My home wifi connects ok but consistantly disconnects requiring the user to go into settings, wifi, and reconnect. Very annoying. Any ideas on what causes this?
Thanks, but I have done that. All the settings on the mini are identical to the iPad 3 & still the mini won't work properly. I'm sure it was something I had to change on servers to get both the Macbook & iPad 3 working, just wish I could remember what!! Any more suggestions welcome! Thanks

I have a new MAC and when I start it up, the wifi connects ok, but when I wake it up, I have to manually connect it to my wifi, any suggestions?
Take it to Apple and purchase an out of warranty replacement for it.
Replacement is the only way to fix broken electronics.

My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes. when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution on the phone. How do i fix this?
Hold down the power button and home button at the same time until the phone powers on, shuts back off, powers on again and continue to hold it until it shows the itunes logo to plug in to itunes. This should allow you to restore without unlocking it.

is there anyway to allow Firefox to allow pop ups from this 1 page of Facebook / well this 1 game https://apps.facebook.com/vampiresdarkside/ and not the entire pan in the Ass Pop up happy site, I cant see any sense in allowing popups from all
apps.facebook.com
and when I try to add it as the exception should be your program edits it to be that crap above instead of the exception I entered specifically,
apps.facebook.com/vampiresdarkside/
I seriously don't know what caused this to start being a problem until today it worked fine, but I added an exception for popups from this one site in Chrome and Firefox decided it wouldn't allow it popups from this part of Facebook and no I am not allowing all the FB apps to have popups I never had to before
apps.facebook.com/vampiresdarkside/
have popups after adding the popup exception in chrome, and no I did nothing to Firefox but it is kinda asking me to switch to Opera or some other crap browser with it acting like this, I modified the exception in chrome and Firefox now wont allow the pop ups it always had up until chrome allowed them WTFStart Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

I'm having trouble with back to my MAC. I had everything working on my home wifi network but now I am at my daughter's house and trying to connect via a verizon hotspot wifi connection. I'm wondering if the Verizon hookup is a problem.
I finally figured it out. Needed to update her Airport firmware and allow guest access, and also changed Sharing preferences to Allow Access for All Users.

Since upgrading to ios6, all the family's apple devices (new ipad, 2 iphone4 & itouch) are having difficulty reconnecting to the home hub wifi network. I.e, every time the lock screen comes on, the wifi connection is lost when you reopen the device and we have to reconnect through settings. This appears to be an ios6 software issue.
Is there a solution to this wifi connection issue or do we wait for a software fix?
I'd hate to think Apple is going down the Microsoft path, of passing untested software onto the user. What ever happened to Regression Testing, to ensure the existing functionality remains intact?
I bought into the Apple dream, because it was intuitive, reliable & enjoyable to use, all the things that Microsoft windows isn't.
Other issues we are experiencing are, Games are stuttering and the kids really miss the old YouTube app.

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.

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.

YouTube is not now part of iOS 6.
However, you can go to the App Store and do a search using YouTube. You can download several YouTube apps: YouTube (for the iPhone, a IPad app is in work), several users like Jasmine and YouPlayer.

I have a WiFi home connection. It works on my laptop but has stopped working on my iPad, which I tried resetting but it didn't help. It recognises the SSID but then asks for IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router etc. Any ideas on what to do?.
1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings -
When my iphone connects to wifi, everything else in my house will not connect to the internet. They all show 3 to 4 bars on connection strength, but unable to access the internet. The second I turn off the wifi on my iphone, everything in my house runs fine. What is going on?
Had a similar problem a number of years ago with a laptop my daughter had. The probelm turned out to be the router. What kind of router do you have? Have you checked for firmware updates, or at least tried re-booting it?

After the recent update of iOS 7.0.6 my phone is having issues with wifi connectivity. It gets disconnected most of the time. I went through support page and done with "Reset Network settings" too but it doesn't help. It is very toublesome while watching videos, sending pics, chatting and so on. Please advise.
It works fine in LTE network. The problem is with WIFI only.

I have a new Macbook Pro. Trying to migrate files etc from my Macbook Air using a Thunderbolt Cable between them.
I follow the directions but the two computers never "discover" each other - using a WiFi connection works but 70 hours is a rough deal.
(Mac OS 10.8.2 on both computers)Are you trying target disk mode?

Hi ... After I have installed IOS 6 on my Iphone 4, the WiFi connection is trying to authenticate in the Apple site but the page is not found.
Do you have any idea on how to bypass this authentication ??
Regards,
GilsonHi...
After I have wait for 30 minutes without do anything, the wifi interface worked.
I don't know if Apple could fix the issue on their site or the reboot of the Iphone solved the problem.
I'm installing IOS 6 on the Iphone 4 of my wife. Let's see if the behaviour is the same.
I will post the informations after finish the installation.

I downloaded iOS 7 onto my iPhone 4 and updated the iTunes on my PC, WiFi connection works but somewhow it won't do anything when I plug the iPhone. Now, I got frustrated that neither iTunes nor my iPhone do anything. I need my iPhone to get it back to work regardless if it's back to the last version of iOS.
I just encountered this problem for the first time and stumbled upon this forum to find a solution. I played around with it a bit and it seems that if you slide your finger from the bottom up, you will come upon that new screen that will allow you to do various functions with your phone (put it in airport mode, lock, etc.), you can select your Airport from this screen and play your music wirelessly from your phone; at least this was my experience. Hope this helps!
