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.

    Try and force the iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Just bought my ipad and cant connect to my home wifi. Any ideas?

    Just bought my ipad and cant connect to my home wifi trying to do initial set up.
    My wifi is working as my macbook runs off it..any ideas?

    1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again, this will refresh the IP address of the iPad.
    2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    3. Try changing router security e.g. WEP/WPA/WPA2
    4. Have you updated router firmware?

    Folks with the failure to verify issue have been having to reestablish their network services. There are differing approaches to this as you can see in this thread. Different things have worked for different folks, but installing the 10.6.8 update combo is not one of them.

  • HT4623 i just updated my ipad to ios 8 but i cant connect to wifi network..its says my password is incorrect although i know my password is correct as successfully updated 2 iphones and connected to same wifi network

    i just updated my ipad to ios 8 but i cant connect to wifi network..its says my password is incorrect although i know my password is correct as successfully updated 2 iphones and connected to same wifi network

    I had the same problem. I reset my network settings as iOS 8 on my iPad 3 seemed a bit slow. When I tried to reconnect to the wifi the correct password was not accepted immediately.
    after retrying several times it did manage to join the network. The only observation I had was that I had a weak signal and an iPhone next to me at the time.
    make sure you are close to the wifi signal away from any other wifi devices.

    Call Apple anyway. If the device was ever registered with then they will have the serial # on file and can look you up by other info such as your name or phone number.
    To re-enable an iPad any computer with iTunes should work. However, if your data was not backed up to iCloud you will not be able to access it until you get back to your home computer.

  • TS1398 I tried all solution but still i am unable to connect to my wifi. It started yesterday when my ipad cant connect to wifi.

    I tried all solution but still i am unable to connect to my wifi. It started yesterday when my ipad cant connect to wifi.

    It's hard to provide help when your question starts out with, "I tried all solutions" however here is some troubleshooting advice.
    If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
    First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
    If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
    If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
    If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

  • HT204023 Why cant my ipad auto-connect to my phone hotspot?

    Why cant my ipad auto-connect to my hotspot? Whenever I turn my HS on I always have to go into my wifi settings on my ipad and manually connect. Its kind of a  pain to always have to do this.

    That seems to be a hot topic question which no one seems to have an answer to, including Apple. I too have this problem. I just signed up for hotspot this past weekend and am already regretting it and thinking about cancelling it. Not worth the hassle. One can only hope Apple with actually listen to it's users and fix the problem with a future update. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
    It SHOULD reconnect automatically after the initial set-up, just like the wifi.
    Not a very smart smartphone if you ask me.
