    If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
    First, test your iPad on some other networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
    If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
    If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
    If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

  • I setup a new iPad air and did a restore from iCloud and only part of my camera roll downloaded?

    I setup a new iPad air and did a restore from iCloud and only part of my camera roll downloaded?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Xena1940.
    When you restore from back up, the process will restore the OS and some initial data, it will then restart and allow you to use your device while the remaining data is downloaded and restored in the background. have you allowed enough time for this to complete.

  • Updated My ipod touch 4th gen to IOS 6.1. Now everytime I try to finish the update process I get a message " Apple ID couldn't be created because of a server error"

    Now everytime I try to finish the update process I get a message " Apple ID couldn't be created because of a server error. I already have an apple ID I am just trying to finish the update so I can use my ipod touch and can not figure out why I keep getting held back at this message

    So I found out with alittle research that instead of entering all that info on my ipod, security questions, birthday, ect that it was much easier to just go to http://appleid.apple.com and place all that info there and save it than try the process on my ipod and it finished the update.

  • I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop

    I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop & all is good until I did the update today. I show apps that need updates, which before they updated automatically. So when trying to updating it asked for my apple password. I kept Putting it in & it said no good. It is using my daughter I'd, not mine. I have checked all my accounts & settings, nothing has her id,just mine. How do I get it to my id?

    Copy the iTunes library from your backup as below:
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
    Sync with the restored library.

  • I just installed iTunes on a WinVista system. Now when I try to setup a new folder, i'm only offered the "Briefcase" option. Was this caused by iTunes. In any case, does somone know how to turn off "Briefcase?"

    Can anyone help with the above question. It isn't a show stopper, but is very annoying.

    Good lord.
    I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
    Quit iTunes first.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
    Is "Burn Playlist to Disc" showing up in the contextual menu now?

    Hi karen615,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you cannot reset your Apple ID password via security questions, you can reset via email authentication. If you are not receiving the email, it may be necessary to contact Apple Support using the link in the Get help section toward the bottom of the article. 
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

  • HT1689 Hi I just tried connecting my new iPad air for the first time to iTunes for backing it up as I already set it up as a new device without it being connected. iTunes keeps stating that my iPad cannot be connected as it has "timed out". Any suggestion

  • New iPad Air can't connect to iTunes; device "times out"; no error code given

    my iMac (8 months old) is running 10.8.5 with latest version of iTunes.  When I try to connect my new iPaid Air with a cable, iTunes open, after a few seconds, a windows appears saying "iTunes cannot connect to the device named Peggy's iPad because device timed out".  no error code is given.  I have restarted my computer and the iPad various times and tried different USB ports on the iMac.  I am using the original lightning cable that came with the iPad to connect.  I didn't have this problem with my old iPad 2 or with my iPod touch.  I do not have any security software installed and no firewalls, etc.  Any suggestions on what is causing this problem?  Thanks.

    You should repost this over in the "using iPad" forum.  The iPad gurus hang out there.  This is the MacBook Air forum.  Here is the link:

  • Downloading existing apps onto new iPad air

    I have just bought the new iPad air. I downloaded all my stuff from iCloud onto it.  However, certain apps have not downloaded and when I try to set them up via the App Store it won't let me download them, just open them.  Eg I can't download the iplayer, channel four and Facebook app.  Any suggestions most gratefully received.  Many thanks

    I downloaded all the apps but couldnt see them on my ipad air. Even Spotlight wont show them either. But the app store told me to "open", which means I already downloaded? I have been restarting the ipad for for many times but couldnt see them on the main page or anywhere else.  Dont know what to do, it happened once before when I first brought it home and tried to install facebook. Several days later, it runs normally, so I thought it was somthing wrong with facebook app. But this time, I was downloading so many different apps and they are nowhere in my ipad. so frustrated ~ hope I can return this ipad

  • I bought a new ipad air but when i install the apps , all of them are gone , but i app store still are and says you can open it. But it can not open.

    I bought a new ipad air but when i install the apps , all of them are gone , but i app store still are and says you can open it. But it can not open.

    The apps available to you are dependent on your location. If you are not in the USA, then you cannot get the USA app store. Whilst you may think that is unfair, it has been a part of the stardard terms and conditions you agreed to when you setup the iOS device in question originally, as well as every time you click agree to the terms and conditions.
    This is done because of two things, firstly there are many legal and semi-legal reasons that an iOS app store download is available in one territory and not another, in addition to this, it also allows apple to provide language specific content, as well as team up with companies and organisations within individual organisations in order to provide you with exclusive offers, content, and information, which it would not otherwise be able to do.
    Rules for the iOS app store are also applied in varing forms for the music store, the books store, and the iTunes U content library.
    I can very much understand your fustraition, as someone who spent a considerable portion of his life, especially during the years he grew up, living in California, USA, but now living in London, UK, I too find it very fustraiting that you cannot always get the same content from one country to another, especially when most marketing for iOS apps originates in the USA these days.
    I hope this helps your query and helps to ease your fustraition. If you would like apple to be aware of your fustraition, rather than putting it onto a pubilc form which is on monitored in a very limited capacity, then you can fill in the form at http://www.apple.com/feedback where you can give your complaint straight to apple.

  • Ok, when i try to sync my new ipod touch to my computer, it says unable to connect for unknown reasons, and as a benefit, it shows the songs as faded in the list and therefore unplayable. how do i fix this problem?

    as stated in the title, i when i try to sync my new ipod touch to my computer it says its unable to connect due to unkown reasons. the music is listed on my touch as there, but faded (minus a selected few songs) and therefore are unplayable. i have no idea where to start, i figured downloading the newest itunes update, however, it no longer shows up when i start it up. confused.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reboot the computer
    - Try another cable and USB port
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
