Original iPad no longer connects to Mac?

My original iPad will no longer connect to my Mac. I replaced my old Mac Tower with an Intel Power Mac. I have tried everything that I can think of to remedy this problem.

Try going to Settings/General/Reset (Last option at bottom) Reset Network Settings. That should do the trick.

  • Ipad no longer connects to internet after using remote app for apple TV

    I can use the Remote app on my Ipad to connect to Itunes library through my apple TV but as soon as I do that, I can no longer connect to the internet on my Ipad.  The network stays connected on my Ipad but no internet.  I have to recycle the router (airport extreme) and power off the Apple TV.  Once I do that I can then connect to the internet again.  I am using a Mac Pro as my desktop with airport extreme as my router.  All software is up to date.  Appreciate any thoughts anyone might have.  Its a pain to use that litte remote for my Apple TV.

    My question: Is it normal for the internet connection to switch from an Apple Network to another network?
    No.
    You are probably connecting to a neighbor's wireless network. Unplug your base station and see if the network remains.

  • IPad no longer connects remotely to my iMac

    I got Splashetop Remote Desktop for the iPad the other day and it worked great for a few minutes but then it simply stopped working. It would no longer connect to my iMac remotely. But the worst part of it is now none of the remote apps on my iPad are working either. I'm talking about apps like Air Video, Remote HD, Rowmote, and Mobile Mouse. None of these apps will connect to my Mac anymore when they worked perfectly before. Same goes for the Apple Remote App with home sharing turned on. Interestingly, the same apps still all work perfectly on my iPod Touch (minus Splashtop Remote Desktop) which I don't have for the iPod Touch).
    Clearly Splashstop Remote did something to the connection between the iMac and the iPad because everything was working before I tried it for the first time.
    I've erased Splashetop Remote from the iPad and uninstalled its server application from the iMac. I even did a full reset of the iPad followed by a restore from a few days ago. Still nothing. Wifi on the iPad has been working fine the entire time as I can surf the web, check email, Twitter, etc... So it's just remote access apps tat won't work anymore even though essentially the same apps on my iPod Touch still do work. Firewall is off and I don't use antivirus software.
    It might help to add that all the remote apps on the iPad keep timing out. Also, occasionally Rowmote quickly flashes some sort of "GFL Socker Error" message. It flashes so fast it's impossible to read it so the first part may be wrong. I definitely saw the words Socket and Error though. It's really the only thing I have to go on.
    I've also repaired permissions on my iMac.
    I would really appreciate it if anybody could provide any help. I've already worked on this issue for a few days and so far the developers of Splashtop Remote hace been no help. I don't know if this is an IOS or OSX issue or both?

  • IPad no longer connecting to mail

    My iPad mail app is no longer connecting to my iCloud mail account. 
    It connects fine to gmail (through the mail app) so I know it's working!
    I've tried deleting iCloud, rebooting the iPad and reinstalling iCloud but no joy.
    Any ideas please?

    Just spent an hour on the phone with Apple Support.
    The first contact was useless - reading from a script, couldn't think past the script.  She wanted to reset the iPhone and iPad - which I refused to do - too many problems with subscritions afterwards.
    She bounced me to a Supervisor - while I was on hold, I created a new iCloud account and set it up on my iPhone - it worked without problems.  The Supervisor immediately recognized that meant the issue was on their end, not on my iPhone or iPad.  He put the account in "troubleshooting mode" - took it out of "troubleshooting mode" - put it back in "troubleshooting mode" - no sucess.  He then put me on hold to contact their Engineers.
    While on hold this time - I went to iCloud.com - logged into the troubled account - created a rule to bounce all incoming email from the troubled account to the account I just set up and now all my email is coming into the second account!
    Supervisor gets back on the line - I tell him what I did.  He said at least that's a work around for now.  They were going to investigate more - should get back to me in 4 - 24 hours.  Until then my work around is working.  I've tested it multiple times from different email accounts - it's bouncing email to where it should be.
    Turned off Calendar, Contacts, Reminders, etc on the second account - just left Mail on.  Also left the troubled account up and running on my iPhone so I can see when it / if it starts working again.  Turned off the troubled accounts Mail on the iPad though.
    As a note - I am a LEGACY Mac.com subscriber.  I have gone from Mac.com to MobileMe to iCloud now.  I noticed through all of this that suddenly my login info on my iOS devices has swithced from [email protected] to [email protected]  I pointed that out to the Supervisor - he thought that might have something to do with it.
    Are the rest of you that are having problems also old Mac.com users?

