IPad safari wont connect

My iPad is 5months old and has worked perfectly - now all of a sudden it won't connect to the internet or "talk" to my iMac. Any ideas before I have to consider whether there is an actual fault with the iPad.
Thanks

if it don't want to talk with both itunes and iphoto
and you have tried another usb port and usb cable
then I would try connecting it with another computer if that also did not detect it
I would say the connector in the ipad was damaged

From Apple's website and printed on the box the mini came in:
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
Download iTunes at www.itunes.com/download
You will have to update to at least OS X 10.6.8 or later, otherwise known as snow leopard.

My iPhone 3GS & iPad 4 wont connect to my Macbook

Hello, my name is Dave. I have two problems with Apple products.
I've been trying to upload music to my iPhone 3GS and iPad from my Macbook.
     - iPhone 3GS problem
          I have a 32GB iPhone 3GS with 6.1.6. I want to upload music to my phone, but I cant. I can connect my iPhone to my Macbook, and it wont even charge it, closed or not. I haven't tried putting my iPhone into recovery mode yet, only because it wont even charge from my Macbook. I followed Glenn Carter's instructions from this link. Iphone wont connect to macbook
"Well, I may have discovered a fix, or at least a work around for this.
Quit iTunes if open, and go to Home Folder/Library/Preferences.
Scroll down to
com.apple.iTunesHelper.plist
Move it to the Trash (but don't Empty it yet).
Log out of your account (or reboot), and then log back in. Now, without launching iTunes, connect your iPhone and see if iTunes launches on its' own.
Let us know your results. Cheers!" -Glenn Carter
     -iPad 4 problem
          My second problem is with my 32GB iPad 4 with 8.1. I am having a similar problem to what is going on with my iPhone. My iPad will connect to my Macbook and iTunes, but will ask me to enter my passcode to gain access. The problem is, I will enter my passcode, it will read for a second, then come back with the same thing. It shows up with this message.
"iTunes could not connect to the iPad “David J. Botelho's iPad” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPad before it can be used with iTunes."
          It will ask me to try again, and I keep trying. It still comes up with the same message EVERY time I try to enter my passcode to gain access.
     I have a Macbook 5, 2 with Mac OS X 10.6.8(10K549) and I have iTunes 11.0.4.
     This is very annoying. I would appreciate it if someone could solve either one of my problems, or both. Thank you for your time.
     -Dave

Then, after a few times of disconnecting and reconnecting my iPad to my Macbook, this shows up....
Not even an iPhone !!! VERY confused.

IPAD 2 WONT CONNECT TO KNOWN NETWORK

I input the wifi key for the known network but the ipad wont connect to the internet?

Other things you can try:
1. Have you tried rebooting router?
2. Reset network settings
3. Have you tried changing the security settings e.g. WEP, WPA, WPA2
4. Have you tried changing channel; try channel 1, 6 or 11 (non-overlapping channels)?
5. Reduce the number of walls between your iPad and the router.
6. Have you tried changing wireless protocol e.g. a/b/g/n

IPAD 3 wont connect to MIFI 4620L when other wifi signals are present

I work in a large building with multiple wifi signals bouncing around. My MIFI 4620L works perfectly with all my devices everywhere except in the building in which I work (where it is most needed). Jetpack reception is good. IPAD recognizes the jetpack, but when I try to connect it either simply wont connect or it connects and disconnects in a fast repetitive cycle. Any Ideas?

Hi knox99,
It's a bummer when you are having trouble using your device in the place you need it most! I'm here to work with you and get to the root cause of the issue. Please try the steps below for some troubleshooting.
Connect to any device and then navigate to 192.168.1.1 . Then, login using the password on the Mifi label. Once completed, please click on Advanced and then Settings and change the available Wi-fi Connects to one. At this point, please retest at your work location. Please let me know if you need additional assistance, thank you!

Ipad safari wont open

Have you tried rebooting your router? Sometimes that can help. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

How To Completely Uninstall and Remove All Traces of iTunes
http://zardozz.com/zz/2008/04/how-to-completely-uninstall-and-remove-all-traces- of-itunes.html/
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

My ipad 2 wont connect to internet

Got the wife an Ipad 2 for Christmas and it was working fine until she went to her mothers house and used her Wi Fi and now I can't get my WiFi connection to access Safari or any other app that uses the internet connection at home. The iPad shows it is connected and has a strong connection but I can't use any apps that are internet based.
I have rebooted the pad, turned off and then back on the network connection, reset network connection, renewed lease, synched it again and still have nothing. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Have a good new year, Paul

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Ipad/safari wont track browse history when private not selected. Fix?

Played around with Safari/ipad settings and deleted all browsing history. Now it doesnt track website history at all even when private isnt manually selected. Have I changed a default? Want it to track History now and cant find an obvious fix!

Iphone/ipad/macbook wont connect to new modem

Got new modem, same router. ipad,iphone, macbooks will not connect to wi-fi

Generally it is not the modem that supplies the wifi, it is the router. Where are you getting your wifi signal from, the router or the modem. There are modems that also supply wifi. Who is the ISP?

IPad 2 wont connect to wifi at work but will at home after 5.1.1 update

Hey Guys,
Ipad was working just fine until I updated to version 5.1.1. Now i cant connect to my work router which is a d-link dir655. The odd part of it is that my iPhone and MBP are both connected to the router with no problems. I tried powering down and then back up with both the router and the iPad. I also did a soft reboot on the iPad all ending with no success. The ipad connects fine to my home Fios router but states "unable to join" on the work one. Any thoughts???

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) 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. 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.
