I can't access my wi-fi settings

my wi-fi worked for a while, but my touch froze for a minute. when i turned it off and back on, i didn't have a signal and when i go to settings it is gray and says no wi-fi. what happened?

Hi all,
Had my touch for about 3 weeks now and very happy with it (especially with 1.1.2 having the ability to actually enter appointments!). However, this morning I turned it on and there's no wi-fi (which is why I'm on this topic, of course)!!!
Like the first poster, the touch says "No Wi-Fi" in the settings page, all greyed out. Done a few reboots (hard and soft) and resets (although not the sort that loses data) with no success. What I'm wondering is if this is an actual hardware problem. It was cold last night and when I took the touch out of my bag indoors it got covered in condensation. Has moisture got in and messed it up? I've been trying to keep it warm to force out any moisture, but no change yet. Anyone else had this and it's magically recovered, or is this a one way street??
Cheers,
Ian

Can't access iCloud, Facebook, Messages settings on iPad 3 after ios 6 update

Once I updated to ios6, I went to post a pic to Facebook from my camera roll. It told me I had to add a Facebook acct and directed me to my settings page. Half my settings are GREYED OUT AND UNAVAILABLE!. Facebook, iCloud, Twitter, Messages, FaceTime, plus other settings under Mail/Contacts etc are also unavailable. I reset my iPad, then the Internet stopped working where it had been fine before! Came up with an apple login page and would disconnect me-- fixed that by setting http proxy to auto-- still can't access the above mentioned settings! Anyone else, any suggestions?!

I had this problem too. But I remembered I was playing with the restriction settings just right before it greyed out. I disabled restrictions and it came back. I would try to disable renewable a few times to see if it comes back.

I can't access my router's settings

I am trying to set up a chromecast and it was having trouble connecting. I checked the Chromecast router compatibility and it says my Actionnet router should be able to work with chromecast if I enable UPnP through my router settings. A quick google on how to get into the router settings led me to this .pdf http://www.actiontec.com/products/datasheets/How%20to%20change%20your%20wireless%20settings%20verizon%20fios-1.pdf It gave me a link to a website where I had to enter my Verizon account username/password. I did but every character I type for the password, it added a few more. By the time I entered in my password, it appeared to be ~40 characters long. I tried putting in a letter, deleting all the other letters added, and entering the next but that doesn't work.
Now I'm stuck wondering if Verizon is for some reason, not allowing me access to my router settings. Help would be appreciated.

cam2014,
It's definitely important to have your router's information, we're happy to help as much as possible. Is this router through Verizon Wireless or Verizon Communications, like internet at home through land line? If it's residential services, you can contact them here http://vz.to/QrJ593 . If it's wireless, please let us know the device model you have.

How can I access Gmail's web settings (like away messages) on iPad?

I have gmail set up with Mail, and I can access the web app to send and search email fine. But the full web app does not load well or function. I cannot access settings, like Labs or filters or managing multiple From accounts.
Does anyone know how to get the full gmail experience on iPad?

Scroll to bottom of page in safari, hit the little link for desk top instead of mobile.

When I go into any app that requires me to use the key board I instantly go back to the home page and can't access anything (not even settings)

When ever I go into an application that requires me to use the key board the app just closes down and takes me back to the home page. I can't even get into settings. Also if I bring up the key pad it just sticks after I press a couple of keys? Help? I can't get into fb/pages anything!

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

How can I access my home security DVR from the internet?

My Time Capsule (as a router and not a bridge) blocks me from accessing my home security DVR from the internet. I can access it from other computers connected to my LAN but not from the internet. I guess it's a firewall setting issue. I can't add the home security application to the list of firewall allowed incoming connections since it's a Windows app that I cannot install on my Mac. On the other hand, the app is installed on my old PC but I can't access the Mac firwall settings from the PC and add the security app (If that's the problem).
My DVR is connected to a Netgear switch which is connected to the Time Capsule which is connected to a Cisco modem provided by Comcast. I thought one of the modem ports had to be opened by Comcast. That was not the issue. After spending 2 hours on the phone with Comcast going in circles talking to 10 different overseas agents, they concluded the Netgear switch was blocking me from accessing the DVR. I think they are wrong and that it's a Mac firewall problem. HELP!!! Does anyone know what could be the problem and how to solve it?

