Another solution that worked for the iOS 6 WiFi issue...

After the iOS 6 install my wifi connect just wouldn't connect anymore. I tried everything in the book. I was even changing settings on my router at one point. Nothing worked. It would connect for a second, drop off and then try to bring up a login screen from Apple.com with the message "Page cannot be found."
This is weird but it solved my problem both on my iPhone 4S and my iPad 3:
Settings>Safari>Clear History
Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data
Hold down the Sleep button until it brings up the Power Off slider. Power off and then turn on again.
Reconnect to wifi network using Settings>Wi-Fi
Now everything is hunky dory. Super weird!

Thanks for the suggestion. I followed them to the letter. I have a time capsule and a base station. I switched the time capsule as you suggested. I got rid of the previous connection on the ipad and connected. At first when it started I had full bars. I walked to the opposite side of the house (2000 sq. ft house) was going strong and it dropped to one bar. If I turn the ipad off for awhile full strength comes back. Unfortunately, in my experience no joy.

    is there a downgrade that works for the iphone 4s from ios 6 to 5.1.1

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • KT6 Delta Rebooting Issues - Solution that Worked for me

    Hi
    Solution that worked for me: Enabled SATA Controller which takes a while for it to detect SATA Drive and giving time for the system to warm up.  I don't get that annoying message asking to restart Windows in safe mode, normal, & etc.  
    I've been having this rebooting problem lately. I tried everything from BIOS settings, checking drivers for problems, checking Windows XP, Power Supply, Checking Motherboard,and etc. I installed a fresh copy of Windows but still had that rebooting problem. When I got this MB 3 months ago, it was working perfectly and had no rebooting problmes. But its now fall in my place and the temp a bit cold.
    I read about the temperature issue (20C). I disbaled the SATA controller because i don't have a SATA Drive.  
    Hope this will help others as well and for MSI to Fix the Problem.

  • Thinkpad yoga - limited connection - intel 7260AC (with solution that worked for me)

    limited connection issue
    i'm new to the forum, sorry for bad english
    i've a brand new rhinkpad yoga, with win 8.1 and intel ac 7260 wifi card
    first of all the solution that worked for me is moving from WEP to WPA2 protection with the router
    the problem was that i wasn't able to connect to internet using wifi
    i got "limited connection" and i wasn't able to access internet at all
    windows validated the connection and obtained an ip, but it wasn't then unable to access internet at all, i also wasn't able to access or ping the router.
    i also got an error stating the lack of the default gateway, but this one seems to be resolved by windows check and repair procedures
    my router had wep protection, and i used it with no issues with 2 android smartphones, an android tablet, a mac and a linux system, and in the past with windows 7 and vista systems.
    i've searched for solution all the night and checked everything
    - system and driver update (via usb thetering)
    - various command to reset network configuration
    - unchecking selected check box in energy saving tab inside wireless property panel
    but the only one solution that worked was the move from WEP to WPA2
    hope this helps
    my first post, be patient...

    From what I gathered, about the Y2P Limited Wifi issue, this problem is solved by configurating a router to meet the computer needs. Once done, to fully implement this fix, it is adviced  that you carry this configured router and use it every where you go, like a power cord. When you go to Statbuck in the monrining, be sure they hook up your router and return it when you leave. Alternitively, this can be done at other venues like the airport, hotel, school, work, etc. 
    I really don't know why people keep wasteing their time. Lenovo has chimed in and said this is a router issue. That said, the aformentioned advice is a formulated fix.  Shall we put an end to thiese topics and get the forum moving again past the wifi issues? Like said many times, this issue has been fixed using the above reccomendation.

  • Airtunes audio drop out solution that worked for me! :)

    setup is DSL modem, AEBS main base station (software v5.6), AE (software v6.2), AE is in WDS mode as a remote base station. I am running OSX 10.4.3, and all software (itunes, etc) is updated current as of 6Nov2005.
    using airport admin utility, i set both base stations to "g only" and still had audio drop outs. Then I left both of them on g only and set both of them on channel 5, (was on channel 10 before.) no airtunes drop outs!!
    I have been audio drop-out free for a few days now and am cautiously optimistic- enough to post my solution. hope it works for you, too!

