  • Is it possible to share internet from Mac to iPhone using USB?

    Can i use the:
    System Preferences,
    Internet sharing,
    Share your connection:
         From Ethernet
         To computers using iPhone USB
    to share my Mac's internet connection to my iPhone?
    I hadn't noticed the "To computers using: iPhone USB" option previously. Is this what it's intended for?

    Hi Farook
    This site tells you it can be done, but not how to do it :-(
    Using Bluetooth as your Internet Connection

    There's a solution available for several SE / Moto / Nokia devices
    GnuBox (Symbian OS)

    These are for certain Sony Ericsson models, and require that you install the SE JDK on your PC

    Using these as a starting point, I wonder if you will be able to come up with a j2me solution ?!? It would definitely be appreciated by one and all.
    Wish you luck, Darryl

  • TS5254 Hi, is there a way to share my Macbook's internet connection to my iPhone via USB?

    I want to share my Macbook's internet connection to my iPhone. I thought the internet sharing via iPhone USB would do the trick but I can't seem to get it working.
    Issue arose because my iPhone wifi capabilities seem to have died (Wifi switch is greyed out and I can't switch it on), read a solution online that says I may have to restore my phone, however it requires me to turn off Find My iPhone, which I cannot do without an internet connnection. The only option being using the internet sharing function...
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I thought the internet sharing via iPhone USB would do the trick but I can't seem to get it working.
    Thats because what you're tyring to is not possible.  Internet sharing is for sharing the phones cellular connection over wifi, not the other way around.
    which I cannot do without an internet connnection.
    Is there a reason why phones standard cellular connection doesn't work for you?

  • Sync mail from Outlook to iPhone via USB Cable

    I have a problem by synchronizing my iPhone with my Outlook 2007.
    I want to synchronize my Outlook mail, contacts and calendar by using iTunes.
    I have set iTunes to synchronize via USB Cable and it works for the contacts and calendar but I can’t see my mail.
    I assume the mail should be at the bottom “Mail” on my iPhone?
    I have set iTunes to sync mail to Outlook but I can’t se anything
    How do I set op iTunes to sync my mail to the phone?
    Please help as I can only find answers for problems with Push server….
    Thanks in advance:)

    iTunes does not support syncing email account mailboxes and messages with an email client on your computer. The option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes for email accounts is for transferring the email account settings from a supported application on your computer to the iPhone's Mail client only so you don't have to manually create the account.
    If you want to keep mailboxes synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account, you need an IMAP account which is specifically designed for this.

  • Sharing Mobile Internet from Mac to iPhone via WiFi

    I am using a Macbook Pro, OS X 10.9.3.
    I am using the internet via a mobile USB stick that I bought today. The set-up worked perfect and I have no problem accessing the internet on my mac! Earlier today I chose to share the connection so I could use my iPhone & iPad. I then went away for 20 min, and when I came back I couldn't share my internet connection anymore.
    I've tried closing and opening the internet, choosing to share my connection via bluetooth, but nothing helps. I've set it to share the connection via HUAWEI Mobile (which is the name of the USB) and to computers using WiFi. The exact same settings I used before, when it worked. And now it doesn't
    I've tried using the "create network option", but when I choose to join the network on my iPhone it says that "the computer isn't connected to the internet" -even though I am!
    What happens when I try to share my connection: The "shared connection symbol" (arrow in the wifi symbol) shortly flashes up, but then it seems to be searching for another wifi connection, doesn't find it (the reason I bought mobile internet: There is no wifi here) and then the symbol is just light grey (= no wifi).

    No.

  • Can I share internet from a airport express via the ethernet port

    I have a older airport express that I am trying to you to share the internet with a Marantz AV receiver. I used to be able to share the internet to a PS2 a few years back.
    I was able to set up another network parallel to my normal wireless network with an older moonbase style airport extreme using WDS.
    I am unsure if this is the limitation that apple has introduced to the unit, or it is a Telstra firewall issue.
    Is it possible using a combination of Airport Etremes or expresses to share the internet to a wired unit?

    I have a new airport extreme that I use all the time. I was using the older airport express for airplay.
    The older airport extreme I just pulled down from the cupboard trying to get the AVR connected.
    Since posting I have able to use the Airport extreme to connect the AVR via the ethernet port.
    Still curious why I cannot connect using the airport express.
    Interestingly the older airport extreme pushed the new airport extreme into WDS mode. Tried to hook up the express and it did not work.

  • Internet from macbook to PS2 via ethernet port on macbook

    I am currently connected to the internet through the airport thing from a router on my macbook. I have read online that you can share your internet connection to another computer through your ethernet port.
    My question is, can you have the internet connection run from my macbook to my ps2 through an ethernet cable? I tried the internet sharing thing in osx but it didnt work and I dont want to buy an expensive wireless adapter.

    Sure, it's been done, but if you use encryption you'll have problems.
    Setup Internet Sharing on the Mac, wait up to 45 minutes for any SMB device to announce itself, (crazy, I know)
    Set the Router on the {S2 to be the IP of the MacBook.
    Post with results or non-results.

  • Is there any way to retrieve notes from a broken iphone via usb connection?

    I have an old broken iphone 3g and I want to retrieve the notes from my old phone; however, there is absolutely no way I can turn the phone on and manually email the notes to myself.  Is there any way I can retrieve the notes from a file transfer system once synching up the iphone to my computer?  If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it! 
    Thanks

    If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
    You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

  • Transfering Divx movies from Macbook to PS3 via usb

    I recently purchased a PS3 in hopes of viewing my divx movies I currently have on my Macbook on it.  I know I can stream directly to the PS3 and I will deal with that in time.  However every time I transfer a movie to a usb stick and insert it in the PS3, the PS3 shows the stick as empty.
    Is there a program or file I need to have to make these viewable?

    12Grain, simple solution.  As long as your videos are in a compatible format for the PS3 you can get them to play off your FAT32 formatted USB.  Go the Video menu on PS3, highlight your USB stick, press the TRIANGLE button, toggle Display All, and you'll see all your videos.

    If not why option available
    Thanks!

    What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
    Best of luck.
