Airplane mode wifi
I am hooking my Iphone upto a WiFi connection while in Airlane mode. It shows connected to the wifi but when I search in safari or try to connect to itunes, It says that I am not connected. Please Help!!!
Usually you have to go into "Settings" and make sure that your Wifi is connected......AFTER you turn Airplane mode on. I am assuming that you are referring to using your own or a free Wifi connection.

I don't have celluar data on my Ipad. what app do I use? In the place on the Apple support screen there are, Airplane mode, Wifi and bluetooth.
Thank you in advance for your help because I don't want to take this back but if I can't figure out how to use it, I will have to.Henry ~ Welcome to the Support Communities.

Push Notifications only work in Airplane Mode + Wifi
I have a problem with my push notifications. They only work exactly when I have my phone in Airplane Mode and with Wifi enabled. Here are the details of my phone:
Phone: iPhone 3GS
OS: 3.1.2, NOT jailbroken, NOT unlocked
Activation: Not Hacktivated
Data: "Unlimited Mobile Browsing" - others report that they are able to get Push notifications through this connection on my cell phone provider
Push Notifications: Do not work when not in Airplane Mode
I have search the internet for countless hours for a solution and although I have discovered some threads where people have the same problem, no solution was provided.
Please help me,
ThanksIt could be there's not enough signal for the push notifications to come through. I hardly get them on the 3G network due to having 3 bars or 4 bars. Also doesn't work good indoors. When I have 5 bars, I'll be able to receive them.
It could be a network issue to speak with the carrier or "Mark the Spot" app as no coverage/no data if you have AT&T. It could also be Apple's Push Notification Service having problems while they update their service to have Push and Local separated. -
I am currently living in Europe and using my iPhone on airplane mode when I have wifi. My iMessage is switched to my icloud e-mail address and when I go to my setting to switch it back to my number, it is grayed out and not an option to click. This was working before with my number so I know that it's not from being on airplane mode. How do I get it back to my number?
They need to go into their settings>messages and make sure iMessage is on. Also they should click on the send & receive button to make sure their phone number is selected.

Let me just say that I didn't get the answer I wanted from contacting apple care and the customer service rep was very rude and gave me what seemed like a short answer just to get me off the line. So here I am hoping that someone can give me a straight answer.
I have an iPhone 4S and I have not had cellular service associated with it for over a year now. It's basically acting as an iPod touch right now.
Yesterday I took a car trip to Boston with my wife and I was playing around with google maps. I had loaded our destination prior to leaving our home so the route information was still loaded. I have my 4s on airplane mode all the time so constantly searching for a signal wouldn't drain my battery. I turn wifi off when I'm not in a hotspot for the same reason as well. So as I was looking at our route info I noticed that the little node that indicates your position was moving along with our corresponding location almost as accurate as any other gps. This concerns me because
1- I have no service on this phone
2- airplane mode is enabled
3- wifi is disabled
Now the even weirder thing is that my son has a nexus tablet. Just strictly wifi. We pulled into a rest stop and conveniently it had free wifi. So I loaded our route info onto his Google device. When we got back on the road I turned wifi off on his tablet and SHOCKER the node was moving along with our position.
I want to know why my iPhone 4S running on iOS 7.0.4 is receiving gps data when all of the supporting features are turned off. As an added concern I would like to know why my sons wifi-only tablet is receiving gps data as well.
What is apple doing with its devices or what is google doing to their devices and/or application software.
Thank you to whoever helps me out with this.Because GPS has nothing to do with WiFi, cellular signals, or data of any sort. GPS is implemented by signals sent by satellites that are received by GPS receivers. The receivers process the information from the GPS satellites and calculate your location. GPS never sends data anywhere; GPS functionality is receive only.
If you have WiFi or cellular data turned on this can improve the accuracy of GPS, because the GPS receiver can then use the known location of cell towers and WiFi networks to refine the GPS location. GPS by itself has an accuracy of 10 meters, or about 34 feet. Using the additional information from WiFi and cellular data this can be brought down to 3 meters (10 feet). This mode is called Augmented GPS, or A-GPS. -

