wifi doesn't work with IOS 7

Hey buddy why dont you shut your smart mouth.

Sorry I expected apple to make a quality product that does not **** the bed in 1 year 2 months.

Not to mention I said it before and I will say it again.

My phone did not break, I did not break my phone, Apple broke my phone..

There update broke my phone..

Phone was 100% fine and I even download IOS 7 via WIFI. After that wifi was dead.

Total BS if you think I will believe my phone just happen to break as I was updating.

I did learn a lesson to have apple care.. This was my 1st smart phone.. in the bast my cheap dumb phones lasted forever.. and I beat the crap out of those. Never thought my expensive iphone would just die when my free LG worked for years while being dropped many times.

I agree,

The new update murdered my phone. It forced me to restore the phone for no good reason. I have no clue why the phone crashed to begine with. I downloaded IOS 7 last week and was fine. All of a sudden I get a 2nd upgrade and the phone went dead. Totally ******....

I'd like to provide some more feedback on this issue. First I have an ipad 2 wifi only (no cell service). It's barely 3 months old, bought brand new. I had zero problems with it, and loved it. Being my first apple product ( besides an ancient iPod). Was seriously considering getting an iPhone (current windows phone user). Then this update happened. I am not a fan of the new icons, like many others have issues with wallpaper size, battery life, apps closing randomly and most importantly, this wifi issue.

What's the point of an ipad with wifi only, if the wifi doesn't work?

I tried ALL the suggestions above. ( my fave being the one that says turn on airplane mode, turn off find my ipad, restart . Too bad you can't turn off find my ipad unless YOU ARE CONNECTED TO WIFI- although this led to my potential fix)

Anyway, I am not a quitter and determined to make this work without waiting in the 3 hour line at the apple store.

So I finally connected to wifi long enough to turn off the find my ipad service. Since doing this I have been connected to wifi 99% of the time. A big improvement from before. Now I work from home so the find my ipad option isn't super important to me, but I do travel and would want it on.

Not to mention I didn't pay for a product to have "some" of its features not work.

I suggest trying to turn off the find my___ option and see what happens. Not that this is an acceptable fix, but hopefully a short term one. Good luck

You seem to be playing Apple's representative here - towing the company line ...

By Apple expecting people to pay for warranties and not proudly giving them at their own cost, they are really recognising the poor quality that they represent - if they believed that they were selling phones to last then Apple giving 2 or 3 year warranties would be easy for them - but they don't - their imperfections are the customers risk ...

And please don't confuse insurance with warranties - no problems in insuring for my mistakes and misfortunes, but this is Apple selling dud phones and expecting the customer to pay ...

And I don't believe that Apple doesn't monitor these forums - how could it be so stupid not to? Company policy to say so, because then it doesn't have to reply, but you think that the company is so stupid as to ignore this?

I'm thinking this issue goes beyone Wifi. In trying to get my phone to turn on wifi and all the tricks, I've discovered other issues. If I turn go into airplane mode and turn off, it doesn't stay off. If I turn off location services and turn phone off, the relocation services come back on. If I turn off "find my iphone" and turn my phone off, again when i turn my phone on, it's on. This has got to be a software issues.

Hey apple! You are disappointing us! Where are you?? Don't you care about your customers, after Steve?

I know nothing about you however it would appear you may be some type of moderator on this Support Community. Nothing you say is helpful to the posters. You seem to enjoy chastising and belittling people when all they want to do is seek help. I have took your advice and submitted the below comments directly to http://www.apple.com/feedback/

however it would appear Apple are unable to reply personally to the customer. Sums it all up for me. I hope more posters here use the link to direct thier complaints directly to apple. This is what I posted

Dear Apple,

My wife and I have been loyal apple customers for many years now. since the advent of the iPhone3 in 2008 we have always used your products. I also currently have the MacBook Pro.

When I updated my iPhone 4S to your IOS7 everything seemed fine for a few days, then completely out of the blue WIFI and Bluetooth stopped working. I searched the web for fixes but to no avail.

I then booked a genius bar appointment for 1810hrs on Thursday 26th (Yesterday) at Glasgow's Buchanan Street Store, hoping that a genius would have advice on how to fix my problem. My phone then was only just over a year old after obtaining the replacement at the same store on 31/07/2012.

Up until this IOS7 upgrade, my phone has worked perfectly, it was well looked after and was always kept within a case to ensure it would remain damage free.

When I explained my problem the genius told me my phone most probably had an underlying fault which had manifested itself after the IOS7 upgrade. It was explained to me that the upgrade to IOS7 is undertaken at the customers own risk. I appreciate that however after reading the support communities forums it is clear to me that hundreds or probably thousands of customers are experiencing the same problem and I argue that Apple should be doing more to help their loyal customers.

After pleading with the genius to help sort my iPhone 4S i was told the only option available to me was to pay £139 for a replacement with a mere 90 day warranty. As I have invested hundreds of pounds in these phones, music and Apps I had no alternative but to pay the money for a replacement phone. I feel that I have been completely duped and conned by Apple.

I am very angry that YOUR IOS7 upgrade has broken my phone. This was not my fault. Nothing i could have done would have prevented this problem I wish I was in a position to seek legal advice in order to sue Apple for the loss of £139 however I do not feel that I have the ability or the funds to do this.

As a result of the above I would like you to know that both my wife and I will never purchase another Apple product, this is the last. I have lost all respect for your company as you seem to have lost all respect for your customers. I implore you to read your Apple customer Support forums to see how angry your customers are.

😠

My iphone 5 began to access the home WiFi network after rebooting the router. Had all the same connection issues after uploading IOS 7. Tired several of the folk-programming ideas, non-of which worked for over a few minnutes. Now have IOS 7.02 and wifi has been on line using several WIFI spots for 5+ days now.

Like it or not, moderators do not present themselves on these forums. Anybody responding to poster's problems are just users trying to help. As such, we do not mind if you never purchase another Apple product again. Do whatever you feel you need to do. Apple do NOT respond directly to posts here, and nobody here can be criticised for however you perceive the actions of Apple staff. All your references to "your" company and "your" customers are totally misdirected.

I didn't update to IOS7 yet but as of last night both my iphone 5 and ipad 2 quit connecting to my home wifi. I have reset my wifi and even reset my whole ipad back to factory. It won't accept my password to access the secured wifi and password has not been changed. Since both my non apple computers are connecting it doesn't appear to be a router issue? The only update I did was icloud yesterday. Could that be an issue?

Yes, it is. Do you not work for Apple then? Good grief, neither do we!
