Unable to connect to server on ipad mini to edit account info
When I try to view terms and conditions to edit account info on ipad mini, the message unable to connect to server message pops up. I am able to access internet however.
Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues. The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in Settings/Wi-Fi on your iPad will override the router settings.
Try either of these;
OpenDNS

Unable to connect iPhone 6 and iPad mini via bluetooth for handoff iOS 8.1
Hi,
I have been trying to use handoff(Continuity) between my iPad mini and iPhone 6 both using iOS 8.1.
I managed to be able to do it with iOS 8 with a 5c instead of a 6 but now my iPad can not be detected on my phone and vice versa and if they do appear they will not connect and then disappear off the list.
Its a shame one of the main features I was looking forward to I am unable to use (I can't even use it on my mac because it is outdated!)
Is there anyway to get around this?
Also I know this is off topic but I travel on trains a lot and my iPad mini is not cellular if I can get handoff working again is it possible to still use the sms forwarding feature?
Thanks,
BruceYour post reads like you think that you are reporting a bug to Apple but be advised that this is a user-to-user technical help forum. You aren't talking to Apple here just other users like yourself. This isn't a bug reporting forum.
To report a problem to Apple use: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
Be advised, however, that I and many others are using iOS 6.1 with WPA2-secured WiFi networks with no problems at all. (iPad 3, iPad 4, iPhone 5)
Did anyone suggest checking if the firmware in your Comcast router is up-to-date or suggest something as simple as restarting the router by removing power to it for 30 seconds? -

When I try to log into the game center, i get an error message that says: unable to connect to server due to an error communicating with the server.
I have logged off iTune and any other app I was logged in, I have done a hard reset of my iPad, I have reset my modem, but nothing had any impact and I am now frozen out of my game center.
Anybody has an idea of how to resolve this?
Thanks,
J1) May be there is a mismatch with the jar file name and the filename in the jad properties ( happens only if you rename the jar file)
2) Check hollywood jad properties and the ringtone jad properties. May be the complete url is required for the jar file.
3) If you are using any restricted APIs in your midlet, then make sure your jad properties has the required permissions. -
upgraded to iOS7 but cant accept the terms and conditions as it is 'unable to connect to server' on both my iPhone and iPad, whilst my collegues all could accept them...RESET did NOT work. Any alternative thoughts?
I got it to work by enabling cookies in safari settings and turning off private browsing. Cookies are probably the key thing here. Accept button will appear at bottom right of first screen of agreement.

TS3274 Unable to connect to wi fi with mini IPad wi fi is working with other IPads?
Unable to connect to wi fi with mini iPad? All other iPads are able to connect. Not sure what to do?
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

TS3899 When I select mail icon at bottom of ipad I get an unable to connect to server message
Whent I select mail icon at botom of ipad I get an unable to connect to server message.
Also I can't email videos taken with ipadSo I finally found the fix (for me anyway). I logged out of iCloud, restarted and then logged back in. As soon as I logged in the terms and conditions popped up and voila!

In the icloud settings, I am told I need to accept the terms and conditions to use icloud. However, when I click on "Terms and conditions", I get a message "unable to connect to server". This has been happening for a week now since I upgraded to iOS 7.06. There is no problem with my wifi or cellular connectivity, all other applications work perfectly. P.S.I have never used icloud before, but wish to do so now. How do I overcome this problem?
Have you turned the iPad off then back on? That often helps with problems.

Error message "unable to connect with server. Check wifi connection"
I started having the error message "unable to connect with server. Check wifi connection" when I attempt to use search function within a certain apps and when I try to download certain magazine (eg. National geographic). I didn't have this problem with I first started using iPad, and no problems with connectivity when using other apps. Can anyone help?
You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc. -

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Please can someone help, I am just trying to set up iCloud on my iPad. When I click on accept terms and conditions it says unable to connect to server? I have googled how to do this, forums suggest to open a find friends app, then try to reconnect. It still doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Check this. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is correct as well.

After upgrading to ios7 unable to connect iCloud server!!
The same thing is happening here with my 16 GB wifi only iPad 2, and this is my first update in perhaps a year. The IOS7 update makes it to "Updating iCloud settings..." and goes no further. After a while the install fails (I guess) and I have to start over. Always ends the same way, black screen, nothing happening. Start over, same result. BTW I DO NOT USE iCLOUD ANYWAY

HT4623 unable to connect with server
Overnight my iPad sent a message that it was unable to connect with server. All other mobile devices are running fine. So I feel it is somewhere in the settings of my iPad that needs changing. I can't get on Safari or iTunes, etc., etc.
Wi-Fi issue? Are you in a home or business environment? Have you tried connecting and re-connecting to your wi-fi network?

My Facebook app stopped working on my iPad. It keeps asking me to put the FB password in settings. When I do it tells me "unable to connect to server". Can anyone help?
This problem affects many (including myself) and seems to be a bug in the integration of the FB app in iOS 7.
You can get around the login problem by turning Settings/Privacy for FB off. However, after you turn that Privacy setting back on after logging in, then iOS 7 will continue to pester you with pop-up messages to enter the password in Settings. This will invariably fail with the error message that you have already experienced, but at least it gives a way of logging in.
The solution will in my view have to come jointly from Apple and FB.
