Macbook Spill! HELP!?
So in all my glory assholes, spilled half a cup of milk directly into the keyboard of my new Macbook. Immediately closing itself off. Is this a sign of death? I (with my reflexes of a cat, terror-induced) dumped out all the milk immediately Remove the battery and put it up to drain / dry. That was 10 hours ago. I have afraid to try restarting. How long should I wait? Is there a possibility Survival after an auto-off? Apple wants $ 900 to fix it if you need a new motherboard. Is that even worth it? Should I get a new one few hundred extras? AppleCare does not cover accidental damage.
I did the same to my MacBook Pro last boyfriend for years. With milk - thing are the possibilities even if it dried - as we did - there will still be some serious questions. With her - the LCD was ruined as well as some guts. We had to pay a $ 1,200 in damages. Really, I would wait a day or two. Turn it on - see if the display has problems or anything. If things do not work, you will have to repair. Good job on what you've done well, he's been doing the right things. It also depends on the damage. There is a chance it can work. What I do in your case if you have to get the screen or replacing the motherboard - I would buy a new one, sell that piece or "as is" on e-bay of the difference between the price of new laptop what repairs have been (as if the new costs you $ 1,200 - for which they sold $ 300) You may obtain a renewed MacBook for less also. Good luck and What I did was take the MacBook Pro at the genius bar after drying. They argued the hard drive (inside still worked) and then replaced the screen and keyboard - but it took three weeks to do so. I still hate how Apple AppleCare does accidental damage - Sony and HP both make and is the same price. I was so angry when I figured it out.
How I got reimbursed $1100 for a $1300 mistake -- I am a moron
