My ipad keeps dropping my home network wifi signal, what is the problem?

My ipad, iphone and apple tv all keep dropping the wifi signal from our wireless router, i have tried two different router and had our isp here to try to fix the problem with no success, what can be done?

I have an IPad 1 that is dropping the connection multiple times a day. There are multiple other devices in the house; 4 iPhones, pc and dell laptops, an IPad 2, etc. and they never drop. Could it be that these devices are not intended to last past two years? I am going to go to a factory reset.

My computer crashed hard drive was replaced and now I have lost my music. Am trying to sync with my music from my iPad and iPhone but it is not working what is the problem

I need help please! My computer crashed lost all data including my music. Want to sync music from my ipad and/or iphone but it is not working. What could be the problem how do I tackle it?

Syncing only works from your computer to your iPad/iPhone, not the other way around. So you can only transfer your purchased music from the iPhone to your computer.

My computer crashed lost all data including my music.
How bad was the crash? Had the drive to be replaced? Or is there a possibility to use data recovery software on that drive?

I bought my iPhone 5 three months ago and it keeps freezing, especially after making calls. What is the problem?

Not sure what to do. Will Apple Support cover it? Will it need to be replaced?

I have had the same problem. Between 8-10 minutes into a call the phone freezes and drops the call. I cannot do ANYTHING for about 45 seconds while it says CALL ENDING. I cannot use the phone at all and if anyone tries to call me it goes straight to VM. I am on my 3rd iPhone 5 now due to this issue and another issue of a bad speaker. I have restored, restarted, spent hours setting it up as a brand new phone all for not. It still drops the call and freezes. Makes me so mad.

Why does my generation 1 ipad keep dropping off

Why does my ipad keep dropping off. It is generation 1.

Dropping of of what - wifi? When you ask a question you need to provide enough info to get an answer.
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 droping 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

Why does the sound on my new iPad keep dropping out

I have done some trouble shouting following a few threads but for some reason the sound on my new iPad keeps dropping out every min or so for afew seconds. Tried to reboot the router and also reset wifi settings on the iPad. I am also having problems connecting to wifi intermitant as this may be it is frustrating.
Is this a known issue and do apple have a fix?
Thanks for any help

No not at all if the music is downloaded only when using wifi

How do I get my iPad to remember my home network? I already switched on the "automatically join known networks"

turn off all of the ipads, (not put them to sleep but turn them off) then unplug your Wi-Fi router for 2 mins. Plug it back in and when all the lights are (green or blue, depends on who makes the router) turn on one ipad and then connect it, wait 3 mins and turn on the other and connect it, do this for each iPad and it should fix the problem.

My 2 gen iPad keeps dropping my AirPlay connection with my 2 gen Apple TV. I just updated to iOS 8.1. Before the worked flawlessly. I love AirPlay. Also my iPhone 5s has the exact same issues with 8.1.

My 02 gen iPad keeps dropping the AirPlay connection after several minutes of play. This happened after updating to iOS 8.1. This worked perfectly on my 2 gen Apple TV before the update. It is also doing the same thing on my iPhone 5s. I use AirPlay all the time. Please help.

Greetings rdobbins01,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that AirPlay is not working as you would expect on either your iPhone or iPad. In this situation, I would suggest reading over and working through the information located in the attached article to help resolve this issue.

My new Macbook won't connect to my wifi network - it keeps saying "password incorrect" - but I've tested it on my phone and works fine, I've checked the password I enter is correct digit for digit - what could the problem be?

My new Macbook won't connect to my wifi network - it keeps saying "password incorrect" - but I've tested it on my phone and works fine, I've checked the password I enter is correct digit for digit - what could the problem be?

you need to open the keychain access located in your utilities folder in the applications and once in the keychain on the left side click on the words system at the top and in the lower section click on passwords
next look in the striped area for any passwords that say airport network password next to kind and highlight those and hit delete on the keyboard to remove them from the keychain.
once you remove all of these airport passwords, quit the keychain
turn wifi off then back on, select your wifi network from the list and enter the password telling it to save to keychain this should resolve your issue!

My iPad drops in all apps regurarly down. What is the problem?

iPad is drop down all the time in all apps. What is the problem?

This helps most of the time:
hold the Power button AND the Home button at the same time, keep holding,
ignore everything on the screen, keep holding until you see the white Apple logo, then let go and let the iPad start fully.

I'm going to guess videos buffer for a while also...
Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
To close apps: Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
To solve internet problem, contact your provider. Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies. Your router may be old and slow.

My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

My iPad is logged into my iCloud account, but my wife's iTunes. I have uploaded video footage from my iPhone to my iCloud. It appears on the iPad but is not accessible in iMovie? What's the fix?

You shouldn't have to change your iTunes account to not have to purchase it twice. If your devices are using different iTunes IDs, just purchase it on one device, then import it to your iTunes library by connecting the device to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Once in iTunes, you should be able to sync it to your other device (assuming both devices are syncing with the same iTunes library). (And even if they were syncing with separate libraries, you could use Home Sharing to copy the app from one library to the other.)
Or, am I missunderstanding something?

I assume my Apple TV should allow me to view all events, albums and slideshows in my iPhotos app but it only allows four events and four albums to display on my television. I'm using a Optus mini Wi Fi for my home network. Could this be the reason for limited access via my iMac computer?

No, I have not chosen photos to share as I assumed that the Apple TV would access all photos and music that are stored on my iMac.
Thanks for your advice. I will check it out.
