I am very unhappy with Apple response to wifi problem. Has anyone had a positive response?
The wifi function has stopped working on my 4S. I see this is a common problem that was caused by Apple with the 7 software. Has anyone gotten satisfaction from apple?
Have spent 1 month trying to get a resolution to this problem and Apple seem to be behaving in a profoundly unprofessional manner. My own phone (14 month old – so outwith warranty) failed the day of the update to IOS 7.0.4 and on checking with a techie colleague discovered his had failed as well. I'm assuming the new software is overdriving the Wi-Fi chip which then overheats causing solder-joint degradation. The only fix is for the chip to be re-attached by very sophisticated SMT flow-solder technology - a bit beyond a "man with a blowlamp".
Apple should NOT be responding with an audible note of surprise when you phone support with your problem when the forums are inundated with countless examples of a problem which has obviously been caused by an IOS upgrade which it would appear is inappropriate for their current iPhone models.
I was hoping for a “special upgrade or replacement offer” for victims of this problem – but cannot wait any longer, so have reluctantly opted for a Mail-In Exchange/Repair. A recent convert to Apple products – 2 Write-Off phones in three years is getting seriously expensive for me! If Apple don’t respond more positively this will I fear get seriously expensive for them too!

The display screen on my Ipad is coming up all blurred with blue background mixed with pink and purple lines. It's difficult to see icons but apps are still accessible. Colors are off and images are very unclear on apps and home screen.
Has anyone had this problem or any advice on troubleshooting?
Thanks.First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
But it could also be a hardware failure. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. -
I did everything recommended on apple store support site and still cannot connect to the network with my new iphone 5 but my co-workers and students (I work for the university) can keep connectivity all the time. I am very unhappy with my new phone
Be patient, Apple is coming out with a update soon, its been reported that they have sent the update to the carriers to test, which means it will be soon. And is suppose to address this issue.

iPad mini with retina still having wifi problems with iOS 8.0.2 - slow or none. Resetting temporarily fixes problem it very annoying. Please fix Apple! Not up to scratch.
I Have followed these steps, and tried others, such as resetting all my network settings. At best these only temporarily fix the problem - wifi still becomes slow or stops. I have other Apple devices connecting fine to my airport express. why is my iPad mini not working? Is it related to the fact it is 3G and I don't have a sim card installed? It is the current top of the range model with iOS 8.0.2. I paid over the odds for the best, and it is almost completely redundant. Apple - I'm losing faith. You need to keep the public better informed and fix this problem fast, otherwise I will leave you for good.

I do not know what tech. s lacking in iphone 4 that prevents it to be able to use turn by turn navi. I do not see any difference between 4 vs 4S and yet 4S is able to support it. I am very disappointed with apple as i was when 4S was released. I will not purchase iphone5 becuase i think its nowhere near what apple calls it "perfect". there are plenty of other phone around. Lumia 920 for example is a much better phone. Just disappointed with apple...
http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/
the fine print in the map section states that turn by turn is only available for 4S and up. -
Has anyone had a problem with TapMedia File Manage installed on iPhone 5? I reported a WIFI functionality problem to the developer and asked for support. Instead the company has been very unprofessional by name calling me instead of logically evaluate and troubleshoot the problem

Did you restore that iPhone from a backup of your previous iPhone? If that's what caused the problem to come back, you can try restoring the iPhone as a new device.
If that isn't it or it doesn't work, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim -
Has anyone had success with Apple replacing their iPhone 4 [out-of-warranty] concerning the stuck power button?

The computer was purchased in the knowledge that all components and hardware were genuine and subsequently covered by the Apple Care warranty.
Domayne replaced the genuine components (8GB stick) with generic components (2x 16GB sticks) to save money and boost margin.
Apple should not allow this misleading, profiteering behaivour. This behaviour is brand damaging. Apple must maintain more control over their supply chain.
Has anyone had any expirenece with this problem?
Has anyone made Domayne or other third party resellers acountable for this misleading behaviour?
Thank you.Stick with Brand name RAM and reputable distributors. Mac is finicky about low quality RAM
Try OWC http://www.macsales.com/
Crucial http://www.crucial.com/
Most RAM comes with Lifetime guarenntee so return it where you got it. -

Has anyone had the Network time and date error with Apple TV when traveling?
Jasion,
Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

My phone keeps freezing, the apple sign appears on the screen and then it freezes again and repeats itself.. has anyone had this before? if so, what is it? & it's also not letting me restore it from iTunes, it keeps coming up with error (9) or error (14).. help?
Hi there Holly N,
You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Configure your security software
Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.

Has anyone had any problems with their charger blowing out?
Has anyone had any problems with their charger blowing out? mine blew, there's now a charred pin on the charger and in the socket of the macbook. The plastic around the charge socket is also cracked & distorted from the blow-out. It wasn't a power surge as no other electrical items were affected. It wasn't liquid or dust, as I'm the only person who uses it & I'm very careful. I'm concerned that the consequences could have been terrible. I wasn't present when it happened though, I can just see the evidence after the event.
I have a mid 2010 13" Macbook running the latest software & use the original magsafe charger that came with it.
Will I have to fork out for a costly repair or is there a safety issue that Apple will sort out for me?
Any advice would be much appreciated.Everything in the box with iPhone is covered by the iPhone warranty ,go to Apple genius bar before warranty expires
