Windows iPhone tether stopped working (Win7 64-bit)

Have an iPhone 5S on Canada's Rogers network. Tethering was working on my desktop (Win7 x64) a month ago. Needed to move away desktop and find tethering no longer working. I've run a temporary cable to ensure latest iTunes, and ability to download any iPhone drivers needed, but even with temporary access to internet I can't get iPhone to provide network services.
iTunes is latest version as of 2015-02-24 (sorry I can't find mechanism to determine version don't see help option as Apple suggests).
All Windows updates installed.
Am used to seeing iPhone appear along side LAN Network in Control Panel / Network and Internet / Network Connections ...whenever tethering is on and iTunes running. Not any more.
I've plugged my iPhone into another PC running Windows 7 and it tethers fine. That machine is lacking Windows updates, and might not be latest iTunes. But it does confirm that my carrier is not the issue.
If a particular update has been identified as trouble (if that's even it) could someone let me know. If I figure it out myself I'll post here too, or whatever it is. But mostly wondering if just me, or if this issue is suddenly appearing for many people.

i also have an issue with photodownloader using win7 64bit
where i am unable to use the custom fields for naming.
it all used to work just fine. it possibly went in fault mode after i loaded
elements 8 that came with my wacom, but unable to prove that.
elements is now removed and the fault is still there.

"Windows Explorer Has Stopped Working" Error Message Loop upon Startup of WIndows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

Ok I have a HP Touchsmart 6000 running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS. It is my 74 year old mothers computer and about 3 months ago it started acting up. First thing that happened was the internal DVD Burner started working intermitently, recognizing
her QuickBooks backup DVD files occasionally. I got her a new internal DVD burner and it worked for a while. during that time on Startup Help and Support would all of a sudden popup right away. Then recently Adobe Acrobat would
launch a PDF file about Flash and keep opening multiple instances of it. Now her new DVD doesnt work again and on startup at the windows desktop she gets an error "Windows Explorer has Stopped Working". No matter what I click the error
keeps looping. No program has been opened that causes it to crash because the error happens immediately and keeps repeating. I have tried to boot to Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking and have tried System Restore to no avail.
I have ran Malwarebytes Antivirus, Malwarebytes AntiExploit, AntiRootkit as well as Combofix. I have run the AntiMalware software from Microsoft and have updated all the drivers for the HP system. To no succcess.
At one point the system did load and an error came up JAN2OSD failed to start due to missing ACPI or something like that. For that brief moment Explorer stopped crashing. When I finished updating driverss though the error came back.
Please Help as she is about to cry and no one wants to make a 74 year old woman cry.:)
Thanks,
Jeff

Windows 7 - browser stops working still connected

As the title says Windows 7, browser stops working after some time passes.
This effects IE and Chrome. I can still ping www.google.com or it's IP address. (all other computers on the network are fine)
I've used both the wired and wireless connection without the same results.
I reboot and it works, I walk away from the work station and then boom no browsing.
I've turned off the firewall, released and renewed the IP, netsh winsock reset none off this worked.
I've gone into internet options and ensure that no "proxy' boxes are checked.
I've uninstalled the network card drives and restarted the machine.
I've ran Malwarebytes (no infections), ccleaner to check for registry problems. Nothing there.
I've disabled the power saving options and uncheck "let windows turn this device off"
I've also ran Norton and Mcgafee uninstallers just be sure there aren't any residue from those installed.
No bittorrent clients
So I'm online but can't browse on this one computer? what's the deal please Help!

ctrl+alt+del to display the tasksmanager...Processes tab,
any google processes running? googletoolbarupdater.exe (x86 or x64)?
any other suspicious/unknown processes running? see why not to use ccleaner on win7 machines http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-971768.html spybot S&D installed? turn off 'Teatimer' Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all
zones to default".... there are security zone settings for meta refresh. running IE in noAddons mode is the first test (close all open IE windows first, if using IE8 reboot your computer to clear any hidden IE crash recovery processes or use the taskmanager
to kill any orphaned IE processes) Start>Control Panel>Sharing and Networking>run the diagnose connection problems tool to diagnose network connection issues. IE9....f12 to display the developer tool>Networking tab, click "Start Capturing"..... to trace network
requests and responses. IE8 and earlier.... download fiddler from http://fiddlertool.com HTH

Windows 7 Error Message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error.... Followed by Windows Explorer Has Stopped Working

I am running a system that is not quite 6 months old, which is loaded with Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit.
The error message that I get is as follows: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. Runtime error! Program C:\windows\Explorer.exe. This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the
application's support team for more information.
Once I respond to that message, I get a message that says "Windows Explorer has stopped working. Then I get "Windows Explorer is re-starting"
I don't know if the next event is related - today, immediately after getting the message above, I got a pop-up that said "An update to Adobe Flash Player is available" - and I am given the option of installing it or not. Today, I did not install
the update - although I recall having accepted this update in the past (again, I don't know if the two situations always occur together).
Is there some help I can be provided to correct this problem? I have looked at several related topics in this database, but have not found anything that seems to directly relate to my question.
Thanks! Mark

Hi,
Did you try to reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
Package (x86) to check this issue?
What about to boot the computer in safe mode and Clean Boot to test this issue?

