HT4623 I updated my iPad 2 to the new OS 7 and now I cannot get connected to the wi fi at my school site. I am getting a blue i with a circle around it next to the site in the choose a network. HELP :(
I updated my iPad2 to the new OS7 .....I am getting a blue i with a circle around it next to the networks in my district that I want to connect to. Does anyone know what that means?
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.
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.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

So I update from an old DroidX to a Iphone 5 and now I cannot get texts on my 2012 Ford Edge My Touch Sync. I thought I was upgrading? Before my text messages would come in and I could have them read to me as I was driving. I can voice text messages as I am driving with Siri but now I do not receive responses. Is there a way around this?
Have you consulted the documentation for your car's system to see if it is compatible with the iPhone?

I have a nano and want to transfer my music to my new iPad, in all the excitement of setting up my iPad I created a new apple Id and now I can't sync my music!
Can someone please advise if there is a way to transfer my music to my iPad manually? If so, please detail step by step, as I am technologically challenged! Thanks in anticipation.You can search within your music folder on your pc, or within documents folder for a music folder.
In any case, you would need to sync with itunes

I recently changed my internet service provider and my e mail address. I updated my iTunes account with the new e mail. Now I cannot get updates on my devices, because the login box on each device still contains my old e mail, and I do not know how to change this How can I change this please?
Try tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your devices (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6+) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on them.

Cannot get the Apple.. what?
Model and actual device you are talking about?
Apple covers a pretty huge range.. If you mean extreme.. did you reset it to factory and start over.. that is always necessary when you change a network. You cannot pick up a router from one home and network and plonk it into another and have it work.. aint gonna happen.
You also need to power down any pure cable modem for 20min or so to get it to forget the old MAC address that captured the IP so the Apple ??? has a chance to work. -
I have updated my iPad to IOS 8.1.2. And now I cant watch any videos anymore. Not on Facebook, YouTube, etc. How can I fix this?
We also want your phone to work the way it should be working for you.
How long does a charge last since the update?
Have you reset the network settings? Settings>General>Reset>reset Network Settings>Enter 4 digit passcode>Reset Network Settings

My mom has a brand new Macbook Pro which was set up at the Apple Store and now she cannot get it to accept her log in info. What should she do next?
Thank you sig--it seems in talking to her on the phone that she was not giving me the info correctly and she couldn't get into her bank account, NOT the computer. The computer is fine she was just frustrated with the bank's system and feeling alone with no help handy...

Installed latest update and now i cannot get itunes to load
installed latest update and now i cannot get itunes to load
I was having major problems too. I ended up completely uninstalling itunes then downloaded it again from http://www.apple.com/itunes/. If you're using firefox, for some reason itunes will not download and I don't know if using googlechrome will also have problems,so just to be sure that it will work on your first try, use internet explorer when you download itunes. Hope this helps...