Did you forward the required ports in the TIme Capsule? If not it won't work.. it has nothing to do with firewall unless the DVR is plugged into the Mac. If it is plugged into a switch you need to lock the IP of the DVR and find out what ports are required.. usually just port 80, ie html.. but it could be some others.
Since Apple do not use upnp to open ports.. the TC will have to manually be provided with the ports.. Apple use PMP-NAT that is not used by the rest of the known world.. Just to ensure you stay in the camp.

How can i change the apn on an iphone 3 if i can't access that?

how do i change the apn on my iphone 3g if i can't access it through general // settings?

Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging > ON
This also requires that you and the other parties have MMS messaging enabled in your cell plan. Also, some carriers have restrictions as to the size of the file (picture) that can be sent/received.

I have an iPad mini, 16GB, running on the 7.1.2 iOS system, my App Store icon is no longer on my home screen and neither is my iTunes Store icon. They are listed in my settings but I can't access any unless through other games, or songs on iPad.

I Have an iPad mini operating on 7.1.2 iOS. My App Store icon as well as my iTunes Store icon are missing from my home scree. They are still listed under my settings, but I can't access them unless it's through an app that already exists. Where can I go to reinstall these? I use the same Apple ID on my iPhone 5c as well and they are on the iPhone, but I don't know how or why they just disappeared from my iPad and want to know how to get them back without having to reset my iPad and lose what I have on it. Thanks, Karla

Thanks so much! My grandaughters played games on the iPad over Xmas and one of their moms said shed restricted their access! Guess they forgot to enable again. Thank you again! Karla

Can't Access Router Settings via 192.168.2.1

I have recently changed modem/routers as my connection speed was increased recently and the old modem wasn't up to the task... The previous modem/router was preconfigured and I did nothing to it, however the new one requires settings be fixed by accessing it via a browser at 192.168.2.1
When the technician came to check my line and set up the new modem, we encountered a strange situation. Despite being connected by Ethernet cable, my machine could not access the IP address reserved for the router.
The reply is: "Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://192.168.2.1/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “192.168.2.1”."
We tried Firefox and the same happened.
I have deactivated my firewall, rebooted, changed cables, restarted the router, got Safari to pretend to be Explorer, got the neighbor's dog to bark at it, everything except make a blood pact with the devil, and the two browsers on my machine think that 192.168.2.1 is an external address- which it isn't, and of course fails to connect.
The technician used his laptop to configure the thing, so I can access the internet (obviously) but I must find out why I can't access the router/modem's settings, if only to find some logical reason for this illogical behavior.
I've tried looking this issue up, and I get lots of bad wiring, wireless connection, windows proprietary shenanigans, but none that explain my situation.
I'd appreciate it if someone could help me make sense of this.
My setup:
Computer Model Name: Power Mac G4 (AGP graphics)
Model Identifier: PowerMac3,1
Processor Name: PowerPC G4 (3.3)
Processor Speed: 1.35 GHz
Number Of CPUs: 1
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
L3 Cache (per CPU): 2 MB
Memory: 832 MB
Bus Speed: 100 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.2.8f1
Sales Order Number: M7827LL/A
Router: "2-Wire Gateway"

Your advice did the job quite nicely and it seems this is the "natural way of things," but I was totally unaware of it since my previous modems were preconfigured and I never had to muck about with subnets and such things.
What irks me is that this is basic, bare bones information that the Tech support people should have given me right off the bat. Why do they assume I have all the right numbers input into the Ethernet or PPPoE settings? They seemed totally perplexed that I couldn't connect, and frankly so was I- since my old Mac, as decrepit as it is, is still able to kick it with the modern way of things better than most computers I work with.
If they had asked me if I had set the right IP's in the right slots, it could have been fixed in 2 minutes.
Thank you very much for solving my problem, it saves me a lot of stress and confusion.

