Personal Hot Spot doesn't appear in my settings ?

Hi
just updated my iPhone4 that works on Qatar Telecom but Personal Hot Spot doesn't appear in my settings ?

Apple doesn't own the network? They certainly own the hotspot on the iPhone!
In order to get a better deal with the carriers (contractually and financially), Apple offers tethering as an added incentive. Technically the wifi hotspot and the cell data network are two different networks and it is just a matter for the device (iPhone) to route between them. Neither network has a technical dependency on the other. Just like any other router in existence, iPhone would do this by default. It is Apple's choice to then further add this limitation to the device as a 'feature'. This is a case of revenue ahead of the (end) customer. The best way to benefit is to be an Apple shareholder

    Hello arcalan.munir,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are no longer seeing the option for Personal Hotspot on your iPhone. In this situation, Personal Hotspot may not be configured with your carrier. Please use the information in the attached article as a resource.
    iOS: Understanding Personal Hotspot - Apple Support
    Note: If you do not see the option for Personal Hotspot, confirm with your carrier that this feature is supported and your wireless plan is configured for Personal Hotspot. For additional troubleshooting, see this article.
    Cheers,

    Did you update to iOS 7? If yes you need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1
    If you are using iTunes 11.0 and iOS 6.x then show the left sidebar in iTunes.
    When in iTunes on your computer use the View menu to View Sidebar. The device should show up there when connected.

  • In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Not detected

    In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Iphone does not get detected on Wi-fi or bluetooth. Restarting or rebooting does not help.  

    Settings, general, reset and reset network settings. Clear out your network settings and set personal hotspot again.
    also avoid special characters making a password. hashtags or open brackets for example doesn't work too good.

  • Whe When I activate my Personal Hot Spot on my iphone, it broadcasts my full name to the world as the network name.  How do I change that?

    When I activate my Personal Hot Spot on my iPhone, the iPhone broadcasts my full name to the world os my network name.  How do I change the network name to something other than my name?

    Connect your iPhone to your computer, when the name appears under DEVICES on the far left frame highlight it and type in the new name.

  • Personal hot spot on T-Mobile.

    Evening all. I'm wondering if anyone knows if using the personal hot spot feature on iPhone 5 with T-Mobile in the UK costs anything. I'm on the full monty plan, unlimited minutes, texts and data. I can find nothing on their web site. The function works but I don't know about additional charges. I've only been with them for a day. I must say the 3G coverage is considerably better than Vodafone's in my area, it's for this reason I ditched VF.

  • Since downloading IOS 7.0 on my iPhone 4 I do not have the ability to connect to wifi.  I can't even move the on/off button at all. Also, the "personal hot spot"

    Since downloading IOS 7.0 on my iPhone 4, I cannot connect to wifi. The button is greyed out, so I can't even turn it on. I can't download the upgraded version that fixes some of the bugs because you have to be able to connect to the internet to download it.  I also noticed that under "Settings", my Bluetooth and Personal Hot Spot settings are constantly roaming with the circle that just keeps going around and around. I've tried everthing (I think). It was directly related to the 7.0 download because it happened right away. Any ideas? I listen to a lot of eBooks when I commute each day and I need to connect to the internet to download the full versions. I miss my books!!

    See if this helps you with the wifi issue. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559

  • Connecting to Personal Hot Spot

    I have difficulty connecting a new iMac to my Personal Hot Spot (phone or iPad) through my WiFi icon in the menu bar.  The device shows up but it will not connect and I'm forced to open Network Settings in the System Preferences, search for the Hot Spot under Networks, then connect.  My old iMac would always connect via the menu bar.  Is there a setting I am missing?

  • How do I print to HP 3050A via personal hot spot

    How do I set up printer, computer and iPhone 5 to print via the personal hot spot?

    The problem is not the printer it is the hotspot. Check the information for your printer and see if it can set up and use its own ad hoc WiFi network. If it can you connect your devices to that WiFi hotspot to print.

  • Does setting up a personal hot spot allow other people to use up your cellular data

    by setting up your own personal hot spot does it allow other people to use up you cellular data?

    Basically yes.  Personal Hotspot means you are sharing out your Cellular Data connection.
    If you give the Hotspot password to someone they will use your Cellular data to access the internet.
