What are the odds I can recover my data completely? and what's the best way of doing it?
I spilled a glass of water on my macbook and now it won't turn on

Depends on the type of macbook, year, etc

It's the standard 2013 model I think. Apple doesn't do data recovery I think
Hudson Young
let it dry out and in the meantime watch louis rossman videos- he most likely has a video on your version macbook (or similar enough) where he's recovering someones data
good luck homey

Pry open that bad boy and take out the hdd and ssd.
Use another computer to get your files off of them, if they aren't shot.

Hi Mike,
Unfortunately, Macbooks that are unable to power on cannot have their data recovered. I would suggest that you use iCloud in the future to keep backups of your data. Please note that any "repair specialists" that claim to be able to salvage your data are not endorsed by Apple and are most likely fraud.
Have a nice day!

how's that?
Is that really true?
Brayden Robinson
Hi Mike,
Yes, it is true. Trust (((me))), I'm Level 10 on the Apple Support Community forums.
Have a nice day!

Your sarcasm isn't appreciated

This is quite possibly the most newfagish thread i've seen in quite some time.

I didn't know where else to turn

Hi Mike,
I'm not being sarcastic. There is no way to recover your data. If you'd like, you can visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple store to see what they can do for you.
Have a nice day!

Louis rossman has a great video explaining how to fix water damaged devices

Pour cleaning alcohol onto the spilled area. Alcohol evaporates the water faster reducing the chance of water damage

It can't be done, literally impossible, delet this post please
Carter Parker
Pretty good. All you have to do is remove the HDD/SSD and put it in a new laptop if everything is actually fried
Carson Wood
Put the hard drive in an external enclosure and plug it in another computer. If it doesn't work, don't bother, or pay some lab 2000 bucks to recover your data. If the drive is physically damaged, there's really not much you can do.
Henry Stewart
I'm pretty sure this doesnt work because apple programmed their drives to be non-interchangeable, both in hardware and software terms, unless they do it. It's like they did with those laptops or phones or whatever that started bricking itself when it realized the screen was an "unofficial" replacement
Brandon Campbell
satania where are you?
Carson Davis
Open it, remove battery, remove ssd, dry SSD let it sit for a few days, pop it in another laptop/m.2 adapter
Jaxon Gray
Put it in a bag of rice
Zachary Evans
tim apple said data recovery was impossible
Nathaniel Sanders
>2000
Can it really cost that much?
I don't know how to do that. Someone needs to do it for me
Currently is
Justin Miller
apple is inkjet level
Jeremiah Garcia
Nathan Edwards
what if you just make all the connections with wires though? also that doesnt make sense since it will cost a lot to produce in mass
Charles Brooks
No I said they do this shit on both the hardware and software level, once you power on their software will recognize your third-party hardware as non-compliant and will probably brick itself
>that doesnt make sense since it will cost a lot to produce in mass
wow it's almost like apple products are expensive
