IPhone Tethering after upgrade doesn't work

My Iphone 4 has been successfully tethering via my ATT Hotspot to various phones and devices for at least a year.  Recently, I upgraded my Iphone and Ipad to iOS6, and now I can no longer tether my Ipad.  I've tried with four different Ipads and none can tether to my Iphone.  They show two continually moving circles by "Choose a Network" and the network name.   The Ipad does show the chain symbol is the upper left along with the wifi strength signal, so it appears the Ipad has identified my phone's hotspot, but just can't make or hold the connection.  HELP!!!

Does this occur with any wi-fi network or just with your wi-fi network?
Did you restore the iPhone from the iPhone's backup, or as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup?
If the former, you placed the iPhone right back where it was. If the latter, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

  • Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5?

    Why has Siri stopped working on iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 5? I've tried the disable and reboot but continue to get the network error.

    Apple has not been forthcoming on the explanation. My Siri worked on my iphone4 (not 4s) immediately after upgrading to IOS5, but I take it they have redirected the servers that used to support Siri to only work with Iphone4s.
    It is one thing for apple to only bundle the improved Siri with IPhone 4S, or  for them to remove Siri from the Ap store.
    But it is another thing all together for apple to purchase a company, and then cease the service that many of us paid for.
    Attempts to contact apple at apple store and via email have been unhelpful.

    After acceessing home screen with assistive touch auto lock is not working in my iphone 4S after upgrading to ios6

    Additional testing i perform to make wifi work but nothing works out:
    i did re-installing the software using iTunes, reset the network settings restarting the phone. Nothing solves my problem.
    wifi was working with older software versions. i think there should be a problem with 8.1.1.
    is anyone has fix for this issue?

  • The search function in App Store, is not working in my iPhone 4, after upgrading to ios6

    The search function in App Store, is not working in my iPhone 4, after upgrading to ios6. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

    Having the same problem.  No response from Apple as I tried all the suggestions.  Had to perform a system restore.  Currently iy's working.  Make sure you backup everything to your computer.  IOS6 is still glitchy in other areas.

    Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
    That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
    Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps).  Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior.  The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere.  Specific syncs are not relevant.

    I have iphone 5, after upgrading it to iOS7, front is working find unfortunately rear camera became blurred, what is the best way to fix this? Looking forward to the best solution of this problem.

    WORKAROUND FOUND ! Download and install "Awesome Camera" app and take a picture with that app. After 1-2 seconds of standby, it will work. Then you can go back to default Camera app which would work again.Please let me know

  • Siri stopped working on my iPhone 5 after upgrading to iOS7

    Siri stopped working on my iPhone 5 after upgrading to iOS7...Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

    To use Siri:
    1.  It must be on (Settings > General > Siri)
    2.  You must be connected to the internet
    3.  You must be in an area where Siri is permitted (it is not permitted, for example, in certain countries).

  • Reception / Battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1

    There are major reception and battery problems with iPhone 3GS after upgrading to iOS 4.2.1.
    I can not believe that Apple did not test this for major bugs like this one is.
    I am a business user and can not effort to have bad reception. Apple wants to gain in the business clients... I never had this with my former BlackBerrys!
    I need a reliable phone not a play thing like this is right now, it just needs it to work propely. And if a major bug like this comes along, fix it immediately. After the iPhone4 story, now this...incredible! Going back to my reliable BlackBerry! It just ain't reliable and takes forever to fix a problem.

    I have the same issue after iOS 4.2.1 update. I am using iPhone 3GS officially unlocked by Apple. I tried using different SIM cards and both carriers show same problem when using phone in 3G mode. Phone falls back to EDGE mode showing 'E' from '3G' at start. I have reset the phone and rebooted several times and moved to different cell areas in the city just to verify the problem.
    I had no such issues earlier. I also have Nokia E71 which shows full signal and has no such issues.
    I have posted the bug on apple iphone feedback page. I hope they Apple will fix the problem and test the release properly on all models before releasing to public.

  • I cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1

    i cant activate my iphone 3gs after upgrade to 5.1.1

    I am experiencing the same issue and could use some advice:
    Yesterday I plugged my Iphone 3GS into my computer and I selected in Itunes to update to the latest IOS 5.1.1.
    Before I did this the iphone worked correctly, and after I did this it will not let me access the apps at all. I went to the Apple store and the rep told me I needed to have a working AT&T sim installed in it to complete the upgrade. I went to the AT&T store and had them put one of their working sim card in and it would not work.  The AT&T rep said he has seen several people with Iphone 3GS who updated to the latest IOS 5.1.1 whos phones will not recognize the sim card and thus will not let you get to the apps. 
    Does anyone know how to correct this problem?

  • 50L7300 upgrade doesn't work

    WOW! I went through 24 pages here and couldn't believe how many different problems were described and hardly any resolution was offered by Toshiba.  I bought this brand and model because others didn't have wired network connection and VGA input that I needed.  I was pretty happy with it, until I heard a buzz at certain voice frequencies during a talk show or documentary.  Although part of the problem was a cable on the back panel touching the TV housing, something in the TV still resonates sometimes.  This is clearly a sound problem, the tech wanted to replace the motherboard. After removing the motherboard he found that Toshiba sent him a different board so he put the original board back.  I bought the TV last November, the warranty expired and now "an upgrade is available” message comes up every time I turn the TV on.  You can select yes or no if you want to do the upgrade.  Needless to say the "upgrade" doesn't work, it downloads the files 100%, starts the "upgrade", blue screen, upgrade in progress, 1%, green light blinks and then nothing happens, the TV is back where it  was before, never completes the supposed "upgrade", no message to that effect. Toshiba can't find a resolution, the Help desk in Manila have no idea, they tell you to leave the TV on for hours during the "upgrade" and they will call you the next day to see if it completed...  You guessed it, he didn't call back and when I called again "JR" said he would tell the supervisor and he would call me back in 20 minutes... Two days later he called back but he had no idea what the solution was. They also gave me the phone numbers of two Toshiba authorized service agents, Video Doctor and Precision TV. When I called the former the tech said that you have to replace the motherboard that costs around $300. The latter would come out and charge $105 just to run diagnostics or $39.99 for a call… Toshiba’s suggested manual USB upgrade didn’t work either and second level support (supervisor) asked me what brand I used and try another brand of USB drive as part of the process of elimination before he can escalate it to the factory engineers..,. I guess their idea of support and problem solving is not the process of elimination but the elimination of process until the customer gets tired and goes away… I will never buy a Toshiba product again, I will stick to the best: Sony, Panasonic or LG…

    I totally sympathize with you! I had a very similar experience like a year ago with version 7.whocanremember. I was an idiot and I deleted itunes and had a **** of a time trying to get it reloaded. I had tried to downgrade with zero luck. I don't think you will be able to. When you install that new version you see that little window pops up that says updating library. Have you tried just reinstalling 7.6? That is what I am going to try. I've got an interesting problem that I will probably be posting if a reinstall doesn't fix it. Good luck to you!!
