I am unable to connect to my home wifi, i was fine in a hotel this past week with the wifi
Question I am unable to connect to my home wifi, I was fine in a hotel this past week with their wifi, I am not that technical and need help also how do I find my operating system info??
Go to settings, general, about, and you will see "version." That will indicate what your operating system is such as 5.0.1 which is the most recent upgrade.
As for the wifi, you might try going to settings, then general, then at the bottom reset, then click on reset network settings. Back out of everything and then when you log back onto your wifi it will ask you for your local password (assuming you gave it one when your router was set up). Enter it and you should be good for go. At least this worked for me.
Good luck.

I got a new iPhone 5s and I am unable to connect to my home wifi (through Comcast/Xfinity) network. I was able to with my 4s with no problems but with my new 5s, I just get that a message that says "Unable to connect to network [network name]" Thoughts on how to connect to the wifi network? My laptop is connected and using the wifi just fine.
I see the following instruction:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
However when I get there I am offered a screen which states "Enter Passcode", and have no clue as to what this should be given I never had to set this in the first place.
It expects 4 digit code, so any ideas? -
I recently update to 8.2 and now I am unable to connect to my home Wi-Fi. Solutions?
Start with the simple things. Reboot your router by removing all power for 15-30 seconds. Then, as Knells suggests, reset the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. Plan C is Settings/General/Reset - Reset Network Settings. None of these will cause data loss, but the last one will erase your WiFi passwords.

Hi,
Back from holiday (Thailand) where I connected both my Iphone4 And my MacBook Pro, I am unable to connect to my home WiFi. The icon "turn WiFi on" seems not to respond.
Has anyone a clue ???
ThanksI cannot see how your travel can prevent you turning on wireless.
Did you do a full power cycle of both computer and phone?
Sorry but for phones I have no clue.. but I did find it failed to connect at times and you need to clear out all the old names.. full power off and on again and things suddenly start working.
Laptop can be same.. but apple has specific hardware testing available.
Look at doing tests.. or take them to an apple store and get both tested.
Is there other device still working fine on the home wifi.. have you power cycled that as well. -
My 2nd Gen iPod is "unable to connect" to our home network.
I recently purchased a 2nd Gen iPod touch, but when I try connecting it to out home wi-fi network, I encounter a problem.
The wi-fi screen opens fine, and allows me to select our network. I enter the password - and then I have a problem. I've double- and triple-checked the password, and I know I have the correct code. But when I enter the code, my iPod comes up with a message that tells me it is "unable to connect" to our home network.
I've looked at other posts, and checked the troubleshoot tips for wi-fi connectivity. Nothing has worked.
Our network router is plugged in, and functioning. Every other device in the house can connect, and access the internet. My iPod is the only one encountering an issue. After unplugging and reconnecting the router, and reseting the router and the iPod's network controls, I have literally no idea what to try now.
Can anybody help me?Well I'm not sure what you have tried so far. But I also have a 2nd gen touch and when I have trouble with it...this may sound stupid but I go into WiFi in settings and turn off wifi. I then force restart by holding down the home and power buttons until the screen goes black and you see the apple logo again., then release. When it turns back on turn wifi back on and try to connect

I am unable to connect to my RackSpace Windows Server via ARD. I have added a computer entering the ip address, username, and password but I can't establish a connection. I am missing a setting or to step that is different in ARD?
ARD only works with Windows computers if the Windows computer is running VNC server software. Even then it can only control and observe. Do you have this installed?

I keep getting "Unable to connect" for my firefox. It was working yesterday and I turned my computer off. I can get to the web using internet explorer 9. I don't know why my firefox is not working. Everything else is working.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

My iPhone 5 is experiencing problems with the Wifi at home. It shows that it is connected to the wifi but anything that uses wifi (apps etc) doesn't load content and just looks like it's loading forever but nothing ever comes. However the wifi and wifi/internet dependant apps work sometimes but it's rare. How do I fix this?
Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist. -
I have an iPhone 4 and am in Nepal. My phone was previously able to connect to wifi, but now is unable. I have an iPad and that is able to connect just fine. This problem is with every wifi hotspot I have tried so it is the phone not the modem.
Try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

I just bought an iphone4 and is connected to my wifi at home but I can't bring anything up in the app store, itunes, etc. My husband has a droid 2 and he has no problems with the wifi? Any ideas?
If you look at the top left of your screen you will either see a 3G (or 4G if you have AT&T) or you will see the wi-fi symbol. If you don't see the wi-fi symbol you are connecting to Gmail through your cellular data plan, not via wi-fi.
To answer your question, it doesn't happen often but when it does the steps I mentioned above will normally resolve it. Hopefully you won't have any further problem with this. -
My ipad mini refuses to join home wifi connection. It is trying to do so continuously but with no success. I tried to reset all settings. Switched wifi off and then back on. Nothing works. The rest of devices are fine with the wifi. What shall I do next?
Maybe reboot your router. Unplug it for about 30 seconds or so and then plug it back in. Reboot your iPad while the router is powering up.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

Looks the company apple cannot grow if they do not support solving the problems of their existing customers
Ashok Dhingra
IndiaYou are not addressing Apple here. If you have a problem, describe it and someone might be able to help. Just to be sure, the wi-fi on the phone will go off after the phone goes into sleep mode unless it is actively being used. This is a battery saving measure. If you are actively using the internet, and the phone is still awake, then the wi-fi should remain connected.
What troubleshooting steps have you tried.
