My ipod 5 wont connect to wifi, all the other devices in the house will does not make sense

Ipod 5 wont conect to wifi in my house when other devices do. does not make sense, went to apple store connected no problem there. Funny thing is it has worked since christmas now all the sudden i have problems, any ideas?

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT201150 the new behavior of Mavericks power button does not make sense

    It should go NOT to sleep when the power button is pressed...if people wants it to go to sleep just close the lid!
    Instead, when the button is pressed, the dialogue box should show up asking people what to do.

  • Ipod wont connect to wifi if more than 2-3 feet away from router

    I have a 32Gb 4th Generation Ipod Touch which until last week was working perfectly.
    About 3 days ago I started having problems connecting to my home wi-fi network.  If I sit within 2-3 feet of the router it finds it okay and will connect, but anywhere over that distance I get nothing.
    All the other devices in my house, including another 4th Generation Ipod all connect okay.
    I have tried rebooting the router and changing the wireless channel number, although I have always used the same channel number.  I have also done a Network Reset and Full Reset on the 32Gb Ipod, but nothing has changed.
    The Ipod is only 4 months old and was purchased from Argos. 
    Is there anything else I can do to try and resolve this or shall I just take it back for an exchange / repair?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Everything I own (iPad, iPhone, mac) is set up on wi-fi.  when i bring my work computer home (dell laptop), I cannot get it to keep the connection in a different room. All my other devices work.... does anybody know what i am doing wrong? please help!

    Windows drivers for Intel wireless cards are known problematic.. If you have plenty of signal and it still cannot keep or hold the connection the issue can simply be the type of wireless.
    Another problem is using names that windows does not easily handle.
    eg If you set the TC using apple names, like
    Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule wireless24ad12
    Then to windows this is too long.. it has spaces and it has illegal character.
    Change all names on the TC to suit windows. Short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    Also security must be suitable.. I have no idea how old or what OS your dell is, but if you still have issues.. pull off the security on the TC for a test.. if the computer suddenly works, it is not compatible with WPA2 AES. Make sure you also use a password that is mix upper and lower case plus numbers.. avoid special characters and make it 10-20 characters long say.. it is not required to be more than that unless you are paranoid.

  • IPod Nano: Error Message "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it"

    Hi everyone, I just received 2 brand new iPod Nanos for my kids for Christmas, thought I'd be smart and sync them both now before wrapping them so I don't have to be messing around with them on the day. One synced without a problem, then using the same cable, same computer, same USB port, the 2nd one came up with "The USB device has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it" I've tried restarting my computer, unplugging and reinserting the USB. Is there anthing else I can try before returning it? Thanking you for any help.

    I have solved my problem, I ended up ringing Apple and got an awesome lady who told me to reset it by pressing the sleep button and menu button together for about 10 seconds and once it actually turned on for the first time the computer then recognised it, so it's all good, :-) Thank you lovely lady!

  • Safari 6.0.1 won't load web pages randomly, and says website unavailable/no connection. But, all my other devices do have a great connection. Is there a fix for this problem?

    I recently bought OS X mountain Lion, and safari 6.0.1 was running great for a short period of time when it stopped loading the web pages. It will randomly do this now and then. I try resetting safari to no avial, and when I do a system reset it provides a temporary fix. It's very annoying problem. I know it is not a connection problem because all my other devices get internet connection. Safari will say no connection/web site is unavailable. The OS I have is OS X ML 10.8.2. Any suggestions?

    I do a system reset
    System reset ???
    Try a different DNS ...
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
    Click +
    Enter these addresses exactly as you see them here.
    208.67.222.222
    Click +
    208.67.220.220
    Then click OK.
    Try Safari.

  • How can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, do I have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense

    I hope there has been found a more efficiant solution for this,  how can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, I really hope I don't have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense
    any suggestions?

    Did you try browsing your backups in the Finder ?  That is, do not go and "Enter Time Machine".  Instead, navigate to your Time Machine backup via Finder and then manually go to the time period (by folder name) you are looking for ... when you find your Aperture library you can then "Show Package Contents" and find the Master you are looking for.

  • My solution for ipod wont connect to wifi

    my ipod touch wouldnt connect,took back to store received new one ,still wouldnt,went to apple store it connected to apple wifi,called router mfg up,i had to go into settins an change the channel it was using i was on channel 10 was advised to either us channel 6 or 11,i hav muliply devices using home wifi,they all worked except my ipod,i was told problem was probably some kind of interference ,everything working fine now,try this hope it works for you too

    do this http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398. if for some reason it does not work try another connection. if the other connection is fine nothing is wrong with ipod (it is the router) but if your ipod does not connect to any wifi then you have to try restore as new (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414) but dont forgot to backup (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766). if your ipod still cant connect to ANY wifi then you need a repair and contact apple or an repair shop.

  • HT1695 i recently upgraded to ios6 on my ipad and now i cant connect to my wifi. all my other devices work. i have tried resetting network settings. please can you help this is now getting riduculous. i am currently in tanzania and i have no access to any

    how can i relsolve my wifi issue with ios6 with my ipad. its been three days without internet. my ipad is having trouble detecting a wifi signal it finds my home network and then disaapears within seconds

    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 iPad is not connecting to wifi when any other device is. what do I do?

    My iPad shows that it is connected to the wifi at my house, but when I try to load anything, it doesn' t work.
    On Safari, it says "Safari cannot open the page because it could not establish a secure connection to the server." And Google Chrome gives me a similar message.
    What do I do? I tried resetting the ipad and turning the router off and on again.

    Try the following steps.
    Go to settings> general> reset>reset network settings.
    once the reset is complete, try joining the WiFi network again.. you may need to type in the WiFi key again
