Ipad 2 signal dropping after visit to genius bar??

How is that possible.  I was concerned about the bleeding that I never addressed and now my wifi signal drops.  I've tried to restore, turn off wifi, change to airplane mode and

Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
Then restart your iPad>    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
BTW, Airplane Mode disables Wi-Fi >  iOS: Understanding airplane mode
If nothing above helped try here >  Apple - Support - iPad - Wi-Fi

    Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

    This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
    I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
    Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
    Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
    Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
    Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
    Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
    It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
    Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
    Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
    Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
    Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

  • My ISP requires a http login. I can use the iPad fine if I am logged in on a PC connected to the same wifi network, but if I login on safari on my ipad, the connection drops after some time.. any workaround?

    I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
    Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
    Best of luck.

  • My iPhone 4s plug for the headphone is not responsive unless I push the headphone in hard and hold it there. Is this a defect? Do I have to visit the Genius Bar?

    My iPhone 4s socket for the headphones does not connect with the headphones' plug unless I push it in hard and hold it there. If I take my finger away, the outside world hears my music, but I can't hear it through the headphones. Is this a defect in the socket? Do I have to visit the Genius Bar?  (I think I do, which would be pretty disappointing for a phone that's only a week old.)

    I am having the same problem. Just got my phone 5 days ago! Just tried headphones tonight after I got Netflix and Pandora apps. I'm pretty peeved... tried 4 different pairs of earbuds and headphones. Going on a work trip in a week and really wanted to be able to use this new toy! Seems like it's a hardware problem. Did you get anywhere, cindyao?

  • Nokia E6 - Signal Drop after every call

    Hi,
    I have started to face this problem for the last 8-10 days.
    After every call is completed there is a signal drop for about 30-40 seconds. It drops to zero & then comes back to full strength again.
    I have updated the phone software to the latest version and still have the same problem.
    There is no problem if I use my sim card in any other phone.
    Thanks for your solutions in advance.
    Cheers
    KD
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hey,
    Thanks a ton...working for me so far for the last 3 calls...
    If only you had replied earlier ...it would have saved me from going to the Nokia Service Center, who told me to change my SIM card...which I did as well with no solution. LOL
    I wonder where the nokia moderators are ..not even one reply for almost 3 days now..
    anyways ..thanks a ton buddy
    Cheers

  • 5.0.1 constant signal drop after every 2 minutes

    As soon as I updated the software in 4s to 5.0.1 the neverending trouble started. There are constant signal drop resulting communication lost and despite the signal bar showing full strength. can any one help, Have already triesd the SIM PIN option can any one help? would really appreciate it

    mAN?
    with that type of config. you have? you should not have any problems.
    especially with the intervideo program 'cause it captures in mpg and it is a very loose coding (better said no coding at all)
    try turning the ht off through bios
    or try this prog.

    maybe sp2 is causing problems

    did you try recording on both (4) of your hdd's?

  • IPhone 6 Plus Camera - Smudged Photos - A visit to Genius Bar

    I have been using iPhone 6 Plus for more than 2 months. All through the phone is great for reading and battery life. Now the major problem I have been facing is the still photos taken with little bit of zoom are also getting smudged. The results are so bad they are a downgrade from iPhone 5. It is disheartening to see such poor quality software or image processing on such a hyped Camera Hardware. Coming to the point of solution I have visited the Genius Bar at Hillsdale Shopping Center San Mateo on 01/14/15. Following are the lame diagnosis steps they have done,
    They did general diagnostic test - It has failed for too many App crashes - Genius Bar Associate said it is common, please reboot the phone regularly. What a solution!!!
    Coming to camera they don't have any scientific way of finding the issues. So no proper diagnostic process.
    They Took some pictures of Apple store with Zoom and without zoom. And showed me there are no smudge marks. What a great way of diagnosis!!!
    Then I have mentioned them that it needs to take closeup of people. So now they started taking pictures of me with zoom and without zoom. After this they saw the smudges.
    I have told them to compare with iPhone5. They took pictures of me with iPhone 5 and found the quality is much better than iPhone 6 Plus. Their explanation is f-stop and depth is different. What an innovative excuse for better picture quality on older version phone. I am seeing great bluffing activity started now.
    Now the final comparison. They said they will compare with exact another iPhone 6 Plus and see if there are any issue with my phone. I said OK. Now they took pictures of me with a new identical iPhone 6 plus with zoom and without zoom. Great rope act now...they saw the exact smudges on photos on using the identical iPhone 6 Plus. Their explanation on next step.
    Since both the phones are producing smudges they derived the conclusion that my phone has no issue. And they said that the issue is resolved. My answer to them is  "ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. IN FACT IT IS PROVED AND YOU BETTER ESCALATE IT AND SOLVE IT'
    What a great experience at Genius Bar. If they have served beer or hard liquor instead of this BS I would have been a happy customer.

