Why do I have a E showing where my wifi symbol should be.

why do I have an E showing where my wifi symbol should be on my iphone.

Because your iPhone is not connected to a wi-fi network or the wi-fi symbol would be shown.
"E" means your iPhone is connected to your carrier's EDGE network for internet access.

  • Why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

    why do i have to sign in to my wifi every time i turn ipad mini on

    Do #5.
    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

    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.

  • Have an iPhone 4S where the wifi settings gets disabled periodically

    Have an iPhone 4S where the wifi settings become disabled at regular intervals (several times a day), any suggestions to what can I do to prevent this? Have factory reset my iPhone without success.
    Have also tried to upgrade the phone and have now iOS 8.1.

  • Why do I have to use security code for wifi router each time I turn on iPad 3?

    Why do I have to enter wifi security code for my router each time I turn on ipad3?  I have checked all the settings I could but is this a router problem?

    If you're hiding your network SSID and/or using WEP security, I think these can cause this problem.  If you're hiding your SSID, there's really no point in doing that since there are ways people can easily see it if they're looking to do harm anyway.  If you're using WEP security, consider changing to WPA2 which is much more secure than WEP.

  • Why do I have multiple birthdays showing in iCal on my iPad using iOS 6?

    For some reason some of my birthdays are showing up as duplicates in my iCal on my iPad.  I have my calendars sync'd with Google Calendars and one of those calendars is my birthday callendar that I have setup in Google Canlendars.  Only some of the birthdays show up duplicated and others do not.  I can't seem to find any rhym or reason to why some are and some are not.  Anybody having the same problem or have a solution?

    The Calendar app pulls birthdays from the Contacts app.
    If you also have another Birthday calendar with the same birthdays, they will show up twice.

  • Why does apple have this stupid thing where you cant change your apple id to another persons and then change it back? Its really annoying and why 90 days!!!!!!!!!!

    Please help

    There is a very good reason why Apple does this.
    Basically it is to prevent people from sharing purchased content with their friends. If you buy an app that costs lets say $19.99 and you let a friend sign into your ID on his device in order to download that purchase for free - that is what most people would call stealing. And your not just stealing from Apple - you are really stealing the bulk of the money from the app developer.
    There is nothing that you can do now. You have to wait the 90 days. And it is highly unlikely that any feedback to Apple is going to matter. I don't see them changing this anytime soon.

  • Why do I have to pay for a charge that I should not of been charged then wait for the credit in two to three billing cycles? If I don't pay it I get charged $5 a month late charge?

    So I spent a considerable amount of time on the phone with Verizon about charges on my wireless bill. The conclusion of it was: Pay the charge and we will credit the charge or it will show as a balance due with a $5.00 late fee every month. I got two phones on a promotion in November. Part of the promotion was no activation fee. Got my first bill and a $70.00 activation fee was on it. On line chatted with Verizon and they said it would be credited in two to three billing cycles. I paid my bill minus the activation fee. This month I have a $5.00 late fee and a $35.00 restocking fee because they messed up and sent three phones and I returned one. It was not activated. They might credit me that money back. What is going on?????

        I am so very sorry for any aggravation you've experienced getting your billing straightened out, Nunu1957. It's true that it can take 1 to 2 billing cycles for some account balance adjustments to appear on a statement. While I know you'd rather not have paid your activation fees, the terms of your agreement do require you to do so in order to avoid late fees or even involuntary service interruptions.
    I am concerns about the restock fee. If the device was sent to you in error, you should not have been billed a restock fee. You stated that there may be a refund for the fee. Has that been confirmed?

  • How do i get itunes to accept my debit card. When i fist made my account everything was fine but after a few purchases it was declined, i have money in my account so i do not know why it would have been declined. My bankacount says it should go through?

    I set up everything with no problems the first time. I have money in my account and i made a few purchases though the app store, then all the sudden it says my card is declined... but i havemoney in my account, it makes me try to change my billing informaton. I contacted my bank and they said there is no reason that my card should be getting declined. I cannot download anything, or update the downloads that i already have... this is so fusturating, any ideas to fix this.

    This was changed. Apple no longer accepts debit cards as an acceptable form of payment. This Apple support page lists all accepted forms of payment.

  • Why do I have three versions of illustrator and which one should I use?

    Hello,
    I have CC, CC 64 bit, and CC 2014 on my computer.  Is there a difference?  I originally downloaded both CC and CC 64 bit because I didn't know if it mattered or not which one I use.  Then the 2014 version was in creative cloud, and I figured it was an update, but now I have three versions. 
    I use Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Thanks,
    Caleb

    Caleb,
    CC2014 is a new version, which in some ways are closer to the CS versions because some features have been reintroduced.
    If you are happy with CC2014 you may uninstall the others.

  • Why is my wifi symbol greyed out?

    Hi,
    As the title suggests - my wifi symbol is greyed out (as it used to look when no wifi was available). However - my wifi is working well (I'm on it now!).
    I've done a bit of searching, and the closest problem I can see to this is when people have an exclamation mark on their wifi symbol. However - this isn't the problem I'm having.
    Does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks.

    When I click on the symbol, all available networks are displayed. I can click on another network and connect that that fine too. Often, when I swap around wifi networks, the symbol becomes 'blacked out', as I'd expect, rather than greyed out.
    When I click on System Preferences - Network, I see a green light with connected underneath.
    Typically - yes, the symbol is greyed ouf from when I start the computer.
    I hope this helps.

  • I have an iTunes account where I have downloaded Digital movies & I am able to see the list on the desktop of the original downloads. When I log on another device with my login I do not see my list to access them. Why can't I access from another device

    Hey GingCarv,
    Great question. You'll want to download the movies from your purchase history. The following article explains how to do so:

  • We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? home sharing is not selected

    We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!

    Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
    He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
    Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente.

  • How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something if i use firefo

    How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?
    Windows Computer

    1) If you are talking about the file names on the computer, there is a
    setting to turn off known file types. Open your file browser. Then
    just under the location bar, press '''Tools,''' then '''Folder Options.'''
    A new window will open. Select '''View.''' Look for
    '''Hide Extensions For Known File Types.'''
    2) Never NEVER '''NEVER''' download anything unless you know what
    it is. If a web site claims it needs to download something, what is it?
    It could be something like the flash player, '''or a virus ! !'''
    Ask questions, or go somewhere else.
