As of 1/16 been unable to connect to any wifi, authentication error.
Valid passwords on various networks (home, work, dr ofc, hair salon,etc) are no longer recognized. Clearly this isn't a router problem but a phone or verizon network issue. Needless to say my productivity has come to a screeching because I cannot access the internet for email, google docs, etc. It's now just a very expensive telephone. Any suggestions ?
thanks for your time!
Had to reset &restore but was able to connect at work today - yippee! hoping for same success at home, and around town.

My ipad2 was working fine last night, but this morning when I woke it up... it no longer was connected to my network. While it can detect networks, it cannot connect to any (have tried at home and at work). I have tried: resetting router, resetting ipad, forgetting network, renewing lease on network, ensuring airplane mode is off, resetting network settings, turning wifi on/off. None of the typical solutions I can find online seem to work. HELP!
You've gone through all of the basics. You might look at this document regarding potential issues with wi-fi environments.

If none of that works, and if a device restore doesn't work, it's time for a trip to the Genius Bar. -
Since I updated to iCloud, (which may or may not be related) Mail on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 has been unable to connect to MobileMe more than once or twice per day. Mail on my iPhone 4 and my old iMac has no problems. When there is no service a yellow warning triangle appears adjacent to the Inbox and Connection Doctor reports,"Trying to log into this MobileMe IMAP account failed. Verify that username and password are correct." Since it does fetch Mail from time to time they cannot be wrong.... can they? Should I update to 10.7 and if so what does that entail?
You have been using MobileMe's email settings, which sometimes continue to work for a time after migration but then get turned off. iCloud's mail server settings are different. Strictly speaking Lion 10.7.2 is required for iCloud, and on that Mail is set up automatically.
Snow Leopard cannot access most of iCloud's facilities, however you can set Mail up manually to access your email. The method is described here:

The situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard is described in detail here:

I have been having trouble connecting to my wifi on my ipad mini but my iPod is just fine......it will connect and then say "Unable to connect to network" I've tried resetting my ipad mini and turning off my router for 30 seconds and its not working.
What TC do you have? Model number direct from the base is a big help, it will be A1 followed by 3 numbers.. eg
A1409 Gen 4.. The new AC is A1470
How is it setup?
I need the whole network setup. what modem/router, how is the TC connected etc??
I also need to know what IP the ipod gets, so I can see what mode the TC or network router is working in. -