    I never asked for any replacement....I wanted a solution for bad picture. If it is proved that all phones are producing same smudges they better think a common solution for all. Case is not closed, in fact it remains open as long as they doesn't answer it.
    See the attached pictures how bad it is in low light...FYI...no editing done on these pictures.
    No Zoom
    Little Zoom
    More Zoom..look how bad it gets...

  • Signal drop after installing OS 4.0.1 - Apple 3GS 16GB

    Hi,
    I have installed OS 4.0.1 yesterday and immediatly noticed drop in signal strength.Signal strength came to half after installing it.
    Any one else experiencing the same problem and any solution?
    I know I can go back to old version rather than that any solution?
    Thank you

    Incorrect... it changed the equation for the display. the math was changed which is now affecting the actual connection.
    No, it didn't.
    the places i had full signal now only has half. the places i had a one bar now has none. this is all since the 4.1 update.
    That sounds about right, as the update changes this.
    so a software update does have the ability to affect things like signal if everything is based off the previous equation. you follow what im saying.
    Again, no. The update does not change the actual signal your phone gets. It can't, as this is dependent on the cell tower's output power and how much of that is coupled into the antenna. That yields a certain signal strength number, expressed in dBm, which the phone then maps to a visualization in bars. This is done because most people have no idea what -100 dBm means, much less how much worse that is than -51dBm (which is all you'll ever get). A nice graph showing bar is pretty understandable, though, so phones use that.
    How the raw numbers (dBm) map to bars is different per phone. You can not compare a Nokia phone to an iPhone, or an iPhone to a blackberry, or a blackberry to an HTC phone, etc. using just 'bars'. You need the raw numbers.
    The 4.0.1 update changed how the different numbers map to bars. Nothing else changed, apart from some Exchange-related bug.
    Here's a picture showing what happens. Keep in mind the actual signal strength (the line in the middle) does not change.

  • Ipad sudden signal drop

    Hi
    suddenly just this week my iPad 2 seems to struggle getting a decent wifi signal, while my MacBookPro seems fine in the same location. So for example I get the full four bars on the MBP and just the one on iPad, side by side . This has never happened before, and I am scratching my head wondering why now. Can anyone advise?

    May or may not help, but try a reset (hold the power and home keys down until the Apple logo appears).
    FWIW, I have noticed a variation between my MacBook Pro signal and my iPad signal (located in the same location and connected to the same router).

  • Airport signal drop after Microsoft applications launch

    Ok here is the deal. I've recently noticed over the past several weeks that I would lose my Airport signal whenever I launch either Microsoft Entourage or Messanger.
    It is truly bizarre. I have a Macbook Pro and I also have a Dell PC laptop and Dell PC desktop that all connect to the base station wirelessly.
    Everything works fine until I try to launch one of those applications. I have to restart the base station to get the signal back. It is driving me mad.
    Any ideas?

    I had one AE base unit, where network connection would disapear every other day. The light would still be green on the AE, but the signal from the AE could not be picked up nor seen by the computer. Only turning the AE off and back on, would make it appear and work again. I Changed the AE unit, and I dont have the problem any more. I didnt change any settings at all.
    So in my case, it was the AE base unit that was malfunctioning.
    I have also seen similar problems with a different cause: That the wifi network card in the computer wasnt connected properly. ..
    I dont think its a software problem
    good luck

  • I have a "Calendars" file on my desktop after visiting the Genius Bar.  When opened it shows recent calendar files. How do I get it off the Desktop?

    How do I get a "Calendars" file off my desktop.  Where is it supposed to go?  It has files of recent calendars in it and I'm afraid to delete it.

    Thank you.
    When I tried I was given a notice that there was a newer version in the library, so I trashed it.

  • As of February 1st all my notes on iPad disappeared, went to the Apple Genius Bar and they had no answers or help for me.  Any ideas? Thanks

    As of February 1 all my notes disappeared from my iPad, iPhone and iCloud. Went to Genius Bar and they had no answer for me.  Reset my iPad with a prior iCloud backup date, no luck getting my notes back.   Genius Bar and apple have no clue, any ideas.  Thanks

    Try Spotlight Search your notes.
    1. From any Home screen page of iPad, drag your finger down anywhere on the center of Home screen.
    2. Spotlight search will now appear and you can search for apps, texts, or any other content you'd like just as you did on previous versions of iOS.

  • No sound from headphone jack -- here's what I've tried -- now Genius bar?

