Anyone else having trouble with their iPad disconnecting from wifi since 6.0.1 update

Anyone else having trouble with their iPad dropping wifi about once a week since 6.0.1 update?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with their iCloud Accout from their PC?

    Hello! For some reason, today, on both my iPhone and my PC, will not let me sign into my Mail in my iCloud Account. On my iPhone, it says that the Username and/or Password are incorrect. On my PC it just says "Cannot Load Mail..." Is this happening to anyone else? I've signed in multiple times with sucess! I just cannot access my Mail. Is there anyone with some advice? It would be greatly appreciated!

    Have had the no email situation since last Friday 19/03.
    It keeps saying I have the incorrect username/password.
    Then when I try to login to mail from icloud.com, it comes up with a message, "Cannot load mail".
    I called tech support yesterday. They have escalated to a senior engineer.
    Still no resolution yet.
    My wife's email went down today.

  • HT1665 has anyone else having trouble with their iPad mini and iPhone usb cords? we have 3 mini's in the house and 1 iPhone we don't let the kids plug the iPads in and my wife takes great care charging her iPhone. and still all the usb cords break at the

    ok this is getting a little ridiculous we have 3 ipad mini's and 1 iphone in our household and everyone of the usb cords breaks at the plug that goes into the devices. The latest is my wifes iphone cord and the phone is only 3 weeks old. what gives apple? Never had a problem with the older style cords. Bad thing is they charge a small fortune fo these cords.

    I have three non-working cords as well.  The cable is so flimsy at the connector.  If enough people complain then maybe Apple will try creating a better product!  They should issue some credit or send customers a new cord.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with their keyboards after installing iOS 7.1?

    A few days ago, when the update for iOS 7 came up for me to upgrade to 7.1, I went ahead and upgraded it. After that, my iPad's internal keyboard and the external one I got for it started lagging for no reason.
    I contacted Apple about it and they said to wipe my iPad. After it came up, my internal Keyboard started working like normal again. (I haven't tried my external yet but I'm sure it'll work too.)
    From there, I went ahead and restored my iPad from my iTunes... and the problem came back since my iTunes had 7.1 saved on it.
    What I'd like to know is what happened and why did this happen and if anyone else has had the same problem as me?

    Try resetting the keyboard dictionary

  • Is anyone else having trouble with Siri calling someone from your Contacts on the Iphone 5?

    Has anyone had trouble with Siri on the Iphone 5 in dealing with your Contacts.  She gives all of the correct information on scores for the NFL but not if I ask her to call somebody in my contacts. She has no trouble with which movies are playing tonight at my local theaters.
    If I ask her to call someone from my Contacts, she takes a very long time and then says something like this, "Uh oh, there's a problem. Can you try again?" or something of this nature.  Any help appreciated.  BTW I download my information from Itunes and also had to change my sim card in order for Verizon to keep my same telephone number.

    I have not had this problem. I am new to Siri (with an iPhone 5 upgrade from an i4) and Siri has made a number of calls from my contacts. She asks, which John Doe (if I have more than one), which number (if I have more than one) and off we go.
    Maybe, you have some setting wrong.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with their iPhone on any kind of speakers?

    Just last night, my iPhone 3gs just decided to stop working on any kind of speakers, iHome or other brands. I've plugged my phone into multiple speakers, and my phone will say that it's charging, and the power button to the speakers will say that the speakers are on, but my phone doesn't really register that it's connected to speakers. Whenever I hit play, my iPhone speakers play the music, not the speakers of the iHome. But whenever I plug my iPod classic into any of the speakers, the speakers work just fine. I'm thinking this must be an issue with the recent 4.1 update, but I don't know.
    Does anyone know if there's anything I can do to solve this problem?

    Yes, we all are having this problem. Search for Sony+iPhone and you'll see the threads. I have a Sony clock radio that used to work fine, now it's just a giant charger since applying OS4. Some people have got it to work by doing a hard reset so no apps are running except iPod. This didn't work for me though, and I used to also be able to play Pandora too before the upgrade.
    BTW, I took my iPhone (it's a 3GS) to the Sony store and tried it on the models in the store. It worked with one of them, but not the others, so the newer ones might work. Not very useful if you've had one for a while though.

  • Anyone else having trouble with the iPad cover? Mine just keeps falling off!

    The magnets in the cover appear to have become weak meaning that the cover just keeps Falling off after only having it for a few weeks! The magnets have also left horrible black marks on the back of the iPad!

    I have the SmartCover and have been using it for a month and feel confident in stating that it doesn't fall off or leave horrible black marks in normal use. If your's is doing either of these things, contact Apple for a replacement.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with their iweb website and the Internet Explorer 10 browser?  Mine is not loading properly

    I've tested Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox - everything looks great until I get to IE 10 - after uninstalling and going back to IE9 I'm good to go - but concerned about my client base using IE10 and not being able to visit my website.  Has anyone found a solution?

