iPad USB tethering problems
Hello,
I have a problem that is driving me crazy.
I can tether my Macbook to my iPad through WiFi or Bluetooth but not through USB. Thethering through an iPhone USB doesn't give any problems.
I am running Os X 10.8.4 and on the iPad iOs 6.1.2 (it's an iPad 4th generation)
When I connect the MacBook to the iPad through an usb cable I get the personal Hotspot blue bar telling that I have one connection. On the Mac side though in "network preferences" I get a yellow "iPad USB" with a no IP address. That is making me think that the problem is with the iPad not releasing an IP address to the Macbook.
Any idea on how I can troubleshoot this problem? I already tried to reinstall iTunes (version 11.0.4) but this didn't solve the problem.
Cheers
Luca
