Lost connection to personal hotspot after upgrading iTunes

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen ,
Used to enjoy connecting my Mac Pro (Mac OS X 10.6.8) to personal hotspot through USB port (since I don't have WiFi card installed.
Was fantastic.
Received a message to upgrade iTunes ... I did ... and the joy has gone (Grrrr) .... Lost the USB connection to Personal Hotspot.
Now I have upgraded iTunes + iO7 ... still have the same problem ... iPhone 4S doesn't appear on the network via USB.
Help
Best regards.

" ... other things will show up with that name ..."
Well, the one thing I can think of is that your iPhone will show up with "that name" on iTunes' summary tab when you sync it. Also, if you receive any warning messages from iTunes on your computer, the messages will have that name.

Hi Rayhiggs,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
To set up and use Personal Hotspot please use the attached article for the process. If Personal Hotspot is not showing as an option in Settings > Cellular, it may be necessary to contact your carrier as described in the article.

Lost connection to 4402 WLC after upgrade

I setup a 4402 this evening an everything was going great. The unit had v4.2.130.0, I need to upgrade to v6.0.182.0.
The upgrade guide requires the following upgrade path v4.2.130.0 > v4.2.176.0 > v6.0.182.0.
I began with the upgrade to .176 and everything was fine. HTTPS / SSH2 was working fine. I could ping the WLC and see both ports from the neighboring switch (cdp neigh). Then I upgrade to ver 6.0.182.0 and I could no longer HTTPS / SSH2 to the WLC. CDP neigh on the connecting switch no longer recognized one of the uplinks.
I have the switch (a Cisco 4507R) configured with a port-channel to the two WLC ports (1 and 2), the WLC is configured with LAG enabled. The port channel was still up as were both ports and no errors in the switch log.
I checked (via Console) the WLC management vlan... that seemed fine. My IP info was fine... Im sure im just overlooking something very minor... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I think after sitting here for so long and trying to find it, Im having tunnel vision.
Thanks in advance!
Rich

No, I didn't touch the boot strap, as per the instructions of a co-worker. I was wondering if this could be my issue.
I am unfortunately in NYC and the WLC is located in Ottawa, Canada, and no one is available patch the management port. Our " Standards" don't include the use of the management port so I didn't even have it connected.
Yes, I did have HTTP and Telnet disabled as per out "Standards".
As of right now I am dead in the water. I had a PC with Net Meeting setup, but the screen saver was never disabled. I went ot get a bite to eat, and yeah... now im locked out, what a night. Fortunately for me, this wasn't a production device. and the site didn't have wireless in the past.

HT1937 my iphone 4s i do not have a personal hotspot after upgrad to iso 7.03 how can i fix this

my iphone 4s i upgraded to iso 7.03 and now i can not find my hot spot and i looked and the carrier i am with is strighttalk and it shows they support it how do i find the hot spot or get it back on my phone

You cannot have just downloaded iOS 7.0.3, the latest iOS is 7.0.4, unless you were hacking the device.
You need to check what carrier file you are using on the phone, as updates may have changed the file. Was this an unlocked phone from another carrier you are now using on Straight Talk? The carrier file can change the APN settings, as well as restrict access to them, causing these restrictions. You will need to work more with Straight Talk to get your hotspot back, they are the ones that control access to it.

Can no longer connect to wireless router after upgrading to iTunes 9.2

My wireless connection was fine (using MacBook). After upgrading iTunes, I can not longer connect to router/modem wirelessly - am tethered with an ethernet cable. Spent 1 1/2 hours on phone with AT&T support reseting the passwords, security, etc. A PC laptop accepts password and can connect. My iPhone still can connect. But my MacBook (OS X 10.6) will not recognize my password for the modem/router. Everything has been re-booted and reset to original settings. Also, I received an iPad yesterday and it won't accept the password for our home wireless network. The password is correct because I am using it on other devices that are connecting to the network. Any ideas?

Yes, but the issue is not with Lion directly; there seems to be something with the upgraded system, perhaps a legacy setting or pref... I've scoured the system to no avail. I'm actually about to reinstall 10.6 - wasted too much time on this issue.
Thanks for your help.