  • Ipad no longer connects to wifi at home

    My iPad (first generation) no longer connects to my wifi network at home.
    I don't have the possibility to "forget this network" in the options from the menu.
    The only thing I can do is re-typing the router password, which I know is correct, but still does not work...
    Please help me!
    Thanks you in advance!
    Gabriele

    If resetting the router does nothing, reset the iPad. Hold down Home and Sleep buttons together until the Apple logo is displayed, then let go. Again, no data or settings are lost.

  • Roku Photobridge no longer connects to Mac after OSX Tiger security upgrade

    I do the MacOS security upgrades as soon as they come out, and around mid-July, I noticed that my Roku Photobridge (aka HD1000) could no longer connect to my Mac. The error I get on the Roku is "User/Pass OK but read permission denied". Here's what I know:
    - another Mac user on the Roku forum reports the same problem, with roughly the same timing, and he also installed the same security updates
    - the Roku has its own account/user on the Mac, and all the permissions look fine (in fact, they're all 644 if you look at them using the command line)
    - the Roku uses Windows Sharing; I've confirmed that Windows Sharing is on for its account
    * the firewall on the Mac is set to allow Windows Sharing through
    Any ideas or help would be gratefully appreciated!

    Let me add: I've repaired permissions and repaired the disk on the Mac. No joy.

  • My Ipad no longer connects to the internet

    My Ipad no longer works with the internet. I can connect to my 4g wireless wifi but cannot connect to any web page. I have tried shutting down my wifi and have turned the wifi off and on serveral times on the Ipad but I can no longer go to any web page

    Hello GrizRich,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    I would recommend 2 articles for this, first iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap > and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
    Note: You will need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your desired network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and then on again2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    And then this section at the bottom if needed:
    Unable to access the Internet while connected to Wi-Fi
    If you are using a public or commercial network that requires a login or subscription, see this article for more information.
    Check to see if you have a self-assigned IP address:
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap >.
    If your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx, see this article.
    If you do not have a self-assigned IP address, see if other Wi-Fi devices on your network have Internet access.
    If they do not, consult with your network administrator or ISP for further assistance.
    If they do, reset network settings on your device by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.
    And if the device providing the 4G Wifi, then this article I would look at next if the issue persists:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot

  • HT4623 why is the original iPad no longer able to update

    I have the original ipad & it says it is no longer eligible to update.  It is has plenty of memory so that isn't the problem

    The minimum requirements (processor, ram, etc) don't meet the requirements for the current version of iOS.  Apple determined that the original iPad was not robust enough to run iOS 6 without degrading the user experience being degraded beyond their level of an acceptable costumer experience.
    More or less if you want the newer versions/features it is time to upgrade.  I can say that most likely every 2-3 years is the upgrade cycle for iPads.

  • Will the original iPad no longer receive updates when iOS 7 comes out?

    I have been told my original iPad will no longer receive software updates after iOS 7 comes out. Furthermore, I was told I would no longer be able to purchase apps and that the apps I have would no longer receive updates making my iPad totally useless. Is all of this correct?

    I imagine that it would be up to the software developers to make sure that their apps will still work with iOS 5.1.1 which is the highest upgrade for the original iPad. So as long as apps are available for iOS 5 you will still be able to purchase them.
    If your iPad functions today with the apps that you already have on it, it will still work when iOS 7 is released. A new software upgrade has no bearing on whether your iPad will still be functional. It just will not be able to download new apps that require iOS 6 or iOS 7.

  • TS1398 my ipad no longer connects to my wifi and says the password is incorrect when I know it is correct as it is working on my computer and other ipad

    I was able to connect to wifi at both school and home on my ipad 5.  However, now I am not able to connect to the wifi at home as the ipad states I am putting in the wrong password.
    However, I know the password is right since I used it for my computer and other ipad which are connected to the internet.
    Can anyone please help?  I have already tried resetting the settings several times and the wifi settings will not let me forget this network.

    If you reset all settings, that should "forget the network" for you. But when you say that you already tried resetting the settings, were you able to reset them? In other words, were all of the settings reset when you tried it?

  • Ipad no longer connecting to TV...help!

