I am unable to join my own wi fi network, but when I take my ipad to starbucks, or any other place where there is free wireless, it works.

This happened when I first got my Ipad, and initially attempted to join my wireless network, and while I was waiting patiently with Apple tech support, it just "started workin".  Not sure whats going on, it is not accepting my router password. 

This leans toward there being a problem with your wireless router and network. If a problem with your iPad, it probably wouldn't connect to any other wi-fi network either.

  • HT2688 Having updated to iOS7, I am unable to upload a video to shared stream but when I do, it won't play on any device other than the one used to upload ... help

    Having updated to iOS7, I am unable to upload a video to shared stream but when I do, it won't play on any device other than the one used to upload ... help please

    I also have this problem, as does everybody else I know who has tried to use the video in icloud. As the original poster says, they can be uploaded, but will only play on the device from which they were originally uploaded, appeaering only as images which display an endless buffering symbol when "played" on any other devices with which the photostream is shared.
    Has anyone been able to get this to work? And if not, why is there no acknowledgement from Apple that this bug exists and will be addressed in an update (now running 7.0.2 and still no improvement)? It was, after all, advertised as one of the attractive new features of iOS 7. So why the stony silence?

  • TS3899 My ipood touch works fine when at home and on my own wi-fi network but when abroad and using wi-fi I can only receive emails but my ipod touch won't send my messages.  I am not very techy but don't know how to resolve this problem.  Any advice?

    Hi
    I am having problems sending emails when using my ipod touch with wi-fi abroad.  When at home my ipod touch receives and I can send emails through my home wi-fi system but when away and logged into other wi-fi networkcan only receive emails and not send them.  Internet access is fine when abroad.
    I am assuming that this is to do with the outgoing server but this is only a guess!
    I am not very techy so any ideas how to resolve this problem would be gratefully received.
    Thanks
    KeithGH

    Seems like the other networks are blocking you from sending emails.
    Do yo have more that one email account on the iPod?
    Have you tried sending from another account?

  • I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s

    I have an AirPort Extreme running the latest software. I've tried everything and still am unable to join my own wifi network from my iPhone 4s, iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 3G, my girlfriend's iPhone 4. The only devices that will connect to the network are our MacBook Pros and iPads, (1 and 2). I have reset the airport to default settings, I've restored my iPhone, I've even disabled the password. I am still unable to join my open airport extreme wifi network. PLEASE HELP!

    Saying you tried everything isn't helpful. Perhaps describing in detail what you've done would allow people to better assist you.
    If you're ever experiencing strange problems connecting to any wifi point you can always try resetting your network settings on your iPhone itself. This solves the majority of wifi problems.
    To do this go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will clear all of your saved wifi hotspots and passwords, and hopefully solve your issue.
    Please try this and respond with your results.

  • I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5

    I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5.  It has the latest software downloaded too.  Keeps saying unable to join network after I type in the password.  All my other devices are able to join but just not the iphone.  I've called Verizon and my internet provider and they have been unable to help.  I had no problems with my iphone 4 with this very same issue.  Please help or I'll be forced to return this phone.  I have 13 days left.

    Try power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then on your phone go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, and try joining your network again.  Note: resetting network settings will erase passwords for previously joined networks on your phone.

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    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.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.

  • Just got new ipohone 4s and used my wife's appleid to sync some apps.  i now have my own appleid. i have logged in on my iphone but when i choose to update apps my wife's appleid is still there.

    This is happening because there must be one or more apps on your phone that were purchased using your wife's Apple ID.  Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID you are currently using in Settings>Store.  The only way to stop the prompt for your wife's ID would be to delete these apps from your phone.

    What TC do you have? Model number direct from the base is a big help, it will be A1 followed by 3 numbers.. eg
    A1409 Gen 4.. The new AC is A1470
    How is it setup?
    I need the whole network setup. what modem/router, how is the TC connected etc??
    I also need to know what IP the ipod gets, so I can see what mode the TC or network router is working in.

  • Unable to join my own network, can anyone help?

    My modem was disconnected from power for a few hours and when it was plugged back in I could get on the internet with my desktop but unable to connect on my iPad.... I get a message that says: Unable to join network... Does not even give option of submitting my password, etc.
    I called my internet provider and he said that it was a device issue that he could not help me... He said he could hook me up with thier SPECIAL ( my words, not his ) tech support for $9.95 per month and they can help with hand held devices... OR I could go to Apple support, before I put money out, I was hoping someone on here might be able to help me, PLEASE?

  • I am frequently unable to join the internet or it runs very slowly.  I have a Time Capsule in my LAN. Are there any compatibility issues with Time Capsules and any ISPs?

    I am frequently unable to join the internet or, if I can, it is exceptionally slow. The ISP says nothing is wrong ontheir end.  Are there any compatibility issues with any ISPs when using Time Capsule and/or iMacs?

    Tried this several times to no avail.  I believe it is the ISP causing the problem...Time Warner.

  • HT4972 My phone is not responding since I downloaded the IOS update 7, I am locked out of using my iPhone, I enter my 4 digit number and a screen appears saying Joining "Sherry's Wi-Fi Network" but nothing else is happening and I can't use me phone.

    An update from Apple appeared on my iPhone so I downloaded it, it was an IOS update.  The screen said to swipe to open, then enter a 4 digit number, which I did then it went to a screen asking for my network info which I entered (except I guessed at the security as being "WPA2", I have not idea, I entered my password and now the only screen that will appear is one stating it is Joining my stated Network??? but nothing is happening and I can't use any of my iPhone features at all?  Help

    Go back to the previous page.  If there's no available wireless networks listed except "Other" which is manually putting the wireless network information, see if you have "activate using cellular" or "connect to iTunes" option.
