Scrabble and wifi problem

Hi guys,
Me and my gf have just bought scrabble for our iphones and were hoping to play against eachother on multiplayer. We have wireless internet at home. When we click on multiplayer it starts "searching for opponents" but cannot find eachother. I have even tried opening a new adhoc network but we still cant pick eachother up on it! realy hope someone can help cos its driving me crazy!
Thanks

Same problems in our household. Once it connects, it very often drops in the middle of a game.
I read somewhere that bluetooth could be interfering with wifi on 3GS models. We started turning bluetooth off before playing scrabble and have excellent results both in finding the other player to start a game and maintaining it through the whole game.
They have an update (released on 9/25 or so) to 1.2.98 that broke wifi altogether on my partner's phone. Says that the phone is not connected to a wifi network when it clearly is.
We restored the prior version from Time Machine to get it to work again. EA's tech support is non-existent on any of the issues we've ever had.

Iphone 3G and wifi problems. I've been reading the string about this from last year. I have an iphone 3G with the latest ios 4.2.1 software. Every time I connect to my home wifi - Belkin N - it comes up after a few minutes with "Incorrect Password".

I re-enter the password correctly but it keeps happening. Any suggestions?

I have a belkin n surf as well and i have got this and other problems. my iphone 3g and 4 often keep on loosing connectivity. especially if the bluetooth is one (either connected or not). it often fails to find my wifi network after waking up from sleep.
the problem i think is most certainly with belkin n. its one of the worst routers out there. unfortunately i didn't read the reviews before buying it. i have other problems with it to like connecting it to a dc++ hub. the setting up for port forwarding is a pain and it tends to connect to the internet on its own even though there are no settings to disable automatic connection.
i was later told by many people online and also read it in the reviews that its one of the very bad router out there along with other belkin routers. belkin has even arranged a replacement for me as its under warranty but i'm avoidng travelling to the other end of the city cause i know all models have the same problem. the worst of them all is a mere 3mbps transfer speed form one computer to another over wifi file sharing even if they both are connected via 802.11n and are placed withing full signal coverage range, with no firewall or security on either on the machines or router. tried it over several macbooks and windows pcs.
i'm getting lynksys for good.

2.2.1 update means dropped calls and wifi problems?

I've noticed some other threads about dropped calls, and 3G issues, but is anyone else getting wifi problems? Seems to not want to detect anything, restart it, and it picks up, but inveitably fails a day or so later...

I have not experienced any wi-fi connection problems, and I regularly connect to a number of different wi-fi networks.
I suggest resetting network settings on your iPhone. Go to Settings > General > Reset and select Reset Network Settings.
This will erase all saved wi-fi networks on your iPhone, which will require re-connecting to all wi-fi networks that you have access to and if any are password protected, this will require re-entering the password for a password protected network.

Sync and Wifi problem (iphone 3G 3.0)

So I've been updated to 3.0 since launch day, and I've been having these problems.
First, when I plug my phone into my pc to sync, sometimes (more often than not) just disconnects and reconnects in a loop, and will do so until I unplug it. I've tried every port in my pc, and it still does it. I switched it to my laptop, and no problems. I've reinstalled itunes and the mobile device drivers, and can't think of what else I can do to fix it.
The other problem is that my phone won't stay on wifi when it is connected. It will continually switch on and off, and my browser and apps will tell me that I don't have a connection to the internet, even if I have 3g service while the wifi is disabled. Just started doing that with 3.0. I've reset my phone, powered on and off, and factory restored it twice. Not sure what else I can do, thanks!

Restored my phone again, still no change.

