TS1398 wifi connects then disconnects any solutions?

I keep losing my internet connection on my iPad 1 and iPad 3.  It'll connect and disconnect at will.  This has got worse since I got iCloud.  I've tried resetting the wifi and restore.

Hi bobmyron,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the Mac will connect and disconnect from two different networks. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

    Give this a try:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
    2 -  select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
    3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox  "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
    4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    5 - in the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • Wifi connection alway disconnect after update to iOS6

    After update to iOS6 for a month, I found the wifi connection alway disconnect and need to reconnect severaly times. Plese help to suggest for setting up.

    Hello there cyldevil,
    I would recommend using this article if the Wifi is grayed out in settings.
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
    Here is also some additional info on troubleshooting wifi in general on your device from iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
    Be sure that you are in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again.If unable to do so, see this article.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and Cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and indicate that they are connected to the Internet.If not, refer to your network administrator or ISP for assistance.
    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.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2.For AirPort Base Stations, see this article for information about firmware updates.
    All the best,

  • Insignia headphones connecting then disconnecting.

    I am relatively new to Bluetooth and I wanted to use Bluetooth headphones with my Mac Mini. I bought the Insignia NS-BTHDP headphones/headset and it has successfully paired with the Mac Mini as indicated in the Bluetooth preference pael. When I first turn the headphones on the indication will change to "connected" but within a few seconds it changes back to "not connected" and the indicator lights on the headphone alternately flash blue and red indicating that it is in pairing mode. I tried disconnecting both the Bluetooth mouse and Bluetooth keyboard to see if it was a bandwidth problem but this did not help. In the Bluetooth preference panel I have selected to use the Insignia as headphones and not a headset. I am sitting less than 10 feet away when trying to get it to connect so it should not be a distance problem.
    Any suggestions?
    TIA

    having same problem w/ a Southwing headset/headphones. just started recently. set will pair, connect, then disconnect. also does same thing w/ older motorola earpiece headset. both devices worked fine until one week ago. i've tried everything still can't get "connected" to hold.

  • When i plug the USB for my iPad into my computer it will connect then disconnect over and over again untill i wiggle the usb around alot. This is happening to all my ports. But not on the other computer.

    Hi. Whenever i plug my iPad (Happens with ipod and iphone too) to my computer usb for itunes is will connect, then disconnect over and over again. It has happened for a long time but doesnt happen on my other computer. how do i fix this?

    If you have a spare cable, try using that.  But the fact that this doesn't happen on your other computer (I assume using the same old cable) leads me to conclude that something else is at work.  Maybe even the "bad" computer.

  • HT1338 After starting to download the Mountain Lion software, my wifi connection was disconnected. When I attached the ethernet cable, the downloading software was gone, and when I tried redoing the process, the app store would not accept the code. What d

    Hey,
    I just tried redeeming my software online. I went through the whole process, got the password, and proceeded to get the software to download. But soon after, the wifi connection was disconnected, and when I tried to connect the ethernet cable, the entire software had disappeared from my launchpad. When I tried to restart the download, it kept saying that the password had already been used before, and that it could only be used once per computer. What do I do now?

    You shouldn't have to re-enter the code, Lion should be on your purchases list so you can re-download it.  In the App Store, click Purchases...  do you see ML there?

  • IPhone 4s keep connecting then disconnecting with new MBA

    Hi,
    New MBA i5/4g/128 arrived this afternoon. During few hours of setting all my stuff, everything works just fine.
    But when I try to connect my iPhone 4s with a official cable, it keeps connecting then disconnecting(about 2 times per second) and won't stop.
    Is there anyone met the same issue? please help. Thanks!

    Thanks for the reply
    I've tried 2 cables at home. 1 is a offical cable and another one is a 3rd party cable, both of them didn't work, and both of them work perfectly with other PCs.
    After read your reply, I decide to try another 3rd party cable at office, it worked.
    No idea why, but maybe MBA choose cable more sensitively?
    Anyway thanks a lot and have a nice day!

  • When charging phone it connects then disconnects over and over

    for some reason tonight when i am charging my phone it keeps disconnecting. i haven't done anything to the phone today other than using it. itunes says to restore but the phone keeps connecting then disconnecting. what should i do? take it in to at&t? no apple store around me.

    AT&T doesn't do repairs. Either need to take to Apple store or call 1-800-MY-IPHONE and choose for the "ship it in" option where they will send you a pre-paid return box to ship it in and send it back to you after.
    However, issue could be your cable, or your computer just having issues as well. If you have access to another cable, I would try that, also with a reboot. I would also see if you can charge with the wall adaptor with your current cable, if you can, it may just be your computer is having an issue with it.

  • Did all the resets and still wifi connects and disconnects , plz help

    did all the resets and still wifi connects and disconnects , plz help

    I upgraded Apple TV late last week. Last weekend I rented a couple of movies from Apple TV. I watched one immediately, and was going to watch the other one the next day. On Sunday I opened up Apple TV to watch the film, and..... NOTHING THERE. I could see 'purchased movies', 'top movies', etc., at the top of the bar, but no mention of rentals. Even the film I'd watched (which obviously you can see for 48 hours) had disappeared into a black hole in Apple TV. I have been charged for these movie, and sent in a complaint.
    My airplay seemed to be fine, but.... last night, my computer was not seeing an Apple TV or showing an airplay sing, so I restarted and the Apple TV and airplay sign returned. If I chose to watch the film on the computer it started up immediately, if I chose airplay, I got the first image of the film and the loading sign going on and on (round and round) forever. The film never started. I restarted my Apple TV, the same. I restarted the computer, the same. I tried with various programmes and no go.
    iMore has the following suggestion. I am not sure if this will help. It sounds a PIA, but if I can't get airplay to work, I might try it: http://www.imore.com/how-restore-2nd-or-3rd-generation-apple-tv-back-factory-set tings-itunes

    Hi blaze469,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like the iPhone is getting disconnected. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections - Apple Support
    Wi-Fi disconnects or signal strength is less than expected
    Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Check for sources of potential interference.
    Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. 
    Cheers,

  • My ipod touch 4g wifi randomly disconnects, any solution? my firmware is 4.3.1.

    Hi,
    I have an ipod 4th gen. It has firmware 4.3.1. I have a very annoying problem that my wifi gets disconnected randomly with no particular reason. The signal strength is excellent in my laptop. Also, when I see safari not responding, and then when I open settingh->wifi, after a few moment the ssid automatically appears and it shows connected, but as soon as I am away from this page and go to safari, it again disconnects. It is quite annoying, I searched the web forums and only saw people with problems with no solution. Will apple do something about their product.

    Even through you think it connects, I doubt that it has.  Tap Settings > WiFi > and then tap the blue ">" next to the network name with the check mark.  What you will see next is all of your connection information.
    If you are truly connected, your device will have an IP address, a full subnet mask, a router IP address and a couple of DNS addresses.  However, I think you will either have nothing or a device IP address that starts with 169.x.  What you are seeing is caused by your router, not your touch.
    Things that may cause this are old routers, old router firmware, WEP encryption, a router that hasn't been rebooted in a while, and so on.  You might want to check your router first  - is there a firmware upgrade available, have I actually ever shut the thing off, am I using WEP (change to WPA2 which is far more secure), etc.  Then try this:
    Reboot your router by unplugging it from the power source
    Reset the touch network settings - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    When the touch restarts, tap Settings > WiFi > Other and re-enter your network name, security, and network password.
