best way to dry iPhone6 thrown in water

This afternoon, my iPhone6 took a very quick plunge in the toilet.  It has a box and was inside an envelope from cardstock.  I retrieved it immediately removed the envelope and the case and dried outside carefully with paper towel.  I accidentally hit the power button and saw that he was still working.  I put to sleep then, but not the do not power off.  Then I put it in a bag of rice for the 4 hour trip home from my friend's House.  Once home, I turned it on. It seemed fine at first. I did a backup - took 2 minutes of finishing, the screen became fuzzy.  I disabled the power and went looking for solutions.  There seems to be no real agreement, however: let it out in the air? Vacuuming?  Put in front of a fan? Most sites say that the rice actually works.  I also read that even if she looks very good, after drying, it will probably die for good within 2 weeks.  Help?

The fact that you have saved is good - the recommendation is to leave rice for 5 to 7 days, but more likely water damage sensor has been triggered - you must make a decision as to if you want to wait for it (perhaps) work or take it to Apple to have bought a replacement

    First rule of the Wet phone - do not cover the use of wet phone.  Not even for a few moments. It just makes the moisture FRY electronics.  You need to pass the phone immediately and take measures to dry.  The works of method of rice as well as something going - an efficient humidity Extractor who can no longer damage the phone.  You keep buried in rice for about a week.

    But tbh it's probably true that a phone that has been completely immersed in the water never goes over the same.  It's probably going to die sooner or later.

  • What is the best way to remove a drop of water in an image?

    I took a picture when it was raining and I had a few drops in my goal. the corresponding images have a slightly oval light color of the past and I was wondering what approach might be the best and fastest...

    Really appreciate any help!

    Juan

    I had just use the tool burn on those.

    Since they are little blue, you will want to do separately on individual color channels.  Place the tool burn shadows, and a small amount of exposure, say 10% and the airbrush mode.  Slowly, work the brush in compared to the size and toughness to match the spot size, sizing and try not to rush anything.  Once you get the place removed from all 3 color channels, you should find that it looks pretty good in RGB (color).  If you find you need more space, or go too far, use history and go back and try again.

    Is the razor wire along the section of wall on the side of the property next door?  If so, I wonder if it would be incorrect to remove it from the image...  The trash bags should probably go too...

  • What is the best way to buy an iPhone Unlocked 7?

    Hi all

    I am currently using T-Mobile and want to get the new iPhone 7. Since there is no option for a sim-free iPhone, what is the best way to buy the new iPhone? Should I get the T-Mobile one full fare? I know that he will be released version but it will come with a T-Mobile sim so what will do with the sim card? Put it away or give it to T-Mobile? Or should I wait for the version without card sim to appear, which I don't think that will come out until November, and I don't want to wait that long.

    Thank you in advance.

    If you do not want to wait to pay full price for the model from T-Mobile.  You can do whatever you want with the SIM card.

  • Best way to make my SSD works again with a single partition

    There are 2.5 years, I replaced the original on my computer with a SSD hard drive. Months after I installed the beta version of Yosemite, the latest operating system for Mac at the time. To do this, the system created a partition on my drive, in which he has installed the beta version of Yosemite.

    I have today on the same partition, I installed Yosemite, Sierra macOS running. In the other, I have all files, so I want to eliminate. However, when I try to do this by using the disk on my Mac utility, it is not possible; I get a message that says I can't delete the first volume of the disc. When I try to increase the size of the partition on which macOS Sierra operates, so reduced the size of the other, the system won't let me.

    I would like to know what is the best way to make my SSD works with only one partition.

    You cannot delete the last partition that was created, that not 1.

    You can clone the content from the 2nd to the 1st, then you can remove the 2nd.

  • Cannot repair the photo library. The best way to restore from iCloud library?

    The photo library of the system is damaged and cannot be repaired.

    It is said "Photos has attempted to repair the library"Pictures Library 2015 ", but can not open it." .


    I first met problems with this library a week before and at the time where I could repair and open the library successfully, but lacked a month value of photos.

    Given that it was successfully in the iCloud library, I left it to re - sync - but this process suspended several times before the end, and the photo library of the system now seems to be permanently damaged.

