leave it where it is really dry for at least 5 days. if you try to turn it on too early you can short it, killing it. once you are sure its totally dry, try it.

It is possible, however EXTREMELY unlikely that it will work again. You should dry it thoroughly, the best way being to simply leave it in a warm, dry place for a period of a few days. Don't attempt to turn it on while it's still wet. If it doesn't come back up after it dries out, there's likely nothing that can be done.

The chances of your Ipod working again after being submerged in water are slim to none. Im unsure what Apples warranty states but I doubt it covers being washed.

try soaking it in alcohol and let it dry afterwards for a couple of days, listen alcohol bonds to water and dries quickly, dont be afraid to mess it up, you already did so chances are it wont start again, but i have had a 40% revival this way. good luck.

it definitely can work again, leave it somewhere really dry for at least 5 days. if you try to turn it on too early you can short it, killing it forever. once you are sure its totally dry, try it.

Toast. Let it dryout, it will take at least a month unless you can open it to dry,, then charge it and turn it on. It might work. Don't get your hopes up though.

The one and only thing you can do is soak is in WD-40 and then let dry [>day]