IMac - Slow load and wifi problems

I have lion installed on my macbook pro and on my iMac. My macbook pro works GREAT...no problems. My iMac - I am ready to toss out a window. Here are the problems:
INCREDIBLY slow boot up time - 5-10 minutes from off - 5-8 minutes from sleep
The hard drive is constantly working. I can have nothing open and it sounds like the hard drive is constantly spinning
Half the time my wifi hardware is not found on boot up and I have to reboot with slow load times - sometimes taking 20 minutes before I can get logged in to a 'working' computer
A lot of my programs have become slow. Safari can be slow responsive but others that are not apple that have done 'lion updates'
I have my activity monitor running and nothing seems to be hogging resources. My iMac specs are:
2.8 intel core i5
12 gb ram
2 TB hard drive with about 1tb free
I ran the lion update that came out and it did not seem to do much for me.
Anyone have a solution? Anyone tried a clean format and did this work? Lion works great on my laptop and I just need it to work on my main computer as well.
Reba

i think part of the boot up time issue is the amount of windows you happen to have open when you put it to sleep
other is lion upgrade slows it down due to this auto save function
my wifi is also spotty and acts like it can't find itself at times
and this is a brand new imac

New iMac freezing, showing Graphics problems and Wifi Problems on 1st Day

My sister just received her new iMac - 20 inch - 500 GB drive.
I started seeing problems during the download of the FIRST software update from apple. There was a black box in the lower left corner of the software update window where it should have been grey (or metal).
On reboot, I also occasionally show weird flickering graphics in the lower right of the login screen.
My new iMac also frooze about 4 different times during the installtion of various updates during the first 4 hours of use. Mouse and keyboard would not work. Once it frooze at the login screen after clicking on the user name.
I also had wifi issues. After three hours of use, my STRONG wifi connection was lost. Moreover, I could not see any other wifi stations. (normally I would see 5 other wifi access points from my sister's neighbours). After reboot, the other wifi access points would appear including my sisters but I could NOT connect to my sister's wifi access point. It said I had an error. I checked the keychain and it showed the right key/password for my sister's wifi AP. I had to run Mac Network Diagnostics and reset wifi to get things working again.
It sounds like a sick iMac. I know others have experienced freezing. But given all these problems, should I ask for a new imac?
Rob
P.S. My sister got AppleCare as well. Maybe that was a good thing...

I had a long chat with Apple Support. It would appear that Apple's policy is not replace the computer unless it can be determined that it is a hardware problem (even though my problems started to appear right out of the box before I even had a chance to download any updates). According to the Apple product specialist, sometimes there are bad installs of the OS at the factory.
Apple wanted me to format the drive and reinstall the OS.
Fortunately, I did not have to reinstall the OS! I started to see graphics problems when I was asked to run the Disk Utilility off the Install DVD (so I could format the drive). So clearly there was a hardware problem.
In retrospect, I really wish there was an Apple Store nearby to buy Apple computers. I am sure the store manager would not ask me to go home and reinstall the OS etc and try again when the computer doesn't work properly out of the box.
Those who have Apple Stores nearby do not know how lucky they are!

Email and WiFi problems with IPad1

Yesterday, I sent out an email on my pc laptop to a group and received 5 bounce backs. When I went to my IPad to check my email account, only one bounce back appeared and after about 5 seconds, it kicked me out of email.
Today, it kicks me out after 1 second. In addition, I am no longer connected to my WiFi and the IPad cannot find a network to connect to - it's stuck in 'Choose a Network' mode. Meanwhile, my pc laptop is connected to my network and there are no problems with my WiFi.
I'm not sure where to start...

Try closing the Mail app completely and the see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A second option is to try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

N900 and wifi problem

So yesterday all of a suddent after working fine for a month my n900 connects to my wifi connection at home but doesnt open webpages or anything. It connects normally but nothing opens. the vodafone gprs works perfectly.
I reflashed phone restored to factory settings formatted. Dont everything so any ideas as to what cuold be wrong?
Like all of a sudden this problem?