    Thanks Bryan! Glad to hear you found a solution that works for you. Your suggestions are also among the many solutions previously posted in the mother of all discussions on this topic found at:

  • I have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

    i have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

    This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

  • IPod classic error 50, 53, 69, etc solution that worked for me

    Giving back to the community that I spent so long searching in for a solution to this problem--even though I ended up with my own solution that may or may not work for you.
    I bought a 6th gen 160GB iPod classic and tried to sync it to my massive 14,000(+)-song library. The sucker would give me all sorts of errors (50, 53, 69) and never complete my sync. It said my files were corrupted or that an unknown error occurred yada yada. I looked on the forums for a solution and none of them worked. I sent that iPod back and got a 7th gen 160GB instead. SAME ISSUE. MY GOD. My only guess was that since both iPods came from a Mac computer there was some issue with it connecting to Windows--ever after reformatting it.
    So, I knew about formatting my iPod and then restoring it to try and resolve the issue that turingtest2 often would point out in many threads similar to this: iPod Classic
    What I never did was a full format. But more specifically, I never did a full format and waited for it to finish.
    The fix that worked for me was this (and I'm giving my exact order, even if the steps were unnecessary--as the fact that it worked was like a dream come true):
    1) Go to My Computer, right click on Computer in the sidebar and click on Manage.
    2) After the window pops up, click on Device Manager and then Universal Serial Bus Controllers.
    3) Make sure your iPod is plugged in, and right click Apple Mobile Device USB Driver and uninstall it.
    4) Now go to Disk Management in the sidebar. Right click on the iPod and select Format
    5) For format options, select file system as NTFS (I know, I know--but it worked for me), and UNCHECK Quick Format.
    6) Format it, and WAIT for it to finish. It will take a really long time.
    7) After formatting, plug the iPod back in and wait for the driver to install. Open iTunes and restore the iPod.
    8) Wait for the iPod to restore and then sync the music!
    If everything was done correctly it should work, possibly.
    My hard drive specs before this were:
    Retracts: 34
    Reallocs: 9344
    Pending Sectors: 0
    So, the specs were pretty bad, but it still worked for me.
    I actually just got done doing another sync and it still seems to be working fine.
    Good luck!

    I have had success with this method also, but it is not full-proof. Try the movie "The Incredibles". The audio will be about 10-seconds out-of-sync. (BTW, I own this movie).

  • Encoding Audio - Solution that worked for me

    Hi all,
    As some of you may or may not have known, i was having trouble with my iDVD project hanging at the encoding audio stage for about 24 hours.
    Yesterday i decided to try out a suggestion that i had seen on another thread somewhere. Appologies as i cannot recall where i saw it. However it worked for me.
    This is what i did
    I saved my iMovie project as normal (containing 160 clips and 5 songs from my iTunes library) and then closed iMovie.
    I then opened up iDVD and chose 'new project'. I selected the theme i wanted, and then i opened up the 'DVD map' function. I then clicked the plus sumbol and chose 'add new movie'. I then opened up finder, browsed to my iMovie project file and dragged it into the tile i had just created.
    All the scene menus populated as it would have done if i had 'exported' to iDVD from iMovie. I then added some background pictures etc, and burnt the project to 'disc image'.
    The audio encoding part hung for about 2 hours as normal with the beach ball of death but i could see that the iDVD project file in finder was getting larger (a helpful tip that several of you taught me).
    Then the beachball dissapeared and the encoding bar began to fill up blue. And then the image was created.
    All in all it took 4 hours which, for a workaround is fine by me (although a fix would make me happier)
    So i think the trick was to not use the 'export/share to iDVD' option in iMovie.
    On a side note. This method also eradicated the audio lagging that i was experiencing before where the songs at the end of the project were suddenly 2 seconds behind the film when viewed in iDVD.
    I hope that this method works for others experiencing this frustrating problem.
    Kind regards
    LJ

  • Solution that worked for iPad connection to "n" nework!

