Why has my ipad lost connectivity to the AT&T cellular data network after upgrading to iOS 8.1.2?  My iPad is model #MD367LL/A, 32 GB WIFI + Cellular, about 2-1/2 years old.

Why has my ipad lost connectivity to the AT&T cellular data network after upgrading to iOS 8.1.2?  My iPad is model #MD367LL/A, 32 GB WIFI + Cellular, about 2-1/2 years old. It;s been working perfectly up until now.  I have no problem on my home WIFI, or through personal hotspot working through my iPhone 5.
I have worked with AT&T, replaced the SIM card with a new one, and done a backup/restore to factory settings, all with the same result that when I turn Cellular
Data on, with or without Enable LTE, it goes into "searching" mode, or reports "no service".  My iPhone 5 works perfectly on iOS 8.1.2, on Cellular.  I've browsed the blogs and have tried Apple's suggested fix, all to no result. 
Oddly enough, every once in a while I do get connected to the network for a short ime (minutes), but it always returns to "searching".
I've filed a report with Apple, along with a request that they contact me, but no results yet.
Help? (and thank you).

Hello razmee209.  Thank you for your response.  I spent the better part of yesterday working with Apple Support.  They tried their best, to include backing up photos to my HP laptop, backing up the iPad to iCloud, then resetting the iPad in total.  Same problem.  I restored from the cloud to recover my apps, same problem.
AT&T installed a new sim card - same problem.  I spent time with AT&T Support yesterday, too.  In both cases, (Apple and AT&T) the support techs who worked with me were extremely polite, courteous and helpful to the best of their abilities, but I think the problem lies deeper, and nobody at Apple is admitting they have a problem with iOS 8, that I'm aware of.
I didn't have this issue before I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2.
Everything else with the iPad works fine:  WIFI, Personal Hotspot, email, all my apps, etc.
In browsing the web for this issue I see that many other folks have the same problem.  I filed a report with Apple this morning, requesting that they contact me, but no word yet.  I was going to go to iPhone 6, and had been considering the iPad Air 2, but I see reports of this problem with those units as well.
At this point I don't think I'll be spending any more money with Apple, at least not till this issue is resolved.
Thanks again for your response and suggestions.

  • Unable to connect to the itunes store on my laptop after upgrading to ios 7.

    I have Windows XP - Service Pack 2 and after upgrading my itunes to ios 7, I am unable to connect to the itunes store.  Every time I click on the itunes store I receive a message that says "itunes could not connect to the itunes store.  An unknown error has occurred (0x80092013). Make sure your network connection is active and try again." Every other device in my house is hooked up to the internet and I am having no problem browsing the internet on this computer.  I tried completely uninstalling all itunes and apple software from my computer and re-installing it and nothing has helped.  Any advice?

  • No longer able to connect and use internet on any wireless network after upgrading to iOS 6

    Everything worked great for the first few hours.  But now whenever I connect to ANY wireless network on my iPad, it connects fine.. When I do anything that involves internet, the wifi logo goes away, and a screen pops up (as if you're using a hotel wireless network) and says "apple - page not found" at the top, and is an apple.com page.  Even though there is no wireless symbol in the upper left corner, I can go to all of the links and everything, but outside of this one window the internet no longer works.
    I have NEVER seen anything like this before.
    I didn't do anything abnormal that would have caused this.
    Thank you.

    Hello pichastos,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where your camera is displaying a black screen, please follow the information outlined below.
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping  (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Take care,

  • HT1212 Weird - don't see the 'Enter' or 'Go' to button after upgrading to ios 7.0.2.

    I don't see the 'Enter' or 'Go' to button after upgrading to ios 7.0.2. Weird screen with just "Enter passcode" and a horizontal entry strip to enter password. there is only 'Done' on keyboard. When i hit 'Done' button screen shakes for a sec and resets the password. I remember my password very well. Need immediate help. Thanks. Must add that i had to restore the ipad from backup after 7.0.2 upgrade

    iPhone required a proper restart. After restart both issues were gone.

  • Why do i have to restart my iphone 4 to connect to cellular data network after moving out of wifi range?

