My Ipad Mini will no longer connect to wi-fi

My iPad mini will suddenly no longer connect to any wi-fi network. At home all our other iPads and iPhones still work. But this problem one won't recognise the password on my home or any other wi-fi network. I can't even backup the device into iTunes (connecting by cable into a laptop) as I get an error mesaage.
I've tried rebooting the router, powering off the iPad, resetting factory settings etc. I've read on other forums that this is a known problem with iPad minis. Is this correct?  Is there a fix or do I need to get it replaced?

If the above doesn't work, try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing, Wall Paper, Sound etc will be reset

    Hello dchoffa,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I would start with this troubleshooting from the article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your W-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    If the above troubleshooting does not resolve the issue, I would next try the troubleshooting in one of the other sections down toward the bottom that fits your scenario.

  • My iPad mini can no longer connect to verizon cellular data network.

    My ipad mini no longer communicates with the Verizon network,I can see the signal strength is good but no connection,yes I have paid the bill it shows I have plenty of data usage left. I called Verizon to see if there were network issues in my area,but there is not. They opened a trouble ticket for tech support to track,I have not heard back after 3 days. It has worked great for about a year now,just wondering if others have experinced this. I purchsed from a major retailer with a 2 year warranty extention so I have a year left for service/replacement,fortunately.

    Not sure but you might have tried this but it wasn't specifically mentioned.
    Turn off Wi-Fi. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. You should or might see No Service in the upper left corner of the iPad. Wait a little while to see if that changes. If it turns to the signal strength indicator then attempt to connect to the internet to see if your data works. If it does you can turn Wi-Fi back on.
    You might consider having your iPad examined by a technician. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • My iPad 2 will no longer connect to wi fi network

    I've tried turning off router, "forget network", hard reset. My daughter's ipad2 is unable to join our home network yet my iPad works fine and my iMac connects fine. Other daughter's iPad mini works fine. Problem is isolated to this one device. Any suggestions....

    The message we get is "unable to join network." Her iPad worked at school just fine and until yesterday, worked at home fine.

  • My iPad mini will no longer log into iTunes or any AppleID app since upgrading to iOS 8.1. Any suggestions?

    My son upgraded his iPad mini a couple of weeks ago to iOS 8.1. The internet and everything else still works but he has not been able to log into iTunes for anything since. When we log in it says "cannot connect to iTunes store". We have confirmed the password and it still works of our other devices. We have confirmed his devices is still enabled under the Apple ID. Suggestions?

    I wish that had worked. I logged off from the setting on the mini and on my main computer. I got the same message that it cannot log into the store. I was able to log back in on my computer though.

  • My iPad mini will no longer play you tube videos....any suggestions?  I have updated and restored and still no better.

    I have done a back up, update and restore.  It's no better.  Just a black screen with a fuzz line through it.  I have an appointment with apple tomorrow, but hoped I could fix this issue myself.

    Hello Jdhk5253,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the YouTube app on your iPad mini.  I recommend the steps in the article below.  You can skip the step to install another app from the App Store and any other steps you have already taken:

  • My ipad will no longer connect to the internet. Everything else does.

    My ipad 1 will no longer connect to the internet. Everything else does. and nothing new was done to the ipad. It's running ios 4 and was fine since the day it came out.

    Emma-
    In Safari, press on the Bookmarks icon and select History.  Then press on Clear History at the top of that menu, and see it there is any improvement.
    If not, try unplugging your WiFi router for a few seconds.  Then reset the iPad's network.  Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings.  You will need to reconnect the iPad to WiFi.

  • Configurator, iPads update iOS will no longer connect to network

    Managing 30 iPad 4s with Bretford cart, Mac Mini.
    On a recent update to iOS 7.0.4, it seems that not all of my iPads took it nicely. Only 3 worked like I expected in fact, and function as they did before. 27 others will no longer connect to the network I had deployed as a package in Configurator. In fact, they went back to the beginning welcome / setup screen for the OS reload.
    Is there something that I can try before I just set these all to erase and re-prepare them?

    Update: I unplugged all, and manually plugged in one iPad.
    I unsupervised, and prepared it again, reloaded all the apps, and got the same result.
    Once the iPad shows up in Configurator as prepared, and in my supervised list, it seems good to go: BUT
    as soon as I turn it on, it shows me the "Hello" welcome screen, asks to join the network, and seems to freeze. The iPad goes to sleep without it receiving a connection.

  • My ipad will no longer connect to the laptop. it comes up with usb not recognized. also when trying to connect to the power the first time i connect, nothing, but when i unplug from ipad and plug in a second time it charges

    my ipad will no longer connect to the laptop. it comes up with usb not recognized. also when trying to connect to the power the first time i connect, nothing, but when i unplug from ipad and plug in a second time it charges

    yeah tried all that. the only thing that i havent tried is to delete itunes completely and restart. its the same with the ipad. i havent done a master reset. i just think it has to be something rather simple as it acknowledges that i have plugged in the ipad as it makes the noise it just come up usb not recognized. it shows up as an unknown device that doestn have  any drivers
    its driving me round the bend at the minute

    Hi,
    When Zeen's battery level goes below 5 %; it tends to Reset to Default where it looses all the connections and sync to the printer or router.
    So its very important to make sure that Zeen's battery does not go to low. To avoid this I would suggest to charge Zeen regularly.
    You may try the steps below as of now and check the results.
    We need to Factory Reset the Zeen making sure it is connected (Docked) on the C510a printer.
    Once it is docked try the steps below:-
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02844556&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
    Open the above link; and then perform the Factory Reset as shown in Solution Two.
    Once completed try connecting to Wireless and check the results.
    though I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

  • My Mini pairs but will no longer connect to my speakers.

    My Mini will pair to my bluetooth speakers but will no longer connect to them. I've tried restarting the computer, deleting the speakers as a device and rediscovering and pairing them,. They will connect to my iPhone so the problem seems to be with the computer.

    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

  • Will an iPad mini with retina display connect to a digital projector?

    Will an IPad mini with retina display connect to a digital projector for presentations?

    Yes, certainly. Depending on the projector's inputs, you'll need one of these adapters:
