After up grade to ios5.1, my 3GS  can not use personal hot spot (both USB and blue tooth) .

After up grade to ios5.1, my 3GS  can not use personal hot spot (both USB and blue tooth) . Tried reboot, reset network, reset everything, reinstall my xp system on my N B, still does not work. My iPad  used to go to Internet  via iPhone 3GS personal hot spot, now my 3GS can not find my iPod through blue tooth!!!!

Same problems, unfortunatley I updated to 5.0 1 hour before going on holiday for three weeks and no way to restore my phone to try to remove it.At the same time, drop outs, range problems and the most annoying was my music and apps were corrupted and would not function properly :-(

  • IPhone 3GS - Can I use existing US t-mobile SIM and German O2 SIM cards (for phone calls) without buying a data plan?

    I currently use 2 phones to make calls: one t-mobile locked phone for the US and one O2 locked phone for Germany, both without data plan.
    Can I upgrade using just one phone (factory unlocked iPhone 3GS)  and continue to use the existing SIM cards for phone calls (just switching the SIM cards when necessary), but use free WIFI spots worldwide for internet access/data transfer?
    Thanks Michael

    No supported carrier, including T-Mobile in the U.S., permits the use of an iPhone without a data plan. Though it's technically possible to do it, if and when they find you, they will either charge you for a data plan or shut down your account.

  • 3GS can not update software on itunes update server and cannot download purchased APPs

    I have an iphone 3GS and I dont seem to be able to download apps I purchase directly onto it.  I thought I would try to do it through my itunes but it keeps trying to connect to the iphone software update server first which it cant seem to do

    No. Updating software is across all users. About the only time that isn't true is if you installed a piece of software for only one user. But then that piece of software would never be available to the other user if it was made available it would be the updated version.

  • After upgrade to ios5.0.1 i can't use voice calls

    After upgrade to ios5.0.1 i can't use voice calls - people simply do not hear me. Microphone seems to echo sound back instead of sending it over. Ideas?

    Try "resetting" the device...
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Trying to restore after getting a new hard drive.  I can see the backup on the Time Capsule and on the correct date but it is Greyed out.  That is it wont let me open it and restore the machine.  Have tried also Migration Assistant, no luck.

    At startup hold down the Command+Option/Alt+r keys until you see a globe on the screen. Then use disk utility to partition and format the drive HSF+ and then select Reinstall Mac OS X. whatever version of OS X that originally came on your system will be installed and then you can upgrade back to Mavericks.

  • HT4972 how come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube or pinerest app? it keeps giving me a message to use iOS5

    How come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube and pinerest app? i keep getting a message to update to iOS5 if i must use iOS5 how do i update to that one because it just took me 4 hours to figure out how to update to iOS6

    We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work.  We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either.  The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps.  ***** doesn't it.

  • After a download of an update too long, my iPhone is stuck, I can not use it. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes.

    After a download of an update too long, I decided to cancel it and now my iPhone is stuck. I can not use it anymore.My Iphone can start but after that the apple disappears, I have a black background. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes. Whan can I do ??
    Thanks.

    You mean you tried to hack/jailbreak it. ONLY the carrier a phone is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    You've voided your warranty and forfeited your right to support here and from Apple.  Congratulations. You now own an iBrick. Hope it was worth it.

  • TS3694 I tried to update my iphone 3gs from ios 5 to 6 but because of software crash and while restoring with ios 6 it is not activated. Now I degrade it in ios 4 and can not use any app. How can I update this iphone?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
    You'll need to go elsewhere for support.

  • HT201328 Can I unlock an old, unused iPhone 3GS (to be used overseas with a local simcard) and upload on it data from a newer iPhone 4 on the same MacBook Pro?

    Can I unlock an old, unused iPhone 3GS (to be used overseas with a local simcard) and upload on it data from a newer iPhone 4 on the same MacBook Pro?

    I got approval to unlock my 3GS from AT&T and in the process of updating the operating system. I am now using a iPhone 4 on my computer. I just want to know the following:
    When I backup and restore the 3GS in order to unlock it, will it mess up my existing data backed up from my iPhone 4?
    Can I upload data from my newer iPhone 4 onto my 3GS?

    After a great deal of searching I ran across the suggestion to disable all plug-ins and then, one by one, enable them until finally the problem was solved. I am not sure which plug-in was causing the problem, as I am satisfied to have the problem solved. I am going to leave the rest of the plug-in disabled.

  • After the upgrade to ios7.1, I'm unable to use personal hotspot. When I click setup it prompts me to contact my carrier to enable

    After the upgrade to ios7.1, I'm unable to use personal hotspot. When I click setup it prompts me to contact my carrier to enable.
    My gadget is iPhone 4

    Hey Owinoc,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with Personal Hotspot since upgrading to iOS 7.1. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
    Basic troubleshooting
    1. See if your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
    2. Make sure Personal Hotspot is on: Tap Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    3. Check the Internet connection on your iOS device: Tap Safari and load a new webpage.
    4. If one connection type doesn't work, try another. For example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, use USB or Bluetooth.
    5. Turn Personal Hotspot off and on: Tap Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    6. Install the latest version of iOS.
    7. Reset your network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    8. If you still see the issue, restore the iPhone.
    If you're still experiencing issues, try the steps below. […]
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I can not use my bluetooth on my 4S to use SIRI when my phone is locked.I have a JABRA Wave. Is SIRI useable after the phone has automatically locked?

    I recently purchased an iPhone 4S. I also recently purchased a Jabra Wave bluetooth. When my phone is unlocked I can use Bluetooth handsfree to invoke SIRI. After the phone automatically locks I can not use SIRI. I can still receive calls. Is this an issue with Jabra Wave, IOS?

  • After I updated to the new OS I can not access my GMail account????

    After I updated to the new OS I can not access my GMail account???? "The user name or password for GMail is incorrect"???

    Found this answer on another thread. It solved my problem:
    For those having gMail issues.
    Go here on your computer (or phone)
    https://www.google.com/accounts/UnlockCaptcha
    Unlock your account.
    They will block checking if you check too often from a variety of IP's. So jumping from Cell, to Wifi, to Cell, to another Wifi, etc a lot they will block remote checking and only allow web checking until unlocked.
    Can also happen if you have a computer setup to check at a high interval.
