i accidentally washed my son's ipod shuffle will it ever work again i've heard putting it in rice for a while works but that sounds doubtful any suggestions?

I dont think that putting itin rice will work. 😟 What I would do if i were in your position, is go and shake the water out, and leave the shuffel in a warm place. After that i would take the ipod to the genius bar, and have them take a look at it.

It is mostlikely it wont work again. I have never heard of the rice trick but i higly doubt it. :(

I hope this helped you,

I had an ipod touch that i lost in the winter in the snow. It froze at temps of over -40F all winter and i found it in the spring, in a puddle. I left it to dry overnight and tried plugging it in, nothing. Now i did put it in a bag of rice because the rice will absorb all the moisture, and like a miraicle, the next day i plugged it in and it worked! Sometimes you cannot save things from water damage. But my friends phones and ipods went through the wash and i tell them to put it in rice overnight or longer and about %70 of the time it works. I dont know if its just luck, but from my experience i'd say try that. Leave in rice for about 24-48 hours and then plug it in and see what happened. If it doesnt work you can take it to a geinus bar and have them take a look (maybe at a cost) but theres places online that you can sent it to and pay to get it fixed (if fixable).

Let me know if the rice works!

Huh i guess the rice would work. Well in that case anaisebel65 you should dry it out, and try putting it in a bag of rice. If the rice thing doesnt work then just do what I wrote for you on my first reply. HOPE YOU GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED 🙂
