WiFi won't connect on iPhone but does on all other devices

So my wifi was working fine and 2 days ago it started to just not connect to my phone anymore.
It works on all my other devices but my iPhone.
I tried to reset my network settings, forgot the network and typed in the password again, nothing works.
Any ideas how I can fix this?

My iMac won't connect to the wifi it has been connecting to for a year. All other devices still work. Any suggestions?

IiMac won't connect to the wifi anymore. All other devices still work with wifi any suggestions?

Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

I can't connect to the itunes store from my iMac...But can from all other devices?? Any ideas?

When trying to connect to the itunes store from my imac it says unable to connect to the itunes store at this time...please try again later. Has been for 2 days now. I'm able to connect from all other devices, just not our imac. Any suggestions??

Hi there Kevdog,
I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

TS1398 I am begun to experience problems with my wi-fi connection on my home router. All other devices in the house work fine - but my iPhone 3GS seems to connect to the route OK, then loses the connection, I have tried re-boot/network settings etc - no

As per my headline comment, the wi-fi connection (which before IO6) worked fine now problematic, and iPhone in serious danger of flying out of the window..is there an option to get previous IOS back on the phone? I have tried the various "solutions" indicated in the chat forum but nothing helps..any ideas before I lose what little hair I have left?

If, as you suggest, you have iOS 6.0.2 installed in your 3GS, you shouldn't have. That OS is only for the iPhone 5 and Mini iPad.
Try rebooting the router. Any other devices working happily on it are irrelevent.

My Car charger wont charge iphone 5s but it charges all other devices and phones.

My charger chages my htc sensation xe and other accesories like bluetooth speaker. but it wont charge my iphone 5s. I'm using the orignal iphone lightning cable. i use the same cable on the wall charger and it chages.
The power ratings of the car charger are are 5v and 1 amp. it has 2 usb ports i have tried both.
anyone know what should i do?

What other devices connect? If not an iPhone, iPad or another iPot Touch then try here:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Otherwise, I wouldplace the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. However, this will erase the iPod and make it unusable unless you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

SQLPLUS connects with sysdba but prompts for all others.

Greetings,
If I launch sqlplus as sysdba {i.e. sqlplus / as sysdba } It connects immediately.
If I attempt to launch using another user (i.e. sqlplus scott/tiger } I get an error message (ORA-01017 invalid username password)
After that it prompts me for a username and then a password and then it launches sqlplus. Now I'm connected.
How do I change this so that I connect with all other users as "sqlplus username/password" ?
Thanks in advance,
Brian

Connecting with / as sysdba works only directly on the server.
If you connect as another user you usually need to add the database instance name or the service name from your tnsnames.ora file to the connect string.
sqlplus username/password@databaseYou can set the database instance on your machine (server or sometimes pc) so that it is added automagically. but this depends on your OS and other environment settings. You might want to check out the administration guide or the general forum for more detailed answers.

Internet terrible on rMBP but fine on all other devices.

This may be long but only because I want you guys to understand exactly what my situation is.
I have 7 devices at home that use WiFi:
2x iPod Touch 5th Gens
1x iPod Touch 4th Gen
1x iPad 2
1x HP laptop from 2007
1x 15in rMBP
1x 13in rMBP
EVERY device works perfectly fine other than those two rMBP's, they load web pages instantly, flash player works like a charm (on the HP laptop, since iOS doesn't do flash) and I have no complaints.
These two Macbook Pros however decide to be pissy little laptops, they don't load web pages fully, refuse to play any flash other than on YouTube which means websites like Hulu are dead to me and they sometimes refuse to load websites at all.
All this and they always seem to be at 4 bars on the WiFi icon at the top. Before you guys call out the hardware, keep in mind that the 15in rMBP went through a motherboard and airport card exchange at the apple store but to no avail. The 13in rMBP was bought only two days ago and has the exact same problems with the EXACT same websites.
I am taking them to the store again but I'm not expecting any miracles as this will be my fourth visit to the apple store for the same problem.
Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Webkit Nightly etc. I've tried them all and they behave the exact same way.
Before you blame the router, I will say again, all the devices on that list other than the rMBP's are flawless over WiFi.