    I have no project of marked or impression of faces in the photo library of the system, then I would be happy just to restore from iCloud.

    My plan is to put in place a new - empty - library and then that designate the library of the system.

    If I understand this right, the new (empty) system Photo library will now resynchronize with iCloud and will copy all the contents of this library of back to my Mac.

    Is this correct? It is the most effective way to restore my library?

    And while I'm here - what is the best way to manage a very large library? I had my photo library become corrupted ten three or four times over the past years and have found it necessary to divide into single years to prevent this. I overlooked this piece of household by the end of 2015, and now it's happened again... Surely, there must be an easier way to manage libraries of images of several years?

    Is this correct? It is the most effective way to restore my library?

    Yes, if you don't have a useful upward on your Mac.

    How do you call a large library, I've never had a corrupt Library, I think that your problems are not the result of the size of the library, but rather something else. From my experience it is recommended to maintain a local upward, I use Time machine, but also have a second to the top using a third-party backup solution.

  • best way to put in place a new iMac with saved files?

    Hi all

    I'm new here so please forgive me if I've done something wrong. Just recently got a new iMac and wanted to get all my software work of music and other files installed. I used the Migration Assistant on the iMac to move files from a recent time Machine to the top of my Macbook Pro. After what seemed to be a successful migration, I noticed that Garageband, iMovie and a few other products Apple should be updated. My new iMac has been updated the newer versions until the migration wizard has been used. My questions are, it's best to go on a new set up, and never has that somehow restored my new machine settings to the previous settings of the Macbook Pro? Would it have changed anything wise speed or image and sound quality wise? of resolution, depth of bit or similar?

    Thanks in advance for any help or answers.

  • URGENT! Best way to send a large project FCPX to another editor?

    Hello

    I worked remotely on a FCPX project for a client, and now it's time to transfer so that another editor can finish editing.

    We both have the same files source on our drives.

    As I began the project my end, I have the library FCPX here with the timelines for project I want to send him via Dropbox, BUT that the total library file is 768 GB! I am able to send ONLY the timelines for project? It will be capable of to re-connect media easily its end?

    What is the best way to achieve this?

    Help, please!

    Thank you.

    You may not use the managed media when you are working. Assign an external location for your media in the library properties. Consolidate the library for media are moved out of it. Create a library of transfer where you copy the items you want to share with the other editor. Send it to them. They have a record that must match yours with the media. They reissue the multimedia content.

  • Best way to create a variation of a FCP project

    I have a two hour video that I created in Final Cut 6. It's a pretty complex video, with lots of movement today, I want to make a shorter version of the same video, without altering or modifying the original video.

    I'm trying to understand the best way to do it.

    It would be better to make a copy of the original video and edit this copy in a shorter version of the original, or would it be better to create a new sequence in the initial project and build the new shorter version within this sequence?

    I don't want to confuse or overloading the PCF.

    Duplicate the sequence... and make your stripes and cut downs from there. No need to rebuild.

  • Best way to move the photos to an external drive and subsequent backups? Without using the TM

    I filled out my current 1 GB drive external hard, so have bought another. This time around 4 GB...

    I don't want to see TM this time I just spend all my photos/videos from my Mac to the HD and much obviously, then continue to do that in the future.

    What is the best way to do it? Also, taking into account future backups, I don't want to reproduce the photos/videos.

    At soon all, Russ.

    You can exclude files/folders in Time Machine preferences.

    However, I do not understand what you want to do in the future. If you only have photos in one place, you do not have a backup.

  • What is the best way to import my address and e-mail of Pegasus in Thunderbird?

    I use Windows 7 x 64. I have a number of files and many electronic addresses in the Pegasus Mail client. I'm looking to migrate to Thunderbird. Can you tell me the best way to move my files to Thunderbird?

    Thank you
    Allen Hill

    For your address books, can export you to a format such as CSV?

    To move e-mail messages, the cleaner is to use the IMAP protocol. Then your new client look just the same files you had in Pegasus.

    Unfortunately, email clients tend to use their own systems of storage of e-mail owner and there is no commonly used standards that could help to transfer between clients. If you can export files in mbox format, then Thunderbird can use.
