HT4061 connecting to wi-fi
My new ipad 3 wi-fi bought in NY will not connect to my bt home hub. The hub is functional : I am using it now with my Macbook. BT have failed to identify the problem but if I pay £30 upfront their technical personnel will try to help by 'phone. I used the ipad this morning in the Apple store in Meadowhall and it connected to their wi-fi. Can anyone help? I resent paying money upfront for a service which may or may not solve the problem.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

My ipad will not stay connected to the internet. the message in the settings says low memory. How do I fix this problem?
Go to Settings > General > Usage and you will see the memory consumers. Remove some of the big stuff.

My phone will not turn on. I did a hard reset but all that my screen will show is a picture indicating I should connect the power cord to iTunes (power cord symbol with an arrow iTunes icon).I don't know my serial # and I do not have acces to my laptop.
The serial number has nothing to do with this.
YOur phone is in recovery mode.
You will need access to a computer with itunes on it to restore your phone.

I just updated my mom's Iphone 4, and now it won't turn on. When it does, there is a "itunes" icon, with the cord picture, which is asking me to connect to Itunes, I believe. Can't get past this screen to even turn it on. What do I do without having to restore her entire phone, which I have no idea how to do that?
You need to restore using the recovery mode described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 and may need to do that more than once to succeed.

my iphone 4s unexpectedly stopped working, it wont turn on and my sleep key has not worked in months so i am unable to reboot the phone by holding the sleep key and home button . all i see is a black screen that is lit. when i connect it to the charger nothing happens. please help me!
There's no software fix for a hardware issue. Make an appointment at any Apple store, an out of warranty replacement is US $199 for an iPhone 4S. It that's too much money, find a third-party repair service. But, be aware, if a third-party touches your phone, you void all support from Apple & forfeit the right to an out of warranty replacement. Also, since Apple does not sell parts, there is no way to determine if any parts used to fix your phone are genuine or knock offs.

Then that is what you need to do.
Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Then...
1) Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
2) If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Note on Recovery Mode.
You may need to try this More than Once...
Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Once you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most Recent Backup...

If the device tells you to connect to itunes, then that is what you must do. So to answer your question, you will go to the computer that has itunes on it. -

Ok so my phone is disabled and i can not connect my phone to itunes a get an error message. what can i do.
Connect in recovery mode and restore, you'll get the option to reset the passcode during this process:
iOS: Unable to update or restore and iPhone and iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software. -

By Design you can only Sync the phone to One iTunes Library at a time...
Syncing & importing pics/videos in the camera roll are two entirely different things & have nothing to do with each other.
You can import iPhone camera roll photos/videos using any computer you want...this has nothing to do with iTunes or syncing. -