Since you're going back to the Apple Store, test several web sites that you've used at home and see if there is any difference in speed. Then find out what their solutions would be.
As far as videos, I have the Adobe Flash Player (version 11.7.700.169) plug-in installed on my 15" rMBP. Hulu, YouTube and other video sites work great. No lag or decrease in speed. I'm also going through an Airport Extreme Base Station and my rMBP negotiates the connection on the 5GHz band. I don't know if that matters. You can check what band you're on by holding the Option key down and right clicking the WiFi icon in the Menu bar.
Another thought, when was the last time you recycled your DSL/Cable modem and router? It might be worth a shot to shutdown all your devices, unplug the power to the router then the modem. Wait a minute or two, power the modem up; then the router and turn on one of your rMBPs and test.

IPhone 4 / WiFi won't connect to iPhone

I have looked through 6 pages on this forum and not found my unique problem. I can go into my wifi networks, choose the one that I use when available. Once I select it, get out of the settings, the iPhone 4 will only show access to 3G. I have stood next to a friend with their iphone 4 and theirs will show the wifi bars, but mine will only show 3G. I can even walk right up to the wifi router and it will not pick up the signal even though it shows available in my settings and I had selected it. I have restarted the iPhone several times and still cannot pick up a wifi after selecting it within the wifi settings. Yes, of course, I have wifi switched on. This has happened only after upgrading to iOS 4.02. Does anyone have a suggestion? I live in a market without an Apple Store, so I can't go to a Genius Bar.

Left in the dust - please.
Is this your first cell phone? If not, it sure sounds like it.
EVERY cell phone manufacturer releases a new model or models EVERY year. With the manufacturers that don't, you may want to reconsider your choice since any manufacturer that doesn't release a new model or at least refresh an existing model or models on an annual basis or within a 2 year time frame will likely be out of business soon. This is the nature of the cell phone industry and computer industry which is certainly nothing new by a long shot.

My website won't display css properly in firefox but does with ALL other browers

I built my site in asp.net 4.0 - works and displays great in other browsers IE8 IE9 Opera Safari - but doesn't display properly at all in Firefox - I am running the latest version - 6.0 -
I've put way too many hours in to this, and can't figure out why this site looks perfect in IE (which I hate) and yet Firefox can't display it.

My iPod Touch 4G facetime with my specific iPhone 4 only works when I restore from an Apple Store...my PC (XP) iTune Restore will not let my iPod facetime (10 seconds connecting then hangs up)...all other device like my iPads can connect to my iPod...

So, I have an iPhone4 iOS 4.3.2 restored from Apple Store iTunes. I also have an iPod Touch 4G iOS 4.3.2. These two devices can facetime other Apple products, but not each other.
So when I discovered this, I restored both at the Apple Store iTunes and they worked for the first time!! The Genius Bar guys told me to just set my iPod as New Device to my PC then manual sync it. I deleted all my iPod backup from this one since they are all from fresh restore.
I did as directed. iPod does not want to connect facetime to my iPhone. I tried uninstall and reinstall my iTunes to the newest version. Still not working after a full restore. My PC is XP Service Pack 2 with Japanese setting. I wonder if my PC iTunes has to do with anything or my iTunes account...

This is the iPhone forum
That said... PhotoStream is a stream of photos. The contents of the PhotoStream are not part of the backup. PhotoStream will hold the last 30 days of photos on-line. After 30 days, the photos are deleted from the servers. If they have already been downloaded from the cloud and appear on a device, they will remain there. However... if the device is wiped, restored, etc. or PhotoStream on the device is turned off then back on, ONLY the photos still resident in the cloud will download.
If the photos were over 30 days old, they are no longer in the cloud. If you didn't have them backed up elsewhere, they are gone.

