3rd Gen not connecting to WiFi

I cannot connect to wifi in hotel even though the ipod itself recognizes the WiFi connection. get error message that Wifi not connected, why?

Have you then tried going to Safari and look for a page that you have to acknowledge the terms and conditions to use the connection?
Next talk to the hotel staff. Some free networks use Flash or Java and can't be used by iDevices.

IPod 3rd Gen Not Connecting to Windows AT ALL

i have an iPod 3rd Gen 10gb. I use firewire to connect it to my iPod. When i connect it, it shows that it is charging but that is all. my computer won't recognize it at all. i tried a new cable, a new firewire card, i bought a USB cable, reinstalling iPod software and iTunes, the 4 R's obviously not restoring cuz it wont connect. i basically tried everything but no luck. any help would be appreciated.

Do you use iTunes 7? If so please read the Topic I posted. Apperently I got the same problem with a new Nano. I discovered that when you attach the iPod DURING a Windows XP reboot it WILL WORK and see the iPod ...... until you disconnect again.
Please see the Topic I posted:

IPod 4th gen not connecting to wifi?

Ok, so here is what happened,
I have had this Ipod since December 2010 I believe, haven't had any major wifi problems with it until now. the wifi has always been on and off I guess, but right now its off like never before. My mom decided to change the wifi password (ended up changing it back) and now the ipod will now connect to the wifi. I have another ipod of the same model (been around for the same time, don't ask, long story) and once the wifi password was changed back, that ipod connected just fine with no problems, didn't even have to re-input the password (same with my iPhone 4). but this ipod that im having trouble with isn't connecting. on the settings, itll say the name of the wifi as if its connected (no wifi bars) but when I go to the wifi settings, it just shows the loading spinning symbol next to the wifi name, and then it will show the same symbol next to "choose a network...", and then it just keeps doing that. It does not say "unable to connect" or anything like that. Ive reset the network settings, ive forgotten the network at least 5 times and have re-entered the password also. ive turned my ipod off a couple times, connected it to iTunes, the whole lot of it. I don't know if its just the wifi (seems considerably weaker since the password was changed, and it was pretty weak to begin with) or what. I can answer any more questions to help find a solution.
And I can not upgrade the wifi, apparently its as upgraded as it can be. But the other two devices still work, but this one ipod is just not connecting. also, the ipod is updated.

Yes, it connected to another network, for some reason it wont connect to mine. I'm right next to the router, but my other devices work, so I don't know if its the network or the iPod. I took it to a store (home button was broken) and they were able to connect it to their Wi-Fi, so I guess it isn't a problem inside the iPod. But, as I said, the three phones in my family all connect, CPU connects, other iPods connect, Xbox 360 connects, my sister's laptop connects, and my tablet connects.... I just got the iPod back from repairing the home button and I reset it (wasn't able to before, assistive touch home button wouldn't let me reset) and it still wont connect. Its weird, because the Wi-Fi bars under the Wi-Fi settings will be shown blue as if its connected (It wont have the check next to it, it will only show the loading spinning symbol; I've left the iPod open and it just keeps loading, it wont say unable to connect, and obviously it wont connect) however the bars are not next to the word "iPod" at the top of the screen. also, in the man page of the settings, the Wi-Fi will not say "not connected", it will actually say the name of my Wi-Fi as if it were connected, but there is not actual connection.
Thanks, hopefully I wont have to restore it... really don't want to do that.

ATV 3rd Gen not connecting to itunes store

Hi,
I have an apple TV 3rd generation and I can only see 2 Tiles ( settings and homesharing)
No netflix, movies, or any other channels are available.
I've tried to sign in to the itunes store but a "cannot connect to iTunes Store" message appears.
Also tried WiFi, ethernet, reseting and restoring the ATV but nothing seems to work.
What can I do?

This could be a symptom of a wide-spread issue with ATV's right now [though looks to be primarily Gen 1 units]. There's an existing topic here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25524317#25524317 Your case could be a sign that the problem has spread beyond jsut the Gen 1 units. It could also jsut be a sign that Apple is trying to address the issue with Gen 1, and it is temporarily affecting other generations.
Be sure to click "I have this question too" in the thread above, and identify the generation of your device in a reply (As it may affect other generations as well.), so that it's all collected in one place. I also suggest to submit the bug via the feedback page https://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html

AppleTv (3rd gen) not connecting either way?

Apple Tv won't connect to the Internet - neither ethernet nor wifi... How's that? (Of course the router's working - that's how I'm writing this...)
NOTE: after being disconnected the whole night IT DID connect, update, etc, then it all went away for no apparent reason, and I'm stuck again with the box not speaking to the net... And it also says "Activation failed" in the "about" section....
I've run out of ideas...

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device 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 your 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 and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I updated an iPod touch, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4 to iOS 6, and all of them now will not connect to WiFi. They all give this wierd 404 error page from Apple and insist that I need to login to the network. Bad job testing the software Apple.

Reset device, reset network, renew lease, etc. None of them work.

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1

IPod Touch 4gen will not connect to wifi no matter what

My white 8gb iPod Touch 4gen will not connect to wifi, I have reset the network and the entire iPod. When I got it for Christmas 2011 it worked perfectly for a few months then all of a sudden it stopped connecting, every connection I try to connect it to says the same thing; unable to join network... I am getting fed up, my first gen iPod Touch will connect to the wifi no problem, but the thing is it keeps crashing. I can't use it for more than a couple of minutes and it goes back to the home screen. If anyone could help, it is greatly appreciated!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

- iOS: How to find the serial number, IMEI, MEID, CDN, and ICCID number

Hi. I have an iPhone 4 and no data plan. When I'm not connected to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but later when I do connect to wifi, I get them telling me they were sent earlier. I don't remember how long this has been happening. Any Help?

Hi. I have an iPhone 4 with iOS7 and no data plan. When I am not connect to wifi I don't receive iMessages, but then when I do connect to wifi I get the messages telling me they were sent earlier. Is there any thing I can do to fix it? I don't remember how long this has been happening but it is very frustrating. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!!!

If you don't have a cellular data plan, then why are you expecting that you will have an active internet connection unless you are connected to wi-fi?
iMessages require either wi-fi or a cellular data connection.

My new iPhone 5 is not connecting to wifi. Please help me.

My new iPhone 5 is not connecting to wifi. I have even updated it to iOS 6.0.2. This is terribly upsetting me. Please help me.

I Found a solution on another discussion thread, do a hard reset by holding the on/off switch at the same time as the centre button. An apple logo comes up. My iphone 5 had been connecting to my home wifi for months and then for the last 2 months kept telling me the password was incorrect. This fixed it and it connected straight away.
