HT1595 When the phone is charging, wifi can't use

first, I can  connect to wifi.then I take my iPhone4s to charging .after a while ,I want to play iPhone4s again,I found it can't connect wifi.
I restart iPhone4s and it can connect to wifi.
this is the second time it happen.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I doubt it's anything to do with charging and more likely to be network related.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • I use a third-party charger (Sharper Image) for my iPhone 4S. Before today, it worked fine, but it hasn't been working lately. I've gotten lucky sometimes when the phone would charge, but when I take the charger out and stick it back in, it won't charge.

    Any tips on how to fix this? I don't think my phone is the problem; it's something in the charger. I just don't know what?

    Yup - that would work as a test. What you want to do is to isolate the problem, so if you can test that cable with a different device, that would be the ticket.
    Just an aside....I have found that even my authorized Apple USB cable that I use normally for my iPad, is not always being recognized by my iPhone since I downloaded iOS 7. If I remove it and reconnect it, after one or two tries, it does recognize it. I know the cable is fine, because as soon as I get done with the phone, I plug it into my iPad (running iOS 5 - it's an iPad 1....) and it, without fail, connects.
    So, I think with iOS 7, the connection logic is a bit more sensitive and sometimes is just not making the connection when it should. I am certain that it is iOS7 because the issue very clearly started occurring after I upgraded. It's a bit annoying, but eventually it always works, so just a bit of a nuisance. Just wanted to share that with you in case a couple or three tries might get it to connect.... (this also is happening with my Bose speaker that I dock my iPhone on to play music during the day. Again, I am certain it started happening after iOS 7, so the two seem to be connected to me....)

  • Iphone alarm doesn't work when the phone is charging but works fine when it is not plugged in, any reason for this?

    Recently my alarm hasn't been going off on my phone when it is plugged into the charger. This is a problem as i have work most mornings and have been late. When it is not plugged in the alarm works. I know it would mae sense to charge it before i go to sleep, take it off the charger, set the alarm then wake up but was just wondering if there was any reason why I might be experiencing this issue?
    Cheers

    This is something peculiar, normally that doesn't work that way
    when did this happen? if it just happened, then something probably went wrong with either the software or the hardware
    do charge the proper way, and see if it happens again
    or try completely draining the battery, and charge it to 100% and see if its gonna solve the issue with the alarm

  • If my i'm on the phone to my wife who is using a 3gs and she recieves an sms should i be able to hear the alert?

    Hi all odd question I know, I was on the phone talking to my wife earlier who uses a 3gs pretty sure that I heard her text alert whilst we were talking, is this possible?

    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.
    StraightTalk is not a supported carrier... not all features may work.

  • Why does my iMac make a buzzing noise any time my iPhone 5 is near it, even when the phone is on wifi?

    It reminds me of back in the day when your computer speakers would get interference whenever your cell phone is near it, but this is just a constant buzzing coming from my iMac whenever i have my iPhone 5 near it (e.g. sitting on the table next to the iMac when it's plugged in). My iPhone 4 and my last few phones before that never did that. I thought it might have been the LTE signal causing it, but it does it when it's on wifi as well.
    The sound is louder if I have messenger running for some reason. It's odd as ****! If anyone has any ideas, please let me know!

    I forgot to add, it's a Verizon phone so it's CDMA. It used to be only GSM phones that did this.

  • After updating to iOS7, i can't play youtube songs while the phone is charging using car usb adapter

    I have a iphone 4S and updated to iOS7. After update i am not able to play songs in my car using youtube when the phone was plugged into usb power. The way i play youtube songs (that's how i listen to songs in the car) from my iphone is, i have AUX cable that connects the iphone to AUX port in my car music system. When the phone is put into chaging mode using the USB cable in my car, it start assuming i am connected to apple TV and everything goes blank. If taken out of charging it works as expected.
    Now how it worked befoe iOS7? Before everytime i put the phone into charging in the car in-built USB port, after a few minutes a message pops up in the phone "This accessory is not supported ..." I press "OK" and after that playing songs from youtube is business as usual. If i connect the AUX cable before i see this pops up message and start playing songs, it assumes connecting to apple tv and songs would never play.
    With iOS7, i waited 2 hours and still have not seen the pop up message "This accessory is not supported ..." and playing using AUX cable all the aasuming connected to apple TV. Can some one please help to resolve the issue ??
    Thanks.

    wooh-ho ! I have upgraded iOS 7.0.3 yesteray, plugged the device to my car USB charger while going home from work... guess what to my surprise it popped up the message "This accessory is not supported ..." in a few minutes exactly as it used to be before iOS7. However i did not play any online music since connection was poort is disrupted in my area yesterday. I am sure it will play music while on charge. Many thanks to apple engineering team. They definitely read the forum and picked my issue to address. Great job. Kudos !   
    I was almost thought of dropping the phone since it became useless in the car i drive. Now maybe i will upgrade to 5S in couple weeks!

