IPod Wi-Fi broken, will no longer connect, network details all blank

Hello,
My iPod has been working fine with Wi-Fi for ages. But today I got home and it's no longer working. At all. To any network.
I clicked on the blue arrow next to my home network and IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS, Search Domains and Client ID are all entirely blank. In fact, there's no information anywhere.
When I try connecting to my network (which suddenly has one bar of health) I get an immediate "Unable to join the network".
Can anybody help? Do I need to send it to Apple to get repaired?
Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben....
There is something else to try!
When you tap the blue arrow you get the screen in which you can tell it to forget networks. Do that then enter your home wifi network name again and password.
If you get nothing I would suspect a faulty Touch !!

IPod 80 GB Classic will no longer connect to computer

All these problems started yesterday afternoon. Earlier that morning, I had synched my iPod with a few new songs without any problems. Then, I wanted to add more that night and all of a sudden, the problems began. My iPod will no longer stay connected to my computer properly. It will connect and will show up on my computer and I can access my files on it for a few seconds before I get an error message saying that the device is no longer plugged in or readable. Then, the iPod icon will disappear, iTunes won't recognize that it is plugged in, yet on my iPod screen it shows that it is connected. I tried to find help on Apple's site but none of their solutions helped and they wanted $30 to assist me, which I think is a little odd.
Is there any way to try to fix my iPod? I would like to sync new songs to it but again, with the problems it won't let me. The only other solution is to try to restore my iPod but it will erase all the songs on it and I don't have backups of them on my computer so once they are gone, they are gone. It would take a long time to get them all back and I can't use a program to rip them off my iPod because, again, it won't stay connected long enough and some of the songs I have are very rare to get ahold of.
I've gone through many steps to try to fix it. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it. I've gone through so many help threads on the support section of the the Apple page and nothing helped. I haven't tried a restore yet because I don't want to lose all my songs. Any ideas as to what is happening? I can't have a warranty repair because I got it as a gift over two years ago.

Read this Apple Support Article on Restoring iPod.
It is on step 6.
Restore would reformat your iPod Hardisk, if it is still in good condition, but some iPod Hardisk may be damage, due to abuse and misuse, so the Restore would fail.
For a successful Restore, I would also suggest that
Disconnect all other USB devices
Use the USB2.0 port
Do not use any USB Hub.

My ipod will no longer connect to itunes

My ipod will no longer connect to itunes except for while it is restarting. However once I get to my log in password it disconnects. Also my computer does not seem to recognize my ipod yet it still manages to charge it even though it is not recognized. I have tried unistalling itunes/ installing it again. I can't seem to reset my ipod, and I have turned off my firewall and disabled my anti virus. Nothing seems to work and I am losing my patience. This just happened out of no where. Does anyone have any suggesting about what I could do?

May somebody please help me?

Ipod model mc544ll. version 4.3.3. Will no longer connect to face time or upload pictures

My iPod model #mc544ll version 4.3.3 will no longer connect to face time. Also I cannot send pictures to my email. I am connected to the internet.

terryconnors, Welcome to the Apple Supprt Communities!
To continue using FaceTime, you must update to iOS 6.1.6 since device certificate is expired.
(especially uploading photos for email)
And you can't use older version at all times.
(For me, I use newer version at all times)

IPod will no longer connect

Both the iPods in my house hold will no longer connect to my computer. They use to do it just fine till now. The computer is on, iTunes is up and running but the iPods won't connect. I haven't changed anything or installed any new devices on the computer either. Ive also reset the iPods, but nothing happened. What happened? Can anyone help me?

Try putting one of the iPods into Disk Mode first.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
Then connect it to the computer.
Other things to try... These are separate things to try. Use a different USB port. If you are using a USB hub, connect it directly to the computer. Remove all USB devices from the computer, except for the keyboard and mouse (remove any USB hubs too); then connect the iPod. Try a different USB docking cable, if possible.

TS1398 ipod will no longer connect to wireless

My ipod will no longer connect you ATT wireless. It did before and my iPhone and iPad still connect jut fine. Any ideas why?

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My iPhone5S will no longer connect to my home wifi but others do.

My iPhone5S will no longer connect to my home wifi but others do. Mine will connect to other networks. I have rebooted the router and the phone, reset Network Settings, deleted the wifi network and reinstated it. Can anyone please help?

Good day Telbuoy,
Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone 5s is not connecting to your home Wi-Fi network. You've done a good job of isolating this behavior to your iPhone and home Wi-Fi router.
There are a few more steps that I'd suggest trying next:
Make sure your iPhone is updated to the latest iOS version using the steps in Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
Make sure your router is using the settings in Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points.
Update your Wi-Fi router with the latest firmware and make sure the router supports your Apple product. For more information, contact the manufacturer of your router. (from If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won’t connect to a Wi-Fi network)
Best Regards,
Jeremy

5C will no longer connect to my home network, but all other devices do.

We had a service interuption and lost the wifi network at home for a while. When the network came back my 5C will no longer connect to the network, even though all of the other devices will. It will connect to wifi on other networks. I reset the router first. On my phone I have updated to the latest IOS, shut the phone off, forgotten the network, reset the network settings and reset the phone settings. Still will not connect to the network. It acts like it is trying but never makes it. I do not recieve an error message of any sort. What is the next step?

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)

    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list

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.

IPhone 4s 5.0.1 will no longer connect to wifi

Updated to iOS 5.0.1 and now my 4s will no longer connect to wifi. iOS 5.0 worked perfectly. Now the phone tries to connect to wifi but fails every time and the battery drains faster than water from an unstopped sink. My guess is that the battery drain is due to the phone trying to connect to wifi. I have done all the usual things. My phone is 4 ft from my router (and it worked perfectly under iOS 5.0). I have restored the phone on iTunes with no change. I would love to go back to iOS 5.0.

Just checked my wife's iPhone 4. Did an over the air update to 5.0.1 and apparently that killed the wifi on that phone as well. My iPad 1 and iPod Touch works fine.

My iphone 4s and ipad 2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi but non-mac lap top has no issues

my iphone 4s and ipad2 both with 7.0.4 update will no longer connect to wifi.
About three days ago the ability to connect came and went and the connection never lasted more than 10-15 minutes; it has not been able to connect since last night. I do not think it's my wifi router as non-mac lap top has no issues. I have seem many similar questions posted.

Reboot your router by removing all power from it for about 15 seconds. Also, if your router still has its default SSID (such as LINKSYS, DLINK, NETGEAR, etc) change the SSID to something unique. Note that all other devices on your network will have to be reconnected if you change the name, but if the name is still the default that is most likely your problem.
If the SSID is not the default then the reboot should fix it.
