Won't accept my Wi Fi password on IPad mini

Got a new I Pad Mini and have had no problems getting my I Phone 4s or other devices to recognize router password but get an error dismiss on my I pad mini screen even though my wi fi shows on wi fi's available - what is the problem?  I have shut down the I pad and turned back on and still continue to get the same message dismiss.  What do I do next?

If you are absolutely sure that you are entering the password correctly, try resetting Network Settings on the iPad, reboot the iPad and then try to join the network again.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Email send/receive suddenly doesn't work ; can't change email settings as BB phone won't accept valid username and password -- what to do?

    email send/receive suddenly doesn't work (as of September 24th); I can't change email settings (one suggestion from tech) as BB phone won't accept *valid* username and password -- what to do?
    I understand from a support note that if I keep trying my password/username combination, my BB will eventually delete all data!
    I can't understand this. I'm completely lost now. I can't remember what I've done or tried to do. A plethora of usernames and passwords is swimming in my head.
    Thanks for any hints. I have always loved this BB Bold and have never had any trouble with it.

    But the real question is why for the past year did the passwords work and then all of the sudden after this anomaly the disk password doesn't work?  I'm not 100% sure of what my configuration was, but I know that most of the time it required one password -- supervisor, and occasionally it asked for 2 -- disk password as well I believe.  This may have been related to the Password on Restart setting I think -- asking for the disk password on cold vs. warm boot.  But I know both were exactly the same.  But after this incident only the Supervisor password worked.

  • I can't log in to my computer. It won't accept any names and passwords from any accounts.

    This is my work computer, and it started 3 days ago. It won't accept the name and password of any account in the office, except for the localadmin log in. That works just fine. I have tried all the basic troubleshooting like restarting, unplugging the computer, unplugging the network cable. Doesn't help. The login screen shakes like I typed in the wrong password.
    It is connect to a network with other macs and PCs. We use Windows Small Business Server 2003, I don't know if that has anything to do with the issue.
    Today the problem also started affecting a Mac Book Pro, which is also connected to the network.
    Is there an update we are missing? What's going on?

    Are you authenticating to an Active Directory server? If so, that's where the problem is.

  • My IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    my IPAD won't accept my wi-fi password. I have tried resetting all settings and network settings but still won't accept it. Can't download to new version of IOS either, says software update server could not be contacted.

    Yes I have put in the correct password, its all numbers so can't get it wrong really.
    It has connected before as has my iPod and that won't connect either. I have checked that they aren't on the blocked list of the wi fi. Managed to download the new version of iOS and that hasn't made a difference.
    I have the wi fi plugged directly into the computer rather than the booster hub as the computer won't connect to it when its in the hub. I did get the iPad to connect to the internet when it twas in the hub but once I upgraded the iOS it won't accept the wifi password in the hub either.

  • HT203427 I downloaded an app but it won't accept my username or password.

    I downloaded a free app but it won't accept my username or password so I can use the app.  Any suggestions?

    Actually the iTunes app on a Mac is divided up into a number of separate apps on an iOS device. Music and videos are from the iTunes app. Apps and games are from the App Store app. Books are from the iBooks app. Magazines are from the Newsstand app. Podcasts are from the Podcast app. Etc.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Cannot log in to Mozilla Support. It won't accept my username or password. Reset password email says my account is already activated.

    Tried accessing Mozilla Support Forums for Firefox Desktop Support, which I have used many times. It would not accept my username and password, claiming they were incorrect. I tried the Password Reset feature, which opened a window saying that accounts created before December 2010 may have issues logging in. Please reset your password below. It instructs me to enter my email address so that it can send me instructions for setting a new password. I enter my email address. It says we've sent an email to any account using this address. Please follow the link in the email to reset your password. I go to my email. Nothing is there. I wait, but still nothing.
    I go back to the sign in page, and click on the link - I didn't get a confirmation email - under Login Problems. A new window opens which tells me that to activate my account I must first confirm my email address. I reenter my email address. I get an email from Mozilla right away, telling me that my account is already activated, and it gives me a link to log in. I click on that link. I enter my username and password again. Same error message denying me access and telling me to enter a correct username and password. I try this a couple more times with no success. Same repeating errors.
    So I try to create a NEW account using a different username with my email address. It will not let me do that. It says that email address is already taken, and it will not allow me to proceed. I ultimately had to set up a new account with an email address that I never use, just so I could access the Help features. I am exasperated. I do not want to post my Questions using an email address that I do not use, and have to open another application to even access. I want to be able to receive a message from Mozilla in my normal everyday email address, if someone has replied to my post. But since Mozilla will not let me use my existing email address for the new account I set up, I cannot do that.
    This is very frustrating. Mozilla will not allow me access to my original user account that was already set up with my preferred email address. And Mozilla won't let me create a new user account with my preferred email address. Now I am stuck with a new user account that is linked to an email address that I never use and which is not easily accessible to me. As a last resort, I access my new user account in hopes that it will allow me to change the email address that is linked to the account, but of course, that is not an option.
    Can someone please help me to access my original account with my original username and password? If a password reset is necessary, then I should not be getting a reply email telling me my account is already activated (see below). If it is activated, then why can't I log in? What is going on? Please help me. Thank you.
    It seems your account has already been activated.
    You can log in at:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/login
    Thanks!
    The support.mozilla.org team}

    I use only support.mozilla.org and never used any other websites. However, the same problem here. My ID and Password are not accepted. Had to create a new account with a temporary email to use Support - it would not allow me to use my main email, because "it is used by another account". Try to reset password - receive no email (even though there is a confirmation on the website that email to reset password has been sent). At the same time can easily receive a confirmation about User ID and account activation. Thus, the account is completely locked, and I can not use my email address for a new one. Please fix this problem.

