Iphone Tethering Problem

I cant seem to get the iphone tethering option working. All the instructions i have read so far say to go to Settings>General>Network>Internet Tethering. This so called "Internet Tethering" menu does not seem to show up on my iphone 3G. I have downloaded the new 3.0 software. I also have read several people who had this same question, but have not seen a clear answer. Is the problem with AT&T, or with how my settings are set up?

It is currently hidden by the profile installed on US iphones, but it is included in the 3.0 firmware. You cannot unlock it without violating you terms of service agreement with ATT and we cannot give those directions here. Hopefully, ATT will make it available soon so we can legally tether.

would like to have your thoughts though.
$headers .= "Content-Type:text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable";

Missing TCP/IP settings for iPhone tethering (Bluetooth and USB)

Is it just me or Apple has completely disabled the TCP/IP settings for BT and USB connections for iPhone tethering (and possibly any other mobile devices)?
I can now only set the IP addresses and DNS server. No Proxies or WINS settings tabs.
I have also noticed that if you setup a USB tethering connection in Leopard and upgrade to Snow Leopard, the settings are still available, but NOT if you make a clean install of Snow Leopard and create a new iPhone USB tethering connection.
I always use a SOCKS5 when I'm using my tethering connection for security and better/faster connection with my manual proxy server setup. I find the new "options" in SL very limited, not only for my usage.

I got this to work again (in fact, I'm tethered right now
Here are the steps I followed:
1) Upgraded to iTunes 9
2) Upgraded iPhone to OS 3.1
3) Removed device from Bluetooth Devices list on my MBP
4) Removed Bluetooth PAN from Network preferences
5) Restarted iPhone and MBP
6) Set-up iPhone as a Bluetooth Device on MBP
7) Enabled tethering on iPhone
8) Connected to iPhone network via the Bluetooth icon on my MBP menu bar
9) Verified that the blue "Internet Tethering" bar was on the iPhone
10) Manually added Bluetooth PAN to my MBP network preferences (connect show as yellow, "IP cannot be assigned" message)
11) Opened the Advanced pane and clicked the "Renew DHCP Lease" button
12) IP was assigned!
I'm not sure if the first two steps contributed to the solution or not, but these are the steps that worked for me.
Good luck to you all...

10.6.3 and iPhone tethering over Bluetooth

This issue probably won't be widely reported because there is no iPhone tethering in the US with AT&T, but since upgrading to 10.6.3, I'm finding tethering my 13" MacBook Pro to my iPhone over Bluetooth to be really unreliable. Each time I do it, I basically have to stop and start Bluetooth on my Mac, and sometimes put my phone in to Airplane mode and back to normal again before it will tether.
Any other Canadians or others having this issue?

Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update. Mostly it is with use of the keyboard. Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling. Apparently many others have had various problems. The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled. I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
Sure would appreciate help! Thank you!

settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
also turn off automatic app updated...

May be you have turned the DO NO DISTURB in your iphone settings.
Check as below DND settings
Settings>>Do Not Disturb
If you are iPhone is on version iOS 5.X there was a bug which does not let the DO NOT DISTURB function properly.
SO, its better you to latest iOS version 7.0.4, no other versions of iOS are signed by APPLE hence forth.

try this and see if it works: connect your iPhone and open up iTunes on your PC. Go to your phone's page. Under Summary page, check manually manage music and videos.

Hello rj_23_sv,
I would be be concerned too if I was not able to update my iPhone. If you have not resolved the issue, I recommend following article for an issue like this:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
As always, it is a good idea to create a backup before hand:

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct

My iphone has problem activating. It says incorrect apple id but the apple id is correct ?

FAQ apple id http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622?viewlocale=en_US
You are seeing your old apple id because that was the ID that was used to download the app, you can't merge apple id.
to update the app, you will have to enter the old password.
Any new apps you download with your new id, will use that id and password.

IPhone camera problems.

Ok. I'm running 3.1.3 on iPhone 3G.
Recently my iPhone just decided that it wasn't going to let me take pictures anymore. All it allows me to do is open the camera app and it shows the camera shutter and that's all it shows and a restart of iPhone doesn't work and a restore of iPhone doesn't help. I don't know what the problem could be. It hasn't gotten any water damage or any physical damage to cause this to happen. I really wish someone could help ! I love to take pictures of funny things and show my friends. Now it used to be jailbroken but I unjailbroke it about a week after 3.1.3 came out and it hasn't been jailbroken since. This problem just started with my iPhone about two days ago.

Hello. I have just purchased a used Apple iphone (8GB)from a local salesmen that sells used items for a cheap price. (For example I purchased this phone for the low price of $200.00). After I purchased it I took it home and, with the instructions given by the salesperson, I jail broke my iphone to a Cincinnati Bell Network Plan with my current SIM card. I realized the iphone worked perfectly as if it was brand new, except for one thing, when I went to take a picture the camera didn't work correctly. While researching my iphone's problem on the internet I have not seen a problem quite like mine. I will explain: When you open the app for "camera" on my iphone by clicking on it the camera comes up, but instead of showing on the screen what a normal camera would show, it simply shows a screen that looks to me as what a closed lens of a digital camera would look like if the screen were to show you. It looks like a closed camera lens every time I open up the app with a small icon on the bottom which symbolizes a camera. When you click on the camera icon the iphone does nothing and acts as if you clicked on nothing. To solve this problem I have taken it back to the salesman to ask for help. He took it in for 2 days in which he said he would fix it. When he returned it he sated that he fixed the problem and all I would have to do is put a different camera app on my iphone. However after trying 3 different camera apps, which i wasted money on, I am still left with the same closed lens look on every camera app I have installed. All the camera apps on my phone, new and old, do not react to any touching of the screen after open to open the lens or take a picture. They just simply show the "closed lens" look on the screen, thus NOT fixing my problem. Thank you for any help you can address my problem with. It is much appreciated and if I can fix this problem I won't feel as if I have wasted $200.00 and counting on my iphone and the apps I have installed to fix the issue addressed above.
Thanks again for any assistance in this matter,
Batsakis
