My iPhone and iPad struggle with my home wifi, computers are always fine??
Hi all, so I just moved into a new townhouse in December. I am running a wifi network on 2.4ghz using an airport extreme and two airport express stations for airtunes. My computers never have any issue connecting to the wifi network, however, my phone and ipad have constant connectivity problems in terms of consistent network connectivity. The wifi signal will be fine, but the actual internet connectivity will be intermittent. I'm curious what the problem could be?
I know my home wifi is the only network running on the channel I am using in my area as I've used the mountain lion wifi utility to scan the available networks and what channels they are on.
is the setup between your different airport stations new ? or exactly the same as in your older home installation ? May you have to reset/rebuild your network. As an example: if you use WDS Services and change the airport positions physically my results connection problems. On other hand, may using DHCP or static adresses ? On DHCP try to renew adresses on your iOS device.
Hope it helps

Try resetting your wireless router and modem.
Disconnect the wireless router from the power source followed by disconnecting the modem from the power source. Wait 5 minutes followed by reconnecting the modem to the power source and allow the modem to completely reset before reconnecting the wireless router to the power source. -
Mail on my iPad and iPhone has stopped connecting using wifi. If I turn wifi off I can connect using cellular. I have tried deleting my AOL account and setting it up again as a new account but that hasn't helped.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

my iphone and ipad will suddenly not connect to wifi....
Never had any problems before?
Should are reset all my settings?
Should I reset all network settings?
Please help!With any wi-fi network or with your wi-fi network?
If your wi-fi network, try resetting the wireless router and modem. Disconnect the wireless router from the power source followed by disconnecting the modem from the power source. Wait a few minutes followed by re-connecting the modem to the power source and allow the modem to completely reset before re-connecting the wireless router to the power source and allow it to reset with the modem before trying again. -
MY IPhone and IPad will not share photos even though I have ICloud and Photo sharing on in both
Greetings Tima56,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with photo syncing and iCloud. The following article provides troubleshooting guidance which may help you find a solution:
Get help using My Photo Stream - Apple Support

I have both my iPhone and iPad backing up via iCloud but the data is not being shared between the devices. When I backup it appears to be working as there are no error messages but the data is not shared between each. Any help would be great as this is very frustrating.
Backing up to icloud is not the same as syncing data between devices. Go to
Settings>Store. Turn on the automatic downloads that you want on that screen.
Settings>iCloud. Turn on the features you want to sync between devices. -

No. Only the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have the necessary hardware (NFC chip). iPads, iPod touches, and older iPhones don't support it.

Since installing itunes 11, we can no longer sync to our Outlook 2007 and 2010 calendars (there may be other Outlook files included in this syncing problem). Using the iCloud is not an option as it does not support Vista OS. We are trying to reinstall iTunes 10.7, however; that is not going particularly well, either. Does anyone have a proven solution for this mess?
FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

Printing from iPhone and iPad directly with the USB cable
Is it possible to connect an iPad directly to a printer via USB to print? Do I need to install any software on my iPad? Will this also work with iPhone?
you still need a Pc or Mac connected via usb to the printer.
there are programs that allow you to see fron iOs the printer as Airprint compatible, i dont remember the name of these programs.
obiously the Mac/Pc and iPhone /iPad should be on the same wifi network -
IPhone and iPad discrepancy with iMessages
Recently I have been recieving some random iMessages on my iPad, but not my iPhone. This is really annoying as I do not check my iPad until much later and find I have missed messages. I can't work out why it is happening, but I need them on my phone too! I also couldn't reply to some of them from my ipad. I have all send/recieve iMessage options ticked on my phone (such as emails). Is it a problem with my phone or ipad? Or both? Please help!!

Why my iphone has poor connection with my home wifi when other smart phones ,don't?
I´ve tried everything!! I also had an experienced technitian to reset my router. Every single tip, was tried out, but I still having the same problem. I only get wifi conjnection when I am very close to the router. Also, If I leave the house, when I am back , the phone is not abble to find the wifi. One of my friends has a galaxy smartphone and it works just fine. I am very desapointed !
My wife's iPhone 5 is have the same kinda issue with her wifi. After update to iOS 7.0.2, all of a sudden, the wifi just *****! It drops out at home and is unable to locate any networ when in fact there are 6 in my neighborhood including the three of my own. Not only wouldn't it connect for very long while at my parents house, it was unable to locate the network. I've tried everything to no avail. After I do a restore, I'm going to give Apple a call tomorrow to see what they say....
