Connecting iPhone to Wifi
I have an old iPhone 3G and I reset the entire phone. Now every time I try to connect to wifi it says it is unable to join the network. Why is this?
Hi,
If you have reset the entire phone it probably does not have your password saved for automatic connection.
You will have to go to FORGET THIS NETWORK and start from scratch with name of network and the password.
Hope this helps and a Happy Christmas from England,
Alan

Slow start up of iTunes 10.6 on Windows 7 & Network issues connecting iPhone via WiFi
Ever since I updated to iTunes 10.6 and iOS 5.1 both my computer don't want to open iTunes quickly and my Phone doesn't get noticed on iTunes via WiFi on my network. When I go to start iTunes from the icon on my desktop it doesn't pop up on screen right away like it did on the version before 10.6 and on iOS 5.0.1 my phone would sync and connect on to iTunes to update apps just fine now all that has changed. Doesn't want to connect to update apps on my network via WiFi and I have tried a few different things to see if I could correct the issue but nothing has worked. I tried what another person posted to try and it did not work, I also uninstalled, rebooted computer and reinstalled iTunes but that did not work either. Nothing I have tried seems to work, it must be a Apple glitch in the software for Windows 7 to have iTunes 10.6 and iOS 5.1 not to work properly like it should as it once did without fail. Before on the versions before this everything worked just fine no issues. Apple get with the program and fix these issues we are having please. Thanks and hope they get it fixed and straightened out quick!!!
Well, here is the results of my Diagnostic Test of the phone when plugged into the computer. Maybe with this someone would be able to see something that might need looking into, if so please let me know. Thanks so much in advance. I have not tried going back to a older version of iTunes as I am just gonna wait and see if Apple can correct it, hopefully they can. It seems as if on update they left something out to make iTunes, and Syncing not working properly.

TS1538 Problem connecting iPhone via wifi to iTunes
Since upgrading to iOS6 and the new iTunes software, I have trouble connecting my iPhone 4s to iTunes via wifi. I must shut down the iPhone and restart it to connect via wifi to iTunes. But this works only once, the process must be repeated each time. Does anyone else have this issue? Is there a resolution?
Try a different USB port or sync cable.
Close and restart iTunes on the PC.
Restart the PC. -
Question connecting iphone 4s wifi using SSID and WEP where do I
Question, I am trying to connect my iphone 4s to a wireless router using SSID and WEP. I have entered the MAC Address on the phone into the Router's Security list.
I think that I also need to enter a code or passphrase on to the phone as well.
Does anyone know how this is done and where do I do it?
Thank you in advance.Check the wireless security option of your Wi-Fi router:
If you are using WEP security and have multiple WEP keys on your Wi-Fi router, try configuring your Wi-Fi router to use only a single WEP key in key index 1.
Consider using WPA or WPA2 instead. WPA and WPA2 encryption protocols are newer, more effective security options for wireless networks than the older WEP protocol. -
I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?
Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
My iphone wont let me connect to my wifi it just keeps saying 'activation server is temporarily unavailable' what do i do?
Ask him. In any case, if it was jailbroken, you cannot get help here for jailbroken phones. Sorry.

My iPhone is from the US and I've had it for nearly two years. I'm with optus. I know that this is not allowed to be discussed but my phone was bought jailbroken. Neither my father nor I had any idea what this meant at the time and would not have bought it if we did know. My wifi connectivity worked fine up until a month ago when it cut out for no reason at all. Since then it cannot connect to any wifi sources. Also, my phone has recently been cutting out of service 1-2 times everyday. I understand that this may due to the fact that my phone is jailbroken. However is there anyway I could unjailbreak my phone? I'm not sure if it is factory unlocked because the iPhone wasn't bought from Apple even though it is legit. So is there really anything I could do to fix my phone? It's running on IOS 4.0.1.
Please help me. I'm fifteen and I really have no idea what to do!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!In settings>general> cellular do you have it turned ON?

I now have a useless $700 phone. Updated iTunes to latest version (and can't get it to revert back to an earlier version), updated iPhone (iPhone5) to iOS 7 and now it won't talk to iTunes, nor will it connect to my WiFi. What should I try now?
If it won't talk at all to iTunes, you can hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds, it will power off, this is ok, then let go of the power button while holding the home button until iTunes sees it as a device in recovery mode. You can try to reinstall iOS7 and then restore.

ive just moved out and have just been connected to talk talk broadband today. Both my ipad mini and iphone are saying they are connected to wifi but only my iphone will connect to online services where my ipad mini won't. But if i disconnect my iphone from wifi then my ipad will work online and then when trying to connect my iphone back to wifi that won't work with online services. is this because they are both using the same apple account? though when i was living at home my mum had sky router and i was able to connect both devices with no problem. is there anyway of connecting both devices so they work online at the same time??
There is absolutely no reason why they should not bothe be able to connect to your WiFi network. The easiest place to start would be to reboot your router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again. I would also restart both the iPad and the iPhone.

