  • IPhone 4 keeps loseing wifi connection

    Iphone 4 keeps loseing wifi connection and none of  my other household devices lose connectivity. How do I fix this?

    How do I get a new iTunes account to create a backup of what's on my wifes iPhone without deleting all the photos and stuff?

    Well, I believe I found it.....
    When I connect the IPhone the device name pops up under devices in the selection column. Right click on the device name and select "Back-up".....
    If this is incorrect please let others know as I won't be able to because my wife will have destroyed all computers in the house for losing her data.

  • Ipads losing wifi

    Lately my 3 iPads are losing wifi connectivity.
    I have 2 iPad 2 and 1 iPad mini.
    Randomly, they all lose connectivity to the internet. Turning wifi on and off on the iPad usually fixes this issue.
    My iPhone and MacBook however don't show that behvior.
    Any ideas?
    I am running a 5th generation Airport Extreme with firmware 7.6.3.
    Thanks.

    I did what you suggested. Turned off the whole network, and then tuned it back on, one device at a time.
    While at first this seemed to have solved the issue, it did and does re-occur.
    When I open my iPad from sleep and continue watching a streaming movie in Safari, after a few minutes the movie pauses by itself. Switching to Chrome to see if I can still browse the web then tells me I lost all wifi connectivity.
    Turning off and back on wifi in the settings panel fixes this. I can then resume the movie.
    It does seem to be connected to the iPad and not the AirPort Extreme, as I can still connect from my iPhone to the Internet, when my iPad lost connectivity.
    What is strange though, is that this only started to happen recently, probably shortly after I purchased the iPad mini. But then, the other two iPads in the house (version 2), also started to show this behavior.
    The only other change I remember was the upgrade of the AirPort Extreme to v. 7.6.3. My MacBookPro never loses connection, btw. The Airport's settings are the way Apple recommends them, leaving the channels on auto, using both bands for the same SSID (5.8 and 2.4ghz).
    This is now starting to annoy me.
    Anyone has more ideas?
    Thanks!

  • IPad 2 losing WiFi Router seems fine

    The device is an iPad 2, just for reference.
    About a year ago, our router went kaput, and we replaced it. I noticed, not only on the iPad but other devices, the range seemed to be not as good, with the bars one or two less. But, the internet speed didn't seem to be affected, so we didn't worry about it.
    This router works fine with all our other wireless devices, so it doesn't seem to be in the router itself. However, the iPad wifi works just fine in other locations, so it doesn't seem like the problem is the iPad either. The iPad doesn't pick up the router unless within 3 feet of it. If you move beyond 3 feet, it loses the connection entirely.
    A few weeks ago, the iPad started losing Wifi periodically, and then within the last week, it has become more and more frequent, until the point it lost Wifi entirely unless immediately next to the router.
    I know this question has been investigated about 1001 times. I have looked at numerous questions and answers, and tried them all. Updated the firmware on the router, changed the brightness settings on the iPad, tried it in Static on the iPad, Every solution that people threw out there, I have tried and it has been unsuccessful.
    Has anyone else run into this and/or found a fix?

    Some things to try first:
    1. 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.

    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • IPad Keeps Losing Wifi Connection??

    Hi,
    About 2 days ago, my iPad 2 began losing wifi connection. I would have to tap "Forget this network" and then wait a bit and then tap on the network again and type in the password. After that, the iPad would gain wifi again until about 5-20 minutes later, it loses wifi connection AGAIN. Sometimes when I did that it still didn't even work! And it also bothers me because it still has the wifi sign in the top left corner of my ipad screen, even if the wifi connection is not working. This has happened continuously throughout the past 2 days. Sometimes, the wifi would work for a good amount of time before it was gone again, and sometimes it loses connection after like 3 minutes. But all the other electronics in my house are perfectly fine, it's just my iPad 2 that's been doing this.
    I tried to tap "forget all network settings" and then restart my ipad, but that didn't help. I'm not sure if it's the iPad's problem (since all the other electronics work) or if it's the wifi.
    Please help! This is very annoying.
    (And i have a new update which is 7.1.2, but that's been there for a pretty long time bc I always forget to update it. But I don't think that's the problem.)

