New with a hot spot

I finally dropped the land line and went wireless with a JetPack 4G hot spot. Up to now it is working great. I do have the speed that I expected and connecting all my devices to it was very simple. The only problem is that since I dropped the land line I lost my movies on demand from Directv and also will not be able to pay for PPV with the remote. From now on I will have to go to their site (Directv) and do the order and payment on their site. Besides that I don't seem to have any problems. Any comments, good or bad???

So you dropped your cable (I assume DSL) internet but maintained your satelite TV? You should be happy with that decision as long as you can keep your data plan under control. 4G LTE speed is great, but with that great speed comes great responsibility. Stay on top of your data plan and you will be happy.
I would also recommend making a habit out of shutting down your mobile hotspot when you are not using it. These devices are not intended to be an always-on device like your previous cable internet device. This assumption is one of the biggest mistakes that new Mobile Hotspot owners make.

MS Excel document as attachment to a PDF document does not open with a hot spot/link in the PDF

Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

How to enable AT&T new iPad 4G Hot Spot

I know that AT&T doesn't support the hot spot feature and Verizon does, but can this feature be enabled when overseas and using a local sim? Such as if I go to Spainw ith my AT&T new iPad 4G, can I jus tpick up a local prepaid sim and enable the hot spot feature?

But with a prepaid, how can you get it enabled? I'm not aware of any prepaid plans technically support hotspot, but it would work via other devices that just give you the option such as a pure Android device does.
My Android device does not provide hotspot functionality without enabling a hotspot plan from the carrier. The option is there in my device to turn on hotspot functionality but it won't do anything without a plan.

Key Note advance with WiFi Hot Spot

I'm a professional presenter and, like many in this forum, have been frustrated by the ipads inability to connect to a remote slide advance.
With the new ipad2 will the WiFi Hot Spot ability allow us to connect the iphone and ipad on a local wifi network and use the iphone app to advance our slides?

Using a Time capsule with a hot spot device

Is there a way to us the time capsule with a mobile hot spot device so that the TC is the primary wireless router instead of the hot spot device?

Sorry, but this is not possible unless you have an adapter that will provide an Ethernet signal to the Time Capsule's WAN port.

Hot spots-Dreamweaver & Flash

I have a flash timeline on a Dreamweaver site. Is it possible to add hot spots or links to it that will trigger a tooltip or take you to another page on the site? If so how.

To the best of my knowledge, you need to use Action Script within Flash, in your .fla file. Depending on your version of Flash, you will use either Action Script 2.0 or Action Script 3.0.
There may be a way you can fake it with a hot spot/link, but I have no experience with that.

HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1. Service is with ATT. Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple. Anyone else having this problem?

My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1. Any suggestions?

Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.

How can I set up a hot spot on my new iPad. I can't call 611 as suggested.

I would like to set up a hot spot with my new iPad but can't figure out how to do that. I cannot log on to the suggested web site and, of course, I can't dial 611 from my iPad.

Good pointer. It lead me to a phonenumber to call and a real person who said she could help set up my personal hot spot. After that things too a turn for the worse. She could not set up the hot spot without cancelling my grandfathered unlimited data plan. She said I had to cancel that and buy a $50/mo 5Gig plan. I told her that is not what the AT&T wireless iPad support web site said. She wouldn't budge and I wouldn't cave in and accept a new plan - so - I did not get a hot spot, but I get to keep my unlimited $30/mo data plan.
End of discussion for now. I'm going to try to find a basis for an appeal. Wish me luck. If I succeed, I'll post here. If not, thanks to the members of this support community for your assistance.

Had mobile hot spot with 5g and then they moved it into my share paln

What a rip off. We went in to upgrade two phones..$400 and they told me I should change my family plan to a new share everything plan & it would be cheaper. What a scam. Now I get 2 gig data to share with a mobile hot spot & 2 data phones. The old plan had 5 g on the mobile hotspot FOR $50/MO.
THEY DID NOT INFORM ME THAT THe HOT SPOT WOULD HAVE TO SHARE DATA WITH THE REST OF THE PHONES. Now , on day after it's too late to return the upgrade phones & go back to my old plan I GET A WARNING THAT I'M OVER THE DATA ALLOWANCE.. Customer service did nothing but charge me $ 10 more a month until the contract runs out on the hot spot and then I tell them to put it where the, take this & you know.... the thing never worked very well in the first place. I think they should have giving me some free data for the next few month a least. Do you think they explain the so called up grades well????

