My ipod is connected to the wifi but only two of my apps say im connected
Hello, I have an ipod touch 4th gen. about two weeks ago it stopped registering my wifi. My texting app and my google app still work fine, but everything else says im unabble to connect. even the app store. I cant even update my ipod. My IP adress is 192.168.0.103 if that matters.. when i go to the wifi settings i can connect fine to my wifi, and have full bars. I have reset my router, and have reset my setwork settings on my ipod. twice. and still have this problem, i have even gone to a friends house and connected to their wifi and had the same problem. please help , and all the other computers and smart phones in the hosue work fine.
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 your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- 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.

My iPad shows that it's connected to the Wifi, but cuts off during certain apps.
My iPad shows that it's connected to my home network, and it works. Sometimes.
After a bit of time, it just randomly disconnects, and I can't use the internet anymore, even though it says it's still connected to the network. This can be temporarily solved by turning off wi-fi and turning it on again, but the problem starts again a few seconds later.
This only happens on my home network, and not other networks.
Anyone have any ideas?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 drooping 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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

My computer says that i'm connected to the wifi but I have an alert that says no internet connection
no internet connection
This means you're connected to the signal that your router is sending, however your router isn't connected to or sending out the wifi. You should read the user manual to indicate what the blinking lights indicate
or you can reset your router wtih it plugged into the modem and then setup the wireless connection in it.
you could also try turning on and turning off the modem and then turning off and then turning on the router before you reset it.
hope this helps -

My iPhone 5 is experiencing problems with the Wifi at home. It shows that it is connected to the wifi but anything that uses wifi (apps etc) doesn't load content and just looks like it's loading forever but nothing ever comes. However the wifi and wifi/internet dependant apps work sometimes but it's rare. How do I fix this?
Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist. -
I have a 192 ip at home but I can't get rid of the 169 ip from my iPhone. My Mac perfectly connects to the wifi but my iPhone doesn't seem to connect to it. Please help!
EUREKA, I found the solution to my problem in a Discussion initiated by gingertodd on July 27, 2011 entitled "Safari in Lion hijacked by malware." The solution was provided by Badunit who recommended force quitting Safari and then reopening it while holding down the Shift key. It worked instantly, and I subsequently was able to open Safari normally by just clicking on its icon in the Dock. THANK YOU BADUNIT!

TS3972 My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet.
My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet. Currently using a D-Link Router and Shaw Cable in BC Canada.
Apple says "Connections through proxy servers are not supported". Would that be Shaw? How can I update the ATV
software without connecting to a TV and the internet? Can I connect it to my MacBook Pro? ATV worked very well in Arizona
using CenturyLink as an ISP provider and their modem/router. ATV software is 5.0.What happens when you try to connect? I would contact your ISP

My new Ipad 3 connects to the internet but only for a brief period of time. I then have to reboot only to get hte same results. Any suggestions?
You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

I am connected to the wifi and show a strong signal strength but I cannot access the internet from the ipod. Can anybody help?
This reply is about problems with Playbook connecting WPA2 wifi networks.
I would suggest to check what kind of wifi network you are trying to connect to. If its an WPA2, this might help.
I was having the same issue until yesterday.
After spending a couple of nights dealing with BB Support techs, I came up with these steps and worked for me, even though that Playbook should connect automatically as other devices do. Moreover, of course I am not going to ask everyday the IT guys for a router reset.
So here it goes :
1- If you own a lap top/pc connected to your work Wifi network, open the network adapter window on the PC. Go to wifi adapter and left-click on properties in order to display detailed connection status.
2- From there you may obtain a valid subnet mask, Default Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS.
3- Since the IP Address was already obtained by your Playbook while trying to connect, it will be asking for the same IP each time, so write down the Playbook IP too. You can access it from the wifi? Icon on the wifi configuration screen on the playbook.
(The issue here was that for some reason, my Playbook on "auto IP mode" was choosing a different default
gateway number than the correct one. I still can't figure why, but I'm not going to invest more time on it, until a new software update becomes available and go from there.)
4- In your playbook tap the wifi icon and go to saved networks, tap on edit (pencil) and delete the troubled wifi connection.
5- Create manually a new wifi connection and unselect "auto IP mode". You will have the opportunity to copy all the information mentioned above. IP, Subnet Mask, Primary DNS. Secondary DNS and Default Gateway.
6- Tap save and connect.
Hopefully your Playbook will be online and ready to navigate. -
My phone shows that I'm connected to the wifi,but I am receiving no signal
For some reason my wifi has dropped from my phone. It shows thatt it is connected in the settings but it is still running on the 3G. I have reset my neworks and relogged in and it is still not working. has anyone else had this problem?
This means you're connected to the signal that your router is sending, however your router isn't connected to or sending out the wifi. You should read the user manual to indicate what the blinking lights indicate
or you can reset your router wtih it plugged into the modem and then setup the wireless connection in it.
you could also try turning on and turning off the modem and then turning off and then turning on the router before you reset it.
