I've been able to 'create network' and jin it on my iPhone and iPad. Now, I cannot connect either. It shows the wifi 'fan' as if it is connected, but it won't let me connect.And under network preferences, it says: "Wi-Fi has the self assigned IP Address xxxxxxxxx and will not be able to connect to the Internet."
View 2 RepliesTitle says it all, bought a 64gig iPad wifi today...little did i know tons of users are having wifi problems...my problem doesnt seem to fit the others though. Most of what i've read people can connect for a bit,
and after being in sleep mode then it has problems. I can't even connect to my home network. Works fine with my ipod Touch, laptop, etc. I dont have any form of security set up on my router what so ever. I plan on buying a new router soon (for reasons other than this iPad crap.)
I'd really like to see some kind of resolution to this problem before i need to do that though.I tried all that i could out of the trouble shooting stuff. nothing worked. I even tried setting up a static IP for it. What else can be done? i really dont want to have to return it since its such a nice piece of tech.

I don't know the proper lingo, being network illiterate, but I'm at at retreat where there is an ultra secure wireless signal set up where you can't just get the signal and enter the password, the host has to actually go in and manually add individual computer ID info in order to allow access --
for my macBook it was a number we got in the Network panel, under Ethernet # or something like that?THere doesn't seem to be an equivalent for the iPad that I can find. Sorry for the vagueness, but can anyone point me in a likely direction?

I have an IMAC, OS 10.5.8, Intel Dual Core, 2.93, 4 GB RAM, 650 GB HD. I'm having trouble setting up a local network so that my wife can use her new Ipad. I have gone through the user guide of both and looked through the discussions; I'm a novice. Can the Ipad use WIFI to access the my IMAC through AirPort; I'm using Qwest DSL that isn't WIFI capable, see I told you I was a novice.

Traveling in Israel so I purchased the 3G for a month as well as an international plan for the month as well. How do I get onto the network? Does the Imac automatically find the network or do I need to take another step? ipad

View 22 RepliesIn the lobby of a motel with wi-fi network. The instructions was that upon initial connection the network would ask for a code which was to be entered. I went to setting, selected wi-fi and the name of the network it found. The Ipad brought up a new page containing a sign-in form.
When I selected the entry block to start the typing of the code the keyboard came up but then the key board went away before I could enter a letter. I tried it several times.Getting faster I was able to enter 4 of the letters. But the numbers were impossible because it took two actions on the keyboard to get a number.

View 6 RepliesI have a Time Capsule set up with a Guest Network. Two of my visiting siblings both have iPads (one with v3.2 and one with v3.2.1) and neither of them can connect to my Guest Network.
I tried changing the security type for the Guest Network and even turning it off altogether, so no password would be required, but neither iPad would connect. The Guest Network itself appears to work fine, as my wife's MacBook connected to it no problem.
As a temporary solution, I added my sister's iPad's MAC address to my access control list and let her join my primary network, but I'd really like to figure out why the iPads are being excluded from the Guest Network

This may belong in the App section not sure...
However, I was wondering if there was a way I could access the built-in camera on my iMac at home using my iPad 2 at a remote location? I know there Facetime but that requires a party to be located on each end. I want to be able to access the camera on the iMac at home when no one is there.
Why can't I connect my iPad2 to my iMac via Bluetooth? They seem to find earth other, but when I try to connect from the iPad I get a message saying the iMac does not support this!
View 1 RepliesI have a Three USB modem in the UK (mobile broadband zte mf112) which gives a good internet connection to my MacBook Air when I'm out and about. I thought it would be a simple matter to share this from my MBA to my Ipad (using internet sharing), but I just cannot make it work.
I can get the Ipad to connect to a wireless network set up by the MBA, but it doesn't connect to the internet saying the server isn't responding , or the Ipad isn't connected to the internet. If anyone has got this to work, i'd be grateful for some help..
