After updating two of my 4 devices, Iphone 5 and mini Ipad to 7.0.3, my devices would no longer recognize my network password for my wifi. My other two devices, a regular Ipad and an Iphone 4s were not updated and they connect perfectly to my wifi. Help?
I tried resetting but nothing works...what else can I do?
Some things you can try:
1. Reset router
2. Reset iphone
Some solutions say reset-network-settings on the iphone/ipad, but due to some people getting greyed out wifi, I would not use that approach if possible. There are other ways to achieve the same results.
3. On wifi page, "forget this network" and re-enter password again.
4. Change the password on your wifi router.
5. Change security to none first, get connected on wifi, then change security on router back to WPA2 AES, and re-enter password on iphone/ipad mini.
These are the usual steps we can take to get logged into wifi.

How do I get my iPhone 5 to recognize the correct password for my wifi connection?
All of a sudden, my iPhone dropped my WiFi connection and now will no longer connect when I choose "other," and enter the network name and password. I receive the message, "Incorrect password for *******." My iMac and 2 iPads have no trouble remaining connected to my WiFi network.
Howdy msmedia,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
From your post I see that your iPhone dropped the Wi-Fi connection to your network, and it cannot find the network, nor join it if you manually type in the SSID. To start troubleshooting this issue, I'd like you to please follow the steps outlined below.
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
TapSettings > Wi-Fiand turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed,follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
TapSettings > Wi-Fiand locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
TapandForget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your deviceto the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations,install updates using the AirPort Utility.
Unable to locate a Wi-Fi network
Verify that the network is available by tappingSettings > Wi-Fiand choosing from the available networks.Note:It may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi network name to appear.
Move closer to your wireless router (access point) and attempt to locate the Wi-Fi network.
If you do not see the network you would like to join, you may be attempting to connect to a hidden network. Learnhow to join a hidden network.
Supported Wi-Fi configurations vary by iOS device model. Find outwhich standardsyour device supports3.
Reset network settings by tappingSettings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.Note:This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Unable to connect to a Wi-Fi network
Verify that you're attempting to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Make sure you're entering your Wi-Fi password correctly. Passwords may be case sensitive and may contain numbers or special characters.

Not a good sign. Try forcing the phone into recovery mode & restoring it. If this fails, make an appointment at an Apple store:
Turn your phone off. Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. -
I have an iphone 3g which brought him use me when I brought it worked fine, I updated the system to 4.3.3 and no longer recognizes any network operator, look at the baseband and 5.16.02 and says it is it does not recognize anything I can do? the operator to buy my iphone was a 4 but it was stolen, I thought I could use this but aparentementeno, I can do to make it recognize my carrier? thanks
Looks like you have relocked a hacked phone when you updated. The only way to fix it would be if you could figure out the original carrier and see if they would unlock it.

I recently upgraded iTunes to 11.1.4.62 and then itunes would no longer recognize my iphone 4s and iPod although I can see the iphone but NOT the iPod on the computer (windows 8.1 Pro). I checked everything , cable, services, stop and start and automatice, etc.and went through all the steps on the apple support site, to include removing all apple software in the designated order and reinstalling it. iTunes still doesn't see the iphone.
The Apple iPhone shows up only under protable Devices in the Device Manager window and has a Yellow ! warning triangle, and there is no Apple USB controller in the devices menu.under Universal Serial Bus Controllers. When I look under the properties of the Apple iphone, it says in Device Status, to reinstall the drivers for this device (Code 18).
When I do this, I get the following: "Windows found driver softweare for you device but encountered an error when attempting to install it" Apple Mobile Device Driver One of the installers for th this device cannot perform the installation at this time. I tried both suggested locations on the C: drive.
Also I can't seem to find out how to install the Apple USB Contoller or is that related to the problem above?
The iphone and my ipod work fine with this version of itunes on Windows 7 on my laptop. is it possible that I am missing a critical update from Microsoft on the driver and USB controller? I have been leery of installing them since my computer had problems with some updates in January.
I 've tried every thing listed in this forum, I think, and the Apple support page on this subject. Please help!Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

Both my iPhone & iPad now on version 7 do not display the airplay connection for my Apple TV ?
Hey Barry02,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with AirPlay. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
Because the issue is occurring on both devices, it may be isolated to the Apple TV itself. You may want to troubleshoot the Apple TV connection:

I recently changed my wifi password at home and now my iphone will not connect. It will not ask me for a password just says will not connect to network. Advice on how to get iphone to ask network password for wifi?
First, try tapping on the network in the Wi-Fi settings and then tap "forget this network". Then reselect the network in the main Wi-Fi settings screen and see if will then ask for a password. If not, try resetting the Network Settings in the General -> Reset section and then reconnecting to your W-iFi.
Hope this helps. -

I got a new ipad2 for Christmas and I am unable to get it to accept my password for my wifi. I am using the same password that I have always used for all of my other devices. Can somebody help me????
Hi there
I had the same trouble today, I kept entering the sky password but would not accept, my iMac and iPod work ok but just could not get my iPod to work. But I found the fault, the password is case sensitive and mine on sky is in caps, the up arrows on the keypad put the caps on,but after each letter you must put the caps back or it wil revert to lower case, I hope this may help you -
iPhone 4S is not charging. Upon connecting to macbook air, it gives the power surge alert. Please help.
What do you mean by "power surge alert"? What exactly does it say when you try to connect it? If you're talking about the message about a USB device drawing too much power, that can sometimes be caused by a bad cable or something stuck in the port. Do you have another cable you can try?

Keeps coming up:"The following files were not imported because they could not be read." And it's ALL the photos. never had this problem be4. what gives? Using an SD card, its a 64GB 600x Speed . I'm on a Mac 10.8.5; iPhoto has no problem importing them.
In order to see the windows that show sharing and permissions I gave you above, you have to right click on the the item, e.g. folder, HD, etc., and this window comes up. Then you right click on "Get Info" and the windows with S/P pop up. In LR%, if I right click on Destinations folder, this is what comes up:
There is no option to "Get Info", and if I right click within Destinations folder, this is what comes up:
Still no "Get Info". If I click on the specific file (in this case "2015), this is all I get: Last thought, yesterday out of desperation, I called the Apple store. I am operating on Mountain Lion operating system, and Yosemite is the latest (as of 10/14). The manager suggested that if there had been an update in LR5 that was now only compatible with this later system, maybe that was the issue and I should consider updating to Yosemite. I had no problem downloading photos as of 9/14, but don't think I've done anymore since their update….when was the last LR5 (I'm using LR5.7 currently)? Do you think this might be the problem with permissions? -
