My ipod (version 6.1.3) was connectiong to my home wi-fi just fine until I uploaded new music from my itunes via my laptop. Now my ipod and my iphone will not connect to my wireless network. I've uplugged my wireless network and reset my network settings etc... nothing seems to work. Please help!
Does the iOS devices connect to other networks?
Does the iOS devices see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Since both iPhone and iPod stopped connecting I suspect a problem with your network. -
ive updated my iphone 4s and cannot get 3G or Wi Fi on it.Ive reset the phone turned it off updated with ITunes. Still nothing the Wi Fi button isnt moving and is a light grey colour ??
I had the same problem with my iphone 4S, ios 7.1.2. The wifi button was grayed out for some time now. I tried several methods that I found in various forums, including the reset of network settings, airplane mode, fridge and more. NOTHING!
Then I finally did what I wanted to avoid - the heating method, and it worked as follows:
1. iPhone turned on, I held a hair dryer close to it while keeping the screen on and watching it while heating the iphone with the hair dryer.
2. When the temperature warning came up on the screen, I put the iphone aside to cool up in room temperature (shut off the display). I turned it on/off couple of times until I saw that the warning was gone and normal screen came back.
3. The wifi was still grayed out.
4. I then did the network settings reset,
iphone wifi was back to normal!! -
I get a pop message that says there is a network error. The message is MODEL_ERROR_BIND. Please help. The network seems to be working fine.
You have some other problem with your boot drive that has corrupted data backed up to the TimeMacine drive.
My advice is to boot into each operating system and manually backup just your Users files each to separate regular external drives (no Timemachine or backup software) and disconnect.
Make a note of any serial numbers, emails, address book contacts, export bookmarks etc. that isn't typically in your users folders data.
You might be able to Winclone 3 the Windows as a whole thing as it's appearing not to have issues but it's your MacintoshHD partition that is so that will have to be rebuilt from scratch.
Most commonly used backup methods
If your OS X parititon doesn't boot, you can use this to recover files.
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
Without any further detail about your machine I can't advise specifically what to do, but it involves using Disk Utility to Zero Erase (move slider one spot to the right or in 10.6 using Security Option) the ENTIRE boot drive and reformatting, then installing OSX fresh and then setting up BootCamp again.
If you wish to switch your boot drive for something better, this is a good time to do this.
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
If your machine is capable of Internet Recovery, then use that, then upgrade.
If your machine came with 10.6 or earlier, then use the 10.6 install disks and work up from there.
Erase, formatting, OS X installs on Mac's -
After restoring my iPhone, photos in my text message history are gone
I recently did a restore on my iPhone (June 27th). I back up to iCloud....
I was going through my text message history, and i noticed that the photos I had sent in them were gone, and I can't seem to recover them. I just see an image with a question mark where they should be. When I try to click it (like I might be able to load it), nothing happens. The text message history is there, but not the images.
I also noticed that some pics I had recently taken were gone from my camera roll. When I restored - they were just gone... They had "spots" for the days they were taken, and when I would click on them, it would say loading, but nothing ever happened.
So, I thought the back up must have been bad, but when I try to go back to that point (27th or prior), I can't - only the 3 most recent backs up there, last night, the 3rd, and the 1st.
I've got an older backup that I did to my computer, I could maybe use that - but that was from May (I normally back up to iCloud). I thought iCloud allowed you to back up several generations - similar to time capsule on a mac.
Anyone else experience this problem? Any suggestions?every time i plug in my phone it doesnt say "sync iphone" it says restore iphone... which i have already done twice

Got a new 4S today. It has no sound at all. not a whisper. there is with headphones but none without. its as if the speaker is not working. ive tried everything can think of, reset, fiddle with sound settings etc, checked ive got sound on and volume up. any ideas?
Check the mute switch. It is located just above the volume controls. If it is displaying orange, it is on, flip it in the other direction to turn it off.

IPhone 5 cannot send text message
I live in Thailand and have an annoying problem with my iPhone5 messaging. In the first day of two I had successfully sent and received iMessage, MMS and normal SMS to other non iPhone recipients. Now after only a few days I cannot send SMS or iMessage at all to various friends.
I had reset the network settings yesterday and today I had restored factory settings then restored back from iCloud but I have exactly the same problem. When sending an SMS a red exclamation mark icon appears with a message 'Not Delivered'.
Also yesterday my provider here in Thailand sent a code in an attempt to fix this problem but that didn't work. If I need to reply to someones SMS I have to send an MMS.
Anybody have a solution yet. Do I have a faulty unit or can Apple fix this ??
Please help.I would start by disabling iMessage first and see if that helps.
You can also try resetting your network settings.
To do so click SETTINGS/GENERAL/RESET then select RESET NETWORK SETTINGS.
A third but uglier solution would be to restore your phone from a backup or as new to see if that helps.
Good luck!

Hi Marius,
If you are having an issue with being unable to send from the Messages application on your iPod touch, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I have the iphone 4 and just updated to iOS 6 and all my text messages are gone. Can I get them back?
Group messaging simply puts all replies in one conversation in Messages. It doesn't prevent the behavior you experienced.
My suggestion which would be much easier in my opinion, is rather than do a text, send out an email and use bcc: , which will keep the audience hidden from each recipient.
Otherwise, if you're determinted to do only texts, the only way is to send your message to one person at a time. You can of course copy/paste your msg each time which might be helpful. -
After sucessfully installing the new IOS 7 software on my Iphone 5, my imessage will not work. It has the message "waiting to activate". I have reset my network settings several time and turn my phone off and back on. What else can I do to get the imessage back up and running?
To sync an iOS 7 device you need to be running iTunes 11.1.1; iTunes 10.6 is way too old and won't work. You need to install iTunes 11.1.1, but to do that you need to be running at least Mac OS X 10.6.8.
So you need to do the following:
1. Upgrade your Mac to at least OS X 10.6.8 (later preferably, but 10.6.8 at the miniumum).
a. Check first to see if your model Mac can be upgraded, check that it has enough RAM and so forth (2GB at the least, more if possible).
b. If you can't upgrade your Mac, or don't want to, then you will have to buy a new Mac with the latest version of OS X (currently 10.8.5, soon to become 10.9) and iTunes 11.1.1
2. Install iTunes 11.1.1 on your newly upgraded Mac.
3. Sync your iOS 7 iPhone with iTunes. -
My brother and I phone number is link together on the same iTunes and Icloud therefore I am getting all his text messages on my phone, how do I stop this? He does not even have an Iphone anymore.
Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

My ipod is dead. I have tried resetting but to no avail. I have attached it to itunes and it sees the ipod is bad, but it still can't seem to work. How do I get it fixed?
Its probably just as you said, it's dead. I mean the battery.
I have a second generation iPod and the battery doesn't hold a charge long. So yours must be really struggling with the battery.
You can send it off for a battery replacement, or as is expected due to the cost of doing that and with standard manipulative business thinking, you could just get a new iPod like a good little customer. -

i hav an iphone 4s and its wifi is greyed out (dimmed). I tried by resetting the network settings and also restarted my device but it didn't worked. but i haven't unlocked my phone yet and im running it in ios 6.1.3. now wat to do?
Just an update it is a hardware issue and very common for iPhone 4s. I have to get my phone rewired which basically means new wireless chip. The amount of money I spent on buying an iPhone I should not expect to have anyway hardware problems happening. Make sure you have a warranty as luckily I've saved myself from spending more money to get this problem fixed.
