iCloud Sync/Transfer Apps between iPad/iPhone devices
You might have lots of purchased apps on your iPhone and want to transfer them to your iPad. With the iCloud, it is easy to aync and transfer apps between iOS devices over WiFi or 3G network.

Cannot join WiFi network after updated to iOS 6

Cannot join WiFi network after updated to iOS 6
After updated my iPad 2 from 5.1.1 to iOS 6 over the air, I am experiencing Wi-Fi problems. When I try to connect to my home WiFi, the tablet keeps saying "Unable to join the network". But my wife's iPhone 4s on iOS 5 still works fine. My Netgear WGT624 router has the latest firmware. It seems that the router can't process the authorisation and refuses the device to connect.

How to fix WiFi network issues with iOS 6
* Go to Setting > WiFi, turn your WiFi OFF and then ON again.
* Tap Setting > Wi-Fi, select the Blue button next to the connecting network, and set HTTP Proxy to Auto.
* If not working, restore your device via iTunes.

Hope Apple will release a update to correct this issue.

LTE personal hotspot greyed out on new iPad 3

LTE personal hotspot greyed out on new iPad 3
I have bought new iPad 3 with iOS 5.1 from apple online store. After activated the LTE plan, the "Personal Hotspot" feature was available and everything worked well for a month. Today I note that I could not choose Personal Hotspot option which is greyed out in settings.

How to fix the network issues
* On your tablet, go to Setting > General > network, turn "Personal Hotspot" off and then ON. That should make it available again.
* If it is still not working, go to turn Airplane Mode on and off.

Enable iOS 6 Wi-Fi Plus Cellular to keep apps syncing

Enable iOS 6 Wi-Fi Plus Cellular to keep apps syncing
When I connect to a WiFi hotspot from your iPad 3G and then the Wi-Fi connection gets issues or chokes, some of the apps will stop syncing your important datas. In the latest beta of iOS 6, iPad or iPhone can automatically detect these issues and toggle it back to use cellular data without any interruption.

How to Enable iOS 6 Wi-Fi Plus Cellular
* From Home screen, tap on Setting > General > Cellular systems.
* Turn "Wi-Fi Plus Cellular" ON to allow apps having trouble with WiFi to use 3G.
* Under the "Use Cellular Data for" option, select which apps to have the feature, including iCloud Documents, iTunes, FaceTime, Passbook Updates and Reading List. For example, turning "iCloud Documents" on could help you keep syncing over Cellular until you have cleared up the WiFi network issues.
