What must be done with the phone after it gets wet from falling into water?
What steps, if any, must be taken with an iPhone 5 which fell innto the water and was in the water for a period of time before it was retrieved. The phone is now dry, but it has not been turned on or attempted to be turned on.
Excellent that you left it off! Put it in a container of dry rice or with silica gel (available in craft shops) for several days. Even if it appears dry, you want to make completely sure. Once it's as dry as it's going to get, plug it in and charge it up. Hope for the best!
Best of luck.

I need to cancel my storage plan and I don't have the physical phone or anything associated with the phone anymore to get serial # from, so how do I contact apple?
Contact the Apple online store at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE in the U.S. and Canada.)
If you ever synced your phone with iTunes, you can find your serial number by doing the following:
Launch iTunes on your computer.
Hold down your Control key, then on the menu bar in iTunes click iTunes>About iTunes (Mac) or Help>About iTunes (PC).
Any previously synced devices will scroll in a pop-up window; press the space bar to stop scrolling so you can write down the serial number. -
What can be done with the fingerprint reader?
I am trying to figure out simply what I can do with the fingerprint reader on the T400. I understand how to use it to log into the computer. My main question is whether or not I can use the fingerprint reader in the following contexts, and if so how.
1a) To log into internet password protected websites. When I use IE, the password manager pops up and prompts me to save a password. If I save it, I can return to that website and it automatically will enter the login information and password for me. I want to know whether you can have password manager (or another program) prompt the user for the fingerprint and then submit the login information. That way the information is protected each time I log in, but I do not need to enter log in information each time, only a fingerprint.
1b) If this is possible in IE8, I would like to know if it is possible in Firefox 3, in which password manager does not pop up.
2) Can it be used to log into MS Outlook.
3) Can it be used to lock documents in MS Word.
I much appreciate any information letting me know if these can be done, and if so, how to do them. Thank you very much for your help!

Message Edited by lenova on 09-07-2008 09:13 PMAfter playing with it for a while I figured out at least questions 1a) and 1b). For anyone else who has the same questions:
1a) Have your browser save the password using Lenovo's Password Manager. Then open password manager and open that item. Click the advanced tab and change the security level to custom. Click "Customize Security Policy" and select "Protect with a Fingerprint."
1b) Lenovo has a patch to synch Password Manager with firefox 3. It can be found here and is much easier than the manual fixes found on this forum.

I am still looking for help with 3) and 4), particurally 3). Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you very much!! -
Greetings!
I'm a noob and not so much of a techie, henceforth I would greatly appreciate your input.
Referring to the above matter, it was stated on my Xperia Ion that I would need to update Whatsapp to the latest version from Google PlayStore in order to use it. Fair enough, I got onto PlayStore and found it. There was no "update" button anywhere, there were only "uninstall" and "open".
Now obviously when i select "open" this will open the app, which will bring me back to where it says that I'll need an updated version.
The other option I can choose from is "uninstall", which I pressed, and then the "install" option came soon after. Installed it and ran it without problems whatsoever.
However, I'm wondering, upon the installation of Whatsapp from PlayStore, it was mentioned that the app is free for this year, and that I'll need to pay for it upon the expiry of free period in the event I intend to continue using it, which shall be next year.
Now my question (finally):- With regards to the initial outdated version of Whatsapp that came with the phone (which I have deleted), will I need to pay for the app upon the completed usage of a year too, similar to the newer one I've downloaded from PlayStore?
Please advise. Cheers!it's the same thing, not all phones have the preloaded app, this varies by region and/or carrier
is Sony spying on users in this forum?

What can be done with the excessive ink usage on the HP6700 printer?
I just replaced all the cartridges in a HP6700 printer so I could print a black only page (that issue has it's own thread of disappointed customers). Now after very little use, perhaps 20-30 pages at most and again mostly just black type, the message that cyan ink is low comes up. Yes, I set it to print black only and grayscale most every page but I think that is false. I use the Draft setting on most things in another hopless effort to save ink. I think I did better from the starter pack that came with the printer which also ran out about the same time but I did at least print have the pages with color then. Does anyone know of a way to get this thing to stop using up ink so fast other than leaving in unplugged in the corner or placing it in the garbage can.??
Hi oceanbob,
I appreciate your frustration, I really do. However, this particular printer uses some color inks even when printing in black only. The reason for this is for servicing tasks and to make sure your printhead does not dry out and cause problems in the future. If you did run out of color and kept printing black only, you will cause problems with the printhead.
For more information here is your User Guide to your printer, see page 74.
To get a better understand of the ink usage, take a look here: Ink Usage in Inkjet Printers
Thank you for your time!

