Apple really screwed the pooch with IOS 6 and iPad wifi

Around 7 PM EDT my IPad 3 disconnected wifi. Every time I tried to restart it I went to some sort of page at Apple which told me the page (whatever it is) couldn't be found and turned off wifi.
I'm really ****** that Apple has demonstrated - intentionally or not - that they can brick our Apple products whenever they feel like it.
So much for not worrying about Apple products or software.
No way will I even look at the iPhone 5 now!

I really hope these bugs are temporary because I really liked iOS 5 and on paper iOS 6 seems so much better but bugs are just ruining the experience.

    Why is apple releasing the ipad4 witha new and inproved wifi attena without addressing the wifi issue in the ipad3

    Jim Level 5 person ....I am very happy for you that your usage will not be affected, please accept my  congratulations.
    Now I have to point out that going ballistic has certain connotations but posting on an internet forum is not one of them.
    I appear to be one of thousands who are all expressing their outrage in a rational and intelligent manner which cannot be said for your lebvel 4 + collegues on this forum.
    Finally there has been an ongoing issue wiith the iPad 3 Wifi on certain wifi only models , I have not encountered it and it seems clear neither have you. That of course does not discount the fact that many others have experienced this issue , an issue which may reveal itself to you or I in the future particularly as I have only been using mine for a fortnight.

  • Apple has really dropped the ball with iOS 6

    Half of my apps are crashing and it is definitely a lot slower then with iOS 5. Market place lags like crazy and is extremely hard to navigate. Market place app selections take about 15 seconds just to load. My list could go on and on about my unhappiness with iOS 6 but the ones I mentioned are unforgivable. These problems are the reason I switched from android to apple but I guess I spoke too soon

  • Syncing apple notes on my MacBook with iPhone and iPad.Mac ap store that will sync easily with apple notes?

    im trying to sync notes on my iPhone and iPad with my new MacBook pro.
    Although I don't see the generic "apple notes ap" on the macbookpro. Any suggestions?

    eww,
    When I first opened the mail i didn't have the option of the "go to" and choose notes because i hadn't created the mailbox.  I 've only had the mac for 3 days. None the less I created the notes mailbox which apparently falls under "Reminders".
    Will this "notes mailbox" eventually sync with my ipad and iphone.  I have created several notes on the ipad but still don not see them in the "notes mailbox" on my mac?
    Thks very much!

  • Apple has really screwed the pooch on iTunes 7.

    I am venting, ok.
    After spending probably 10 hours rebuilding my tunes library (fortunately I saved it on other disks), I now cannot get the iPod to load the files, and it locks up the PC when it tries.
    I just don't know where to go now. I think something like a class action, which I have always been opposed to, may be in order. This is really inexcusable!
    J-

    I agree. Really bad software. I haven't used my iPod in more than a week because, oh yeah, iTunes 7 wiped it out and turned it into a $200 paperweight. I certainly won't be buying anything from Apple anytime soon.

  • TS3354 so i cant watch my movies now because i dont have the next best computer thanks apple for screwing the guy with a perfectly working computer ... -.-

    i get the message cant be played without windows seven or hdmc format essentially so i cant watch my movies it works perfectly fine i just cant afford windows seven  or a new computer and mine runs great

    In order to get those to work you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard, preferably the full 10.6.8 combo updater.

  • Adobe really screwed the pooch this time...c'mon, when ya gonna fix this?!

    That is all...

    I've started to see the error "only a single instance of this app can run" crop up in the last week or so, I suspect it's part of the download manager but I'll look into it.  However, I suspect you have installed Flash but there's something that's blocking it in IE.  Since you're running IE9, can you first check out your ActiveX Filtering settings?  If that looks fine, please ensure that the Shockwave Flash Object is enabled:
    1. Open the Manage add-ons dialog
    2. Find the Shockwave Flash Object entry and verify that it is enabled.
    If you don't see the Flash Object entry, then you did run into a install problem.  Let me know and we'll  try a few other things.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • I bought my 6 plus last night decided to upgrade the IOS 8 like they suggest and now all I see is a white screen with the apple sign in the middle with an occasional flashing red screen. Did my new phone seriously just crash? What do I do now?

