Hotspot has stopped working since downloading Lollipop 5.0

I have a HTC M8 and since down loading Lollipop the Hotspot has stopped functioning, it connects via Wi-Fi to my Samsung note but will not hook up to data transfer, have done 2 factory resets, first one fixed the insane battery usage but no joy with the Hotspot, the APN is ok also and have tried setting up a new one with no success, looking for a solution please

I have the same issue.Updated HTC One M8 to Lollipop and hotspot no longer works correctly.Other devices can connect to the hotspot but there is no internet. I have tested it on numerous devices to rule out a faulty receiving device.Other forums are suggesting that the carrier has not correctly updated their system to lollipop yet so as to enable hotspot or tethering functionality.it worked fine on the previous version of android.Am hoping a future update will resolve this- else an update on the telstra system that may be blocking tethering on lollipop?Can the original poster advise if taking it to the telstra shop/ getting a replacement unit fixed the issue?cheers ps. i have performed three factory resets. twice without restoring from backup and once - the latest with restore. at all times i tested hotspot gave the same result - can connect to it, but no data/internet.a google search shows some others have found this issue as well.

Face time has stopped working since update on iPad and iPhone

My face time has stopped working since both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S did their iOS 6.1 update. They just say that a connection cannot be made, or FaceTime unavailable. Both devices are sitting beside each other, both have excellent wifi. If you try to FaceTime one of the devices, it will ring once and then lose the connection. Apple account details are all fine, FaceTime is switched on, on both. Kind of lost and frustrated now

Hey guys,
So I also noticed a few weeks ago facetime stopped working on my iphone but was still working on my ipad2 and macbook pro.
Phone - iphone 4
os version - 6.1.3
carrier - at&t 14.2
location - usa
I use the same apple id for all devices
I searched online for a fix and/or troubleshooting help. I tried alot of the suggestions on this discussion as well as others but nothing seemed to work. Out of frustration, I finally reached out to apple tech support. I went through the entire trouble shooting steps with an apple technician and was even transferred to a senior advisor for additional help. We tried everything from resetting passwords, resetting icloud accounts, resetting phone settings, checking network settings, resetting date & time, resetting location, making sure push and multitasking functionalities were working properly, etc. We spent a couple hours troubleshooting trying everything but nothing worked. The apple tech said I would have to restore the os and if that didn't work, the only other thing to do would be to send in my phone. But he did stress that I had to restore as a NEW device.
I backed up my phone using iclould and my computer (everything is synced) and restored as a new device. I tested facetime and it worked, however my phone was back to factory position which is not ideal. So I went to itunes and restored my most resent backup. I got all my phone contents back but FaceTime no longer worked. I called the apple senior advisor back and he said I would not be able to restore from a backup because there seemed to be an issue with it that prevented FaceTime from working properly. So I backed up what I could to itunes and iCloud then restored my phone as new. After the restore, it prompted me to install the carrier software update which I did. Then I used itunes to sync my music, apps, contacts, mail, videos, pics, etc. I did this yesterday and facetime has been working properly since then. However certain things I was not able to recover.
So far, these are the things I noticed have been lost with the restore:
- all my settings (everything went back to default/factory)
- voicemail messages greater than 30 days old
- all text and iMessages (but I still have copies of imessage conversations on my iPad and mac)
- data stored within apps (you start fresh like when you first downloaded the app. some apps i have online accounts that sync but most apps the data is lost)
- screen display configurations
- notes that were only on phone and not synced with an email account
Out of all my research, this has been the only thing to get facetime working again. But on the downside, it does take a lot of time to backup, restore, re-sync, and then set up my phone similarly to how I previously had things. The big thing for me was the loss of my apps data. I wish there was a way to restore that. But when all is said and done, I'm glad to have FaceTime back on my phone.
If you are not quite ready to restore, check out this discussion for other suggestions you can try first:

I hope you guys find this useful.

Printing from within iTunes has stopped working since my last iTunes update.

Printing from within iTunes has stopped working since my last iTunes update. Using Toshiba Satellite Pro Windows 7 and HP printer.

That's too bad.
If/when help is truly desired, try providing some specifics of what is occurring, such as any errors that may occur when attempting to print and what specifically is attempting to be printed.

My time capsule has stopped working since installing Yosemite. It says to wait to tell me how much longer but it stays that way for hours.

My time machine has stopped working since I upgraded to Yosemite. It gets to the point that says it will estimate the time remaining, but it never gives me that answer and it just stays on that page and never completes it's backup. This is a brand new macpro, so I wanted to capture the previous info on my computer I was able to put my external hard drive on new computer and it did the migration and all my old info returned. However, two days later I wanted to do a backup using Time Machine with my Western Digital Mac external hard drive but it won't progress past saying how much time remaining, even after several hours of sitting there.

You do need to wait a long time.. as it takes a long while for Yosemite to index the existing backup if it is large.
Here is Apple's List of bad things that happen to TM in Yosemite.
OS X Yosemite: Time Machine problems
It is clearly no where near as comprehensive as it needs to be.
I presume your disk has your old backup.. it may be better to keep the old backup.. save that for the future.. and get a new disk and start a fresh clean backup.
I would also recommend using Carbon Copy Cloner or similar for the time being. Make a bootable clone backup of your drive to a new external drive.. it is really superior in lots of ways to Time Machine. And does show you what it is doing.
For TM at least you can still use the widget so you have some log access to that TM does.

Snapchat has stopped working since the update

Snapchat has stopped working since the update, plus my phonebook still doesn't work after going in setting and clearing the data etc etc or running a repair???

Sorry to hear that you have issues after the update-
Have you tried to uninstall and then install the app again after the update? This may be needed with some apps when you update Android.
Regarding contacts, please continue that discussion in the first thread: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/phonebook-contacts-not-working-since-update/m-p/972365

My home screen button has stopped working since updating to ios7 (iphone4)

My home screen button has stopped working since updating to ios7 (iphone4)
Originally i noticed that it was less responsive but now it does absolutely nothing.
I have cleaned the button and also tried calibrating (opening an apple app, holding the power button and then the home button)
Nothing has helped and I am forced to use assisted touch.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig.

No advice? I suppose I could try sacrificing an android to the apple gods.....

My built in camera has stopped working since Skype...

Since recent Skype updates the camera has stopped working - but it works in other applications. I am running on Windows 7 - do I need to uninstall and load n older version - anyone else suffering these problems?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You didn't state what camera you are using. There have been some issues with Dell XPS models. If that is the case, the problem has not been resolved as of yet. You can try downgrading to an older release to see if the camera works once again.
You have two options to try to resolve this:
1. Try 3rd party software like manycam (manycam.com). See if your camera works in the manycam software. If it does, select the manycam virtual driver in Skype and see if your camera still operates with the latest release. If you go this route be sure to do a custom install to install only the main program.
2. Your other option would be to revert/downgrade to a prior release or a version that exists to address video/camera compatibility issues like the Skype special version:
Skype 6.3
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_6.3.0.105.msi
Skype Special Version (6.1.999.130):
http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-sse
Depending on which versions work may determine if the compatibility issue was introduced in the newest versions or if you camera is not compatible with the new way video is rendered (Skype 6.2 and above).

My music software has stopped working since I installed ios7,what to do?

When i downloaded the ios7 some of my music has stopped working and come up with a red square and a circle around it, I've tried the suggestions but none of them have worked so far any advice??

Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

"itunes has stopped working" after downloading album artwork??

For years I've avoided ipod and itunes like the plague...but about 2 weeks ago I gave in. I got an ipod touch and installed itunes. Everything was fine - until this afternoon when I clicked on find album artwork in itunes. After itunes finished going through the process of finding the artwork ( 1400 of 1600 files found, 1450 of 1600 found, etc...or something like that ), i got the error message that *itunes has stopped working*. I've been searching forums all night and tried uninstalling eveything "apple" and reinstalling. Apparently this error comes up for A LOT of people ( problems like this are why I never wanted an ipod... ). None of the recommended fixes are working. I'm assuming something went wrong during artwork downloading????? Or not? I don't really care why actually, but, if itunes crashes every time i hook up my ipod, what good is it ( or the ipod )...and i don't know what to do with the ipod ( how to download apps, or add music, photos and videos ) w/o the itunes. My previous media players were all drag and drop ease.
I'm a newbie - and i'm rally frustrated - so please be kind. Can anyone tell me - in plain terms - how to get my itunes to not "stop working" every time i hook up my ipod?? Please?
THANKS.

