Ipad mini won't connect to WiFi

Recently, my daughter misplaced her iPad mini. After a long search, we found it at home unharmed. However, I think I might have changed a setting through our shared Apple ID when it was missing but I can't figure out what or how. The iPad mini will not connect to our WiFi now, not even if I use my phone as a Hotspot. Help!
Thank you!

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.

IPad mini won't connect to wifi, but does connect to iPhone hotspot.

I have a 1st gen iPad mini. It suddenly didn't connect to any of my known networks (House, work, parents). It does see the wifi signal but does not connect. I did a reset to all network settings, and it only connects to my iPhone hotspot but when I try to put the password for all the other wifi networks it gives me a message that the password is incorrect, which I'm sure is not right because I tried it on the other devices. I made a full restore to factory settings so it's runing iOS 8.1, it is like new, but still the same problem.

Hi Maybe it's a hardware problem or a modem problem. I think you need to take to Apple Store they may exchange but you will have to pay part of the cost if over 1 year old. Cheers Brian

Ipad mini does not connect SOME wifi

My iPad mini does not connect some wifi. I tried all instructions like resetting settings, on-off router, manuel configuration but it is still same. I am using same router at my home and with same confiqs, it is connecting there, other iPads, iPhones are also connecting to wifi here, It also connects some other wifi's.
I've read that there is no solution, I have to change it.
Do you have any other idea? Because here-Turkey- it is not easy to do it like USA.

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.

IPad Mini could not connect to wifi - but Android phone was OK

I was at the Hay Literary Festival yesterday and although they had a good free wi-fi service to which my Android Samsung phone could connect, my iPad Mini could not hold the connection....it found the wi-fi, I entered the userid and p/w and momentarily it appeared to have connected, but then lost it. Another person near me had exactly the same issue with her iPad Mini.    As soon as we got home, my iPad connected as usual to my home wi-fi and there is no hint of an issue with it.
So what could have been wrong at Hay?    Even when I positioned myself next to their router, my iPad still would not maintain the connection. Is there something inherently wrong with the iPad, which I may get with other free wi-fi connections? Or was there something unusual about the Hay setup? Their techno-guru opined that Apple devices don't always connect, whereas Android's don't seem to have a 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.

I upgraded to Fiber Optic today and now my ipad mini won't connect to the internet although it shows a signal

As the title says, we changed to fiber optics today (yay! so speedy) and all our devices (Macbooks, iphones) connect just fine. My ipad mini (about 1 year old) won't connect although it finds the network on the airport effertlessly and shows full signal bars as if it is connected. For all intents and purposes it looks like it is connected, but it isn't. I have done all the usual - turned on and off (router and device), forgotten network, renewed network lease, reset network settings, reset all settings, etc. Everthing! Still not working. Help please!!!!!!

Hello Tom,
So this is the Airport Forum. Hence when you were discussing your "Airport", one assumes you are referring to the Airport Extreme or Airport Express (ie - http://www.apple.com/airport-extreme/ or http://www.apple.com/airport-express/). It is slightly confusing when Apple refers to the Airport being the wireless in devices as well as their wireless routers.
It would help us if you told us what type of connection, for instance I live in the UK and have Fibre Optic (to cabinet) and have a cable modem from Virgin Media, which I have then connected (via ethernet) an Apple Airport Extreme (6th Gen) to distribute the internet connection and my local LAN.
Maybe you had ADSL prior and are now on Fibre via cable?

IPad Mini iOS7 only connects to wifi when 20cm on top of router

Hi,
I have an iPad Mini which I updated today with the new iOS 7.1 software. As a lot of other people have reported, I've been having huge problems connecting to my wifi router, which is 2.4GHz. After 4+ hours of troubleshooting trial and error and research, I finally figured out the best I could do is get my iPad connected if I placed it directly on top of the router... obviously that kind of defeats the whole 'mobile' aspect of my mobile device and is not a solution. If I move just a metre away, it gets disconnected.
The most helpful post I've found on this matter is this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5786102?tstart=0
After trying EVERYTHING on there multiple times (rebooting, resetting router setters, resetting iPad settings, all of them about 25+ times and alternate methods), I managed to speak to 2 Apple Support advisors who were unhelpful. They told me to take it to a local Apple Support service but in my region that does not exist! So what to do?
This is obviously an engineering problem coming from the makers of iOS 7.1, as it's defo not coming from me and is not a network problem since the iPad does connect when it's 10cm away from the router. The post linked above reaffirms this; that it comes to down to a hardware/NVRAM issue. Apple has acknowledged this as an issue and I've read it's a problem that persists across a range of iPad models. Impossibly frustrating!
Am I supposed to wait until the engineers fix the bug in the software? My warranty has ended so I'm assuming I'd need to pay for repair... which would be RIDICULOUS given that it's an actual software update that has rendered my iPad 90% useless!!
Anyone, help please!?!?

