My ipad mini loses Internet connection every time it automatically locks.

My ipad mini loses Internet connection every time it automatically locks. I have to re-establish the connection but sometimes it would take too long for the Internet to be connected. I'm using a wireless connection

just browsing around I found this question. Also on my mini retina I fight with this problem. After a lot of searching I found that the only solution is to switch to
Airplane Mode, wait few seconds and switch again.
Or, if you are lucky, to find a Genius who replaces your unit. Cheers

I lose internet connection every time my computer sleeps

HI, I lose internet connectivity everytime my laptop sleeps or shuts down. why? and how do I maintain connectivity with wireless router?

If you had mountain lion, you could've used a feature called power nap. It keeps networking on even when the mac is asleep.
On other OS, I guess its bound to disconnect all networks when it goes to sleep You can try an app called Caffeine that doesn't let it go to sleep.

Macbook loses internet connection every time it is put to sleep

every time i open my macbook pro from sleep mode there is no internet connection, even though my wifi bars are full and black and my home router is found and ticked. after a 1-2 minute delay my mac then connects to the internet. this happens every time i open my laptop from sleep mode. i have to wait 1-2 mins. this has only started to happen in the last few days and is driving me mad as it shows it is connected to the internet. any ideas ?
thanks

Delete the network from your macbook, system preferences, network, select advance tab and delete it
Then Re join the Wi-Fi network you want.

IPad 2 loses wifi connection every time I connect to Apple TV

I'm a school teacher and have been using my iPad 2 for the past year on my school's wifi to mirror lessons via Apple TV. I never had any issues, until recently, whenever I mirror my iPad on Apple TV, after a few minutes, my iPad will lose connection with the wireless. The Apple TV will still have wifi connectivity, however.
I used a coworkers iPad 3 and did not have the problem using hers.
If it helps, my iOS is fully up to date, as is the Apple TV.
Thanks in advance!

I've turned it off and turned it on again, as well as hard reset. Nothing has helped.

New ipad mini retina: Safari crashes every time I hit the plus icon to open a second page

Brand new iPad mini retina, safari crashes every time it try to open a second window

Cleared and cleared then rebooted. Worked like a charm. Multiple windows open fine now, hardest part was navigating my way back here. Thanks dido ones... Bah auto correct diavonex.... Anyway, much appreciated. Just surprised it didn't work right straight out of the box, but possibly a hiccup from starting this device from a backup of my iPhone.

IPad 3 loses wifi connection ever time turned off.

    I have to reselect the network and reenter password every time I turn it back on. It just started this.

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

I Lose Internet connection each time my Mac Sleeps

I have an iMac 21" late 2009 model.
Since I installed Lion, every time my Mac "nods" after leaving it a bit, after waking up it will take about a minute for the internet connection (dsl ethernet) to come back. It's frustrating, I turn on my mac to browse the web, I open Safari but then I have to sit there waiting for the internet connection to come back.
Something is wrong and it's annoying..

If you had mountain lion, you could've used a feature called power nap. It keeps networking on even when the mac is asleep.
On other OS, I guess its bound to disconnect all networks when it goes to sleep You can try an app called Caffeine that doesn't let it go to sleep.

Ipad Mini loses wifi connection

Ipad mini, 64 GB, wifi only, brand new...I enable the internet sharing from my Mac to connect. All was fine for two weeks then today the Mini keeps dropping my wifi connection. I have reset the network settings, turned it off and on, airplane mode off/on, wifi off/on, "forgot this network" then connected again, also renewed lease. It will connect for a few minutes, then disconnect. Seems a lot of people are having this issue. Anybody have another fix? Please help this is so frustrating. Before this I was streaming Netflix with no problem.

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.

IPad stopped WiFi internet connection with Time Capsule

My wife's iPad is suddenly having a problem connecting to the internet via the Time Capsule (3rd Gen). Full strength on the WiFi icon but gets message that it cannot connect to the internet. This just started. Her MacBook Air connects fine and so does my MBP and my iPad as well as our daughter's MB and iPad. Both of our iPhones also show full wifi strength. Just my wife's iPad that suddenly is having a problem. I have tried powering down the iPad. I have tried turning the wifi on and off. I have sync'd it with iTunes and it reports that the OS is up-to-date. I used the AirPort Utility and checked the TC and it seems to be up-to-date. I also did a "Renew DHCP Lease"
The iPad is a Model MB293LL running version 4.3.5 (8L1)
The iPad Settings shows it connected to the Time Capsule with an IP Address of 10.0.1.4; Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0; Router of 10.0.1.1
When I use "About This Mac" on my MBP, it shows the TC (with Version 7.5.2) info as:
Wedgewood Time Capsule:
PHY Mode:          802.11g
BSSID:          0:19:e3:30:e3:39
Channel:          1
Network Type:          Infrastructure
Security:          WPA2 Personal
Signal / Noise:          -87 dBm / -96 dBm
Wedgewood Time Capsule:
PHY Mode:          802.11n
BSSID:          90:27:e4:5c:f6:e0
Channel:          149
Country Code:          US
Network Type:          Infrastructure
Security:          WPA2 Personal
Signal / Noise:          -81 dBm / -96 dBm

Please disregard my post...It's now connecting...go figure. Last night, I did all of the above described in my post and nothing. This morning, I do the post and then I go and do another Safari link to Apple.com and it connects.

Resetting of Internet Connection Every Time I Reconnect. PLEASE HELP !!!

Hi!
I have a MacBook running Mac OS 10.4.11 with the latest updates.
Intel Core2 Duo @ 2.16 Ghz
1 GB RAM
I am connected to the net via a wireless router (thru Airport) and PPPoE.
Recently, I have been having a problem. Each time I try to connect, the first time was OK but when I tried to reconnect a second time, the password authentication failed.
I used to go to Network Preferences and retype the password. This would work but then again now this too doesn't work.
I have to delete my location settings each time and make a fresh new location. I also used to get the message :
'NetCfgTool wants permission to change access permissions of item "PPP Password" in your keychain. Do you want to allow this?',
with the options "deny", "allow once", and "always allow" (last one is greyed out and I cannot click here)
After clicking on "allow once" I get the message 'PPPD wants permission to use the "PPP Password" item from your keychain. Do you want to allow this?'
The 'always allow' option connects it and upon any disconnection, I have to go through the same torture all over again.
This is really a pain in a place like India where net connectivity sometimes is very irregular.
If somebody has a solution, please HELP !

Hi apollorajkumar, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I think it was one of the last two Security Updates.
Go to System Preferences: Security. Check the box next to "Require password to unlock each secure system preference." Then lock Security.
Try this cure for Security update...

IOS 6.1.2 music app making an Internet connection every time launched.

I noticed that each time I open the Music app it makes a connection. I used system status to track down who owned the IP used and it's Apple. I assume it is checking for iTunes Match, but I don't have iTunes Match and it is disabled. So I logged out of iTunes & App Store single sign-on in Settings and the connection attempts stopped. But this stinks because I don't want to have to sign in and out each time so my battery isn't used by random connection. Apple's built in apps all immediately sync each time I open them, which is why I have switched to other apps that don't to save battery.
Is anyone else having this happen? Any possible solutions?

Why is this a problem?

Lose Internet Connection

I thought that my new $29 Apple keyboard caused my MBP to lose the Internet connection. Not.
I have since discovered that I lose the connection every time I shut down (or start up). I have since put Internet Connection icon in my taks bar, so I can reconnect every time I start up.
I am using a Netgear wireless router. Any suggestion as to what I can do to keep the connection? I don't think having to reconnect every single time is common.

Ginny, there are a number of threads over in the networking forum in the MacBook area on this topic. This seems to be a common issue on Intel Macs, and there are some workarounds. I've just been reconnecting when I boot up or move locations, and I'll wait for a fix.

This is a user forum so no one here would know Apple's plans. By the way the problem may very well not be Apple's.
Even if your router is "new" visit the manufacturer's support web page to see if there is a firmware update for it. Also check to see if there is a support hotline or forum.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router.
