IPad 2 ios 8 does not connect to wi fi, any help?

Up dated to iOS 8 in late September, all was fine until October 20th, now won't connect to wi-fi. It's trying to connect but gets nowhere.
Have tried resetting, several times, sometimes it tries to reconnect, other times I can't even switch the wi-fi on - the slider just does not react to touch - and once in a while it picks up and recognises the router, and connects for maybe 20 minutes, but then dies again. But mostly it just sits there.
Does anyone have a fix please?

Here's a link to an Apple support page for troubleshooting Wi-Fi.
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
The problem can be frustrating. One thing I would do is determine if the problem exists for all Wi-Fi networks or just yours. Does the iPad have any problems connecting at places like your local library or coffee shop? If the iPad connects in those locations without any issues the problem with your connectivity at home lies with your home network.

Ipad mini does not connect SOME wifi

My iPad mini does not connect some wifi. I tried all instructions like resetting settings, on-off router, manuel configuration but it is still same. I am using same router at my home and with same confiqs, it is connecting there, other iPads, iPhones are also connecting to wifi here, It also connects some other wifi's.
I've read that there is no solution, I have to change it.
Do you have any other idea? Because here-Turkey- it is not easy to do it like USA.

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

Hey X300X,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with iMessages. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
You may also want to reset your network settings:
Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: this will delete any network related settings (saved Wi-Fi passwords, etc), it will not erase any content from your device.
Thanks,

I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it?

Do you have a backup? If so you could try restoring from that. Anything you created since the backup was made will be lost.
These are the basic troubleshooting steps
Troubleshooting
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears then let go.
Backup, reset, restore on icloud or itunes or restore as new.
Place the phone into recovery mode by doing this
If this fails to fix the problem make an appointment and visit and Apple store or an authorised service provider

TS1398 My ipad mini does not connect to certain routers, apple's advise is to configure the router. But I bought the Ipad mini to travel and wish to connect to hotspots worldwide! what to do?

Hi there,
I just bought an ipad mini, but have problems connecting to some hotspots/routers. while my other normal ipad connects everywhere!! I cannot configure these routers at these hotspots. So what to do?
hope someone can help me out.
Warm regards,
Moon

hi Timothy,
i have googled this issue, and it seems that a lot of people had the same problem with the ipad mini and they all got replacements. however I live in Curaçao and I also have applecare for this product. Where do I send it to to get a replacement. I have another Ipad, which doesn't have any connection problem at all at none of the hotspots. So it must be de ipad mini. I bought it in London UK a couple of weeks ago!
It really is not an option to have to configure routers at hotspots wherever I travel. And I did not buy it to use only at home!

I have just installed Acrobat 9 @ version 9.0.0 on my Windows laptop. I want to perform the updates to 9.5.5, but Adobe does not provide active links. Any help?

I just got off of "chat" with someone with a very long and unpronounceable name, and he told me that the download links I have found for the various update for Acrobat 9 are no longer active. I already knew that... My question is: where can I get them, then? The files existed at one time, and they must be somewhere... Any help?

Unfortunately, it worked very easily for me - so I have no troubleshooting suggestions. I can, however, post in more detail what I found and what I did...
When I followed the link above, I found a listing of all versions of Adobe revs from 3.x thru 11.x - I clicked on 9.x. In there was listing showing the various 9.x revs: 9.0, 9.1, 9.1.1, 9.1.2, etc. Inside each of these, the next page just shows a "misc" folder. After clicking on that, you finally get to the .msp file that you are looking for. In my case, when I clicked on a .msp file to download it my computer asked me if I was really, really sure because these kinds of files can harm my computer. I said OK, and never encountered any problems.
It is important that you install the files in the correct order, and skip the right ones. Also, some of the folders contain more than one .msp file - so it is important that you choose the right one... I found this list and followed it:
AcroProStdUpd910_T1T2_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd911_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd913_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd920_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd930_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd932_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd933_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd940_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd942_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd945_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd946_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd950_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd951_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd952_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd953_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd955_all_incr.msp
Most of these require a restart of the computer, which I immediately did. At some point (I wasn't paying attention, since I didn't expect it), Adobe Updater took over after a restart and did the rest of the upgrade in one fell swoop. (I think it was around 9.4.2 or so...)
Hope that helps!

My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi. The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1. The TV displays the Apple Menu. The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
Apple software: 7.1 (7003)
Apple TV: Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video. I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2. Can you help please?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.
If you are still having problems, the following article(s) may help you.
