The New iPad will not connect to my wi-fi
I bought The New iPad yesterday. I have iPad One next to it. One will connect to my wi-fi network, the other won't. The New iPad won't.
The problem is the password to the wi-fi network. TNiP seems to want a longer password. My password is 4 characters long (I do not want to hear a word about security and my password) and after I type it the submit button does not highlight unless I key in more characters.
Is there anything I can do?
Cheers,
How do I change my router for the iPad?
And why has Apple set up the password to be longer than the other versions?

My ipod recenly froze with the last update. bestbuy gave me a replacement. the new one will not connect to the computer or itunes. i followed all the instructions and - nothing. It's frustrating enough as i lost all my notes and work, but now I can't connect to sync with itunes. i don't get it. i'm not a supertech so i don't know what to do. help!!!!!!
Thanks, Bob! You are correct. And, we learned this as we spoke with APPLE TECH SUPPORT by phone on Christmas day (800-APL-CARE). One of their reps spent the time to help us troubleshoot this, but the boiled down conclusion is your answer, and to repeat for the benefit of others, here is what worked:
1. With our Belkin router set to "out-of-the-box" WEP 64 bit security, we could not get wireless access of any kind. Only with the Security Mode set to DISABLED, could we gain access.
2. Changing the router's security mode setting to "WPA/WPA-2...." and entering a new min. 8 char passphrase, and then entering that same passphrase into the IPOD Touch, and restarting the router, did the trick!
Based on this, and some info found in another posting, I can only conclude that the IPODs and IPHONES do not support WEP security mode in many generic routers used by thousands of consumers. Hopefully, those same consumers can figure out how to change their wireless router setttings to WPA/WPA-2 security mode and ALSO get all their other wireless devices (PCs, laptops, WII boxes, ROKU boxes) all reconfigured to WPA mode, too.
I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE HERE IS THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT APPLE NEEDS TO ADDRESS WITH WEP COMPATIBILITY and it may also be the case that MOST CONSUMERS ARE USING WEP 64 BIT security on their home wireless routers?
In any case, it's working now, so anyone who is having problems should try changing to WPA mode and post back here if it worked for them! -
The New iPad will not sync all photo's
I picked up the new iPad yesterday at the Apple store and am having a problem getting it to sync all of my photo library.
Im using iTunes on Windows 7 to sync the "My Pictures" folder to the iPad.
It will sync some but not all of the folders in the "My Pictures". I have deleted the "iPod Photo Cache" folder, that did not help.
I have 2 iPhones and 2 older iPad 1's which sync the photo's just fine.Maybe, although I always thought there was a threshold for each device below which it wouldn't have to create an "optimized" (re-sized) version. You'd think this would be a high number for the New iPad, giving the screen resolution. For example, my re-sized (3072 on the long edge) pictures aren't being optimized before tranfer -- they're just copying over and they work just fine.
Who knows. I just got off the phone with a tier-2 AppleCare rep (I found this thread while we were on the phone), and he indicated he would pass this thread along to the engineers. It's a pretty obvious bug somewhere in the mix, and one I suspect they'll be all over right away, given the attractiveness of the new iPad to photography types. -

My iPad will NOT connect to the internet.
My iPad will NOT connect to the internet..
After learning I was signed out of my iMessage AND my Facetime, I tried to sign in through settings.. After several failed attempts, I reset my network settings. When the iPad turned back on, I tried to connect to my internet and it repeatedly told me my password was wrong. After many attempts at trying the password, and making sure I typed everything correctly, it would NOT connect. I have followed at least fifty websites' directions on how to fix this problem but it will NOT work.... Help?The correct password is printed on your router's label.
Some things to try first:
1. 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.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. 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
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

My ipad will not connect to the internet unless the security is disabled. this was the diagnosis of the belkin router support tech, who spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone with me. my service provider is new -- one link. (Apple does not provide tech support to puerto rico after the 90 day free service expires.)
Read this for suggestions: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Especially note the section on using WEP security keys. In fact, if you are using WEP for security, change to WPA2. WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi Alliance since 2004 as insecure. It can be cracked in seconds with widely available S/W. -

Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded? If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized. With iTunes open, click on Store at the top. Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them. Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

Can you download new apps? If you can, go to the App Store featured tab and do a search for one of the apps that tells you it needs an update. When the app appears in the search, tap on the app icon and the description window for the app will pop up. Try updating the app from there and see if that works.
Have you tried rebooting your router? Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again?
Look at this article and see the section about the DNS settings on the iPad.

I have the new ipad when I connect to my pc I do not find the videos and photos
I have the new ipad when I connect to my pc I do not find the videos and photos
What OS do you have on your PC ? I assume that the video was taken with the iPad - if it was originally synced to the Photos app from a computer then you will need to use a third-party app such as Simple Transfer to copy it off, you can't copy off synced photos/videos via the camera wizard.
If it was taken with the iPad and you have XP on your PC then large videos may not be recognised by the windows camera wizard . If the camera wizard isn't recognising the video then you could try copying it from the iPad manually :
Note: Windows XP cannot import video files larger than 500 MB using Camera and Scanner Wizard. You can transfer these files directly from your device by selecting them in My Computer and dragging or copying the movie files to your computer's hard drive.
If you find that not all your photos were imported from your device's Camera Roll after performing the above steps, you can either copy the photos to your computer using Windows Explorer, or you can use additional software such as Windows Live Photo Gallery or Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later to import all pictures.
To copy the photos to your computer using Windows Explorer:
Connect the iOS device to the computer.
Choose Start > My Computer.
Double-click the logo for the device to browse its camera folders.
Navigate to [iOS device]\Internal Storage\DCIM\100APPLE.
Manually copy the content in this folder to your computer, wherever you would like to store it.
Disconnect your device. Open the Camera Roll and manually delete all the pictures from the iPhone Camera Roll that you just imported. -
