Is it possible to hard wire an ipad to the Internet if no wireless is available in Europe
We are traveling and the cottage we will be staying just indicates "high speed Internet available". Is there any type of adapter that will allow a hard wire to the Internet?
If it's wifi then you shouldn't have any issue. If it's an ethernet type connection then you could use an Airport Express with the cable, and the iPad should then see it as a wifi-network.

I am unable to connect my IPad to the internet via WiFi, when asked for a password then attempt to join I get the messag "unable to join the network" however if I use my laptop in the same physical locationand using similar procedures I am able to conect.?
What router are you using? make/model/version
What security type are you using? If it is WEP then symbolic (non hex) keys may be converted to hex in different ways by different operating systems. Is your laptop a Windows PC?
If you are using WEP then drop it and move to WPA2. WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi alliance since 2004 as insecure (it can be hacked in seconds). -
When I purchased my iphone and ipad last week they told me I would connect the ipad to the internet through the phone but can get niether the phone nor the ipad to see the internet?
Connecting the iPad to the internet via the iPhone is done by setting up a personal HotSpot, but you have to have that supported by your carrier and have to have established the account to do so.
On the iPhone, Settings > General > Network > Set Up Personal Hotspot -

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Why does my iPad lose the Internet connection ?
Why won't my iPad battery recharge? Sent this message before & would
I didn't do the most recent upgrade as I had problems with it when I did the previous one. I have the IPAD WI-FI 32GB . It seems to be charging ok . I did a Sync yesterday and now it won't connect to the Internet although it was working fine last evening and I didn't change any settings.
When I plug it in to my iMac, the iPhoto applicaiton opens and I have to open the iTunes application even though I have it set to open when I connect the iPad.
Appreciate any help or suggestions you can offer. Thank you in advance. -
What should I do if the internet is working in my house and computer and not working on the ipad?
Upgraded to IOS5 and could not connect my iPhone and my iPad to Internet from home, while everywhere else it worked.
Reinstalled everything, tried every trick I read (static IP, bought new router, ...) and none worked.
Finally fixed the problem by changing the DNS and Search Domain from these instructions: http://techinch.com/2011/02/04/change-your-dns-settings-on-iphone-ipod-touch-and -ipad/ -
Possible to tell which programs are accessing the internet? Bandwidth?
I seem to have intermittent, severely limited access to the internet at times.
Is it possible to tell if a particular program running in the background is either downloading or scanning or "online" in some manner...?
Is it possible on a Mac to see how much bandwidth, memory, cpu cycles, etc. particular programs are taking...in a window similar to that which opens on a PC after pressing CTRLALTDEL ?
thank youCheck out Activity Monitor in your Applications/Accessories folder.

Why can't I connect my iPad to the Internet on a University campus?
I have already read some of the discussions regarding this problem, however is it something the university should be addressing or is it fixable by going through various settings within the iPad. Can someone who knows of a tried and tested solution please let me know, as an iPad at uni is of no use if it cannot connect to the uni wifi and access the Internet.
Hi,
You will need to provide more details in order for us to understand the problem.
Are you in wifi range? Is school network open or password protected? If it's password protected do you know the password? Etc, etc -

It is possible to turn your old ipad to the app's to your new iPad 2
is it possible to get your app from ipad to ipad2
If you just want the apps then you can either sync them from your computer's iTunes or, if they are still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy/download them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
If you want there content (e.g. game progress) then you will need to backup the first iPad and then restore the second iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content. -
WiFi connections no longer working on Iphone and guest's Ipod Touches. How do we remedy this problem. The Ipad2 and hardwired computer are working with no problem
I had the same problem -- only iphones couldn't access wifi all of a sudden. I solved it this morning by uploading a previous firmware version to my Time Capsule. The solution was offered in a different discussion in the iphone section, which I found at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15180888#15180888 :
Eureka thats the problem
The iOS 4.3.2 and 4.3.3 for iphone is not compatible with the firmware 7.5.2 for apple airport extreme and time capsule. If the WiFi router is an apple airport with firmware 7.5.2 an iphone with the updated firmware will not be able to detect and connect to the WiFi network.
Solution The iphone firmware can not be downgraded, the airport firmware has to be downgraded
1) Make sure that the settings of your Airport Extreme are in mixed a/b/n mode
2) Open Airport Utility
3) Select Upload Firmware from the BaseStation menu
4) If you current version is 7.5.2, click Upload Firmware
5) Select 7.5.1 from the pop up menu
6) Restore Firmware
Now the WiFi network is detected and connected perfectly as before upgrading the iphone to 4.3.3.

How do I upload docs off my iPad onto the internet
I am trying to apply for a job and I need to upload my resume on their website but when I click the browse button it only allows me to upload a picture. Please help
If you've authorised your iTunes account(s) on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to copy iTunes purchases via File > Transfer Purchases. For non-iTunes purchased music, if you haven't got a backup of content on external drives, CDs, DVDs etc, then you will need to see if there are any third-party programs that can copy content from your iPad to your computer

Why do I have to be beside my modem to use my iPad for the internet
I am with eircom broadband and I have been having problems with my connection. the iPad that I have is the iPad 2 and I can only use my wifi/internet when I am up close beside my modem. today I rang eircom and told them about my issue and they upgraded the download or something and told me to choose a different Chanel number that I was using and nothing has changed. I don't know if it's a problem with my broadband or if it's to do with my iPad. I have an iPod touch 4th generation and I kind of have the same problematic it but it's not as bad, I'm able to be further away from my modem than with my iPad. Ive asked other people about it who have had this problem and they said it's to do with my router but I'm not sure if that's what eircom told me my problem was. if you could tell me if the issue with it can be something to do with my iPad do you know what I need to do?
Have you tried connecting to another router/network?
