Cannot Turn On WiFi Even Though Adapter Is Working
Hi, Has anyone encountered the same problem and managed to solve it without using an external adapter? In Device Manager, I've ran the uninstall/install cycle in attempt to fix the issue and installed updated drivers. I don't have any conflicting VPN. The Bluetooth works fine but not the WiFi when I turn on the laptop WiFi button. Here are screenshots: Properties in Device Manager. But WiFi still cannot be turned on, as seen below. The switch always bounces back to 'Off'. Any advice is much appreciated!

I am having problem with signing in i do have icloud id but the password that i am putting in is not working.I do have 2 phones and I only use 1 icloud id and 1 email, so when i tried to resend email i did received it but when i created new password it still did not work.Please help me.
2 ways- 1, from a backup, or 2- if you sign in to icloud from your computer you should be able to get any data you had synced with icloud.
Your other iphone thats using the same ID should also have access to that data. But if the data was not synced or backed up, then no. -
I have a brand new, just out of the box, ipod touch that will not connec to my home wifi. The connection works with all other devices.
What happens when you try to connect?

Does the iPod see the network?
Have you tried other networks?

My daughter stopped using her iPad when she got an iPhone for Christmas. It has been over one month and she has forgotten her passcode. I tried to wipe it via Find my iPhone but it won't connect to the wifi even though wifi is switched on on the lock screen. I then tried to restore it through iTunes but was unable to becuase Find my iPhine was switched on so I removed the iPad from the device list only to find that it didn't solve anything with the iTunes situation and it still won't connect to the wifi. I ahve tried turning wifi on and off, tried leaving the house and re-entering all to no avail. Is there any other way to restore the iPad????
FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTune (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port. Do not release button until you see picture of iTune and plug (very important)
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTune has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTune.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note: Data will be lost -
Cannot access the internet even though I'm connected to my WIFI network

My new Ipad 3 cannot connect to WIFI even it has a full bar of reception. In the same location, my Windows 7 PC and Andorid Smart phone can connect to the same WIFI without any issues. How can I fix it? Without WIFI, the WIFI only IPAD is nearly useless. If it cannot be fixed, can I get a replacement for IPad 2?
Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation. If defective, you'll get a replacement.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
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.
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

After I upgrade my new iOS I found I cannot connect wifi even though I key a correct password unless no password required I manage to connect it please advice me thank you.I also try reset, new setting also cannot
Generally when attempting to join the public wifi at a hotel, it requires you to open a browser window to enter the username and password. Is that happening? Since it would affect all of your wifi settings, I'm hesitant to recommend going into Settings, General, Reset, Reset network settings, but that might be necessary. Have you tried to do a reset on the iPhone? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release?. See if this helps.

My brand new iphone5 will not connect to my home wifi even though it recognizes it. My ipad and my old iphone4s connect with no problem. Any thoughts?
Although your other devices connect okay, it would be worth resetting your router by switching if off for disconnecting it from mains power for 2 minutes and then switch it on again.
Good luck and do report back. -
My apple Tv will not airplay, this is the 3rd one i have exchanged and my devices airplay just fine elsewhere, could there be a problem with the wifi even though all of the other functions are working fine?
Hello there, AntRambo.
The following Knowledge Base articles may provides some steps to go over for troubleshooting your issue:
iOS and OS X: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
And also the following:
iOS: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4215
Particularly but not exclusively of note:
If the AirPlay icon doesn't appear
Ensure that you have followed the steps in using AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring.
If you are still unable to see the AirPlay icon , try one of the following steps:
If trying to AirPlay, or AirPlay mirror, to your Apple TV, ensure that AirPlay is enabled on your Apple TV as well. You can enable or disable AirPlay on Apple TV in the AirPlay menu: Settings > AirPlay.
Check Internet or network connectivity on all affected devices. Some content requires an Internet connection to authorize content playback. AirPlay capabilities may be limited if your network is not connected to the Internet.
If attempting to use AirPlay from a third-party app or a website from your Safari app on your iOS device, confirm that the app or website is AirPlay compatible (refer to the developers of the app or website for additional information).
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I am playing in Pogo and cannot open the games even though the homepage and others will open. The message is THE CONNECTION WAS RESET WHILE THE PAGE WAS LOADING.
All my friends are playing and it seems I am the only one have this problem.The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

Why does Apple not give a list of error messages and possible solutions? I have the (-54) error continually that has suddenly appeared and cannot find a solution, even though other users seem to have the same problem.
This is a user to user forum. Apple isn't here and won't answer you. You need to contact Apple directly. You can use the Contact button at the bottom of the screen.

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
