My ipod fell in the snow

It only got a little wet, and it still plays the music fine, but something shorted out in the area that you plug the adaptor into. So now when I plug in my adaptor, it will give me an error saying that it's not compatible with the ipod, so now I'm not able to charge the battery. When I plug it into the computer, it won't open itunes. It doesn't recognize it anymore. This happened just a few hours ago. Is there anything I can do to fix it? I can't send it in for repair since I definitely can't afford it now or in the long run, and I pretty much depend on my ipod. Please help.

Thanks for the quick responses. To my surprise, (and relief,) my ipod is working fine this morning. It's connecting to the computer and charging normally. I suppose since it had only gotten a little wet, it was only very temporarily out of order. But thanks again for the replies. Now I'll know what to do if my ipod ever gets a complete soaking.

Hi,
First, make sure do not plug your iPod neither with your computer or ac charger.
Leave it at the dry place for at least a week, and bear in mind that do not use hot/warm air blower to shorten the drying period.

dry up the iPod, check:

Then after that is done, try to attempt to turn it on. DO NOT CHARGE OR PLUG IT INTO ANYTHING UNTIL ITS COMPLETELY DRY.

The screen is not broken outside... i cant do nothing(cant even turn if off)..can i fix this? if yes how much will it cost ??(p.s im in italy)

Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPod serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty will be void.
Regards.

my ipod fell in the toilet. It is coming on but not doing much. is there a way to fix it? I placed it in rice and that helped.

Did you dry it is rice for a week and change the rice daily?

My ipod fell in the bath tub i shook the water out and put it in rice a few days and it will only works when on the charger and when i take it off the screeen goes black

my ipod touch fell into the bath tub a few days ago, i shook out the water and put it in rice, but the screen on it is really very cracked and im afraid it might have really ruined it, it turns on but only when on the dock and as soon as i take it off the dock it turn off the whole screen goes black

Dry it in rice longer. Then try restoring to factory settings/new iPod. If still problem
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for a 64 GB 4G iPod and $99 for the other 4G iPods. They do not fix yours.

I dropped my iPod 5 in the snow

Today, I dropped my iPod in the snow and now it's stuck in headphone mode. I can't hear anything unless my headphones are plugged in, did I ruin it?

Maybe, maybe not. Treat as if it has water damage. Turn it off do not charge or use. Place it in a sealed bag of uncooked rice for 7 to 10 days. Change the rice daily. After drying, try turning your iPod on, you may need to charge it for an hour first. If it turns on check that all is working. If the sound still only works with the headphones, try quickly plugging and unplugging the headphone jack about 12 times. There is a tiny switch in the headphone port, with any luck it's stuck open, this should unstick it. If it is moisture, the rice will dry out the inside and with luck solve your problem. If nothing works after drying, try resetting, or restore from back up or restore to new. If none of the above work contact Apple Genius Bar to schedule an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Hope this helps, Good luck.

IPod fell on the floor and now it's beserk.. :(

Hey all,
I have an iPod Video 60gb.. 3 days ago it fell on the floor and just went crazy from there on..
For instance, I can listen to the songs that are on it, but when I connect it to the computer and I try to access it, it'll ask me if I want to format it or not, so, now, I can't even make backups of my songs, what can I do?
Really appreciate the help.

it'll ask me if I want to format it or not, so, now, I can't even make backups of my songs, what can I do?
The songs should be in iTunes or you should have a backup of them.
You can try a 3rd part app and see if it will get the songs off the iPod.

My iPod fell down the toilet....

...erm, ya. I was trying to throw something away and the iPod slipped out of my hand and fell into the toilet. I got it out in about 1 second and it was on and playing still. I dried it off as fast as possible and tried to turn it off, but the lock was on and wouldn't turn off. I tried plugging it in (Oops.) and this message came on the iPod's screen, but I couldn't read it because it was too dark. so i left it alone and it is standing upright right now and it has been for about a day and i has not been touched since. What elese should I do and how long should i keep it like it is right now? I there any hope for my iPod??? Thanx bunches!!!

OK, I left it alone for a week then tried to turn it
on. it didnt work. so i left it alone for about
another day. and then i tried to turn it on. didnt
work. so i tried to plug it in. no luck. my ipod is
dead. end of story. just a piece of advise for
everyone- NEVER take you iPod near a bathroom, sink
or anything having to do with water, i'll waste all
your money that you paid for it (in my case
$300)!!!!!!
I think i know the cause(s) of death to your iPod
A) It not being turned off right after retrieving it (Caused by the hold swich)
B) Plugging it in after words (the main problem)
When you plugged it in was probably the end of story due to the large amount of power entering the iPod although it seems you are a bit luckier than other i know who have done the same thing and after doing so not only didn't have an iPod but also didn't have a computer (Fried the main board)
Sorry to hear you lost your iPod, although there is a good reason to step up to an new 80GB!

My dad's ipod fell into the sink, can it still work, help!!

i was using it yesterday and the sink was pretty full. the ipod (nano 4th gen.) fell in by accident and i didn't use it for most of the day. i tried playing it, it played for a while and then it said 'low battery.'
so now, i tried it again and apparently it only works when it's plugged in the computer somewhat. but when i take it out, the screen is black
what can i do? i dont want him to find out that it fell in water :/ if i have to get it replaced, how much will it cost cause i heard they don't cover liquid damage & we bought this ipod like 2 years ago so we're not on warranty
