TS1398 I am connected to my wi-fi and have full signal but im not connecting online, help please
Connected to Talk Talk wi-fi with full signal but not connecting to internet, then my connection to wi-fi goes and I try to connect again which it does but still can't load to internet, help please
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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

How do i restore my wifi setting back to the factory settings? I have changed it somehow :/ and now my wifi will not connect. My Airport is on and showing full strength but will not connect.
Ok, if other devices are connecting but just not your MacBook then let's start troubleshooting the MacBook to possibly find out why.
Please try each of the following, in order, until hopefully resolved:
Note the following are excerpts from an OS X Daily article.
* Turn Airport on & off – You can do this via the Airport menu bar or from the Network Preferences. This is the first thing you should try when troubleshooting Mac wireless problems.
* Make sure Wireless/Airport card software & firmware is up to date – This is usually done just by going to the Software Update menu, if there are any updates available for your Mac or Airport, install them.
* Delete and recreate connection – Try deleting and recreating/reestablishing the wireless connection, sometimes a setting can be corrupted and this may fix it.
* Create a new Network Location – Similar to the above suggestion, try creating a new and different wireless network location to see if it resolves the connection problems.
* Change DHCP auto settings to manual – sometimes there is a problem with the DHCP server, and if you manually set an IP address on the network you can be fine. Remember to set the IP to a high number so it wouldn’t interfere with other DHCP machines. As long as you have the subnet mask, router, and DNS settings configured manually as well, this shouldn’t be a problem.
* Flush the DNS cache – Launch the Terminal and enter the following command onto one full line within the Terminal: dscacheutil -flushcache
* Zap the PRAM – Reboot your Mac and hold Command+Option+P+R during restart until you hear another chime, let the Mac boot as usual.
* Delete Wireless Config files – Delete com.apple.internetconfigpriv.plist and com.apple.internetconfig.plist files from ~/Library/Preferences and reboot
* Trash your home directories SystemConfiguration – Remove all files within ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ and then reboot your Mac.
* Reset your Mac’s System Management Controller (SMC) – For MacBook and MacBook Pro’s: Shutdown the MacBook/Pro, remove the battery, disconnect the power, hold the Power Key for 15 seconds. Replace the battery, reconnect power, and zap the PRAM and wait for 2 chimes before letting the keys go. Let boot as usual. -
I have a signal but can not connect to internet.
Ok, I have an Ibook clamshell and an airport Graphite. The Ibook picks up a signal but when I go to Safari or Internet Explorer I get a message saying the server can not be found. Help, please?
In the opening screen of AirPort Admin Utility, check the firmware version of your Graphite base station. It should show up as "Description: Base Station Vx" where x is the firmware version. If it is earlier than 3.84, download updated firmware from this page and install it.
I found the user guide for your modem on Arris's Web site. It prompts me to suggest the following additional things:
1. Although the user guide says to use a cross-over Ethernet cable for connection to a hub or home router (as opposed to the supplied cable, presumably a straight-through Ethernet cable, for direct connection to a computer), I believe that the Graphite acts like a computer in this regard instead of like a router. In other words, the Graphite connects to a modem, hub or router using a straight-through cable, but the Graphite would need a cross-over cable to connect to a computer. Try using a straight-through cable, if you haven't already.
2. Try pushing the Reset button on the back of the modem. Use a pointed, non-metallic object to press the button. I recommend doing this while the Graphite and both computers are powered off, then start up the Graphite first, before the computers.
3. This type of modem evidently does not itself serve as a router. It has connections for two computers (one via USB, one via Ethernet), but your ability to get two Internet connections through it depends on whether your Internet service provider is willing to supply two IP addresses. (If you try resetting the modem with the pc off, as in paragraph 2 above, and the Graphite acquires a working IP address, enabling the iBook to access the Internet, but the pc then can't, that would indicate that you can receive only one connection at a time.) I suspect that this is, in fact, your problem, unless your cable provider has said that you could connect two computers to the Internet with this modem.
It would be possible to share a single Internet connection, if the pc has either wireless or Ethernet capability. If it has wireless, you could simply disconnect the pc's USB connection to the modem and have it join the Graphite's wireless network. If it has Ethernet, you might be able to connect it to the modem's Ethernet port along with the Graphite, using an Ethernet hub, but this is difficult and uncertain, as well as less secure. If the pc can handle Ethernet, you'd be better off getting a newer and better wireless base station that has 2 or more Ethernet ports, or, alternatively, a router to be inserted between the modem and both the pc and the Graphite. In any case, a base station that can use WPA or WPA2 wireless encryption would be a great improvement, as the quite insecure WEP protocol is the best the Graphite can handle.

