Using iOS 4

How to set up and use Personal Hotspot, a feature of the iOS that lets iPhones share their cellular data connections with other nearby devices.
Find My iPhone used to be part of Apple's MobileMe subscription service but, with the introduction of iOS 4.2, it's now free to all iPhone 4, 4th generation iPod touch, and iPad users running iOS 4.2 Now that it's free, if you're not already using another service to track a lost or stolen iPhone, all iOS 4.2 users should set up Find My iPhone.
With the introduction of iOS 4, you can now organize your apps into folders. Folders allow you to reduce clutter on your iPhone's screen and group similar apps together. This article helps you learn how to create, name, and edit folders.

With the introduction of AT&T’s new iPad and iPhone data plans, and the removal of the unlimited plan for new customers, it’s more important than ever before to know how to check your iPad 3G and iPhone data plan usage each month. Not keeping track of it could result in overage charges on your monthly bill.
I'm excited that AT&T has allowed iPhone tethering (finally!), but I know they also recently changed their data plans. I've got the original unlimited iPhone data plan, which seems perfect for tethering, but can I keep the unlimited plan if I have tethering?
With the introduction of folders in iOS 4, you can now organize your iPhone apps into handy, space-saving collections. But that leads to a question: how many apps and folders can you have on the iPhone at one time?
In versions of iOS prior to 4.0, very few apps could run in the background, i.e. run at the same time as other apps. That changed in iOS 4. Now, a number of types of apps can run in the background while users enjoy other apps. So, what type of apps can run in the background?
Until the release of iOS 4, the iPhone could – with a very few exceptions – only run one app at a time. Now, though, iPhone running iOS 4 can take advantage of multitasking and run multiple apps at once. Or can they? Despite the hype about the introduction of iPhone multitasking, this isn’t the multitasking we’re used to.
The FaceTime video callng feature is one of the flashiest and most exciting features on the iPhone 4/iOS 4 platform. But the FaceTime icon doesn’t always show up when you place a call. Why not?
Is the little battery icon in the top right corner of your iPhone not a clear enough indicator of how much juice your battery has left? If so, here’s a trick for getting easier-to-understand information.
Now that tethering is available, it's time to learn how to use it. This tutorial will take U.S. iPhone owners through how to add the feature to your AT&T account, configure tethering on your iPhone, and how to get online using it.
Frequently asked questions about iPhone tethering, including what it is, how to set it up, and how to use it.
Apple's said that the iPhone 4 and 3GS will get the full benefit of the new software, while the 3G will only get some features that are part of iOS 4. If you're an iPhone 3G owner, the decision on whether to upgrade or not may be driven by what features you get, and how important they are to you.
While the iPhone 3G can be upgraded to run iOS 4, there have been numerous reports of difficulties with the upgrade.
Owners of the iPhone 3G aren’t left out of the fun when it comes to upgrading to iOS 4. But, given that there are some drawbacks, many people are asking whether they should upgrade their phone to iOS 4.
Since all iPhones have phone numbers associated with them, making video calls from phone to phone makes sense. But the iPod touch doesn't have a phone number attached to it, so you have to create a FaceTime account to be able to place FaceTime calls to other iPod touches or iPhone 4s.
With the introduction of iOS 4.2, Apple made its Find my iPhone service--which tracks the location of lost or stolen iOS devices and lets users lock/erase them remotely--free. But it's not free to all users who can run iOS 4.2. So, the question is, what devices is Find My iPhone free on?
We all hope to never need this article since, if we do, it means there's a good chance that our iPhone (or iPod touch or iPad) has been stolen. If it has been, though, and if you configured it to use Find My iPhone before it was stolen, you may be able to get it back--or at least prevent the thief from getting at your personal data.