What can be done with the PCI express expansion slot
Hello Mac world. This is Cee again with another wild question about the Macbook pro. I recently purchased a 17in Macbook pro with the discrete 1gb AMD radeon graphics card and I have a question. Is it possible to enhance this discrete graphics card using the express expansion port? I ask because I’m an intense console gammer and I would like to take this experience on the go with my Macbook pro. I know this Macbook can handle games such as Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 if set to low settings, but is there a way to expand the graphics card using the express expansion port? I know there are other laptops designed specifically for the purpose of intense gaming, but I just wanted to try it out on the Macbook pro.
Thanks for any help.CEE6 wrote:

Nope, sorry.

The MBP has powerful graphics, but for a limited time as games get more powerful
For computer gaiming you need a Windows 7 tower where the video card upgrade options are massive.
laptops of all kinds can't do this, neither can most Mac's, the Mac Pro has little or no graphic card upgrade options.

While charging my IPHONE 4S with the USB adapter supplied along with iphone the power line gets blown up every time and I am left only with the option to recharge through the USB port of my laptom.Any remedy?
Have you tried other outlets? That may be an electrical problem in your house, worse case scenario. Try other USB wall adapters.

What do you do with the download after downloaded? Sorta.
Once an app/zip file/font etc. had been downloaded....I'm supposed to drag and drop to folder. Let's use applications as an example. I download Firefox. Drag/drp to app folder. Install etc.
Now, FF icon is on desktop under macHD icon. If/When FF disappears from dock, I select this icon (the one under macHD), then a little 3x5 window pops up-the same one that I used to drag the original FF to the app folder. Should that still be there? Do I delete it? And why do I have to have all these icons on my desktop? I want something like the PC start menu.
Thanks"Extract" means to transfer the application out of the archive or disc image. Zip or SIT archives, for example, must have their contents extracted by an unarchiver such as Stuffit Expander or The Unarchiver - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
With a disc image the actual file is contained on the disc image. When you double-click the .dmg file the disc is mounted on the Desktop. The file is stored on the mounted disc.
I don't know what most users use as a base, frankly. I've found both Windows and Mac OS as well as the several others I've used to be relatively easy to learn by just working with them and forgetting about what the other one did or how. But if you feel the need you can look at:

I was gifted an I phone 5s in Saudi Arabia. Took it to the Verizon store. The sales rep told me I could not use it. Any suggestions?
If it's a legitimately unlocked iPhone, you can use it on AT&T or T-Mobile if you like. You can not bring your own iPhone to any CDMA carrier (Verizon, Sprint, etc).
If it was originally sold in the Middle East, Facetime is permanently disabled. -
HT201441 i cant get in touch with the previous owner to get the device removed from their account
How can i resolve this issue since i cant get in contact with the account holder?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone. -

I've got a Treo 755p...and I'm happy with it, except email has never worked right. When I connect to my gmail account to "get" messages, all it downloads are 350 messages from the year 2008. I've got to keep downloading, and deleteing 350 messages at a time which are two years old. What can I do with the phone or at gmail to "get" the more recent mail. It seems there must be a way to eliminate these old messages and concentrate on newer messages.
Thanks for the help, I appreciate it and do enjoy the phone. I've got a wireless keyboard coming and that seems like an awesome accessory. Thanks again!!
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)I feel your pain. I awoke this morning to check my text messages on my iPhone (I'm away working in Norway) only to notice a text my girlfriend sent over the night. The title bar over the message listed her Italian mobile number instead of her name. I thought that odd, only to realize that virtually all of my contacts have disappeared from the iCloud. Even more strange, there appears to be no order, rhyme nor reason, or any form of sense as to what has been deleted. If this (and a few other issues I have with post-Jobs Apple) is indicative of Apple's trajectory, they're not going to be around long. I'm beyond ******-off over this and I'll be thinking very hard about buying Apple products in the future.

There is no Apple in this user to user forum.
Take your phone to the Apple store and have the guys at the Genius bar take a look at it.
also use the search function at the top right of the forum, "battery" look for the thread with the green checkmark.