I downloaded two movies from I tunes and tried to watch on airplane. It would not let me because in airplane mode. How do I get movies to I pad so I can watch on plane without wifi. I have a new iPad air
You did try tapping on one of them in that list in the iPod app! This has happened to me and I was able to start the movie from there. You could try restarting the iPad, go into the iPod app and try again.
Now I'm stumped unless it is a corrupt download. You did download right onto the iPad - correct? If you downloaded in iTunes, there is a Move tab or function that you have to select to transfer the movies to the iPad when you sync. They just don't sync over without selecting move. -
My iMessage will not use wifi to send messages unless the phone is on Airplane mode
I cannot send or receive texts at home because there is insufficient service at my house so I use iMessage over wifi. The issue is that when I am on wifi and out of service the phone will not send iMessages or texts over wifi unless the phone is in Airplane mode. Does anyone know how to make wifi the default iMessage so that I can send iMessages over wifi without going to Airplane mode? It tries to send them but it acts as if there is no service when I have full wifi and as soon as I switch to Airplane mode and keep wifi connected, all messages send fine.
Do the basic troubleshooting steps, as needed, described in the User Guide, Appemdix B: restart, reset, restore using a backup, restore as new.

I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 7. I'm in Jamaica for my honeymoon and have been in airplane mode the entire time. I've connected to wifi several times to check email, Facebook, and to iMessage family to let them know we arrived safely. When I checked my usage, I noticed it had increased. Does this mean I'm using data? And if so, how is this possible in airplane mode? I'm scared I've racked up a pretty large bill for myself.
Yes, you're using data, but not cellular data. In Airplane Mode, ALL iPhone radios are off...so, you can't use cellular data. However, you can go back into settings & turn WiFi on.

Trying to confirm wifi overseas while in airplane mode
I'll be traveling to UK and India in the next few weeks and I want to confirm that there aren't any gotcha's when you use wifi while in airplane mode. I tested it at home and it works fine. I assume that there aren't any charges for accessing the Internet, but not using any cellular networking.
You can't use wifi while in airplane mode, all RF is disabled. Did you mean Data Roaming? If so you'll only be charged by your operator for calls and texts but will not be able to access the internet or use Visual Voicemail while Data Roaming is disabled.
Wifi access and costs depend on local providers.

B 590 broadcom wifi active but cannot be switched on. Fn F5 switches airplane mode :(
My B590 from June 2014 was delivered with W8 but my dealer exchanged it for 7 home premium on purchase date and with that my wifi always worked fine.
I got 8.1 on a stick in case I wanted to upgrade which I now did (and already regret, what a piece of MS junk!).
Problem: the usual Fn F5 switches airplane mode on/off and the switch for wifi which is located beneath is always GREYED and OFF. Bios checks OK, Wifi is on, driver is installed OK and update say latest driver already installed.
I tried to go back to the W7 driver but I cannot change the driver - even if I de-install the original driver the installation of the new one breaks at the last stage. I have also d/l the latest from lenovo but that only comes as exe file, I can not manually extract the inf file from it.
what to do?
regards

I have problem with my iPhone 4s, the problem is i can't turn on wifi, though i have wifi address in my iPhone setting when i go to the general then about option, i tryed many options like turning of iPhone in airplan mode, reset options, but still the same, its gray button of wifi, please help me.
Hello Pllumb,
It sounds like you are unable to turn on Wi-Fi because the option is grayed out in Settings. Use these steps from the following article named:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Can't connect to wifi in airplane mode
Hey all, I am abroad, so have airplane mode on, and am trying to use wifi. Under settings, my Iphone seems connected to the right network. When I open Safari & put in username & pwd, Safari just freezes. I tried Debug Console & got two errors:

I can't reset the router or wifi as I'm at a hotel, but I have no trouble connecting to the same wifi network with my laptop, using Internet Explorer as a browser. Can anyone kindly help?P.S. I did that a few times, also tried turning off wifi and turning it back on and trying again, also rebooted, and then tried the debug console. Then, unable to figure out those error messages, I posted

I have an iPhone 4S with sprint. I had to replace my phone after the new update killed my wifi button and wouldn't let me turn my phone off. Since I've had my new phone, I haven't been getting 3G. I have tried resetting my networks, Turing airplane mode off/on and restarting my phone. Nothing seems to work. Any info on what I should do next would be great.
If you have set this phone up, then there would not necessarily be a solution here until you have been verify with the provider that everything is provisioned correctly on their end. Since the 3G comes from your cellular provider, if the settings are correct on the phone, then you should work with the carrier next.
