3GS Iphone wifi not working after upgrade

I upgraded my 3GS iPhone to version 6.1.1
After upgrading the iPhone I noticed that wifi wasn't working from the typical areas of my house, so I looked for a fix on these Community Forums and elsewhere on the web. Nothing has worked. I reset the network settings and tried amny other proposed fixes. Then, I walked to within 10 feet of the AEBS, and noticed a weak WIFI signal. Bluetooth worked just fine by the way.
I then upgraded my Gen 4 Airport Extreme Base Station to the latest firmware "hoping" that my resolve the loss of WIFI on the iPhone. It didn't.
I am going to try a factory reset next.
Any other recommendations? May the impending iOS 6.1.2 will revive the WIFI on my 3GS? I can only hope at this point.
Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

@shldr2thewheel, you are correct, I accidently typed an extra ".1". The version is 6.1 (10B141). Thanks for the post-spellcheck.

Iphone 3G wifi not working after upgrade

Iphone 3G wifi not working after software upgrade, no proper fix from Apple. APPLE SUPPORT - R U SLEEPING.......

You are not talking to Apple. This is a user to user forum.
If you're using the iPhone 3G, there will be no fix for your problem. The software you have, 4.2.1, is the end of the line for the 3G. Apple is no longer providing software updates for the 3G.

IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2

I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.

In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly.

Time Machine backup over wifi not working after upgrade to 10.6.3

I have a firewire external hard disk connected to directly into my imac which I use for back-up. The imac is wired into an ethernet LAN. I also backup my MacBook Pro to the same hard disk. The MacBook is connected to the backup disk via a wifi link to a router. All has been working well until I upgraded Snow Leopard to 10.6.3 and now the back-up is not working for the MacBook. The same thing happened after the last point release upgrade but at the time I thought it must have been user error. Last time I had to trash the backups and start from scratch. Can anyone shed any light?

Try reselecting the drive (from the laptop) via TM Preferences > Select Disk (first select the "none" drive, then the correct one).
If that doesn't help, try a "full reset" of TM on the laptop, per #A4 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip,* also at the top of this forum.

Wifi not working after upgrade

This morning, after the upgrade of mij MacBook to OSX 10.8.5 my wifi is not working anymore.
Technically it is ok, in recover mode, it is working, so it is a software problem.
Is this a known issue?
Regards,
Eric

There have been a lot of people having this issue...Especially the 2008 model which is the unibody aluminum version. Found that they have to revert back to 10.8.4 to get it working again.

Win 7 Wifi not working after upgrading to 10.9.4

After the update I am not able to get Wifi connection on my Bootcamp 5.1.2 with Windows 7 Professional. The wifi icon gets a red X and it can't se any network at all where it earlier could se several networks. Its running on a Macbook Pro Retina, Mid 2012 2,3GHz i7. Also my external keyboard is not working anymore when booting to Win.
Everything was working perfect before the update and somehow it seems like the the Apple Windows support software is not working anymore (I am guessing).
I have tried to download the support software again to a USB and reinstall on Windows but no change.
Since I have been reading that there has been a issue with a Apple wifi update on 10.8 I tried the workaround from that thread and restarted the bootcamp in many different ways but still no changes.
I guess that this requires a new update from Apple - but I can't find any way to report this issue without having to pay for it!
Anyone who are experiencing the same or maybe someone who has a solution I would appreciate it - thanks.

After i reinstalled Bootcamp with Windows 7 it was all working fine again with OSX 10.9.4.
The bad news is that I just updated OSX again to the new 10.9.5 and now I am back where I started again - no network connections.
It can't be a coincide that it is the same pattern again and a bit annoying if the solution is to reinstall Bootcamp every time there is a update - hope anyone can give me some hints?

HT4972 wifi not working after upgrade to iOS 5.1.1

Upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 and wifi is not being recognised. In the settings>General> wifi is greyed out and says no wifi. I know it is nothing to do with my home network as no other network in the area is showing up either. Other than restoring is there any other 'fix'. I have seen similar complaints from others. Is apple doing anything about it? Grateful for any solution, it is driving me crazy.

I HAVE FOUND A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM AND HOPE IT WORKS FOR ALL OF YOU

Wifi not working after upgrading to mountain lion

As soon as I updated my MacBook Pro from Snow Leapord to Mountain Lion. My wifi doesn't turn ON. It says WIFI "No hardware found".

Yesterday evening I had the same problem. The sound was stuttering a while, and then it was not possible to adjust the volume settings with the keys. Also my computer (laptop MBpro 2009) was slow as ****, when I tried to open the sound preferences.
Even a reboot didn't help, as setting the audio midi settings. The results where terrible.
Just many hours later I was able to solve this problem. I used a program called ICECLEAN.
I checked/Cleaned the preferences files for the SYSTEM and USER.
still no results.
After that I did a full CLEAN USER AND SYSTEM CACHE.
Reboot the machine and then everything worked correctly.
thanks APPLE!

