My ipad 2 won't find it's current location since router change.

My ipad 2 32gb wifi won't find it's current location. I've recently changed my old router from orange with a new one from orange and now my ipad can't find current location. I've looked at the settings for both the ipad and the router and should all work. Help?

Try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.
If that doesn't fix the problem then go to Settings>General>Reset, then Reset Network Settings.

  • Map directions won't load unless using current location

    Does anyone else have this problem with the Maps app?
    If I map a location, then ask for directions to or from my "current location," the routes display immediately. But if I try to use any other location (for example, from my contacts), it displays a "Loading..." message and stalls. This happens even with a strong wi-fi connection.
    This is an iPhone 4S running iOS 5.1 with Verizon. My Maps app is using the standard view without traffic.

    Mine doesn't stall under your exact scenario... it displays the route(s) immediately.
    Try shutting down the Maps app..
    From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
    Press the red to delete the Maps app from this list.
    Press the home button twice when done.
    Restart Maps and try again
    Also, try a reset... press the home and sleep/lock buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • I'm having trouble with "maps" on Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone.  It shows my current location and hour away from where I am.  As soon as a move iPhone away from my wifi at home to cellular it shows my correct location.  No help from Time Warner.

    What can I do to get "maps" to work on my Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone when connected to wifi at home.  iPhone "maps" work fine when connected to cellular service. Maps on wifi shows me about 55 minutes away from my current location.  Very frustrating.  I called Time Warne,r my service provider, but they had no answers since they were not knowledgeable of this situation.  Anyone else having problem?  I just updated all devices to newest update.  Is that the problem.

    Did you bring your wireless router with you? If so, it's possible the iPad is getting its location through the router and the router still "thinks" it's where you used to live.
    Try taking your iPad to another location where there is wifi (such as a coffee shop). Then, try an app that uses location services. If it's accurate at another location, then the source of your problem is your router.

  • I recently lost my iPod and ive been using find my iPhone to send messages to it, my email instantly tells me that it had been displayed or it suonded off however it doesn't find it's current location. you guys think this app actually works??

    i recently lost my 3rd Gen iPod and ive been using find my iPhone to send messages to it, my email then instantly tells me that it had been displayed or it suonded off however it doesn't find the iPod's current location. you guys think this app actually works? i feel like my alerts are just bouncing back at me. please help. Thanks!

    ... AFAIC Location Services is a joke.
    With both devices sitting side by side on my kitchen table, Location Services has NEVER shown the devices to be any where close to each other, and at times Location Services has been as much as a 1/4 of a mile off between the two devices.
    Your iPod Touch has no GPS receiver so determining its location relies upon wireless routers whose location is known. Its "location" is actually that of a wireless router. Your iPhone 4 can use GPS, cellular triangulation, and Wi-Fi. One would think GPS would be most accurate but urban areas have a greater density of cells and GPS signals are easily obstructed so cellular triangulation is often more accurate.
    Therefore the two devices' locations can be expected to be different. Differences of a quarter mile are easily explained if you understand how location services works: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1975
    Skyhook Wireless (I think Apple uses its own database now): http://www.skyhookwireless.com/howitworks/
    Location Services is not a "joke"; its intended use is for basic navigation and for such applications as determining where the nearest restaurant is. It cannot tell you that your iPod is under the couch cushions and that your iPhone is in the car.

  • IPad air won't connect to Bluetooth speaker?

    My new iPad air will not connect to my Vizio Bluetooth speaker.  When I put both devices in discover mode, the speaker is listed on the iPad, but will not connect?  The speaker connects just fine to my iPhone, or to my older (original) iPad.  I have re-booted the iPad, and powered down(unplugged) the speaker, but no help. 

    Bluetooth on my iPad air won't find my android phone, but the phone has apparently paired with the iPad. They just won't talk. Same problem with my wife's iPad 4, won't discover anything at all! I know that Apple is known for not communicating with non Apple products but this is ridiculous. Any ideas? Thanks ;)

  • Just purchased new iPad.  Map app shows my current location in another city.  Can't figure out how to change to correct address.

    QUESTION - just purchased iPad 2.  Map app shows my 'current location' in another city.  I can't figure out how to correct the address.

    That is a problem with the WiFi-only iPads.  Location is determined by the routers "within reach" of your iPad.  There apparently is a database somewhere that tracks the location of routers and that is used to determine the location of the iPad.  It's been known to produce some really cockamamie results.
    In my case, it was off by a reliable 200 yards for maybe the first year that I owned the iPad.  Then it mysteriously began to recognize my actual location.

