Can't enable WiFi in iOS 7

My wife has an iPhone 4s and upgraded to iOS7 yesterday.
Today, she's unable to turn on wifi. Even if we go into wifi in the system prefrences, it's like it's diabled. It won't toggle.
If I go in via the drawer at the bottom, it allows me to turn on wifi, but it doesn't actually turn it on.
Airplane mode isn't on. I tried to restart the phone and do a hard refresh and nothing helped.
It's connecting to 3G just fine.

Have the same issues with my moms 4s. I was like why did you upgrade to 7. Everyone always rushes to install the latest. Now it broken. Same deal here. Hold home buuton untill siri comes on. The say "siri please tuen on the wifi". Then it does it. Magic.
But in control center or serttings wifi is still greyed out. My mom went to apple store today and they said the wifi engine is burned out and will be 200 to fix. They didn't even run diagnostic just rudely said wifi engine is burned out.
I did itunes restore and backup. Setup as new device. The wifi turned on again but really slow and no networks found. The after restore I did backup. I mean resotred the phone using the backup. And now don't know what I installed or messed with but the wifi is still fu**ed up. Not turning back on. Still greyed out.

Keyboard shortcuts to enable wifi, anyone?!

How can I use my Bluetooth keyboard to turn on wifi on my Mac mini? I can navigate to the 'network' screen, and highlight 'wifi', but I can't select the 'turn wifi on' option :( I've tried everything, and ive googled everything, I've already got pages of shortcuts but I just can't enable wifi, it's driving me crazy!! Pleeeease help me!!

Well Mouse keys is in Universal Access, but without a pointing device, the only possibility is pressing option key 5 times in a row if that'd been checked already, (alt key for you).
In terminal just try...
ifconfig
is airport or en 1 listed?
Did the sudo command(s) ask for a Password? Where did it fail, with what message?

Is there a device I can purchase to enable wifi on my old iMac, like something that plugs into the ethernet port?

Is there a device I can purchase to enable wifi on my old iMac, like something that plugs into the ethernet port?

Yes! There are lots of wifi adapters that will work with OS 9 on old iMacs. You can find a comprehensive list of them here:
http://lowendmac.com/macdan/md09/mac-os-9-wifi.html
Belkin seems to make a lot of wireless products for OS 9, so that would probably be the name to keep in mind. You can see one of these here:

If you're using an iMac G3, I think those are compatible with AirPort cards, so that's an option too. Good luck!

The first time i turn on my personal hotspot, i chosen usb only, how can i re-enable wifi hotspot?

The first time i turn on my personal hotspot, i chosen usb only, how can i re-enable wifi hotspot?

Yeah, I just noticed it So does this mean I can't wake my S10 thru LAN right? Anyway, do you have any suggestions? I'm looking for a Docking Station, but I can't find any. Can a USB replicator turn this on? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

My iPhone 4s, I can not enable the wifi

The same problem presents me with my iPhone 4, I can not enable the wifi, and the operator said that my warranty expired and I refuse to think that Apple just build these modern devices to last exactly one year, whom I am very grateful can help with this problem, I need to know who I can contact my mail [email protected] regards

See if this helps

If doesn't, you are looking at hardware failure.

HT3669 How can I enable scanning over WiFi with Epson PX-504A?

I have driver 9.00 (9.11?) installed. I am trying to get access to the scanner through wifi.
It seems I can print over WiFi, but the scanner is not connecting.
This works in Linux by installing a network driver and using the Image Scan! software.
How does it work in MacOS?

Hope this is helpful to someone. I have an Epson Xp-300 connected to my MacBook Air through AirPrint/ wifi. The printer doubles as a scanner. When you open up the 'Printers & Scanners' function on the MacBook, you can choose a tab to either print or scan. If you choose scan, you can then choose 'open scanner'. That cranked up the scanner and opened a dialogue box to process the scan. I stuck my photos on the glass, chose 'save to iPhotos', did an 'overview' to make sure all was well and then hit 'scan'. The scanned photos then appeared via wifi in my iPhotos application. Haven't gone past that yet and am still feeling my way but hopefully I'll work out how to stream them to others.

Hey! so i am traveling out of the country. I am extremely confused, if I turn on air plane mode and enable wifi, can i send iMessage without ANY extra charges for being international? Also, what are other good ways to do this and not be charged?

I really need help! also, if there is any other way i can just use wifi without being charged AT ALL would be great

iOS: Understanding airplane mode

Is there a location aware wifi option (or app) that enables wifi at a specific location (home) and automatically disables it when you are away from the specified location?

I manually turn off my wifi when leaving home for several reasons:
1. I don't want my wifi to be on and constantly scanning wifi networks while I am away from home due to privacy reasons. Many retail stores and airports are now tracking users based on their smartphone's wifi pings. They can then store your phone's MAC address (the unique identifier of your phone) to determine how often you visit the store and where you go within the store. It's just a matter of time before they match up your phone's MAC address with your credit card/payment info and then to your identity. The only way to subvert this is to turn off your phone's wifi.
2. For security reasons: Wifi access points can track devices that broadcast their wifi signal, even if they don't ever actually connect to the access point's network. These access points can then store your device's details including your phone's MAC address. Once your phone's MAC address is discovered, it can be targeted by a hacker. In addition, there are multiple well known hacker tools that can be used to scan for smartphone wifi signals in order to detect and then hack your iphone. Bottom line: if your wifi is discoverable, then your device is hackable.
3. I believe it would save battery life if the iphone's wifi is not on and constantly scanning for networks all the time.
There are other reasons as well, but the above are my 3 main reasons for asking about this.
The reminders app is location aware - you can set reminders to alert you when you are at a specific location. So, why not provide the option (or an app) to only enable wifi when you are at home - or any other location where you have an authorized or trusted wifi?
As it is right now, the iphone's wifi is broadcasting 24/7 everywhere you go. Not great for privacy & security. When I turn off my wifi, the phone uses my 4G plan for data and GPS for location services... so wifi is not needed at all for data or location services while I am away from home (and no, wifi does not improve location accuracy, that is a fallacy... there is nothing within the wifi protocol that could ever improve location accuracy). But the point is, wifi should have a location aware option. Otherwise, it's just a matter of time before there is a headline story about how not having this feature is a huge security/privacy problem.

Understood. However, the point that I'm trying to make is that it's not the WiFi access point's security that's in question, it's having your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode that's in question. It's simple: if your phone's WiFi is on, then it is both discoverable and hackable... even when it's not connected to a WiFi network or access point. Here's an article about a drone in London that was created to hack smartphone WiFi signals (and hackers have been doing what this drone does for years):
http://money.cnn.com/2014/03/20/technology/security/drone-phone/
The point is that it's not secure to have your phone's WiFi in an always-on mode. It would be better for privacy and security if Apple made WiFi location aware so that it is only enabled when you are at a trusted location (e.g. your home or office). Or, at least give us the option of location aware WiFi so that each user can determine the best mode for their phone:
(1) Always-On (current default - not secure and many privacy issues).
(2) Trusted mode (only on at trusted locations).
(3) Off.

Since upgrade to IOS 10.9 and associated iTunes 11.1.3, I can no longer WiFi sync iPad (IOS 7.0.3) nor iPhone (IOS 6.1.3). USB connection is required. Formerly I could sync both devices without locating them physically (not necessarily charging).

Since upgrade to OS 10.9 and associated iTunes 11.1.3, I can no longer WiFi sync iPad (IOS 7.0.3) nor iPhone (IOS 6.1.3). USB connection is required. Formerly I could sync both devices without locating them physically (not necessarily charging). I have restarted both devices, turned off and on "Sync with this iPad/iPhone over WIFI" and restarted WiFi. WiFi is operating (iPad has no SIM). What next?

I'm also affected by this bug in exactly the same way as you.
Some users have had success by closing iTunes, enetering (on OS 10.9) settings --> network --> edit locations, then create a new location with the same wifi/network settings. Then restarting iTunes.
Others have had some success by editing settings --> iCloud --> de-selecting keychain
neither of these fixes have worked for me.
It appears that the iPad can "see" iTunes running on my iMac because when I open settings --> general --> 'iTunes wifi sync', "sync now" is greyed out if iTunes is not running. When iTunes is started, "sync now" is enabled but just doesn't work. Nor does the iPad appear in iTunes.

Help please, im having big problems enabling wifi sync

Hi everyone,
Im having problems enabling wifi-sync between my Windows PC (Windows 7 - iTunes 11.0.4) and my iPhone 4S (Running iOS 6.1.3)
iTunes lets me check the box "Sync This Phone over WiFi" and when i click Apply - Then Sync the box stays checked but when I look on my iPhone on Settings > General > iTunes Wifi Sync it just still says "To enable Wi-Fi Syncing with iTunes, connect to iTunes on your computer using a cable and click "Syncwith this iPhone over Wi-Fi"."
I have checked that both iphone and PC are connected to same WiFi network, and have tried a FW restore on the iphone and neither have solved the problem. I have also authorised my computer to my apple ID.
Im getting to the end of my tether with this issue now, its strange because my wifes iPod Touch will sync over wifi flawlessly (Same PC, different user account)
Please help if you can...
Regards

Yes, i have been clicking APPLY and then SYNC and then finally "ejecting" the iphone frmo within itunes before i dis-connect it. Its a very odd problem.

I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load. WiFi works for a laptop using windows

I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load. WiFi works ok on a laptop using Windows. I have reset the WiFi settings but this makes no difference.

Thanks, Linc, but that almost helped:
Because the retina 15 only has a wifi connection (no ethernet), that's the connection I'm stuck with for the notebook. But on the 27iMac, I did have both ethernet and wifi enabled. When I turned the wifi off on the 27, therer was a brief moment when both computers were showing their counterparts when I tried to make a network connection. BUT, after a few seconds of 'searching', the computer I was trying to connect to disappeared from the Network list.
So I tried the opposite; the retina can only connect thru wifi, so that's a given. I swithched my ethernet off and then enabed the wifi on the 27 and ....same thing: When I try a network connection, there are a few seconds of 'searching', then the ony option I'm left with is share screen, which doesn't work either.
I've read the 'dropped' network is a problem with the retina, but the odd thing is that I never lose my internet connection—that continues to work fine, as does Air Drop—but I can't seem to connect, network-wise.
Any ideas about the dropped network?

Apple please provide way to disable Edge but enable WiFi

I am planning a trip outside the US. I have read the posts about people who spend a week abroad and come back to an outrageous AT&T bill because of the international Edge usage charges (sometimes even incidental). I called AT&T and yes they have an international data plan but for a 1 week trip I would have to pay $25/month for a year or pay a huge cancellation fee. Another attempt to gouge their customers. So that is not an option. How can I use the wireless on my phone without using edge?? Airplane mode turns off both. There is no way to enable only wifi. How can I do something as simple as check for messages without edge? How can I safely use just wifi at the hotel or other hotspots? I don't want to have to leave my phone in airplane mode for a week but until apple provides a way to disable edge while enabling wifi I most likely will have to.

take paperclip...
unfold paperclip...
insert paperclip into small hole next to headphone jack...
eject sim card...
remove sim card and place in safe spot...
return metal tray to phone...
enjoy using wifi & iPod features of phone...
reverse process to re-enable phone & edge

Hit the F7 key (the one with a white aircraft on it...). This is a kind of turn on/off button for the wireless inteface.