  • I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and now I can't keep the wifi connection to stay on. I have to keep entering my wifi password when the phone goes to sleep. How do I keep the wifi connection when I wake up the phone?

    I just updated my iphone 4 to ios6 and I can't keep the wifi connection when the phone goes to sleep. I need to keep entering my wifi password when I wake up the phone. How do I keep the wifi on each time I walk into my house without reentering my password?

    What? Do you work for Apple?
    I have been on the phone for Apple since 5:30 Eastern Time today. We are still on the phone with them. It is 10:14 PM. We are going to get a new phone because the ios6 has major problems! The wifi connectivity is a serious problem. Apple is aware of it. More people need to do something about it. I am willing to start a class action suit against them. I have means to an attorney pro bono. If you are having problems using your iphone 4 or 4s with wifi and ios6...I suggest you spend time calling a senior advisor and get a new phone sent to you. They know they messed up but they can't fix it.

  • Credit card charged when I order or when the phone is shipped?

    Will my credit card be charged when the phone is ordered (3 am on 2/3) or when the phone is shipped?  sorry if this has been asked.  i promise I searched first.

    The official VZW iPhone FAQ gives us very little useful info but, it does state that orders will not be charged until the phone ships. 
    yeah that is the way I read it. and I hope that is the case...on the last two phones I bought they cahrged me the day the order was processed...the X I ordered at 12:03  am on the 15th and it was processed at 2pm on the 15th the charge showed up on my account at the bank at that time( my wife works for our bank  and called to let me know it went through)  I tried to order a Dinc   and my order got messed up when the screens ran out. My order got canceled and it took 6 days for them to credit my refund back... so I hope I read it right this time!
    i'm guessing that may be in part why they have changed it. i doubt many people complained in the past when they would be charged and the product shipped within a few days.....but that htc incredible debacle was a joke. thousands of customers were charged for the price of a phone for a phone that they got a month later. i'm sure is was a customer service nightmare because if you've ever tried to cancel an order with verizon then you know you can forget about that. once the order was placed, they would charge your card. if you wanted to cancel it, you had to wait and refuse delivery, or take delivery and send it back. THEN you could get your $ back. i seriously called to cancel an order 2 hours after ordering a phone for my wife on the 800#. it couldn't be done.

    When do I know if my iphone will switch to wifi and not that it costs somemoney to my phone network operator? is there a spec setting I must do.
    Or is it enough to have the phone set to wifi and phone connects directlywhen it makes contact with a wifi network?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

  • HT201412 my phone will no longer charge, when i plug in the charger the phone says - charging is not supported by this accessory.

    My i phone3GS will no longer charge - when i plug in the charger the phone says "charging is not supprted with this accessory"

    do you have any other chargers? is it the charger that came with the phone? is it giving the same issue when plugged into the computer and into the wall? do you have an apple store near you to try the chargers there? can you buy a new charger at target or something? have you rebooted the phone?

  • I carnt hear my message tone,the sounds it makes when the phone locks and opens.Also i am unable to hear my music playing from my phone but my alarm and ringtone are working.Can anyone help

    i carnt hear my message tone,the sound it makes when the phone locks and opens,also i am unable to hear music when playing from my phone but my ringtone and alarm tone work.Ive made sure the silent button is not on,and the volume button on the side of the phone is just showing it blank instead of it going up and down.To try and fix this i have reset my settings and restored my phone,but now its just skipping the music i have purchased from itunes when in a docking station which is now another problem i have as well.Can anyone help????

    Hello dbrookes,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like even though the Mute switch is not on, sounds are not making the, well, sound they should, and the volume buttons make a blank volume indicator appear on the screen that does not show the volume level.
    I wanted to recommend a couple of things.
    First, I would reset the phone:
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If that does not resolve the issue, then you may want to try backing up to iTunes, and restoring the iPhone again but this time do not restore the backup and set it up as new to see if the issue persists without the previous configuration.
    Just incase you need it, this article will help with that:

    When you said you have no fax machines on your line, that does include computers directly connected to the phone line?
    The reason that I ask is a computer with a dial-up modem (a non broadband modem) that can connect to your phone line, can have software that makes the computer act as a fax machine.
