HT4199 Why can't my iphone 4 find the wifi network at home when my ipad 2 has a full wifi signal?

I have an iphone 4 and an ipad2, I have never been able to fully connect to wifi network at home consistently using my iPhone, whereas my ipad2 connects all the time without any problems. My iphone does not even pick up any other local networks, just wondered if there is a setting I need to adjust or something that I can do to be able to connect to any wifi signal or if I should take my phone back to apple store? Thanks

1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
2. If that doesn't work, use this article for troubleshooting: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
3. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
If you restore your iPhone to factory settings without a backup and still can't detect/connect to any network, you should offer the device for service.
Good luck

    Use Task Manager to kill any running processes associated with PSE, then reboot. 
    Use Control Panel's Programs and Features to uninstall PSE. 
    The use Windows Explorer to delete any remaining PSE directories following these directions (change the names to version 10):

    Depends on your carrier and data plan.
    With ATT in the US for example, you can FaceTime via ATT's cellular network if you have a shared data plan only.

    Its a serious problem and many people are facing the same issue on both locked and factory unlocked phones.
    I wonder when Apple will address to this issue. After all it is losing all its reputation!
    See this thread, many users are encountering the same issue:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3425746?start=75&tstart=0
    I believe its a software issue and could be solved asap Apple fixes it!

  • How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    How can I get rid of the constant asking for PIN whenever my iPad has been sleeping?

    You can turn it off:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Turn Passcode Off.
    For security's sake, I recommend changing the amount of time that passes before it locks as opposed to turning off completely:
    Settings > Passcode > enter your passcode > Require Passcode:
    Immediately
    After 1 minute
    After 5 minutes
    After 15 minutes
    After 1 hour
    After 4 hours

  • Why can't I connect to the internet in my home all other appliances are working

    I used my iPad via an hotel wifi and now I am home I can't get it to connect to my wifi help?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Why can't my computer find the Internet since I loaded Lion?

    Any help out there? All my other devices work just fine...

    Disconnect all USB and Firewire devices (except keyboard and mouse, if applicable.) Delete and try to recreate your Ethernet connection.
    If unsuccessful, reset the SMC and try again.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    If still unsuccessful, back up all data, then boot into Recovery and reinstall the Mac OS.
    OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
    If still unsuccessful, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the Lion recovery partition, if present.

  • Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

    Why can't i see "Find iPhone" App under cellular data so I can turn it on?

    We have cell data plan.
    I have other phones (4s) and can see "Find Phone" App under Cellular Data and can turn on/off.  But the problem phone does not have "Find IPhone" to be able toturn on/off.  I made sure app is running when i go to Cellular Data. I guess the question is why do Apps show up under Cellular Data to be able to turn on/off?  I thought if the app was made for Cellular Data it automatically showed up under Cellular Data.

    You can sync iphone with one and only one computer at a time.  If you sync to another, it will erase the current content and replace with content form the new computer.  There is no way around this.
    Put everything on one computer and sync from there.
    BTW, you posted in the Home Share forum.  Your question seems to have nothing to do with home share.

  • Why can I not connect to the itunes store on my iPhone?

    Why can I not connect to the itunes store on my iPhone? Heard that other people are having the same problem and that Apple needs to fix it.

    Hello sakif16,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario
