Just bought my ipad and cant connect to my home wifi. Any ideas?

Just bought my ipad and cant connect to my home wifi trying to do initial set up.
My wifi is working as my macbook runs off it..any ideas?

1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again, this will refresh the IP address of the iPad.
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
3. Try changing router security e.g. WEP/WPA/WPA2
4. Have you updated router firmware?

I bought an iPad and want to make sure it's on the same apple account but my phone always come up with a different apple Id?

Remember - if you bought any apps with another ID you cannot update them with a different ID.
Try changing the ID in the App Store. Tap on Featured - swipe to the bottom of the screen - tap on the ID in the bottom left corner - and see if you can change it that way.
If that doesn't work, sign out of your account altogether, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
I guess I should ask - what ID is it coming up with and why is it coming up with that ID?

My father updated his iPhone and once he did that he would receive all of my texts and iMessages, is that because we are on the same iCloud account? And if that's why how can I remove it or make it so he doesn't get all my messages

you can change the accounts of different apps in the phone's settings menu.

I have just bought a ipad and cant get the email link to work that verifies my email address, any idea?

I have just bought a ipad and the link that has been sent to my email acount will not work when i try to verify the email address, i have been sent the link 3 times by apple and none of them work. any Ideas?

Try a Reset [Hold the Home (bottom centre) and Sleep/Wake (top right edge) buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

I receive an error stating user name and password are not valid on my ipad and iphone 3Gs when attempting to load email from my icloud account. When I log onto icloud from my Mac, it wont load the email either.

One day, my ipad and iphone pick up my emails (.mac account) from icloud just fine. the next day, I recieved error messages that say my user name and password are not accurate. I removed the icloud program on both devices and added it back on to both devices and get the same message. I logged into icloud from my Mac and while I can log in, it times out when I select email and wont load the email there either. Any Suggestons?

I am having the same problem; it started about 24-36 hours ago.
I know my ID/PW combo are correct because I can access all other aspects of iCloud except mail.
iPhone -- returns incorrect ID / Password
iPad -- Same
Mail.app on Mac -- returns incorrect password error
icloud.com -- allows me to log in and use all functions accept mail. When I try to use mail it stays on a white screen for about 60 seconds then returns a dialogue box that indicates a server error.
I contacted Apple and they placed my iCloud account into something called "Troubleshooting" mode. They generated a new strong password and sent it on to "Engineering."
I suspect there are a small number ofo users like you who are affected with the same problem I am. Too small a number for it to be reported as an outtage. I suggest you call Apple and open a case to have your mail investigaged.
Hope this helps...

I've recoverd my Ipad and now I can't pair it with my old iCloud account. I can see my music in my iPad but can't play it. How can I solve this problem?

How can I pair my iPad with my old iCloud account?
Thanks!

Those are the instructions for your computer's iTunes (i.e. using the Store menu at the top of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'View My Account' on it). If you are doing it on your iPad then are you following the instructions for iOS devices :
To unhide your purchases
Depending on the content type, open the App Store, iBooks, or iTunes Store on your device.
Scroll to the bottom of the main page.
If you're not already signed in, tap Sign In.
Tap your Apple ID name, then tap View Account.
Scroll down on the Account pane, and tap Hidden Purchases.
Locate the item you would like to unhide then tap the Unhide button.

If I change my apple ID and/or make a new ID can I get another icloud account?

If I change my apple ID can I create a new icloud account as well? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks for any help in advance!

I highly suggest you do not make a new AppleID.
SImply update the current ApppleID with new info.
Anything purchased in iTunes be transferred beween accounts.

If you're able to contact the person who set the lock, send them this link and tell them to follow its instructions.
If not, you can't use the device but may be able to get it refunded. Apple won't remove the lock for anyone other than the original owner(assuming they're alive.)

You need to return it to the seller and get your money back. You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

HT4623 Hi..I recently bought an IPAD and I absolutely love it. I have been Skyping w/my family during this deployment for the past two weeks until yesterday. The camera on my side just stopped working. I am able to see my family. Any help.

Try closing the Camera/Skype app:
1. Double-click the Home button to reveal the Task Bar
2. Hold down the Camera/Skype app for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app
4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen
If the above doesn't solve the problem, do a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

I've just bought an iPad and there's a line that runs the whole length of the screen about an inch from the outside edge of the screen. Have I bought a faulty product?

The last time I synced my iphone with itunes, I lost all my contacts, photos, calendar, and voice memos. This time I lost all my apps and the music isn't synced. Also, I just bought an ipad, and it won't sync at all.

Re: That garbage is unreadable.
If you really want help, stop messing with the fonts and post so that others can read and offer suggestions.
Or better yet... try a search, I'm certain you'll find a solution to whatever issue you're experiencing.
I have found that many times it is the things that make you most angry that push you to action. This was the case here. Thank you for causing me to get so angry that I found the answer myself.

I bought an iPad and an iTunes card, I want to buy an application from the Apps store but it only gives me the option of credit card. How can I buy Pages with my iTunes card to my iPad? thank you

Have you redeemed your iTunes card to an account associated with an Apple ID?
Once you have your iPad associated with an Apple ID AND you have an account with a credit card associated with the same Apple ID AND you have some 'store credit' (from redeeming your iTunes card) then purchases use the store credit before they charge the credit card, so you should be ok!
Personally, I use 'store credit' as a way to monitor whether or not there have been any 'unauthorised' purchases because as soon as the store credit is zero, the security code from the credit card is needed for further purchases! It does mean that I have sometimes to top up store credit before making a purchase, but 'better safe than sorry'!

I bought the iPad and got it home and when I turned it on, all I see is the iTunes logo w/ a usb connector and arrow. How do I clear that and go to the home screen??? HELP!
