Wifi sync iphone and appletv not working

Ever since installing 10.8 on my 2010 iMac the wifi has been as source of constant problems. First was the spinning pinwheel of doom and freezing top right menu (resolved by turning the wifi icon off in that menu).
Now the AppleTV does not connect to the iMac - it had no problems before 10.8 and still connects to our MacBook which is still running 10.7. The AppleTV says connecting, then times out saying connection failed. All settings are the same as for when it did work. Again I suspect it is a WiFi issue, as concurrent to these problems is
my iPhone 5 iOS6 cannot 'see' the iMac. Under General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync on the iPhone it says either it can't find it or times out while looking... iTunes on the iMac can see the iPhone, but if you try to sync it says the session failed to start.
Please someone!!! Can I change some sort of Mac address or something?

Hi,
One of the common issues with iCal syncing appears to be some corruption between the sync data and the iCal (local) data.
I'd been having syncing issues between computers, until I stumbled upon this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1377227&tstart=0
...and it worked... (though this was initially written for .Mac syncing, I just ran through the procedure now, with MobileMe, and it worked flawlessly)
Kinda long, but worth a try... (check if you get this 'inconsistent data' error message, you can go to the MobileMe part of your System Preferences, select the Sync tab, and hover over the Calendars - see what it says)
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Dirk

  • TS1398 my Ipad 2 will work on wi-fi when I set up a hot spot on my iPhone but not the wireless in my house.  My iPhone, my wife's iPhone and iPad all work on the home wi-fi.  Just not my iPad.

    My iPad2 will not work on my home wi-fi.  My iPhone, my wife's iPhone and iPad all work just not my iPad.  It will however work when I set up a hot spot on my iPhone.  Any ideas?

    Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds.
    On your iPad use Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings
    If you need more help please give the make, model and version of the WiFi router that you are using.
    Does your router have the latest firmware from the manufacturer installed?
    What IOS levels are in use on your various iDevices?

  • Iphone and ipad not working with USB3?

    for some 3 months now, when I connect my iphone or ipad to the pc nothing happens.
    I tried to look it up in the device manager and it said: Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is an older USB device and might not work with USB3.0
    Plug the device into an available USB2.0 port and click next. Otherwise, click cancel.
    Anyone had the same problem? Any solution that doesn't require being a computer engineer?
    Thanks

    nothing else connected,
    I used to simply plug the iphone or ipad and a folder will open giving me choices of what to do (open the device, copy pictures...) nothing happens anymore on both ipad iphone, I can't access them to copy the pictures, videos...

    The raw file and TIFF file are two completely different things. The TIFF is fully rendered gamma encoded whereas the Raw has no gamma encoding. So, what you're trying to do will always result in two completely different renderings.

  • Plug in iphone and iphoto not working

    when iphone is pluged in iphoto doesnt work ? sits nd spins

    Hey Katherine,
    WOW! For noob I think you've done a fantastic job.
    It looks like you have an unclosed div tag somewhere. Running your site through a validator returns this:
    Line 63, Column 62: Unclosed element div.
         <div id="primaryContainer" class="primaryContainer clearfix">
    Could be the cause of your problem. One thing you can also try is adding a clearfix to #box6. Not sure if this'll work but give it a shot.
    In your code, where you have:
    <div id='box6' class='clearfix'>             <a href="http://www.facebook.com/GoLabotec" target="_blank" title="Facebook">  <img id='image8' src='img/facebook.png' class='image' /> </a>       <a href="http://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=labotec" target="_blank" title="Twitter">  <img id='image9' src='img/twitter.png' class='image' /> </a>       <a href="http://labotec.com/?page_id=58" target="_blank" title="Contact">  <img id='image10' src='img/contact.png' class='image' /> </a>         </div>
    Change it to:
    <div id='box6' class='clearfix'>             <a href="http://www.facebook.com/GoLabotec" target="_blank" title="Facebook">  <img id='image8' src='img/facebook.png' class='image' /> </a>       <a href="http://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=labotec" target="_blank" title="Twitter">  <img id='image9' src='img/twitter.png' class='image' /> </a>       <a href="http://labotec.com/?page_id=58" target="_blank" title="Contact">  <img id='image10' src='img/contact.png' class='image' /> </a><div class="clearfix"></div></div>

  • Intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work.

    Hi,
    I have an issue where intermittently iphone 6 and 6 plus is wifi connected but internet does not work. iMessage works though.  Toggling the wifi setting clears
    the issue temporarily but it occurs again.  Running iOS 8.3 now.  This was the case on iOS 8.1 and 8.2 as well. 
    I have tried the typical troubleshooting steps (reboot/reset network settings/disabling location services for wifi/upgrade/etc)
    My router is an EA9200 router with 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz.  It is configured with all bands with the same name.
    All other devices in my house works perfectly fine and has no disconnects (ipad/macbook air/tv's/receivers)
    My thought is that iphone 6 cannot handle well the moving around between bands. 
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

    Have you tried to reboot your router by turning off the power (you may have to unplug it from the power source), then waiting about 30 seconds, then turning it back on?  This seems to solve a lot of problems.

  • I bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working

    i bought my iphone 4 through ebay and its unlocked. the problem is that my phone does not sync straight away. I sync my music file through autofill. I want to sync ringtones but its not working.
    I saw cidya aap so i m not sure if it was jailbroken or not before but it is back to normal settings.
    My problem started when I tried to sync my music files. I pressed 'sync' all it says is waiting for sync start, preparing to sync and then waiting for the changes to be applied. but it does not sync at all.
    I found a way to sync my music files through autofill but I really wanted to sync ringtones but its not syncing and I really wanted to put ringtones in my phone please help.

    If you see the cidya app, your iPhone is hacked with the cutsie term for this being jailbroken. This also means all the built in security has been removed making the iPhone as insecure as an android device.
    Restore the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup to get rid of that hacking garbage. If the iPhone has hacked to be unlocked, the iPhone will no longer be unlocked when doing so.
