Iphone 4 after last update will not hold a wi-fi connection

Anyone else having this problem...?
It will not stay connected to my wifi network...it holds for maybe 30 seconds then loses connection.

I have been having this same problem. I have my router in the kitchen (of a smallish 2 bedroom). When I am in the kitchen/livingroom area my iPhone 4 is able to connect to the router with no problem. If I move into the bedroom which must be only 15 feet away the signal drops. My iPad and computer can find the router and connect to it with no problem. This also happens in my mother's house as well. I am not sure what the problem is.

I-phone 4 froze after an update, will not shut down and sends all calls to voicemail. Apple logo is the only screen that I get, is there anything I can do?

Unplug it and let unit go dead. Then hold your Home button down and plug the USB power cord back in. iTunes should see it and then restore.

Frozen ipod after new updates, will not recover, error codes 1601 and 1602

i updated my ipod last night, was working fine, turned off, then on again this morning. was working fine this morning for a while, then went completely blank, will not start up, just completely dead. i have tried to restore,several times and get error code 1601, and 1602. have tried restarting my computer,checking for updates, restarting my itunes, using another computer, tried another lead, and everything else suggested by support. it will just not do anything. has anyone got any suggestions, please.

I would suggest that you put your iPod into the recovery mode and restore it. Next time something like this, it is better to start with the more basic troubleshooting steps first before trying to restore. The two easiest are restart and reset.
Try these steps with your touch.
1. Unplug the device from your computer
2. Turn the touch off - hold the Sleep/Wake button down until you see the red slider and turn the device off. Note: this may not work. If not, go to the next step.
3. Start iTunes
4. Hold the Home button down and keep holding it down while you plug your iPod back into your computer.
5. Keep holding the button down until iTunes tells your "that an iPod in Recovery mode has been detected".
6. Let go of the button and follow the on screen instructions to restore the touch.

After software update, will not boot up past blue screen

I just did a software update and after restarting, the computer will not go past the blue screen with the spinning wheel at the bottom. Please help! I've tried everything under troubleshooting in the manual. Any other ideas?

Thanks, I was able to fix my problem. It was a software issue. Luckily I did a pretty good backup...I just forgot to back up 2 of my most used applications: iPhoto and Appleworks. They were on my laptop before I did the erase and install, and now they are gone. I thought they would be on the iBook install discs or the OSx software install disc...but no. They had to come from somewhere and I just cannot find them! I know I didn't pay for them. Any thoughts on where they may be? I am so mentally exhausted from these computer woes...I can't think anymore!!! Please help me!

My Iphone has water damage and will not hold a charge.

About 5 weeks ago, I got my iPhone 4s wet. It was not completely submerged in water and had a phone cover on it at the time. I put it in a bag of rice for about 3 weeks and it is now fully functional. The buttons, sound, camera, touch screen, etc... it works the way it did before. The only way the phone will turn on is if I connect it to the charger, but it will only stay on for a few mins before a red line appears across the screen and fades out then will power itself up again. If i leave it connected to the charger it will keep doing this over and over again. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or have it repaired?

I would not have it repaired. I would take it to Apple and get an out-of-warranty replacement. I believe it's $199 for the 4S.

After last update cannot send or receive emails - no connection.

Since last update a cannot send or receive emails. It is showing that Mozilla thunderbird is connecting, but it just freezes. When I close the thunderbird window, it closes, but not the program itself, since I can only start it again if I restart the computer. I uninstalled and reinstalled thunderbird, but no luck. The emails work fine through the webbrowser. I am using windows 7 sp 1.
Ypur help would be greatly appreciated.

