Can't set up ipad!

I've just bought an iPad and am trying to set it up. I've selected my home wifi but it won't connect. I think i may have mistyped the password, but it won't let me try again, or start set up again, so i'm completely stuck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Can I set the Ipad 2 to default to wifi?

Can I set the Ipad 2 to default to wifi?

It is set that way by default, if it finds a trusted WiFi site it will connect with it.
If it goes to sleep the WiFi connection will be cut. If 3G is on and a push notification or email is received it will be via 3G.

Ipad shows all regular Iphone inbound calls as Facetime. I only want true FT calls to appear. I switch audio/video and it still happens. How can I set the Ipad to only register true facetime calls rather than all inbound regular calls? thanks

My Ipad will show all regular inbound calls, from Iphone, as Facetime calls. I would like only TRUE facetime calls to appear. I have switched audio/video on Ipad but it still happens. How can I set the Ipad to only register only true FT calls rather than all inbound calls that a re not facetime calls? Yes, you may have to reread this twice and slowly to understand..... Thanks!

Hi webn,
I understand that you do not wish to see phone calls on your iPad anymore. I have an article for you with some information on accomplishing this goal:
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT6337
Turn off iPhone cellular calls
To turn off iPhone cellular calls on your iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
On your Mac, open the FaceTime app and go to FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings and deselect the iPhone Cellular Calls option.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Afraid not. The iPad is not intended for multiple users.

Can I set up ipad in the and use in uk (uk bought)

I bought my girlfriend an iPad mini for her 18th birthday in the uk, we are in vagas, America for when she will open the gift. Can she set it up in the US and still be able to then take it home to the uk and use it? Thanks

Yes, but she should configure it with her UK information, Apple ID, iTunes account, email, etc. That's all done over the Internet so she only needs a wireless connection to do it. It's all prompted for at the setup when she first turns it on. Read the instructions first.

How can I set up iPad for use as a customer sales tool?

I want to use my new iPad for personal and business. For my business I want to hand to a customer as a self-driven presentation on my business created In Keynote or some similar program. But I'd like to lock all personal content so the customer can only explore my business content and not access personal contacts, music, etc. Can this be done? Recommendations on apps and set-up are appreciated.

Can't be done. All the customer has to do is press the home button and they're able to access all your apps.
You either need different iPads for different purposes, or mount it in a display cabinet that blocks the home button.

Can I set the iPad to use the same client certificate by default?

I have an ipad which has more than one client cert installed. is there a way to select one of the certificates as the default when visiting websites that require client cert auth?
Thanks

I do not know of any way to specify only some bookmarks to open in a new tab. You could middle-click on a bookmark to make it open in a new tab.
There are add-ons that can make all bookmarks open in a new tab, such as:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/13784/ Open Bookmarks in New Tab]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122/ Tab Mix Plus]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59961/ Tab Utilities]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/62581/ Tab Utilities Lite]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14439/ Tabberwocky]
All but the first of those will add many other tab browsing features. There will be other tabbed related add-ons that can open all bookmarks in a new tab, you can find them by searching https://addons.mozilla.org/

Can I set up ipad 3rd generation before preparing my ipad 2 for sale?

I have a new iPad 3rd gen coming. Will it be ok to set up the new one with iTunes and install all my apps, software, settings etc before preparing my iPad 2 for sale?

The key is, back up your 2. As long as you do that full backup before you set up your 3, then your 3 will have the apps and data that was on your 2.
You dont' have to do them in a specific order. Paranoid person that I am, I'd make sure the backup and set up worked before I'd wipe my old one.

If you setup Find my iPad on it before you lost it, and it still has power, and an Internet connection, and has not been wiped, you may be able to locate it by logging in at http://www.icloud.com/

My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?

My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?

Good question, but I'm 99.9% certain the answer is "no". Here are some considerations:
Think of the heritage of iOS. It really started with iPhones and maybe iPods. These devices cost a whole lot less than a Mac. They are generally not thought of as shared (with exceptions, of course, as is true for you).
Think of the backup process. i-devices typically sync with one iTunes on one computer. How would an i-device with multiple users enstantiate this?
Anyway, all this is to say I'm convinced you cannot do what you're inquiring about.

HT4053 can i set up my new iphone 5s using my ipad (because my work laptop wont allow me to installl itunes).?

No, but you do not need iTunes to setup a new iPhone 5s. Create an iCloud backup for anything you want to transfer to the new iPhone.

How can I set up a share virtual printer on my macbook to print to pdf from my iPhone 5 or iPad?

I've never had the occassion to use a virtual printer setup but I've seen where other people have when they need to print to pdf and have no printer available where they are. So, my question is really a spin off of that type of situation, except I have a printer, I just don't want to print. I want to save from my iPad or iPhone to my MacBook's hard drive in pdf format. From what I've seen online, I would imagine it involves setting up a virtual printer on the MacBook that I can set up as a shared printer, but there are so many conflicting responses on setting up a virtual printer and most of them are for older. Does anyone have any experience with setting up a similar virtual printer in Maverick?
For completeness, I'll add system info:
MackBook 5.2 Core 2 Duo 2 GHz upgraded with 4 GB DDR2 RAM and Maverick OS
Obviously the virtual printer needs to support iPrint.

If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?