Hello SHenoudabak,
It sounds like you are trying to find the Personal Hotspot option in your Settings. You were close. The option is directly under Settings, and not in the Cellular section of Settings:
Go to Settings > Personal Hotspot

After upgrading ITunes I lost Americana stream

After upgrading ITunes to v7.1.1.5 I lost the Americana stream. CelticMelt was the only station I really listened to. What happened?
Is it still available?

Here is a link to -> CelticMelt at Live365.com.
Click on Play and it should open a window and also start playing in iTunes.
In iTunes, add it to a playlist.
I create a playlist just for radio stations cause the list that Apple has comes and goes.

Hey andreas4417,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with Personal Hotspot since upgrading to iOS 7.1. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
Basic troubleshooting
1. See if your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
2. Make sure Personal Hotspot is on: Tap Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
3. Check the Internet connection on your iOS device: Tap Safari and load a new webpage.
4. If one connection type doesn't work, try another. For example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, use USB or Bluetooth.
5. Turn Personal Hotspot off and on: Tap Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
6. Install the latest version of iOS.
7. Reset your network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Hey there arunvdi,
It sounds like you are unable to connect to the Wi-Fi created by your Personal Hotspot. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2756
Try disabling and reenabling Personal Hotspot from Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Wi-Fi troubleshooting
If you encounter an issue using Personal Hotspot with other Wi-Fi devices, try the following:
Turn Personal Hotspot off.
Verify Wi-Fi is on in Settings > Wi-Fi.
Turn Personal Hotspot back on.
If another device is unable to join your Wi-Fi network, ensure that the user enters the Wi-Fi password correctly. If the device cannot see your Wi-Fi network, verify your device name.
Note: Windows may not properly display a device name that uses non-ASCII characters.
Verify how many devices are currently using your Personal Hotspot. Depending on your wireless carrier and, the maximum number of Wi-Fi connections may be limited to three at one time.
If the other device still cannot connect, try turning Wi-Fi off and on again on the device. Verify that your device can see other Wi-Fi networks.
Note: If you see an "Unable to Join" or timeout error when trying to connect a device using Wi-Fi, ensure that you remain on the Personal Hotspot screen until the first device connects. After a device has connected, you can leave the Personal Hotspot screen and use your phone normally. Your device will automatically stop broadcasting using Wi-Fi if you put your device to sleep or after 90 seconds elapse with no devices connected using Wi-Fi. You can start broadcasting your Wi-Fi network again by tapping Settings > Personal Hotspot.
If none of the previous steps resolves your issue, restore the iPhone.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

My iPhone 3GS lost the signal operator completely after upgrading to iOS version 6.1.2, someone with the same problem? Just think when I enable the 3G, soon followed falls again.
I have already put another chip carrier and the same problem happens, my phone is factory unlocked.

Had same problem with iphone5 6.1.2 update. First tried reset network settings and didn work... Support recommend me a restore and ended up in recovery loop with iTunes error (-1)
Been at my carrier store (Optimus Portugal)... and iPhone sent to warranty. After 2 macbooks, 1 imac, 2 appletvs, 2 iphones, 1 ipod... I find disappointment with apple reliability....
At least the support guys at Optimus Portugal were very helpful and friendly, but I'll be 15 days without iPhone...

Iphone 4 not recognised by laptop after upgrading Itunes, the itunes symbol and a usb cord has appeared on my Iphone 4 screen. Frustrated isn't the word.

iphone 4 not recognised by laptop after upgrading Itunes, the itunes symbol and a usb cord has appeared on my Iphone 4 screen. Frustrated isn't the word.
After installing latest version of Itunes, I connected my Iphone via USB and selcted yes to upgrade my Iphone, towards the end of the upgrade a notification popped up indicating that the upgrade had failed. Since then my Iphone just isn't responding, I've tried reinstalling Itunes, turning off Norton Security.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Carolyn,
I've been through all those and apart from anything else, itunes is not seeing my phone, I therefore cannot restore the phone.
Have tried deleting and reinstalling itunes in case something was missing there, though the fact the problem is on both my mac and my windows machine seems to me to suggest a phone problem..
Is it possible that the latest IOS update which I did a week or so ago was not completed correctly? If so could this cause the problem? And how can I correct it?
Many thanks
