IOS devices not always available on WiFi

Hi and tnxs for reading.
In both my houses, with 2 different wifi routers, it often happens that my iTunes cannot see on WiFi my iPhone and iPad, even if these are connected to the same wifi aswell. i am talking about Mountain Lion with last iTunes version, and iOS devices with iOS6.
Sometimes it is enough to switch iOS devices off and on or router off then on but the thing is not so standard.
Any idea of the issue?
I am wondering, if I use an airport extreeme or time capsule or airport express instead of a standard router (I have US robotics and fastweb) do you think it will be working better?
tnxs

Answering myself to help future readers Basically, connecting the receiver to a wired Ethernet connection solved everything...Do not use WiFi if you want to stream stuff (or perhaps only if you have an open AV Cabinet with perfect signal strength...). Moving to a wired Ethernet connection I can now: - Start Google Cast irrespective of the state of the amp, the target appears on my phone. It automatically switches to the Receiver App display I had to start before.- Spotify Connect is available and also automatically switches input and works great. So all good!

TS1538 iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows doesn't fix my issue

I followed the instructions in this link but it has not fixed my problem. After I have done the screenshots and go into the device manager, my iphone is still not recognized in any of the devices. Any suggestions?

Hey there andrijfrommississauga,
I have an article here for you that will help you troubleshoot this issue with iTunes not recognizing your iOS devices:

ITunes sharing on ipad is not always available.

iTunes sharing on ipad is not always available. I have a windows pc and shared is enabled in iTunes and iPad. All signed. One day I see the share option. Next day, no matter what I do including disabling the firewall, no shared library. Help!
This worked consistently on OS 4.3 but only once in OS 5.0

Click once on the sleep/wake button to ignore the caller and the call will eventually
go to voicemail. Click twice to send the caller directly to email.

Why is iMessage not always available

My other half sent me a txt today, his phone say,s delivered, I never got it. I a guessing it was via iMessage. Why is it that iMessage is not always available?

It sounds as though your phone message may not be properly registered with iMessage.
Go to Settings > Messages and turn iMessage OFF, then turn it back on again.
Make sure the message "iMessages can be sent between iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch" appears.

IOS devices not loading shared media library to the end

I am having this problem for some time by now - but it did not appear shortly after any iOS update! Now what is the trouble?
I am using my iPad 3 and my iPhone 5 (newest iOS on both) alongside an Apple TV 3, a Mac mini Server and a MacBook Pro (newest OS X). The Server hosts my media library, private sharing activated by using my Apple ID. Sometimes (not always) I am sharing my library with the same Apple ID on My MacBook Pro to my home network, too. Both Macs can see and use the other Mac's shared library without any troubles - so this works. The Apple TV 3 also can connect to both libraries (though I am using the Server's much more often than the MacBook Pro's).
Neither on my iPad nor on my iPhone I can get the home shared media library loaded in complete by using the apps
"Music" and "Video".
The small loading circle symbol just stops after about 50 % and then nothing happens furthermore no matter how long I am waiting:
The only thing I can do afterwards is to force quit "Music" and / or "Videos" app, restart those and trying again, still leaving me the already described 50 % and nothing else.
What is strange about that:
"Remote" app to Apple TV and my Macs and "AirPlay" to the Apple TV just work fine. "Remote" app connects to my Apple TV and my Macs without any troubles. But "Videos" and "Music" can not load the shared library to complete. It does not matter to which Mac I am connecting (to be more exact: to which shared library). All iOS devices "see" the shared libraries, seem to connect to them at the beginning but just to refuse to load more than 50 % - and doing anything else afterwards. To make it even more strange both iOS devices were able to load everything to the end some time ago. I am not sure if there was an iOS update available in between anymore, but there definetly was an iTunes update in between!
So what I already tried (not in that order described here):
Stopping and restarting home sharing on my Macs using the initial Apple ID account.
Stopping and restarting home sharing on both Macs using another Apple ID account (and adapting the iOS devices info accordingly).
Using different Apple ID accounts on both Macs at the same time for home sharing.
Logged off and re-logged back into iTunes Store Account on my Macs and iOS devices.
Re-configured my sharing on my iOS devices using those two already mentioned accounts.
Re-initialization of the complete iTunes libray on my Mac mini Server (moving the .xml to the desktop, deleting the .itl from the iTunes folder, re-importing the .xml).
I think I have done some other steps in between, too but none of them fixes that problem. Please note: I am not using an Apple AirPort Extreme but my service provider's Modem / Router combination. I do not think the problem is located in that Modem / Router / Network connection as it once worked without any troubles. Maybe I will try to connect my AirPort Extreme to that Modem somewhat later to see if this fixes the problem.
Any help is highly appreciated!