Airport reads full signal, but can not connect to internet
Hi everyone,
I have a new powerbook that I'm trying to connect to a home network which is set up with a cable modem and a wireless linksys router. The airport reads that it has full signal from the "linksys" wireless network, however I can not get on the internet through the signal. When I connect the computer directly through the the ethernet port, it works fine. I've taken the computer to another location with the same cable modem and wireless linksys router setup, and it worked fine through the wireless. I've actually had this problem quite a few times with various wireless networks (it connects directly, but not through the full signal that reads on the airport), and I was wondering if there are some setting that need to be changed or checked for certain wireless networks. Any help would be great. Thanks,
SofiI'm sorry I think this makes thing harder, but I have no idea. It's actually a friend's network so I can't check at the moment. I know there is no password to the network and that they have two pcs running fine wirelessly. Is there a way I can check these settings and see what's going on?

I have updated to iOS8. Now cannot connect to BT speaker that I have been using for months. BT discovers it but will not pair. I have tried switching both off & on but nothing helps.
I am sure the BT speaker not the problem because it works fine with iOS8 on my iPad!
... And no I am not trying to connect both at once. To be sure I have switched the iPad off completely and switched the speaker off & on but still with the same failure to pair. The iPhone sees the speaker but then gives me the pairing unsuccessful message when asked to connect. -
MacBook WIFI issue. States full signal but won't connect!
Hey all,
I'm at the end of my tether here! I brought my MacBook back in Feb and loved it, was so pleased with it. A couple of months later the screen broke, so it was taken back to Comet who sent it away and repaired it, turns out the screen was faulty and there was also a "defective logic board". Got it back after 3 weeks and all was fine, until now!
When i purchased the MacBook i needed to buy a new router so i got an N router which has always worked perfectly, over the last week or 2 i found the connection kept dropping out, this happened before and it was VirginMedias problem which they fixed. I checked with them and there's no fault, checked the router and there's no fault and no settings changed, i then decided to try a neighbours WIFI, again, the MacBook connected and stated full signal but when i opened Safari it says i wasn't connected. The problem got worse and worse and i'm now at the point where i cannot connect to any network through WIFI at all, the only way i can get internet is if i use my Vodafone WIFI Dongle...which isn't the cheapest or easiest way of connecting to the net! I also have an iPhone 4 and a iPod Touch and they both still connect to the WIFI without any problems.
If anyone can help i would appreciate it so much! If i take the MacBook back to Comet they'll only want to send it away again and i'm not happy to do that, 1) Because i'll be without it for at least 3 weeks and i need it for work and 2) Since i got it back from the last repair i've discovered it wasn't put back together very well and the screws have been falling out of the base ever since.Since you cannot connect, even at at another location, I'd agree that it seems to be a hardware problem, rather than ISP or software settings.
If purchased new or refurb direct from Apple, your MacBook came with a 1-year warranty, so you should be well within the initial warranty period.
If you're not happy with the service you're getting from Comet, escalate! Ask for the manager, and keep going up the chain until you get some satisfaction.
Finally, if Comet can't meet your needs, try another Apple authorized repair center or an Apple Store. -
I have full signal power, but says cannot connect to App Store?
I have full signal power, but says cannot connect to App Store. I had put all of my icons in different folders to organize but took App Store out as troubleshoot.
Any help?Are you trying to connect via wifi?
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

I can't send emails from iPhone until I connect to my wifi at home. I am with bigpond and have a bigpond email address. Can anyone help me?
Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app '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.
If that doesn't work then 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. -
My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect. I turned it off and restarted it 3 times now. I have an iPad 2 and the app store works flawlessly with it. What is going on?
Same here on my lpad2. Can access the web just fine from browsers but cannot install new apps or updates in appl store. Seeing a few others reporting same issue tonight so likely an apple server issue and staff will notice it in network monitors and fix it...sometime this weekend.

My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
Can anyone please help?Hi gscoops,

iPad 3 and iPhone 5 will not stay connected to wifi although I am close to router and have strong signal. I have to keep joining the network or restarting devices or forgetting network and rejoining it. As a side note my 1st gen iPhone which I upgraded to iPhone 5 yesterday always stayed connected!
The steps to try would be to:
1. Restore the iPhone to Factory.
2. If that does not solve the problem replace the iPhone.
If Verizon is offering to replace the iPhone for free under warranty I would go with that option. -

This an IPOD I bought used. Everything else works fine. It syncs to my computer and plays my music but will not connect to the USB interface in my car. My wife's IPOD, which seems to be identical, works fine. I should say it connects but then immediately disconnects. Any ideas?
Then my last suggestion is to Reset it, while connected to the BMW Audio.
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs or till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
