Get message "cannot join network or incorrect password
Neew Iphone 4 does not connect to my secured wifi network. I am using the weakest WEP security. All my other devices, including my old Iphone and laptop connect without problems. I get theses messages, "unable to join *********network" or, "incorrect password". I see from postings that this is a common problem.
Thanks for any help.

I have found the real problem, but not the solution.
In my router I only give access to computers on an access list. Of course the IPAD is not yet there. I have to enter the MAC address of the IPAD. But where do I find that MAC address?

I cannot update various games/apps on my ipad. When I attempt to update using my correct Apple ID and password, I get message "cannot connect to Itune store".
How to fix?Hello, Olliegirl1.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
When experiencing issues connecting to the iTunes store on an iOS device, here are the troubleshooting steps that I would recommend going through.
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

I am trying to download itunes to windows 7 and keep getting the error message "cannot access network location $APPDATA%\." I have contacted an Apple advisor and was not able to resolve the problem. What to do?
Since this a problem pertaining to the iTunes application, you might have better luck posting this in the iTunes forum.

I am trying to change country to US for iTunes on my iPad. After I select US in account setting and press NEXT I get message: "Cannot connect to iTunes" and then "The iTunes Store could not process your request. Please true again later". Help please.
downloaded the updated iTunes and that did nothing. I then went through the form about $ very VERY carefully and discovered one field left blank. Once that was filled in, everything worked and I now have my free app.

Can't send mail, get message: the smtp server rejected the password. I tried lock and unlock keychain. I tried unlock captcha. Gmail works okay, it is Mail that does not. Help!!
Hi
You need to check with your ISP whether or not the send mail server (SMTP) requires a password. Some do, but many do not. When you know the correct password to send mail, then you need to tell Mail as follows:
Mail menu > Preferences > Accounts > Select the account
Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) combo box, and select Edit SMTP Server List...
In the Account Information tab put the server name
In the Advanced Tab, set up the authentication information from your ISP.
Good luck

Hi StuNYC,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.