    Hi all,
    Some time ago the headphone jack on my MacBook decided to stop putting out sound. I've searched a bunch of forums looking for clues but no dice yet. I've looked into a bunch of things trying to diagnose and fix this problem, which I'll summarize below:
    In System Preferences > Sound the Output toggles between Headphones and Internal Speakers when I plug in and unplug the headphones, so I know the jack is responding. The mute button is not selected and volumes are up.
    In Audio MIDI Setup > Properties for Built-in Output > Source: Headphones, volume sliders for 1 and 2 are up and not muted. (M is greyed and all the way down but I understand this is for mono.)
    I deleted these files and rebooted:
    com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist
    com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist
    Now here's the crazy part -- my girlfriend has reported the headphones have worked recently with DVD Player. Earlier today it was working with DVD Player only to go out after hitting pause. I quit and relaunched DVD Player and they started working again. Hit pause and they died again; now after several relaunches nothing's happening.
    So my next step is probably to visit the "Genius Bar" at the Apple Store. Is there anything else I can try that I've not thought of? I've seen a number of forum posts on this problem, so it sounds like I'm not the only one this has happened to.
    Thanks for your help.

    Took this in to a repair shop and they ended up having to replace the logic board. Thankfully it was still under Apple Care.

  • What should I do; My Macbook Pro Retina 13" performing worse after a visit to the Genius Bar.

    To give a little background; my MacBook is my baby. I keep it as safe and clean as I possibly can. The only damage that has come to it is a tiny dent in the left corner of the screen, when my little sister took it, ran, and dropped it on a wooden floor. It's my pride and joy, and I would never mistreat my computer. I don't loan it to friends, I always know where it is, and I do my best to keep it from dying. The only thing I do which is problematic is not shutting it down often enough; I usually keep it on for days at a time, I don't sleep much and spend a lot of time on my computer, but for such a high price, I was expecting that it could handle it. Onto the problem.
    My computer was having minor problems with the trackpad and keyboard and had been since I'd bought it, but I hadn't been noticing it much until recently. I remember my mom pointed it out when I first got it and I told her she was crazy. I suspected a little hardware problem that my AppleCare would cover. When I went in to the Genius Bar, they opened up my computer and told me I had serious water damage. I was shocked as I'd never brought my computer close to water; I don't bring it in the bathroom, so no condensation, I have never spilled on it, I don't usually eat or drink around it, etc. I was given very minimal detail or explanation, simply told over and over that it was water damage, and they told me my AppleCare had been deactivated, which made me even MORE upset. The store told me it would cost almost $1000 to fix, at which point I was about to cry since that's almost the cost of my computer. I was going to wait until I got home to get an opinion from my hometown Apple Store, as they've known me for a long time and I was upset with the unhelpful service at the Genius Bar around my college.
    My current problem is that I don't think I can wait until May. My computer has been acting up ever since the Genius Bar visit earlier this month, my screen is shaking and the color is going in and out, sound is acting strangely, and I'm really, really upset since none of these problems existed before my visit. I didn't feel it was a problem until recently, since it was pretty scattered and I felt like if I ignored it until I got home in mid-May, I could get it fixed then. Now, I feel as though something was jostled or screwed with while they were checking my computer and it's causing me a lot of problems, problems that are interfering with my use of this otherwise awesome device. I really love my MacBook, it's the best computer I've had, but I am at my wits end.
    AppleCare is insurance, and I don't understand how they could take it away for something that I have no control over. When I bought AppleCare, I was told it would cover any damage that happened to the hardware or software of my computer, which is the whole reason I bought it! I wouldn't have wasted money on it if I knew this was a way to take the responsibility of fixing my computer away from Apple! I am beyond angry with the service I received, the "rules" of AppleCare, and the performance of my computer after the visit. I can barely type this since my screen refuses to stay still or one color! I was having absolutely no screen problems before this visit!!!
    This is my last resort; I may return to the Genius Bar sometime next week for a reassessment. I am extremely upset with the service I have received and the new problems arising. This computer is barely seven/eight months old. It should NOT be having these problems. I can't help but think it was a manufacturing error and I was given an incorrect diagnosis. As a final, desperate cry for help, I thought I'd turn to the support forum for advice; is there anything you guys think I should be doing or any way I can possibly fix this problem myself/without Apple since apparently I have no insurance even though I paid $250 for problems like this to be covered?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Hold the Power button until your Mac turns off, and turn it on again. As you tried to install a firmware update, plug the MacBook to its charger before turning it on.
    Note that firmware updates are installed in the next startup, so don't worry about this, as the update hasn't been installed yet.
    Respecting to other freezes, it may indicate a hardware problem. Check if the same freezes happen in the future
