Water has been spilt on my 13 inch macbook air (which is only 27 days old!). What to do? How much will genius bar charge to repair it?

HI all
My Macbook air (13 inch) is less than a month old. Due to an accident where around 1/4 bottle water leaked into my bag on my way home and now my macbook air is now damaged. I immediatly tried swicthing it on (keyboard lights lit up but that was it) however realised after I should not have done that. It is currently at home, turned upside down on a towel. I know I will have to pay to repair it but realistically how much am I looking at (uk cost? the only info I can find through many searches relates to US costs. I am really not tech savvy at all so any home repairs are out of the question. My only option is to pay apple or buy new (whoch considering how much I spent a month ago I really cant justify. I am absolutly gutted as I saved for months for this and had to use birthday money too I cant even get a genius bat appointment to next week now so I am really stressing about this!
advice please? I am desperate and gutted!
Thanks

They usually have a "flat rate" repair fee for portables. It is something like $350.00 when I had my Macbook Pro (2008) repaired. It could be more, or less for your device. They will send it out for repair, so be expecting to leave the device with them.

Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices has been disabled- in to 2days bought Macbook Air

It has beeing used only an i phone 3GS for sync !!!

My wife's Mac pro is doing the same thing when she hooks up our canon camera. She has downloaded 1000's of pictures without problems before and now that message pops up . Also the SD card reader isn't working. When the card is plugged in nothing happens and we can't find the card in iphoto. So now she has no way to get the pictures on iphoto. It's not the cord or the card because I can download them without any problem on my windows computer. I also have seen a bunch of other post about this problem. Any help would be great. Thanks.

My screen change from white to off-white, before that it was looking like water has been poured inside then it started fading away to off-white [creamish]

Try here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
If you can't turn it off then let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
If still problem time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It appears you have a hardware problem.

Since I updated to iCloud, Mail on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 has been unable to connect to MobileMe more than once or twice per day. Mail on my iPhone 4 has no problems. What's wrong?

Since I updated to iCloud, (which may or may not be related) Mail on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 has been unable to connect to MobileMe more than once or twice per day. Mail on my iPhone 4 and my old iMac has no problems. When there is no service a yellow warning triangle appears adjacent to the Inbox and Connection Doctor reports,"Trying to log into this MobileMe IMAP account failed. Verify that username and password are correct." Since it does fetch Mail from time to time they cannot be wrong.... can they? Should I update to 10.7 and if so what does that entail?

You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

I am trying to backup my iPhone but the email used for my Apple ID has been deactivated so I can no longer log into my account or back up my iPhone. How do I back it up otherwise? Or how do I change my email?

My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

One of the memory cards was indeed faulty, and the other completely fine
Thanks very much for all your help!
Although there is one little thing that I've noticed. The iMac works properly, but I tried to software update to see if that may help my Minecraft sound issue (as I still don't think only having 2GB instead of 4GB would cause such a problem) but the software update application won't work. Running the "Software Update" from the apple menu on the toolbar gains no response, nothing happens. If I run the software update from system preferences, the application icon appears for a second, then disappears (as in the blank app. icon, the blank canvas with the pencil, pen and ruler in the bottom right corner). It does this every time I try to run it. It did work when the computer was crashing, but this started when on one of the occasions I ran the app. while it was crashing. Since this occured during the crashes, and still occurs now, I'm wondering did something simlar happen minecraft, as it's sound disappeared during the crashes and is still gone now.
However, the computer is now working again without crashes, which is the main thing, thanks for helping me fix the issue
Edit: I would mark the topic as solved, but I'm unsure if this would lock the topic or something simlar, so I'd rather leave it open for any ideas regarding the software update and Minecraft issues I'm having

Crich,
The usual reasons for an Apple ID getting disabled are either unauthorized activity or violations of the Terms & Conditions.
Submit your request to iTunes Customer Service and if appropriate, they will re-enable it.

It's in recovery mode. You need to plug it into your computer running iTunes and restore it.

I received my new Iphone 6 last week, backed my iphone 5 and then restored my new handset. It has been working fine until today when I deletec all my contacts from my old handset. Contacts have gone from my new handset too, how do I get them back?

Contacts have gone from my new handset too, how do I get them back? I don't think the back up was done using icloud as I keep getting the message "not enough memory"

The point is not whether you used iTunes or iCloud to restore your new iPhone. It's whether you have Contacts turned on in Settings > ICloud. If you do on both your old iPhone and new iPhone then those devices are connected through iCloud. Deletions on one device are also made on the other.
You may be able to restore your Contacts be using your old device backup to restore your new iPhone again. Make sure that you turn Off ICloud functionality on your old iPhone before you delete anything else from it.

Don't know how this has happened, would like a refund what is the procedure.
