My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

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 drooping 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.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

I'm can't get iMessage to work with all my Apple devices.

So i cant seem to get iMessage to work across all my Apple devices. My wife and I use the same Apple ID but have different phone numbers. Is there a way to get all our messages on our shared devices and our personal messages on our phones? (iPad, iMac, MacBook Pro: Shared)

Hi,
I have this set up with one Mac and two iPhones (Not Multiple Macs)
I added the Apple ID to the Mac for iMessages.
I then added the Apple ID to the first iPhone.
I accepted the pop ups on the Mac so that the iPhone was Listed in Receive At (you might have to Restart the App on the Mac to trigger this).
I then added the Apple ID to the Second iPhone and again accepted the pop ups in the Mac.
IF this is what you think you did but it is not working remove the Apple ID from both iPhones
Place the iPhones in Airplane mode fro a few minutes to Break with the server.
when back in normal mode and in Settings > Messages check the iPhone number is ticked and active.
(Send a Test message to the Apple ID (Mac) to check)
Add back the Apple ID if the test works.
Restart the Mac version to trigger the pop ups and Accept.
Repeat the set up with tests for send iPhone.
I have never set this up with one ID on two or more computers but it should work.

I have a I Pad, which I down loaded IOS 7. I have a HP Photo smart D7460, which works within my wifi internet system. Works with all other Apple devices. How can I join the IPad?

iPad trouble with printing on hp D7460. All other apple devices work with it wifi.

There's a list of printers that support AirPrint, the native mechanism for printing from iOS, here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If your printer doesn't support AirPrint, HP has app that enables printing to some of their other wireless printers. Third-party printing apps such as PrintCentral are also available. All such apps have limitations, so check them out thoroughly before you pay for any such app.
You can also route the printing through your computer. If you have a Mac, Printopia would be worth a look. Fingerprint is another option that is available for both Mac OS X and Windows system. You could also consider an AirPrint-capable print server. Lantronix makes a couple of models, including one that supports a USB printer:

How do I ONLY sync my iPhone contacts with all my Apple devices and iCloud?

The contacts on my phone are what I need and use and what I need to back up. I want these contacts on my iCloud, my Pad, and my MacBook Pro. How do I do this? I have connected my iPhone with iCloud, same with my iPad but all my contacts are messed up and out of date. So I have some contacts on my iPhone that are not in iCloud and hence not on my iPad or my MacBook. I am worried that when I get my new phone all of them will be gone as my Phone is only where everything is stored.
How do I delete my contacts that are not on my iPhone, and then update all my devices to be in line with my iPhone ONLY.
Help
... please.

You need to provide some information.
1. What model iPhone? running what iOS?
2. Are you running Leopard 10.5.8?
You can connect and sync using iTunes and back up your iPhone to your Mac. Without the above answers that's what you got.

I deleted a contact from my phone and it synced with all my other devices including my Mac. However, I have setup time machine and have many previous backups. Can I open or use a file in back ups to get my contact back? Where and which one? Thanks!

Its all in the question.
I have backups from months ago.
And ICLOUD deleted my contact from others devices.

Bring the Contacts window forward, then enter Time Machine and scroll back to a snapshot that includes the contacts you want to restore. Select the contacts and click the Restore button in the lower right corner of the screen.
If you don't have a Time Machine backup, but your contacts are all on iCloud and haven't been overwritten, then you can recover them by following the instructions on this page. Double-click the downloaded file to import it into Contacts. This procedure will not work if you've synced an empty Contacts database to iCloud.

TS3276 Is it possible to delete mail from your iPhone and it be deleted from all your Apple devices?

I would like to delete mail from all my Apple devices in one go rather than having to access each individually and then read/delete on each, is this possible? I have a Mac Book Pro an iPad mini and an iPhone 5.
Any help would be gratefully received.

It depends on the email you use, if you have a provider that only allows POP then it is not possible. If your provider supports Imap or Exchange then it is.

What are the best AirPlay speakers for Apple devices?