i just installed unifi- i then bought a repeater uplink- TL-WA901ND- unfortunately i have been unable to connect/configure the settings to the repeater
Can you get any other wired client to access the Internet when plugged into the AirPort's LAN port? Just not your Win7 laptop? What IP addresses are being assigned to your laptop when connected?
I also tried Extending my wireless network using the Express, but get the error 10057 every time.
Sorry, but this won't work as the Apple routers basically can only extend other Apple routers. -
Hello everyone,
I have been working with AOL for about three months now with no end in sight. I purchased a MacBook Pro in late September and attempted to use Mail (later Outlook with the same results) to download my Gmail and AOL email. I confirmed all the settings were correct for both accounts and began downloading email. Once completed, I noticed only my Gmail had downloaded and AOL stated it was unable to connect to any of the servers. I engaged AOL and they've been making me try random ports, deleting profiles, etc. Nothing was worked.
I am looking here in hopes someone knows something since I'm able to access AOL email via the web, using my iPhone's Mail app, my iPad's mail app, and two of my Windows laptops. Only my MacBook Pro with Retina Display (Mid-2012) has issues. I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 with all updates.
Tried using telnet but get "connection refused". No firewalls are running. I thought maybe it was the OS itself so I installed Office 2010 on Windows 7 in Fusion and Outlook gives me "an encrypted connection to your mail server is not available". This is a clean install with no firewalls, AV, nothing.
In both Windows on Fusion and my Mountain Lion, Outlook and Mail successfully connect to Gmail's IMAP servers but fail to connect to AOL's POP or IMAP servers.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.Thanks for this.
Before I see your suggestion, I did it below that worked well:
- SIgn off the Mac App store (if you were signed in with another Apple ID)
- Leave the Mac App store open
- Quit iTunes and iBooks if they are running
- Open Safari, and go to Preferences/Privacy
- Choose to block cookies "Always"
- Click on "details" under "Remove all website data ..."
- Search for apple.com; select the "apple.com" line then click "Remove", then click "Done"
- Quit Safari
- Open Activity Monitor (search for it using Spotlight or find it in the Applications/Utilities folder)
- In Activity Monitor, search for "storeagent". You should find "storeagent" and possibly "ibookstoreagent"
- Select each of them and force quit them (using the X in the toolbar if you are using Mavericks)
- In the Finder, go to the ~/Library/Cookies folder (go to ~/Library using the "Go" menu while pressing Alt then open the Cookies folder)
- Delete "com.apple.appstore.cookies" and empty the trash.
- Go to the Mac App Store and sign in. This should work. You can press Esc if asked for your username and password a second time.
- Go to Safari, then Preferences/Privacy
- Choose to block cookies "from third parties and advertisers"
- Go back to the Mac App Store. You should be able to use it "normally".
Some steps might be overkill, but it seems to work for me now.
Anyway, thanks!! -
I have an ipad and it's been refusing to connect to the wifi lately no matter where I go,
it used to work and then all of a sudden it wont.
i type in the password and it comes up with 'unable to connect to wifi'
anyone know how I can fix it?First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
I am unable to get my iPhone 4S to connect to any wifi connection, I have reset my phone as well as visitedn my cellular provider without success. Does anyone know how I could possibly get my phone to connect to wifi?
Thanks for the responses, they have been very illuminating!
This is very disappointing from The Carphone Warehouse. If they had mentioned this when I went into their stores, I wouldn't have completed the purchases. I bought two phones at separate outlets and neither of them told me this.
I have been in contact with T-Mobile already as I thought they had sneakily applied a software update that locked the phone. They have denied locking it and suggest that it is something that Apple do. Their solution was a factory reset.
I have a call logged with Apple this afternoon, so will see what they suggest. Hopefully they will give me something that I can take to The Carphone Warehouse or T-Mobile. -
Unable to connect to starbucks wifi
I recently purchased a verizon iPhone 5, but I find that I am unable to connect to any Starbucks wi-fi. I can see and select the "attwifi" network, but then the logon screen appears and spins for ever. I think I tried it in a number of Starbucks locations, and was not able to connect in any of them.
I also tried resetting my network settings, but it didn't help. Is anyone experiencing the same problem?I have been in several public Wi-Fi Networks with my iPhone 5 and experienced various levels of difficulty. What I have found to be successful in most cases is the following...
Settings > Cell Data "OFF"
Now go back to Settings > Wi-Fi and select the network again. I have then had a good stable Wi-Fi Connection. This has happened at Skyline Chili, McDonalds and a local Dance Studio. In some cases my iPhone 5 would not even detect the existing Wi-Fi Network, even while others around me were happily pounding away on their iPads and Cell Phones. After turning Cell Data "Off" I ether could join the Wi-Fi Network, or could Detect and Join the Network. Hope this helps. -
TS1398 Can't connect to hotspot with my iPad, picks it up but unable to connect. Any sugestions?
Can't connect to hotspot with my iPad, picks it up but unable to connect. Any sugestions?
When Access Connections fails to connect it asks if I want to configure the network and there's a bunch of settings. Connection type: infrastructure or Adhoc, Wireless security type "use static WEP keys", "Use Wi-Fi protected Access - Pre Shared Key (WPA-PSK)" - I choose it and under Properties there's more options. Access point authentication, WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK; I've tried it both ways. Data encryption: TKIP or AES, I've been using TKIP. Under Pre-Shared Key, there's the only box I see to enter a password, so I enter the password there.
Chances are pretty good that the problem is the network configuration of your PC and not the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS). What configuration options you choose will depend on how you set up the AEBS's wireless network, but the following can be used as a guideline:
o Connection Type: Infrastructure
o Wireless Security Type:
AirPort Setting = PC Setting
o WEP = WEP
o WPA Personal = WPA-PSK w/TKIP
o WPA2 Personal = WPA-PSK w/AES -
Suddenly my ipad is unable to connect to our wifi. It buffers all the time?
All other devices are working normally. Is this a fault wityh my ipad or have I inadvertantly altered some setting?Some things to try first:

2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
