New Ipad, cannot move past wifi page, incorrect password?
I am a first time Ipad user, bought a new Ipad for my wife. I cannot get past the connect to wi-fi page. When I click on the recognized wifi link and enter my pass word I get a message saying 'incorrect password' I have checked and rechecked my password for the router and it is correct. Do I have a bad Ipad or????
The password is usually printed on the router's label.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Face time fades out and then retries to connect (new Ipad Retina Display) on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from same location and same contact. What gives?
rdallas001 wrote:
Is the router to small?
Not necessarily, if you are using Facetime all the data goes through your WiFi router, your cable/DSL modem, your ISP and the internet to Apple's Facetime servers and then, in reverse, down to the Facetime recipient. If your ISP connection is too slow or there is excessive traffic on the internet you can have Facetime problems.
Most WiFi routers can handle this unless others in the house are also using WiFi at the same time. The problem may be your ISP connection or congestion on the internet, etc. -
Hi, I own a I phone 4, a ipad 1 and just purchased a ipad 3, I have 15g worth of icould data but my photostream doesn't stream all of my photos to my new ipad when connected to wifi???? It appears to be streaming photos from the last 10 or so days but no more? I have enough storage on my new ipad??
Photo Stream does not count towards your iCloud storage plan.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 Photos in the Photo Stream album. Only photos taken within the last thirty days and since Photo Stream was activated will be synced. -
The iBooks page on my iPad2 has locked. I cannot move on the page. I can close the page, and everything else is working fine. THis happened in the middle of a download. Does any one have any ideas for unlocking, resetting, or somehow getting the iBooks page to work? Thank you.
Just re-set the App -
Open the App
Hold down the power button until the slider appears
Hold down the home button (Don't use the slider) Until the App Closes
You might lose your place, but shouldnt be too hard to find it again... -
when i try to connect my new ipad to my home wifi i get a message saying unable to join the network BTHub and my only option is to dismiss
If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. Contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

New iPad cannot get email to work java errors?
"Javascript" is not "java", two completely separate and different programming languages. So you are not getting "java errors". If you are using a browser to get your email then likely there is broken javascript code at the server.

My new IPad mini has poor wifi reception. It goes in and out. My IPod, Iphone4, Ipad1 and Ipad2 work fine. What can I do? Does anyone else have this problem?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

New iPad cannot get Wifi internet
I am trying to help a friend with her new iPad. She is logged into my wireless network, the same router that I am accessing this forum with, and her iPad cannot see the internet. Error messages state "You are not connected to the internet." My Mac Pro is all over the internet via the same router. What gives? The iPad sees the net just fine via LTE.
Hello Gary,
It sounds like you're not able to access the Internet on your friend's iPad using Wi-Fi. I found a couple of resources that will help troubleshoot Wi-Fi issues on the iPhone:

Cannot move my wifes Apple ID from MobileMe to iCloud
Hi
Can anyone please help me?
I have moved my AppleID to iCloud successfully, but my wifes email address and AppleID was a secondary address on my family MobileMe account. When I try and sign in to the iCloud as her, a pop up box says "To sign in, move this MobileMe account to iCloud"
When I click "Get Started", it take me to the MobileMe sign on screen. When I try to sign on with her ID, it says in another pop up box "Yoyr MobileMe subscription has ended and can't be renewed. This Apple ID can still be used for other services."
What have I done wrong? All I want to do is register my wifes Apple ID on iCloud so she can use it with her iPhone and iPad, continue to get email and keep our calendars synced together.
Many thanks for help and advice on this one. I'm tearing my hair out!!!I am concerned about the same thing.
"Secondary" email acct (paid) is the wife's.
I can apparently move MMe to iCloud from either device, but I don't know if I should try again from the new iPad, or from the SnowLeopard machine to keep the additional emails flowing. -
I keep getting an error message while trying to setup my imap Gmail and Aol accounts on my new ipad air. The error says user name or password is incorrect but I know for a fact they are correctly entered. How do I correct this?
Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

Cannot move past License Agreement
After using the latest version of itunes 7 for weeks, I had the semi-common problem of not being able to select any options that came up in windows on top of the regular itunes screen. This included the preferences window, any pop-up warnings about volume (this later became an issue), but since I could still access my music and ipod, I didn't care too much. Then, I made the mistake of turning the volume on itunes all the way down before I closed it. So i got the stupid pop-up telling me that the volume was turned all the way down, which I then could not move past.
So then, I updated to itunes 8 with the hope of fixing the problem. Now, I've installed 8, got quicktime on my computer and everything, but when the licensing agreement comes up, I cannot click accept. The window is that light grey color like its sitting behind something and all I get are those annoying error sounds on Vista. I have already tried reinstalling quicktime and itunes (yes, i manually removed all of the program files and then restarted). NOTHING WORKS. So ive got thousands of songs...and an ipod that are useless.
PLEEEEEASSSE HELP ME!

After about a half hour or so my new iPad air looses the wifi connection
My laptop in the same location never looses the connection. Why does it happen with my iPad air ? I can get the connection back by either shutting off my ipad or going into settings then wifi and turning wifi off and then back on again. It connects right back up. The signal strength is full, I cannot find out why it does this, does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it ?
Thank you for any help.jThe prolem is from fabric, You are not the first one with that problem. Those are the bad things of buying new technology when its aout, most of time comes with problmes. I recommend you to go to an apple store and them to tell you whats going on. I had the same problem and I pay a little and they change it to me to a new ipad but from the same model.
Turn it on a try everything on the same store like that you dont need to go again and pay again.
Good Luck.
