What is my iPad accessing on the internet when it is charging?

Hi,
I have a WiFi only iPad Air which is currently charging. I have noticed that my router is accessing the internet. When I put the iPad in airplane mode the router stops.
I have confirmed that the following is, as usual, turned off:
1) iCloud back-up
2) Auto app updates and auto downloading of iTunes purchases
3) Backround app refresh
4) Location services (except for Find My iPad)
5) iOS is up to date so it is not the update auto downloading
6) My PC is turned off so it is not syncing via WiFi
What is the iPad accessing on the internet?
Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

There is a newer version of iTunes than 10.6.3. The newest version is iTunes 11.2.2. It may help if you update iTunes first.
Has you iPad ever been jailbroken? You can get that error message if the device has been hacked. Have you tried recovery mode.
If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support

    Dear fellows, I am having a trouble in how to connect my mac with an iPad mini in order to have an access to the internet.

  • After upgrading to the latest version of firefox. I can no longer access the internet and all traces of Mozilla Firefox are gone from my computer. I have no access to the internet, my home page or my e mails. What can be done??

    I have been using firefox for years. I downloaded the latest version and at the conclusion of the down load I was refussed access to the internet. Something about Proxy???? I checked my firewalls and security and they said that mozilla was allowed but everytime I attempt to gain access I am refused. I cant access the internet and I cant download another program to access the internet. I uninstalled Firefox and attempted to reinstall but after uninstalling Firefox I have no means to reinstall because there are no traces of it on my computer and I no longer have access to the internet. What do I do? I cant access my e mails, stored messages, favorites etc etc.

    No. After I select "Choose" the dialog box expands to provide only three choices. This is a new bug. I have only seen it in the past week or so, but it is maddening. I have observed that, while the Mozilla Foundation focuses on trivialities like which search engine should be the default, the Firefox application becomes buggier and buggier. Most of my family has switched to Chrome, and I will be following shortly. Firefox used to be a great program. Not any more. Getting assistance with a problem has also become very difficult.

  • When you download a movie with your ipad, to play it back to you need access to the internet to play it

    when downloading a movie to your ipad, is there a way to download it, so when you play it back you do not have to have access to the internet?

    If it has been fully downloaded (or synced from your computer's iTunes) then you should be able to watch it in the iPad's Videos app without needing to be online.
    If it's a rental then I've seen some posts saying that you need to be online when starting to play it (which you could whilst you still have internet access, though rentals only last for 24 hours in the US, 48 hours elsewhere, after starting to play them).

  • IPAD 2 WiFi only. Can I access the Internet when I plug into my computer that is connected to a LAN?

    I just purchased an IPAD2 and I love it. It's WIFI only, and I want to access the Internet when I plug in to my computer since I don't have 3G capability. But when I try and connect it won't allow. Is this standard? Am I preventing from high speed internet access on my IPAD 2 even when my computer is connected to the Internet? Any help would be much appreciated

    You cannot access the internet through the connection to a computer hooked up to the internet.
    It may be possible to configure your PC as a WiFi access point. Check your PC documentation for its capabilities.
    Or, purchase a WiFi router and hook it up to your ISP modem. You can hardwire your PC to the modem.
    Good WiFi routers can be purchased for $30-$40 dollars if you shop around.

  • Can I use my iphone 4 to give access to the internet to my iPad?

    Can I use my iphone 4 to give access to the internet via 3G to my iPad WiFi only?

    You can with the Personal Hotspot feature located in Settings>General>Network. This might bring additional monthly costs, so ask your carrier first. If the Personal Hotspot feature is not visibily in Settings, then it is either not enabled by your carrier or it has to be enabled by your carrier first (probably also accompanied with an additional monthly fee).

  • HT1998 My iPAD can use the internet through my airport extreme, but the airport utility does not see it so I can't create a guest password.  What am I doing wrong?

    My iPAD can use the internet through my Airport Extreme, but the Airport Utility does not see the device so I can't set a guest password. 

    If your Mac is using the Lion operating system with recent updates, it will be necessary to download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6
    Select the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab just below the row of icons
    Click the Wireless Network Options button
    Remove the check mark next to Create a closed network
    Click Done, then click Update to save the new settings and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart

  • HT4623 Has anyone had trouble installing 7.1 wirelessly on an ipad mini w/retina?  I downloaded the update, but when I attempt to install, I get an error message saying that I am not connected to the internet when I know that I am!

    It downloaded fine, but when I attempt to install it won't verify, saying that I am not connected to the internet when I know that I am!  Tried on several wifi connections while plugged into power source.  Any advice is appreciated!

    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.

  • How do I Set up a LAN with no access to the Internet?

