Can I use my 3G for internet tethering

I have an iphone 3G with web bolt on. Can I use it for internet tethering as when I go into settings ther seems no way of turning the tethering on?

No, your 3G web bolt on is different to a tethering bolt on. You need to call your network provider and they normally will let you try tethering for a limited period of time before they charge you. I found it quite slow and unreliable, not worth the money. Youre better off getting your network to send you an internet dongle instead.

Can I use my ipad3 for internet access in Italy? If so, how?

Going to Italy next month and am hoping to use my ipad3 in Italy. I'm sure I can use the non-internet dependent features, but how might I use the internet (for email and Skype).

You can get a local sim card and data plan. Or, you can connect using wifi the same way you do at home.

Having trouble with connecting my iphone and macbook air using bluetooth for internet tethering

Hi,
I am facing an issue connecting my iPhone5 to my Macbook Air using bluetooth primarily for internet tethering - personal hotspot.
Every time I try to pair my iPhone with the Macbook Air, I get the error on the iPhone that 'the device that I am trying to connect is not supported'.
Can anyone provide assistance to me on resolving this issue.
Thankyou,
Ashwani

You can't resolve it using bluetooth because it is not a feature you can use here are the supported files for bluetooth http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
YOu will have to contact your carrier and enable personal hotspot as suggested by questionaire.

Is there a way to transfer the iTunes application to my PC using my iPhone? My PC has no means of connecting to the Internet and I do not wish to pay for Internet tethering for a one time use.

Is there a way to transfer the iTunes application to my PC using my iPhone? My PC has no means of connecting to the Internet and I do not wish to pay for Internet tethering for a one time use. I don't have the app on my computer and I simply wish to have it on there to actually be able to transfer my files.

You can transfer the app to your PC to save it, the article below will show you how:

Can i use the iPhone's internet for free in sapin or anywhere in europe

hi im thinking of getting an iPhone 3g for christmas for the internet lol because its the best at the mo.
i live in the uk and i know O2 offers free net within the uk, but i go to spain 2 times every year and i was wondering if the internet is free to use out there or will i have to pay for it :s
if so how much more
thanks

you will most likely have to pay for it, and pay A LOT. data roaming is very expensive. unless O2 has a network which you can use in Spain. not very familiar. but in most cases, yes, you will have to pay. i would call O2 and see how its handled, they would have the official say and how much it would be.
and as Tamara stated, you can always use wi-fi for free, at hotspots that provide it.

When I use my IPhone 4S to view the Shaw Go Movie Central App when I am at home I only use WiFi which is automatic, I start watching a show and sometimes I will get a message like "you can not use your cellular for video playback" or something close to that. Then I received an email from Telus saying I had used my 3G instead of Wi-Fi using 75% of my data. How can this happen when I'm on Wi-Fi at home? If it switched to 3G for some reason I should have been disconnected and not just transferred to 3G network using up my data. What is the fix for this??

It doesn't have to be that complicated, Verizon iPhones come unlocked, just tell VZ you're going on Holiday/Traveling and suspend the service, no need to pay for service if you're not going to be using it. Pick up local SIM cards in the countries of your choosing, pop them in, re-activate iMessage and you're set!
I recommend getting a SIM card from the Three network in England, they have great EU roaming rates and free like-home roaming in Italy.
Set your phone's region to match the country you're in, it'll save from some headaches when calling local/international numbers.
To answer your questions,
1. If you choose not to have a local SIM card, it is good to keep your phone in Airplane mode to save battery.
2. Make sure the two iPhones have different names to reduce sync/restore issues.
3. If husband has an iPhone also, you can chat with iMessage/Facetime, just give him heads up about the new number you'll have. Otherwise, use Whatsapp if he's got an Android. You can activate Whatsapp with your American number or the international number if you choose to get a SIM in Europe.
Also, Get the MagicJack app and/or Google Hangouts, both of those apps provide you with free calling to the USA and Canada using any internet connection. Google Voice is another good way to SMS across the seas.
Let me know if you need any more tips for iPhoning across the pond.

I can't use wi-fi and internet, why?