Hello all, I could use some help with my iPhone 4, I hope this is the best place to ask!
The Problem:
I want to do a full backup of my iphone to either itunes or to icloud. Unfortunately the iphone got wet and isn’t working properly. The phone turns on and still works, but the touch screen no longer works. I have a passcode lock on the phone so iTunes will not allow me to backup it up until I type in the passcode (which I cannot physically do). WiFi had been turned off before it got wet so it won’t connect to any known WiFi networks either to backup automatically to iCloud.
What happened:
I had been travelling for 6 months and went tubing on a river with my iphone in a dry bag. Unfortunately the dry bag failed and filled with water ruining my iphone.
What I’d like to do:
It’s an old phone and I was planning on buying a new iPhone anyway. I would love to do a full backup to either iCloud or to my computer so when I get a new iPhone I don’t lose anything. I’ve already connected it to my PC and downloaded all the photos and videos off the phone so at least I haven’t lost that, but I would like to be able to recover all the text messages, WhatsApp messages and notes I had created during my 6 months of travel.
The last time it was backed up to my pc or to icloud was in April, so there are 6 months worth of very meaningful data I would love to keep to remind me of my travels!
Is there anyway to force a full backup of the iPhone without typing in my passcode lock or is there anyway to force it to connect to a WiFi network so the phone can backup to iCloud??
iTunes recognizes the phone just now and I tried upgrading the phone to iOS7 in the hopes that it would first backup and then upgrade. Unfortunately all that happened is the phone upgraded to iOS7, but it didn’t backup to iTunes. Now the phone is stuck at the iOS7 welcome screen and I can’t do anything else with it.
Any ideas or tips would be welcome!
NOTE: This is NOT a jailbroken iPhone.If there is no other way around this, is there anyway to completely wipe the phone then??
The Apple store agreed to give me a new iPhone 4 as a warranty replacement for $150 (I travel a lot and I have a factory unlocked phone, so this is still worth it for me). But before I trade it in, I would like to make sure all my data is backed up on the device first.
When I try and restore the phone now on iTunes, it says I have to turn off Find My iPhone on the phone first before I can restore it. Now since I can't use the screen I can't really do that.
So how do I completely wipe the iPhone???
Thanks! -
How can I delete my old Laptop from my iPhone (iTunes Wifi Sync) and connect it to my new Laptop
HI;
I have an iPhone 4S Factory Unlocked, up to date (iOS 6.0.1). I connect it to my Laptop named "The Love" via USB and opend iTunes and checked Sync over Wifi to enable this feature. Everything works great.
After a couple months I sold my Laptop and bought a new Laptop named "Raid", I did the smae steeps, connect it to my new Laptop via USB and opend iTunes and I checked Syn over Wifi to enable this feature and hit Apply, also I did the sync via USB cable and it works fine.
Now I want to sync via wifi, so I went to General --> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync --> here my iPhone still showing "Sync will resume when "The Love-PC" is available", Okay I sold it!! What I will do! I stock! does this mean I will need to find my old Laptop and buy it back????!!!!
I tried to do those steeps over and over, same result, my iPhone stock with the my old Laptop, It seems my iPhone liked my "The Love" Laptop
My question is:
How do I delete this setting? and connect it to my new Laptop?
All the best;Well " even if I plugged it via usb" I meant that I did all the spteps, connect my iPhone via USB, Open iTunes, Check on Sync this device via WiFi, click on Sync, Unplug the iPhone.
Again I DO NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE USB OR SYNC MY IPHONE THROUGH ITUNES VIA USB
I HAVE AN ISSUE TO SYNC MY IPHONE VIA WIFI (WIRELESSLY), THAT IS MEAN SYNC MY IPHONE WITH ITUNES WITHOUT USING USB CABLE.

Question about personal hotspot. I know I can share GSM / 3G but I would like to know if my iPhone is connected to a wifi can I also share that wifi collection, through personal hotspot? And if so can it be through wifi or does it have to be Bluetooth or USB?
Sounds like an odd question but my phone will connect to BT Openzone so I want to share that with my iPad via personal hotspot. I could use 3G but then it comes off my data allowance and I don't want to have to buy a separate SIM for my iPad if I can avoid it. I can swap my sim from my phone, but that's a pain!
Thanks
LukeNo, unfortunately Personal Hotspot will only use your 3G plan.

Since updating my iphone 4s to the most recent update it will no longer connect to the wifi at work, where I am not a network administrator and do not have privliges to reset passwords and turn the routers on and off. Any other suggestions for re-connecting? I have never had a problem before and can still connect to other networks i am a part of...
Try Resetting your iPad: Hold down the sleep and home buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
