How does the wifi hotspot work on the iphone 5s with IOS 8 just installed?

I donwloaded IOS 8 just a few minutes ago. I don't know how to enable the personal hotspot on my phone.

Hey, I had this same issue (iPhone 5 tho). I used to have the enable hotspot on my main menu but Apple decided to turn it off and bury it before I could use it again.
Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network
Scroll down to the bottom. There should be a section that says "Personal Hotspot". Make sure that section has information in it (mine was blank). Copy and paste the APN from "Cellular Data" (the top section) into the "Personal Hotspot", then go back. See if that turns on an option that says "set up personal hotspot", then tap it to start customizing names and password settings.
Hope this helps! What a frustrating thing...

    Little hard to understand what you are asking.  Let me guess that this not an Iphone4S issue.  Its a problem with your service provider.  Contact them.

  • How to sync wifes new iphone4 to my iphone 3g with both on my apple id?

    how to sync wifes new iphone4 to my iphone 3g with both on my apple id?

    I think that might not work.  If you backup your wife's new phone and then try and restore the 3G from that backup I think that you will get an error message because the 3G needs to have the same iOS or higher than the 4 and the 3G can only have iOS 4.2.1  On another note it is not good to use the same ID for imessage on two phones ( if that uis what you plan on also doing) as you will get each others messages

  • How to I get itunes radio on my iphone four with ios 7

    How to I get itunes radio on my iphone four with ios 7

    So I was having the same issue and through guess and check I think I figured out the problem.
    Essentially iTunes Radio is only available in the US, hence your phone needs to know you're within the borders of the USA.
    I went into Settings > Privacy> Location Services > System Services (at bottom of the screen) and started playing around with some location systems I had turned off to preserve battery life. As soon as I turned on the "Setting time zone" function, iTunes Radio became available again.
    It looks like Apple uses that system service to determine location of the phone and thus the availability of iTunes Radio.
    You may have to close out the Radio app and restart (or even restart your phone) to make it work but so far so good for me.
    Good luck!

    Why is the forwarding arrow missing for text messages from my iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.2

    The speak needs to be enabled through settings
    Though - wondering why you are seeing things differently - any chance you can post a picture of what you are seeing
    The next step would be
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If that does not work - then we may be looking at a restore

  • HT4972 my ipad3 doesn't have the wifi hotspot option in the list in settings

    I have taken delivery of an iPad3 64G 4G.
    In the list on the left in settings - there is no item for setting the iPad as a WiFi hotspot.
    I went to a phone shop. They had a new iPad3 there with the same firmware settings etc. The option was in the list - I think the 3rd or 4th from the top.
    Why hasn't my machine got this option? Supposed to be on ALL 3G and 4G machines as far as I know?
    Thanks.

    It's impossible for anyone here to be able to tell your carrier what they need to do to enable their own features. Call your carrier again and keep going up the ladder of support until you find someone who knows what "personal hotspot" or "tethering" means and who understand their own systems.
    By the way, you replied to a thread that's been inactive for almost nine months now. That's usually not a good strategy for getting a quick reply. It's most often going to be more effective to start a new thread rather than replying to one that's quite old and inactive.

  • Does handoff work on an iPhone 4s with iOS 8?

    I have the latest iOS 8 on my 4s but handoff does not seem to be working.  In one page on the OS X Yosemite website it just mentions you need an iOS 8 device.  Yet on another page i saw it mention needing a device with a lightning connector.  Is that correct and is that why my 4s doesn't have handoff capability?

    go it to settings > FaceTime then turn it off
    go into setting > messages then turn it off
    Rest network setting on your phone... General >Reset > Reset network settings
    Your phone will reset as if its doing a update..
    Once the phone boots back up you will have to re enter your APN settings, your wifi password and  your iCloud password,
    reset mac
    once booted back up open messages and face time
    connect to a wifi network
    go back into settings> FaceTime turn in on
    go into setting > messages then turn it on
    follow all pop up
    reset mac and you should be good.
    hope this was helpful

  • Why photo stream is not working in my iPhone 4s with ios 6?

    Since i update my iphone 4s to ios6, the photo stream function does not work.
    After the ios 6 upgrade i checked that my photo stream photos, where there both in iphone and imac (i used iphoto, now i am using aperture..see comment below). Yesterday i delete the pictures from my photo stream and i tried to take new pictures to upload but all my attempts were failing.
    Specifically, I have full battery and i am connected to wi-fi. I have the photo stream function "on", in the icloud settings, and i take a picture with my camera. I close the camera application and i go to the photo application to see this picture in "my photo stream". There is no picture there.
    I have tried several things either from apple's trouble shooting guides or from several related discussions in forums, like opening and closing photo stream in iphone and imac. I reset photo stream from icloud and i even delete and recreate my icloud account. I closed the photo stream function both in my imac and iphone and i restarted them, but again no result. I hard reset the iphone and re-open photo stream
    I have checked that i use the same icloud account and it is correct.
    Another tip is that i recently upgrade Aperture to 3.4 in order to support photo stream. Since then i was using iphoto. The strange thing, is that after the upgrade, i lost the photo stream function in iphoto and i have it only in Aperture. In Aperture, I was able to see the photos i had photo streamed before the upgrade to ios 6
    Furthermore, i tried to make a share photo stream and i shared a picture with my email address. I went to aperture where i can see the new shared photo stream folder but is is empty. In my iphone, i find the shared folder with the picture. 
    I really dont know what else to do because i have tried anything possible and i have search the whole web for a solution
    Please help
    thanks!

    The current version of the Facebook app requires iOS 4.3 or later, as do many current or recent apps. Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.

  • How does my wifes iPad mini access the video on my iTunes account

    I'd like for my wife to have access to the movies i purchase with my itunes account on her ipad mini using her itunes account.  For example:  I just purchased "Frozen" and Id like for her to be able to watch it with my daughter, in and outside the house, from her ipad mini the same way I can watch them on my iphone. 
    Ive put my apple id in the video app setting but that doesn't appear to give her access to my movies. 
    Any thoughts? 
    Thanks.

    How exactly did this happen? Were you using separate iTunes libraries on separate user accounts on the laptop?

  • How does Scope of Selection works in the Create Release transaction ME84?

    Hi Experts,
    I have recently met some weird problems with running ME84 - Create Releases, where I picked 1 Changed Only in the field of Scope of Selection. Actually before running the program, there was no change on that scheduling agreement. But there were some IDocs that were sent by SAP. Is it normal?
    Also, I would like to ask whether we can modify the release order in ME84. Is there another transaction or process that could be used to modify the Release Order for Scheduling Agreement?
    Thanks a lot,
    Chong Tao

    Hi,
    When the program is run in background, At-Selection-Screen is not called, hence doing anything under At-Selection-Screen wont work in back ground. While running in background, you have to enter code in Initialization after putting a check for background execution.
    Thanks & Regards

  • HT3577 How can I turn off the text editing feature on an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.x - when my Mom taps the phone, it always brings up copy.  It does not do this for me so I am assuming it is the way her disability forces her fingers to hit the screen.

    My Mom has tremors and when she uses her iPhone and taps to select, the way she hits the keyboard causes the copy selection to appear.  It is not an issue with her phone because it does not do this for me.  I would like to shut off the double tap feature.  I have already tried Settings/General/Accessibility/Home speed typing = slowest.

    The editing menu doesn't come up when you double tap. It comes up when you press and hold. It can't be turned off.