    I bought my 6 plus last night decided to upgrade the IOS 8 like they suggest and now all I see is a white screen with the apple sign in the middle with an occasional flashing red screen. Did my new phone seriously just crash? What do I do now? I left it overnight with the white screen, thinking maybe it'll go away and needs time to upgrade. Woke up this morning, nope still white screen. Very disappointed with Apple. I was so excited to get my phone and can't even use it right now.

    First turn the iPhone off and back on and see if it works.  If that doesn't work then do a Reset by holding the Sleep / Wake Button (The Power Button) and the Home Button at the same time until the white Apple Logo appears, the release both Buttons and wait until a Full Reset occurs.  The iPhone 6 should come back to your Lock-Screen.  If that doesn't work then you could connect the iPhone 6 via the Lightning Cable to a Computer with a Current Version of iTunes.  Then open iTunes on the Computer and wait until your see a Button that represents your attached iPhone and click on it.  This should bring up a Summary Screen on the Computer within iTunes.  At that point your can choose Update Software if an Update is available or Restore the iPhone to Factory Settings / New In The Box, or you could try to Restore from your Backup if a current Backup had already been saved from a previous iPhone.
    If you don't have a computer with iTunes and you can get the iPhone back on, then go to Settings>General>Software Update and see if the iPhone is still on iOS 8.0 or if it is now on iOS 8.0.2

  • Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??

    Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??
    Message is working weird.
    I don't have internet service when I'm away from my WiFi, because my phone won't use LTE now.
    Should I wait for a IOS 8.3.1 update or reset my phone to factory and start over?
    If there's a fix coming when will we see it?
    (I'm using iPhone6 plus)
    I've tried everything else to fix the problems I'm having. Soft restart. Hard restart. Used your chat line. Called Verizon. Reset network settings.... Help!!!!!
    I've posted on the Apple Communities about all this and I've sent in a couple of bug reports.
    I live up in the mountains and MUST be able to access my Verizon LTE for information if there is a fire! I'm in California!

    I have a Verizon iPhone 6 and am having none of those problems.

    Didn't they already have you do that? If you haven't, yes, you should restore your phone as new and test.

    If you are in a situation where you may need emergency information, organizations such as the Red Cross recommend things like this:

  • It's now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5 audio app missing lyrics

    It’s now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5.
    I recently updated to ios 5.1 but nothing has been done to rectify the audio app problems ie lyrics no longer shown,
    I am extremely disappointed and angrywith those responsible for the iOS 5 update, in regard to the way it hasaffected the music app in my iPad.
    I also own an iPhone 4, am an avid Apple fan, and up until now have beenextremely pleased with the devices, and have sung their praises to friends andassociates.
    I am a professional musician, and purchased an iPad primarily to use with theperformance of my music.
    The changes made to the music app affected my performances over the weekendextremely adversely – limiting my repertoire and causing confusion and delays.
    I have spent many hours talking withApple helpline assistants (who, incidentally have been very good and have triedto help), and I have also spent a lot of time on this letter.
    I greatly regret updating to iOS 5.
    There are two major problems with the music app.
    1. Lyrics no longer displayed
    2. Layout, and appearance and consequently performance have seriouslyregressed.
    I have a repertoire of around 500 song backing tracks, organised into about 20playlists, half of which featured lyrics / chords that I have spent monthsrecently entering into iTunes so that they could be used on my iPad.
    These were working fine up until the update - now they are gone.
    Previously, the app featured large icons for playlist, artists, songs etc. atbottom of page: Now there are small, grey, indistinct barely legible buttons.
    Previously, when playlist icon was selected - all the playlists were listedclearly in order on the left hand side in black on white (as in iTunes).
    Now they are scattered across the whole page in large squares (displayingnothing if there is no album art).
    The identifying wording below eachsquare is now small, grey, indistinct & barely legible.
    Previously, when a playlist was selected - the songs were displayed in adescending list in black & white: now they appear as small, grey indistinct & barely legible.
    Previously, when a song was selected - it appeared filling the page, and withaudio controls clearly positioned at top of screen. One tap would bring uplyrics.
    Now audio controls appear at top once again small, grey, indistinct &barely legible.
    A small square representsalbum art which if tapped fills page. A further tap fails to bring up lyrics.

    Lyrics aren't supported in the Music app on iOS 5 on the iPad. These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • There is always a blue screen appears after the Apple logo during the booting process. And then everything is back to normal. What is this thing? Is there something wrong with my screen or something?

    Hello apple
    I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
    My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
    Who have this problem??

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$