    Why find a solution for a problem that does not exist.
    If your webpages display properly in modern browsers, then clearly it's an MSIE problem. As usual.
    Identify what does not display properly and then make some adjustments to please all browsers.
    And if your client base primarily uses Windows, why not use a PC to create webpages.
    Or don't use iWeb and learn to code yourself. Which is always a good idea, with or without iWeb.
    There are tons of topics on the internet about MSIE exceptions.
    And remember, Windows users have choice too.

  • Is anyone else having trouble syncing their text shortcuts from Mavericks to iOS 7?

    Text shortcuts created in Mavericks aren't syncing to iPhone/iPad, but syncing is working the other way around (i.e., shortcuts created on the iPad are syncing to iPhone and Mavericks).

    Have had the no email situation since last Friday 19/03.
    It keeps saying I have the incorrect username/password.

  • Is anyone else having trouble with bookmarks in Windows Safari 4?

    Is anyone else having trouble with their bookmarks in the Windows version of Safari 4? The Bookmarks Bar imported when I upgraded from Safari 3.2.2. But the Bookmarks menu can't be seen when I click the icon that looks like an open book. The History & Bookmarks Menu present in cover flow (which by the way I love and have found very useful). But the Bookmarks Menu option remains blank. At first I thought it hadn't imported - but I've realised they have imported, just aren't displaying.
    They are definately imported because the same Bookmarks Menu is still present on my iPhone through MobileMe synch. Also I can get to the bookmarked pages by clicking Alt-Bookmarks. All the bookmarked pages are there (along with being on my iPhone). So they've imported - they just don't display in Coverflow (or any view at all) when I click the open book icon.
    Does anyone have any solutions please.

    Ok I have a fix for that....
    I just figured this problem out for myself with a friend]
    ==============================================================
    CLOSE SAFARI
    go to MY COMPUTER
    C:
    Documents and Settings
    Your name
    Application Data
    Apple Computer
    Safari Folder
    Delete BOOKMARKS.PLIST
    ( Now I have to warn you this WILL DELETE your bookmarks from Safari so back them up before you do this )
    NOW........
    go back and IMPORT your bookmarks
    take all your bookmarks from the "IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX " folder and drop them into the BOOKMARKS MENU at the top ( not the folder just your bookmarks)
    NOW DO NOT DELETE the Imported on xx/xx/xxxx folder
    for some reason when you delete the IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX folder.... It causes them to go missing under BOOKMARKS MENU
    SO as long as you dont delete the IMPORTED ON xx/xx/xxxx folder they will stay in the BOOKMARKS MENU where you can manipulate them
    ALSO... DO NOT DELETE the IMPORTED FROM INTERNET EXPLORER
    or IMPORTED FROM NETSCAPE/ MOZILLA FOLDERS
    that will also cause your bookmarks menu bookmarks to go missing too
    I guess this is a temp. fix for now
    Thanks,
    Christopher

  • Is anyone else having trouble seeing their screens when you are outside?

    Is anyone else having trouble seeing their screens when you are outside?

    When is sunlight, absolutely. Not a problem with the Droid Ultra but rather all phones.
    You ever see the commercial about the Nook devices. The have a special screen to reduce glare allowing you to see your screen in sunlight.
    As far as I know, companies have not implemented this on anycell phone.
    There are after market anti-glare screen protectors
    Check Amazon or eBay, they should be relatively inexpensive.
    Good Luck

  • Anyone else having trouble with Hard Candy Cases?

    I ordered a Hard Candy Case back on 3/22. I subsequently received an e-mail from HCC stating that my case order was changed to the newer 'Kickstand' model. Fine. Just want my case. Now after 60 days of being on the market, I still don't have my case even though HCC debited my Paypal account on 3/22. I can't seem to get a response from them either.
    Anyone else having trouble with HardCandy? I hope I'm an isolated case (sorry!), but I am curious if there is a trend.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    After going away does it come back randomly too? if that is the case, maybe to do with trackpad sensing your gesture correctly?

    Anyone else having trouble with FCPX crashing after the OSX update? It NEVER crashed until the update. The night before last it crashed 20 times in 45 minutes. I can't finish my project because of it.

    There are some patterns of crashes that suggest possible causes and fixes; some users report crashes when FCPX is in the process of loading; others while importing/exporting, etc. Asking to narrow the list of possibilities.
    Suggest starting with three things:
    1) Update the software from the APp Store  if need be.
    2) Trash preferences.
    3) Repair permissions.
