What would cause iPad to suddenly not connect to wifi

all of a sudden both iPad and ipad2 will not connect to wifi.  have matched everything up and also reset modem

There have been many reports here of the wifi failing on ipad2's that are running ios8. It has been speculated that ios8 is the culprit but I've not heard anything definitive. Since both of your devices have failed I would check the router first by going somewhere that has free internet or friend or family that has one. Staples and stores like it generally has free internet access if you have something of the sort around your area. It will help to point you in the right direction in telling you if it''s the router or your phones if you don't have luck with basic trouble shooting.  Good luck.

  • Ipad mini does not connect SOME wifi

    My iPad mini does not connect some wifi. I tried all instructions like resetting settings, on-off router, manuel configuration but it is still same. I am using same router at my home and with same confiqs, it is connecting there, other iPads, iPhones are also connecting to wifi here, It also connects some other wifi's.
    I've read that there is no solution, I have to change it.
    Do you have any other idea? Because here-Turkey- it is not easy to do it like USA.

    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

  • How do i listen to my itunes on my ipad (3) when not connected to wifi? It shows a screen stating that the Itunes store can not be accessed.

    How can I listen to my itunes on my ipad (3) when not connected to wifi? It shows a screen stating that the Itunes store can not be accessed.

    You have to sync your music to your iPad, this can be done from a WiFi connection to your iCloud account for those purchased from the iTunes store.  Non-iTunes music has to be synced using iTunes Match, a fee is charged for that premium service.

    Does your iPad 3 have a SIM slot?

    It sounds as if your iPad, which as you say is not connected to WiFi, is trying to connect to the internet but failing.

  • IPad Mini could not connect to wifi - but Android phone was OK

    I was at the Hay Literary Festival yesterday and although they had a good free wi-fi service to which my Android Samsung phone could connect, my iPad Mini could not hold the connection....it found the wi-fi, I entered the userid and p/w and momentarily it appeared to have connected, but then lost it.  Another person near me had exactly the same issue with her iPad Mini.    As soon as we got home, my iPad connected as usual to my home wi-fi and there is no hint of an issue with it.
    So what could have been wrong at Hay?    Even when I positioned myself next to their router, my iPad still would not maintain the connection.  Is there something inherently wrong with the iPad, which I may get with other free wi-fi connections?  Or was there something unusual about the Hay setup?  Their techno-guru opined that Apple devices don't always connect, whereas Android's don't seem to have a problem.

    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.

  • In my preferences on my mac mini when i click it, i find the lock the open even after changing the password what would cause this?I use my home wifi network and have never given the password out,as I asked what could cause this?

    What could cause the lock in my preferences to seemingly to click open on there own,I use my home wifi network which is private and have never given out that password either for my network or preferences password.....help,Thank you

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

  • What would cause my computer to not be able to "all of a sudden" not be able to download videos?

    I've always been able to download videos from You Tube, using it's You Tube Downloader HD. However, yesterday when I tried I would get an error saying I couldn't download the HQ version  and did I want to try the AVI normal version.. If I click on Yes, it said unable to download the AVI normal did I want to try the 240p version. When I click on yes it says unable to download video.
    I updated the You Tube downloader, did two system restores and still not able to download any videos.
    I've never had any problems before and haven't downloaded/installed any new software.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on why this happened all of a sudden, or, where might I start looking to find a a solution?
    Any info appreciated.

    You do not need to purchase anything.  TextEdit is already pre-installed on all Macs. 

  • What would cause the finder to (not respond)?

    I'm trying to figure out why I keep getting a spinning wheel and finder not responding. When it began I had several programs open, after closing everything its stil spinning. This has happened before and is only solved by a reset. When I force quit finder it will not reopen until machine is reset. I'm wondering if this may be a sign of something wrong or soon to be wrong.

    Thanks for responding. This is what I'm working with.
      Hardware Overview:
      Model Identifier:          iMac8,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:          3.06 GHz
      Memory:          4 GB

  • What would cause iPad to go through power up but turn off once it hits the home screen?

    I put my iPad on charge last night. This morning it will not power up. If I plug it into the charger the battery symbol comes up like it needs a charge. After a few minutes the Apple logo comes up, then it flips to the home screen but then immediately turns off again. It will cycle this way as long as I keep it plugged in. Any suggestions?

    thanks for the reply but I could never get it to work. If I plug the charger in eventually the apple logo will come up but as soon as it goes to the next screen, everything shuts down. Like the battery is dead. But it's plugged into the charger.

  • What would cause a single user not to be able to edit the fields in a form? All other users are able to edit the form.

    I have a user who is unable to edit his time sheet in Adobe Reader XI. It worked fine in Adobe Reader 9.6. I recently upgraded his reader to version XI and he lost the ability to edit the fields. I re-imaged his machine and re-did his profile. He was able to edit his time sheet. A week later he's back to where he was. He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation. His time sheet shows the purple bar at the top telling him to fill out the form and that he can save data typed into the form. We're running XP SP3. How can I troubleshoot this?

    My guess would be keyboard related.  I'm guessing the field you're trying to fill has a keystroke event allowing only certain types of character.  If the keyboard is faulty OR if the keyboard's layout (English, french, numLock, capLock) have been changed, allowed character could be someplace else.
    I would first verify the presence of a particular format or a keystroke event in the format tab.  I would then test my layout by typing charaters in another application such as notepad.  Any chance the maximum character allowed would have mistaken be set to 0?
    Also, I see you mentionned:
    He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation
    By Adobe, I'm guessing you mean Reader.  Is it possible the default application on this other machine is Acrobat instead?  If it is the case, the problem would probably be the way the file was created and maybe it would require to enable Extended features.......

  • Why is my iphone 4 all of the sudden not connecting to wifi?

    My husband and I both have an iphone 4 and as of yesterday both phones have randomly stopped connecting to any wireless network. The networks show up, I have passwords in the phone for them, but the circle next to them just spins and spins.  Occasionally it connects for a few seconds, then it disconnects.  We've done nothing to change the router.  I've tried "reset network settings", I've reset the router and tried turning the phone on and off.  Nothing has worked!  We have not upgraded to ios 7.0.3 because we heard that it doesn't perform well with the iphone 4.  Is that the problem?  Both phones worked just fine until yesterday.  I would appreciate any advice

    Sounds too coincidental to have both phones go bad at once on the same day.
    It could still be your router, even if you have reset it.
    Have you tried connecting to another WIFI network, like a public WIFI or neighbor's?
