Using iphone 4s with IOS6....personal hotspot disappeared.

Resetting network does not work.  Turning cellular data off/on does not work.  Anyone have any knowledge of how to fix this?

After receiving NO help from ATT, which said it was Apple's problem, and NO help from Apple, which said it was ATT; the resulting option was to restore.  Besides being a pain in the a$$, it did not work.  I am convinced this is an ATT issue.

    Depends on your carrier and data plan.
    With ATT in the US for example, you can FaceTime via ATT's cellular network if you have a shared data plan only.

  • Using iPhone 6 as a personal hotspot

    I am using my iPhone 6 as a personal hotspot on a 4G connection (O2) and I am connecting with a MacBook Pro with Maverick. When I test the download speed on the mac it gives speeds of 30Mbps or greater yet all website images are low resolution as a default and when using BBC iplayer and Channel 4 On Demand the video streaming appears much slower than this speed would suggest. However if I use youtube the video streaming is very good. Any ideas what is going on?

    It depends. My experience is that I get somewhat better 3G reception from my iPad than from my iPhone 4. The iPad extra size allows for more flexibility in antenna design. Others my have different experience.
    2 other factors to bear in mind:
    - Using the phone as hotspot stops you dealing with phone calls while you're surfing with the iPad
    - There's a battery life penalty on the iPhone for using the hotspot function

  • Has anyone else had issues with Verizon Personal Hotspot disappearing?

    My Verizon Personal Hotspot has disappeared for the second time in three weeks.  I talked to Verizon and they claim it is an Apple issue.  Have anyone else had this problem?  If so, how did you fix it?  Thanks!

    Credits from promotions do expire, and no notice is given. It's up to the company delivering the promotion to post the expiration date, which all the ones I have seen did, though sometimes they buried it in the "fine print". Check with the promoting company, or post what promotion issued the credits and perhaps someone here can confirm whether or not the credits have expired.

  • I have the iPhone 4, with the personal hotspot, but I have keep rebooting my phone to connect to my iPad, or computer, why?

    Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

    No clue as you've provided no details of what specifically occurs that requires the reboot.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved or provide some details of the issues so we can offer more relevant troubleshooting.

  • I have a 2GB data plan with my iphone 5c.  If I purchase a new tablet can I use the phone as a personal hotspot for the tablet without any additional costs?

        dianneb, great question and thanks for the help Weth. The good news is if you're on More Everything the mobile hotspot would be apart of your plan just as Weth mentioned. What you just want to keep in mind is that the usage from the tablet while connected to the hotspot would take from your current plan allowance. Hope this helps!

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends 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.

  • My Apps won't update on my iPhone 4 with iOS6

    I strated to updated all my Apps, through the App Store App on my phone - usually it would do this via the wifi slowly app by app.  But not this time.  It just said they were all waiting!
    So I updated all the Apps in my itunes on my PC, but they won't update on my iphone (4) with iOS6. 
    During the sync it says it is installing on all of the Apps that need updates (now about 20 as have been trying for days to sort out) get half way through the 'installing process' and then when the sync has 'finished' all the updating apps are half way through and just stop.
    Have tried to delete apps on handset in order to reload but won't let me, as it says they are all waiting.....
    Help this is driving me mad and I cant use things like my dropbox app which I need for work as it is waiting to update.....
    A message pops up saying: Unable to Dowmload Applications  'Dropbox and 18 other applications could not be installed at this time.

    Not sure.
    Perhaps you can explain the symptoms? What is happening on your phone.

  • I am using IPhone 5 with osi8.1.

    I am using IPhone 5 with osi8.1.
    My contacts are not showing phone numbers
      (home and IPhone).  However, to the right of
      Where the phone number should be – is a
      facetime icon and to the right of that is a phone icon.
      If I touch either icon the phone successfully connects a call to
    the person I am calling.   From this, it seems to me that
    The iphone # is in the contacts and is just not being displayed.
      Does anyone know what I am doing wrong.  Prior to ios
    8.1 the Numbers were displayed in the contacts.
      Thanks

    Can you post a screen shot of what you are seeing?
    I just looked in my contacts - when I open up a contact - the phone number(s) is(are) displayed on the left under the name and title information
    What you are describing is what I see when I tap on "Details" in my message app - it shows just the name with the phone and FaceTime icon along with an "i"

  • Unable to Play Music on iPhone 5 with iOS6

    Hello,
    Recently, I'm unable to play any of my music on my iPhone 5 with iOS6.
    Symptoms:
    When I access the Music app, my listing of music starts scrolling rapidly. I have no control to stop it. Then it will stop scrolling. When I select a song to play, the app goes to the song screen, but then pops right back to the song listing screen.
    Have a look at the video at the link below to see exactly what is happening.
    I have not tried any troubleshooting, such as restores. I have tried hard setting the iPhone to no avail. Seems I may have to restore or rebuild from scratch to fix.
    Anyone else seeing this happen?

    Hello lakshya.mangla,
    It sounds like your iPhone is stuck on the lock screen.  I found an article that provides steps you can take when locked out of your iPhone:
