I performed an Update of iTunes to 12.3 + XCODE to 7.0.

Immediately after this update the Network unit of MBP stopped "see" the iPad connected via USB - there is no way to surf the Internet via this route: in the Networks window the iPAD is shown as "not connected". The Ipad still charges via USB and is visible in iTunes.

I did reset of prefs on iPad as well as restarted both devices. Of course, the Hotspot is open and discoverable. I tried both USB ports. The cable is original and has not any damages. I assume the issue is within the last update.

I still do not update to iOS9 though.

Any ideas how to solve the issue would be highly appreciated.

I had the same problem with the personal hotspot via usb on my iPhone. I downloaded the version of iTunes from Apple.com and installed it. So far it seems to have corrected the problem. I guess something must have gone wrong with the iTunes update that was posted to the Mac App Store.

I hope this helps

I wish you luck. Let me know if it works for you.
Unfortunately did not work for me. I do not even know now how to "discover" an iPad as an USB-modem - I deleted it from the devices list in networking devices and now it does not appear at all...
Strange issue...
