HT202663 Tonight I am having problems keeping my wifi in use when I go into an app. I go in an sign back in to my wifi and it stops again when I go into an app. Have not had this problem until today. Have had my iPad since October. Please help.
I have never had this problem before. I have moved closer to the router and it still does it.
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 drooping 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.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

When I go to the app store on the I pad and tap on an app to get a description, it does not do anything. I have my iPad 2 for just a few days and it did not start doing this until just a few minutes ago. Any suggestions?
I understand that your App Store does not show your app updates. Please follow the steps below to help resolve the issue.
1. Close All Apps on iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
2. Sign out of iTunes & App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap AppleID > Sign out
3. Reset All Settings: Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
4. Reboot iPad
5. Sign back into iTunes and App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Sign In with AppleID
Thank you for being an iTunes store customer. Apple appreciates your business. -

Strange, have not seen this problem addressed yet
When I plug in my Ipod touch, (in any of my USB ports) The pc makes the sounds as if I'm plugging it in, and removing the plug every 2 seconds. When I have Device manager open, it keeps refreshing every 2 seconds. The Ipod works fine on a laptop I have, and works in another laptop thats about 12 yrs old. The pc I cant get it to work on has an AMD 2 gig cpu, and one gig memory. I even formatted my pc, and still get the same problem. BTW, upon looking at my usb ports in device manager, theres no exclamation marks or anything wrong.I'm at a complete loss. I tried uninstalling ITunes, still cant get it to work , Any ideas?
I ask again: Have you tried another cable? Perhaps cable's USB plug connections are slightly damaged. Not enough damaged to cause a problem on most USB ports, but a problem on the ports of your desktop. If you don't have another cable, how about using a cheap USB extension cable http://www.amazon.com/Extension-Cable-Type-Female-Black/dp/B00182CIB8/ref=sr_1_3 ?ie=UTF8&qid=1344538559&sr=8-3&keywords=usb+extension+cable or USB hub http://www.amazon.com/Black-4-Port-High-Speed-USB/dp/B002FFT8Z6/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UT F8&qid=1344538687&sr=8-7&keywords=usb+hub attached to your current cable.

Some of my web pages open a new pop-up window for entering credentilas and display sensitive information. After upgrading t0 3.6.12 i found that firefos is not opening pop-up windows (earlier version allowed). When I close the browser, it gives a quit message saying there are unclosed tabs and windows of firefox. shall they be saved for next time start.
Also observed that the memory usage (from Task manager)is very high compared to earlier ones and the process is not closed even if I close the browser.3.6.13 is also behaving similarly.

having trouble importing individual songs on a CD. Instructions say to select/deselect songs using the check marks by song titles, but they are not there. never had this problem in older versions. Help Please
Are you saying that the tick-box shown in my screenshot, isn't there? (Yes, this is iTunes 11 - I've turned on the sidebar and the Menu bar. So you can see, this is a CD in my drive that we're looking at.)
If it isn't, go to Edit/Preferences/General and turn on the tick-box box
You can show the Menu Bar (with Edit on it) by using CTRL + B -
I have the latest version of Pages 5.2 but I keep getting a message saying I must download the newest version to open my file, has anyone else had this problem?
You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.2 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.2 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

When I try to import pictures from media card to iPhoto, I'm getting the error 'The following file could not be imported. The file is in an unrecognized format.' The file is a jpeg and I've never had this problem before.
What version of iPhoto?
What colour profile is the shot?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
