Wifi and bluetooth doesnt work anymore - Help

Earlier today I was able connect my playbook to my home wifi network and blackberry tour through the bridge platform. Now I can no longer get bluetooth enabled on my tablet and it is unable to pick up not only my personal wifi network but others as well.
I have a Linksys router with 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Antenna, my playbook has always been connected to the 2.4Ghz band before. For some reason, it wouldtnt connect to the 5Ghz anyway. It wasnt a concern until tonight..
Since I could not connect to Wifi anymore and couldnt bring bluetooth back on either, I tried multiple restart, hard reset and finally a security wipe, hoping it would bring me back to factory default at least.
Now im back at the initial setup, but I still cant connect to my wifi. The 2.4ghz wifi wont even show in the available network, and even though I can see the 5ghz network, it wont connect.
Connecting the playbook to desktop software at this point doesnt seem to work, it tells "Setup hasnt been completed for the connected Playbook. Disconnect your device and finish the setup" bla bla bla.
Any other way to actually reset that thing ?

My bluetooth was OFF and so was my Wifi.
When I went into Bridge setup on the playbook, it said something like "you have to enable bluetooth to get bridge working" but bluetooth wouldnt come back ON anyway... so I dont know what crashed bluetooth + wifi...
This morning I updated the playbook with Desktop Software, but Im still stuck in setup trying to connect a Wifi. It will shows an available network but when I try to connect it fails and then the network is just not available anymore. Im sitting 2 feet from the router.. cant be because there is a bad signal. The wifi network is also working for anything else trying to connect to it.
I wish there was a way to get pass that setup without a wifi connection.

Installed iOS7 update and now wifi and Bluetooth not working

My daughters 4s has never skipped a beat - perfectly reliable. Just updated iOS7 with update and now both wifi and Bluetooth not working. Wifi is greyed out and when you go into bluetooth the busy twirly symbol is constantly going round. Can someone please help me as I'm pulling my hair out! My other Daughters iphone 4s is fins BUT she has not downloaded latest update - and she won't until this is resolved. If needs be I will take to store and DEMAND for it to be sorted out - either by repair or replacement as it is wholly a seemingly software issue and nothing wrong with the phone.
Gutted really as I am a huge Apple fan and customer with ipods, phones, iMac & iPads all around. If this is not resolved I fear an Apple drought may begin!

..... ty for the link, however this is the first result googling the issue..... of course it did not work....
it is really unbelivable that plenty 4s devices suffered the wifi troubleshooting just after upgrading to ios7, and finally.... i should burn wifi and bluthoot, and another hardware problems should cause % battery value is disappeared....
all this in one shot....
firmaware is not well working or is somebody bombing our devices to force us to switch to newest?

IOS 7 on iPhone 4S WiFi and Bluetooth greyed out. Help!

I upgraded to iOS 7 last night. WiFi and bluetooth were working fine. When I woke up today, the WiFi toggle in settings was greyed out and the bluetooth toggle was missing and kept showing the "waiting wheel". Help!!!!!

All done now - the issue is with the WiFi chip - and when you update IOS it checks all components out to see if they are working correctly, then shuts them down if they are not.
It is a hardware failure, and is pretty common with iphone 4S.... If your phone is over 12 months (and you didn't take out extended warranty) you have the pleasure of paying Apple £139 for a 'remanufactured' phone with 3 months warranty.
Nothing like my expectation for a premium product (with a premium price tag) - its a component durability issue, nothing to do with the user, an Apple component fault. However forget it if you think it is Apple's problem, if it is out of warranty, they aren't interested.My love affair with Apple products is over, google products here I come...
Rant over....

Why have the ports on the left of my macbook pro and the wifi and bluetooth stopped working?

Hey All,
About a week ago the two usb ports on the left of my 17" macbook pro, soundcard, wifi, and bluetooth stopped working. The power port, ethernet, remaining usb on the right are still functional. I've tried repairing the permissions and other software based solutions but to no avail. I'm worried that this might be a motherboard issue but am apprehensive about taking the ol' girl into a genius because it will probably cost more to repair than the remaining value of the system. Anyone have any ideas, can confirm my suspicion?
Thanks!

Well I'm using Google Chrome browser on Lion and when I type in that URL nothing happens. Except for the "This webpage is not available" banner.
So it looks like your website is down and what you are getting on your devices are cache.
Oh just deleted the www and now I see the page. Yup all the info looks intact. home about us products Q&A and so on.