I changed my Apple ID but my iTunes hasn't updated so I can't access it...do I need to reset all devices to factory settings? or how else do I get the iTunes to link to Apple ID?

I updated my Apple ID primary email address without having switched off 'Find my....' on all devices. A 2 hour very helpful call with Apple Support solved ny Apple ID and ICloud. Later, I tried to update apps but my iTunes account is still on the old ID and I can't access that email/password anymore. I can't get a support appointment for 48 hours but need to update travel apps soon!
Do I need to reset to factory settings on all devices (5!) and start again...or how else can i get iTunes to link to my Apple ID now?
Any help appreciated!

Thanks, David. But that was the first thing I tried. For some reason, when I try to change my Apple ID back to my old email address, I get the message that that Apple ID is already in use and so I cannot use it! I have tried requesting a password reset using my old Apple ID email, but I've waited and waited and nothing has come to my old email address. This is sooooooo frustrating!

Icloud is greyed out in settings can't access iCloud or Twitter

iCloud an Twitter are greyed out in Settings on my iPad. iTunes says that it was backed up this morning. I can not access iCloud on my pad. Anyonelse?

A little more info is needed. How are you trying to access iCloud (via contacts, calendar, mail app)? Also check Settings>Restrictions. Not sure if turning it on would cause this, but check to be sure its not turned on.

Iphone 4s in settings can't access Notes or Mail. Also can't access mail from home screen. Can't send email. All else is good.

I need help. I have reset my iphone. I have turned it off then on. Still can't launch my built in mail app from home screen. When I try it goes to blank page then right back to home screen view.
In settings for the iphone 4s I can not access Notes or Mail, Contacts,Calendars. When I tap either of the two they highlight in blue and then go right back to Home Screen view. I seem to be able to access everything else in settings with no trouble.
From home screen I have no trouble I can launch the built in utility Notes with no problem. I also can launch Calendars from Home Screen view. My Contacts are still reachable by tapping Phone from H/S view then clicking on contacts.
I can not launch mail. nor can I send email. Also the built in mail app is not showing it is recieving mail either. All else seems fine.
I can log in to my email from Safari on iphone and from my laptop with no problem.
Anyone have any suggestions? My iphone is out of warranty. Apples only suggestions are To pay for support.
Thanks in advance

Just had a thought....was trying to rememberif anything changed last night. I think I installed a mac OS X Security update. That's about the time the trouble started. Any ideas? Thanks.

How can I access Advanced Javascript Settings?

I'm aware that, in recent versions of Firefox, the ability to disable Javascript has been removed. I don't intend to re-open discussion of that particular decision. But removing that option has also removed access to the Advanced Javascript Settings menu, which was far more useful than simply disabling Javascript itself. For example, although I rarely disabled Javascript entirely (other than when debugging my own site), I routinely disabled the ability of websites to disable context menus or to move and resize pop-up windows.
Unlike disabling Javascript entirely, these are settings which provide a positive benefit for "ordinary" (non-developer) users. If, say, I want to open a link in a new tab, then the correct way to do that is to right-click on it. Sites which disable right-click degrade the user experience, and allowing a way to override that is a good thing. Whatever the justification for removing the ability to disable Javascript entirely (and I do understand it, even if I don't agree with it), I can't see any justification for removing access to these advanced settings.
So my question is, how can I re-enable access to the Advaned javascript Settings? I can't see any obvious setting for it in about:config, and simply disabling javascript entirely via that method isn't what I want to do.

The href value javascript:void(0) is a placeholder to be shown when you hover a link, so you can see that this is not a normal link.<br />
The actual action is done via an onclick handler that is tied to the button (link), so if this isn't working then this can be caused by a script that didn't run properly to add this onclick action to the button or that JavaScript is blocked on that website possibly by an extension.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Note that there is also security software that can block pop-ups and JavaScript, so check that as well.
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