Windows media player stop working after upgraded from firefox 6.02 to Firefox 7.01 yesterday.

windows media player stop working after upgraded from Firefox 6.02 to Firefox 7.01 yesterday.
the plugin for win media player is already installed and working fine in FF 6.02 before upgrade. i have Google this issue without any result so far. so i reinstalled the old version 6.02, until fix is found.
anyone has the similar issue with Firefox 7.01 in Win 7 32 bit ?

The issue was not with FF 7.01. VLC player version 1.11.1 is conflicting with windows media player when FF 7.01 tries to play media files! Which was not happening before in FF 6.02.
VLC and plugin media player need to be uninstalled first, then uninstalled FF 6.02. Install FF 7.01 and then win plugin media player again.

ITunes not working on my computer each time open iTunes appear a window " iTunes has stopped working close the program "

Hi, I have a problem with iTunes on my computer each time when try open iTunes appear a window " iTunes has stopped working... close a program " someone can help me how fix it.

See HT203206: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

After upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4, syncing of my calendar with my iPhone 4S stopped working.

After upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4, syncing of my calendar with my iPhone 4S stopped working. Music and Apps do sync as normal, but the calendar does not sync anymore.
Anyone who knows what to do?
Thanks!
System: 2013 MacBook Air, OS 10.9.1
iTunes: 11.1.4 (62)
iPhone 4S, 7.0.4
Syncing via USB.

Hi Lyssa! Many thanks for your answer!
I had my suspicions about something like that. Apparently Apple wants to have FULL CONTROL of its users lives. I have been using Apple products since the late 80’s and I, so far, still do.
I find it a bit funny but mostly stupid that Apple has removed the syncing function between iPhone and Mac. So, even if you are a ’loyal’ Apple user, you now have to publish your whole life on iCloud if you want to copy your calendar and contacts to your OWN iPhone from your computer/vice versa, because that is what this is all about. Otherwise, you can’t sync between the iPhone and your computer, even if you are loyal to Apple, using both their laptop and their phone.
I do not want to do that and therefore I now have decided to leave the Apple platform for good. So, next time I choose a computer, a phone etc, it will not be an Apple product. Goodbye Apple!
Many thanks again, Lyssa. Have a nice day!

IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:
http://techglobex.blogspot.com/2012/06/downgrade-from-ios-6-beta-firmware-to.htm l
That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
Well hope that will work for you like it did for me

I have a problem with my iPhone 5 stopped working the sleep / power and simultaneously refused to obey the HOME button. I can not use either one or the other. I can not enable or disable the device, display lights up when you plug the charger. same display works fine as it is surprising. or maybe someone knows what is the reason for this? is there any way to solve this problem?

More than likely its a hardware issue, I have never encountered such a problem and best bet is to just go get it replaced. If you have insurance on your device apple will replace it as long as there was no water damage, if you dont have insurance they will charge $200 more or less. Hope you get it fixed

My iPhone 5 stopped working with my 2015 Subaru Outback after the iOS 8.1.3 update

My iPhone 5 stopped working with the USB connector on my 2015 Subaru Outback. The phone will still charge, but the message is something like "this iPhone will not work with this accessory". Is there a fix being made? I saw others post with issues with the latest update. It worked fine with the prior iOS version 8.1.2

Hello bballfan85,
It sounds like your getting an error message that the iPhone isn't going to work with your Subaru all of a sudden over USB. I would use these troubleshooting steps from this article, named:
If you need help with iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch accessories
Update your software
Install the latest version of iOS. You can see which version is on your iPhone by going to the About screen.Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
Try a different device
Make sure the issue is with the accessory, if possible. Always use an identical or similar, compatible device with the accessory you're troubleshooting.
If there's static coming from the left audio channel when you use headphones, try connecting the headphones to a similar device.
If the device isn't syncing when connected to the dock, connect it directly to the computer using the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or try another USB port.
If you're using Lightning to 30-pin Adapter in a connection chain, try using the same adapter on a similar or identical device.
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
These steps will help you troubleshoot the iPhone side of the equation.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

My iPhone just stopped working. I've tried charging it and turning it on and nothing works.

Hello, my iPhone recently stopped working - I tried plugging it up to charge and that hasn't worked. I even took it out of the case. It still won't turn on. Is there any solutions?

See Here for > Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
Try this First... No Data will be Lost...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