  • It won't accept my Apple ID password to update or install new apps?

    I can log in to Apple ID on the website successfully but my iPad won't accept the password to download or update apps.

    When you select update, verify that it is showing your correct Apple ID, perhaps you have an app that was downloaded with a different ID, all apps are always associated with the ID that first downloaded them.

  • Netflix won't accept my ID and password?

    I have just added the Apple TV to my TV.  When I tried to sign in to Netflix using the ID and password that I use on my entire collection of devises, iPhone, iPad, iBook, iMac 27", iMac 20" will all connect to Netflix, but Netflix won't accept my  Apple TV.  No error codes, just won't recognise the same ID & PW!!
    This really ticls me off!!

    After 2 calls to NetFlix with no solutios and 1 call to Apple with a solution which fixed the login and password with Netflix completely.  Apple very carefully guided me through resetting the WiFi channels to correct potential interference with other neigborhood WiFis.
    This fix is very specific to ones neigborhood.  The thing I learned that most should know about is the power of the System Information under About This Mac.  Once in the System Information, go down the list to Wi-Fi and click it.  It may take a few seconds, but your Mac see all your neigboring Wi-Fis, even the very weak signals and reports the Signal / Noise (S/N) of each. I was flabergased by this encreadible list of 14 WiFis close by. 
    Apple had me read the Channel of these and the S/N and then had me change the channel of my 2 WiFi Networks on my Airport Extreme. This worked!

  • ICloud won't setup properly on my iPhone 6, iPad Mini or iMac

    Hi everyone,
    I've had an iMac and iPad for a while now and wasn't keen on setting up iCloud but this changed with my first iPhone which I got a few days ago.
    I opted to activate iCloud during the setup process thinking it'd be just as easy to do as everything else was.
    FYI: right now all my devices have their latest iOS/OSX versions...
    iPhone 6 - iOS 8.1.2 (12B440):
    - Everything seemed fine until I looked at Settings > iCloud
    - I'm continually asked to log in. Even after logging in successfully, the login prompt will show up again later (and repeatedly)
    - iCloud Drive is "upgrading" and won't stop. It has been like this for at least 2 days now and Apple's servers have been fine when I've checked
    - I'm unable to log out/remove/delete/change the iCloud account that's on my phone. The "Sign Out" button is greyed out and cannot be selected
    - I've tried turning flight mode on/off (didn't work)
    - Restarting the phone (nope)
    - Multiple soft resets (nudda)
    - A hard reset is a last resort if possible
    iPad Mini - iOS 8.1.2 (12B440):
    - I'm continually asked to log in like with my phone
    - iCloud Drive isn't shown like it is on my phone
    iMac (late 2009) - OSX Yosemite 10.10.1:
    - Error: "You can't sign in at this time. Try signing in again"
    iCloud.com:
    - Error: "Set up iCloud on a device to use iCloud.com. Your Apple ID must be used to set up iCloud on an iOS or OS X device before you can use iCloud.com"
    My Apple ID works in iTunes, the App Store, and probably everything else except iCloud.
    Also, it's not possible for me to visit an official Apple store or service centre as they're literally hundreds of miles away from where I live.
    Anyway, I have no idea what to do and would really appreciate any help. Thanks

    Thanks for replying. I think it's just one problem affecting everything else. To me, it seems like the setup and/or upgrade process for iCloud is stuck and I'm unable to activate it anywhere else (iPad, iMac, iCloud.com, etc.)
    I know the Apple ID I used. I only have one and used that when setting up my iPhone...
    My Apple ID works in iTunes, the App Store, and probably everything else except iCloud.
    The "Sign Out" button is greyed out and cannot be selected
    So, signing out isn't possible from what I can tell.
    So, I dunno

  • Forgot restriction password on iPad mini

    Unfortunately I have forgot the restriction password on my kind's iPad mini. I have found discussions explaining that I need to reset the device to default factory to solve the issue and reset the pwd.
    My kinds have photo and games. I would like to know if the following series might work to recover apps and photos:
    1) backup all contents on iCloud
    2) reset the device to default factory
    3) restore the backup via iCloud
    Will it work? Or will action 3) recover the old forgotten pwd?
    Is there a way to reset the device (including the restriction pwd) and THEN restore photos and apps?
    Thanks! Giusec

    Restoring from the backup that was made while the Restriction Code was in place will restore the Restriction Code.
    You'll have to copy all data and files to your computer or iCloud, then restore, then copy all files and data back after you copy back all the apps.
