[QUOTE="Picike, post: 1618009, member: 337093"] I have a 2 year old daughter who poured some water on my closed macbook sitting on the side of the sofa last night around 6pm. It couldn't be that much as she had to shake the water out from a sippy cup and also one tissue from a normal kleenex box was enough to dry it off, but the water could have been on it for a good minute though and my daughter was playing with her finger with the water on it. As soon as I noticed i dried the laptop, I opened it up and it seemed to be dry inside apart from the very outside edge which was dry only from one quick wipe. There was a small amount of water (just like a fine film) under the laptop probably about the size of my daughter's hand too. As the water didn't seem to be much I didn't pay too much attention to this whole thing. I didn't try to use the laptop all night either. Only just my husband noticed that the computer won't turn on when he got home at midnight. He thought it was out of power, so he plugged it in and noticed that the light of the charger is very faint. The computer still didn't turn on. He didn't know the water accident as I was already asleep and left it on the charger all night. We got up at 7am when he told me what happened and then I realised that it must have been the water. We unplugged the laptop and put it upside down on a towel in the sun with the backdoor slightly open for good ventilation. I am still hoping it would dry out, and hopefully would work, I am also hoping that the water was not too much either to kill the machine, but if anyone has any good suggestions to follow I would highly appreciate it. Thank you [/QUOTE]
