  • Why does my iPad keep losing the Internet?

    I keep having to reboot my iPad as it keeps on dropping its connection to my wireless network. Other devices, iPhone, laptop etc don't have this problem so I don't think it is a problem with the network, can anyone help?

    1. Have you tried changing the security settings on router e.g. WEP, WPA, WPA2
    2. Have you tried changing wireless protocol e.g. a/b/g/n

    Why does my IPad say "sending the message content to the server failed"  I have checked the wi-fi connection and everything is fine and the email addresses are correct so what's wrong

    Is it an ordinary mail without attachments and links in the body of the email? If so, try deleting the email accountb and setting it up again.

    Hello,
    I would like to strongly recommend that you update your version of Flash Player to our currently released version (17.0.0.169) and enable auto updates.  The version you are using is insecure and opening your computer (and all of your data) to being easily exploited by bad guys.
    As for the error you are receiving, this is most likely a restriction from the website.  Each developer is able to specify what the required minimum version of Flash and require their users to have at least that version installed.  The detection that is occuring and the message that you are seeing on the website isn't part of Flash Player, but instead part of the website's code.
    If you go to this page and click the "Check Now" button, what is displayed (OS, browser and version number)?  Do you see the "tree" animation playing below?
    Flash Player Help

  • HT1430 Why does my iPad shut off about every 1 minute and then comes back on?

    Why does my iPad shut down every minute and then come back on ?

    Try to reset your settings... Settings--general--reset (at bottom of list)--reset all settings
    Try an iOS software restore

    Otherwise you may need to have apple repair the device

  • Why does my iPad often lose the Wifi connection?

    Hello all -
    Often when I am using my iPad at home (which is where i use it 95% of time), the WiFi connection will simply disappear - sometimes every 2 minutes of so.  Sometimes, when I pull up the "Utility" screen from the bottom (sorry, don't know the correct name), and then unclick the WiFi connection, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on - the connection comes back.  But that probably only works 10-30% of the time.
    The way I can always make it come back is to go to the Settings app, click on Wifi, where it shows no connection.  Then if I turn on WiFi, after a couple of seconds I see my network appear under the "Choose a Network..." section, and then a few seconds later, see it appear in the top section.
    Does anybody know why this might be happening and what I can do to fix it?
    Thanks.

    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.

  • Why does my iPad drop from my Safari session?

    Since I upgraded my iPad to version 5.0.1 my Safari session drops in the middle of whatever I'm doing. Anyone else having this problem?

    Hi,
    Tap Settings > Safari
    Tap Clear History
    Then tap Clear Cookiees and Data
    Restart your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If that helped, clear all the data more often to avoid problems. Not much different then emptying a browser cache on a computer.

  • Does an ipad connect to the internet even if no one turns it on?

    I lost my ipad and put it in lost mode from findmyiphone, but it will not show unless it connects to the internet. How will it connect to the internet if no one can open it? It has a password. Does it automatically do that if I have connected to that wifi previously?

    It can auto connect to a trusted WiFi router if someone has it on. Should do it even without entering the passcode.

  • Why does Apple TV drop off my network and have to be restarted to reappear?

    My Apple TV constantly drops off my Airplay menus on both iMacs, two iPads, and two iPhones.  It will reappear when I restart it, but it will diaper after being activated.  Also, I can't access my home-sharing-enabled computers from the Apple TV menu unless I restart it.  This happens every time I try to use it either to use it for AirPlay or Home Sharing.

    The Apple TV is connected to my network on ethernet. After the Apple TV has restarted it will work for a while until it is either unselected from AirPlay or until after the movie is finished and I have disconnected it from home sharing.  It's just inconvenient to have to restart it every time you want to use it.

  • Why does my printer cut off the top of copies?cc=​us

    My printer cuts off the top of copies.  Is there some way to adjust the printing size at the top?

    gedwardc, what is the size that you are trying to scan? Is it a legal document or a normal letter sized document? Has it worked before, and this is a recent developement?
    I want you to do hard reset in the meantime, so unplug the machine from both the back of the unit and the wall outlet for thirty second, and then plug it back in.
    Let me know!
