HT4623 i updated and ipad froze when trying to connect to wireless to finish setup....can't get it to do anything....
update caused ipad to freez up....suggestions?
No, you did what i suggested. If it asks for the password, then you are talking to the router. That is a good sign. Some folks dont get that far. What is happening now, is the security in the router is not accepting what you are inputting from the pad, or there is some setting in the router blocking your access.
With all the time you have spent on this, and re reading the previous posts, it sounds like you have done everything that i can think of.
Maybe the trip to costco is the answer, and if so, sorry i wasted your time.
Are you comfortable enough with your router to open its contro
Panel up and look at the settings? If so, take a peek. Some routers are set to only allow new devices that are identifed by mac adress. Others, in the securit section, may have a block turned on. But if either of those were the case, you would know, because you would have set it up that way.
If you are an experimenter, try turning off the wifi security entirely, and see if you can join the net work. If you can, then you will have confirmed that the isue js tied directly to theway the router and pad were trying to negotiate the security.
If you can join if it is open, then reset to the lowest type of security you can, get it owrking, then keep moving up until you find the block point.
Glad it is a holiday weekend, so maybe you have the time to **** with it.

Just erased and reinstalled the OS (Tiger OS X v10.4) on my old iBook G4 so I could give a wiped clean laptop to my young son. At the point in the reinstall process where I Select a Wireless Service. When I enter the correct password for my correctly selected home wireless network, it responds with a message box that says, "AirPort error. There was an error joining the selected network." What now? Should I just select "My computer does not connect to the Internet" so I can get past this point? But the fact is, connecting to the internet is about the only thing he's going to use it for. Aaaaarrrrgggghhhh! Please help! All advice welcome...
Thanks for your response, but the initial problem is that I'm still stuck in the set-up process. I can't move past this screen to get to anything else unless I can get it to accept my wireless network password, or I suppose I could go back one screen to the "How Do You Connect?" screen and select "My computer does not connect to the Internet." I presume that might get me past this set-up phase into an area where I could futz around with settings. But I was concerned about disabling something I couldn't fix later (me, not a techie!) by selecting that. What's the consensus? Should I just do that so I can get out of the set-up process? Will I be able to reactivate my AirPort once I'm just in operating mode? I really should be more technically proficient than this...

My ipad freezes when trying to connect to WIFI. It say i am connected, but can't access sites
I am using the Wifi in my house and I am connected. The IPad 3 freezes. My phone which is an I phone 4 works fine on the wifi.
What shold I doYou can try clearing Safari and see if that fixes the problem.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data or Cache. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

Hello:
Try this on your iPad:
Unpairing a Bluetooth accessory
If you've paired iPad with an accessory that you no longer wish to use, you can unpair the accessory.
From the Home screen choose Settings > General > Bluetooth. If Bluetooth isn't on, turn it on.
Choose the accessory and tap Unpair.

Invalid password when trying to connect to wireless internet
I have just bought a 20 inch iMac and am having troubling connecting to the wireless internet in this house. My mac address has been added to the administrators network and she has given me the password but it comes back invalid. I am putting it in in lower case, exactly as it is written. I have gone thru network diagnostics etc. but still does not work. I went into Airport Utility but it couldn't find anything and asked me to rescan.
Is there anyone out there that had a similar problem, or can anyone help. At the moment I am using the internet via their ethernet cable in someone else's room, but would like to use wireless in my own room.If you are entering the correct password, then I can only assume that your MAC is incorrect in the router.
Your Mac has two MAC addresses - one for Ethernet and a different one for WiFI. Be sure that your WiFI MAC is the one added to the router for WiFi -
System freeze when trying to connect to wireless PEAP network
This is reproducible everytime. May I know which logs I may find to debug this, and also any possible solutions?
Thanks!Solution - don't know
Logs: in /var/logs
kernel.log, dmesg.log, messages.log, everything.log, possibly daemon.log (contents may overlap between these)
If problem is with X: Xorg.0.log.old
If you use wicd: /var/logs/wicd/wicd.log
There has been a fairly widespread problem the past 2-3 months with untraceable system freezes (screen goes black, keyboard & mouse freeze, requires hard reset) that probably involve a kernel panic (flashing CAPS & Scroll Lock LED's) but nothing is found in the logs. Search this forum, e.g. for "freeze". Example of one thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=88594
I've been experiencing this for >2 months, and sometimes suspect that in my case it comes from wlan (using WPA/PSK) which frequently disassociates and then reassociates but I find nothing in the logs. Maddening! -
since this morning [1 may] i cannot connect to any bookmarked or other url [except the firefox homepage?!], because the only connection made is to yahoo!search. and even when yahoo!search displays the search result correctly to the site i want to go on, if i click on that i only get returned to yahoo!search again. since i prefer not to use yahoo!search at all, how can i disable yahoo!search permanently?
There are other things that need your attention.
Check that you do not run Firefox in compatibility mode or with a reduced screen resolution.
You can open the Properties of the Firefox desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu and check the "Compatibility" tab.
Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
You can check if you have the XML files of the default search engines including Google in the browser\searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder.
If not then you need to reinstall Firefox.
Try to delete the search.json file and possible search-metadata.json and search.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder to reset the search engines to the default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Firefox will rebuild the search.json file from the default search engines in the "browser\searchplugins" folder in the Firefox program folder and the searchplugins folder in the Firefox profile folder. -

There was some updayts for my iPad 4 automatically downloaded. After installing it, the iPad began to restart itself every few minutes.
I tryed to update my iPad using iTunes. After connecting to MacBook Pro, where is installed all latest software, iPad is recognised as "iPad", Serial Number: n/a. iTunes run recovery mode, trying to restore iPad firmware, and in the end unknown error occured (3). Tried many times, not results. And now iPad stays only in recovery mode, can't switch it off. How can I solve this problem please?When I restart my iPad the connect to iTunes comes up and stays on until it shuts down again, I have read a report from Apple support suggesting I reinstall iTunes so I might try that again and also your suggestion which i shall also try, but thanks again - rg1547

Installing the latest update on my iPad - error message saying the iPad couldn't synchronize because of an internal error, and then - error message (OxE8004017) when trying to save, and then (2003) when trying to restore - nothing works anymore - On my iPad the only thing I see is a connector cord to iTunes and nothing else.
What can I do ???Same issue for me, recently I started having issues with apps no longer being able to access my Facebook account. But the iPad Facebook account settings will not accept my password, even though the Facebook app and Safari can access my account fine. The only significant events I recall that have occurred that may have triggered this have been that via my Facebook account I killed off a lot of so called authorised connections and I changed my user name, but still have the same email address and password.
I have tried just about every solution put forward on the net, short of a factory restore, back to new, on my iPad.
I have also; deleted my iCloud account, deleted the Facebook app and account, deleted Safari data.
One would think that after I have deleted my account from the iPad that it would ask for both username/email address and password, but it only asks for password, so the username is still stored somewhere that I am unable to delete.
I also see that no one seems to have been able to get an answer from Apple. So I'm guessing they have absolutely no idea themselves.
I am hesitant to put my username on Facebook back to what it was as Facebook only give you a few chances to change your username, then you are locked.
I have iOS 7.1.1 installed.
I did have a lot of respect for Apple and their devices as they just worked, but they are becoming tarnished by ignoring what seems to be a growing issue.