When did the plan go into affect has it been more than 24 hours?

Ps CS6 Color Sampler Cursor Hot Spot Inconsistent With Rest

I don't use the Color Sampler Tool much, but In checking something for another thread, I noticed the cursor now seems inconsistent with the cursors of the other tools.
Basically, I expected it to drop the sampler on the little crosshair, and it dropped it instead at the end of the dropper.
This used to make sense, and it's still consistent with the Eyedropper cursor (and with prior versions of Photoshop). But I find that now I've gotten used to the other new cursors, most of which now define the hot spot at the upper-left, it didn't do what was expected.
I guess there's not really a good solution for this, other than to just get used to it.
-Noel

That's kind of the point, R_Kelly.
Adobe changed the behavior of SOME of the cursors in Ps CS6 to have the hot spot at the upper left, but they specifically DIDN'T change the one for the samplers. The ones that work that way have something functional-looking at the upper-left of the cursor.
I used to always just know that the end of the dropper was where the action was going to be. NOW, since so many of the cursors have a shape and that extra little tool at the upper-left, it triggered the expectation that in this case the "thing" at the upper-left was where the action was going to be.
Here are some examples:

How do I use my iPhone's hot spot to send email with Mail ?

Hi,
My land line is dead ... so no phone nor internet at home. But I can use my iPhone'hot spot to get on the web from my iMac. Great ... it works !
Oups ! I cannot send email from my computer using my iPhone's hot spot with Mail.
How do I do that ?
Regards.
Robert Lespérance

Hi Templeton Peck,
Thanks for droping in my thread ...
Doesn't the fact that I can surf the web with my iPhone's hot spot and that I cannot use Mail normally has I normally do give you a clue what the problem could be ?
What other information can I give you other than normally I can surf and send email with my regular ISP. Now that my ISP is dead I am using my iPhone's hotspot to surf the web awaiting that my ISP's connoection returns. Surfing is OK but I cannot send emails with through Mail.
When I want to send an email from my computer, I get a message asking me to select the the SMTP server. Then I select my usual ISP server, but the message comes back telling me it does not work.
Is there any other configuration to do ?

I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area. I have stayed with 10G since the beginning. Most months I don't use the 10G. Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't

I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area. I have stayed with 10G since the beginning. Most months I don't use the 10G. Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't use. This month my daughter comes home from College and she accidentally uses 24G.....14 over get blind sided with $140.00 in overages. I called Verizon today......stopped in to the store today......My neighbor told me they waved charges for her one time. Lots of charges.....But I'm am getting no help. Not even an offer of a payment plan to help me out. I went back just 6 months and I have over paid for 19G.....Seems like they would like to help out their loyal customers!!!! Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with them? We are not wealthy....or I would just pay this and walk away......

There is a big misconception in what customers believe a cell carrier is obligated to do.
You pay a set price to use up to that amount of xx data. It makes no difference if you use it to the paid limit or way under. Its like peace of mind when you don't have to worry about a data counter.
Your daughter used the data, your plan is quite clear of what overage charges are. Why should or would Verizon wireless just forgive the charges because you are a customer? Your daughter used the data, get the money from her. That is the responsible thing to do.
There is no "I have been a loyal customer so please remove the $120, or $250, or $2,000.00 since I did not mean to use it"
Your electric company, or gas company or any other company does not remove valid charges. Why should Verizon wireless?
Just pay the invoice and don't think you are being mistreated because Verizon is a business and not a charity.
Good Luck

Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area

Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no other computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area and is wanting a printer to use occasionally. He doesn't want to deal with a computer and I keep his iPad updated for him at my home. Please shed some light on this for us PLEASE. Thanks

In that case, it should be possible. I haven't tried this directly, but I believe it should work.
You'll need to get an actual AirPrint compatible Printer.
Check here for a list of Printers you can choose from.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
Once you have the compatible printer, using the Hotspot feature from the iPhone he'll have to create the Wifi bubble form the iPhone, and connect the Printer to that Wifi network.
Then connect the iPad to that same Wifi network provided by the iPhone. When all that is done, the printer should appear in any of the Apps that can Print under the Action Arrow button.
For instance in email, pressing the action arrow should show a Print option. In there the printer should appear.
Alternatively you can simply buy a wireless router and setup the network through there even if there is no internet attached. Connect the wireless printer to the router network, and connect the iPad or iPhone to that same wifi network to print.