I was given a phone BlackBarry 9780. But I can't use wi-fi and internet (I have them turned on, but it's useless).
Could anybody explain me why is this situation?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
There are a lot of possible reasons, but from your brief description, all I can do is give you a long list of all that I can think of, and you'll have to determine which applies.
On some BB OS levels, there is no ability to use WiFi and the native Browser unless you have a proper data plan in place from your mobile service provider to enable those services.
KB23393 How to check the model number and version of the operating system on a BlackBerry smartphone
Since the BB was used, it may not have been properly cleansed...refer:
KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after buying a previously owned BlackBerry smartphone
Even if it was partially cleansed, but was previously associated with BES, there could be a latent IT Policy blocking this usage:
KB30076 How to check for an IT Policy on a BlackBerry smartphone
Depending still on your OS level, you may have to enable the "hotspot" browser within the native BB Browser settings:
KB29087 Unable to browse the Internet over a Wi-Fi connection on the BlackBerry smartphone
KB23699 Simplified browser selection in BlackBerry 6 and BlackBerry 7
You may need to investigate obtaining and installing an alternate browser -- e.g., Opera, which can function via WiFi totally independent of BB-proprietary requirements.
Of course, I also can't tell exactly what you mean by "can't use wi-fi"...can you not even connect to any WiFi networks at all? If so, what exactly do you do (step by step please) and what exactly happens?
Good luck and let us know!

Adding apn for Internet tethering, cannot save the data

Hi I'm trying to use my ipad4 with wifi and cellular as a wireless modem, laptop runs a late version of Xp. It will recognise the wireless connection, but with limited connectivity. Do I need to add the apn for Internet tethering or not? I know what it should be for my net work provider, but I cannot seem to be able to save the data in the settings section. As soon as I navigate away from the page the data inputted is lost.

Do you have Excel installed on the other computer?
I also suggest that you read this page : Including Report Generation VIs in Stand-Alone Applications (Report Generation Toolkit)
Hope this helps

Can I use airplay(reflector) without internet connection ?

I don't see why you couldn't use AirPlay as a stand alone thing. Obviously you'll need wifi, but as for Internet I really don't know. Again, Internet shouldn't have any say but it might.
Test it out, unplug the cable to your modem. If it's a modem/wifi router then unplug the DSL cable or cable internet cable.

It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

Can I use touch ID for App Store without using a passcode?

It seems that the ony way I can use the touch ID for App Store and iTunes is if I have a passcode to get into my phone. I don't want a passcode, it get in and out of my phone too often to have to unlock it all the time and I hate manually typing in my password for App I buy. Why can't it do both, isn't the touch ID just as secure for purchases even if you don't have to unlock the phone to get to it??

From the article:
You can set up Touch ID in iOS Setup Assistant or by tapping Settings > Touch ID & Passcode. To set up Touch ID, you must first set a passcode. Touch ID is designed to minimize the input of your passcode, but you need a passcode for additional security validation, such as enrolling new fingerprints.
So yes, that's how it's designed. You must have a passcode, though as long as you understand the caveats:
In addition, you will need to enter your passcode to unlock your iPhone in these conditions:
After restarting your iPhone 5s
When more than 48 hours have elapsed from the last time you unlocked your iPhone 5s
To enter the Touch ID & Passcode setting
and
You can't use Touch ID for purchases if Require Password in Settings > General > Restrictions is set to Immediately.
you should be able to use Touch ID without needing your passcode. If none of those circumstances is true and you're still being asked for your passcode to make a purchase from the iTunes Store, it would seem that something is amiss with your iPhone.

HT3354 how can i use one table for reference to another

how can i use a table for a referance to another eg when i type a word in a cell, i will like it to match the word with another table then return the information in the cell i am using

you can use vlookup() (or any of the lookup family of functions) to locate an item based on a key value:
Here is an example of something you can do with two tables:
The table on the right is title "Data" and stores a list of names with age and favorite color.
The table on the left uses the value in the first column to lookup up information in the table Data
in the table on the left:
B2=IFERROR(A2&" is " & VLOOKUP(A2, Data :: A:D, 2, 0)&" years old and likes the color "& VLOOKUP(A2, Data :: A:D, 3, 0), "NOT FOUND")
I know this look complicated. so I'll break it up into smalled pieces:
first the "&" is called the concatenate operator and joins two strings. like this:
a string is a set of characters between double quotes.
so "string 1" & "string 2" becomes "string 1string2" or "Sam " & "Jones" becomes "Sam Jones"
you can use cell references instead of strings directly in which case the concatenation is performed on the contents of the cells.
so if cell A1 contains "Hi " and the cell A2 contains "There" then A1 & A2 will result in "Hi There"
so you could add the formula
A3=A1 & A2
this is short hand for select cell A3 then type everything including the A3 so that A3 contains "=A1 & A2" (omit the double quote)
OK. So the formula I provided concatenates several items together:
it concatenates A2, then the string " is " then a formula, then the string " years old and likes the color " then a formula
the two formulas (highlighted in blue) perform a lookup of the value in cell A2 in columns A thru D of the table named "Data". If if finds the value in cell A2 in the first column of the lookup range in the table Data (column A) then it returns the value from the same row but in the second or third column.
all that is in a function calld iserror() to trap the condition where the calue you enter in A2 does not exist in the table Data:
