I had to reactivate channels why, wifi or cable which is better

I had to reactivate some channels what would cause this and would it be better to use a Internet cable instead of wifi to stop buffering

What channels are you referring to. Buffering will usually be caused by interference and there are ways to combat it, however using an ethernet cable will be more reliable.

  • Has anybody else had the problem with the wifi option being greyed out? I need to know how to fix it??

    I recently updated my phone software to iOS 6.1.3 and for the first couple of weeks, it was ok. but then until monday, the option to turn on the wi-fi has been greyed out so I can't turn my phone's wi-fi on which means I have to keep using my 3G coverage which will eventually cost me a fortune if I don't get the wi-fi greyed out problem sorted out as soon as possible. If anybody could help me with this problem (without having to take it apart or putting it into the freezer) please let me know as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    I have seen a few searches that indicate some people have had success by changing their wifi security settings.  Using none (not recommended) or using WPA2 with a strong pass phrase (longer than 8 characters) seems to work for everyone I've talked to.  I've not had this issue myself on any of my devices (2 iPhone 4, 2 iPhone 5, 2 iPad 2, all running iOS 6.1.3, and 2 iPod Touch 3rd Gen running iOS 5.1.1), but then again, my home wifi has had a strong pasphrase, and WPA2 for 7-8 years now.  I beleive that some people have had luck with performing a reset of network settings (but others have not, and claimed that it actually made things worse some how).  Some have had luck performing a device restore in iTunes, while others have claimed that did nothing but cause them to lose everything. 
    I know there is so much wifi congestion in my neighborhood that it is hard to find a channel that doesn't already have 2-3 routers using it.  It is possible that resetting your wifi router might help.  I know that when my iPhone wouldn't connect to my wireless network, it would usually clear up if I restarted the router.

  • I have the iPad 2 16GB, bought it in August 2011, I worked perfectly but in mid-August 2012 I took her to the store because the microphone did not work reviewed and changed me, but to my surprise that the new iPad had the problem is disconnected WIFI sign

    I have the iPad 2 16GB, bought it in August 2011, I worked perfectly but in mid-August 2012 I took her to the store because the microphone did not work reviewed and changed me, but to my surprise that the new iPad had the problem is disconnected WIFI signal I have to be glued to the router, and I did everything he says is supported by the Apple and all other pages and forums regarding this problem is not solved and always disconnects when connected always disconnects again!! passing will be settled as no longer factory warranty although it has neither the three months I renewed new, please help because the investment has been great and I can not use only as "a mirror" I'm waiting a true solution, thanks ....

    This does help me because I am pondering on wether to buy an airport extreme to solve my ipad 2 connection woes.  I have an extremely old router dLink 524....but I have NEVER had any problems with it at all ever.  My xbox connected great to it and netflix ran flawless through my xbox.....now I have an ipad2 and an apple tv and they are BOTH having horrible connection problems.  I have read most of the forums on how to fix it by changing the settings on my router but since mine is so old I couldn't do some of the suggested solutions.  So here I am debating on whether to spend all this $ on an airport extreme?  I am just hoping that if I go and purchase this, my connectivity issues problems will go away like yours did.  Just wondering if you have ATV as well and if the AE solved its problems?  I have read about AE solving ipad2 wifi problems, I'm just hoping it will solve my ATV as well.

  • TS2988 I had to reset my phone and I only have one of my ringtones I had 4.. Why'd it delete 3 and not the last one and now I can't get em back without paying for them again!!! What the **** is up with that??

    Yup, your question and Diane's answer helped me also. Tho' I had had problems before getting into the iTunes store I always managed to find a way. Today they had me blocked cold with the "Update to 10" advert no matter what I did. Other questioners are being told, incorrectly as it turns out, that they have to update their OS to accomodate iTunes 10 and upgrade to iTunes 10. I did the download which did not take up much more room on my crowded old hard drive and now I'm back in business.

    Word documents don't have a fixed page layout; Word reflows freely if it wants. This isn't normally a problem unless things like typing page numbers is done; avoid that.

  • Hi, why wifi option dosnt seen in personal hotspot in ios5

    hi, why wifi option dosnt seen in personal hotspot in ios5

    This worked for me on iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.2.
    For some reason I need to turn the personal hotspot off twice, maybe because my iPad was connected.
    When I turned the Personal Hotspot on with WiFi off I was prompted whether I wanted to turn WiFi on or just use BlueTooth or USB.
    It's good to have both options. In a public place I'd prefer Bluetooth. In my office where I'm streaming to a BlueTooth speaker I prefer WifFi. Phone can't handle streaming and hotspot if hotspot data usage is too high.

    what version of iPhoto do you have? If you have iPhoto '11 you can update to version 9.5 for free  --  if you have an older version you must purchase the upgrade to iPhoto '11

    From what I understand from this post, yes you do qualify for a replacement.

  • Which is better to sync, wifi or iCloud?

    I heard that you shouldn't sync with itunes and icloud.  Which is better, and how do you set that up?

    Where did you hear you shouldn't use these?
    You're comparing apples and oranges. Wifi sync is a way to wirelessly sync with iTunes on your Mac or PC. This includes content that you've purchased, content that you've ripped from your own CD collection, as well as things like playlists, song ratings, etc. This is just to replace plugging in your USB cable as you've always had to do in the past.
    iCloud is a way to store some of your content on Apple's servers and retrieve it on any iCloud enabled device. Note this includes only content you've purchased (music, movies, tv shows) or content you've created using iCloud-enabled apps like Pages, Numbers, or Keynote. iCloud doesn't let you sync "metadata" such as playlists, song ratings, etc. if you add a song to a playlist on your iPhone, it won't show up on that same playlist on your iPad, Mac, or PC because you use iCloud. It only gets moved on those other devices after you sync. iCloud also provides a means to keep calendars, contacts, notes, and reminders the same across multiple devices. Finally, iCloud let's you backup your device to the cloud instead of to your Mac or PC, which is handy feature as you don't have to worry about losing your backup should your Mac or PC fail.
    You can choose to use iCloud and not wifi sync, or use wifi sync and not iCloud, or use both or use neither. They are independent of one another and provide different functions.
    Personally, I use both. I wirelessly sync so my iDevices are up to date, and I take advantage of iCloud for my backups, calendar, contacts, etc.

  • Why do lightning cables break so easily?

    To cut to the chase, my third lightning cable broke today. I plug it in and nothing happens. This has happened with all three the same way and it seems they just keep breaking faster and faster.
    And don't tell me it's my phone because it charges fine on my ihome.
    And don't tell me it's my fault because I'm fought with the cable or something.
    I take pristine care of my cables
    What I wanna know is if there's any more durable third party chargers out there?? Or a better way to prevent this from happening?
    Because these chumps at apple obviously either don't know what they're doing or they're trying to scam us with chargers like they do with adding loads of "other data" to our iPhones.
    Now let me go head over to my local apple store to shell out 30 dollars for another lightning cable that's gonna break in 3 weeks.

    I've had my iPhone 5 since launch day and I am still using my original cable.  I have purchased a couple extra cables so I can keep one at work, and one at my nightstand, and they are all just fine, even though they are all used almost every day.
    My wife got her iPhone 5 in November of 2012 (after she accidentally dropped her iPhone 4 in the toilet).  I have had to take about 5 or 6 cables back to Apple for replacement for her.  She tends to plug her cable into the phone, then rest the phone down on the cable causing it to make ahard bend with the weight of the phone resting right on the cable where it comes out of the phone connector.  Every one of her cables that has failed, had broken the fine wires inside right where she stress bends them.  The last time I took cables back to the Apple Store, the clerk there mentioned to me that under his interpretation of the rules, the cables are only covered under the 1 year limited warranty that comes with the iPhone, and are not included in the AppleCare+ extension.  It was no problem, because I had a proof of purchase for a cable that was less than a year old, so they used its one year warranty to replace that bad cable.
    I would say that the cables are fine, as long as you don't heavily stress them right there at that connection, or probably the other end of the cable as well.  As a way around this for her in her car, I bought a decent cable with a micro-USB connector on one end, then I bought her the micro-USB to Lightning adapter, and she uses that in her car now.  That one has lasted her about 8 or 9 months and is still working...

  • I have bought a new macbook pro 13 retina. I had an apple id with my iPhone 4 which I stopped using a month ago. Now I am trying to download the apps, notes and contacts onto my mac but it is not happening? Any help will be gratefully accepted

    I have bought a new macbook pro retina 13. I am not too familiar with Mac yet. I had an apple account with my iphone 4 which I stopped using a month ago. Now when I was trying to download the apps from that account  but I dont know how to do this and I am unable to do so. I would be grateful if anyone can advise me with regards to this?

    You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
    The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
    The store on your MacBook is only for Macs.