Looks like I found a solution on my own...
After renaming my iTunes Mediatheque in the iTunes preferences window on my iTunes server hosted by a Mac mini all mi iOS devices were able to load my mediatheque in complete again. It took some time to get all the covers but no title is left over.
I found this solution by "accident" when I noticed too many devices used more or less the same name on my network.
Strange.

Enrolling iOS devices "not shown in Configuration Manager console"

After successfully enrolled my Windows RT I want to enroll my iOS devices (iPad 1 & iPhone 4). First step is completing the iOS configuration (uploading APN certificate). Next step I associated my devices by installing management
profiles (https://manage.microsoft.com). All my application appears when starting the Company Portal App but my device will not appear in my Configuration Manager admin console.
When I select the Support tile in the Company App it says "Name not yet available", I'm not sure if this is a normal behavior?
Any thoughts/pointers are welcome.

Patches and devices not always on the network

Hello, I have a question that for some reason I can't get sorted out in my mind.
How can I use SCCM to effectively patch devices such as laptops that are not always on the network. I am not talking patching through the Internet but I am talking about wanting those devices to patch with all past deployments when they connect to the
network. Specifically how do I configure the software available time, installation deadlines and maintenance windows. What is the accepted best practice out there to handle patching like this?
I am trying to fill the holes in our patching process and any help is appreciated.
Thanks

How many of you computers are left on all night? I would suggest with even WS, it will not be many, due to power management settings.
If they are left on then you are wasting lots of $$s on power, AC cooling costs, life span of the computer, etc. and these cost will be surprisingly high.
The point being is that MW and deploying software or SU will always be at odds with each other.
The trick is to empower you users. You do this by give your users 3-5 days to install the SU when it is best for them and if they don’t do it, the SU get applied at the deadline
with enough advance notice that they can save their work before any reboot happen.
It is always a balance act but it is hard for users/management to complain, when user are given DAYS to install something and the user don’t do it in time. There are a million
different way to “sell” this to both management and users so they see the benefit in empowering users.
Help the environment “Stay Green”
Reduce costs
Improved user satisfaction
Etc.

TS4062 My iOS devices not connecting to iTunes

I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1, iPod touch 4 with iOS 6.1.6 and first generation of iPad with iOS 5.1.1. All are fully updated. I keep this up to date at all times. I am using iTunes 11.1.5.5. I have had nothing but problems with iTunes connecting to them via wifi. I have tried over and over to get them working as they SHOULD for a few years now. I have gotten them to all connect a few times but then they will stop connecting again. I have tried over and over to remedy this and to be honest I'm sick of it. I am about to stop using iOS devices due to this. Anyone have any ideas how to remedy this?

I'll assume NAT is in use here.
Are your iOS devices using the same DHCP server, same network, same DNS server, and the same settings as your OS X systems? Do you have references to any other DNS servers in use here, or are all your systems using only your own local DNS server, with no references to other ISP or Google or off-network DNS servers?
Do your iOS devices have the necessary certificates loaded?   (Loading the certificates first, then the entitlements, is typical.)
Using .local is not something you want to tangle with here.
I'm going to assume you're obfuscating your domain here, as it's not likely you're using the (real and registered) domain "mydomain.net" here.   I'll also assume your local DNS is not using .local or .arpa as the domain name. (If you're obfuscating, please consider using example.com, example.org or example.net, as these are reserved for this and similar uses.)

IOS devices not connecting to Internet while MacBooks does

Hi,
I'm in the process of closing my Verizon Internet and testing a Comcast service. Before unplugging my Time Capsule from the Verizon adsl modem I made sure that all worked ok with the Comcast cable connection. My MacBook worked right away through Ethernet and so it did through wifi when plugging the TC to the Comcast modem. The problem came on our iOS devices, 2 iPhones and 2 iPads, as they did recognize the network but could not connect to Internet.
I called Comcast customer care but as expected they wash their hands as I have Internet on my computer...
Any advise? Is there something else I need to activate?
Thanks
Pablo

Change the names to short no spaces no special characters. For wireless and the TC.
Lock the wireless to on a/n - b/g
Then fix the channel for 2.4ghz.. 1, 6, 11
Those measures usually get the iphone working .. ipad should work also.

Photos taken from iOS device not showing up on Macbook??????

