Her longtime affair with writing with an interest in the cybersecurity industry, combined with her IT degree, has contributed to experience several aspects of security suite industry such as blogging at norton.com/setup.

The users of iPad or iPhone experiencing issues of the personal hotspot are not alone as most people are facing the same problems. Moreover, Apple seems to quite aware of the issue, but the company is not saying anything that when the fix for the issue will come. Personal Hotspots become more useful when the users are finding any issue while using the Wi-Fi which is nearby to them. In such circumstances, when the users felt concerned while using a close-by Wi-Fi, then instead of moving to another network or fixing the issue of Wi-Fi, the phone users can opt to share the data connection of their phone with some other device like a laptop. The feature of the personal hotspot is not exclusive to the only iOS as the Android users also make the use of a similar ability. Still, more commonly, the feature is known as tethering.

But, the issues related to the personal hotspot are quite prevalent in the devices running iOS13, unlike Android devices. Apple is also aware of the problem which has been revealed in some documents as reported by MacRumors. According to the reports presented by MacRumors, it has been explained that Apple has sent an internal document to its authorized service centers regarding the personal Hotspot issue faced by the users. The company has also advised the service centers to help the users in every possible way if they are coming for getting the solution for the issue. However, the company has not mentioned any time limit to provide the fix regarding the problems of the personal hotspot.

Meanwhile, it has been observed that the issue of personal hotspot is arising in several ways, which is disturbing for the users. Some users are not able to connect their devices to the personal hotspot at all while some others are facing continuous drops in the connections, ultimately resulting in unreliable and inconsistent internet connection.

 No Great timing for the arising of the issue amidst the ongoing health outbreak

The question of the personal hotspot has arrived in such a time when the whole world is facing the health outbreak, which could not be considered significant. Also, it is still not known whether how long the devices have been affected by the issue. It remains to see how long the problem will continue to affect the devices. This is the time when the governments are forcing people to maintain social distancing, and the companies are providing the employees the option to work from home. With more and more people are working from home and so the reliability on the uninterrupted internet connection is increasing every day. Also, the burden on broadband internet is massively rising under such circumstances. At the time, when the demand for uninterrupted mobile data connection is highly increasing, then the usefulness of the shared mobile data will deteriorate if the user could not find it reliable in such circumstances.

However, it is not clear that when the fix for the issue will come but it is expected that the company will provide the repair very soon. Amidst all, while going through the internal document sent to different authorized Apple service centers, the company has advised some temporary fixes for the issue, such as toggling the personal hotspot on and off, which might solve the problem.

The users have always given the option by Apple Music to push the notification about any new music releases from their favorite musicians or artists. However, enabling the push notification for Apple music has never been a reliable way for the people to search out the new music. It seems that Apple has understood the issue and so has introduced several tweaks in the feature. Right now, Apple has rolled out a further modification aiming at bringing the enabled notifications into the app of Apple Music itself. After rolling out the new changes, the users will now become able to get updates of new music albums, extended play, and updates regarding the launch of new videos from their favorite music artists at the top of the “library” in the music application. In simple terms, whenever your favorite artist will release some new music album, you will get the notification instantly if you have enabled the information for that artist in the Apple music library.

The new feature will appear on the splash page within the app of Apple music, but if the users are not able to see the feature, then they can enable it manually by themselves. Here are the steps to do so:-

• The users need to go to the Music app of their iPhone and then open it.
• Further, the users will be required to go to For You option and then tap on it.
• After that, while moving to top at the right, the users will need to click on their Picture profile.
• Now, click on the Notifications option for enabling the notifications regarding new releases.
• At last, you will need to search for Show in Library option.

Before introducing the latest changes, Apple music has enabled the notifications for highlighting the new music releases earlier also, but all was in vain. The earlier announcements were not very reliable and often appeared even after the weeks or days after the release of the new album of the songs. It was quite frustrating for the users who have enabled the notification earlier in the hope of getting the news of the latest releases as soon as possible. In contrast, the users came to know about the new releases after the weeks of music release. However, the company has made several changes before introducing the new feature, but still, it remains to see whether the current changes will serve the interest of the users in the best way. Apart from this new change, there are also some third-party apps which provides similar functionality, including MusicHarbor. The third-party app, MusicHarbor, offers several exciting features allowing you to follow your favorite music artists along with getting the news about new music albums, concerts, etc. Moreover, the users can follow the above mention instructions if they will find any difficulty in getting the notifications. If the features are turned on manually, then they will not expose any difficulty in getting the announcements of new albums and music videos of their favorite artists.

Microsoft recently reorganized the team of Windows and its devices by introducing Panos Panay for the charge of both Microsoft hardware and Windows. Although these are the early days for Panay, we are beginning to get a glimpse of how situations may switch with the Windows OS.

In the first 30 days of the Panay, he had spent a lot of time in learning, observing, listening, and working hard with the Microsoft team to make a visualization for the next era of Windows. He wonders while working closely with the Insiders team and the depth of knowledge and level of dedication they possess. Panay recently posted a new blog post in which he explained his experience of working with the Microsoft extraordinary tech geniuses.

He stated that in order to get the Windows innovations going and carry on to grow, they would need an intelligent, responsible and powerful person to show the way to this exceptionally skilled team to the new level. Thereafter, he officially announced Amanda Langowski as the new head for Windows Insider Program.  

The new leader of Microsoft’s Windows Insider Program Langowski is one of the old hands of the company that posses over 20 years of experience. The projects he had worked on before are Windows beta programs, flighting team, Windows Phone, Windows Mobile, and more. Overall he deserves such a position in the company, and now he will surely make innovations in future projects.

He will soon lead to testing of Windows 10 and then an essential feedback loop of the software. Dona Sarkar initially led this project for the past several years. Sarkar is now leading a new project in the company called Microsoft Developer Relations and is presently serving in the company. However, the former chief of the Insider program, Gabe Aul, left the company last year, and then he continued his career in Facebook’s virtual and augmented reality program as the role of engineer.

As we told you before, Panay intends to make a new era of Windows, and he is presently making a visualization to take the Windows OS to the next level. The project has attempted several methods to tempt developers to Windows over the previous five years, but some attempts were not effective enough. Even the regularity of Windows 10 updates has sometimes been a bit slower during the last 12 months that left testers as well as Windows users doubting for what’s happening.

Now Panay has decided to make certain changes into the operating system, and he will also focus on the desktop versions of Windows 10. He will surely add some of his own styling in the operating system, but he cleared that he is going to make the OS simplified and quick. The Windows 10 OS has clearly improved since its past 5 years of constant development and updates.

However, people are now in quest of a fresh look and feel for the Windows operating system, and it seems minor changes are not enough for them to keep it using. According to the Windows 1 billion users teaser video, it is now apparent the team is planning to make the operating system’s UI more simplified. The Start menu is also going to change significantly, as we saw in the teaser video of the Windows 1 billion user celebration. Let’s see how the next operating system updates going to look and work like.