    Whenever I move out of a wifi zone, I expect my iphone to connect to cellular data automatically. But this doesn't happen. I have tried turning flight mode on/off and also tried turning cellular data on / off couple of times, but nothing works.
    I only get the cellular data connection back after I restart my iphone.
    I started having this problem after upgrading to iOS7.
    Any idea how to fix this?

    Hi beingkejo,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Toggling Airplane mode and cellular data are good troubleshooting steps. If your iPhone still does not connect to cellular data automatically when Wi-Fi disconnects, I recommend the additional steps in this article:

    Just upgraded my iPad to iOS 8.1.2 and now, cannot connect to the App Store, iTunes Store, do an iCloud back up, or even open up Facebook for an app. Password is correct. Surely it does not take 12+ hours to update? What gives? Thanks.

  • X10 not connecting to mobile data networks after upgrade to Android 2.3

    My X10 does not connect to GPRS / EDGE / 3G / HSDPA after the upgrade to 2.3. Wifi is no problem, though.
    I used the SIM card in another X10 with Android 2.1, no problem, got an HSDPA connection. And yes, all the boxes are checked: "Data Enabled" and "Data Roaming";
    I had problems before the upgrade to connect to data networks when roaming, but never in my home network. Now, it doesn't seem to work at all.
    Any advice?

    go to settings -> sony ericsson -> data download
    or
    settings -> wireless & networks -> mobile networks -> access point names -> MENU -> add New -> enter the APN info -> MENU -> Save

  • HT4528 After upgrading to iOS 7, my iPhone and iPad can no longer connect to App Store. I did reset all settings, still the same. Please help

    I just upgraded my iPhone 4 and iPad Mini to iOS 7, suddenly they both can no longer access to iTunes nor App Store. The message says "Cannot connect to App Store". After some research, I did reset all, and still the same. Can anyone have a clue? Thanks,

    As I mentioned earlier, when I clicked on the App Store or iTunes Store, the message reads "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" or "Cannot connect to App Store" depending on which I clicked.
    I did check iTunes & App Store, it used to show my Apple ID there, but somehow it shows empty there. I then manually typed in my Apple ID, it just won't work. I know for sure that my Apple ID works as I tried logging online using that ID fine, but my iPhone and iPA

  • Can't sync my iPad 2 and can't open my newly purchased app after upgrading to iOS 7

    Ever since I upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS, I have two problems.
    First off, I can't sync my iPad 2.  This error message keeps popping up: "The iPad '(my ipad name)' could not be synced because the sync session failed to start.  My iTunes is the lates version 11.1.1.11.  I even tried to deauthorize the computer and reauthorize it.  I also tried to log out and log in again.  I also tried to re-install the iPad driver from the Device Manager of my Win 7 (browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers and click OK > next.)   I tried all possible ways suggested in the communities discussions but still can't get the sync to start. 
    Second problem, since I can't sync from the iTunes database, I purchased the app from App Store on my iPad.  After downloading the app, I touched the "OPEN" button but the app could not be launched.  This happens to all app's purchased after I upgraded the iPad to iOS 7, not matter the app is free or costs money.  Apps purchased BEFORE iOS 7 update can be opened without any problem.
    Any suggestion?

    Just think of the third problem.  I can't do backup neither, so I dare not restore my iPad to its default as I didn't do the backup the moment before upgrading it to iOS 7 (which I regret very much now).  I have trusted Apple for years and didn't think of such problems could happen after iOS upgrade.

  • After upgrading to IOS 8.1.2 my ipad 4 wont update apps?

    Help...I updated my Ipad 4 to ios 8.1.2 and now it will not update any of my apps...

    How do you know some stop halfway and others barely start? What are you seeing? While it is possible an app is not compatible with iOS 8.1.2, but I doubt it. If it was working with iOS 8, then it will work with 8.1.2. Try signing out of the App Store and sign back in again.

  • Can't use "like" or "reply" after upgrading to IOS 8 on 3rd gen iPad

    I upgraded my 3rd Gen iPad Wifi to IOS 8, and later to 8.02 and now to 8.1.  I did a complete Restore, using iTunes, and then after that, restored from my back-up on my computer.  Just about everything is working great (NYTimes digital addition without additional fees for iPad, not so great but useable), but I can no longer get either "like" or "reply" to work. 
    Where have I gone wrong?

    Try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds until your iPad starts on it's own.
