My iPhone 3GS wifi tab on the settings is grey and won't let me click on it

I updated it before Christmas and it was working fine, I only noticed the other day when I was at my mates. I haven't messed about with the settings so I don't no what's wrong.

There are multiple steps you can take before it may be necassary to replace the iPhone. First of all try Airplane Mode for 30 seconds or do a Hard Reset. Reset your router and test again. If this still fails and the iOS is up to date check how old your router is...Also see how many devices are connected to this WiFi. NExt step is to test on another network. IF this all fails, you should try doing a backup of your data through iTunes. Then Restoring your iPhone and setting up as a new device instead of restoring from backup.
If the issue is still present when you have done this then i would recommend either an ARS ( Apple Retail Store) or calling AppleCare.

  • My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. What can I do?

    My iPod touch 4G 8GB, lets me download apps on iTunes, but when I go to my iPod, and then apps, the entire selection is grey and won't let me click my new apps to add to my iPod. Usually I just restore my ipod and re-download everything, but thats time consuming, and after I unplug my ipod from the cord connected to my computer, I can replug it right after and this will pop up again. I'm getting tired of doing this.
    Like I said, it will let me download the apps off iTune, just when I come to my apps page on my ipod, it won't let me add it to my iPod. I can't download it straight from my ipod either, but iTunes doesn't work on my ipod, and when I update my apps, when they're in waiting they never move. What can I do?

    I would say that you are not connected to the iTunes library you last synced with. You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you connect the iPod to another computer/another iTunes library then you get what you see.
    You can only manually manage music and videos among different libraries, not apps.

    Did anything happen to the computer?  It appears that you are trying to sync to another iTunes library since in that case you can only sync with one iTunes library.

  • How do i add more sounds and loops  the link is grey and won't let me select it

    how do i buy more loops and sounds on my garage band 11 the link is grey and wont let me select it

    the link is grey and wont let me select it
    What is your GarageBand version? In GarageBand 10.0 you can buy more sounds by an in-app purchase. If this link is greyed out, you either already bought it and should see "Restore Purchase" instead, or you are in a a country, where you cannot update GarageBand, because you bought it in a differnet country.
    To check, if you already have installed the in-app purchase, select a Drummer track and open the Library panel. If you have more than the one drummer "socal", you already have the in-app purchase installed.
    Another way to get more sounds and loops is to buy MainStage. This will give you the loops and sounds that come with the Jam Packs, plus many Logic sounds.

  • I changed the email on my Apple ID and iCloud account, but my iPhone still thinks it's the old iCloud email and won't let me change it. How do I switch the emails on the iPhone?

    It won't let me delete iCloud or sign out without SIGNING IN with my old email, which doesn't exist anymore.
    It shows no option to sign in with my new email/password and the popups are getting obnoxious.
    Now Apple is telling me I can't edit my own post?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If device is signed into iCloud/App Store with an old Apple ID
    •Go to appleid.apple.com
    •Manage Account
    •Sign in with current ID
    •Edit Primary Email Address
    •Change it to the "old" ID
    •Save Changes
    •Turn off "Find my device" under •Settings>iCloud
    •(Using current password)
    •Delete Account under Settings>iCloud
    •(Using current password)
    •Repeat this process for any affected device
    •Go to appleid.apple.com
    •Manage Account
    •Sign in with "old" ID (current password)
    •Edit Primary Email Address
    •Save Changes
    •Verify Primary Email Address
    •Sing into each device with "current" ID under •Settings>iCloud

  • 5s touch id quit working.  My fingerprint is not there to edit in settings and the "add fingerprint" option is Grey and won't let me click on it.

    I set up my fingerprint ID and it worked fine for 1.5 weeks.  Last night phone shut off for no reason.  I turned back on and fingerprint id does not work.  Cannot see my fingerprint in settings to even edit it, and I cannot add a fingerprint.  Have done a hard reset, no help there.  Please advise.  Thanks.

    I had the same issue ... and also restored the phone and the option TOUCH ID was totaly gone.
    But I restored it via the iphone itself ( general reset all data and settings etc )
    It was still not ok
    Then I tried to restore the iphone from ITUNES ( that reinstall completely the OS which is not done if you do a reset via the iphone)
    And then .. the option was back again

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).

  • I have some songs in Imatch that I want to download into my music. The cloud is ghosted and won't let me do this. I have yosemite 10.10.3 running on an IMac retina 5K.

    I have some songs in Imatch that I want to download into "my music" on a play list. The cloud is ghosted and won't let me do this. I have yosemite 10.10.3 running on an IMac retina 5K. Really getting tired of apple making simple things hard.

    Hello discomonkey, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It appears that some iTunes Match songs appear grayed out when you try to download them to your iTunes library. If you haven't already, be sure to authorize iTunes on your iMac before downloading content from iCloud or the iTunes Store. 
    These steps can help you download grayed out songs to your iTunes library:
    Resolve issues with iTunes Match - Apple Support
    Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Authorize your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To find out what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized with to play a specific song, follow the steps below:
    Open iTunes.
    Locate and select the song that you want to play in your iTunes library.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose File > Get Info.
    In the Summary tab, find the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down. 
    Click OK.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
    Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
    From the menu bar at the top of your computer screen, choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

    If the steps in the article TJBUSMC1973 linked didn't resolve your issue, then the next step would be to have your phone serviced at an Apple store. Good luck

    If a button isn't responding correctly in Safari, you may want to try forcing it to close and then relaunch it. You may find the following article helpful:

  • My music tab won't let me browse through my playlists. When I open the tab, it shows a random song and won't let me look through my songs. What is wrong?

    My music tab won't let me browse through my playlists and songs. Every time I open it on my iPod it only shows the same song 'playing' onthe screen. I can still play other songs by randomely pressing my pause button. What is wrong with it? And how can I fix this?

    Whenever you open your music, you will be routed directly to the last song you were playing. You can tap on playlists or other options to check on your song lists.

  • HT1977 My Computer crashed so I have had to download iTunes all over again. The problem is now I can't sync my Apps to my iTunes. It doesn't let me arrange them or anything when plugging my iPad in. The screen is greylike and won't let me select anything

    Hi Guys,
    My computer crashed and I lost everything. I got a new one and downloaded itunes all over again. When I plug my ipad in even after authorising my computer it will still not let me edit anything on the ipad. The screen is grey like on the ipad section and i cant select an app or anything. I have transfered purchase apps but all it does is take movies and tv shows accross. It wont transfer the apps into itunes. Please help

    As far as I know, iTunes will still not change anything until you click on Apply in the lower right corner. I fiddle with my settings all the time - just so I can get a sense if what to expect should I make any changes - and I have never seen anything happen to my configuration unless I click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes. Not only that - you have turned off auto sync so as far as I know you still have to click on sync or apply in order for the iPad to sync with iTunes.
    That doesn't mean it will not happen, I've never seen it happen - is all that I'm saying. I'm sorry but I'm not sure what will happen, but the only reason that I can of why the apps will not transfer is because of the manual manage setting. I could be wrong about that as well.
    Look at this discussion - which I have referred quite a few users to read. I know this process has worked for a number of people that have read it and used the instructions in it. Maybe we are missing something - what that would be - I'm not quite sure, but take a look.
