My iPad 2 doesn't have the app store I have looked in everything, reset the home screen and the restrictions is off but I still can't find it.

My iPad 2 doesn't have the app store I have looked in everything, reset the home screen and the restrictions is off but I still can't find it.

If you got the iPad from your school, and the Installing Apps restriction is 'off' but greyed out (as you 've said here https://discussions.apple.com/message/16137325#16137325) so that the App Store app is hidden, then it's likely that your school has set the restriction - you will need to ask them to remove the restriction for you.

I just updated firefox and now when i play online games ,my home button and my login in button does not work,also my refresh button is gone. Please help me with this problem. THANKS

i updated firefox to the newest version,now my login and home button does not work,also my refresh button dissapeared. I play alot of games and need those buttons to switch back and forth to other games. THANKS

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

How has moving the Home button and the refresh button improved Firefox? Peo grow accustomed to the location of features, moving them does not improve the browser.

Moving the location of features such as the Home button and the sometimes refresh button does not improve the function of the browser. It simply forces users to re-learn the location of these features and put up with the associated inconvenience. Why, what have you gained?

what a ridiculous reply. moving the home button is a pain when it has been on he left for many years now. why the change? are you trying to mimic ie? i hope not.
it doesn't create more space on the toolbar - in fact he default setting for firefox 4 removes space. by moving the home buttons and other buttons back it increases the space back to where it was before.
also why did the history button change to be a button on its own rather thn attached to the forward / back buttons?
to say it's not worth changing it for one person is a nonsense answer. i know loads of people who say it sucks so have had to customize it to change it back to how it was.

IPod 4th Gen will no longer connect to my home wifi, what can I do?

This problem started recently, I would arrive home, take my iPod off airplane mode (and yes, wifi did turn on) but my iPod would just not connect to my home wifi. I went to wifi>choose a network and manually selected my network but when I did, it would say "Unable to joine the network 'network name'". This problem slowly got worse: when I would wake up in the mornings or after not using my iPod for a long period of time, the same issue would occur! Usually it would take at least an hour if i was lucky of consatant retrying before, miraculously, it would connect. That was, up until yesterday though, when it would just simply not connect and display the message. I have tried almost everything I could think of: forgetting the network, restarting the iPod, restarting the modem/router (its an all in one setup), and even resetting the iPod but it just won't work, so now i'm stuck with a wiped iPod that just won't connect. One last thing, all my other wireless devices (iPad, PS3, laptop) work just fine and my iPod can connect to other networks. Please help me as I use my iPod very frequently and can't even restore to iCloud back-up.

New Ipad mini will not connect automatically to home WiFi network

I use a range of Apple devices at home, IPhone 4, MacBook Pro and IMAC.
They all see and connect automatically to my WiFi home network. I never experienced any difficulty with my DLINK router.
I have received a couple of days ago my new Ipad mini (Wifi+ cellullar), running IOS 602, but not equipped with a SIM card.
The device never connects automatically to the home WiFi network.
I need to open the Settings app, chose the WiFi submenu and select manually my "dlink" network. Then only can I work with my network.
I need to perform this each time I leave my home or I restart the device.
As I am experienced with Apple devices I noticed this behaviour right away and can confirm that the settings on the Ipad mini are the same as the ones of the IPhone 4. I am certain that this is a bug.
Any suggestion to overcome this major frustration?
Patrick

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

make sure your home wireless network is not "hidden." Settings -> Wi-Fi -> select your home network, it it's hidden, select "other" and manually type in the network name, password, and select security type.

I am having problems connecting to my home wifi with my iphone4s

Over the past couple of weeks I have experienced a problem connecting to my home wifi service (Sky) with my iphone4s although my laptop connects fine. My phone also picks up the wifi at my place of work. At home when in close proximity to the router (netgear) on the phone the network name appears in the wifi settings but on the wifi networks page it does not get a tick against the name (wheel just keeps revolving). I have taken it back to the retailer (Vodaphone) and they recommend it be sent back to Apple (Liverpool or Manchester) as they consider it a hardware fault. I will be without the phone for probably 1-2 weeks and I use it within my working environment regularly.
Has any one any ideas?
jd
ps. If I go down the route of 'forget this Network' will I need to do any resets on the router as I cant find the username and password when I enter my IP address for the router.

TS1398 Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 my phone will not auto-connect to the home WiFi network.

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 and now my phone will not auto-connect to the home wifi network. Each time I leave and return to within range of the network I have to remember to manually connect, otherwise it continues to use 4G for data. The credentials are saved (all I have to do is tap it to connect) but just won't happen automatically any more.
Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Tried the reset multiple times. No go. Before the IOS 7.0,2 update my devices were connecting to home WIFI eventually.