What are the best AirPlay speakers for Apple devices? I would like to get some good speakers to be used with my iPod, iPhone and iPad. Ideally, they should be able to play using AirPlay and be quite powerful, but with a good design if possible.
I am particularly interested in the Fidelio range of speakers by Philips.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Best is going to be a matter of opinion. What environment are the speakers going to be used in? How large is the room? What type of music are you going to play? What features/functions would you like in the speakers? What price range are you looking for? All of these are going to effect which speakers will best fit your needs.

Somehow a new contact became associated with my email. Now all my email has her name on it. This happens only on my iMac, not on my other Apple devices. I have removed my email from her contact card and deleted her from previous recipients on Mail.

Check the settings in the Accounts for Mail.
Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Click on your email Account in the left column > What appears under Full Name in the right column?
If that is the incorrect name you're describing change it to your correct name.

The Yahoo password in the mail settings of all my Apple devices has reverted to an old version and, no matter what I try, following advice from the community, it always returns to the old password. How can I solve this issue?

The Yahoo password in the mail setting on all my apple devices - iPad, iPhone 5, mini iPad - has permanently reverted to an old version. I have tried all the suggestions provided by the community so far but nothing works. When I delete the account and re-enter the details, the updated password is recognised and seems to save but, when I go back into the account, the old password is the one that is there.
I am desperate! How can I solve this issue please?

All (only) Apple devices dropping home wifi. What do I do?

All my Apple devices (2006 iMac, 2012 iMac, Apple TV and son's iPhone 4 - when he's over) dropping Wi-Fi. What gives? Window 7, Window 8, Android tablets, Android phone, HP network Printer and even blackberry playbook and phones have no issues. Only the Apple devices!! Yes we have a lot of devices here but never more than 4 are ever here so not all devices are working at the same time.
I'm at my wit's end. It first happened when I pulled out my (never had any issue with) 2006 iMac for my son to use while he's staying with us. As I was updating everything, it kept dropping off the network. Now, my 2012 iMac has started doing it too as well as my (3r gen) Apple TV. I can't even watch one TV show (42 minutes-'ish) without having to reset 4 or 5 times.
Why only Apple!!! I have my 3TB digital collection connected up to my iMac and often watch movies from (i.e.) the bedroom using a Win 7 Laptop hooked to a TV pulling the file from it. Never used to be an issue but now I can hardly ever connect to it because it dropped off the network.
Can anyone give me actual USEFUL information on how to fix this?

Oh.. and Drew... I have no idea what you're talking about. I have no clue as to how to "record" nor what "deauth" is :-( though, among the people I know, I am, at times, the most knowledgeable computer geek I know but I really only know very little. Sorry.
It's not the first time
Deauth packets are used to tell a device to 'get of the network'. They don't require an authenticated connection, so anyone with a wifi card can use them to spoil your day. There are Linux tools that have the ability to target Apple devices by MAC address. It's tough to test unless you can run an app to see if there are lots of deauths being sent to your devices (I haven't tried on OS X, hence my question to the other users). There should be a way to get better logging of wifi disconnects on OS X. This covers it iirc…
http://hak5.org/episodes/episode-706
Since Android is also disconnecting too it's probably something else. You'd need to check for overlapping channels from other networks & do all the regular wifi debugging. iStumbler can help you see other networks (& overlapping channels).
It appears the wireless diagnostics has the ability to help too, I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned…
About Wireless Diagnostics
Read through that it should give you some tools to see what is happening.

HT5622 We are a family of 4, each with their own apple device. Is it best for us to set up individual apple ID's for things like ITunes? If we do can the same e-mail address be used for all of them or do we need to create e-mails for the kids? Thank-you

Thank-you

1. Yes, it is.
2. You may be able to use the same address by adding a plussed suffix to it, such as [email protected] If that doesn't work, create separate emails.

the iCloud webserver wont accept my password for a .mac login, nor will it allow me to change it
See if you can change your password > Apple - My Apple ID
If that doesn't help, launch iTunes on your computer.
From the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.

Click OK.
Restart your computer.
