My iPad 4 needs to be right beside my router to get 3 bars. When I walk 15 feet away from my router, I get 1 bar with terrible download and upload speed.
I get no connection from being away 20 feet from the router, my iPod 5 gets 2 straight bars but my iPad 4 gets no connection and it:s right beside my iPod 5 too. what the ****??! I got a iPad 4 running iOS 7.0.4. I charged it and it"s acting wonky. I reset network settings and that didn't work at all. any other ways Apple nerds?
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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
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.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account. I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?
Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

I can't print using airprint from my iPhone 4. Everything with the phone and the printer and router are up to date. I can print from my iPad 2 with no problems. What's wrong with the iPhone 4?
I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

I shot a video using my iPad 2, and it is too far away from the subject. How do I zoom in and save the whole video like that? Thanks!
Sorry to be such a moron with this, but I just don't have much experience with this iPad. I have had it for over a year and I just keep adding stuff to it and it has worked great. Now that the memory is used up, I am trying to figure out how to free up space and not lose what I have paid for.
So, Step 1 is complete, as I have "Transferred" all of the purchases.
What is Step 2? I unchecked the concert on the iTunes library, did a sync, but it's still on my iPad.
Thanks again for the help!!! -
I bought my iPad in USA. It was set up over there.i live in Ireland.when I try to buy from apple store it doesn't accept my details and says I must put in my USA address.can this be changed?
Walk it into the nearest Apple Store there in Ireland, admit you purposely avoided buying it there, and ask them to help you sort it out. I'm sure they'll be happy to service your overseas purchase.....

Need to have the keyboard and mouse 100 feet away from Mac
I need to have the Keyboard and Mouse/Track-pad 100 feet away from Mac Mini.
What are my options ?
ThanksIn your case with the need to control it from multiple locations the best and realistically only solution is to use Screen Sharing to remotely control the Mac.
With this solution you can control it from anywhere you have a network connection and could use a laptop to control the Mac mini. This is the solution I use in a very similar situation.
Bluetooth does not have enough range, even RF wireless keyboard and mice devices also would not have the range, and I don't believe there is a suitable USB solution.
The only other possibility that occurs to me is to use an IP based KVM. A KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch box allows multiple computers to be controlled from typically a single keyboard and mouse. However there are versions which allows you to do this over a TCP/IP network i.e. Ethernet. Then again you would be able to do this anywhere on your network. Here is one example - http://www.aten-usa.com/products/productItem.php?model_no=CN8600
Personally I still strongly recommend using Screen Sharing. Its built-in and completely free! -

You need Snow Leopard before you can go to Lion...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements...

my customers have question to me about your products when used 3G
such as the maximum download ? , compatible 3G mobile internet connectivity which one?
i need real information form you about any product which compatible 3G such as any model of iphone, ipad
1. model
2. 3g frequency compatible
3. maximum download with used 3G (my customer speed test)
mail to me : [email protected]
regards,
yossaprous srithanavutRead the technical specifications Apple posts for each model of iPhone and iPad they sell. That will provide you with all the information anyone here can provide about the devices themselves. Actual upload and download performance will depend on the specific cell carrier, the technology they use, the specific cell you happen to be connected to, and a number of other factors.

Can I watch a DVD o my TV from my laptop with an adapter and HDMI cable or do I need an audio cable as well?
A seperate audio cable isn't required for your MBpro model. It will send audio over the HDMI cable if you use the proper MiniDisplay port to HDMI adapter that supports audio.

I can not get my wi-fi to work away from home. what security do i need to use confused
i don't understand wi-fi
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi. At the bottom, make sure the "Ask to Join Networks" is ON. When you are out and about, any network the iPad sees will be shown and it will ask you if you want to "Join" it. If it is unsecure/free you tell it yes and you should connect. However, if there is a little padlock looking icon shown with the network name, it means that it is a secure network and you need a password to join. If you don't know it, you can't join. At most Starbucks and such, the Wi-Fi is free and you should be able to simply connect. Not really that hard. There are not security settings on your iPad to adjust. You'll figure it out.

As a new user of Apple TV, I need some assistance.When I rent a movie on iTunes and download for viewing later, say a day or two later, It seems to load itself all over again with a msg saying ready to view in 25 mins ! So having waited the 25 mins movie starts and runs for maybe 1 hour and the pauses for maybe 5 mins while it seems to load again . any help appreciated
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you use the Apple TV for something else or turn it off it will erase whatever is on it's drive. If you are going to download content for later viewing you might consider doing it on the computer, downloads don't disappear until they expire and you can watch them as many times as you want. -
