My wifi will not detect networks and will not search for other networks when I search for them. Do I need a new iPhone or can I fix it myself?

My wifi is on and when it tries to find a wifi connection, the gray little circle just keeps spinning and will not detect our home wifi. I have tried to search for it and connect to it manually, but it will not search for the network name. I'm hoping I don't need a new phone so please help.

The following may have something that will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

8500A Plus falls off of the network and must be rebooted, no other network user fall off?

Print job gets que'd and then fails. I have to press power button and then printer reports error and instructs to turn off the printer and turn back on. All of this takes several minutes. All other networked items work just fine so I know the network is not going down.

The links toolbar is not working. I can drag addresses to it, but when I click on them, the sites don't open. How can I fix this?

There is a toolbar feature in the lower right corner of the taskbar. I tried to set up the Links toolbar. I can drag addresses to this, but when I click them, nothing happens. What should happen is the site/page whose address I clicked should open.
How can I fix this? Is it a problem with the Firefox I'm currently using?

I checked out the links you provided. One is dead, one is for Windows 7, which doesn't apply to my problem because I'm using Windows 8, and I've been checking out the third.
I'm a novice and may not have the right vocabulary to explain myself. The Links toolbar is accessed from the bottom right side of the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. Apparently Firefox is necessary to use this, as everyone I've talked to swears it's not visible for IE.
What I'm referring to is Right-click "show hidden icons." Scroll up to Toolbars. Scroll over to Links. Check it to enable it. Then what should happen is I should be able to drag the address/url from the top of the page to this menu and click on it when I want to go back to that particular page. That is what is not working. Nothing happens when I click the addresses in the Links menu.

TS1424 I recently purchsed several songs off itunes and they only have sound for 17 seconds.I tried re loading them but says i already purchsed it.How can i fix this?

Why is the music i purchased only has sound for 17 seconds?I cant rebuy them cause it says i already purchased them.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entries, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
(Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

Smart connect not detecting connections and phone not detecting headphones

Hi
The smart connect app in my Z2 used to auto launch the profile i set when my Blue tooth ear phones connect and disconnect but not anymore. Force stopping the app does not work. It was working before the lasted android update.
Also my phone has stopped detecting my beats plug in headphones. Again it used to work prior to the software update last month.
Sony if you're reading this please issue a patch soon thanks!

Did you also try to clear data for smart connect?

I'm running Mavericks on a 24-inch 2007 mac, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, OS X 10.9.3 (13D65). The Airport Express is model A1264. I connect to it via an Airport Extreme with 7.6.4.
Thanks in advance.

my wifi button is on off and will not slide into the on postion

Ignore joseph's post.
Use this article: iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim - Support - Apple
Follow all of the troubleshooting steps. You can even try restoring the device as new: iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
If the wi-fi remains greyed out, your device needs service.
If within warranty, it should be free.
If not, it will probably cost $199 USD + tax.

My phone wont let me do anything. On the locked screen it says hello in a bunch of different languages and when i unlock it it say to choose a Wi-Fi network and will only let me go to emergency calls. How do i fix this?

How do i fix my phone?
Itis trying to make me hook up to a Wi-Fi network and wont take me anywhere other than that and emergency call. I tried to restore it but I can't because I have find my phone on.

I found this article some time ago when I was trying to help someone else in this same situation. This is a copy and paste from the website. The website is provided below for you to read before you try this.
Plug your phone into iTunes
Click setup as a new device
Immediately unplug your phone from the computer
Give it about 30 seconds and iTunes will give a message (I don’t remember the specific, but regarding you unplugging the device and it not completing)
Plug your phone back in
Viola! no restore occurred and you can access everything again
This computer has previously synced with an iPhone or another iOS device.

E-mail has not been delivered and will remain in my outbox until it can

Hi, my wife tried to send some wedding photos 19.0 mb worth via e-mail and the maximum allowed on the server is 10 mb. She did this roughly 3 months ago. Everytime we go to send an e-mail photo, we get "ERROR, This message could not be delivered and will remain in our Outbox until it can be delivered. Your messate has size 19 mb which exceeds 100 mb, the maximum allowed by the server." Can someone please tell me how to cancel this outgoing e-mail so it no longer pops up. Thank you in advance. t

Hi tomndeb,
You must be using an email software other than Mail.app - probably Entourage, since it says "Outbox"
Anyway, if the email is still in the Outbox on your machine, go there and delete it. The Outbox is located in the left-hand column of Entourage under Folders on My Computer (if you don't have it hidden) - in which case you will have to click on the small righthand pointing arrow at the bottom of your Mail, Address Book, Calendar, etc. icons.
You might also use a web-based email client such as Mail2Web to clean up incoming and outgoing mail on your server. It's free and easy.
Good Luck,
John

Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them. When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears. Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.

Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them. When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears. Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand. I also cannot attach any of these pics into an e-mail or into any other file. I have already went through all 3 Repair options and when that did not solve it went through a complete Rebuild. Any Help?! Any Suggestions on how to fix this?! I have spent almost 2 days now going through all of the published help.
I have backups going back 6 months - I have not had the real need to check every album before - but - all of my backups also have this same problem.

The triangle with the ! indicates that the connection between the thumbnail and the orginal is missing - this can be caused by many things including database corruption and user action emoving the originals photos on urpose or by accident
If the database is corrupted then rebuilding is the solution - backup and depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database -- if the iPhoto rebuild does not cure the problem then download iPhoto Library manager and use its rebuild command which creates a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched
If you have deleted the photos then you need to start over with a new library and import the photos you have not deleted into it
You can select one of the problem photos and use the reveal original in finder commander (file menu) to see if the original is there - if it is a finder window will open showing it

Only one epub file will not open in ADE or on my Nook. The others I downloaded will open on both and will copy to the Nook as usual.

I download epub books from Overdrive. Only one epub file will not open in ADE on my Mac or on my Nook. The many others I've downloaded will open on both and will copy to the Nook as usual. Using the latest edition of ADE. Could be a corrupted ePub file? Curiously, this is the second time I've downloaded this epub from the same site, and I had no problem the first time. It still has 9 days remaining in the borrowing period.

Forgot to make clear that on both my Mac and the Nook, attempting to open the epub causes ADE to crash.

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPod touch will not power up and is not recognized by my comptuer anymore

Good afternoon, my ipod touch (4th Gen) will not power up and is not recognized by my computer anymore. I have attempted to restore but that did not work. I have also charged for several hours. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I have already tried that as well and unfortunately it did not work.

Have you tried to restore the iPod via iTunes on the computer? See the restoring topic on:
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
If not successful, what happens when you try to restore the iPod? Any error messages?

When I attempt to reply or forward email, it says my server does not allow relaying and will not send.

When I attempt to forward or reply emails. I get the error message that my server does not allow relaying and will not send.

Some ISPs don't really handle you mail, they pass it off to another pipeline. That is called relaying. Some receiving servers will not accept relayed messages, as they are frequently associated with spammers.
In some cases, I understand aol relays within thier own system, confusing the issue a little.
Who is you mail provider? If it is a big name, this should not be an issue. As a test, if you have an alternate e mail account, like gmail, try to send a message from that account and see if it goes through.

My wifi will not detect networks and will not search for other networks when I search for them. Do I need a new iPhone or can I fix it myself?
