I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS 7 but now its not tethering using USB connection. I am using MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5 and iTunes 11.1. Tethering using Wi-Fi is fine.

Ciao

I'm using iPhone 5 with ios7 and Macbookpro with 10.6.8 SnowLeopard.

After updating to iTunes 11.1and ios7 hotspot USB doesn't work anymore, wifi and bluetooth work fine.

Can somebody help me

Thanks

I have the same problem. no success!

Just updated to ios 7.0.2, still broken.

Just another person with the same problem as everyone else with the loss of the USB tether connection to the iphone with itunes 11.1 Guess apple doesn't really test these updates in reality before they automatically update everyone. I've tried all the solutions listed with no success. Don't really care anymore, and any iphone 4(S) users i advise you not to upgrade to ios7 it will practically double all the time to open messages and run apps. Guess, it's the same old addage, 'things will only get worse, before they get better.' The only other thing I have to add is, do any apple techs actually read these posts or just have a good laugh at how messed up everyone is after their latest attempt to upgrade everyone. Surprised no techs post anything on this thread, like 'don't worry we're working on it!' I guess to them no news is good news, so they don't have to come under fire. Good luck Apple. We await your omnipotent update to appear like the soma we need to function, like our morning coffee. Yes, I guess, I've become an iphone junkie too.

I believe this problem has been around for years now. After an iTunes update it’s back to the same old same old. This old fix using “Kext Utility” worked for me on numerous occasions. You might need to reboot.

I am not sure I am right. I have iPhone4, iPad3 and iPhone5 of my wife. Both iPhones have already upgrade to iOS7,last update this morning. And my iPad is still using iOS 5.x. I cannot using USB connect Personal Hotspot from my devices. I think it is probably involve with iTunes rather than the version of iOS. It seems the problem was occurred after I have done updating iTunes.

* I used iOS 7 beta and it's ok since I update iTunes ,then I have tried restore my iPhone to iOS 7.0.2.
** I connect iTunes from my Macbook Pro OSX 10.7.5.

*** I have try it on different of iOS.

**** I don't have issue with Personal Hotspot on WiFi but on Bluetooth,I've never used it.

If anyone has any ideas,please let me know.

Thanks

I am having the same problem. Since updating to iOS7 on iPhone4 tethering with USB on my MacBook Air running Lion no longer works.

Problem solved! Reset network

Went to the local Apple Store with a Genius Bar appointment about this. Problem not solved.

I hope a definitive fix is fast on its way because with the extremely disappointing battery life of iOS/iPhone 5s combo, there is no way I'll do wifi tethering with my laptop. Using OSX 10.6.8, and running the latest iTunes release.

Creating a new account on the portable did nothing good. The iphone is Still not being recognized.

Looking forward to iOS 7.03...

@Macfashion3:This solution is aimed at solving the issue of not being able to tether via WIFI. But the problem people are having is tethering via the usb cable, still unresolved.

Try the "kext utility" fix! It worked for me after USB tethering stopped with the ios 7 upgrade.

Safe to say I am now writing this with a USB tethered iphone 5 connected to a MacBook Pro running OSX 10.6.8 and happy again.

Filed a bug report: 15164102

Thanks, vivox, for filing the bug report. I'm not sure if we can see the updates on the bug report anywhere but I am sure everyone on this thread experiencing the issue would appreciate it very much if you could let us know the response from Apple (when/if it comes).

Same problem here:

--> Personal Hotspot NOT working with USB, but working with WiFi and Bluetooth.

Point is: USB Hotspot is the fastet so Apple! Please fix it!!!

I already lost about 2 hours of my life with trying to fix this on my own...

Macbook Pro

Mac OS X 10.7.5

ITunes 11.1.1

Iphone 4S

IOS 7.0.2

The method provided by DupeyDupe solved all my tethering problem whenever I upgraded the os. It is very useful, hope it can solve your problem too :)
