My little sister brought my ipod into the shower with her but it still works but it's weird, HELP!
My little sister who happens to be 10 years old brought my ipod with her into the shower. When she finished she handed it back but it was wet. I quickly shooed her away not wanting to deal with her and when I turned it the lock screen had some parts faded and other even more faded but some still it's usually brightness. I sorta freaked out as I saw my home screen which had the volume sign if you will up but I hadn't touched the button i then quickly dried it. When I tried to see if I could lower the volume it took a while for it to actually work and it didn't disappear for a while. I tried to calm down and turn it again later but then it was still the same only the volume sign wasn't there. I repeated the process and sometimes the volume sign was there and sometimes it wasn't. I haven't told my parents yet or my older brother who had bought the ipod for me since he thought I would be responsible with it. If anyone knows how to fix it, PLEASE HELP!
The worst thing you can do is turn the I pod on after it has been soaked in water. There is a remedy which has a decent track record of recovering iPods that have been doused in water. Believe it or not, the best thing you can do is to put the
IPod into a bed of rice and leave it there for 4 or 5 days, the longer, the better. Make sure it is in the off mode. Of course, there is no guarantee this will work, but it's about the only thing you can do. With a little luck, it will come back to life.

Hello GJS6,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your daughter's iPod touch to the computer. I recommend the following article:

I can't read acsm files on my e-reader after transferring them from the pc with ADE. it seems to work, but then when I try to open the files on the e-reader it says "open failure". what's wrong?
The acsm file is not the book, it is a ticket to get the book. I sometimes get library books online, here is what I do.
1. Start ADE on the computer
2. Go to library website and find the book I want to download.
3. Click on the download link
4. In windows 7 a box opens asking whether I want to open( or run) or save the acsm file
5. Click open/run and ADE downloads the book into the "Library"
6. Transfer the book (epub file) to the reader. -
I have an 8GB iPhone 3GS on AT&T, and I wanted to purchase a 16GB version on eBay. Will I be able to just pop the SIM card out of the current iPhone 3GS into the new iPhone 3GS and have it work properly?
Yes, you will be able to use it provided that the 16GB version of 3GS is either factory unlocked or locked to AT&T network (in case of a carrier locked phone).

I want to take my iPod into the shower
Is there an underwater case for the iPod? One made for scuba diving would be fine. It should have a hook at the top so it will hang on the shower head and have speakers so you can hear it without using headphones.
If not, maybe I can just put it all in a big freezer bag and hang that in the shower.i thought this before
And i checked some related accessories:
Hope these can help:

ashThere is no way out of the problem unless you have previously synced it with a computer. If you Restore the phone on the last computer it synced to it will remove the passcode and restore the contents, but if you don't have access to that computer there is no way to recover the contents of the phone.

I accidentally dropped my Ipod into the lake, at the beach yesterday, but i caught it early and it wasn't too soaked... i wiped it off for the most part, and most of the buttons and the screen worked fine! i was shocked, and there were a few glitches with the camera and the slide button on the lock screen, but otherwise it was greatly intact! so i gave it a rest, put it in my purse, and picked it up fifteen minutes later, and it was working 100% normally again! when i got home a few hours later, i put it in rice for a few hours, taking it out every once and a while to check my notifications... it still seemed to be working perfectly, so i just set it down out of the rice, assuming the moisture was gone. this morning, again, everything was working normally, no glitches, UNTIL, i opened my instagram app, and the screen froze, and it seemed like it had two separate screens, and i held the Sleep button down until the screen went black... then i tried turning it back on, etc. and it still didn't work, and so i plugged it into the computer, holding down the sleep and home buttons, and itunes identified it as in recovery mode, and started updating. i tried again to press the sleep and home butttons, maybe pressing only the home button, because I heard the Siri noise, as well as the charging sound, but the screen was still black.... i checked my iTunes, and lo and behold, it had identified my iPod, and synced it to the computer, as if it were normally functioning. However, the screen is still not working, and Siri is not working either. The sounds may be the only thing that's functioning. Should i send it in?