I have photo streaming turned "ON" on my iPhone 5, iPad Air and Macbook Pro. For some reason or another I have been having problems getting the pictures to show up on my Mac. The only time I need for this to happen automatically is when I am listing on eBay. For example I took a picture of the item that I want to list from my iPhone 5. Within a few minutes the picture shows up my iPad Air. I am using my Macbook Pro to list the items. It took over an hour for one picture to come over. I called Apple and without having a device that is under the 1 year contract or Applecare they push this support forum on you or pay $19.95 for them to walk you through it.
Before anyone replies, I have made sure that I am signed in under my apple ID on all three devices and have photo stream selected as well. All of my devices are updated to the latest software. Being that I am having problems with my Mac it is version 10.9.4 running Mavericks. If anyone has any definite answers to this problem I am having I would appreciate all the advice I can get.

No offense, but there are not definitive answers when it comes to iCloud.
Reset iCloud.
On your iOS devices, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos then switch Photo Stream off then back on.
On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Photos then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

Movies Purchased on iTunes via iOS Devices not showing up in iTunes on my MacBook Pro

I have some 40 movies that I have purchased through iTunes on my iPhone. They all show up on my iOS devices as well as my Apple TV but only 8 of them show up on iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I have read threads from other users that found a resolution to their problem by "unhiding" the movies through iTunes in the Cloud but my account only shows Manage Devices & iTunes Match, so that didn't help unfortunately. I am runing the latest version of Mountain Lion and iTunes and I have gone to "Check for Available Downloads" but a window just pops up saying "All purchases have been downloaded for this Apple ID". Does anyone have any ideas or guidance on what I could or should do?

Hello RepsolRider
Go to the iTunes Store > Purchases, and then you should be able to see your purchases. Click the cloud icons to download your purchases. Also go to iTunes Preferences, go to the Store tab and make sure that Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases is checked.
Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

HT1386 iOS devices not appearing in iTunes Devices on Windows XP Pro PC

I used to have a Mac. Now I'm trying to sync my iOS devices with my new-to-me Windows XP computer, and they are not showing up in iTunes Devices. A Found New Hardware Wizard pops up, asking for drivers. I've tried it with my iPhone and my iPad. I have Windows XP Professional, and the latest version of iTunes 10. My iPad 2 has iOS 6, but the iPhone is one of the older models with iOS 4.
The second part of my problem is that I'm trying to Transfer my Purchases from both the devices to the iTunes Library before I sync them, so I don't lose all my old music and photos.

Yeah, I've tried 5 out of the 7 steps shown in their troubleshooter. The sixth step is one that is a major pain and I doubt would fix the problem: Reinstall iTunes. I know enough about PCs to feel about 80% confident that this step would not fix the issue. Plus, it's a major hassle with re-adding music to the collection. Nevertheless, I will look at it as a last ditch effort.
The seventh step is extremely vague and doesn't really help. "There might be a software conflict." Fine, but there's no way to find any such conflict, if one even exists in the first place, without a heavy dose of trial-and-error, several hours of time, dozens of reboots, and the patience of Job.
However, they do list some other steps that I'll try when I get home, such as making sure certain services are installed and running. I'll post my results here. Thanks, wiclee.

IOS devices not mounting

Recently my iMac seems not to notice when I connect any of my iOS devices via the USB cable. The devices do recharge when connected, so it's not the cable. But the device won't appear either in the iTunes or Finder sidebars. How do I troubleshoot this?

http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/assistant/ had all my answers. Problem solved!

IOS devices not visible in Administration console

I just watched someone access our Filr site from iPhone app. But an hour later, when I log in to Filr as admin and go to Administration Console > Mobile Devices, I don't see that iPhone. Android devices do appear in the list, but no iPhones are listed. Are others seeing iPhones in the list?
I'm running Filr 1.1.0.653.

We saw that iOS devices only show up when they have the Filr 1.1 App installed. Using Filr 1.0.1 app, they do not show up.

IOS Devices not showing in iTunes

I'm running the latest version of Mac OS X (10.8.2) and the latest version of iTunes (11.0.1). I haven't had to connect any of my devices for some time (as I sync my iPhone via Wifi) but I want to wipe out my daighter's iPad and I can't seem to get iTunes to detect the device. I have also tried plugging in other devices (iPhone & iPod Touch) and none of them are being detected by iTunes. I have gone through the troubleshooting steps but nothing has worked - I've restarted the Mac, restarted the iOS devices, etc.
Any other ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Just tried that option but got about 20 error messages firing off at the very end of the process (every time I clicked "OK" I would get another one immediately).
The error messages were all a variation of this:
<<The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleMobileDevice.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.>>
The last portion (AppleMobileDevice.*) was replaced with each error message - many of which were about printers.