    I have a Solaris 10 (08/07) [No longer can acess the internet]
    full install on one system, and Solaris 10 Developer Edition (09/07) on another system. Each has been auto-configured upon installation, and have reached the Internet, and registered at Sun Microsystems, from behind a router and cable modem.
    I want to create a Local Area Network, using a 4 port Netgear Ethernet Hub, model EN104tp, Each of the Solaris 10 systems, a Windows XP Pro system, and a Windows Media Edition LapTop. +(Which I want to have additional admin control, and access to the Server, from!)+
    My problem is this!
    1) Do I have to change any files to eliminate, the access to the internet from the two Solaris machines via router and cable modem? If so which, and, how do I? +(I intend for the LAN to be isolated from the internet)+
    2) What are the step by step, to set up a LAN?
    I can't seem to find that info anywhere. Maybe I am looking in all the wrong places...
    I appreciate and Thank You in advance for any help...

    The only difference between LAN and Internet is the size.
    Depends on how you define LAN -- it may be multiple subnets glued with routers or just one big or small subnet with bridges, switches and/or hubs or simply a crossed UTP-cable..
    If you don't have routers then you won't need a /etc/defaultrouter (rm -f /etc/defaultrouter; /usr/sbin/route -fn)
    You should use RFC-1918 addresses; i.e. chunks with a suitable mask of your choice as parts or whole of 10./8 (10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255), 172.16/12 (172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255) and/or 192.168/16 (192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255). Example 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0 for a (256-2=)254-node subnet; 10.20.30.40/255.255.255.252 would suite a crossed-cable subnet perfectly.
    A DHCP-server would be nice for PC's. Solaris can do that (/usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr).

  • IPhone 4s with ios 6 shows full wifi signal but can't access to the internet while other idevice can

    Hi everyone,
    I updated my iphone 4s to ios 6 a few months ago and there was no problem until I change my sim card to other carriers last two days.  This second sim card is the same sim card that I used it earlier this year with no problem.  But the problem I face is when my iphone goes to sleep mode I realised that I can't receive any push notification from imessage, Whatsapp, and Line.  When the phone is awake the wifi signal is back and I have to go to each application in order to get the message.  I have tried the following methods but it didn't work: reset all network settings, restore as new iphone, push home and power button together, switch off my iphone, turn on airplane mode, and even change my router.  At the moment I have restored my iphone as new for the 5th times.
    Now the problem is worsen, after the phone is sleep for about 5 minutes and when I awake my iphone it shows the wifi signal.  But I can't access to the internet at all.  It shows no working internet on Whatsapp. Safari can't load any web page, the weather app can't update temperature etc.  I have to switch off and switch on wifi in setting menu so that I can use the internet. And when I leave my iphone four about 5 - 10 minuetes then the problem start again. While I can't access to the internet on my iphone 4s, I used my dad's iphone 4s with ios 5.0.1 and it works just fine with the internet. My laptop can also access to the internet with the same wifi network but not my iphone.
    Does anybody know what's going on with my iphone 4s? Is it the bug from IOS 6 or my iphone is broken? Please help me.
    Thank you.

    Any update will cause problems for a few users. And those users will rush here and post "the sky is falling" stories about their experience. The 99.99% of people who have no problems after an update won't bother to post here; indeed, most of them don't even know ASC exists. FWIW, I had no problems with iOS 7 on my 4S. Your problem is most likely not related to iOS 6, but you should probably update anyway.

  • I have a first gen iPad, and it will randomly go home from the Internet when I don't press any button.  I have a wireless connection at home.

    I have a first gen iPad, and it will randomly go home from the Internet when I don't press any button.  I have a wireless connection at home.  Is this a known bug?  What can I do?

    You maybe running low on memory since you are using the original iPad with iOS 5.1.1 and the iPad is crashing. This may help and it certainly won't hurt.
    Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Do this before you launch Safari again. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. You don't have to clear the history.

  • Installing Adobe reader without access to the internet

    I would like to install Adobe reader on my laptop, but have no internet connexion at home. I downloaded Adobe reader on my USB pen, but when I tried to install it on my laptop, the installation wizard tried to connect to the internet. As it failed, it then stopped the installation.

  • Why do I have to allow or deny iTunes or any other software, access to the internet?

    Why do I have to allow or deny iTunes or any other software, access to the internet?
    I've had my MBP with Leopard since the summer of 2010. From then till this past spring, I have had my firewall on and when opening a program that needs internet access, such as: iTunes, Vuze, various office products, without a problem.
    Since this spring, each time I open the above software, I have give permission (allow/deny) internet access. So, this isn't a prolem really, I'm just curious why this is happening.
    Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core I7
    Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    OS X 10.6.8

    Did you install Little Snitch (or Hands Off)?  It will post a dialog to allow/deny apps calling out if you don't allow it to record what it is to permanently do if it sees the same call again from the same app.
    Little Snitch will post a dialog with allow/deny buttons.  But there is also three tab buttons; once, until quit, forever. "Until quit" is the default.  So it won't nag about the same call again until that app quits but it will if you relaunch that app and the app makes the same call out.  Choose "once" will allow that one call to be placed but will cause LS to nag the next time that app tries to call even if you haven't quit.  Choose Forever and it will never nag again about that specific all attempt.
    You need to train LS which apps you want to permit calling out and which ones you never want to allow calling out.  You will of course initially be nagged quite often as you are seeing.  But if you train LS to always allow the ones you want to allow eventually there will be fewer and fewer dialogs since your habits don't change that radically in the way you use your own machine.