OK, so after looking everywhere for an answer - with no luck - I figured it out on my own ( don't ask me how... ). I'll tell you what I did. I bet you have the same problem. Honestly, I thought I'd be returning the **** thing, but it's fine now.
I'd plug in my ipod ( 32gtouch, like yours ), and itunes would open. Everything was fine until it started to sync my music. Then it would freeze, give me the error message, and then shut down. I did this probably 10 times throughout the day, and always the same. Then I noticed it always froze at the same place during the sync. Soooo, I finally realized I must have a corrupt file.
Step 1: Do as I did, but when it starts to freeze, take note of the name of the song it freezes on. That's probably the culprit .Remember it. Let the error message come up and close as always...
Step 2: Open itunes again! Click on your ipod, and then on the music tab. Immediately un-check "Sync music" ( top of the page ) and then click "apply" ( bottom right ). DO THAT FAST...before it has a chance to sync, or it will just freeze again!
Step 3: Go into your music library on itunes, and DLETE/REMOVE that song.
Step 4: Close itunes.
Step 5: Open itunes, and go again to your ipod, and click on music tab. This time, check the "sync music" box ( and apply ).
That should fix it. If it doesn't you have more than one corrupt file. In that case, close itunes and then open it again. Follow step 1 and 2 again. Remove any songs from your library that aren't that important to you ( especially those that were from questionable sources... ). Basically, you need to figure out which song ( or songs ) are causing the problem. If you just delete them all, you'd have to add them again one at a time to avoid the problem again, and that would be a pain. So, just remove as many as you feel like ( out of 1500 songs or so, I removed a couple hundred ). I left mainly the ones that were from my actual CDs or that I had bought through Amazon ( or other legit source ). I removed most of my Limewire downloads. Most of them are probably fine, but I'll add them later one at a time to be sure...
I still have plenty of Limewire songs on there, and they are fine, but, as you know, you do get bad files sometimes.
Anyways, once I did this, everything is fine and works great. I even started adding album art manually, and at one point it froze again. So, I did steps 1 and 2 again, and removed the album art I last added, and then synced again, and it was fine. Usually, the album art I add is OK, but I had that one pesky photo I guess ). So, I guess the thing is after you get the majority of your music on, just add and adjust things a little at a time, and you'll always know which file is causing you problems ( hopefully no files will!! ).
I hope this works for you. Let me know if you have any questions, and let me know if it solves your issue too!
Peace.

Help ASAP needed

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

Licensing of this product has stop working (since uninstall using your uninstaller)

Since couple of months ago (May be june or July) i have notifications below when i want to use Adobe Premiere Pro cs4
"Licensing of this product has stop working,
This product has has encounter problem which requeire that you restart your computer before it can be launched.
...bla bla bla....
error:5
http://www.adobe.com/support/"
I know this happened since i uninstalled "adobe reader" using Your Uninstaller software. This software notified me to choose delete adobe completely. Then i choose yes, so all my adobe apllication were deleted.
Then i installed again using cd that i bought from local distributor here.
UNFORTUNATELY, My Adobe Premiere Pro were not working.
T.T
For couple of weeks i looked for the solution on google. i have tried many things,
i have read and done everything what explained in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405970.html and http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_cpsid_49485_en-us,
i have searched this problem in this forum too few months ago, and coould find any solution.
And now i really want to know why this happened, I have reinstall again and again with no success, :'(
thanks

Beyond the steps in the Adobe KB, and those outlined in other threads, there is not much that any of us can do.
I, and many others, have found that Adobe Customer Service (not Technical Service) is good and quick, at handling licensing issues. The last time that I needed them, it took all of 5 mins., including hold-time, to get a licensing issue fixed. Now, that was some years ago, and things seemed to have deteriorated, Adobe has made a pledge to improve C/S to how it used to be. Have not used them recently, so have no current comments, but I would call them. Remember, Customer Service, and not Technical Service.
Good luck, and hope that they can help you.

The App Store search has stopped working since I updated to 8.2 on iPad

Hi
since I updated my software to 8.2 on my iPad the App Store search has stopped working but other features work on the App Store only the search option is not responding and says " the App Store is temporary unavailable please try again later "
I have turned my iPad off and on couple of times but with the same result each time.
the 8.2 update is for the new Apple watch and health app.
can any one help?

Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
Do not change your settings.

Ipod stopped working since downloading itunes 7

Hi all,
Downloaded itunes 7 and my ipod has stopped working. every time i connect the ipod it crashes my laptop. sometimes the laptop recovers so i restore the ipod but the music keeps skiping etc. ipod does make some strange sounds when running. has the ipod come to its end of life? Oh i have the ipod 4G.
Thanks to anyone who responds.
Robert

I had the same problem- same iPod. I had to restore the iPod.
What actually fixed it was iTunes 7.02 update.
Have you had a 1418 error? There's a technote for that problem now.

Internet has stopped working since the update.

Since the update ive been unable to get a web page to pull up. I keep getting the "the application internet (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again. The internet connection itself is still working and my you tube, email updates, all of that works just fine. I just cant get an actually web browser page open. Has anyone else come across this issue?

Try deleting the Internet cache data and forcing the application to close.
Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All (tab); scroll down to "Internet" and open the properties for the program.
Press the "Clear Data" button then "Force Stop".
Back out of the Settings menu and try to get on the Internet again.
