IPad 2 Wifi Problems after upgrading to iOS 6

I Updated my iPad 2 to ios6 then day iOS6 was released, ever since then i have been unable to connect to the wifi. I've reset the network setting and the wifi works for about 5 minutes until i go on any apple app ( itunes, app store, maps etc). I've reset the Network settings more than once, I've turned the HTTP proxy to auto, I've pressed Renew Lease, I've unplugged the wifi, and I've pressed Forget this network. Reluctantley i updated my ipod touch 4 gen to see if iOS 6 was the problem and I now have the exact same problem on my ipod touch. Someone Help!!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Fix for my iPhone 3Gs WiFi problems after upgrade to iOS 4

Posting incase this helps. I upgraded to iOS 4 on my 3Gs while away from home and came home to find that I couldn't get a reliable connection to my home WiFi which had been rock solid when I left two weeks ago.
My network consistes of a telco supplied router & ADSL box connected by LAN to an Airport Extreme which then connects wirelessly to an Airport Time Machine in another room (actually a steel lined safe room so I have to be sure that the door is open). The Time Machine is set to act as a range extender as is an Airpot Express N I have connected to a hifi.
Well after rebooting everything and scratching my head I took a look at the wireless settings on the base Airport Extreme. *It was set to 802.11n only!* I, therefore, have no idea how my iPhone was able to connect to this up to now. *I've set it now to 802.11n (b/g compatible)* and the iPhone once again connects and re-connects without any trouble at all.
I know the 3Gs is not capable of 802.11n but I can assure you that for the last few months I haven't changed that router so it was certainly working in that 802.11n only mode on that apple router.

Hey, that's a great tip for others who are having issues to check out. Thanks for posting your findings!

Problems after upgrading to iOS 5.0...

Hi,
maybe it's been said and maybe it's a matter of the iPad 1, but after upgrading to ios 5.0 all my apps started to reset when used. Is there something I can do to avoid this? I tried resetting the iPad and nothing....
Kind Regards

If the apps that are crashing are third party apps - not the Apple installed apps - try downloading another app - any free app will do. That resets something in your iTunes account and it should allow those third party apps to work again.
You said that you reset the iPad - but if you didn't reset this way - try it - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
You can also try quitting all apps and see how the iPad behaves once you start using apps again. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You could also try restoring the iPad if nothing else works.
A number of us are experiencing issues with this update. Apple announced that an update (iOS 5.01) is coming soon and it has been released in Beta to developers. Hopefully, the general public will be getting it soon and it will help resolve some of these "buggy" things that some of us are experiencing.

What happened to my ipad weather app after upgrading to ios 7?

What happened to my ipad weather app after upgrading to ios 7?

If you are talking a built-in Weather app then that has never been included in iOS on iPads. If you mean a weather app that you downloaded from the store then which app is it ?

Email problem after upgrading to ios 8.1.3

After upgrading to ios 8.1.3 my wife and I are having problems with our separate iPods downloading email messages from our Hotmail accounts. Synchronisation can be slow, sometimes doesn't happen, and at other times the header information downloads but a message says the content could not be downloaded from the server. Swiping down to do an email refresh doesn't solve it. Closing down the email app and switching the iPod off and on does cause the message to download properly. Of course it could be a MSN/Hotmail problem, but it seems suspicious it has coincided with the 8.1.3 upgrade. As a cold reboot solves the problem, I think it is a problem with ios 8.1.3.

I have this exact problem with gmail and have been unable to solve it. I checked my account, smtp settings, everything is as it should be. I deleted my account (twice!), and then added it back in. No help.
The problem however didn't appear right away for me on my ipad (3e gen). It occurred rather spontaneously in the last week of february.
Strangely, it recognizes my account, and I can send e-mails with it. So the problems seems to be on the receiving side. It recognizes the structure of my gmail, but all the folders are empty. On my iphone 5 I do not have this problem.
My workaround for now: download the google gmail app and use that to check my mail. Sending still works with the ipad mail app. But it is frustrating not being able to use this to receive mail.

Smb protocol problem after upgrading to IOS 8

Hi,
I use SMB protocol to connect to Windows share folders in our company.
Using IOS 7 on the iPad was working great until i upgrade one iPad to IOS 8.
I can't connect using SMB protocol on the iPad with IOS 8. With an iPad with IOS 7 still works great.
The settings are the same. I tested Goodreader v3 and v4 and FileExplorer program on the iPad with IOS 8 and on the iPad with IOS 7.
The problem is only on the iPad with IOS 8. It does not matter which program I use. All are not working.
On the iPad with IOS 7 all the programs works just fine.
It seems that after upgrading to IOS 8, I have problem connecting to the share folders in Goodreader v3, v4 and in FileExplorer.
It seems the problem is not on the settings of the server, account etc, also not program related but with the IOS 8.
Does someone have this problem or now how to fix this?

