HT4623 I cannot turn on the wifi on my iphone.

I can't turn on the wifi on my iphone.  It as all the latest updates and I have reset the settings to default but the on/off swich is still grayed out.

You can try a hard reset by pressing the sleep/wake button and home button together for about 10 seconds and see if it reboots
Edited to add: I would also recommend using iTunes to perform the update since it gives you the option to backup your data files prior to updating.
iYunes must be 10.7 for IOS 6

    I cannot turn on the wifi for my 4G. The button is visible but non functional. Suggestions?

    Hello! Does the wifi button look greyed out? Here is a link regarding this issue: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
    What you will need to do is to first to reset network settings by going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, NOTE: When you do this all bluetooth/wifi passwords will be forgotten. If the issue persists then we need to do a simple backup and restore.
    Follow http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 and http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414 on how to backup and restore, when you restore please restore as new, do not restore the backup just yet if the Wifi is greyed out then there is a hardware issue and the device needs to be serviced. Please check your local Apple Store or call into Apple regarding service options and warranty status. Hope this helps!

  • HT4628 I updated to Mountain Lion 10.8.5 on my 2008 model MacBook and now I cannot turn on the wifi.  I go to System Preferences, Network then click on wifi.  I click Turn Wi-Fi On but it doesn't respond.

    Whats the fix?

    Forget all the suggested solutions for correcting the WiFi connectivity problems with the 2008 MacBook Pro. None of them work. Just purchase a Bear Extender (bearextender.com), install its software, turn off your computer's WiFi (and don't turn it back on!), plug the Bear Extender into your USB, and you will have consistent WiFi connection. Bear Extender never drops!

  • HT1222 I cannot turn on my WIFI on my iphone ever since i updated my ios. How can i fix this?

    The sad part is: the Mac Center in our country cannot do anything about the issue unless the phone is locked to the two major networks here. They only suggested to call apple's hotline or wait for the latest ios update. Unbelievable.

    I have heard rumors that if you are trying to connect to a secured wifi network, and the PSK (pre-Shared Key) is too short, that the iPhone may not let you access your wifi.  Some people have resolved this by setting a longer key on their wifi security settings on their routers.  I have not had this issue, so I can't guarantee that will work, but it might be worth a try...

    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

    <u>'''Kill Application'''</u>
    In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the <u>'''Processes'''</u> tab?

    '''<u>Causes and solutions for Firefox hanging at exit:</u>'''
    '''[[Firefox hangs]]'''
    '''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs#Hang_at_exit Firefox hangs at exit (Mozillazine article)]'''
    '''[[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]'''
    <u>'''Safe Mode'''</u>
    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox SafeMode is a diagnostic mode that disables extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes before starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

    Step #5 DO a back up recovery from the last back up you did onto your computer not Icloud ok!!
