The personal hotspot has disappeared off my phone?

Anyone have a similar problem with the personal hotspot disappearing from settings menu?

Personal Hotspot is a carrier feature. If you restore the phone, it might take a while before it is available again.
Contact your carrier for more info and have a look at this article:
iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot and iOS: Understanding Personal Hotspot

    What phone company do you use. There needs to be more information about what is exactly going wrong. Becasue if you are in the USA then the hotspot feature can be turned off and on by the carrier, Such as what Verizon does, if you do not pay for the feature. If that is not the issue then there would have to be a software problem, which there are a few solutions to. One being take it to the apple store and letting them fix it, if it is not an issue with your phone company

    Has anyone faced a problem like this!!!

    No. If you go Settings App > General > Reset > "Erase All Content and Settings", you will have the same iOS that was on the iPhone when you tapped the Erase button. If you believe your iPhone is Jailbroken, then this will not work. If you use iTunes on computer, this will put iPhone to current iOS which is iOS 7.0.2

  • HT1766 my app store has disappeared off my phone - how do I restore it?

    my app store has disappeared off my phone - how do I restore it?
    think my son deleted it

    The App Store is a native iOS app and cannot be deleted. It can, however, be moved to different folders or home pages. Check all of your home pages and/or folders. You can also do a search of the phone, and it it resides in a folder, you will see the name of the folder to the right of the app in search.
    You can also do a reset of the phone, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If this still does not seem to help you find the app, then go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • The candy crunch icon disappeared off my phone the other day. I try to redownload it through the App Store, but it doesn't give me the option. Will only let me open it and I can resume play. What's going on?  All other apps still there.

    The candy crunch icon has disappeared from my phone. I went to the App Store and pull it back up and it doesn't give me the option to install it, just open. When I do, it takes to my game where I left off. So my game is still there, but I can't install it on my phone.

    Hey PlayerPS,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the application you are looking for is indeed still on your iPhone. You can confirm this by searching in the Spotlight Search for this application. It may have accidentally been moved to a folder, or an additional Home screen:

    i used it yesterday, I haven't even turned off or charged my phone since then? it's usually always on my settings but when I went to go use it today it just wasn't there.. help??

    First, try a Reset: Hold down the home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
    If it does not return contact your cell provider.

    From the middle of the screen swipe down. This is Spotlight. Enter the name, App Store, and it will show in the list with the folder it's in to the right. Either run it from there or pull it out of that folder.

    Hello Todd:
    I had this very same problem when trying to activate iMessage and Facetime on my iPad. When I signed into my account, I actually wasn't even presented with the option of a phone number - notwithstanding the fact that I was contacting others (and being reached by others) by my phone number on my iPhone. Having both the iPad and the iPhone on, I kept trying to turn off and on both iMessage and Facebook in Settings on both my iPad and iPhone, hoping that that they would eventually sync. But this proposed solution by others was unsuccessful for me.
    Then, I found out what the problem was: When my iPhone was activated, it automatically registered my phone number for contact purposes. I was using iMessage on my iPhone for quite some time without actually being signed into my Apple ID account. When another device - such as an iPad or iPod - is being used for iMessage or Facebook, you are prompted to sign into your Apple account, using your username and password. These two devices will not register your phone number as an option for contact unless your iPhone is signed into your Apple account as well. In other words: your phone number will not be synced.
    Go into your "Settings" on your iPhone and click on "Messages". Scroll down and click on "Send & Receive" (which should be followed by your phone number). On the next page, you will be able to determine whether or not your iPhone is using the Apple ID for messaging purposes. (Note: This information applies for Facetime as well.) If it is using your Apple ID for messaging, than at the top, you will see "Apple ID: <your particular e-mail account>" in Blue text. However, if you are not using your Apple ID for messaging, than you will see the words: "Use your Apple ID for message". Even though below this you will see your phone number checked as the contact source, you will want to click the tab that says, "Use your Apple ID for message". Sign into your account (just as you must sign in for iMessage on your other devices), and just choose your phone number as the "Send & Receive" contact. (The option of the e-mail will be there too, but you don't have to check it. And later on, you can delete it as an option.)
    Now that all of your devices are signed in using your Apple ID, the other devices should register your phone number as a choice. It may take a little while, however. What I did was sign out of iMessage on my iPad, and then sign in again. If the option didn't appear, I just went back and signed in again, and kept doing this until the option for the phone number appeared.
    Again, this will work for Facetime as well. The solution is to sync your iPhone account with the other devices by using your Apple ID for messaging (and Facetime) purposes.
    I hope that this works for you, Todd!   ~ Brian

  • Is it possible to use the personal hotspot on my phone while in airplane mode?

    I have the Personal Hotspot on my phone and was wondering if while in the air (when my phone is on Airplane Mode) I could use it for wifi for my MacBook Pro.
    Thanks!
    -AS

    To simplify Personal Hotspot, the phone needs data coming in (via cellular) to push it out (via wifi) to your MBP.  As wjosten said, with Airplane Mode on, all radios are off so no cellular or wifi functions will work.
