Water Damaged Ipod

Well, ive carelessly placed my ipod in my pocket getting it soaked and washed in the washing machine. I let the ipod dry for 8 hours in direct sunlight and right now its not too bad. It can use apps normally but speaker no longer works and there are these strange dark water spots under the screen.
Does anybody know a solution to get rid of these spots and get my speaker functioning again?

No one here can make any guarantees. All you can do is hope that further drying will solve these problems. If not, you'll have to live with the iPod as is or pay to have it repaired/replaced, by Apple or a third-party repair shop.
Regards.

My daughter dropped her ipod touch 4g into water. We bought a new one 3 days ago which she has dropped. The screen has smashed! Can we use the good screen from the water damaged ipod to replace the broken one

Can anyone help please? My daughter dropped her ipon touch 4g into water which resulted in it being ruined. We bought her a new one three days ago and she has just dropped it and cracked the screen!!!
Cany anybody tell me, are we able to use the perfect screen from the water damaged ipod to replace the broken one on the new ipod or, would the water damage have ruined the screen too?
Thanks in advance

Your very best option would be to take it to an apple store and exchange it for an alike model which can be a refurbished, or new unit. The repair/exchange price is about 99USD. http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&viewlocale=en_US&geo=United_St ates&product=ipod&select=REPAIR_PRICING

Where do I go to get a water damaged ipod fixed

A couple weeks ago my 30g ipod video fell in the washing machine. I tried turning on the ipod on and plugging it up befor i realized it would burn out the circuits. weeks later the ipod still doesnt turn on. where do i go to get it fixed. what is the cost. i've heard of ipodresq.com but i'm not sure if they fix water damage. PLEASE HELP

iPodResQ have a pretty good reputation in the Mac world. I think they do an overnight evaluation of the iPod and email you a price for fixing the iPod before you decide whether it's worth it.
Worth a go.

Water damaged iPod touch success story... kinda.

So my 32 GB iPod touch 4G got wet recently. It powered off during the incident and 3 hours later, I rushed home to submerge it in an air-tight bag of rice. All of this was on a Saturday.
3 days later, Tuesday, I opened up the bag and plugged it in, and it started charging fine. Once it charged long enough to go to the lock screen, the front facing camera started fogging up, and it was a pain getting it to slide across to unlock the thing. After many failed attempts, I finally got it, and noticed the backlight was going crazy. It was flickering from low to high brighness like a strobe light, so I cut it off and placed it back in the bag for another day then opened it up Wednesday with the same results.
I eventually left it in the bag for a full 2 weeks then opened it up, and it worked like new. No problems.
Over the next couple days I noticed the battery wasn't holding up, but later saw that I'd charge it fully, then after not using it for 30 minutes or so, it would shut off completely and the only way to bring it back was to plug it to a computer. It would show the "dead battery" screen for a few minutes, then going to the lock screen it'd have a full battery.
Now when I plug it in all I see is the "dead battery" screen then the apple logo back and forth. The lock screen never comes up.
I found sites where I can replace the battery myself but I'm not sure if it's the battery anymore. And if it were a problem with anything else would sending it in to Apple solve it. I've heard all they do is replace the battery and back cover.
Thanks for your replies in advance.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:

The can tell by liquid indicators that the iPod was wetted. It appears that the water damaged some parts and it may be more that the battery.

Water Damaged Ipod and Dead Computer - Can I get my playslists back?

My Ipod was recently water damaged and I have not been able to switch it on since then, I tried the rice method with no success. I even opened it as I was past my warrantee to see if I could let it dry but nothing. I was planning on buying a new Ipod this month but in the meantime the motherboard of my computer died and I was told I'd be better off buying a new laptop.
The computer repair shop said they would be able to back up the contents of my computer but were unsure whether my playlists would still be there. Is there anyway I can get my playlists, music and most importantly song ratings off my backed up music on my external hard drive?
Please tell me there is a solution, I have spent years classifying over 60g of music
I'm not sure I can handle losing my laptop, my Ipod and my song ratings in less than a month....
Thanks!!!!

Tell the people who are backing up your computer to copy your entire iTunes Folder (NOT iTunes Music folder) to a different drive then copy that file to the new computer after installing iTunes.

Water damaged Ipod touch?

Hello, my ipod touch had been water damaged.
It was turned on when it came in contact with water. It was still turned on, however, it was locked and the slider won't slide. I tried turning it off. That doesn't work either. I looked online for help, and I read an article about putting it in an uncooked rice for a few days. I did this, and it is not turn on anyone. What should I do now? I've read on this site that the apple warranty doesn't cover it.

If your iPod Touch came in contact with water while it was ON and the damage that was done initially while it was ON cannot be reversed. The submersion in rice works when one needs to completely dry out the wet undamaged components internally as the rice will absorb the moisture out of the iPod Touch.
I would recommend [*_RESETTING your iPod Touch*|http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/ipodtouch/#section2] while connected to a wall outlet and after it has been connected to a wall outlet for at least 20 minutes. If RESET does not get a response out of your iPod Touch then I am afraid your device has been water damaged and needs repair. You are right, Apple will not honor the warranty in this case.

Where can I fix water damaged iPod Touch?

My iPod got water damaged and now the front camera won't work. Since apple won't fix it for free, how much would it cost to get it fixed?

Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.

Water damaged ipod - replacement?

Hi there,
My other half's ipod has water damage as we have been told from the apple store. They also said a while back that we could take it into the store, hand it in and pay £70 for a brand new replacement - does anyone know if this is still the case?
Many thanks

Water damaged ipod touch 4th gen.

my ipod is water damaged does anyone know where to get it fixed or how much it will cost?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is no iPod Touch 6th Generation. 4th Generation is the newest iPod Touch. However if you have the Advanced Black Tie Protection (which includes Accidental Handling) Best Buy can send it out for rapid exchange. If you just have the standard Black Tie protection accidental damage (water) would not be covered and you would be subject to the above repair prices to get it repaired by Apple.
If you dont have the receipt or Black Tie number that is not a issue. Go to any best Buy and they can pull up the service plan.

Water damage iPod Nano 7th Generation?

My iPod Nano 7th Generation was in very good condition and it just went through the washer 3 nights ago and I plugged it into the charger and it would turn on but the touch screen wouldn't open the music or anything and the screen looked like there was water in it and it went very slow. How can I fix it or something? I cant buy a new one because it would be too high price and I can't get one either because Im 1 year away from being able to have a job. So how can I fix this or something?

Well if it's just the screen i'd try eBay, but it sounds like it has internal damage because you mentioned it is slow. You either would have to replace everything inside, or buy a new or refurbished one.

Any hope for water damaged iPod?

The iPod received a sprinkle of water and worked fine for several hours after. Then I could no longer turn it on....I am assuming it is the water. Any other explanation possible?

Place the iPod is a sealed container with a desiccant like uncooked rice for a week. Periodically change the rice.
If it does not work
Unless you purchased the optional AppleCare+ extended warranty
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.
