Ipad3 No service, keeps searching but wifi works
WWhy do I have NO SERVICE for my status line. Wifi works but ipad keeps searching and draining my battery.
WIFi always shows searching even when connected. This is to discover additional WiFi networks. It does not increase battery usage.
No Service refers to Cellular Data. It indicates that is no cellular service at your location. To turn off the cellular service message use Settings > Cellular Data and turn it Off.

i have problem with my wifi in 4 S, i cant connect to any wifi itried resetting network setting and reset all setting but the result was the same, its only keeps searching for wifi and cant find any, itried to use OTHER but also didnt work.please help me???
If Join was on then your home wi-fi must be set to Non-Broadcast. If you did not set this up (maybe your provider did) then you will need to find the Network Name they used, and any password they used. The SSID is Security Set ID and to see more try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID . Basically it is the name used to identify your router/network. A lot of times the installer will leave it set as LinkSys, or Broadcom or whatever the manufacturer set it as for default. Your best bet is to get whoever installed it to walk you through how they set it up, giving you id's and passwords so you can get in. HOWEVER, if you are not comfortable with this (if you set security wrong, etc.) you would be well ahead of the game to hire a local computer tech (networking) to get this working for you. You can also contact the vendor of your router and get help (if it is still in warranty), or at least get copies of the manuals as pdf files. Sorry I can't give you more help, I hope this gives you an idea where to go from here to find more.

I have two ipod touch. When trying to join game the second keeps "searching wifi games", we have connected with a friend before here. can't seem to connect HELP
Thanks, Bob! You are correct. And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE). One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind. Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers. Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them! -
TC works on ethernet, does not on wifi, but wifi works
Hi,
having problems with my Time Capsule. It was working fine until a few weeks ago, then after a long absence it stopped to work (I didn't see backups updated). I switched off the TC, then switched on, no change. I tried with a ethernet cable, and backup was done smoothly. Back to wifi, I tried to remove the com.apple.TimeMachine.plist file from /Library/Preferences, but backup through wifi didn't work. Time machine got stuck at the "Preparring Backup" stage forever.
However, the wifi works.My lMacBook Air is now connected to the internet through the TC wifi, and I can enter the TC for old backups using the wifi.
The same behavior is occurring with my wife MacBook.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks,
LuigiYour confusing me now..
To add, if I connect the wifi to the TC wifi, it works. If I connect the wifi to my adsl router, it does not. However, if I have the wifi connected to the adsl router, I can see the TC in Airport, as working fine.
But in no case does the TM backup work?? Does the TM work if you connect to the adsl router wifi instead of the TC wifi?
So you have the adsl modem as your main router. The TC should be in bridge.
I have a few tasks for you.. none of which is guaranteed to work but we should be able to fix it.
1. Downgrade the firmware.. you can try the following steps without doing this.. but 7.6.4 is not helping.
In v6 utility in Lion you can simply select the TC, option click on version.. and all the older firmware will appear. Select 7.6.1 and downgrade.
2. Factory reset.
The Factory Reset TC Gen1-4. Or AE Gen1-5
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec.
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
3. Redo the setup.
Use all SMB type names.. eg.. TCGen4 as TC name.. it is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Use TC24ghz for 2.4ghz wireless. Use TC5ghz for 5ghz wireless.. yes, use different names at least until you work out the issues.
Use WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character full alphanumeric password.
4. Delete the current TM setup and start again.
See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
So you will select the newly named TC but the TM should find your old backups and continue to use them.. only Mavericks it seems is too stupid to do this.
5. See if TM now works by wireless. -
Imac can't connect wired, but wifi works
Hellu!
Just bought a DSL-N55U modem/router (ADSL connection), seems to be a good one.
I'm the only one in the house with Mac, and I'm the only one that cant connect wired (LAN).
The other use windows and it works fine for them ..
I can connect to the router thru the wifi and it works. but i need to get online with wire.
Everytime i connect with wire
It goes online for 2 seconds, (The iMac gets a IP and internet works fine) but then it timeouts
and it repeats ...
So as soon i get online .. it kicks me out or something.
I have tried change a lot of router settings but nothing works.
I also tried to remove the network preferences and created new ones ..
Maybe i need to remove some settings or files on the iMac? i don't know ..
Please help!
I live in Sweden, and using a ADSL connection!Change the ethernet cable to a new one, try a different port on the router.
I did these but it doesn't work unless I unplug the router.
Upgrade or re-install the drivers for your LAN card in the computer.
What is LAN card?
Why do I unplug the router then things will work? there should not be anything wrong with my hardware, right? -
Corner sign No service appeared. What that's mean? I am connected , recently changed locations.
Do you have a 3G/4g iPad?
I believe the no service warning is the iPad telling you you are not connected to a cell network.
Turn off mobile data. -
Log files full of service broker errors, but it works OK
We have a C# web application that is using SQL dependency to expire cached query data. Although everything is working okay we are seeing a lot of errors being generated particularly in our production environment.
The first error messages is this:
Service Broker needs to access the master key in the database 'SubscriberManager'. Error code:32. The master key has to exist and the service master key encryption is required.
It shows up in both the server event log and the SQL server log files. I believe the actual content of the messages something of a red herring as I have created a database master key.
I have also tried
Recreating both the service master key and the database master key.
Made sure the database owner is sa.
Made sure the user account has permissions to create services, queues, procedures and subscribe query notifications
Made sure the broker is enabled
I have seen other people with similar errors whilst researching the issue but the error code almost always seems to be 25 or 26 not 32. I have been unable to find anything that tells me what these error codes mean so I'm not sure of the significance.
Also I am seeing a lot of errors like this:
The query notification dialog on conversation handle '{2FA2445B-1667-E311-943C-02C798B618C6}.' closed due to the following error: '-8490Cannot find the remote service 'SqlQueryNotificationService-7303d251-1eb2-4f3a-9e08-d5d17c28b6cf' because
it does not exist.'.
I understand that a certain number of these are normal due to the way that SqlDependency.Stop doesn't clean everything up in the database, but we are seeing thousands of these on one of our production servers.
What is frustrating as we have been using SQL notifications for several years now without issue so something must have changed in either our application or the server setups to cause this but at this point I have no idea what.
The applications are .net 4.0 MVC and WCF running on Windows 2012 servers calling SQL 2012 servers also running on Windows 2012.Hi Mark,
1. for your question about possible memory pressure, if the used memory is below the Max Server Memory, then it's OK. If you have not set Max Server Memory, you should at least leave 4GB for your x64 system.
2. for your original question, I suggest you can check my actions below:
a. run this statement:
Select name, is_master_key_encrypted_by_server
from sys.databases
Where name =
'your_database_name'
if the value of "is_master_key_encrypted_by_server" equals to "0", it means the database does not have a encrypted master key.
b.if there is no encrypted master key, then the error may be hit by the "begin dialog conversation" statement (you can check your sql profiler trace to check".
"Service Broker dialog security lets your application use authentication, authorization, or encryption for an individual dialog conversation (or dialog). By default,
all dialog conversations use dialog security. When you begin a dialog, you can explicitly allow a dialog to proceed without dialog security by including the ENCRYPTION = OFF clause on the BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION statement. However, if a remote service binding
exists for the service that the conversation targets, the dialog uses security even when ENCRYPTION = OFF."
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms166036.aspx)
Workarounds can be disabling the dialog security (using encryption = off) or create a master key. You can find more information in about URL. -
Bluetooth on apple tv keeps searching but doesnt recognize my ipad keyboard
i have reset and restored the apple tv but it is still not recognizing my device
Hello jacknic27,
The steps detailed below can help get your Bluetooth Keyboad paired with your Apple TV.
If you are unable to see your keyboard when you attempt to pair it with Apple TV, check that your keyboard is:
Powered on and in range of your Apple TV
Set for discovery or pairing
A blinking LED indicates that the Apple Wireless Keyboard is in the discoverable mode. If you don't pair your keyboard with your Mac within three minutes, the indicator light and keyboard will turn off to preserve battery life. If this happens, press the On/Off switch to turn your keyboard on again.
When using third-party devices, check with the keyboard manufacturer for additional information.
Not paired or connected to another device
If your keyboard responds intermittently or cannot maintain a connection:
Ensure that the keyboard has sufficient charge or fresh batteries
Check for nearby sources of interference, including other wireless devices, Bluetooth transmitters, and so on
Try unpairing and then repairing your keyboard with Apple TV