HT6154 iOS 7 and iPhone 4S - I lost my WiFi and Bluetooth capabilities last September with the new OS, and I THOUGHT it was actually fixed this morning with the latest release - my WiFi AND Bluetooth actually worked....for about 5 minutes, but no longer

I thought this latest OS release had fixed my WiFi and Bluetooth problem, but I was excited for only a minute! I actually was able to connect to my WiFi at home and paired my Bluetooth to my car - but after a few minutes, the Bluetooth automatically turned off and the WiFi no longer worked. Is there a FIX to this??? I know it's the OS that disabled them and I'm not paying $500 for a new phone when my upgrade is not availbe for another six months!!!!

My iPhone 4S did once again did lose it's wifi connection after running perfectly for about 8 weeks.
I was streaming Pandora Radio via bluetooth connection at the time, ( not sure if that has anything to do with why the wifi dropped out again, but I thought I'd mention it anyway)
But!.... I was able to get everything up and running perfectly again by simply grabing my girlfriend's hair dyer heated it up again for about 5 - 7 minutes ( the over heated message even appeared this time) then powered it off, warped it in a plastic bag, stuck it back in the freezer for 15 minutes, took it out of the freezer, powered it back on, and Abracadabra it works perfectly again!!!
Phone has been running perfectly AGAIN for about a week now.
One strange thing this time after fixing it for a second time is that the the little WiFi symbol no longer shows at the top of the screen, but the wifi connection and everything IS RUNNING PERFECTLY!
If all I've got to do once in a while, is spend about 20 minutes with a hairdryer and a freezer to keep my iPhone 4S running perfectly.....well I'm as happy as a pig in s*** :-)
And please no comments about how I have now voided my apple support etc. I never had any to begin with (it's a 2nd hand phone and I really couldn't care less about warranty issues etc etc etc..... The phone works, and that's all that matters to me!

No wifi and Bluetooth not working

My wifi is not working. I'm not allowed to select wifi in settings as it is covered in a gray non selection mode and says "No Wi-Fi". I'm also having trouble with my Bluetooth as it disconnected spontaneously one day and decided never to come back on since. When I go to Settings>General>Bluetooth there is no option to turn the Bluetooth on, instead the small circular loading icon appears where the on/off switch should be located.
Much help appreciated.

Try restarting the iPhone.
If that doesn't do it, take a look at Apple's doc for this -> iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

Wifi and bluetooth not working

Since I loaded IOS 8.1.1 on my 4S iPhone I have lost bluetooth and the WiFi is greyed out so that I can't use it. Other 4S users in our organisation are
having the same problem and I see lots of angry iPhone users on the web ready to ditch Apple and go Microsoft or Android. I've tried the freezer trick and
Apples support suggestions but they are not the solution. The reality is that the upgrade caused this issue and we need an explanation and/or fix
Apple...please fix it or you are going to lose a once very loyal customer that’s been standardizing on Apple for its staff ever since your first iPhone.

Hi Truthsay1,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that it can be frustrating when Wi-Fi is not functioning as you would expect. Please follow the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article for help troubleshooting.

If you do not have Wi-Fi, do your updating using computer iTunes.
Make sure you have the latest iTunes 11.1 before you begin.

Has anyone else downloaded iOS 7 on a 4S and found the WiFi and Bluetooth don't work anymore?

I'm used to Apple products that "just work", but I'm not seeing it with the installation of iOS 7 on my phone (4S). I installed it earlier today, and the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth worked for about an hour, then just quit working altogether. The WiFi button is grayed out in Settings, and Bluetooth dosen't even display a button (all I get is a throbber that continuously spins). Trying to activate them through the "swipe-up" command center doesn't do the trick, and resetting the network settings also accomplishes nothing. Several reboots later, and I still don't have WiFi and Bluetooth.
Has anyone else experienced this, and is there a solution? I may just decide to eschew iOS 7 and restore my pph

After multiple attempts to restore and reboot, I finally decided to take a trip to my local AT & T store. They contacted Apple, and I explained the situation. I ended up moving to the iPhone 5, as my 4S was in the renew period. The 4S is still under warranty, so all I have to do is bring it to an Apple Store, where they will either fix or replace the phone. Looks like one of my kids will be getting a 4S :-)

I've just installed CS6 creative suite mainly for photoshop CS6. It comes with camera raw 7.0.something, but need something newer to use my canon 6d. When I download camera raw 8.5 and install the raw converter doesnt work anymore, wont even open or isnt available anymore in the plugin list. Tried to reinstall everything for a few times, but nothing helps.

When I search for updates the raw converter doesnt get update automaticly. Frustrating, is costing me the whole morning.
