How can I get my wifi to turn on. It remains greyed out

How do I get my wifi to turn on? It remains greyed out. I have tried Network reset. Can anybody help please?

Hello POLLYMER,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your Wi-Fi option on an iPhone 4S is greyed out. The following article explains this issue and potential resolution:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
1. Verify that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
2. Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings
3. Ensure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
4. If your issue is still unresolved, perform a software restore in iTunes.
If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How can i get my wifi to turn on when it's greyed out?

My iPhone has been playing up since the iOS5.1.1 update, my wifi has greyed out and wont let me turn my wifi on or off, i updated to iOS6 thinking it will cure it and its exactly the same, anybody know what to do?

You could be having a problem with the radio for WiFi. I'd suggest that you start by rebooting the phone.
Hold both the SLEEP button for about 5 seconds until a red SWIPE TO SHUT DOWN comes up. Go ahead and do so. After it powers off, wait about 5 seconds then hold the SLEEP button again to power on the phone.
If this doesn't help I would recommend you make an appointment with a Genius at your local Apple store.
If this helped at all please consider marking the problem solved or "like" my posts so that I may get more points for my profile.
Thank you,

Slow, intermittent. Sometimes bootable sometime not. Odd behavior.
Sounds to me like a classic case of your HD failing.
Your SMART status may still show verified, with no errors on the Apple Hardware Test, Disk Utility shows no problems on Disk Repair- this is of no help.
I trust you have a good back-up and a bootable clone.

Not all carriers allow that to be set using preferences in the phone. Contact your carrier.

How can I get roaming wifi on my ipad

How can I get my ipad to connect to wifi networks automatically when I'm out and about without having to put in a password to connect

That's not possible. Most wifi networks you can find are private and as such require a password to connect to them.
There's no such thing as roaming wifi.
If you need Internet you need to find a free wifi network, like those in coffee shops or libraries, you can use and even then some of those still require a password the first time you connect.
After the first connection the iPad will remember the network and its password, so it will attempt to connect automatically the next time it finds that particular network.

How can I get my 2010 macbook pro to send signal out through the mini display port?

First, what you said is contradictory. You say "can't get a video signal", then say"the Mac wallpaper is broadcast, the mouse pointer is visible". "No video signal" means an absolutely black,blank screen. It sounds like you have plenty of signal.
I am supposing what you are seeing is actually a blank desktop, which is to be expected if your settings are such that you are extending the desktop, instead of mirroring it.
Within the preference panes is a setting that allows you to change this. Open System Preferences, click Displays, and then click Arrangement. You will see that you are extending the desktop. Change that setting.

How can i get my wife set up in iTunes - Same computer

Hi guys
I'm trying to figure out the best way to get my wife set up using her own iTunes accounts.
She has an iPhone and iPad but her laptop is pretty rubbish so i set up a user account on my MBA for her. I use iTunes match under my account, under hers she just has a conventional iTunes Apple ID. As soon as we sign in it warns us any downloaded past purchases will prevent the other Apple ID associated with that computer from working for 90 days. I've read about this and understand there is nothing we can do.
But can we still use her own iTunes? How about if we sign out of her Apple ID in her iTunes. If she syncs her devices can she get her music on that way without these 90 day warnings? Or will we have to transfer purchases again? Will she be able to import CD's and sync to her devices or do we face the same problem?
This is pretty frustrating and it ***** no being able to have her own iTunes account on my computer. If the above works with syncing from device to computer, can you purchase everything on her devices and transfer from them?
Thanks.

I do have a seperate account for her on the OS - I still get the 1 Apple ID per device warning (we will lock you out for 90 days message).
We are in her own OS account in her own iTunes library. I wondered if i never sign in there, would we be able to manage her music on the same laptop i use for mine?
We will have to transfer purchases when syncing with her devices, but will this give us the same error about the 1 Apple ID per device?
If so that would be really bad, only way to do it is buy her a new laptop. Not good!

TS3988 Hi both myself and my wife are on the same account so we receive each others contacts and I messages. How can I get my wife a separate I'D but keep her on the account so she can still purchase items on the account thanks Gary Eveling

Hi. Both myself and my wife are on the same account meaning same credit card. The problem with this is we both receive each others contacts and see each others I messages.
How can my wife have a different name so we are separate on such things as contacts and I message but she can still purchase items on the account.
Many thanks
Gary Eveling

You entered your wife's seperate AppleID? Check you can login with the same AppleID here: http://appleid.apple.com/ on a computer.
Some of the photos in that link apply to setting up iCloud on a device from new, not when setting it up later. It won't look the same (the dark gray background) for you as you're setting it up now.

How can I get a list of songs in iTunes to print out?

I am trying to make a list of all the songs I have in my iTunes. How can I do that?

There is a print option on the file menu, one of the options is to print a song list - either a playlist or the library.
Alternatively there is Export... on the file menu, you can export a text file which can be loaded into a spreadsheet for formatting.

How can I access the Settings, Accounts section when it is greyed out?

I have successfully upgraded 4S to iOs7. When I go to check my email, I continually get the message that I need to read the new iCloud terms. When I click ok I am directed to the Settings / Mail, Contacts, Calendars page. The Accounts section is greyed out. I can't click on iCloud (to read the terms or to sign out to sign in with my new Apple ID) or any of the Accounts. The Mail and lower sections of Mail, Contacts, Calendars is accessible. On the Settings page, iCloud, FaceTime, Twitter/Facebook/Flickr/Vimeo are all greyed out as well.

How can I get my Wifi to work again on iphone?

Ever since I updated my IOS, I have had trouble with my Wifi. I can connect at home where the password is stored and there is no issue. When I go to work, I cannot connect. My work has a public Wifi where every day that you sign on and try to go to a webpage, it redirects you to the company site where you need to click a button to approve the Wifi terms of service. This worked on my iphone for months and now does not work ever. It says that it connects to "public," says that there is a strong connection, but it never redirects me to that approval page anymore, so I can't ever actually use the Wifi even though I am connected. This is incredibly frustrating, and I'm about to get rid of the phone. I never had this issue with my Droid (among other irritating issues.) I have tried numerous things on numerous occassions including rebooting the phone, turning Wifi off and on and off and on, changing the proxy settings, forgetting the network, resetting the network settings completely, trying to sign on to different websites in hopes that one would redirect to the approval page...nothing works.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there any way to go back to an older IOS that allowed my Wifi to work? PLEASE HELP!!!!

Upgrade to a Samsung Galaxy since your iPhone, like mine, is a nice-looking POS that doesn't do what it is purported to do within 16 months of purchase. My upgrade cannot get here soon enough.

How can I get my iPad to turn on?

Ipad 3 about 2 years old. Battery ran low a couple of days ago and now it won't turn on despite supposedly being charged.
When usb'd into my computer it occasionally must flciker into life because it asks me if I want to import my photos. If I press cancel that is the end of it. If I press import (or upload?) it says I can't becasuse the ipad is locked.
I've tried all theusual things like pressing home button and the other button together. No response at all.
Is there a way of unlocking it somehow from my laptop?
Any help appreciated!

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (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 iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