IPhone sync not working after upgrade to 2.02

Hi All,
I upgraded the firmware to 2.02 this morning, and now iTunes will not recognize my iphone when trying to sync. The phone appears in the itunes interface, but everytime I try to sync I get an error message that iTunes cannot find/sync my iPhone?
Anyone experienceing this? Any help?

Had same problem....Apple tech guided me through this procedure that worked fine...
1) Sync your phone so that everything on your computer is as it should be.
2) RESTORE phone to factory settings. This is a choice in iTunes under the Summary tab when you have your iPhone device selected.
3) During this procedure you will be asked if you want to SET AS NEW PHONE. It is important to select YES to this option. This procedure takes some time...15-30 minutes
4) Set up your options for syncing from iTunes under the Info tab. If you change any settings here and ALLOW it, syncing will automatically happen. Make sure your calendar is being synced.
5) Check out the results...should be good.....I needed to sync a number of times to get everything back to normal.
6) Since doing this, the calendar syncs as it should and did before the upgrade, alone with everything else I want to sync.
Good Luck

Earpiece on new iPhone 4 not working after upgrading to 4.2.1

I purchased my first Apple product (iPhone 4) 3 weeks ago with firmware 4.1. Finally I decided to upgrade to 4.2.1. Now when making a call I can't hear a tone or anyone talking to me. Switching to speaker works fine and so do the earbuds when connected. I read many have had the same issue and they just plugged/unplugged their earbuds a few times. Seems the iPhone forgets that the earbuds were unplugged. I tried the same and it didn't help. There is nothing stuck in the jack either. Now what?

I'll lay odds there's a piece of lint or something stuck in the headphone jack. Take a look and try to get it out with a pin or something. Happens occasionally, pretty much always to men as opposed to women. Mainly because we tend to carry our phones in our pants pockets instead of a purse.

My touch screen on my iPhone 4S not working after upgrading to ios 7?

I upgraded to iOS 7 and all the sudden when I go to type in my code to unlock my phone it is really laggy, when I finally get into my phone and go to use the keyboard to type a message it acts like I haven't even touched the screen when I go to type.

Unfortunately with all of the problems and such an unstable OS today is my last day using my iPhone. I love my phone and have had it on my company business account for the last 4 years but it has become so prohibitive to use as a business tool I am forced to move to the company’s Galaxy based phone. I hope at some point in the future things will improve and I can once again have my iPhone back on the company plan. Good luck all I will be rooting for you.

IPhone 4's WIFI has been not working after upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329)

     My IPhone 4 was working fine with its WIFI when it is running in default IOS version, I believe it was 5.x.x version, however after I upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329) then WIFI got very aweired issues again and again.starting from then I never get my WIFI working again:
1. Sometimes I can connect to my home's network and keep alive for 1-2 minutes then WIFI will not work on IPone, my home's router is not working either, I need to restart my home's router manually;
2. I can connect to my office's network and keep alive 5-10 minutes then WIFI is not working, however my office router is not affected; however the following days then I can't connect WIFI to office's network any more.
3. I tried to connect to other public area's free network via WIFI, however never joined in.
     I called Apple's service centre couple of times they have no clues, they said they never met this problem before for WIFI not working after upgraded to IOS 6.1.3 and no suggestions from them at all, every time I called them they gave me the same suggestion, such as restore-re-install, check your own router etc, nothing help, however my friend bought a brand new IPhone 4 with default IOS version 6.1.3 which is working perfectly without any issues on its WIFI then I believe this is a completely software issue.
     I know this is a general issue for Apple users and I refuse to upgrade to higher version as I am not sure the higher version can fix this issue however I am pretty sure the newer version of IOS did bring a lot of new bugs, anyone can provide me any suggestions guys ? THANKS A LOTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Terrence

I have fixed this issue after upgraded my router's firmware finally, this is a completely compatibility issue between Apple and other third party manufactures, hopefully we can get compabitlity list for each future IOS version ahead of time which can potentially avoid such kind of embarrassing situations moving forward, thanks !

Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5

Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5.Please help!!!!!!!!

It seems that settings of mail accounts have something to do with it. I've delete my gmail account and am now using Microsoft Exchange. It seems better, yet not perfect. The issue is definitely due to OS 4.3.1
Apple answer is - no answer. It is a shame that the quality of their products, in terms of design and concept, is not match by a care for customers. It is not normal that I, as a customer, have to spend hours reading Apple Discussions forum to try to understand what the problem is. A little more respect for a customer that spend big $$$ buying their products wouldn't hurt.
