I cant get my ipad to connect to wifi
i have purchased new i pad and can not get it to connect to wifi and help
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Cant get my iPad to connect to iTunes, please help
I connected my iPad2 to the computer (MacMini version 10.5.8) , opened iTunes and got the message that for an unknown reason my iPad does not connect.
Anyone know how to fix this please?I finally got a number for IT services. When I phoned up they didnt have a clue why it wasnt working, they're honestly useless! I was monkeying about with it last night using my lapto at the same time to find server addresses etc.
Then it looked like it was going to work, when I went into safari it redirected me to the login page like it does on my laptop. But then decided it didnt want to work saying "the page cant be displayed because there is no secure connection to the server".
I searched this on the support community and I went with the advice to delete all cookies, set them to accept from visited, and restart my iPad.
Now when I restart my iPad it trys to connect to the wireless network it comes up with a page saying "Login" at the top of the browser, so im assuming that is the login redirect page. However it displays nothing on the page!
Going with you guys advice I assumed that the page must use java. But when I looked at the source of the page on my laptop it didnt have anything java in it, just javascript, which Im lead to believe is totally different.
Sorry for being a pain but IT services here are shocking. -
i just recieved an ipad2, 32gb, i cant figure out how to get it to connect to my wireless internet.. it is thru my cell carrier, i am suppose to be able to use up to 5 devices with it at the same time.. can someone tell me what i am missing.
You can not install it.
Only apps from the official Apple App Store can be installed. -
How can I get my iPad to connect to wifi in rooms other than the room router is in? It used to connect from every room & now connection is either intermittent or completely gone.

Most up to date operating system & software. Not a problem with Internet provider- already investigated that.Try this:
1. Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears
2.Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings -
I have a message on my ipad saying ipad is not backed up. back ups happen when this i pad is plugged in locked and connected to wi-fi. cant get on ipad and dont know what to do as i am new to ipad. can someone help?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Hold both Power and Home buttons for 10 seconds until your device restarts, so you will be able to use it again.
The Power button is the one that you use to put your iPad in sleep mode (at the top of the iPad), and the Home button is at the bottom of the screen -
I cant get my ipad 2 out of recovery. The apple icon stays on and nothing happens. I tried restoring it through Itunes but it comes up with a 3194 error code. I have the latest Itunes being 10.6.1.7 and the latest windows update.Can someone please help?
Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -

Have you confirmed that the app supports AirPlay? If it doesn't, then you'll have to connect via screen mirroring. See:

Hello, waynemclno1.
Thank you for the question. Try the steps in the article below to troubleshoot your iPod touch not being recognized in iTunes. I would recommend seeing the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.

I have the error message "Not enough storage. Cannot backup, not enough backup space in ICloud . . . ", but now the "close" and "settings" buttons don't respond and I cant get the IPad to open so I can go change settings. What do I do?
For a "hard" restart of your iPad just press the home and power button at the same time and hold it for at least 10-15 sec. until it restarts.

Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.
