My wi-fi at home doesn't connect on iPAD

This has been happening ever since I did a workshop at the Apple Store and they had us connect our Wi-Fi to their store, it always automatically connected before. Apple says its ATT, ATT says its Apple.

Try rebooting your router - unplug it from the power source for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again. Restart your iPad as well.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If this doesn't work go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings and then restart again. You will have to find your home network in the Wifi setting and join it again.

The apple TV 1 doesn't connect with iPad why

I upgrade the apple TV 1 software and now the remote with iPad/iPhone doesn't work any more
why

3.0.2 software is probably the best and came out several years ago - the issue is the Remote software you now have or that you need to reconfigure it.
Check there isn't an old version of remote in your trash - if there is save a copy of it!

My mac doesn't connect to my home network by default

My computer doesn't connect to my Airport basestation by default. The WiFi at the top bar is not connected, if I click on the WiFi symbol I see my connection and 2 of my neighbors, but none are connected by default. I always have to manually select my basestation. When I open Safari for the 1st time I get a "not connected to the Internet" type error. When I click diagnose and walk through the steps of selecting my location and basestation it connects without an issue.
I've gone into the System Preferences and tried to create a new location, but no luck. When I look in System Preferences and click into 'Advanced' my network is the only one listed in the Preferred Networks window. Why does it not connect by default. If I restart the computer I have to manually select my network again.

Have you tried deleting the SSID in the Preferred Networks section and then reentering it?

Bugs in IOS7. My iPad3 doesn't connect to my shared library at home

I think this has to be a bug because with IOS7 my iPad doesn't connect to my shared library. It worked very well with IOS6.
I have also discovered that I have no keyboard when I look for a contact!. Is that also a bug?
Thank you for your help
Best Regards.

Try going to [Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings] Once that is done, connect to your wifi router.

My iPhone 3GS no longer connects to home network but connects to others

I recently moved my router into another room and when I did, I messed it up big time. I fixed it and now the internet does work, BUT my iphone will not connect wirelessly to it. The network shows up on the phone, asks for a passcode and I input the pass and it it's right. It doesn't say it's wrong but it doesn't connect. This is making me mad because I can't be using my carrier's network, 200 MB can go quick when you download music or websites all the time. I'm almost over now, and I can't use my phone while home for internet until our next billing cycle.
SUM UP: Phone won't connect to wireless router anymore.

Problem solved!! I finally managed to pair the SE HCB-100 car kit speakerphone with the 3GS. I surfed the SE web site and it mentioned resetting the speakerphone. Tried it on 'one color ID' but it didn't work so I did it on all 'color IDs' and left it on reset mode when it 'accidentally' was picked up by my 3GS while searching!!! Found 'headset' and then recognised it as HCB-100. One happy guy for the holidays!!!

IPad 2 can see wifi but doesn't connect ... What's going on???

iPad 2 can see wifi but doesn't connect ... What's going on???

A few more things that you can try.
Turn WiFi off - restart the iPad - turn WiFi on again and then try to connect again. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Try to join again.
Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Then select your WiFi network again and try to join again.
Go to Settings>WiFi>Tap on the arrow next to your network name and then tap on Forget this Network in the next window. Then back out of the setting and go back to WiFi and let the iPad find your home network and then tap on the network name and try joining it again.
Do the same thing as above except don't tap on Forget this Network - tap on Renew Lease at the bottom.

I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.

I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.

Try:
- 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.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- 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.

No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.

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.

im trying to connect my ipad to my connection at home and its taking the password but still wont connect and doesnt tell me why?? .i even tried to reset network settings

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, my guess is that it's a router issue. You'll need to get administrative access to the router and determine if it has a firewall. If one is present, turn it off and test the iPad. If that solves the problem, don't leave it that way. Turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test again. Repeat as required.
For what it's worth, a router firewall can stop iPad communication without affecting computer communication. I do not understand why the difference.
Edit...
I just saw the post from Diavonex. An off/on is certainly worth a shot. Leave it off for ten seconds.

64 bit encryption home wi fi connectivity problem

I have a Mac Book Pro and I'm running Lion OS
I'm trying to connect to the internet from my home wi fi but my software doesn't seem to support 64 bit open wep encryption. I can connect other laptops, tv, PS3 etc but not my Mac.
I get 'network settings have changed' and it doesn't connect. Why?
Help please.

MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control. That's a specialized address for many networkable components.
Mac is the name for both the operating system and the computers made by Apple Inc, and is shorthand for Macintosh, and not an acronym.
Apple back before 802.11n days probably had better 802.11b support on the 802.11g compatible machines, as there was better WEP back then. Since 2006, it has been much more commonplace to find 802.11g and 802.11n exclusively because encryption on 802.11b is so weak, and doesn't support WPA2.

Air video doesn't connect remotely

When I leave my home and my wireless my ipad doesn't recognize my computer to stream my videos. Does anyone know how to program the air video to do that?

Does your school allow Video chats ?
Do they have the ports iChat needs Open ?
Do they allow Off Site chats ?
Have you done the QUicktime Streaming setting in System Preferences > Quicktime ?
(Set it to 1.5Mbps and restart iChat)
IS there enough Bandwidth ?
The Connection speed maybe fast enough but your share of it (Bandwidth) may be a lot slower/lower than you think.

I have 3 Dell laptops at home and I am unable to connect my iPad 1 to any of them using the USB cable. If I connect the iPad to any Apple computer using the same USB cable, it works perfectly. I have installed the latest versions of iTunes and iOS, but still no luck. Apple Store Geniuses helped me determine that it wasn't my iPad causing the problem, but were less helpful when it came to dealing with non-Apple devices.
Options?

Does the OS see the iPad at all? In other words does it show up in either the My Computer or Device Manager?
I've had problems in the past where I had to modify the registry to get my son's iPod to sync with a particular HP laptop.
If it doesn't show up at all have your tried using an external hub (with or without power)?

My Mac Mini (Mid 2011) doesn't connect to Time Capsule in 5GHz Network. This WiFi Network don't appear in the WiFi list. What's Wrong?

Oh yes, & 5 GHz doesn't do walls very well at all.
GHz and Network Range
The higher the frequency of a wireless signal, the shorter its range. Thus, 2.4 GHz networks cover a substantially larger range than 5 GHz wireless networks. In particular, the higher frequency wireless signals of 5 GHz networks do not penetrate solid objects nearly as well as do 2.4 GHz signals, limiting their reach inside homes.