    Some things to try first:
    1. 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.

  • How can i back up my wifes iPhone 3GS with my iTunes ?

    I'm having problems trying to backup my wifes iPhone......
    Basically, she has been using a 3GS that was my sons some years ago.....but now that my Daughter has upgraded, we have an iPhone 4 that she can start using instead.
    However, when I connect to my iTunes, although it can see the 3GS, it doesnt give me any option to 'Backup', - which it did recently when I did the same exercise for my Daughters 'upgrade' and change of phone. (4 - 4S)
    My iTunes is only giving me the options to 'set up as a new iPhone', or Restore from the Backups of either mine or my daughter's phones.
    Is this to do with the software perhaps ?   Or does iTunes limit the number of handsets it will 'sync/backup' with ?
    Any ideas/advice gratefully received......
    Many thx .
    Chris

    Select setup as "New", the next screen should prompt you to rename your phone. Just name it what you already have it named. After that, you should be able to sync/backup and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. That message is more threatening than what really happens.

  • How do I seperate my iPhone & iPad from my wifes iPhone?

    Ok so I see a lot of answers on here that may help but not sure and Im afraid to try with out getting better info so here goes:
    My iPhone and my wifes Iphone are both on the same itunes account this worked fine until the IOS5 update. She updated her phone to IOS5 I have not in fear of crossing paths so to speak. Now when she sends imessages to people it shows up under my name or email instead of hers big problem. to add to the situation I got an ipad for Xmas and like a dope I went and plugged it in. Now it is synced to the apple ID both her phone and my phone are. Not working well because I am now getting all her text messages in imessage on my ipad.
    So question is how do I keep my iPhone and iPad under my Apple ID but create and Apple ID for her and move everything over?? And please explain in as easy terms as possible not an itunes master yet. P.S. Im working on a PC.
    Thank you in advance.

    I created two iTunes Library on the computer. How to do this, while holding shift and open iTunes, it will pop up a window asking you to choose a library or create a new library. Create a new library. Give it a name diffirent then you original one, like "wife". Then you still use the same iTunes account login and password. So you are still sharing all your iTunes purchases and the two device synchronize to two diffirent "library"! Note: in your wife account you will have to link all the music to your original music folder. In the "apps" tab now you can select (check mark) the apps that she needs on her device and you can do the same for your device.
    IMPORTANT: after you have done the library, connect her device and sync, choose all the settings she likes and make a backup. After, eject her device and close iTune. Holding shift, re-open iTunes and choose your original library ( which it should be the other name then the one you gave to your wife) and now connect your device and synch it. Then go in the "apps" tab and select the apps you want and apply that. Synch again and do a backup.
    From now on, remember to always hold shift when starting iTunes and select the library that matches the device.
    Hope this solve your problem and good luck!

    Understanding iOS device capacity
    You can sync and download many different types of content on your device. Some types of content (such as music and videos) typically take more space than others (such as notes and books). The amount of space taken by an app depends on the app's purpose; complex or graphically intense apps usually take more space than simpler apps.
    If your device is near its capacity, you can remove some of the less used content to make room for more.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • My Iphone 3gS is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging so the USB port is working properly. My wifes Iphone IS being recognized by the same laptop. My Iphone IS being recognized by the desktop computer and another laptop

    My Iphone is not being recognized in Itunes on my laptop. It is charging, so the USB port is working. My Iphone does work on another Laptop in the house and My wifes Iphone is being recognized on the same laptop that mine is not. Any suggestions?

    The key bit of information here is that one iPhone works on the computer in question and another does not. So it is unlikely that AMDS is not running or there is a driver problem; if either of these was the problem neither phone would be recognized in iTunes.
    Unfortunately, I don't have an answer either. Except to verify that both iPhones (the one that works and the one that doesn't) use the same cable and the same USB port.
    Also, are the two iPhones the same model and same iOS version?