How to connect your Verizon 4510L to your home Wifi Network

Hello there!
I recently set my mom up with one of these guys and ran into the problem of having more than 5 devices that need to connect to the Internet and/or each other. I couldn't find any resources online that described how this can be done, or even if it is allowed. So I figured I would finally contribute to the Online community and share my success with all of you! As a disclaimer: I am not Verizon/Linksys/etc technical support and provide the following information freely and without warranty. The instructions below are specific to my configuration, and while yours WILL work using the same general principles, the exact steps required to make it work may be different. In other words, YMMV Good Luck!
First off, my environment doesn't equal your environment, and what I will describe below is one of the more complex scenarios. You can disregard any extra routers if you only use 1. Here is the environment I had to work with:
A large 2 story home with a basement area as well. The wifi signal does not travel well from floor to floor, so we had to have 1 wireless router per floor. We DID have the luxury of using home wiring to to phsycally connect both routers together, if you don't have that luxury, I might suggest using a "Powerline" adapter to help wire your two routers together. Some devices required wired connectivity on both floors as well, so wireless repeaters would not be sufficient. We purchased 2 routers to accomplish the following task. Brand of router should not matter. If your home is a 1 story, or have adequate coverage from a single router, you can disregard the 2nd (SLAVE) router instructions (4-5) below.
First off, what you will need to make this work:
One or more Wireless Routers (we used Linksys Wireless-G or Wireless-N 4-port routers)
     *EDIT: You need only 1 router, and if an additional access point is needed, purchase an Access Point or repeater with wired/wireless capabilities*
Verizon JetPack 4510L MiFI device
One Wireless Bridge (we used Linksys WET610 1-port Entertainment Bridge)
Next, lets setup the wireless/wired home network to connect all devices with one another:
1) Choose one router to be the MASTER, and the other to simply be your SLAVE/repeater for the other floor.
2) Before physically connecting the MASTER and SLAVE routers together perform the following:
3) On the MASTER router:
     - Change the router IP address to 192.168.10.1
          - The 10 is random, and you can make it whatever you want (as long as it isn't "1"), just remember it and keep it consistent.
     - Configure DHCP (usually on by default) but change the subnet from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.10.x.
          - The reason for changing the DHCP subnet is because your 4510L device uses DHCP as well, and it is configured to use 192.168.1.x
               - They can't be the same or it won't work
     - Configure your wireless SSID and security (preferably WPA2)
4) On the SLAVE router *EDIT: or repeater or access point*:
     - Change the router IP address something outside the DHCP range 1-100, but on the same subnet as the master router (ie. 192.168.10.101)
     - Disable DHCP on the router, as all address assignment is going to come from the MASTER
          - You may want to tape over the WAN port as well to remind yourself that it will not be used
     - Configure your wireless SSID and security to match that of the MASTER router
          - This will make it easier for your clients to use both access points and move throughout your home without having an issue
5) Connect both routers together with Ethernet (either direct cable, home ethernet wiring, powerline adapter, etc)
     - You want to connect both routers using one of the built in network ports (1-4)
There, now you have both floors of your home setup to accept either wired or wireless clients who will be assigned 192.168.10.x IP addresses. However, they will not have access to the Internet...yet!
The MiFi device by default has a long SSID, and the password to connect is on a label on the bottom of it. Power it on in the room next to a computer (probably a windows computer), and view your wireless networks to connect to from the desktop. You will probably see the wireless network name you just created on the routers and the "Verizon ..." MiFi name. Simply make a note of the EXACT SSID being broadcasted by the MiFi device. If you changed the default WiFi password before attempting this, make a note of that new password as well.
Next, lets use the key to making this thing work...the Wireless Bridge. The wireless bridge first needs to be physically connected to either router on ports 1-4. The bridge will get an IP address assigned to it and you will need to find that address out so that you can access it from a web browser. The easiest way to find that out is to connect to the MASTER routers web-based administration page (http://192.168.10.1), click on Status menu->Local network, and then click the "DHCP client table" button. You will find the bridge name and IP address there. Keep that administration window open.
Next, connect your web browser with the bridges IP address so that you can manually configure it to access the MiFi device. The bridge will ask if you want auto or manual configuration, and you want manual. When prompted for the SSID and security type, type in the SSID of the MiFi device EXACTLY as you wrote it down. Next, under security, change the type to WPA2-Personal, and type in the password to access the Verizon MiFi device (either on the sticker under it, or whatever you previously changed it to). Once you complete that setup, the status page should tell you that the bridge is connected and have an IP address (192.168.1.x) assigned to it. Once that is done, you can close your web browser to the wireless bridge.
Disconnect the bridge from the routers network ports and now connect it to the MASTER routers WAN port.
Next, return to the MASTER routers web-based administration page (http://192.168.10.1), click on the Status menu and view the WAN IP information. If everything was connected correctly:
MiFi wirelessly -> Wireless Bridge wired -> Master router WAN port (then optionally wired from port 1) -> Slave router port 1
Then, you should see the WAN IP address of 192.168.1.x assigned to your MASTER router.
If you do see that, then congratulations, open a web browser from any of your wired/wireless clients connected to your home network, and you should be able to access the Internet! You will be able to support as many clients as your Routers will allow you to directly connect (104 if I am not mistaken)...Yay!
I hope my experience helps you all in achieving the same results!
Troubleshooting:
If you do not see a WAN IP address, you might want to power off the MASTER router, the Wireless Bridge and MiFi device. Then in the following order power up each one, one at a time, giving the unit time to fully configure and connect to their respective networks: First MiFi, then the Bridge, then the MASTER router.
After the Master router is fully powered on, test a webpage again from any client connected to your new home network and it should work.
If it _still_ doesn't work, I would recheck the steps listed above to see if anything was missed. Particularly, making sure you changed the router IP and DHCP subnet of the MASTER router to something other than 192.168.1.x.
Good Luck!