Flash drive won't mount on iMac but mounts on all other computers

I have two new PNY 8GB flash drives and both work on a Windows 7 laptop and two different Macbook Pro computers. One Macbook is running 10.6 and the other is running 10.7. Two other flash drives work just fine on the iMac but these PNY sticks do not.
I have restarted the iMac with and without the sticks plugged in.
I have tried all USB ports.
I have tried Disk Utility but I do not see anything on the left.
I have look in /Volumes and I don't see the USB stick.
What am I missing? Why won't it work on the iMac but works on the Macbooks?

My other USB memory sticks, an iPhone, and two iPods work normally plugged into the USB connectors on the iMac. It is just this one brand of USB sticks that don't work on the iMac BUT the same sticks work on two different MacBook Pro computers and even a Windows 7 computer.

FF 29 totally hosed the display of Care2, now just one long line, none of the normal UI appears, but does in all other browsers. Why?

The site now appears as one huge list, instead of the graphical interface that still works in all other browsers. I've had to revert to FF 28 where everything works fine. If there's a way to let me know when this is fixed, that would be nice. Else I'm staying with FF28 - even though it is so Chrome-like now, and I really don't like Chrome. I did miss the addon bar on the bottom with my Forecast Fox and other things handy.

Mac Mini will not send iMessages to anyone but apple users all other devices will

I have a new mac mini and it will not send iMessages to people that do not have apple devices. All my other apple devices will send to people on these devices. The mac mini says that the users are not registered with iMessages. My Macbook Pro has no problem. Any suggestions?

Hello IslandBoy2671,
Is your MacBook Pro sending the SMS messages through your iPhone?
That is the protocol others are probably using.
Messages (Yosemite): Get and send SMS messages
To make and receive SMS and MMS messages on your Mac, you need an iPhone with iOS 8 that’s signed into iMessage with the same Apple ID.
To send an SMS message, enter a contact or a person’s phone number, enter your text, then press Return.
Your SMS and MMS messages appear on your Mac automatically.
Take care,
Nubz

My iPad first gen (iOS5.1.1) won't connect to my home WiFi suddenly. It's worked fine for years but just stopped. All other devices do connect to the WiFi. Now, the iPad does connect to the WiFi at my workplace. Ideas on this?

My iPad (first generation iOS5.1.1.1) quit connecting to my home WiFi recently after years of being able to. All other devices in my home connect fine. I have taken every step I can find to try and remedy things including restoring my iPad to factory settings. Still nothing - when it tries to connect to my network it just spins. I took my iPad to work and it connected to the WiFi there just fine. Came back home, no good. After talking with my local Mac supplier they've suggested that maybe my router is the cause. I've unplugged it several times for lengths of up to an hour but that still isn't getting things working again. Any ideas?

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 droping 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

Imac will only connect to my home wifi via ISP hotspot. All other devices are fine (iphone, ipad etc). its driving me nuts!

My imac (2 yrs old) will not connect to my home wifi with the exception of my ISP hotspot. All other devices are fine (iphone, ipad etc). I have changed my ISP recently and this issue has never happened before. I am with my current ISP for about 7 weeks and this was not an issue for the first 2/3 weeks. Went through the usual set up procedures but alas...nothing. Message states unable to join network! Don't think it is an ISP issue as all other devices work perfect...or is it? As I said It did work at the start, but no longer. I recently moved to NJ from Ireland, so my imac is a European model (don't think that makes a difference?) I can only presume it is the settings on the imac. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thx

Hi - out of action for a few days. To answer your questions:
- and click on Advanced and make sure everything is correct - all in order
- Also check on your router's website to make sure the iMac is recognized there - it IS NOT recognized here as other devices are
- do you by chance have your router set up to do Mac filtering? - i don't know..how do I check?
Thx
