Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
Try This - Renew IP Address:
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list

    Hello Jm23ur,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

  • HT4623 Since updating to iOS6 my wifi has not been able to connect properly

    Since updating to iOS6 my wifi has not been able to connect properly.  Has this been a problem for anyone else?

    i have a iphone 4 and had a similar problem with the upgrade, I went into settings,general,cellular,and turned off icloud documents,passbook updates and reading list and it corrected my problems

  • Face time has stopped working since update on iPad and iPhone

    My face time has stopped working since both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S did their iOS 6.1 update. They just say that a connection cannot be made, or FaceTime unavailable. Both devices are sitting beside each other, both have excellent wifi. If you try to FaceTime one of the devices, it will ring once and then lose the connection. Apple account details are all fine, FaceTime is switched on, on both. Kind of lost and frustrated now

    Hey guys,
    So I also noticed a few weeks ago facetime stopped working on my iphone but was still working on my ipad2 and macbook pro.
    Phone - iphone 4
    os version - 6.1.3
    carrier - at&t 14.2
    location - usa
    I use the same apple id for all devices
    I searched online for a fix and/or troubleshooting help. I tried alot of the suggestions on this discussion as well as others but nothing seemed to work. Out of frustration, I finally reached out to apple tech support. I went through the entire trouble shooting steps with an apple technician and was even transferred to a senior advisor for additional help. We tried everything from resetting passwords, resetting icloud accounts, resetting phone settings, checking network settings, resetting date & time, resetting location, making sure push and multitasking functionalities were working properly, etc. We spent a couple hours troubleshooting trying everything but nothing worked. The apple tech said I would have to restore the os and if that didn't work, the only other thing to do would be to send in my phone. But he did stress that I had to restore as a NEW device.
    I backed up my phone using iclould and my computer (everything is synced) and restored as a new device. I tested facetime and it worked, however my phone was back to factory position which is not ideal. So I went to itunes and restored my most resent backup. I got all my phone contents back but FaceTime no longer worked. I called the apple senior advisor back and he said I would not be able to restore from a backup because there seemed to be an issue with it that prevented FaceTime from working properly. So I backed up what I could to itunes and iCloud then restored my phone as new. After the restore, it prompted me to install the carrier software update which I did. Then I used itunes to sync my music, apps, contacts, mail, videos, pics, etc. I did this yesterday and facetime has been working properly since then. However certain things I was not able to recover.
    So far, these are the things I noticed have been lost with the restore:
    - all my settings (everything went back to default/factory)
    - voicemail messages greater than 30 days old
    - all text and iMessages (but I still have copies of imessage conversations on my iPad and mac)
    - data stored within apps (you start fresh like when you first downloaded the app. some apps i have online accounts that sync but most apps the data is lost)
    - screen display configurations
    - notes that were only on phone and not synced with an email account
    Out of all my research, this has been the only thing to get facetime working again. But on the downside, it does take a lot of time to backup, restore, re-sync, and then set up my phone similarly to how I previously had things. The big thing for me was the loss of my apps data. I wish there was a way to restore that. But when all is said and done, I'm glad to have FaceTime back on my phone.
    If you are not quite ready to restore, check out this discussion for other suggestions you can try first:

    I hope you guys find this useful.

  • Ever since the lastet update my calender has not been working properly?

    Recenty after updating my Iphone with the new software, my calender has been losing information and not syncing properly. Any ideas?

    I'm having the same identical problem, however my address book isn't updating neither.  I also noticed that the Apple servers are not checking my email.  I wonder if the iCLOUD is down again?  Apple STATUS never tells us anything until the problem is resolved (:   This has been going on for some time now.  As a businessman I can't wait for emails to appears. 

  • My iPhone 5 has not been working properly please help!!

