TS1398 Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon?

Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon? I have implemented ALL of the troubleshooting tips, but my WiFi icon is still missing, and it will NOT recognize the internet connection that I know to work on my computer and iPhone.

Try the following:
1. Reset the AirPlay devices
2. Reboot the router
3. Reboot the iPad
Note: The AirPlay icon is now in the Control Center

Hello,
Where may I be able to contact and speak with a prepaid representative? Strictly through phone calls? (I am at work 12 hours a day)
And I apologize for posting in the wrong area - I saw Apple support so I went here.
I'm almost certain my phone is the problem. I have gone through resetting the network settings a dozen times on my phone, even did it on my dad's. Now my texts are beginning to do the same when I text my fiance.
Resetting the network settings DOES work -- the problem is it will work for a day or two or for only a few hours - then I'll have to do it all over again.

Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on facetime?

Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on FaceTime and tries to constantly reconnect?

Does it happen anywhere that you use FaceTime or only in your home WiFi network? If it happens with your home network, have you tried power cycling your router? Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
Turn WiFi off and on in the settings. Reset the network settings.
Have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all?

Call AppleCare (number is in the manual) and then request to speak to Customer Service. Be patient, organized and articulate and they will transfer you. When you get to speakt to someone then explain your problem and ask for their help. You should have all your receipts, invoices, trouble ticket numbers etc available for reference.
You can also take to an Apple Store in Spain, while this may not be convenient at least then an Apple person can see the machine and work on it.

For Experts: Why does LabView cause System reboot while accessing hardware with driver?

Hello NI Developers!
I use LabView 7.1 under Windows XP
I have a programm console application which accesses through Jungo Windriver PCI-E board.
This program works fine - and performs DMA data transfer between PC and Board's memory.
In order to implement this console application work together with LabView I did following:
1) Added this function inside the source:
_declspec(dllexport) void LVMainFunction(uInt32 *IntValue);
_declspec(dllexport) void LVMainFunction(uInt32 *IntValue)
    AllocConsole();                   //Open new console window
   SetConsoleTitle(L"Debug Window"); //Set a title for console window
    freopen("CONOUT$","a+",stdout); //redirec standard output stream to current window so
                                    // so we are able to see "printf" outputs
   freopen("CONIN$","a+",stdin);    //redirec standard input stream to current window so
                                    // so we are able pass inputs from keyboard
   main();                          //Call applications main function which does all the work
2) Compiled this new source as DLL library
3) Call LVMainFunction(...) function from LabView using Call Library Node
In the result: Executing VI - opens new console window, shows debug outputs and receives keyboard inputs.
It works fine till the last function, which perform DMA data transfer - and reboots PC.
1) Why does this happen?
2) I understand that opening console from Call Library Node, attaches together this console window and running VI. So If I close one of them - both windows closes.
   So does LabView have somekind of restrictions of accessing Hardware's functions?
I can read Board's resource information and view size of memory on board, interrupt functions and other information about device, but when I try to reach
DMA my system reboots. And I understand that this should be some kind of LabView problem, cause I tried different implementations, even without use of
console window - and the result is the same.
3) Should I split the program in to two separate processes and perform data exchange using Sockets or Pipes techology?
Thank you in advance!

Hello!
At LAST!!!
I solved this problem!
From the beginning I was following National Instruments manual on how to build DLL with external IDE:
http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361A-01/lvhowto/building_library_project/
Set the Struct member alignment control to 1 Byte.
Now this option caused my PC to reboot!
So could someone explain why this happened? and If it is a bad tip, so it's better to remove from manual. Then other people will not have such problems as I did
- wasting 2 monthes of time determining the problem.
I changed it to Set the Struct member alignment control to DEFAULT.
and now everything works fine.
Regards

Why does Adobe constantly wants to Update itself?

Why does Adobe Acrobat Reader constantly wants to Update itself by presenting an irritating dialog box that asks the user to update?
It's just a document reader - how many times do you want to update it? Why aren't all bugs/features added before it is released?
If you really want to update everyday, why can't you do it on the sly?

The latest version is 9.3.1 and it's been out for a little while now.
Your update didn't go right, or it would recognize the latest version and the updater would shut down before asking you to update.
Try uninstalling Reader and downloading the latest build. I doubt it will be asking you to update all the time after thet.

Why does Firefox require a reboot after uninstallation?

Basically, my problem was already asked here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/916857
But that thread is marked as "solved", when in fact this problem is nowhere near being solved, so I am asking it again in a new, "unsolved" thread.
In former times Firefox never needed a reboot, and it does not make any sense because no Firefox-related file should be in use at the time of uninstallation. (Forget about updating in my case; I am doing a clean uninstall, and Firefox insists in rebooting anyway.)
Windows reboots due to software uninstallations are generally only required in the following cases:
* If files that belong to Windows are being modified. I hope Firefox does no such thing...
* Part of the software being uninstalled is still running, so that its files are in use. However, I completely closed Firefox and even used the task manager to make sure no firefox-related processes were running.
Some applications (i.e. Adobe Reader) install fancy "Speed Launchers" that are loaded at boot time and stay resident in memory. Unless these processes are manually killed before uninstallation, they may also be the reason why a reboot is necessary. However, Firefox should not do such a thing.
To summarize it, the question is: '''Which part of Firefox is running during uninstallation so that removal of the corresponding files is required?
Generally, I consider this a very bad software behavior, one that I would expect from some commercial software producer who wants to install his speedlaunch or logging stuff on my computer, but not from a free project like this one.
Firefox Portable does not do this, easily proving that technically it is not necessary. Earlier versions of Firefox also refrained from doing such a thing.
A piece of software requesting a reboot without good reason is what I consider a bug.

Aw, c'mon. Writing to the Windows registry never requires a reboot. This is ridiculous.
And Firefox did not need that bad behavior up to version 8 either. Why now?
This is not a Windows issue. You cannot alter files in Linux either if they are currently locked. The thing is that there is no sensible reason for any Firefox-related files to be locked at uninstallation time, which is why there should be no problem removing them.
I do not mean to rant, even though I am disappointed by this new behavior and would like to have it changed, but the least thing I really would like to know is exactly what is causing this. Why have the new versions of Firefox been programmed to require a reboot? Exactly which files need to be removed or changed that cannot be removed/changed during regular uninstallation, so that their removal/change needs to be scheduled for the next restart of Windows?

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 Itunes 10.6 keep opening itself (Windows7 64 bit)

Ok so this has been driving me nuts if I open iTunes once it will continuely reopon itself and with my computer it happens within seconds after closing iTunes. I went to the specific 64 bit download page from apple for iTunes. I have uninstalled itunes then went through and removed every apple file I could find on my hard drives. After doing this tedious task I reinstalled using their "64bit Client" and the problem presists. The only work around I have found is to change itunes.exe and ituneshelper.exe to windows 7 compatiblity mode and change it to run as administrator. But now when I try to use wifi sync iTunes cannot open. I have been reading and everyone says close third party apps, but I have none. I even uninstalled my Logitech G15 software thinking that was causing the problem. I know apple have gone the way of "we are a hardware company" but I don't see why they have to create absolute garbage software like this which runs their hardware. It happened during 10.5.4 and now 10.6, and from what I can see other people have been having this issue way before me.

Refer to this discussion link. It's the Logitech Gaming software.
