I dont have access to a MAC store for assistance or anything like it. Yesterday I plugged my external hard drive into my MacBook and got a message telling me to refotmat. I looked up how to do so and through disk utilities thought I did it right. Now when I plug in the hard drive my laptop does not pick it up; the only place it shows up is in utilities, the same place I tried to repair and reformat. When I am utilities it looks like I have 2 hard drives, one under the other. One tells me the description of the hard drive, the other doesnt really tell me anything. So I erased both of them and I think that is where my problem is. Any help on how I could fix this? I tried to "mount" the one that is not "mounted but it didnt work....I dont even know what that means!!! Help!

When you erased the disk did you select Mac OS Extended Journaled as the format option?

This is a stupid question, I got this iPhone brand new a few days ago and my cat just chewed my earbud wires and it doesn't work anymore. Can Apple replace them for me?

My earbuds got chewed up by my cat and they are brand new just got the phone 4 days ago

If you charge your cat rent to live with you (assuming your cat has a job), then you can add the cost of replacement to the rent or take it out of the security deposit. With your new funds, you can go to Apple and buy a new pair of headphones. Hope this helps.

I just got my first macbook pro few days ago and its already been crashing on me! i keep getting the rainbow cursor evrytime i open new applications

A little black box has popped up on my computer. it tells me everything that i am doing, like a tutor. it will not going away and is messing my computer up. my 20 month old daughter was playing on it 2 days ago and it's been like this ever since. Help!

if i enter safari, it will not let me scroll down and look at anything. it immediately will jump back up to the top! help!!!

It sounds like she may have enabled VoiceOver on the machine. Go to System Preferences, then click on Universal Access. Check to see if VoiceOver is turned on, and if so turn it off and see if that resolves the issue.

I got a new computer and now all my music is gone. how do i transfer my music from my iPod touch to my new computer. right now when i plug it in, it says if i sync, i will lose everything on my itouch... PLEASE help!

So I had an ipod touch, got a lot of my music from my old CD's that i later threw away, then got a new computer and lost all my music on my itunes, but still have it all on my itouch. I just simply want to get my music from my itouch to my computer. I now have a iphone and it would be nice to put some of that music on my phone as well.
Hope someone can help me!!!
thanks,
Sophia

While that may work9I do not think it will) with iTunes purchased music it will not work for other music.
- Transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.

Downloaded 5.01 and latest itunes. Had errors on iphone needed to restore now when i plug into itunes it freezes I need to use task master to close.if i plug my wifes phone in no problems with itunes took it to apple store tech no help.

Have iphone 3g with 5.0 I downloaded 5.01 for phone and itunes latest download. Had errors on download and needed to restore. Everything came back except apps.
Pluged into itunes and it gave me the restore screen. restored again. Now when i plug into itunes it shows my phone but freezes up. I need to use task master to close itunes. Went to apple store tech. No help said to use Icloud but no WiFi is available. My wife's phone works fine with itunes.

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
If you have gone through ALL the above steps and are still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

HT4528 I recently got the iPhone 5s and I transferred all of my music, pictures, etc. over from my iPhone 5. My music was playing fine the day I got it (2 days ago) and now my music skips, stops in the middle of the songs, or just stops playing and exits.

What can I do?

Not sure if this will help but a reset is the first thing to try. To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
