iphone 4 tethering not working via usb after itunes 10.7 install
Im on os 10.6.8 on 2 machines
I made the mistake of updating to itunes 10.7 on my mac pro. This was before I updated to ios6 on an iphone 4
Clearly apple didnt test itunes 10.7 before releasing it to the public and yet again we are the unpaid software beta testers!
My desktop did not recognise my iphone when plugged into the usb charger/data cable as it did perfectly fine with itunes 10.6.3
I had to connect via bluetooth since I dont have wireless on the mac pro. This works but I prefer to tether with the usb cable.
I think its a lot slower via bluetooth than with the usb cable
I know that the phone isnt affected itself because I left the laptop with itunes 10.6.3 and it sees the phone when plugged into the usb and the internet tethering works fine
This is the case before and after updating to ios6. Updating to ios6 didnt fix the usb tethering problem on my mac pro. And ios6 still tethers fine via usb on my laptop running os 10.6.8 with itunes 10.6.3
Im going to try the kext replacement from the laptop to the mac pro now and see if I can restore the computers ability to see the iphone when plugged in via usb for internet tethering ...
This has really wasted my time and its annoying that apple havent admitted the problem exists or brought out a fix!