Q: "In your example of using the wireless repeater, assuming it is on a different floor than the main router, how are the clients connecting to the network on that floor?"
A: However you like, both devices support thier own cabled and wireless connections.
I assume you are only interested in wireless client connections since cable connections are straight forward. Depending on how you setup the SSID's clients will connect to either the router or the repeater and they should be overlapping eachother a little.
Same SSID:
If the router and repeater share the same SSID then the client will decide on thier own which one to connect to. The client will roam between the two on its own criteria as the user moves around the enviornment. Roaming and transitioning will happen seamlessly for you and you should not notice a break in your connection unless you have something really specific connected to the internet. In most cases you cannot influence this behavior on your devices as they all have thier own criteria for choosing one SSID over another with a similar name.
Different SSID:
If the SSID's are different then the user must manually connect to one network or the other. Roaming will not be seamless and as the user walks out of range the client will be disconnected from the device. This provides the best reliability and control but requires more user intervention.
Q:"So correct me if I am wrong, but in your setup, there would be 2 wifi network, and the soft limitation of 4 devices on the repeater floor.
A. Nope, the repeater will support as many devices as it can, depending on the model you purchase. Even though the repeater needs a wireless connection with the MiFi, the Repeater rebroadcasts and acts as its own independant wireless router. The MiFi could care lesss how many people are connected to the Repeater, all it see's is one connection. If you removed the MiFi from the repeater then the repeater will continue to broadcast its own SSID. Clients connected to the repeater will not be disconnected from the repeater SSID but they would not recieve internet until the MiFi returns.
With the repeater enviornment you could have 10 people on the repeater, 10 people on the wireless router and 4 people directly conneted to the MiFi all at the same time. I dont suggest it running like that for performance reasons but hopefully you get the idea.

My new iphone4 connected to the internet fine at the store today, but will not connect to my wifi at home - it sees the guest network, but does not give me a place to enter the password

I just got a new iphone 4 (my first one) and the internet worked great at the store, as well as in the parking lot at the grocery store on the way home - yes I was playing with it! Anyway, now that I'm home and the store is closed, it won't connect to my home wifi. It sees the guest network, but it doesn't give me place to put in the password, so I'm not sure if that's why it won't work. Also, I don't know what settings to put in for the screen that comes after the network choice screen - it has IP Addresses with DHCP, BootP, and Statis (I don't know what any of these are or mean!) It also has a 'renew lease' button that I have no idea what to do with, and it has a section with HTTP proxy that is highlighted "off" but also has 'manual' and 'auto' options - maybe these are not set correctly?
Very frustrating that there is no manual, and the website doesn't really help with this at all. Thanks so much!

If you look at the top left of your screen you will either see a 3G (or 4G if you have AT&T) or you will see the wi-fi symbol. If you don't see the wi-fi symbol you are connecting to Gmail through your cellular data plan, not via wi-fi.
To answer your question, it doesn't happen often but when it does the steps I mentioned above will normally resolve it. Hopefully you won't have any further problem with this.

If I'm connected to my home wifi , and I make a call does it still connect to my wifi ro does it switch to my provides wifi .
