How do I stop my personal hot spot from continually searching in ios 7?

My personal hotspot keeps searching and trying to initialize.  I do not have this set up with my carrier. How can I stop this as it drains my battery?  Thanks in advance

Hello Shot1950
All you would need to do is go to Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot and turn it off. Check out the article below for more information about Persona Hotspot.

  • How do I print to HP 3050A via personal hot spot

    How do I set up printer, computer and iPhone 5 to print via the personal hot spot?

    The problem is not the printer it is the hotspot. Check the information for your printer and see if it can set up and use its own ad hoc WiFi network. If it can you connect your devices to that WiFi hotspot to print.

  • How can I set up a hot spot on my new iPad.  I can't call 611 as suggested.

    I would like to set up a hot spot with my new iPad but can't figure out how to do that.  I cannot log on to the suggested web site and, of course, I can't dial 611 from my iPad.

    Good pointer.  It lead me to a phonenumber to call and a real person who said she could help set up my personal hot spot.   After that things too a turn for the worse.  She could not set up the hot spot without cancelling my grandfathered  unlimited data plan.  She said I had to cancel that and buy a $50/mo 5Gig plan.  I told her that is not what the AT&T wireless iPad support web site said.  She wouldn't budge and I wouldn't cave in and accept a new plan - so - I did not get a hot spot, but I get to keep my unlimited $30/mo data plan.
    End of discussion for now.  I'm going to try to find a basis for an appeal.  Wish me luck.  If I succeed, I'll post here.  If not, thanks to the members of this support community for your assistance.

  • Personal Hot Spot Won't Turn Off

    I was using my phone as a personal hot spot and all worked great.  Until I wanted to turn the hot spot off.  The slider wouldn't move. I had to do a reset to get it to turn off.  Anyone else had this issue and if so, how did you rsolve it?  I'm on a new iPhone5 with the latest OS.  (upgraded the phone last week from a 4 to the 5)
    Thanks  Sue

    Hey dudes,
    Thanks for both your responses, it always amazes me how fast and reliable this forum is. It's such a saviour, because to be quite honest, and I bet most people on here would agree, that nothing is more distressing then a non-functional mac ... it's just so, what's the word uncharacteristic.
    To answer your questions, I have run software update, got all the updates, including firmware ... but they seemed to do nothing. Oddly enough, when I booted my computer today, to view these posts, the fan hasn't come on yet. Sadly enough the only thing I did was uninstall a 3d-surround plugin-program for itunes. Whether it was actually this causing the problem, or whether it took a couple of boots for the firmware updates to fix the issue, I don't know but my macbook is running cool again, with no fans ... w00t! So to be honest I'm not quite sure what fixed it, but I'll tell you one thing, no more bizarre 3rd party apps for me. If the problem comes back I'll post it on here. Thanks again guys for all your support.

  • Since downloading IOS 7.0 on my iPhone 4 I do not have the ability to connect to wifi.  I can't even move the on/off button at all. Also, the "personal hot spot"

    Since downloading IOS 7.0 on my iPhone 4, I cannot connect to wifi. The button is greyed out, so I can't even turn it on. I can't download the upgraded version that fixes some of the bugs because you have to be able to connect to the internet to download it.  I also noticed that under "Settings", my Bluetooth and Personal Hot Spot settings are constantly roaming with the circle that just keeps going around and around. I've tried everthing (I think). It was directly related to the 7.0 download because it happened right away. Any ideas? I listen to a lot of eBooks when I commute each day and I need to connect to the internet to download the full versions. I miss my books!!

    See if this helps you with the wifi issue. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559

    Did you update to iOS 7? If yes you need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1
    If you are using iTunes 11.0 and iOS 6.x then show the left sidebar in iTunes.
    When in iTunes on your computer use the View menu to View Sidebar. The device should show up there when connected.

  • In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Not detected

    In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Iphone does not get detected on Wi-fi or bluetooth. Restarting or rebooting does not help.  

    Settings, general, reset and reset network settings. Clear out your network settings and set personal hotspot again.
    also avoid special characters making a password. hashtags or open brackets for example doesn't work too good.

  • Connecting to Personal Hot Spot

    I have difficulty connecting a new iMac to my Personal Hot Spot (phone or iPad) through my WiFi icon in the menu bar.  The device shows up but it will not connect and I'm forced to open Network Settings in the System Preferences, search for the Hot Spot under Networks, then connect.  My old iMac would always connect via the menu bar.  Is there a setting I am missing?

  • How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the "replacement" face from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the face. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the face from picture B to cover the face on A
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and face B on a separate layer

  • Does setting up a personal hot spot allow other people to use up your cellular data

    by setting up your own personal hot spot does it allow other people to use up you cellular data?

    Basically yes.  Personal Hotspot means you are sharing out your Cellular Data connection.
    If you give the Hotspot password to someone they will use your Cellular data to access the internet.