There was a problem with the wireless router in the end. I tested the phone with other WLANs and it worked properly. So now i got a new router and its all working fine but the thing is after setting up the new router why does it say wireless setup complaint?
If i go to connect it says press some button on the wireless station and **bleep**.
I went to settings internet connections and from there ran the wizard entered the pass code and now its working on my phone. But when the wireless networks are displayed it still shows wireless setup complaint.
Just curious to know whats that even though its working.
any1 ?

Anybody else having these problems, is it just a iOS7.4 problem that they have to update?and do you know how to fix it?

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

2.1 update and WiFi problems

Hi everyone,
I updated to version 2.1 with my iPhone (edge.) I noticed that my iphone no longer connects to my WIFI signal. I turn on the WIFI in the settings menu and when I try to test it by using the itunes store it tell me it can't connect because no WIFI. Does anyone have this problem, and what is the solution.

Yes, I have this problem with first gen iphone although It started with 2.01. I no longer had wifi. I had no access points in my list in the places I had with original firmware. Basically wifi is broken -- lost functionality.
Also, incoming calls do not ring when asleep. VM may come in hours later or until I reboot phone.
The clock is sometimes 10 -20 minutes slow -- have to reboot to reset clock.
I have done everything possible to fix these problems. I saw a "genius" today who did a "deep" rest and no luck there.
Basically he told me my Power management system was broken. I needed a new phone. I could get a another 1st gen for $200 or I could off it to some thrid party fix it company fo an unknown price or of course get new 3G phone with new ATT plan.
The "genius" position was that it is hardware failure and my warranty expired. However I remain deeply skeptical of that anwser given the numerous post here describing similar issues with 2.n firmware.
Needless to say I am quite unhappy.

'No service' and wifi problems...

I have an iPhone 5 and when I am in certain places I find it difficult to gain signal from my carrier anywhere, especially in my house or even my street. I'm with EE and whenever I do get signal it's either one bar (or dot in the case of this iPhone) or very rarely I get two.
I also have problems with connecting to my wifi. When I am downstairs (and in the same room as my broadband router) I can access the wifi fine but as soon as I go upstairs the connection disappears and says 'Not Connected'. When I search for any other connections it shows nothing. My iPhone is up to date and currently on iOS 8.1. I also have an iPod 4th Generation but I don't experience this at all with my iPod. In fact, when using my iPod upstairs I usually get 3 bars of wifi connectivity.
I've had my iPhone 5 for nearly a year now and I've have this problem once before for about two weeks. This has been going on for about two months now. I have no clue how to solve this or even where to start. I don't know how this problem came about and nor can I relate it to anything I've accidentally turned off or on. I've tried resetting my phone and resetting all my network settings but nothing seems to have solved the problem.
I hope someone will help me because my phone is becoming useless whenever I'm upstairs in my house.
Thank you.

Use this article: If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad
And then use this article: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections ...

Upgraded to 10.6.7 and wifi problem is back

Since upgrading to 10.6.7 my MacBook Pro is losing wifi connection every 10-20 minutes. The signal strength shows maximum bar and ifconfig shows assigned IP address. But I can't reach any machine including the router. I need to toggle on-off wifi and the network works again. It's very similar to the problem I had with 10.6.5 update. My wifi router is 2WIRE from AT&T U-verse.
It is VERY frustrating to have problem like this again and again. OS X used to be much more stable than it is now. You guys at Apple should stop watching AAPL ticker all day and get to the work.

Maybe all of could try some fixes.
1. First try to Reset Your Pram to see if that helps.
2. If step one doesn't work then try the fixes in the blog post How I fixed my dropping wireless Airport connection problem in Snow Leopard to see if any of those hints work.
3. Open System Preferences->Network pane and in your Airport settings turn off your Airport card! Then look at the top of the Network pane for the "Location" drop-down. Use that to create a new 'Custom Location', using any title of your choice. Then at the bottom right-hand of the Network pane click on the word 'Apply' to save your new Location. Then rejoin your wireless network.
If non of these fixes happen take the Mac in to be repaired. Good Luck.