    So, reading of the many wireless issues with the iPad, specifically connecting to, and maintaining a stable connection to an 802.11'n" network, I decided to do some research. Many solutions here, suggest altering the radio mode to "g" only, as this is what the Ipad seems consistently able to "talk" to.
    After applying the steps below, my iPad now has a completely stable connection to my "n" network. I should mention that I have a dual-band network setup at home, one (b/g) via an older "domed" Airport Extreme Base Station; the other is via an original Time Capsule (circa 2008), which was set to an "802.11n only 5GHz" mode. Using Airport Utility, I could see that in the Wireless tab, the TC "channel" option, was set to "automatic." NOTE: this is BEFORE my modification that solved the issue.
    After reading up on the subject, I learned that the5GHz range of a router can be significantly shorter compared to 2.4GHz; one can move a short distance away from the 5GHz router and your connection will dwindle or drop all together, whereas with a "g" radio mode, in the 2.4GHz mode, the distance allowed, seems far greater. Now, with the channel option of the TC set to "automatic",(under the "wireless" option in Airport Utility setup), it is quite possible that the device is selecting a lower channel, when none is specified. The lower the channel, the lower thepercentage of the transmission rate, which in turn drastically reduces the signal strength, leading to the endless loop of dropped connections, or even worse, the "n" network being invisible to the iPad altogether.
    Here is what I did to produce a totally excellent connection to an 802.11n network, using an Apple Time Capsule (TC). The secret is in forcing the base station to operate ONLY on a higher channel!
    1) Using Airport Utility, use the "manual setup" option to reconfigure the TC. Select the "Airport", then "Wireless" tab.
    2) Select the "Radio Mode" to _802.11n only 5GHz_
    3) Important step! Look at the "Channel" tab - if it is set to "Automatic", this is what needs to change! In the original TC, you will need to hold down the Option key to see the other available channel selections:
    I selected 153, but anything over 149 (including), should produce the desired results. Remember, in the 5GHz range, the higher channel will produce a higher transmission rate.
    4)Still in the Wireless tab, click "wireless options". Make sure that "Use wide channels" is checked.
    5) After the above steps are completed, update your Time Capsule.
    6) Now go to your iPad, open your Settings/Wi-Fi.
    Select your "n" Nework, >configure> select to "Forget this Network".
    Now connect to your "n" network again, you will be prompted for your password, enter it and voila! you should have stable connection "n", without having to resort to the "g" only regression!
    Just for your info, my wireless encryption is set to WPA2 Personal.
    I really hope this works for others as well as it has worked for me. This setup was done over 4 hours ago, and I have experienced consistently excellent range/signal all over my house (4,800 sq ft), through closed doors, on different floors, even the garage!

  • Slider bar that works for the iPad

    Hi guys
    Im not new to Edge however my knowledge of code is basic (Animation, basic functionality and design is my thing). My question is this, I have been able to use code so the bar in my example (LINK) is able to drag in a browser via
    using some code I found on a discussion on this forum, however my problem is that this doesn't translate onto the ipad.
    Please could I receive some direction in where to put this code wether it be on stage level or on the actual item level. The slide that managed to work on the browser
    was entered at stage level under 'compositionReady'
    Im guessing that I will need to introduce 'touchstart' 'touchend' 'touchmove' at some point in the process and again where to drop this in would be really appreciated.
    As you can see I have the relevant JS folder collected within the folder too.
    Once again thanks to anyone who can help and guide me
    Kind regards

    Hi resdesign
    Thank you so much  for your guidance its been awesome. It works really well, the only small thing now is how to contain the slider as it can disappear
    now from view. I have noticed that in one of your links it does describe a containment value so the slider stays within a parameter/box.
    How would this instruction look and fit within the current code im using below
    var dragme = false;
    $(function () {
       var element = sym.$("Divider");
        element.mousedown(function() { dragme = true })
        $(document).mouseup(function() { dragme = false })
        $(document).mousemove(function(e) {
                if(dragme){
                    //Drag left side to the value of x.pageX (direction horizontal)
                    element.offset({
                    //top: e.pageY,
                    left: e.pageX
                //Or use css property values
                //element.css('left', e.pageX);
                //Drag right clip side to the value of x.pageX (direction horizontal)
                //clip values top, right, bottom, left
                var directionX = e.pageX - (clipper.offset().left);
                    clipper.css('clip','rect(927px '+directionX+'px 156px 0px)');

  • No Alarms Work/ical alarms not firing. I have a solution that worked for me

    If anyone has had a look at this thread and still not found a solution...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1215043&start=30&tstart=0
    try this (busycal)...
    http://www.busymac.com/index.html
    I was having serious problems with my iCal alarms. They just weren't firing reliably, and I tried so many things to get it fixed. Nothing worked until I installed busycal. it's perfect! It's been totally rock solid for 20 or so days and I just purchased a full licence. Has very neat features like LAN sharing and google cal syncing. Even if it didn't need these features, I'd still use it because I rely on alarms firing, and busycal does it without issues. Support is also excellent (they email quickly, with accurate/helpful replies, and they've even made suggestions to me about settings I can change to make everything run more smoothly. amazing!) the quality of support, frequent updates and reliable alarms is worth the small registration price along!
    and no, i don't work for them, i'm just a very happy user and hopefully it will help some other frustrated ical users out there!