IPad 3 bricked after IOS update, will not restore through iTunes

Hi,
I have an iPad 3 wifi/3g model that bricked after an IOS update 7.0.6. The update failed at about 70% (Apple Logo with progress line on screen) and rebooted into recovery mode. I've tried doing a restore through iTunes mulitple times and even looked at jailbreaking it but no luck. It always fails during the update and I have tried muliple computers (Windows and Mac) Different networks (Home/Work) but the issue is still there.
The device won't go into DFU mode and in itunes it shows the serial number as n/a like the iPad has no software on it at all. I've tried everything I can thing of and I've had plenty of experiences recoverying and restoring IOS devices in the past. Tinyumberlla and other utils won't get it out of recovery mode and now iTunes won't even try to load the firmware back on the device, it just fails after extracting software.
I'm thinking its now a hardware issue, does anyone have another solution to try?

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

3 Beeps After Software Update, Will Not Start

Late 2012 Mac Mini. Updated OS X with Software Update, upon restart it is instead beeping 3 beeps in a row, silence, then 3 beeps in a row again, for hours. It's getting hot near the power cord. Screen is black. I finally powered down successfully by holding power button.
I've seen older posts saying this signals faulty RAM in Powerbooks. I did upgrade the RAM to 16 GB myself when I bought the Mac mini, it has always worked fine (apart from snowy screens when it first awakes or starts which eventually go away and I understand this update was supposed to address...).
Have I voided my warranty by installing the RAM myself?
What to do?

John, thanks. I ran the Apple Hardware Test, and the memory tested fine. The three beeps at start up has not returned since the original restart after the software update, so who knows what it was...

Rember, the free GUI front end for memtest is another memory test utility to consider.
The display may or may not be related to anything. It will be difficult to draw any conclusion without another display to substitute.

Correct, there is no benefit of additional RAM unless and until your system and what you do with it requires more than you have. OS X manages its resources efficiently, and there is no way to change how it does that.
I'm still getting snow when starting or awakening the Mac when the monitor has not been recently on, so there may be some interaction between the monitor and the Mac mini. (MultiSync LCD2470 monitor.) Because when the monitor has been running for a while I can restart the Mac without getting snow, usually. Turning the monitor off and on about three or four times usually gets rid of the snowy image and I get a picture. Every now and then it will abruptly turn to complete snow after having been on for hours, so who knows... I understood the snow problems were a common problem with the Intel integrated graphics and the recent software update(s) were meant to address it. It didn't help in my case.
At least I'm back to the original functionality from before the software update...

G5, broken from last update, will not boot Leopard Disc

Hello, I'd appreciate any help.
This is in regards to a Dual 2.0 Ghz G5 Powermac purchased in May of 2005.
After updating to 10.5.5, the Powermac stopped loading Leopard. The standard gray screen with the apple would turn to a blue screen, then, unlike anything its ever done before, would then change into a lighter blue blank screen, and remain blank.
I assume a reinstall of Leopard would solve the situation, but when I hold down 'c' and try to boot on the disc, it still goes into that light blue screen (still boots from the HDD).
Instead of the standard apple USB keyboard, I use a third party RF wireless keyboard. Would this prevent me from booting into the Leopard repair disc?
I don't have a USB keyboard on me, I'd have to borrow/buy one.
Anyone else have an issue like this before? The machine has been in heavy use for over three years now and it has never given me any problems.

Hi JohnnyO;
I hope you have a backup because it sounds very much like you might have lost your disk.
It is possible that your system has managed to get itself into a state where it is not capable of reading the wireless keyboard any longer. Beg, borrow or stealing one would be good idea to see if you can get any further.
If you are able to boot it from the install media that came with it, I would suggest you start with AHT to check out your hardware first.
Let us know what you find.

After software update, will not connect to wide open wifi network at home

Fixed. Unplugged wireless router, then plugged it back in, waited for it to power up, now it works...

What model number of AirPort Extreme do you have?
What operating system are you using on your Mac?
The setup "wizard" will practically configure the AirPort Extreme for you if you use it. Were you using this utility?
Did you reset the AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings before you tried to reconfigure it to become a part of of your network?

Will not sync my phone or i pod after last update

Will not start sync when I connect my I-phone or I-pod since last update a few days ago.

Hello xtremejoe
I find that changing some settings in your syncing options will get syncing working again, like enabling Manually manage music and videos.