Hi, I have iPad 2, when I buy it it has old iOS. Then I update it now it has 5.1.1 iOS and modern firmware 4.12.01. After update my wifi is not working. Only searching for wifi. 3G working well. But wifi olso worked with old iOS. So what can do ? Pls

iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
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.

HT1807 I can't get my iphone 4S to work in Brazil. Wifi works but no phone service. Help!
I'm in Brazil and my iphone 4S with Verizon has no service. Wifi works but that's it. I was told the service was activated and would work on arrival. I'm stumped! i've even had other iphone owners look at my phone and they can't figure it out. any thoughts?
You should contact Verizon and explain the issue. They are the only people who could troubleshoot International Roaming issue with authenticity.

Hi, i am using iphone4s.. 2 days ago i had a problem with wifi.. button greyed out, it was suggested to keep phone in freezer, worked temporarily and i updeted to ios7.1 but still facing same problem.. wht to do? cant afford to throw off :/ huhh..
well, you know how it is - glitches that usually resolve with a hard reset etc
then a restore. then a factory restore....then ..... nothing fixes so I try the next step with apple online - fill out my serial number and find it is a couple of weeks out of date - and then with the holidays who has time to get to the apple store? this is my second 4s handset as it is - first one the glass cracked from L to R without any impact/damage etc - they changed it out automatically because it's a 'known fault' apparently - so technically, this handset is only 6 months old - but warranty is from original purchase date -
never imagined it would turn out to be a warranty issue with the phone - and hey maybe when I get a chance to go to the apple store they'll be sympathetic, but I won't be able to get there till at least Jan 4th as it is. On the other hand, another iOS update might resolve the issue - but how long till that release? at the moment I'm having to use my old 3gs for wifi and 4s for phone!!!
