I cannot turn on my wifi and have tried everything its still greyed out

I reset network settings, reset all settings and made sure my phone software was up to date however it is still greyed out and i cannot switch it back on. is there anything else i can do? or do i need to take it back to the shop

Is this true for all WiFi areas or only at home? If all WiFi then it needs to go to the Apple store genius bar for testing by the techs.
If only at home, have you worked through http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen. Full Wifi signal on both devices

Got new ATV and all set up. It keeps loosing connection with iTunes on laptop and have tried everything suggested in set up guide. It works fine for a while then the iTunes account vanishes from 'computer' menu TV screen. Full Wifi signal on both devices so can't think what could be causing it to happen. Any suggestions please?

Sorry, I updated another thread I was a part of but didn't update my own thread.....ughhh!
I updated all of my ATV 2's and 3's to the latest firmware when it was released and have been problem free since. I do believe the major issue of not being able to connect after a period of inactivity has been corrected with the latest ATV firmware.
I can look at my network connection table using "netstat -an" in a CMD window and I do not see the massive number of connections I saw before the update.
Here is a link to the other thread I was referring to above:

Have you applied the latest firmware updates to your ATV 3's?

Reset the device:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
If that doesn't help, restart your internet modem and router then try downloading books.

When you say it "can not scan any wifi network" do you mean it is not detecting Wi-Fi networks?
Is Wi-Fi turned on in Settings > General > Wi-Fi?
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
Is it just the home network that the device will not connect to? or any network?

Is there anyway to have an 11 inch mac air connected to an external monitor with lid closed and still be able to see content. I have a wireless ketboard and mouse and have tried everything. Only works when plugged in.

You are referring to a feature called Clamshell Mode, please read Clamshell Mode setup for instructions.
BTW when posting when you use generalities such as "have tried everything" this tells us nothing. When posting please be specific and try to paint a complete picture. It just makes things easier for those trying to help you.

You don't see it on the left-hand side of iTunes - you need to connect and select the iPad on the left-hand side, and then one of the tabs on the right-hand side that you use to select which content to sync to the iPad should be Photos : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
You will need to select and sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent sync remains on the iPad, not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from it.

I cannot view videos and have tried everything.

I cannot play videos in Firefox. It does not recognize that Flash has been installed. I have tried everything and am actually tired of this. When I check on page it says the npnul32.dll is missing. I do not know what that is or how to fix it, can you PLEASE help, this has been going on for months.

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [[Managing the Flash plugin]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
* [[Video or audio does not play]]
Check and tell if its working.

If you are still unable to turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options.

Since upgrading my 4s to ios7 i cannot turn on my wifi and my battery life is halved how can i fix these probe?

my tech nephew told me to reinstall io7 as it has been updated to resolve these problems (cannot access wifi and battery life is halved) Is this true and what's the best way to reinstall ios7?

Try this - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

I have late 2006 iMac 24" and I cannot boot it up. I have tried everything but it will only come up in safe boot. I can, at last, boot up on the option key and it now gives me the option of the Recover HD but when I select this, it still won't boot up?

When I select the Recovery drive it tries and then I can't get further than a white screen. My curser so has 2 columns of marks like a horizontal barcode. I think it's a software problem. When I boot up in safe boot, I have run the disc utility and it says the disc is fine and I have run the repair permissions but it makes no difference.

Thanks AAndy but I had read all of that and tried everything but I have no disks as I upgraded from Snow Leopard over the internet. I have my Snow Leapard box but the disk is missing so I can't use that and anyway, I can only boot up in safe boot so it wouldn't recognise the superdrive. I had a copy of the recovery on a flash but it doesn't recognise that. I have redownloaded it but cannot get it onto an external because of safe boot. I have done the following
Reset the PRam, reset the desktop.
Tried the D key - no responce
Tried opt D and Command D - no responce
Comant R, jusr R and opt R - no responce
By no responce, I mean that the wheel goes round under the apple and then it goes white - and stays like that.
The only thing that I can do, is to boot up on the option key when it give me a choice of drive. If I select Recover, wheel turns under apple - white wcreen
If I boot up on the shift key, it boots into safe mode and there it stays, quite happy surfing the internet and playing stupid Facebook games, so long as I don't want to use any search engines (none of which work (not finder, not mail, not anything) and then after a few hours of forgotton pleasure, it crashes!
The only thing I can think of to do is to redownload Lion - it appears in my purchased account in the App Store but, Sod's law, our satellite internet is not working and I don't think my phone account has enough MBs - anyone know how many Lion is?
I can't backup because I can't use an external drive and old one stopped working a few months ago, so I haven't been backing up and as this is the first problem I have ever had with my iMac in 7 years, I had got a bit comlascent! However, I am pretty certain that I can re-install Lion without wiping my hard drive - I have done it years ago with an older system and an older Mac.
Do you think that downloading Lion again and re-installing it will help? Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks for responding so far.

