WIFI prob? (latest update 6.0.2) iphone5
After the most recent iOS update (6.0.2), my iphone seems to not find wifi connections appropriately..which causes my battery to drain a lot faster. If my phone DOES find a wifi connection, upon connecting, there will be no wifi connection icon at the top of my phone screen. Frankly, sometimes the phone won't even display the router, when there is CLEARLY a wireless signal present. The connection continuously drops. This didn't start happening until the most recent update of iOS.
Is anyone else having this problem? I am certain this has upset a lot of users....Feedback appreciated.
I tried that, JimHdk (thanks for the advice), but it's not working for me.
My iPhone 5 (6.0.2) can locate my network, and it even seems to accept my password, but it shows the little spinning wheel next to my network name and is never able to actually make the connection. As such, I can't backup to iCloud and my battery drains quickly. Any additional help or ideas would be much appreciated -- thanks!

Cant connect to wifi after latest update
The latest iOS7 update has killed my wifi connection. The system says it connected but it cannot be used??
Hey there gjcrewe,
It sounds like your wifi is connected on your iPhone, but you cannot get to the internet. I want to recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
If the above does not fix the issue, I would next try these steps:
Unable to access the Internet while connected to Wi-Fi
If you're using a public or commercial network, you may need to log in or subscribe.
Check to see if you have a self-assigned IP address:
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected and tap .
If your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx, you may not be able to access the Internet.
If you do not have a self-assigned IP address, see if other Wi-Fi devices on your network have Internet access.
If they do not, consult with your network administrator or ISP for further assistance.
If they do, reset network settings on your device by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

HT201210 no b/t or wifi after latest update on 4s?

My wife has a 4s and after same update her bluettoth and wifi have ceased to function.
B/T searches endlessly (spinning star) but wifi is "greyed" out and doesn't respond to even turn wifi on.

Any suggestions apart from dropping it in to Apple as this is 600k's out of my way.

After the update to Nokia Belle, my 3G and/or Wifi connection doesn’t work anymore. I get the error message: "Connection failed. Access denied". What should I do?
After the update to Nokia Belle you have to re-enter Wifi settings (network, security type, password, etc) or define your network as a new access point. There are also some problems where certain apps, for example "SPB Wireless monitor", are preventing your phone from accessing 3G and/or Wifi. To check this and solve your problem please do the following:
Check Nokia Store via www.nokia.com/store > "My stuff" if you have previously downloaded SPB Wireless monitor to your phone
If yes, please close Nokia Suite via File > Exit
Connect your phone to computer with a USB cable in mass storage mode (you can set this in the Notification bar via USB > mass storage)
Open Windows Explorer on your computer, go to [phone drive letter]:\Private and rename or delete these folders: 20042D1D and 101f7989
Close Windows Explorer, and unplug the USB cable after using the "safely remove hardware and reject media" function
Reboot your phone
Configure your wireless network, ie. enter accesspoints and passwords, or try to connect using your mobile data plan.
If you want to reinstall SPB Wireless monitor, go to Nokia store to redownload itAfter the update to Nokia Belle, there are problems with Wifi connection using LEAP authentication. The phone already tries to connect before I have time to fully enter the username/password. What should I do?
To solve this timeout problem, please edit the Wifi internet access point. You can find it via via Menu>Settings>Connectivity>Settings>Network destinations. It will be under one of the destinations, most likely in Internet destinations. Then edit the access point via Internet access point > WLAN security settings > EAP Plugin Settings > Eap-LEAP and set "Username" and "Password". Make also sure to set "Prompt password" to "No".
After the update to Nokia Belle, I cannot anymore connect to Internet with my phone. I get the error message: “Connection failed. Access denied". What should I do?
The apps "SPB Wireless Monitor Lite" and "SPB Wireless Monitor" may be preventing your phone from accessing the internet, if they have been downloaded to your phone before the Nokia Belle update. If possible, please uninstall these apps before updating to Nokia Belle. If you are experiencing data connection problems after the Nokia Belle update, then please check if you had downloaded either of these apps earlier on your phone by browsing via your PC to Nokia Store: www.nokia.com/store > "My stuff". If you can see either of these apps, then please first try fix the problem by redownloading these apps on your phone:
Connect your phone with a USB cable to PC and ensure that you have Nokia Suite running
In Nokia Store, select the name of these apps under "My stuff" and then select "Download" > "Download on PC"
After the apps have been redownloaded, please reboot your phone and verify that you are able to browse the internet on your phone for example by opening www.nokia.com in your phone’s browser
If you still get the same error message or if you not able to re-install these apps from Nokia Store for some reason, only then follow the remaining steps to manually disable these apps
Close Nokia Suite via File > Exit@navendukumar100

Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update.
Problems Receiving Emails and some data on WIFI since latest software update.
My blackberry torch will not receive emails on wifi since the latest software update, I've tried numerous wifi networks and several handsets, even had them replaced and received a brand new. Still the same problem.
When turning off the wifi network on the torch, the phone will stall for 5-10min while it tries to communicate with the network (vodafone) to receive outstanding emails and data.
Can someone please inform Blackberry and get a quick fix on thisSounds like you have Do NOt Disturb turned on.

I have my daughters Ipod, my iphone, my wife's Iphone and Ipad on the one Apple ID. Since the latest update we are receiving Imessages from our daughter's Ipod with my wife's caller ID on the one message strand.
Is it possible to differentiate between all the devices?Can I fix this problem?I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases. -
I downloaded the latest update on my MacBook Pro last week. Now I keep getting a pop-up that iCloud wants my password from an email login I haven't had in a year. I can't find where to delete that email login. iCloud is also showing my new email login, plus a bogus one I accidentally created trying to fix this problem. Now the calendar on my MacBook Pro won't sync with my iPhone5.
It sounds like you have the Find my iphone Activation lock for sure. Go to www.icloud.com/find and see if you put in that Apple ID that is coming up and yoru password to see if you are able to sign into the account that way to turn it off. If you are unable to, you will have to contact AppleCare by phone (chat cannot handle account lock outs or forgotten password due to not being able to verify your identity) and see if they can reset it. And are you sure the Apple ID that is coming up yours?

My iMessage stopped working when I did the latest update on my phone. I have literally tried everything to reset it. I am currently not in the US, but my iMessage has always worked when I was in wifi and my phone is still activated. I have tried to reset my network settings, my location, and even the reset all settings. When I click on my settings and iMessage it says that it is still waiting for activation... and my phone number is grayed out. I am able to recieve an iMessage to my email and that could work for right now but i'm not sure how to start a conversation the defaults to being sent from my email and not my cell phone number. please help!
Hi shanny202.
Really strange problem you have there. I have a few questions though.
Please try again and try to make the phone as a new without restoringen with you iCloud-data or backup-data from iTunes. Maybe it is something wrong with the data (strange).
Anyway, i think you should call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store, don't forgot to make a Genius Bar reservation.

Could you please help me to fix my iPhone 4S
After the latest update we've had to iOS 6, I was not able to use FaceTime, it kept giving me an error that I was supposed to wait for an activation code which never arrived, after that I read many solutions which included resetting the networks, which I did to try and fix my problem. What this actually did was to break my network settings an now it doesn't recognize any wifi signal unless I have the router next to me and even the it is difficult.
Now I don't have FaceTime or access to wifi with my iPhone!
Please help me!Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility. -

Cannot download the latest update 7.1.1 even though plugged in and on wifi keeps saying error help!!!!!
I am not getting an errr #. It just says that there are purchases on my ipod, not in my itunes. I transfer all of my ipod purchases into itunes. Then I try an download the new version of my ipod 7.1.1. It still says there are purchases on my ipod touch. So I just hit continue because their are not purchases on my ipod, that aren't in itunes. It extracts the software, and backs up ipod. Then itunes just closes. When I reopen it I get the same message A new iPod software version (7.1.1) is available for the iPod “My" iPodl”. Would you like to update your iPod now? My imac has recently been restored to as new, I have the newest ipod touch, and my version of itunes is also the newest version. The only thing that I can assume is that the problem, is another untested & bad update, from Capn Cook.

MBPR wifi issues after latest update to 10.9.2
Hi all,
After the latest update to 10.9.2 my Macbook Pro Retina (1st gen) seems to be having issues re-connecting to wi-fi after I wake it up from sleep. Although I've read stories about wifi-issues with the retina line in general, I've been lucky enough to have mine run pretty smoothly so far. That is until the latest update ... for some reason, this happens EVERY time i close and open my laptop.
And yes, it's a easy fix. Usually all i need to do is to turn off wifi and turn it on. But it's getting slightly annoying having to do that every time.
Has anyone else had this issue? and are there by any chances a solution for this problem?
Appreciate the help!
All the best
