My iphone 5 has a problem with wifi. iOS 8.1.3

WIfi gets disconnected when I open and watch the video on youtube app. For sometime that's going fine but after 1 or 2 video this problem continuously occur without buffering anything in youtube just by touch on play button. other problem is it is asking me again and again password of my wifi router But when I switch off and restart wifi on iphone than it easily connects.

unknow error 3 means the computer has lost communication with the device during the restore. It can be anything from bad cable, USB port, phone hardware etc.
Since your phone had a signal issue before, it would be your baseband chip faulty and when the restore tries to connect with the baseband chip to check (it does this when you restore) it waits till the chip responds then times out when it doesnt get any response. The restore will try this several times then eventually restart the phone to get out of the loop. As the phone gets restarted (or shutting off) itunes think the phone turned off and throws error 3.
Go to apple if it's under warranty. If not try to find where they do chip replacement as this is not something that you can do yourself.

  • I have a 13.5 month old Ipad2, wifi only that has had problems with wifi com from the beginning. I am learning that this is not unusual for apple. Any suggestions?

    Try #5.
    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

    My Iphone has a problem with the microphone it doesn't seem to work! so there for i can't use Siri anymore.. this has been playing up for some time now. But as my wife & I had a baby 7 Months ago I have not found the time to pop in to the apple store until today (8/12/13) and they told me that they couldn't help as it's out of it's warranty by 57 days

  • With my i phone 4 , the Push notifications doesn't work for apps like (fb viber , whatsapp etc ) it only works for the official apps like message  even when im using the phone, has  this probleme with the iOs 6.0.1 and also with the iOs 6.1

    This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

  • How to fix problems with WIFI iOS 6. ,,, i.e. No auto connect.

    All i am having various issues.
    1- Wifi wont work properly with OS6.
    Examples: facebook wont update notifications while in wifi, but is does in 3G.
    Other example: uploading pictures runtime error.
    2- Wifi wont Autoconnect. It was auto connecting until I reseted the network settings.
    Not sure why now all the sudden does not auto connect.

    scott;
    Your problem may have to do with the age of your router. My old router does have the same problem.
    It could also be the router settings, or the firmware version. Make sure you update the firmware. In other cases downgrading the firmware also may work. Apple is been updating wifi protocols to new standards, causing old routers to be not as good. (Specially with the iOS 6).
    To fix the auto connect;
    1- delete all networks
    2- turn on "ask to join networks"
    3- turn off 3G to force Safari to ask to join a network.
    4- open Safari
    5- accept to connect to wifi and enter password
    6- you are done, and it will always auto connect
    If you go straight to networks and connect to wifi that way next time you turn off and back on the wifi it wont auto connect. You need to follow instructions above.

  • IPhone has constant problems with Computer-To-Computer network

    I use a Computer-To-Computer network to connect my iPhone with my MacBook Pro when I'm at the office. This enables syncing of Things and OmniFocus between my iPhone versions of these programs and the versions on my MacBook Pro. I have one of the original (2G) iPhones. I daily go to my Airport icon on my Mac's menu bar, click on Create Network, and set up a password. I'm using 40-bit WEP.
    This sort of syncing procedure worked fairly well until iPhone OS 3.0. Ever since then, it's been completely unreliable. I've tried changing the channel a number of times, and of course rebooting both the iPhone and the computer dozens of times. It's still a problem.
    Anyone heard of this networking problem with 3.0? Any info appreciated! Thanks.

    yes, i have been having problems with computer to computer networking to iphone as well. for now, the only thing that keeps a steady connection is removing the sim card, so keep a paper clip handy.

  • Why does my iphone 6 have problems with wifi no matter what network I am on?

    It doesnt matter what network I am connected to.  I will have connection issues or dropped signal strength.  My phones wifi strength will go from 433 Mb/s ac to 72 Mb/s n.  Yet on my ipad Air 2, iphone 5s, apple TV and mac mini there are no problems.  I have had this phone for less then 4 days and I had to return 2 other phones with the same problem.  I have reset it many times as told in some of the apple communities with the same problem.  Is it the phones iOS or what?  How do I fix this?

    Try going to Settings> General > reset> Reset Network Settings
    then reconnect to your wifi then  see if the issue persists, if it does, make sure you are testing this on other wifi networks, if the issue persists, call into applecare and set up repair.

  • Face time fades out and then tries to reconnect on new ipad retina display on WiFi.  Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from exact same location and same contact.  WiFi signal strong on both devices.  What gives?

    Face time fades out and then retries to connect (new Ipad Retina Display) on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from same location and same contact.  What gives?

    rdallas001 wrote:
    Is the router to small?
    Not necessarily, if you are using Facetime all the data goes through your WiFi router, your cable/DSL modem, your ISP and the internet to Apple's Facetime servers and then, in reverse, down to the Facetime recipient. If your ISP connection is too slow or there is excessive traffic on the internet you can have Facetime problems.
    Most WiFi routers can handle this unless others in the house are also using WiFi at the same time. The problem may be your ISP connection or congestion on the internet, etc.

  • My iPhone has stopped working over wifi. It was working till late night yesterday and in monring it stopped. I thought that it may be problem in my internet. But noticed that it doesn't work with office wifi as well. Have done some of the reset option.

    Follow the steps here. If nothing works, make an appointment at an Apple store or with whoever handles iPhone warranty where you live:

  • Why my iPhone 5s's wifi have problem with wifi on iOS 8.0.2?

    MMy iPhone 5s and also my iPhone 6 plus and iPad 3, all have the latest update(8.0.2) but all of me have problem with wifi and gilt hung all the time! Wifi most of the time is not working and we have to use laptop or using phone data, obviously I don't want to use my data in home so , I want this problem solve as soon as possible. My iPad is glitching all the time, my iPhone's most the time.
    aand please don't tell me it's my wifi modem because I know it's not, I have been tested my modem with all other devices!

    Ok.  Have you tried restarting your phone?  Hold sleep wake button until slide to power off appears - slide to power off.  Turn it back on and retest.
    -Next is Settings, general, reset, reset network settings - retest.
    -Next is back up phone to iTunes, and restore to factory settings - set up as new, retest.
    If you have had your phone for less than 90 days, you get 90 days of complementary voice support at applecare, so you should definitely use that while you have it.
    AppleCare phone number: (800)-694-7466

  • Hello community I have a big problem with my iphone 4s as precent problem with wifi and ios7. my phone was a champ when actualize this, eh degrade searched everything but I can not because I get the error 3194. I want a solution please

    Hello community I have a big problem with my iphone 4s as precent problem with wifi and ios7. my phone was a champ when actualize this, eh degrade searched everything but I can not because I get the error 3194. I want a solution please

    This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4451 relates to the 3194 error. Generally this error has to do with trying to install an iOS that is not the most current. Maybe you tried to jailbreak the phone, or downgrade iOS? Any of this apply to you?

  • I got my iphone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life is very short. It drains out very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? Because I'm a bit concerned

    I recieved my iPhone 5 3 weeks ago and the battery life completely *****! After doing a few things and maybe using it for about 30 minutes the phone start overheating like crazy then the battery starts dropping very fast. Does anyone know if it's a problem with the iOS or with my phone? And is anyone else expierenceing these problems?

    It sounds like you have an app that is incorrectly continuously using data and power... from normal use the phone should NOT be getting that warm... only constant video playing via data like Netflix for example would result in that...
    I'd say that you should remove all apps in the recent app tray... tunr phone off... then once you power back on...
    Hold BOTH home and sleep wake buttons together until you see a white apple symbol... then release both buttons...
    This will ensure you have no apps running...
    I've experienced a hang up with mail while out and about that has resulted in this on my iPhone as well... Once I performed these steps it was fixed... it seemed like it got stuck and that's what caused the warm phone and battery drain...
    I notived that when it gets stuck (mail app that is) I will see the text connecting at the bottom and it never changes to "updated" like it should... this is my trigger that it's gotten stuck.
    Have not really figured out what causes mail app to get stuck yet...

  • HT1222 Hello,after the last apdate iOS 7.1.1 my iphone has stop work with the bose dock station. why it is happens?

    Hello,after the last apdate iOS 7.1.1 my iphone has stop work with the bose dock station. why it is happens?

    Natan turbo hadar,
    I have the same exact problem.
    I put an iPod shuffle on the Bose system, it plays just fine.
    My iPhone 4s works just fine connected to my car stereo.
    My iPhone 4s on the Bose will charge, it "thinks" it's playing, song shows, time line shows it's playing, can pause if I touch the phone's screen.
    The remote for the Bose WILL NOT pause it, forward to next song, etc. It does work with the iPod shuffle.
    So it's not the Bose, it's not connections, it's the iOS 7.1.1
    Everything worked fine before, any one else have suggestions?