Hi all,
I have run some more test and the problem is not with the SMB protocol but to connect to a DFS server.
One share name like company.local and behind this we have some servers.
The problem is with the DFS name (routing) When I connect directly to one server share location, it works fine.

Problems after upgrading to ios 6.1.2

After upgrading to ios 6.1.2 my iphone4 no longer recognises the docking station - anyone else having this problem, how to i fix it?

I have the exact same problem following the software update. My phone doesn't work with my handy clock dock, nor will it work with my FM plug-in for my (old, pre USB jack) car. Is this some ploy by Apple to get us to buy only Apple-brand accessories?

Music albums purchased in March are no longer in my iPad and iPod after upgrading to iOS 7 why?

After upgrading to iOS 7 all the music albums purchased in March are no longer in the iPad or the iPod although in the iTunes Store are shown as purchased. How I can get them back?

Your original post:
I upgraded an iPad 2 to iOS 7 and since then SIRI no longer works when pressing the HOME button. The settings for SIRI has also disappeared in the GENERAL settings. I have searched and found no posts with this issue!
iPad 2, iOS 7

Perhaps it might help if you posted your model number as it seems unclear which iPad you actually have. Settings>General>About

Ipad 2 Wifi issues after upgrading to ios 7

I live in a small house, 750 sq ft area (30 x 22). Ipad wifi was working fine in all the rooms before upgrading its iOS to 7. After ipad2 iOS was upgraded to iOS 7, wifi now works in the room where the Wifi router is located. But does not receive Wifi signal in any other room. I tired everything that has been suggested in the forum - like changing the router settings (channel, security etc),playing with ipad2's wifi, etc. etc. But to no avail!
Clearly the bug in iOS 7 has caused this issue! How does one log this issue with Apple tech support team so they can rectify this issue in iOS 7 patch? Also, please let me know if I should be trying anything else. Thanks!

I have exactlythe same issue. Have had ever since the upgrade to iOS 7. It's nothing to do with the router. It has to be a bug in iOS 7. Question is, would upgrading to iOS 8 help at all??? Anyone done this.?? I used to love my iPad and it was never out of my hand. Now I just hate it and use my Kindle Fire all the time instead. I used to pick up wiif signals across the street. Now I have to be sitting on a router to connect.

TS1398 Still having problems with my ipad wifi connection since upgrading to IOS 6. Can Apple do something about it the soonest possible time. I don't have this kind of problem using IOS 5.1.1 Can you at least put back the 5.1.1 if you cant find a solut

So disappointed with IOS 6. I'm having weak wifi connection since upgrading to it. Can Apple do something about it? Can you at least reset it to IOS 5.1.1?

Sorry Jim for the wrong question because I'm getting frustated with my IPAD since I can't use it for surfing internet with a faster speed. Ipad was very convenient to use until this IOS 6 upgrade. Tried all the suggestions in the forums but still gets back to weak wifi connection.

Following ultimately helped me : Make sure that you are logged in at the App Store App or iTunes App with your apple ID and password with a US account. Turn your iPad off and on and than you should see the Radio button again. It won't work if you are logged on with a foreign account. If you are not logged in at all, it worked, too.

Ipad Wifi problem after 7.1.2 update

Hey there! I noticed a big problem after updating my Ipad Air (Wifi Only) to iOS 7.1.2
When I put the device on standby It disconnects from the Wifi network, so I don't receive any push notification. Then when I start using the iPad again, the device reconnects immediately to the Wifi.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Keyboard problems after upgrade to iOS 8.02

has anyone else had problems with the keyboard obscuring the screen since upgrading to iOS 8.02?. I cant see what I'm typing.

Hey Dizzy blue,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPad after updating to iOS 8.0.2. If you have not yet already done so, let’s try restarting or resetting your device:
If the issue persists after a restart, let’s see if we can isolate further by backing up and restoring your device as new:
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
Thanks,
Matt M.

WiFi problem after upgrading to Windows 8.1 Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

I have this problem after updating to 8 to 8.1
Right after updating to 8 to 8.1, all of a sudden my wifi stops working. I used my philips external wifi usb stick and now I'm able to get the internet going.
However if I disconnect my philips usb I no longer get the internet because the built in wifi that came with the R400 ThinkPad no longer works. I went through the device manager and under properties it tells me, 'Device not working properly' however it is up to date.
Im Running Windows 8.1 64bit Laptop Lenovo R400 ThinkPad

Hi Matti,
Thank you for replying back!
I suggest you to reinstall the Windows 8.1, as all the windows driver will not update, if you have upgraded the Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.
Please download Windows 8.1 separately and reinstall the OS, I hope this may resolve the issue.
Note: I am not suggesting for clean installation, only reinstalling the same OS.
Do not update the drivers from ThinkVantage system update utility. I suggest you to uninstall the current drivers and download the drivers manually for Windows 8.1 and install it.
Below is the link to enter the downloads page and download updates accordingly, please click on "Select Product" then in "QUICK PATH" enter the MTM no. select the exact model.
