IPhone 5 and iPad 3 won't update.

I ignored the software update released in Jan and now can't update to iOS 6.1 let alone 6.1.2.
Both iPhone and iPad have the same error message whenever I try...
"iOS 6.1 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the Internet."
I am, however, connected to a working WiFi connection.
Anyone else having this problem or have any solutions?

Has the download in iTunes finished ? Apple server may be heavily loaded.
Alternatively Download and save iPhone 5 - 6.1.2 firmware from a trusted source. theiphonewiki.com being one. Connect phone to comp. In iTunes press Option+Restore (Mac) or Shift+Restore (PC), point to downloaded .IPSW file.

My iPhone 5c and iPad mini won't charge. Can both charger ports be broken at the same time?

MMy iPhone 5c is dead and wont charge. My iPad mini also won't charge. So I thought it was my charge wire or charging block might be the proble. I've used other wores and other blocks and also plugged it into by laptop and neither are charging. So it would see that the charging port is broken on both. But it seems odd that both would break on the same day. Both are under a year old and I only ever use official Apple charging devises. Help!

Good day Hollixd,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPhone 5c and iPad mini are not charging. It does seem odd that both devices are not charging from multiple chargers.
There are a few more steps that may help you charge your devices. Next, I'd try steps 1, 2, 4 and 5 from the article If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
If your devices still don't charge after trying all of these steps, the article suggests contacting Apple Support:
If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
Sincerely,
Jeremy

TS3581 iphone 3gs and ipad 2 won't bluetooth connect to my laptop

I can't get my iphone 3gs and my ipad2 to connect to laptop using bluetooth

You are in some luck. Google "GNS 5870 MFI". It is a Bluetooth GPS that works with iPad. Cost $99.99 on most sites. There is also a product called "Bad Elf" that connects to the docking pins that gives GPS functionality to the iPad. I own neither so can't vouch for them but there are quite a few reviews for both products. Good luck!

IPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 won't update to iOS 5?

Hey, I have an iPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 that are both running. 4.3.5 and I am trying to update to iOS 5. I downloaded it for both devices and clicked update, it backs up the device, extracts software, and then say verifying restore with Apple. Then a message pops up saying, "Your device could not be restored. Your device is not eligible for the requested build" and it wont go any further for both devices. I have iTunes 10.5 and all the latest software on the Mac and no security software. I have also tried deleting the .ipsw files for both and re-downloading but that wont work. HELP PLEASE!!!

Okay nevermind, I feel stupid, I had set up those two devices on my previous laptop and thats why it wouldn't sync.

From this Sunday afternoon one of my two e-mail addresses/ accounts, on both my iphone 6 and ipad, won't download e-mails.

Urgent as run own business and can't access e-mails except through internet connection.
Can anybody help or does anybody else have same problem please?

Perfect this will get me by and works for me. Many thanks. If you hear of a solution for the e-mail installed ie the envelope please let me know. Thank you for getting me going again.

I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.

I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? How can this problem be solved?

Dear all,
I am new to this community even though I have been a Apple user for years, so please forgive me if this question is not in the right section.
Has anyone encountered drastic shorter battery life both on iphone 5 and ipad since updating to iOS 6.1.2? I've always been happy with these two products until the update - now the battery life is considerably shorter which is extremely frustrating.
How can this problem be solved? Is there any way to go back to the previous version?
Thanks for your help.

If you update using iTunes the phone is first wiped clean, then the new OS is installed, and finally the backup is restored. After this finishes if you sync your music should be restored. Music is not in the backup, because it is already on your computer and duplicating it would use up a lot of hard disk space.
An OTA update just patches what has changed; it does not disturb content.

I have updated to lion. Set up an iCloud so contacts and calendar are shared between iMac iPhone 4s and iPad 1. But iTunes is telling me to update the software on the iPad and iPhone, but it just gets stuck contacting the software server. What should I do

I have updated my iMac to lion so I can use iCloud to share contacts and calendar between iPhone 4s and iPads 1. Somehow it seems to have worked although still not sure how to move stuff in and out of iCloud. iTunes is telling me to update the software on the phone and iPad. When I try to do this it just gets stuck with a box saying connecting to software update server. This has never happened before. I cannot update or restore either the phone or the iPad in iTunes although I have synced the info. What should I do?

Something went wrong with the update, this can and does happen with every version of iOS.
There is nothing wrong with the update.
Simply restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If iTunes is stating it will take hours to update, that indicates an extremely slow Internet connection and is likely the reason the OTA update failed.

HT4623 after the ios 7.0 update my iphone 4s and ipad keep switching in between the home screen and the apple loading screen, can anybody help?

Can anybody help with the above?
i.e
both my iphone 4s and ipad switch in between the home screen and the apple loading screen
Many thanks

I would connect each device to a power source, and then reset them by holding the power button and the home button until they turn off.
If it keeps happening, I would put the devices in recovery mode and restore them with iTunes.
This article will help with that if needed:

My new Nanno 7 is not recognized by itunes. Removed, reinstalled and updated itunes. Iphone 5s and ipad 3 sync w/o problems. Itunes diagnostics says it isn't recognized by itunes. I'd really like to get some music on it.

My brand new nano 7 is not recognized by iTunes. I ran diagnostics and it stated under "Device Sync Test" that "no device found". My iPhone 5s and ipad 3 all sync without issue. The online chat with Apple didn't work either. I have uninstalled, reinstalled iTunes and have the latest update. Any suggestions?

Hi, bbarden.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below. Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

IPhone 5 and iPad 2nd gen weak wifi pick up after iOs 8.0.2 update

Hi,
I have had my iPhone 5 since September 2012 when it first came out and had never have any problems with it with regards to picking up wifi signal. I had battery issues as the phone got older but it didn't really bother me and I had it sent over to Apple to have the sleep/wake button issue resolved about two weeks ago. Since then, I have purchased the iPhone 6 and gave my old iPhone to my husband. As I'm the one who deals with all the gadgets, I do the updating stuff. My iPhone 6 is on the latest iOs 8.0.2 and it doesn't have any problem whatsoever. My iPhone 5 and iPad 2nd gen (3g + wifi) also had the latest iOs update and both have recurring problems now. Both have problems picking up up wifi signals. Even when I have the iPhone 6 next to them, which has full bars (wifi), the two older gadgets are struggling to pick any signal at all. And if they actually get onto the internet, I only get 1 bar and the internet surfing on them are as sluggish as ever. The battery on the iPhone 5 has drastically gone downhill as well. I have tried to change the WPE/WPA2 connection on the router but it is still the same. I even tried to "Forget the network" and logged in manually again to no avail. The keychain thing on iCloud has been turned off but no change has been noticed. Is there anything else I can do to have this issue resolved? Thanks in advance!

HHowever, I am still looking for a way to bypass the "connect to iTunes" logo since I am in a location with only my iPad and I need to use my phone
