IPad Air does not appear online when using "Find my Phone"

Curious why my iPad Air appears "offline" in the Find my Phone app when it is in sleep mode.  All of my other devices (iPhone 5 & iPhone 4) both appear online (and on the map) even though they are sleeping. 
All devices are running ios7 and are connected to the same wifi network.

Hey there MntnBikeCT,
It sounds like you have the iPad Air setup with Find my iPhone but you are not able to locate with the app on a different device, but other devices work just fine. I suggest these steps from the article named:
iCloud: Troubleshooting Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4006
"No location available," "Offline," or "Location Services Off" alerts
This can occur if:
The date on your device is incorrect. Choose Settings > General > Date & Time to check and set the date.
Your iOS device is currently off or not connected to a data network (Edge, 3 or 4G, or Wi-Fi). Wait a few minutes and try again.
Your iPad (Wi-Fi only), iPod Touch, or Mac is currently off or not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Location Services is not enabled on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch (Settings > Privacy) or on your Mac (Date & Time) preferences. Learn more about Location Services on your Mac:
OS X Mountain Lion or later
OS X Lion
You are located in a country where Apple does not offer this feature. This feature may not be available in all countries due to technical limitations or local law.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

  • Youtube's video layout does not appear properly when using Firefox.

    [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v344/Hoofbeats/Picture1-2-1-1.png]
    This is what Youtube videos look like when I watch them; the option buttons normally under the video are now hidden by the video. They are still clickable, but pretty much unviewable. This only appears when I'm using Firefox.
    I'm on Firefox 3.6.12, and on Mac 10.5.8. My plugins for flash and such are all up to date, and I disabled any add-ons relating to Youtube to see if they were effecting it. No results.

    this is caused by kwiclick. disable that addon and it's fixed.
    kwiclick adds the little icons on top of the video that pushes it down, covering the lower buttons and viewcount. you can see the icons in OPs picture.

  • HT4623 My iPad mini does not make noise when typing

    My iPad mini does not make noise when typing

    Settings>Sounds>Keyboard Clicks>On. If the setting is correct, you may have muted system sounds.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • My ipad air is not turning on, when I plug it in it doesnt even show that is charging and I tried several chargers they all work fine, its just when off and pitch black help!!!

    my ipad air is not turning on, when I plug it in it doesn't even show that is charging and I tried several chargers they all work fine, its just when off and pitch black help!!!

    If the battery is very low, it can take 15 minutes or maybe even longer befor you will see any response at all on the screen. If you have let the iPad charge for what you think is a sufficient length of time and it still hasn't shown any signs of life, try a reset and see if that will force it to start up.
    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo apperas on the screen and then let go of the buttons. If that still doesn't work, try charging the device again overnight. If it's still dean in the morning, try restoring the device with iTunes.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    If that doesn't work, make an appointment at an Apple Store and seek their guidance.

  • Stationary credated in Mail does not appear properly when viewed in Outlook, is there aroundthis?

    Stationary credated in Mail does not appear properly when viewed in Outlook, is there around this? Or, can I export (as a PDF) the email drafted in Mail with stationary that does not have the meail info on top of the page . Thanks so much for your help.

    No real solution to problem 1, stationary tends to look different depending on the client, as for 2 Mail does not export to pdf but can print to pdf, however you still get the mail headers.

  • HT201272 I need to reload some songs as the backup did not include all. Following this article. Problem is that download icon does not appear anywhere. Using iTunes 11.01. Anybody seen this before?

    I need to reload some songs as the backup did not include all. Following this article. Problem is that download icon does not appear anywhere. Using iTunes 11.01. Anybody seen this before?

    Steve!
    There is a lot more "meat" in this .
    I purchased all out of Denmark. My HD crashed and I reload it all. While doing this I had to install new iTunes, - this is the newest version 10.xx. The old version was probbaly 9.xx (cant remember). So the library files are from an old version, - but it does not look like creating a problem. I am now in Sweden, so iTunes was installed in Sweden, and I try to re-download my missing songs while being here in Sweden. However, - I belive I am connected to iTunes store in Denmark. ... (it takes 2 smileys for this, - if you get as far as to here and still have an overview.)

  • Nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder; unable to re-set device

    Suddenly my 2nd gen nano does not appear in ITunes or Finder. I looked up support articles and it says to try re-setting the Nano, but I'm unable to do that -- I press the center and menu buttons; have also tried the menu and play buttons but the apple logo never appears. I've had problems with the menu button "sticking" before, so perhaps that's why...Nevertheless, how else do I fix this issue?? I've been unable to sync or transfer my recent purchases, so this is frustrating....

    - however once i reached the crutial stage of
    actually switching the 'terminal services' from
    disabled to manual, I get an error message on my
    computer "Error 5: Access denied" and nothing on the
    site gives any indication of what to do in such an
    eventuality.
    Do you have an administrator account on your computer? If you are not logged in as administrator, do so before attempting to change the to manual. However, I myself am having the same problems with my own ipod..

  • HT1491 Purchased an album on my iPad it does not appear on my iMac?

    I purchased and downloaded an album on my iPad. It downloaded fine and it plays etc. But even though it is supposed to synchronise automatically via iCloud it does not appear on my iMac or my iPhone. When I log into iTunes from my iMac and check available downloads etc nothing appears. On iTunes Store it does not show it as purchased.

    Highlighting won't transfer to Word. I haven't used iCloud beta all that much so am not sure whether it shows or not, but at the end of the day it is a beta.

  • My iPad air does not have an lock on/off toggle for the smart cover ipad cases.

    Last week I received my new at&t 64gb iPad air. (This is my 3rd iPad. 2nd that, I assume, can use a smart cover style ipad case.) Although I have not purchased a new cover for it yet. I could not help but notice that in the Settings/general there is no "Lock" on/off toggle for the magnetic cover as ther is on my iPad3. does  anyone know if there is supposed to be one on the ipad air or did apple do away with the toggle altogether?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Settings > General > Lock/Unlock shoud still appear.
    You must be running iOS 7 (which you presumably are doing on an iPad Air).  And you should be using a Smart Cover or Smart Case made by Apple.  Third party covers/cases may well not function.

  • My touch pad does not work only when using Safari browser. The screen was grey. Help!

    My touch pad does not work only when I use Safari browser online. The screen was grey. No matter what I do, there is no reponse. Only the web address box works. What is this problem? I can use App Store and everything else fine.
    Someone please help.
    Thanks

    I would try:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and delete cache, history and cookies.
