Why do i have to reconnect my iphone 5 to wifi every time?
Every time i leave work and come back to work i have to reconnect to the wifi. It's an open wifi connection shouldn't my Iphone 5 automaiticaly connect without me have to go to settings every time and reconnect? Any ideals?
My best recommendation at this point is to schedule an appointment with the local Apple store Genius bar. Alternatively you could contact Apple support. Good luck to you. Sorr I could not assist further.

LOVE FIREFOX. HAVE TWO SHIRTS, AND AN AVID MEMBER SENSE 2000. Why do i have to get "google" in google search engine every time to type in the address? It wasn't always this way. :-(
Can you clarify where you need to make this change?
Which searches aren't working for you?
*searching via the location bar (pref: keyword.URL)
*search bar on the Navigation Toolbar
*search bar on the about:home page (pref: browser.search.defaultenginename)
*other search bar (e.g. added by extension)
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Why do I have to turn on my wi-fi manually every time I log into my computer? Can't it just log in when I do?
Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reset the System Management Controller.
9. Reset the PRAM.
10. Reinstall OS X. -
WHY do I have to reset or unlock my Apple ID every time I access Itunes through my Iphone 3G?
Iphone 3G, iOS 4.2.1
Keeps requiring me to reset/unlock my apply ID!!!! This seems like it keeps asking for credit card. I put "none" which it works, then it'll stop the next day. Very annoying. I DO NOT want to list my credit card info on itunes, since apple is not secure. I had my account hacked through my Iphone, which in turn the hacker charged my itunes account for over $1000 with $50 increments.This same exact thing started happening to me a few days ago.
Every time I open the iPod app - I'm prompted for User/Password. I even changed my password, thinking I forgot it, and still - insists that I enter this information. If i hit OK or Cancel it just keeps asking like a never ending loop.
Eventually, when I do fill out the info, it will go away until I re-open the iPod app. This is more of an annoyance than a real issue - but if it's a bug, I hope it gets resolved.
Any support in this matter would be greatly appreciated. -
Why do I have to click connect next to 802.1X every time?
My certificates are trusted. My WPA Enterprise profile has the proper credentials. Ask to join new networks is checked. When I unplug my ethernet cable and use the wireless networking environment at my workplace, I'm always prompted to choose the network from a dialog that pops up. Whether I choose the network I always use or whether I cancel, my IP address gets self-assigned until I go into the Network prefpane and click "connect" next to 802.1X. Why do I have to do that every time?
Open iTunes preferences and go to the Store pane, then uncheck everything, esp. the Always check for available downloads.
oh yeah, VERY IMPORTANT... forgot to tell you that you have to be signed in to your itunes store account to make these changes, or to even see what the current settings are. If you are not signed in to your itunes account the whole pane will be dimmed and will show all boxes unchecked... HOWEVER, once you sign in to your account and open the store pane, you will be able to see the current settings AND the "Always check for available downloads box is checked by default.

Every time I turn on my MacBook Pro, before I can use any programs that access the internet (i.e. iTunes, iBank, etc), I have to go into Safari where it prompts me to perform network diagnostics. (I use a wep encrypted wireless network.)
During network diagnostics, I select my network and at some point it tells me that my network appears to be working properly and then defaults to the Apple.com webpage. I then Quit network diagnostics and exit Safari and then I am fine to do whatever I need to in the other programs.
This is quite annoying and I wish it would just remain on my network without me having to do this every time I turn it on. Is there some thing I can do or some setting that I am missing that would allow me to avoid this?Is your network hidden? See:
WiFi, Internet problems, possible solutions
Secure your network
WiFi security issues, at home and WiFi hotspots
Change the name of the network and the password, then connect manually and when it asks to save in Keychain do so.
If it's still giving problems and it'a not the router, it's the computer, then go through this list.

HT203208 Why do I have to keep putting in my security code every time I buy?
I have to put in my credit card's security code every time I buy something from iTunes. I seem to be the only person that has to do this because I've asked friends and they don't have to do this. Is there a setting I need to change in my iTunes profile?
Thanks in advance.No Problem Demo.. They said to keep trying they would get back to me later this week, she had to talk to the tech people that has a longer history than what she has availabe.. We also ran the diagnostics on the ipad and all is fine with the firmware and the battery.
One thing that leads me to believe i am locked out of the servers, when i do a restore through itunes I get that little lock in the window just above where it says the servers are unavailable.
I have also been intouch with verizon and they said they would run some diagnostics on there end and would get back to me, that was 2 weeks ago.
Thats what I like about apple they're good on the follow up. -

When I turned on iCloud backup now when I synch to iTunes it asks if I want to set up as new phone or restore from backup. Why? I have been synching this iPhone to this computer fine since I got my iPhone 4S.
1. set up as new
2. transfer you wife's purchases.
3. Just in case create one computer back up manually.
Enjoy. -
Why do I have to reconnect to my network every time I turn off my laptop? But yet it stores my password. It has been happening ever since I upgraded to OS X Lion. I have two default wireless routers I connect to (my home and work) and yet everytime I turn on my computer I have to manually select which network I want to join from the drop down menu at the top of my desktop. Any suggestions? I dont want to have to manually choose, it should just look for those two networks automatically and connnect to whichever one is available.
It was already set to Automatic......and still it doesnt connect to my network.

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
