IPad is constantly connected to wireless and using up all my download limit

My iPad is the only wireless device I have running and even when its turned off its still connecting to my wireless broadband. Its used up 5gb in less than two days!!! The only thing I can do to stop it is to put the iPad into flight mode or disable the wireless connection. Help!! What can I do to fix this?

I'm going to agree with everyone else. Unless your iPad is streaming movies and/or some other media content, or it's downloading hundreds of emails with photo attachments, it is seriously impossible.
I bet you have not protected your router and someone is using your bandwidth.

    Hello Bhagyeshree
    Check out the articles below to troubleshoot issues with connecting to Wi-Fi. Start with creating a new Network Location and then search for a Wi-Fi network and if that does not work, then go through second article to troubleshoot the issue further.

  • Can I turn off the wireless and use the wired connections at the same time?

    Can I turn off the wireless and use the wired connections at the same time?
    This is to avoid transmission when I work without the need for wireless

    Yes, you can. Just open the web interface of the router. On your browser type the IP address of your router, usually http://192.168.1.1 go to wireless tab and disable it.

  • IPad will not connect to wireless

    iPad will not connect to wireless network, keeps trying but will not connect.  Working on our other iPad that has no issue connecting to the same network

    Try this first - 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.)
    And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
    Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • My iPad 2 is connected, works well and is found under "devices" on the left side of my iTunes window.  But when I go into my iTunes account the iPad2 is not listed nor found to be "associated" with my account.  Why not?

    My iPad 2 is connected, works well and is found under "devices" on the left side of my iTunes window.  However, when I go into my iTunes store account under "manage devices" the iPad2 is not listed nor found to be "associated" with my account.  Why not?

    Even if you put a credit or debit card on file with iTunes it will still use your balance FIRST.
    I would suggest putting a card on file and testing to see if it will allow you to make a purchase, then removing the card from the account after successful download of an item.

    Hello, Wendy.
    I prepared a very empty sample report for you to demonstrate the problem - with this report, i hope, there is no place to discuss the shrinking of time data retrieval.
    There is one dataset, one parameter and one lookup function. The query is executed twice.

  • Im trying to connect my ipad to my connection at home and its taking the password but still wont connect and doesnt tell me why.i even tried to reset network settings

    im trying to connect my ipad to my connection at home and its taking the password but still wont connect and doesnt tell me why?? .i even tried to reset network settings

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, my guess is that it's a router issue.  You'll need to get administrative access to the router and determine if it has a firewall.  If one is present, turn it off and test the iPad.  If that solves the problem, don't leave it that way.  Turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test again.  Repeat as required.
    For what it's worth, a router firewall can stop iPad communication without affecting computer communication.  I do not understand why the difference.
    Edit...
    I just saw the post from Diavonex.  An off/on is certainly worth a shot.  Leave it off for ten seconds.

  • I have an ipod 4 can i connect to pc and, using itunes match, store all music off ipod and then transfer to a new ipod 5?

    i have an ipod 4 can i connect to pc and, using itunes match, store all music off ipod and then transfer to a new ipod 5?

    hI, bella
    I also met this issue a few days ago and I finally find out how to transfer music from iPod to computer:
    1. Plug your iPod in and wait for the computer to recognize it.
    2. Open up 'My Computer' and under 'Devices With Removable Storage', double click and open apple iPod.
    3. Click on 'Tools' at the top of the window and drag down to 'Folder Options'.
    4. Under the 'View' tab, find the subfolder called 'Hidden files and folders'.
    5. Select the option 'Show hidden files and folders'.
    6. Click 'OK'.

  • IPad showing photos in about settings and using gb space despite being deleted

    iPad showing photos in about settings and using gb space despite being deleted

    And it is not Photo Stream photos that you are seeing reflected?
    Try resetting your device(nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, see if the issue is resolved.
    If it isn't try syncing with iTunes on the computer you sync with, and uncheck "Sync Photos". See if that clears it up. If it does, then re-sync the photos that you want.
