I can only see my hotspot when i am on the settings screen

i can not see my hotspot from another device unless i have my settings screen open to the hotspot setting window.  Is this the way the hotspot is supposed to work?  Once i make my connection from another device i can then use my phone as normal and stay connected...

Try cleaning out your headphone jack with compressed air and/or a tissue/cotton swab.
Try plugging your headphones in/out about 20 times.

  • When using mini port with HDMI adapter, can only see front page (stars) will not display whats on screen??

    Thanks for taking the time to respond, after I posted my brain kicked in and I recalled that mid 09 were not audio compatible. not a big deal anyway since there are multiple ways to listen...

  • I can only see pink fuzz when I connect my Macbook Pro to my TV.

    Hello.  I am using a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, on 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 and with 500GB of storage.  It's installed with OS Yosemite and I have it connected to my Philips 50/60 Hz, 74W TV via a VGA to component video cable and a thunderbolt adapter.  All I get on the screen in fuzzy magenta and black flickering.  Why is this, and is there anything I can do about it?
    Cheers.

    Thanks, Brenden.  I have looked at that page; the fist time it went over my head!  I've read it a second time and is it true that you can't attach an adapter (thunderbolt to VGA) to another (VGA to RCA)?
    This is a picture from the internet of a TV just like ours.  It's a flat screen CRT television.

  • Bought the Adobe export package and tried to export a PDF to Excel and I can only get "error occured when trying to access the service"

    Cannot get any exports to work on PDF's after I bought the membership? Any help?

    Hi Dylan,
    Are you trying to access the service from Acrobat Reader?
    Try using the link: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf sign in with your Adobe ID and try to convert a pdf to doc and check if that works for you.

  • Why can i only see my music when connected to wifi

    i started to use icloud when i got the new iphone and new ipad.  but i can only see my music when i'm connected to wifi or 4g.  what can i do to use the music when no service is available.

    Under the music tab in your settings you will need to turn on cellular data, with itunes match if your not connected to the internet either through celleluar data or wi-fi it will not play the music because it is streaming from icloud. The only other way to have your music play with out connection is to actually sync them to your phone. See attached.

  • HT5517 I cannot see my Apple TV.  I have 2 of them and can only see one.  Ideas?

    I cannot see my Apple TV with airplay.  I have 2 of them and can only see one.  Ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.

  • When my phone turns on it goes to the normal screen for 1 second and then it gets very large so you can only see a few icons

    When I turn my iphone on, the usual main icon screen shows for about a second and then it blows up so you can only see a few icons at a time.  How do you turn this off?

    Your phone might be on Zoom somehow, try just the simple "gestures" fix
    Double tap with 3 fingers on the screen, then drag down. That should at least zoom out. If that does not work, try scrolling through the screen, but using 3 fingers instead of 1.
    From there you should be able to access Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom>OFF
    Hope this helps

  • I have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see picture from one of the albums.what should i do?

    i have an ipad version 5.1.1. i have multiple albums in the ipad and i want to transfer some photos to my computer but when i open the ipad files via "computer" i can only see pictures from one of the albums.what should i do?

    You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
    Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

  • I shared more than 3000 pictures in icloud, but when I try to watch them in another device  I can only see 300. Is there a limit on the number of pictures I can share?

    If you are looking at My Photo Stream, check this out: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4486
    How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
    How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .

    How many photos and videos can be stored in a shared stream?
    A shared stream can hold a maximum of 5000 photos and videos combined. When you reach your limit, you must delete some photos or videos before adding new ones.
    How long are iCloud Photo Sharing photos and videos stored in iCloud?
    The photos and videos you share (and the comments or Likes associated with those photos) remain in iCloud until you or the contributor delete them manually, or until you delete the shared stream completely.

  • When I use the 'reply' tab in Hotmail I can only see half of the screen and am unable to scroll down to view the email I am responding to. How do I fix this?

    I use Hotmail and when I hit 'reply' I can only see half of the page. I cannot tab down to read the email I am responding to and if I type too much the text disappears into the hidden section of the page. This does not happen in Google Chrome when I checked it so it is a Firefox problem.
    How do I fix this?

    OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.