    With no update performed in the last week our ipad and iphone (both running IOs 7.0.1) no longer were connecting to the TV through a composite AV cable. I've read of many people having this issue with netflix 5.0 (which we have) but it's not only netflix that isn't going through even videos that we own are not coming through. Is it safe to assume this is just the cable? Or with all ther other issues I've seen in postings is this an issue with the updated software? Any help is great thanks!

  • IPad bongs when connected to Mac computer

    The iPad suddenly goes bong bong bong and won't connect to the Mac computer.

    Thanks for the fast response.  I tried also plugging in my iPhone but had no problems so I assume iTunes is okay. The iPhone uses a different cable. The iPad cable is the same one I have been using for years.  I have bought cheap cables or tried cables that were probably for older iPods and had the same "bong" problem a long time ago.  I will purchase a new cable (quality) and give it a try.  No problem when I plug into the charger.

  • After upgrade can no longer connect to Mac from Windows

    I have a wireless network (Linksys) with 2 iMacs, Ubuntu Linux and Windows XP workstations. I have file sharing between the Windows and Mac computers. After upgrading I can no longer see the shared folders on the upgraded iMac from the Windows box. I cannot even ping the iMac by node name, but I can ping it by IP address so it is recognizable on the network. I cannot connect by IP address, however.
    I have file and printer sharing enabled on the Leopard iMac. What can I do to restore the former connection?

    Thank you! That partially solved the problem. I can now see the Leopard Mac and can open my user folder on it. However, the subfolders give an error saying they are not accessible - permission denied. I have gone through the folders and set all of them to Shared, but this did not make them accessible.

  • Apple TV and iPhones/iPads no longer connecting

    Good morning,
      Probably going to pretty lengthly here but we have been having some major issues here.
      Since September we have been having issues with our iPhones, iPads, along with our apple tvs not connecting and syncing up.
      At the time we blamed it on AT&T selling out to Frontier in our area but now we are in February and still having issues.
      We have a wireless network in the house that we had for 5 years prior to Frontier taking over, when issues began to arise of air play not working, not being able to use home sharing as it could not locate our iMac, or loading times always timing out, we contacted Frontier many times they even sent a tech out but everything proved fine.
    At the time everything in our house was wireless and we would loose connection to the internet when surfing or doing homework on any device we were using.  I ended up hard wiring my desktop and Mac Mini and have not had any issues since.
      We figured since the router we were using was about 6 to 7 years old we would up grade to a new one and maybe that would get rid of the problem.  So I purchased the Linksys AC1900.  set it up the same way as the old one an off we went.   Everything worked fine for a day or two and then right back to nothing working.
      Again called frontier and techs came out and we checked everything and nothing was interfering or not functioning properly.  I have even ended up hard wiring a few of the apple tvs, but again same time out issues or no connectivity.
      Everything is running on the latest software.
      We are now at the point of thinking it is apple that is our issue, We do not have any windows computers or devices to test this theory on but a lot of news going around stating apple is having many issues with wifi and connectivity issues.
      I did not want to contact apple just yet as I have spent enough time on the phone with people trying to figure this issue out.
    If anyone is able to give me a hand it would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello JefferyPNichols,
    It sounds likeyou are unable to either use Home Sharing between your devices or Airplay. If the former, I would recommend you use this article to help you troubleshoot the issue:
    Troubleshooting Home Sharing
    If you are talking about Airplay instead, use this article for iOS devices:
    Resolve issues with AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring from iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
    And this one for iTunes on your Mac:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • IPhone no longer connects to mac

    My iPhone 3 used to connect with both macs in the house. Now suddenly when I plug it into the machine I have synched it to in the past (iMac Intel Core 2 Duo) not only does the phone not sync with iTunes...it doesn't even charge or launch iPhoto.
    I can take the same iPhone with the same cable, plug it into the other mac (Powerbook G4), and it will be "seen" and charge and launch iPhoto. I can take an iPod, plug it with the same cable into the iMac, and it will sync. So it's not the cable, and (given that the phone "sees" the other mac) I don't think it's the phone. Any ideas on what I need to do to get my phone to see and be seen by the iMac?

    1. Your iMac's USB port may be bad. Try another, or try resetting the USB ports as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1317
    2. If your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or iPod nano (5th generation) is not recognized in iTunes on a Mac, you might need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service. Find instructions here, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
