LisaH 0 #1 July 10, 2010 If it goes through the washer and dryer, are there still pictures on it?? Does it still work?? I borrowed it from someone to grab a few pics but it doesn't fit into my computer. It was in my pants pocket. I feel terrible. Be yourself!

Zep 0 #4 July 10, 2010 Most shopping centers have stand alone vending machines where you put the memory card in and it will print the photos you select. worth a try to see if it still be read. Gone fishing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TImBryant 0 #5 July 10, 2010 I have washed and dried a thumb drive multiple times and it still works fine. I am pretty sure that a memory card will work as well. Give it a few days to make sure it is very dry inside. As long as no electricity passes through it while it is wet, you should be good to go.tagline..... what's a tagline?

theonlyski 3 #18 July 11, 2010 So... uhh... What kinda pics are they? You seem to be pretty worried about them. Funny note: Even if you delete the pictures off a memory card, I can recover them pretty quickly... Makes for good times when I get a used memory card with my camera, or someone gives me one because they upgraded.

skymama 35 #20 July 11, 2010 If a cell phone gets wet, I think you're supposed to put it in a bag of rice to help it dry out.

theonlyski 3 #22 July 11, 2010 Yes, putting phones in DRY and UNCOOKED rice, sealed in a bag and put somewhere warm will allow the water to be absorbed by the rice. The pain in the ass part is if the water was contaminated, because then you have to flush the phone with mineral water (sometimes a few times) to get all of the scum out before you try to fire it back up, or you could let the magic smoke out."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The little packs of silica gel you get with electronics and such work better than rice. They are specifically designed as dessicants. You need to put the silica gel in the oven at very low heat for an hour or so to dry them out before you will get much result from them."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

You are correct, but MOST people have way more rice than silica gel packs in their houses.
