I have an iMac, connected to the Internet via Ethernet, and an iPhone 4. I would like to share the iMac's Internet connection to my iPhone via the USB Cable (because my wife dreams of a wifi-less household).  I've set up Internet Sharing, specifying "sharing from: Ethernet  via: USB IPhone", but when I test, the iPhone cannot connect to the Internet. Is there something I need to activate on the iPhone?   iMac, mac os x version: Mountain Lion, 10.8.4 iPhone 4, IOS Version: 6.1

I forgot my iPhone 5 passcode when I was changing the code. A window appeared on the device screen saying that iPhone is disabled.  I have Apple ID and password for it. After signing in to iCloud I have erased the device in order to remove the passcode from my iPhone but it still says that device will be erased when device will connect to internet. What would i have to do?

I've previously connected to a WiFi network on my iPhone but I have no way of finding out the password. Is there any way to recover the password after resetting my device to view saved WiFi passwords on the iPhone?

I have purchased a TP-LINK TL-WN823N (EU) V2.0 device, which is a USB device that should work as a Network Interface Card, allowing me to connect my computer to wireless networks. Unfortunately, I am unable to find any wireless networks using this device using either wicd or network-manager (no networks appear in the list of networks supplied by either application).  A CD came with the device claiming "Linux support". The CD contained a URL to a corrupted archive file for downloading installation resources. I try to mask my immense frustration.  Here is the additional dmesg output I receive when I connect the device to my computer (similar content is present when I boot the computer with the device connected):  [17096.009912] usb 2-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci [17096.103501] usb 2-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=2357, idProduct=0109 [17096.103513] usb 2-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [17096.103527] usb 2-1.2: Product: 802.11n NIC [17096.103529] usb 2-1.2: Manufacturer: Realtek [17096.103530] usb 2-1.2: SerialNumber: 00e04c000001   This is my lsusb, where the offending device corresponds to Bus 002 Device 004:  Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0a5c:5800 Broadcom Corp.

Is it possible to create this network interface?   Thanks for reading.

I'm not sure if I have an issue or if what I am seeing is by Apple-design.  I have an iPad Pro (11.4) that I have the Personal Hotspot switched on.     My iPad Pro is active and screen on. I connect my iPhoneX (11.4) to the iPad Hotspot. Everything works fine.  I sat working on laptop and then the iPhone X and iPad screen locked.  After X minutes I then unlock iPhone to check email etc..  The iPhone X has disconnected from the hotspot and is back to using the cellular plan on my iPhone.  If I go to Settings -> Wi-Fi then my iPad is not listed.  To make the hotspot reconnect I have to go back to my iPad and toggle the Personal HotSpot switch (On -> Off -> On).   Is this by design or not?  Should the iPhone remain connected if the devices screen lock?

I would like to remove my Raspberry Pi from my iPhone 8 (running iOS 11.2.1) as a connected bluetooth device.  Normally, I would go into my Settings -> Bluetooth and select the Info button (a small blue circled "i") to show the "Disconnect" and "Forget Device" dialogs:    Unfortunately, iOS does not give me this option for my device. The bluetooth device list does not contain an "i" for the item, and there is seemingly no other way to disconnect.    How do I unpair this device if there is no button to trigger to the unpair prompt?  Due to work restrictions I cannot completely reset the device.

I had an iPhone on loan from a friend to try it out and now I need to give it back. How do I make sure that everything is erased from it? SMS, Calendar, Phone Logs, contacts?

I am trying to connect my Galaxy Tab to the Internet through an ad-hoc network made via my PC. The PC ad-hoc settings are fine because I can use it from my iPhone and other devices.

My iPhone 5 won't boot anymore and when I plug it in my MacBook, it goes to recovery mode (cable logo => iTunes logo).  So I tried to restore it using iTunes but I keep getting this error    Any idea how to fix it?  While it was plugged in I tried holding power + home, it reboots the device and goes back to recovery mode and then any restore attempt results in a 2001 error as well. When it's not plugged in nothing will make it boot.

My sister dropped her iPhone into water and made the fatal mistake of turning it on just a few hours later, thinking it was already dry. I put it into a bag with rice for days. She had taken a lot pictures within the last few weeks but neither connected it to her PC nor is she using iCloud/Photostream, so we wanted to save the pictures somehow.  The problem is, the phone only turned on when connected to a power socket - and only in the inital setup mode ("connect to itunes"). And even then it would restart after about half a minute.  Assuming the battery got fried, I ordered a new one from iFixit (the phone's out of warranty since a long time) and replaced it; of course I also cleaned the logic board in the process. Though I couldn't see any corrosion despite the water indicators being pink. The only difference now is that when connected to a PC, the Apple logo appears, but the phone reboots infinitely after several seconds.   iTunes recognized it when entering DFU mode, but shows no additional data besides "iPhone" (capacity, iOS version, serial number).  Getting the phone to work again is secondary, we just want to save the pictures. Is there any way to get my data including all the pictures from iPhone?

I've been struggling for a while on this, strange set of circumstances.  I have a Amazon FireTV box that I cannot connect as university wireless does not support it.  I'm looking for a way to set up Internet from my MacBook pro (the uni WiFi won't allow Internet sharing however - and no Ethernet in my room!).  The only way i've found is to share my iPhone's 4G but I don't want to do that because of data usage.  Any way I can fix this?   I have an iPhone, iPad, Macbook Pro, HDMI cables, USB cables but not WiFi that I'm allowed to share!   Anything I can buy to make this work?

I've a phone with Android and I use Ubuntu in my PC. The thing is that I can connect my phone through USB and Ubuntu can read it, I mean, I can see the files and stuff, but that's it.  I can't transfer files without broking them, can't view photos either, and all the things that I can do with Windows are gone when using Ubuntu or any Linux distro.  Maybe I'm missing drivers, the phone is Samsung.  Can anyone help me?  I've search a lot but couldn't find a solution.  Thanks.

Hi I am new to Ubuntu and Linux. As I am developing a WiFi product, I want to capture the WiFi traffic wirelessly with Wireshark. Having some searching in the web, I know that I can do that with a USB WiFi adapter and Ubuntu. Then I can run the Wireshark in real monitor/promiscuous mode.  Ok so I bought a TP-Link TP-WN722NC (I want to buy the TP-WN722N at first, but the store only has this model). Also I found a laptop and installed the Ubuntu 14.04.1. Then I noticed that I need a driver for this adaptor. So I try to follow the blog post  to install the driver ath9k_htc but seems it was not successful.  Then I downloaded the backports 3.16-1 by running these two commands:  wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.16/backports-3.16-1.tar.gz tar xvf compat-wireless-2.6.38.2-2.tar.bz2   However, after that point do not know what should I do. Could you help guide me to install the correct driver?

I'm mostly curious, but why aren't network interfaces in /dev? Are there any other kinds of devices that aren't represented as a node under /dev?

Does iOS support a built-in firewall like macOS does? I don't see anything about it in Settings.
