Can I use my iPhone personal hotspot with my PC?

Turn on Personal Hotspot on your iPhone, and then look for your iPhone's name in your computer's Wifi network list and connect to it.
It works essentially the same as a regular wifi network.

  • I can't see my iPhone personal hotspot with macbook pro.

    when you click on settings in your iphone (assuming you have iphone4).
    turn on Personal Hotspot.  stay on that page and see if your macbook see's your iphone now.

    Maybe you are looking to re-purpose this equipment versus getting rid of it if so, the best thing to do is search the internet for tutorials.  And I say this because it's what I would do, there are a lot of tutorials online.    Hope you can find good use for them.  Worse case scenario if you can't find something right now, package them very nicely and when you come across something unbox and enjoy.  I've re-purposed a mac color classic and LOVE IT!!

  • Rogers is saying that IOS4 won't allow use of the personal hotspot with a plan of less than 1GB data.  I say it's a policy of theirs, not an iOS restriction.  Anyone know the truth?

    I call BS but the tech guy was insistent that the iPhone can detect what plan I have and won't enable the feature and there's nothing they can do about it, short of selling me a larger data plan...

    Actually it does.  It's wrong to lie to a customer.  By blaming Apple, they shift the blame and make it seem like there is nothing they can do about it.  If they admitted it was their policy, I could complain and try to get it changed or I could move to another carrier.
    If a person killed someone and blamed it on a heart attack, the person is stil dead, does it matter? Either way they're dead, right...  (extreme, I know, but illustrating a point)
    Wow.
    It is certainly Rogers policy and is not unusual at all among carriers.
    Seems like a non-issue to me, but apparently being "lied to" ( perhaps the employee was simply mistaken, it happens) is a major deal to you.

  • Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    As long as you buy from an Apple retail Store (Apple owned ) an unlocked iPhone 4S it will work on GSM services worldwide
    from Apple.com
    If you buy a SIM-free iPhone, you will need to purchase a GSM-compatible micro-SIM separately. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s from a local GSM carrier.
    The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA carriers such as Verizon Wireless or Sprint.
    However the warranty will NOT be valid outside the US .If you need warranty or post warranty service you will have to return the iPhone to the US in person ( cannot mail in to US )

  • Can I use my iphone 4g microsim with my old iphone 3g interchangably?

    can I use my iphone 4g microsim with my old iphone 3g interchangably using a microsim adapter? PLEASE CONFIRM IF YOU KNOW THANKS

    There is no such thing as an iPhone 4G. The model is iPhone 4 as in 4th generation in the line of iPhones. As for using a SIM adapter or cutting a SIM card to fit in one of Apple's iPhones it would void the warranty with Apple. Apple doesn't support SIM card adapters and especially don't warranty users cutting SIM cards to fit a MicroSIM card slot.

  • Can i use my iphone 4s (MD242ZP) with CDMA mobile operator (R-UIM)?

    can i use my iphone 4s (MD242ZP) with CDMA mobile operator (R-UIM)?
    I know, 4S can work with GSM and CDMA networks....
    Thanks!

    Your phone would need to be unlocked to allow you to do this.  Was the phone originally unlocked and which carrier/phone company was it with?
    You need to contact them to get it unlocked so that you can change carriers.

  • I purchased a iphone i USA. How can i use this iphone in india with vodafone.

    I Purchased a iPhone 5s in USA. How can I use this phone in India with Vodafone.
    <Edited By Host>

    First, the iPhone would need to be unlocked. That would depend on where you bought it. Next, the North American phone would not work with all of the networks outside of the US. Also, the warranty for the device is only good in the US, so if you have a problem with the phone, you would need to bring it back to the US to an Apple Store. Where did you purchase the phone?

  • Can I use my iPhones 3G signal with my iPad?

    Before I bought my ipad2 with wifi, I had an idea I could use it using my 3G signal from my iPhone.  If I can how? I've searched on the help pages with no luck, so maybe it doesn't exist?

  • Can I use my iPhone 3G dock with a Verizon iPhone 4?

    I'm buying a Verizon iPhone 4 and shopping for accessories.  Can I use any of my old iPhone 3G accessories w/ the new iPhone 4?  The 3G dock? The 3G charger? 3G USB cables?

    If your phone is locked to AT&T in the USA, then only AT&T in the USA can unlock it - you will need to contact them about it.
    The requirements for AT&T to unlock it are here - http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB414532&cv=820#fbid=wyYI6i46IlD
    Note that requesting and processing an unlock throught AT&T is the ONLY way to officially and permanently unlock your phone.

  • Can I use an iPhone from Verizon with a canceled contract on another Verizon line?

    My mother recently canceled her with Verizon Wireless because she wanted to be on our family share plan. My older brother decided that he wanted to get his own contract and left the line for her to take. She doesn't like the phone that he had and she has a brand new iphone that she got when she opened her contract. She still had a year to go but decided to pay the early termination fee. She still hasn't payed yet because she is waiting for the bill to make the last payment including the ETF. The service on the phone no longer work and she was wondering if she can connect that phone with that existing line on the family share plan. I also want to know if this has happened to you. I went with her when she went to canceled the contract, the lady that helped us was being so nice to the people before because they just got new phones/contracts. When my mom told her that she wanted to cancel the contract she started being so rude like we were asking her to give us something for free. With the previous customers she was being all smiles but with us she was like whatever. She barely answer some question that my mom had and when she did, she answer with an attitude. She was the same person that helped when my dad, my brothers and me went to get new phone and she was being so nice. I couldn't believe she was being so rude. That was the worst customer service I have in Verizon. Its like they love you when you decide to get into a new contract but the minute you decide to cancel one its like you are beneath or that they could care less about what you want. Has this happened to any of you? Thank for your answer I really appreciate it. 

    AFTER she pays her bill in full, the device should be usable.

  • Can you use a Iphone 3GS charger with an ipad2?

    I don't want to damage my new iPad that I bought over in the US that obviously came with a American charger!

    i've tried various ones but i will have to admit they were 3rd party dock cables.. like energizer and i could never seem to get them to attach to my iphone 4, so i gave up. im pretty sure when the iphone 4 came out they did away with the little tabs on the side that you depress to attach or let go of the cable and i assumed it was these tabs that prevented energizer's brand of dock cable from staying put. ill try again i guess. i've tried like 3 different models and none of them seemed
    to fit and i don't want to force it

  • Can I use UK iPhone in Canada with a Canadian Sim Card

    I have an iPhone 4 that was previously on an O2 contract in the UK. The contract is coming up to expiry and I have contacted O2 and they are now currently in the process of unlocking it. The phone was originally purchased through O2, not throught the Carphone Warehouse or other 3rd party.
    I am moving to Canada in the near future and was wondering if the phone will work with a Candian Sim Card from a Canadian Network provider (e.g. Rodgers)?

    Once it is unlocked, it will work on any GSM carrier in the world.  If it's a supported carrier, no changes will need to be made.
    If it's an unsupported carrier, then it will be up to that carrier to provide the necessary informationn to get the device working (APN's and such information).
