IPhone doesn't pick up wifi automatically

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Often my iPhone doesn't pick up wifi when I come into a wi-fi zone and stays on GPRS until I go into setting, wifi and then it picks up the network. Sometimes it does it automatically but it's annoying when it doesn't. It sometimes does the same with network signal if you go into a 'No Service' area and then come out of it it often takes a long time to pick up the network signal again. What could be wrong?

These are wi-fi networks your iPhone has connected with previously?
If not, your iPhone won't automatically connect to an available wi-fi network unless your iPhone has successfully connected to the network previously.
You can try resetting network settings at Settings > General > Reset.
This will erase all saved wi-fi networks and settings your iPhone has connected with previously and require manually re-joining every wi-fi network your iPhone has access to when returning within range of such a wi-fi network. This will also reset your cellular network connection.

My Iphone 5c will pick up wifi in foreign countries but not email! Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

I can't access my email while in foreign countries although my Iphone 5c will access
wifi for all other applicatons.How do I fix this?Apple doesn't seem to have the answer>

My daughter's 4S did this after Apple replaced the back.
There's a clear piece of plastic in there was not seated correctly and the flash was popping back into the lens.
Apple store just took the back of and reset the piece where it's supposed to go. Took about 2 minutes.
Take it to an Apple store.

IPhone 6 doesnt connect to Wifi

When I go out my phone goes to LTE.. and then once I get home it still says LTE and doesn't connect to my Wifi.. So I go to settings and try to search for wifi spots, the things spinning in circles like its trying to find wifi spots but nothing shows... Is it just me? or is it happening to anyone else??

Never mind it took awhile to connect, i'm not sure why.. it finally connected

Iphone cant be picked up in itunes under devices

my iphone cannot be picked up under devices on any computer . i have an almost new imac and it wont work on there i want to pop my photos on the computer HELP

If your iPhone is not recognised on your Mac follow the article below to try and resolve the issue:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
In terms of importing photos to your Mac the artile below will whos you how:

WiFi device not found.

After I upgrade my IPhone 4s to ios8.1, the wifi can't be opened.
And I search 'wifi' in log found something below:
Nov 2 16:44:57 iPhone SpringBoard[43] <Error>: WiFi: "no-sdio-devices" property not found.
Nov 2 16:44:57 iPhone SpringBoard[43] <Warning>: ERROR: WiFi device not found.
Nov 2 16:44:57 iPhone SpringBoard[43] <Warning>: WiFi picker plugin initialized, logging enabled 0

I had the same issue. Went to Genius bar and they wanted to charge me £170 to replace the phone. They wouldn't admit it is a common issue - even though this has clearly happened to huge numbers of people after updating to IOS8. Apple must have know this would happen and clearly see it as a route to more profit when everybody has to upgrade their phone.
I'm disgusted by Apple. This is not how you treat customers who buy your ridiculously expensive products!

IPhone 4 no longer picks up WiFi signal

Has anyone else experienced this?
My iPhone 4 which is less than 2 years old, no longer picks up WiFi unless it is right beside the router. This means I am having to rely on 3G signal in my own home! No other electronic devices in my home are struggling with this issue. This is still an issue when I am in other places with WiFi, the phone ocassionally recognizes that there is WiFi available but by the time it starts to connect all the WiFi signal has been lost again.
I have tried:
- turning my phone off and on.
- updating my phone
- turning on and off my router
- searching for a solution to this online, but it seems I am alone in this issue.
Help! Please! What should I do?

I restored my iPhone and nothing has changed except I have lost several hours of my life trying to make sure everything is backed up and then trying to reset all my apps.
I restarted the iPhone as a new device, still no wifi connection or ability to recognize any wifi networks.

Apple shop changed my iphone 3gs today, got home and cannot join my wifi. both my mac and ipad is working on wifi. tried rebooting, resetting still doesnt hold the wifi, it's there for a sec then its not connected.help please?

Hi,
Apple shop exchanged my iphone 3gs today. got home but it doesnt pick up the wifi. first the correct supplier appears then it says not connected.
both my mac and ipad is working on wifi (so did the previous phone) i ve tried rebooting, tried reset supplier...nothing works. can someone help please?
thanks

Yes, they should be able to verify that WiFi is working properly. If I just got a new phone & it didn't work perfectly, right out of the box, before I started restoring or whatever, I'd be right back where I got the phone.

HT1689 my iPhone 5 won't pick up wifi in my home, only in places other than my home. does something have to be shut off, such as iCloud?

I can't get my iphone to pick up wifi in my own home. I get it anywhere else I go, such as stores, coffee shops, etc. My friend gets it on his iphone and my wife gets it on her LG Lucid while in my home. Does it have something to do with icloud? does something need to be turned on or off on my imac?

Power cycle the router.
Check for firmware updates for the router.
Restore the device as new to rule out an issue with user settings, it can always be restored from backup later if this does not resolve the issue.

Devices (iPad, iPhone) no longer can maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule

My iPad and iPhone can no longer maintain wifi connectivity with time capsule. Time capsule has connectivity to internet via Macbook, but not other devices. This started after upgrade of devices to s/w 6.0. Does anyone know if that could impact connectivity?

Yes, this is often reported with iOS 6.. there are definitely more wireless problems.
I recommend you reset the TC in the following ways.
1. Change all names to SMB type.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. that includes the TC itself, wireless and hard disk. I recommend a different name for 5ghz so you can force clients to that band without auto voodoo affecting it.
2. Use WPA2 Personal security only.. 8-12 character pure alphanumeric passkey.
3. Lock the wireless channels.. particularly for 2.4ghz.. pick one of the channels, out of 1, 6, 11 as these are the only ones that do not overlap.. test each in turn for the best and most stable. TC should pick the best itself but that is voodoo and I am preferring to run the system without black arts.

It's not supposed to. Why are you trying to connect your iPhone to your husband's iPhone?
