If Your Apple Mac Fell in Water

It will now stay there forever including after restarting Mail or your Mac. To clean up afterwards, first go your Outbox and delete the test email sitting in your Outbox Go back to Mail » Preferences » Accounts; Highlight your account, and change the 'Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)' to what it was originally. The Mac OS was disk-based from the beginning, as RAM had to be conserved, but this 'Startup Disk' could still be temporarily ejected. (Ejecting the root filesystem remained an unusual feature of the classic Mac OS until System 7.) One floppy disk was sufficient to store the System Software, an application and the data files created with the.

After letting it stay for some time upside down, I returned it to normal position and removed the keycaps of the buttons where the water spilled, but the water didn't seem to have entered, because all of them were dry below the keycap (I didn't remove the power keycap to see though, because I didn't want to turn the macbook on). Problem: When we attempt a Remote Control session to the latest OS X 'Mojave 10.14 Mac build', the mouse and keyboard are completely non-functional.While the Live Connect screen shows the preview correctly but when a remote is initiated the cursor and keyboard are unusable. Mac OS X has several bootup symbols, including a universal 'prohibitory' sign that indicates critical files are missing from the boot volume. Topher Kessler Jan. 29, 2010 10:33 a.m.

Let’s pretend your Apple Mac laptop fell in a puddle of dirty water and was completely submerged for a few minutes. Is there any possibility to resuscitate your beloved electronic device?

Unfortunately, the chances are pretty low, so don’t get your hopes up too high; however, there are some things you can do to try and fix the problem:

Remove the battery (If possible! If not, ask for it to be taken out at Genius bar at an Apple store), immediately unplug the power adapter, disconnect all peripherals and power cord. Fill a bucket with distilled water and slosh the MBP around in it in every direction, upside down, etc. (You may use a mild solvent bath, and a light thinner or even alcohol, since it draws the water out and evaporates faster; however, keep in mind that if the solvent is too strong, it’ll melt stuff, so stay away from MEK or acetone).

Stand it on each side and keep flipping it until water stops draining out. Turn the computer over with the lid partly open and the hinge facing upward to let the liquid drain. Do not flop your unhappy Mac over and lay it flat – you want to separate it from the moisture. Place cloth towels or paper under the machine to sop up the mess.

After that, let it dry for at least three to five days in plain sunlight, rotating the side it stands on each day.

Don’t try to turn it on before it is completely dry. When it seems like all the moisture is completely gone, then you can give it a shot. If nothing happens, no sound or lights, then it’s possible the innards were still wet. If this is the case, wait for a few more days.

Water in your Mac is a pretty difficult issue to solve, so be prepared to hear from a technician that your Mac may never recover. Your only option if it is dead, is to try and sell it for what it’s now worth (just a few dollars) and buy a new one. (If your homeowners’ insurance covers computers, it might actually be the best option, but just make sure to notify them of the accident right away).

There is a chance that even if your Mac does start up after the drying process, it will not work later. Sugary, acidic or milky drinks will cause problems as the residue starts slowly corroding the computer innards. Hopefully this hasn’t happened to you and if it has, we hope we have helped you get your Mac up and running again!