  • How can I synchronize my iPhoto events? my iTunes doesn't read them and with the app Images in the iPad I can only find Photos, Albums, Faces and Places, not Events.

    How can I synchronize my iPhoto events? my iTunes doesn't read them and with the app Images in the iPad I can only find Photos, Albums, Faces and Places, not Events.

    I had a problem a couple of months ago when iPhotos suddenly rearranged the order of my Events (Why won't iPhoto let me arrange my photos?) .  I was told "Use albums not events - events are not a good way to organize - albums and folder are designed for organisation and are very flexible".
    Haha!  I should have paid attention and read between the lines!  My iPhotos were highly organised groupings - not according to date but the way I wanted them - and it was so easy to do!  I see now that if I had them all in albums, as per the Apple Apologist suggestion, I wouldn't have this unholy mess I have been left with just to make iPhone & iCloud users happy.  I am now going through Photos and making Albums (of what used to be in my Events)  ... maybe I'll get this finished before they do another non user friendly update!

  • IPad screen won't rotate

    I have an iPad 2, out of warranty, that won't rotate (one of 150 iPads that are nearing the end of their usage cycle and will be sold at the end of the school year). It is stuck in landscape mode and won't rotate to portrait mode. In an attempt to fix it, I've tried everything short of opening it up: I've done a hard reset, I've done a system restore, and I even ran the battery clear down until nothing would come on the screen when the power button was pushed. Nothing has made any difference. (And no, the screen rotation is not locked, and no, the side switch is set to Mute, not Lock Rotation.)
    It makes me think the internal gyroscope is not functioning. Now here's where it gets interesting. I have downloaded the free Gyroscope app, on this and several other iPads for comparison. I can report two significant findings on the iPad that won't rotate properly: (1) All 3 axes of rotation on the gyroscope respond properly; and (2) the numbers on the defective iPad do not agree with the numbers on the other iPads. I.e., sitting side-by-side on a flat, level desk top, a "good" iPad reports Yaw: -173 degrees, Pitch: 0 degrees, and Roll: -1 degrees; while the defective iPad reports Yaw: 3 degrees, Pitch: 16 degrees, and Roll: -32 degrees. That leads me to believe that the gyroscope (or accelerometer) needs to be calibrated. However, I'm not aware of any facility for doing that. And furthermore, it's not clear that this has any bearing on the fact that it won't rotate.
    So... any ideas or suggestions? I am not averse to opening the device up, if there is a replaceable part. I haven't been able to find any info about such a task. My only other options are, as far as I know: Send it to Apple for replacement at $249, or sell it at a discount since it is not fully functional. Thanks in advance for any useful ideas. - JR

    Then you are not the usual user.
    If you can disassemble the iPad 2 then you may be able to replace the small custom circuit board containing the gyroscope and accelerometer chips (if you can source the part).

  • When I swipe up to get the control center on my iPad I can't find the airdrop option

    When I swipe up to get the control center on my iPad I can't find the airdrop option - I see airplay, but no airdrop

    Pay attention to the models of the ipads. For example, my ipad 2 can't and won't ever have airdrop. So if you have an older one that could be why you can't see it.

  • My ipad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but not which ones.

    My iPad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but doesn't show which 2.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • HT203167 My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install?

    My App Store icon is missing from ipad and won't re-install? You can't delete it so where is it?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My iPad apps won't open?

    My iPad apps won't open help?

    I have the same issues. My iPad 1 will not download apps or update apps.  They are constantly waiting.  I have tried logging out of iTunes, powering down iPad, then restarting and signing back into my apple account ( all through the iPad).  I found a post that mentioned updating the apps on your computer via iTunes, then uploading them onto the iPad.  However, I can't find the update apps button anywhere on iTunes to do that.  So that didn't work.  However, updating apps on my iPhone 4s and iTouch 1 still go just fine.  Im not sure when this started.  I do know that as soon as I downloaded the iOS 5.0.  It was like driving my iPad threw molasses.  The thing was and still is slow as ****.  Which is a whole other can or worms that apple needs to deal with. However, back on topic... My iPad no longer downloads apps, updates apps, and as of right now,will no longer download music that I have purchased through iTunes.  The music just sits the and says waiting to download.  NEED SOME HELP ON THIS!!!!!