Nope. Not that I am aware of at any rate. And while it has been a few months (since I basically gave up and just tried to make do with my cellular data until I could circle back and try again), I am fairly certain that this iPad works with most other wifi connections. Like in the Apple Store, for instance. I will go try some other connections again (local coffee house, a friend's place, etc) but I am fairly certain the results will be the same: fine at those place, still a PITA at home.
It seems to be only about my particular Netgear router and the iPad itself. Or something. Damned if I know, otherwise I would have fixed it by now.

My iPad mini won't connect to my Macbook Pro through AirPLay (Using Reflector to mirror)

I use the Reflector program on my Macbook to mirror my iPad mini onto my Macbook Pro in order to demo a mobile application
I am connected to the same wifi on both my Macbook (2014, Yosemite) and iPad mini (2014 iOS8, 16GB, wifi only)
I select AirPlay, select my Macbook Pro, turn mirroring ON
It tries to connect (shows blue check mark) and then about 5 seconds later the checkmark disappears, failing to connect
Sometimes AirPlay option does not even appear
I've restarted both my computer and iPad mini multiple times
Any ideas?

CContact the developers of reflector.
It is not an Apple product and not supported by Apple.

Ipad mini won't connect to cellular data - fully

Got ipad mini for Xmas. Finally got round to getting EE SIM. Shows as being active with signal, but cannot connect to internet. Took SIM back to Carphone Warehouse (where SIM came from) and they thought it was the APN settings but checked and it wasn't. They then put the Sim into a phone and it worked fine.
They suggested that the ipad was blocked which happens when it's been stolen. It hasn't. I have my husbands receipt.
Have subsequently tried everything listed in these discussion pages and on Apple help pages including reset, on and off etc but it still isn't working. Have rung John Lewis (where ipad was purchased) and they have said to take it in to them. Thought I'd try here first as they indicated that it may have to be sent away.
Have ipad 2 with EE SIM working fine, but too much demand in our house for ipad to be without my new one!
Please help.

Thanks. Have tried switching to 3G already. Think I have turned on and off just about everything I can.
Have also tried to get cellular to work in a number of different areas (not just at home) including the shop where they got SIM to work in a HTc phone. I don't have an adapter but since the SIM worked ok in another appliance, I'm assuming that it's not worth me trying that?
When you put the SIM in, it's meant to automatically go to registration page for EE. I don't recall it doing that which is odd but it does come up as 'EE' with a good signal in the top left of ipad.
Any other ideas gratefully received before I make trip to John Lewis.
Many thanks for your suggestions so far.

IPad Mini wont stay connected to wifi.

I've had my iPad Mini for almost a year and have never had this problem until about a month ago. When I wake my iPad, I have to reconnect to my wifi network. How can I fix this?

Try to reset network settings on your iPad: Settings>General>Reset>Reset network settings and reconnect to the wifi and test it. If that doesnt work, try to restart your router by unplugging it from the wall for about 15 seconds.
Heres the full list of wifi troubleshooting steps:

My ipad mini won't connect to my computer anymore.

my ipad mini wont connet to my computer anymore, i plug it in i see the battery for a second then it says not charging and it will not connect with itunes. it has worked fine up until now.

If you are running a Mac, the repair for your iOS device not being seen by iTunes could be very simple : repair your permissions. Create a bootable USB keychain drive with the latest version of OSX on it. Boot from it. Use Disk Utility to repair the permissions.
NOTE : Please remember to continue running permissions repair until it returns zero fixes. This fix also assumes you have diligently updated your Mac to the very latest OS and other software available from Apple.
Then just boot from your internal drive as normal, and see if it works. I don't know if this will work for you, but it is another possibility to try, and worked for a Mac Pro tower (running 10.8.5 and the latest version of iTunes 11.1.x).
