IPad 2 is losing G3 connection

After iOS 8.1 came out I recovered my iPad 2 as new because it was awful slow after installing 8.0.2. It is still too slow but on my last trip I had to realize that I lose cellular connection all the time. My iPhone 5s can access internet (same provider, same place) but my iPad says not connectet to internet. Of course I prefer typing on the iPad (even if typing is worse now than on 7.1.2).
I did reboots and soft resets but this didn't really help. - I want my good old iPad 2 (7.1.2) back. At home I use wi-fi. This connection works OK so far.

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

IPad mini keeps losing wifi connection

Since yesterday my iPad mini keeps losing the wifi connection, especially when playing video on YouTube. Stopping the You Tube app and starting Safari seems to restart it temporarily but only for a short while. I've tried reinstalling the YouTube app, but it then happened playing You Tube via Safari. I've reset my router and deleted all cookies, browsing history and rebooted the iPad. Even done a complete new install of the iPad after the iOS update failed (grrrr) and deleted everything but this issue was happening before the update and after the rebuild.
Any Ideas or help gratefully accepted.
Thanks
Bob

IPad (3rd gen) losing wifi connection during BBC iPlayer downloads

Hi,
I am having a strange, app-specific problem with my iPad 3rd generation (wifi only, 64GB) running iOS 6.1.3.
When I use the BBC iPlayer app (version 2.0.5.33) to download a TV show to watch offline, my iPad almost always loses wifi connection a minute or two into the download, and it stays disconnected until I go into Settings > Wifi and select my home network again. If I resume the download in iPlayer, the same issue will typically recur within a minute or two.
I am not having any other connectivity problems with this iPad, and other sizeable downloads (e.g. from iTunes, from the App Store etc) are not having the same issue. Similarly, I can stream live BBC iPlayer content without issue - it is just the iPlayer downloads that seem to create this condition (which then effects the whole iPad / all other running apps).
I have tried to "forget this network", resetting network settings and restoring my entire iPad - none of these have stopped the issue. Interestingly, during restore of the iPad I received ugly BIOS-esque messages relating to AppleBCMWLANCore, which have disappeared after a hard reboot (power + home buttons together) - does this indicate a problem with the iPad hardware itself?
Anyone else experiencing something similar? Any suggestions to fix this? Or am I dependent on the BBC updating the app?
Cheers,
James

Hey James,
I would try out standard third party application troubleshooting and see if that resolves the Wi-Fi issue. :
1. Update your device software
2. Check for app updates
3. Install another app from the App Store
4. Restart the application
5. Restart your device
6. Reinstall the affected application
For more info on each step, check out the full article:
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
If none of those steps work, then you would want to contact the developer of the application for further assistance.

David

IPad (3rd gen) losing wifi connection during large downloads

Hi,
I am having a problem with my iPad 3rd generation (wifi only, 64GB) running iOS 6.1.3.
When I download large files (e.g. via the iTunes app, the BBC iPlayer app, The Economist app), my iPad almost always loses wifi connection a minute or two into the download, and often stays disconnected until I go into Settings > Wifi and select my home network again. If I resume the download in relevant application, the same issue will typically recur within a minute or two.
I am not having any other problems with this iPad - general internet browsing / streaming of video has been fine. I originally thought the issue was only with the BBC iPlayer app, but sadly have found it to be more widespread.
I have tried to "forget this network", resetting network settings, restoring my entire iPad (twice), and resetting all settings - none of these have stopped the issue. Interestingly, during the first restore of the iPad I received ugly BIOS-esque messages relating to AppleBCMWLANCore, which disappeared after a hard reboot (power + home buttons together), and did not recur on the 2nd restore.
Anyone else experiencing something similar? Any suggestions to fix this?
Cheers,
James

Locate the iPad as close as possible to your router.
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

IPad Air, freezing & losing wifi connection

Have had the iPad Air (128GB) since December 2013. Up until the recent security update (7.0.6) has worked as needed.
In the past few weeks performance has been terrible beginning with hard resets that were not initiated by me resulting in a loss of all emails (thankfully I do not rely on the iPad as my main source of sending and receiving). What is lost to me was all emails sent from the iPad. This has not reoccurred.
What has been a constant is constant freezing of the sceen. Unable to swipe or initiate anything for upwards of minutes. Hitting the home button does nothing until it un-freezes. Additionally, wifi signals are being lost all to frequently where the iPad is not able to even see the network that other Apple products are on.
I first blamed the network (restarted it multiple times) yet every other apple product had no issues (Apple TV to iMac's to other older iPads, etc.), then the internet source (nope).
It seems every 30 minutes my iPad is claiming there is no network or is freezing.
For the most part this is a light use item with 100GB's of free space as I write. I use it mostly for reading and airplay and my last resort is to restore it as it is an issue.
Any others with similar issues or even a solution.
Thanks in advance.

