Can someone please help!..

After cleaning my laptop keys with a wet wipe the keys began to play up, so i turned the laptop off and now it wont switch on at all!! I took the laptop to the apple store where they said it will cost £400 to fix! Does anyone have any idea what will be wrong with it?

Thanks
 
Some moisture probably got behind the keys onto the circuitry. You could try leaving it a few days in a warm place to let it dry out. This should work if no damage was done.
 
What the others said. Oh and would you report back in a couple of days, and let us know if letting it dry did the trick for you? =)
 
Nothing working

Hi there,

I've been letting it dry since Thursday and trying to switch it on but nothing seems to be happening at all 🙁