IPhone and iPad no longer connect to my wifi I have tried everything I have read about troubleshooting still nothing... what should I do?

I have never had any problem connecting my apple devices to my wifi until a couple days ago. My sony laptop still connects just fine. Every time I try to connect my iPhone it says unable to connect. I have restarted every possible thing, reset network settings, forget and re connect wifi nothing has worked for me. I don't get very good service in my apartment so I rely heavily on my wifi and I am at a loss at what to do.

Have you restarted your ROUTER? Remove all power from it for about 30 seconds. Even if it works with your laptop.

Ipod Touch 4 device not listed - cannot sync, and have tried everything listed!

Help! I pulled my IPod out to take on a trip, and I cannot get it to sync. It has been a couple months since I used it, and have gotten a new computer in the meantime. I installed the latest Itunes version to the computer (windows 7). The Ipod Touch 4 is charged. I have tried changing cords, changing hubs, uninstalling/reinstalling itunes. My computer and another home computer WILL NOT recognize the device. It does not give me an error message - it gives me nothing. I have rebooted both computer and Ipod. I went into msconfig as listed on the hlp page. Nothing. I probably need to update the Ipod too, but is there a way to do this other than connecting to Itunes through the PC? Any suggestions?
Thank you.
Vanessa

Does your Touch charge? When you plug it into the wall does it charge? If so, that's good because it means mechanically it's fine.
When you plug it into the computer does it recognize the ipod at all? Often you can get the photo import wizard opening up, which is a confirmation that the hardware works and that your issue is likely a software one.
You can try resetting your ipod by holding down the home and sleep key, past the red slider, and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again.
You may also want to research into Windows 7 and the Apple Mobile Device Driver because I think that's the root of your problem. No driver, the computer has no instructions what to do with this thing plugged into it.
You've probably already done this, but make sure it's plugged directly into the box and not into a hub.
There's usually no singular silver bullet fix, rather a combo that just happens to trigger things right, which only makes it more frustrating.
I know that I've seen that windows 7 comes with its own set of challenges (they work so hard to make it 'user friendly' that I find it's so automatic that it lacks the control to make it do what you want it to do rather than what they think you want to do)
Unfortunately, unless you have iOS5.0+ you can't update it without a computer.

I cannot restore my iPhone in iTunes, have tried everything! Please help

Last night I succesfully connected my iPhone to iTunes, updated to current software and bought a few new songs...all ok. In the iPhone summary it showed my details and serial number of the iPhone.
Just as it was finishing the updates it said that my iPhone could not be found and needed to be restored as it was in recovery mode, when I clicked on the relevant box it said the iPhone could not be located and there was an error 1611. All the details in my summary now showed n/a.
My iphone screen is stuck on the 'connect to iTunes' symbol and no amount of holding down the button/home screen will re-set. Cannot turn the phone on or off, have tried recharging with a different plug in...nothing.
I have done all checks on my pc, re-installed iTunes, DFU...absolutely everything that the internet tells you to do!
I called Apple and they said it was a hardware issue and would cost between £120 - £200 to repair.
If anyone has any ideas...please help!
Thank you
Jo

Is your phone jailbroken or illegitimately unlocked? Or better yet running a custom version of iOS?
And for anyone else who stumbles upon this:
Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.

I am stuck on the wrong resolution and have tried everything. Please help.

My Mac Mini is stuck on the wrong resolution, and I have tried resetting my Mac's PRAM, I tried booting into safe mode, and I tried resetting the SMC, but none fixed the problem.

Never mind. I should've done this before, but I had to get the Apple Support people to call me. Since none of the other ways to fix the resolution worked. I just had to get to Displays in System Preferences by using the keyboard, and then I had to change the settings using the keyboard as well.
