Wifi not picking up on my iPhone

My wifi has stopped working on my iphone but works on my macbook as normal. this just seemed to happen out of the blue yesterday. the phone seems to recognise the wifi signal but when i try to use it, it doesn't work and I can't use it to get online! I've tried turning phone off and on again, resetting network settings, turning the router off and on, logging out and in to my wifi account but to no avail! Any ideas?

  • Wifi not picked up all the time

    Hi there fellow users...hope you can help. I don't understand why my phone seems to drop its wi fi connection when i am at home. wi fi is fine laptop works with it and phone usually does but here's the problem....when iphone goes into sleep mode and i slide to unlock it is using either edge (or the other network i cant remember its name.... not3g) even though the wi fi signal is excellent. Sometimes it wont connect at all and i have to close the phone down and power up again. any ideas because this is seriously starting to annoy me!!
    also why does it take hours for my phone to notify me that i have had an email in my yahoo account?
    Thanks so much for reading any help much appreciated!!

    When connected via wi-fi, the cellular network is always available in the background since visual voicemail messages are downloaded to the iPhone via the cellular data or internet network only.
    Even though you may see the cellular data network briefly when waking your iPhone from sleep when connected via wi-fi, it should quickly reconnect to the network.
    I suggest selecting your wireless network on your iPhone followed by selecting Forget This Network. Then reconnect your iPhone to your wireless network. If your wireless network is password protected, this will require re-entering the password for your wireless network.
    Is your Yahoo account a free account accessed with your iPhone's mail client as a Push-IMAP account?
    Yahoo has had some ongoing problems and if you are accessing your Yahoo account via IMAP or POP using Fetch, there have been some reported problems with Fetch access since firmware update 2.1 was released.

    My dad gave me an iPhone 3G to use as an ipod touch but it's not picking up wifi. ive tried everything to like reseting the network settings turning wi fi off and on mutable times, turned the phone off on and on. What do i do?
    the iphone never really picked up wi fi when it was used as a phone and it didnt really matter because he had unlimited internet but it still wont go on wi fi. does any one know why it is doing this?
    The iphone works fine other wise i just really want it to go on wi fi. We just got new wi fi too and all of our other apple products go on the wi fi just fine. I dont know if its because its newer or what but my brothers 1st gen ipod goes on wi fi just fine.
    The iphone is updated to the latest ios too
    WHAT SHOULD I DO!!!!!!!!!!!???????

  • My Macbook Air does not pick up wifi from Airport but iMac, iPad and iPhone do. Help please.

    My Macbook Air does not pick up wifi from Airport but iMac, iPad and iPhone do. Help please.

    Are you testing in the same room as the TC?
    Power cycle the TC.. does it show up now?
    Has it ever showed up .. ie is this a problem that just started from an existing setup, or has never worked?
    Is the TC new? If old how old?
    If you continue to have issues.. setup the TC from iMac and preferably using ethernet.
    Change the wireless names to SMB compatible ones, short no spaces, pure alphanumeric.
    Use WPA2 Personal security only.
    Then set the wireless channels manually.. try 11, 6, 1 for 2.4ghz and try 36 or 40 at 5ghz.
    Tell us how that goes.

    LOL.  I just posted same.  It connects to my home, but when I'm at my office my phone (5) does not automatically connect to wi-fi.  I have to manually do it all the time and it also keeps dropping it.  A few other people here have droids, no problem.  Never  had an issue before the upgrade.

  • My iPhone 4 will not pick up any wifi

    Today my iPhone 4 will not pick up ant wifi

    You could look at this link for iOS wifi troubleshooting http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Or you could just turn your phone wifi on and then off. If that doesnt work, try switching it off and restarting. but those are not really guaranteed to work though. The link should help in the least anyway.
    hope this helped,

  • My iPhone 5 will only connect and keep connected if I am about 5feet away from my router. It also will not pick up other wifi sources and will drop Bluetooth. What can I do to solve this problem?

    My iPhone 5 will only connect and keep connected if I am about 5feet away from my router. It also will not pick up other wifi sources and will drop Bluetooth. What can I do to solve this problem?

    Are there any other wireless devices that might cause interference?
    Also are there any nearby Wi-Fi networks that might have the same name as yours? It amazing how many Linksys Wi-Fi networks are out there.

    Hi can anyone help me, my daughters macbook will not pick up the wireless signal in her bedroom when me and my wifes iphone picks it up easy. any ideas to help please.Andy

    P.S i;ve heard a comment about the G5 case not being
    great for wireless so the cards come with a plastic
    antena that connects to the back of the machine - i
    never recieved one of these - could that be the
    problem?
    Newer G5 PowerMacs don't require the external t-shaped aerial, earlier models do and that is probably the cause of the problem.

  • HT1386 Ever since updating my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.3, it refuses to sync and will not pick a song while trying to listen to music on my phone?

    So, I thought it was great that apple came out with a new update to fix the bugs of iOS7, however it seems that it created more problematic bugs...
    My iTunes is updated to the latest version, as is my iPhone. No matter how many times I plug it in to the computer it absolutely will not sync new music onto my phone. It says it is syncing, but in reality nothing on my phone has changed. No new music, nothing.
    I have turned my computer on/off as well as my phone.
    Also, no matter what it will not pick a song when I am 'trying' to listen to music on my phone. It just swipes through them all super fast and never stops! Why?!
    Today, I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.4 and it didn't fix the issues.
    Is there a way to fix this, or do I just have to wait until Apple comes out with a new update to fix it??

    I have a very similar problem in Arizona, USA. Virgin Mobile is my carrier. Early in October, the phone seems to have lost it's 3G ability and is exceedingly hesitant to connect to any WiFi networks other than my home WiFi. I've spent countless hours on the phone with my service provider and they have escalated my problem to a higher tier tech group that is looking at the problem now. I've also called AppleCare to ask if I could revert to iOS 6 and was informed that Apple products, once and update has been added, are unable to revert or move backwards. AppleCare said they would like to just exchange my phone for a new one but I am 50 days outside the 1 year limited manufacturer warranty period. Virgin, of course, will not replace the phone for me despite this being a network problem. The responsibility of which should fall on their shoulders. My side of the contract is to pay and pay on time which I have always done. Their side is to provide the services promised at time of purchase and they have dropped the ball. Hope someone out there has an awesome suggestion that doesn't involve going into iTunes and tweaking it or jailbreaking the phone. Until then....namaste.

  • I can not pick up a wifi connection anywere

    Ive just got the Iphone 5 and for some reason i can not pick up a WIFI connection anywere ? I've tried it at work were everyone is  connected to it and mine will not pick it up please help

    If the Start Firewall button is grey (inactive) check to see if the pad lock is "locked" in the lower left corner of the screen.  If so, click it and enter the Administrator password to unlock it.  Then you can start the firewall.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT3529 My wife and I both have an iphone.   We initially created it under her apple id.   We will receive each others text messages from certain people not all.   Any ideas why and what we can do to stop it

    My wife and I both have an iphone.  We initially set them up under one apple id account.  When we text sometimes we will receive each others text messages from others.   Example I will text a friend...she will not see my text but the reply comes to both of us.  It seems to be random which ones.  Any ideas how to correct this

    Yup, get your own AppleID.
    The messages that are being sent to both phones are technically not text, they are Apple's iMessage. They use the data part, not the texting part. So if you have an iPad or a Mac computer, you can send/receive the iMessages there too.