    I have a 16GB iPhone 5 with the latest update (iOS 7.1.2) and lately (about a week or so) it's not been working right. It first started where the screen would freeze and then I'd have to click the power button and return to lock screen I get it to work again, or sometimes even turn off my phone. Then one day I tried to take a picture and it wouldn't let me?? So I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on it worked again. Then the other day I went to play music and it wouldn't let me. First I tried from the itube app then thought maybe the app wasnt working, so I went to my iTunes music on my phone and that wasn't working. It wouldn't let me press play/pause/next. basically it wouldn't let me do anything and then it just froze. I put it to sleep and went back to my music about 30min later and it was fine. Then today my screen froze so I held down the power button to turn it off. Nothing happened for 10 seconds then the screen just went black, no little spinny thing like what normally comes up when it powers off. Then no matter what I did it wouldn't turn on. I looked up on here how to fix this and found a solution (plugging it into my computer and holding the power and home button for 20 seconds). Anyway, basically what my problem is is that I dont want my phone to be like this? Should I take it in to be looked at or is there maybe an app causing this ?? I honestly have no idea and it just recently started being like this (I've had this phone for 3 months and it's new. It still has about 5GB of space left). Please let me know if you have a solution or if this phone just is like this. Sorry if this isn't very descriptive :/ Ive been able to get my phone working again every time so far, but next time I might not and I really want to fix it. Thank you!!

    Apple is aware of the issue and is workingon an update to address iMessage issues.
    In the meantime I have found that a good old fashion reset cures it for a while.
    Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
    Others have had success with this:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages
    Note: This will clear all wifi passwords.

  • I am really dissatisfied about the Mavs, how can i put it back to my Mountain Lion? since I've downloaded the Mavs, my iMovie, photo, contacts, notes has not been working properly at all. Please help! thanks

    i downloaded the Mavs about 2 days ago. it restarted automatically as it stated... i have not really used it again until tonight. and boy was i so ******!
    after downloading the new OS update, the list below stopped and wont work properly:
    Contacts
    iPhoto
    iMovie
    Notes
    if theres anyone who can help me downgrade it back to Mountain Lion, id GREATLYYY appreciate it a lot.
    Thanks!

    You don't need to downgrade. If it worked in Mountain Lion it will work in Mavericks. Do this:
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is

  • I am trying to set up and sync with icloud but it says my email has not been verified. How do i do this? When i click the email verification nothing comes to my email allowing me to verify.

    how can i get confirmed to sync with icloud?

    You might try contacting iTunes store support.  Even though this is an ID that you want to use for iCloud, it's still an Apple ID.  iTuens store support deals with Apple ID issues all the time and they may be able to help you.  Just explain that you are trying to verify your primary email address for your Apple ID but are not receiving the verification email from Apple, despite multiple attempts to resend it.  You can reach them here: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.
    You might also check with your email provider to be sure they aren't blocking email from [email protected] as spam at their end.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try restarting the phone and trying again.
    If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.

  • Since upgrading my ipad and iphone software i am receiving an error message when sending emails, saying that the email address was rejected by the server.

    Hi,
    Since upgrading my ipad and iphone software i am receiving an error message when sending emails, saying that the email address was rejected by the server.
    Please advise if this is a known problem, and what is the fix.
    Many thanks

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

  • HT201210 In updating my iphone for the new software ios6. An error occurred and now is asking me to restore settings.  But I don't want to lose my data

    In updating my iphone 5 for the new software ios6. An error occurred and now is asking me to restore settings.  But I don't want torestore setting causing not all of my recent data has been synced and I don't want to  lose my data. How can I undo this since i did not hit restore settings, yet i can't do any other move without restoring at this point. Any ideas?

    You phone is in recovery mode.  Your data is already gone.
    Why you would attempt a software upgrade without backing up all your data first is beyond me, but to each his own.
    In any case, sorry for your data loss.

    What I am saying is ..........
    The iPhone HAS to be active making calls on the UK carrier network for the carrier to identify as "theirs" and therefore eligible for the Carrier to unlock
    The way to achieve this is to use a PAYG sim making and receiving calls to establish a customer relationship  with the Carrier and then follow the Carrier's process to unlock
    With a PAYG it usually means adding a specified (by the carrier ) amount  usually £15 /£20 depending on the carrier
    This is how O2 function and according to Gemma  this is how Vodafone work
