The method described above is too complex.
I found a more easy way to solve the Modern app crash problem.
That is to download the legacy driver 296.10 here

Unfortunately, 296.10 and 19x don't solve all problems on Windows 8:

Grey wifi and bluetooth

I have an old iPod that my friend gave me and I thing the wifi and bluetooth antenna is broken because in the setting they are both greyed out and I can't click them. If I take it in to an apple store can they fix it or replace it or what?

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:

IOS 8.1.2 breaks Wifi and Bluetooth on iPhone 4s

Since I upgraded my iPhone 4s to IOS 8.1.2, i am unable to use wifi or bluetooth.
My wifi button is greyed out and I cannot turn it on.
Bluetooth will just display a spinning wheel when i turn it on.
I have tried resetting network settings twice, multiple re-boots/re-sets. Toggling Airplane mode. Turning off iCloud. All to no avail.
Just to be clear, this is not an intermittent issue or a slowdown or anything like that.
IOS 8.1.2 has completely disabled wifi and bluetooth.
Anyone else having these problems or got a resolution?

Yes, but first time in the several years to have a problem. Using Outlook on Mac with MS Exchange Server. I have Exchange set up on both iPhone and iPad. Talked to IT and they are making sure MS Exchange Server is fully updated tonight.

How can i fix my wifi and bluetooth issues in yosemite?

Hi, after upgrading to Yosemite I've noticed that my bluetooth trackpad (Logitech t651) and wifi connection are having serious conflicts which result in sluggish trackpad response or occasional wifi connection drops.
I would have some occasional sluggishness with my trackpad in Mavericks but it would never lead to dropping of my wifi connection. Here is a little more about my configuration, my wifi connection is 2.4ghz, I have read that upgrading to 5GHZ would solve this problem but this would of course require me to purchase a new router which I would like to avoid. I have noticed that if i turn off my wifi, my trackpad is 100% smooth and responsive so the two issues are definitely connected. Does anyone have solution to fix this problem that doesn't include changing the wifi broadcast channel (which I've already tried), switching to 5GHZ, or utilizing an ethernet connection? Thanks

I think I'm having a similar problem, my wifi disconnects when a bluetooth device is connected to the MBA.
I have a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012) with WiFi and Apple Trackpad. I'm unable to use the trackpad(bluetooth) and wifi at the same time. If I turn off the trackpad then the wifi works fine and if I shutoff the wifi then the trackpad works fine. This configuration was working fine prior to upgrading to Yosemite.
I experienced the same problem at home and at the office.
Additional test:
I turned off the bluetooth trackpad and connected my bluetooth headphones to the MBA. The wifi disconnected as soon as I paired the headphones with the MBA.
I have had no problems with the MBA's keyboard or integrated trackpad.

How to fix continued crashes and hangs of iPhone, iTunes and iPhoto.

PROBLEM
I started to suffer these immediate problems when getting iPhone:
1. When the iPhone is connected to the computer, iTunes would hang, and also iPhoto would hang.
2. Both would need to be restarted from the opt-apple-esc key option.
3. When iTunes was re-started, it would not "see" the iPhone, or even if it "saw" the iPhone, it would refuse to sync. This refusal was either from (a) an error reporting a connection error, or (b) the process of synch would hang.
4. iPhoto about 1/2 of the time would not properly import photos.
DIAGNOSIS
After trial and error, I came to the following conclusions:
a/ Part of the problem involved the USB connector on my laptop. It was not connecting 100%, so by jiggling it and making sure it was clean, the connection errors started to decrease some, (but did not go away).
b/ By pulling up the Process Monitor, I noticed that the CPU was becoming overloaded each time the iTunes and iPhoto applications crashed. (I have an older machine, a PowerBook g4 17" with 1GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM.
HOW TO FIX PROBLEM
The following worked for me:
1/ For iPhoto, change the settings so that it does NOT automatically launch when the iPhone is plugged in. This is done with iPhoto>Preferences>General: "Connection Camera Opens" > No Application. You can still use iPhoto with your iPhone, but it will not automatically launch when the iPhone is plugged in. This will stop the hanging. [at least it did for me]
2/ For iTunes, disable the option to "sync when plugged in" iTunes>Preferences>Syncing> check the box "disable automatic syncing".
The effect of these actions is to disable the complex chain of events that occurs when the iPhone is plugged in. I believe my CPU just can not handle them. So once they are disabled, there is no problem doing this manually. iPhoto does not launch, even if you have not photographs to upload, and iTunes does not try to launch and sync all in one giant transaction. You simply click the "sync" button when you wish to sync.
My suggestion is that if you have an older mac, check to see if the CPU is getting overwhelmed. If it is, then these setting might help you. For me, after they were put in place, I've not had quite as many problems. About 1/2 the time, iTunes will not sync, but this is easily fixed by simply quitting and restarting iTunes. That seems to work most of the time.

- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT6154 iOS 7 and iPhone 4S - I lost my WiFi and Bluetooth capabilities last September with the new OS, and I THOUGHT it was actually fixed this morning with the latest release - my WiFi AND Bluetooth actually worked....for about 5 minutes, but no longer

I thought this latest OS release had fixed my WiFi and Bluetooth problem, but I was excited for only a minute! I actually was able to connect to my WiFi at home and paired my Bluetooth to my car - but after a few minutes, the Bluetooth automatically turned off and the WiFi no longer worked. Is there a FIX to this??? I know it's the OS that disabled them and I'm not paying $500 for a new phone when my upgrade is not availbe for another six months!!!!

My iPhone 4S did once again did lose it's wifi connection after running perfectly for about 8 weeks.
I was streaming Pandora Radio via bluetooth connection at the time, ( not sure if that has anything to do with why the wifi dropped out again, but I thought I'd mention it anyway)
But!.... I was able to get everything up and running perfectly again by simply grabing my girlfriend's hair dyer heated it up again for about 5 - 7 minutes ( the over heated message even appeared this time) then powered it off, warped it in a plastic bag, stuck it back in the freezer for 15 minutes, took it out of the freezer, powered it back on, and Abracadabra it works perfectly again!!!
Phone has been running perfectly AGAIN for about a week now.
One strange thing this time after fixing it for a second time is that the the little WiFi symbol no longer shows at the top of the screen, but the wifi connection and everything IS RUNNING PERFECTLY!
If all I've got to do once in a while, is spend about 20 minutes with a hairdryer and a freezer to keep my iPhone 4S running perfectly.....well I'm as happy as a pig in s*** :-)
And please no comments about how I have now voided my apple support etc. I never had any to begin with (it's a 2nd hand phone and I really couldn't care less about warranty issues etc etc etc..... The phone works, and that's all that matters to me!

Lost the ability to connect to both WiFi and Bluetooth on my iPhone 4S. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Lost the ability to connect to both WiFi and Bluetooth on my iPhone 4S. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem?

Have you followed http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 ?
Also try settings>general>reset>reset all settings
If you have followed that article and restored your phone and set it up as new and you're still having that issue you may call and explain you followed the article and are still having the problem. Most likely they will either set up a replacement for you. If they ask you to set up the one time phone support agreement, and they assist you with a restore again, they won't bill you if they end up having to repair it.

HT1430 my wifi and bluetooth is grey, cant get it on. I restarted, reset, and went to itunes to reset. None of these options are fixing the problem??

my wifi and bluetooth setting are greyed out, cant turn on, i reset, restarted, and went to itunes, nothing works??

I did some hunting and have found that your Apple ID needs to be registered in the country where you first downloaded the app (whichever ones are giving you trouble)
I needed to change my region back to the uk and now my apps are downloading. Thank goodness!!
I think I read somewhere that apple had changed a setting or something(?) when updating their ts&cs.
I hope this helps people!!
I also had deleted my apps but re installed them when I connected to my computer.

TS1559 still no solution for greyed out wifi and bluetooth - what to do? been messing around with it for weeks and now discover I'm just outside of warranty period? WHAT?

I am in such a predicament - phone not been quite right since the 6.1 update and I was tolerating the inconvenience of switching off and on etc etc for the past couple of months and now the wifi and bluetooth are totally greyed out all the time - did every restore possible including back to factory settings - still no luck - please don't tell me that trying all the solutions over the past 2 months that temporarily worked for a few days at a time will now mean I have timed myself out of the 1 year warranty? arghhhhh (I can't believe that such an issue will create the response 'oh well, your problem - best just buy another one' ???)
I can't just drop everything and drive to the apple store and wait for hours every time there's a 'glitch' otherwise I may as well move nextdoor to the mall. They tell you to try and solve it yourself first - which I did - and now it's not responding to anything I try, will I be told - 'too late, out of warranty'???
I see theres an update for the iphone 5 that fixes wifi bugs - what about us 4s owners? even my 3 year old 3gs is still working on wifi (haven't dared to update it!) so don't start telling me to expect that the iphone will only last 13 months - NOT AT $600 a piece
This is madness and driving me crazy
Please has anyone had any luck fixing this problem???

well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!

Same exact problem, and the linked how-to repair, does not fix the problem.
Wifi is grayed out, iphone 4s, iOS 8.1.1 update (11/29,14) just killed the wifi dead. iOS 8 updates killed Bluetooth....
I just don't understand this at all....

Hello, lustige luka.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The Personal Hotspot feature using USB should be as simple as connecting the device to your Mac via the USB cable when Hotspot is enabled. Here is some more information regarding this feature and an article that will provide some troubleshooting steps if you are experiencing an issue.
