did all the resets and still wifi connects and disconnects , plz help
I upgraded Apple TV late last week. Last weekend I rented a couple of movies from Apple TV. I watched one immediately, and was going to watch the other one the next day. On Sunday I opened up Apple TV to watch the film, and..... NOTHING THERE. I could see 'purchased movies', 'top movies', etc., at the top of the bar, but no mention of rentals. Even the film I'd watched (which obviously you can see for 48 hours) had disappeared into a black hole in Apple TV. I have been charged for these movie, and sent in a complaint.
My airplay seemed to be fine, but.... last night, my computer was not seeing an Apple TV or showing an airplay sing, so I restarted and the Apple TV and airplay sign returned. If I chose to watch the film on the computer it started up immediately, if I chose airplay, I got the first image of the film and the loading sign going on and on (round and round) forever. The film never started. I restarted my Apple TV, the same. I restarted the computer, the same. I tried with various programmes and no go.
iMore has the following suggestion. I am not sure if this will help. It sounds a PIA, but if I can't get airplay to work, I might try it: http://www.imore.com/how-restore-2nd-or-3rd-generation-apple-tv-back-factory-set tings-itunes

im trying to connect my ipad to my connection at home and its taking the password but still wont connect and doesnt tell me why?? .i even tried to reset network settings
Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, my guess is that it's a router issue. You'll need to get administrative access to the router and determine if it has a firewall. If one is present, turn it off and test the iPad. If that solves the problem, don't leave it that way. Turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test again. Repeat as required.
For what it's worth, a router firewall can stop iPad communication without affecting computer communication. I do not understand why the difference.
Edit...
I just saw the post from Diavonex. An off/on is certainly worth a shot. Leave it off for ten seconds. -

ITS ALMOST BEEN A WHOLE MNTH I HAV TRIED EVERYTHING I DID ALL THE RESETS AND RESTORE YOU CAN DO. CAN ANYBODY TELL ME HOW TO FIX MY PROBLEM OR HAVE ANY OTHER SUGGESTION I WOULD BE ABLE TO DO ON MY PHONE OR HAVE I PRETTY MUCH TRIED EVERYTHING THAT I CAN DO AND NOW NEED TO TAKE IT UP TO AN APPLE REP AT THE APPLE STORE?
There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it. -
I turned my iphone 4s on this morning.. texts were working fine until i got home. I did all the resets, someone please help.
I have the same problem. Apple needs to sort itself out. How they can release such bug ridden upgrades it astounds me for a business of this size. I now can't sync anything since upgrading, and all my photo's and contacts have been deleted.
I use my iphone 5 for business so now I have a mobile device with no contacts and no answer from Apple to the problem. This is so not cool.
Apple needs to notify their customers of these MAJOR issues with 6.1 or retract the update.
Seriously!!! -
My phone randomly shut off. When I turned it back on it said it needed to restore, to plug it into itunes. When I did, and tried to restore it, it failed with a code 21. I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all that the steps told me to, I've updated everything in my computer. I don't know what else to do. My phone will just show the apple sign and the itunes plug in sign.
Hey Carolefromthelou,
The following link will provide steps on how to best remove all traces of iTunes from your PC and then reinstall it:

All of a sudden my ipad will not connect to our home wireless. I have reset the wireless settings, turned my ipad off and back on, turned off wireless and back on, basically have done all of the fixes suggested and still I cannot connect. My daughter cannot connect her iPod either, but my husbands laptop can and is connected to our wireless. The wireless is working and until two days ago I had no problems connecting.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Hias anyone had their iphone 4 completely die on them? Mine won't switch on, I have tried using the power key with the home key, tried connecting it via usb cable to itunes, tried new battery- nothing has worked. The phone is just 2 yrs old this month, and I haven't dropped it or anything. I have never had a phone break on me before in almost 20 yrs of having mobile phones- I've had to resort to using a 7 yr old Nokia, which I used to love but it's not the same as my iphone!!
If you have attempted the reset, which is holding the home button and sleep/wake button, was it still connected to the computer? Have you tried to do that when not connected. You stated it never came on, how long did you hold the buttons together? If you cannot get it to connect to iTunes then you would not be able to restore the device. You can see if you can put the device into Recovery Mode by following the instructions in this support document. If that does not work, then you are correct, make an appointment at the Apple Store. If you can't update or restore your iOS device

my computer crashed and i lost all of my songs. i got some of them back but i can't get some others back. i have these awsome new songs i want on my ipod but i can't sync becuase that will delete all of the other song that i clould not recover from my i pod. how do i sync the two awsome songs on to my i pod with out syncing anything else and keeping all of the non recoverable songs on my ipod? someone PLZ HELP
Unlikely to be possible.
The iPhone/iPod Touch is designed to only sync to one computer at a time.
What you are attempting to do is sync to a 2nd computer, even though it is likely the exact same computer.
The only option that might be possible is using the manually manage music on this device option. -

Recently i unchecked the box i tune wifi sync and try to connect my i phone using the usb cable provided. Now my macbook cant detect my phone, help!! I cant sync my phone anymore....
The update did not do anything.
AT&T cannot and will not do anything, they do not provide support for iPhones, Apple does.
The issue is not with the iPhone or iOS if you've reset network settings and tried forgetting the Wi-Fi Network, it is specific to the network.
Check the settings on the router, try disabling the security settings first... that will clarify the issue is not with the device but rather the Network. -
I did everything recommended on apple store support site and still cannot connect to the network with my new iphone 5 but my co-workers and students (I work for the university) can keep connectivity all the time. I am very unhappy with my new phone
Be patient, Apple is coming out with a update soon, its been reported that they have sent the update to the carriers to test, which means it will be soon. And is suppose to address this issue.
