Hi all,
I have a 13inch Air with ultimate configuration, recently had an accident my son spilled coffee on the keyboard.
We were on our way out at that time and i simply wiped of the coffee with some tissue and clean cloth and closed it off before we headed out.
Came back and opened it up and nothing was happening, long press on the power button and gave it a while before i clicked on the power button again, still nothing.
I'm very worried now.
I'm comfortable with osX, ubuntu recently had installed rEFIt and had installed ubuntu on another partition, i understand that it pretty much voids my warranty and guarantee ?.
I'm ok with opening it up and have it cleaned and left in rice for a while to absorb any moisture and giving it another try to boot up.
issue is MacBook Air 5-Point Pentalobe Screwdriver, cant find it anywhere and not able to find any UK based seller.(while writing this thread i found one thebookyard.com)
is there any advice or tips that i can follow? which can lead to better results?
in worst case scenario , is it worth it to just go to an apple store and ask them to have a look?
as i said before, i'm worried, worried about the data and worried about dual boot installation since this is my first apple product not sure what response to expect from the apple support personal.
thanks for your advice, appreciate your response.
