Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Got new iPad Air tried to setup using iCloud but because the iOS was not up to date I couldn't setup as same as old iPad

    Got iPad Air and 5s and tried to use iCloud to set them up but because the iOS was not up to date I had to set up as new, and now I can't get them to be the same as old phone and ipad2. I have got some contacts and some calendar entries bug no apps or pictures etc

    What you would do is set up your new one. Don't try to restore it from the backup, just set it up, update it and then wipe it (settings, general, erase all content and settings)
    then set your new ipad up again but this time choose to restore it from the backup of your old one.
    Basically you set it up just enough to download and update it, then you wipe it and restore it.

  • Trying to connect to iTunes but says i need to restore iphone!  HELP!

    A few month ago my pc's hard drive crashed. I have since got it fixed with a new hard drive and with Windows 7 (previously I had XP).
    I have just downloaded the new version of iTunes and when I connect my iphone a pop up appears stating that iTunes cannot read the content of my iphone and that it needs to be restored to the factory settings.
    Is there anyway of fixing this problem without having to restore my iphone? If there is no alternative is there a way of saving everything? I haven't done a back up or upgrade in oer 4 months.
    Your help is much appreciated. Thanks

    Unfortunately, no. If iTunes is giving you that message, there is data or code seriously corrupted in your phone, or there is hardware damage. The only solution is to restore as instructed. This is the downside of not backing up.
    Out of curiosity, why did you not install iTunes and backup right after you replaced your HD and OS on your computer?
    The only alternative for saving some data (the backup) is to obtain a 3rd party app for windows that can backup and restore some of it independently of iTunes. There are several of these - Google is your friend to find them. The caveat is that if your iPhone flash drive is corrupted, those apps may not work properly either.

    I have (sorry forgot to add that). I was switched around and finally I was told I would be put through to a supervisor but after being on hold for about 10 minutes the phone went dead, I did not lose connection so I do not know if I was hung up on or there was some technical difficulty. I called again yesterday and did in fact speak with a supervisor for Account Security but he told me he did not know why it was happening and put me through to a different number but that ended up not being any helpful either. That's when I decided to give it a shot on here!

  • MacBook Air keeps trying to connect to old server

    My new MacBook Air, just like its predecessor iBook, keeps trying to connect to an old server which I am not using (having moved to a different continent!). I have tried deleting it using Finder - Go - Conneact to Server, but it persists. It flashes up the error messaage: "There was a problem connecting to the server XXX. The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again." I have done all this, but it makes no difference. Can you help please? I use a Time Capsule as my router, with an AirPort Express booster in another room, and my main iMac desktop does not have this problem. The old network was in use in the UK, and I will want to connect to it there when I visit from time to time.
    Many thanks
    John

    Check the Login Items in the Users & Groups section of system Preferences for a reference to this old server. If it is there highlight it and click the Minus ( - ) button.

  • OS keeps trying to connect to server

    Hi - When I'm home I often connect to a local server on my LAN.
    But when I travel, I get this system notification over and over:
    There was a problem connection to the server "Media Center".
    The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the
    server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.
    For some reason my system keeps trying to connect to the server. I can't see why. This message keeps happening even after rebooting, before I load any applications. I can't figure out where in my system that server request is stored and how to stop it.
    I've scoured the console logs but can't find any references to my server's name.
    Anybody know how I can stop this? The dialog box is annoying and takes focus away from whatever I'm working on.
    Thanks in advance...

    OK, I found the problem. I'm posting in case anyone else needs help.
    Back when Mountain came out it removed colors and distinctive icons from the sidebar, replacing them with grey generic icons. I, like many others, hated the new look, so I installed a program (Side Effects) that uses SIMBL to restore the colored sidebar. It worked, I was happy, and I forgot about it.
    With Mountain Lion, apparently there is a more complex interaction, and SideBar/SIMBL somehow kept trying to mount a particular local server. It succeeded when I was home, but when I would disconnect, it would reconnect on relogin.  When I travel, after reboot it keeps giving me a "Cannot Connect to Server" failure message (it stops after a while).
    LSS, I uninstalled SIMBL and everything works as it should. I really miss the colored sidebar but at the moment I'm not motivated to wrestle with the hacks necessary to restore it. I wish Apple would do so but it ain't gonna happen. I'll have to learn to live with the ugly sidebar.

  • Macbook pro keeps trying to connect to an old server

    I have a macbook pro, just updated to OSX mavericks, when I turn the machine on, it will keep trying to connect to an old server that no longer exists (a windows pc I had at home I called "estudio"); how can I fix this? where is that the OS keeps the list of servers that the machine has been connected to? I already went through the option of "deleting all the list of recent servers" on the Connecting to a Server window.

    I already tried rebooting, and I tried hooking it up to itunes as well, no luck there either.

    Try to reset all settings.
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.  It won't delete your data.
    When you say reboot, do you mean you pressed the home and sleep button at the same time until it restarted?

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Hello Steve
    The simple and quick fix is right-clicking on that little Safe icon in the system tray (near the system clock) and choose Stop Backup/Synchronization. Do you see that icon?
    Turn it on and off as needed. Did this work for you?

  • My iPad keeps refusing to connect to my pc network. can't download from iTunes store.

    mi iPad keeps refusing to connect to my pc/wifi network. can't download anything from iTunes, even just using it on my iPad.  even if I plug my iPad into my pc.  anyone know how to fix this?  please help!  thanks!

    How about some details on your network?
    What make/model router are you using?
    Does your router have the latest firmware from the manufacturer?
    What security type (WEP, WPA, WPA2) are you using?
    What happens when you try to connect?
    Does your iPad work on other networks, i.e., Borders, Starbucks, etc.?
    As a stopgap it is possible to download iTunes store content from the iTunes program on your PC and sync that to your iPad (music, apps, videos, etc).