IPad Keeps Losing Wifi Connection??

Hi,
About 2 days ago, my iPad 2 began losing wifi connection. I would have to tap "Forget this network" and then wait a bit and then tap on the network again and type in the password. After that, the iPad would gain wifi again until about 5-20 minutes later, it loses wifi connection AGAIN. Sometimes when I did that it still didn't even work! And it also bothers me because it still has the wifi sign in the top left corner of my ipad screen, even if the wifi connection is not working. This has happened continuously throughout the past 2 days. Sometimes, the wifi would work for a good amount of time before it was gone again, and sometimes it loses connection after like 3 minutes. But all the other electronics in my house are perfectly fine, it's just my iPad 2 that's been doing this.
I tried to tap "forget all network settings" and then restart my ipad, but that didn't help. I'm not sure if it's the iPad's problem (since all the other electronics work) or if it's the wifi.
Please help! This is very annoying.
(And i have a new update which is 7.1.2, but that's been there for a pretty long time bc I always forget to update it. But I don't think that's the problem.)

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.

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.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad?

When i tried to download iOS8 on my iPad Mini it told me that I needed to connect my iPad to iTunes, I have done that and now it says I need to restore my iPad. How can I get my iPad working without losing everything on my iPad? I don't want to lose my apps and photos!
Help would be much appreciated!

If you are getting the connect to iTunes screen then it's too late to take a new backup and/or copy anything off it. Prior to starting the update did you take a backup, either to the cloud and/or to your computer's iTunes ? If not then have you recently taken a backup that might have your photos and apps content/settings in it ?
As long as the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them via the Purchased tab in the App Store app (and the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes), and if the apps store their content on a server/cloud service then you might be able to get their content back from that - if they store their content on the device then you will need to have a backup.
For our photos you could try doing a search for programs that claim to be able to recover content from a device - I haven't used any so I can't suggest one.

My iMac keeps on losing internet connection. Webpages get stuck after a minute or so. If I check the internet connection via diagnostics it seems to work just fine. Others, like the iPad use the same wifi connection and never fail. What can I do?

Running 10.6.8 on Intel dual core iMac, it keeps on losing internet connection. Webpages get stuck after a minute or so. If I check the internet connection via diagnostics it seems to work just fine. Others, like the iPad use the same wifi connection and never fail. What can I do?

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

IPad 2 losing 3G connection?

Was working fine on Friday, but Saturday, 3G connection hasn't been working. Keeps cycling between searching, no service, searching finding the network, but when I try to use it it stalls, and says no data connection or couldn't activate data network. Using three micro sim, tried rebooting and resetting network settings. Have iOS 4.3.3

These things do not resolve the problem, the only way I get a signal now is to reset the network settings, I get a signal for a short while and then when I don't use it for a while (ie if iPad is off) the 3G connection is gone again. This is a problem that has only occurred since I made the mistake of installing ios8 (now 8.0.2). If I could go back to 7 I would! It is pathetic that Apple has not addressed this issue, I would have been buying an iPhone this week to replace an aging blackberry but have put that off now and considering something else because it is hard to have confidence in a product that just isn't fixed.

Can't re-order my queue on Netflix and keep losing the connection

I'm having so much trouble with Netflix! I can't re-order my queue, I keep losing the connection, and it's painfully slow. Is Netflix known to be unstable on iPad? Other internet connecitons seem to be fine.

I rarely have problems on it - I do occasionally have drops in video quality, but nothing consistent. It does require a very strong and stable network connection, and I also wonder if they have periodic "crush time" incidents on their end, considering the rapid growth of Netflix streaming.
Updating the queue is a pain on it - you can't do it on the app, and have to go to their website. I generally find it easier to do on a computer.

Losing internet connection with youtube in safari

I keep losing Network connection after i use YouTube in safari. Need to restart iPad to get connection again. Anyone an solution? I Re installed already 2 times but without any luck.

Use the you tube app that came with the pad, and see if the problem happens there are well.
Do you internet on other apps or browsing? I think you have an internet issue, not a you tube issue.

Losing 3G connectivity after upgrading to IOS 8.0.2

my iPad is now losing connectivity frequently after the upgrade and I get a "no service" and have to restart my ipad for the 3G to reconnect. I don't know how many times had to do this since the upgrade, it's really annoying as the restart takes a while to load.
anyone having this problem? What is Apple doing about this?

Hello 712biggar,
Sorry to hear that you are consistently losing your cellular connection. Lets see if we can get it working. I know that you have tried restarting your Ipad, but have you also tried the additional steps in the article below. Check them out and let me know if it helps or not.
