Can I print wirelessly using my iPhone to a printer that I have connected to a time capsule?
I have a printer connected via USB port on the time capsule, and I have the printer shared throughout the network. The printer is not an ePrint model. Since the printer is in my network, can I use my iphone or ipad to print documents?
If you have a Mac running on the network, try Printopia.
There is a free trial, so you will know if will work before you buy. There are other apps that can do this as well, but I cannot offer a specific recommendation.

Restarting my iPad didn't work and I can't delete the notes app, since it's one that came with the iPad (I'd lose all my notes that way, anyway). Someone mentioned once that when they synced it with their laptop their notes started working again, but I'd never backed it up to my laptop before, only iCloud.
This answer from beppolina (https://discussions.apple.com/message/23842867#23842867)
Fixed it -- go to Settings - General - Reset and select "Reset All Settings." Still annoying, because now you have to go back and re-do all of the ways you customized your settings, but at least Notes is back.
Now if only they'd fix this major "connect to itunes to use push notifications" alert bug that's a constant irritant in some apps and disables others (Dropbox, I'm looking at you) completely. -
I have an account and I have to use i tunes first, of course i dont have the choice of "none". Why it have to be so complicated to use my phone?
Did you follow, exactly, the instructions on the HT2534 page that you posted from when you created the account ? When I tried the instructions earlier today I was able to create a new account with 'none' as its payment method. If you don't use those instructions when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If you are being prompted to review the account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so via your computer's iTunes without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
If it doesn't then you will either need to enter credit card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them) or you will need to create a new account, and this time use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

My ipad 2 photos has only 3 icons, i dont have faces and events icon, and how can i make an album.. Ive got 800 photos in one album..
I would add to King Penguin's comment and say that Places also only works with photos that are tagged with geographical information (knows as geotagging to us photographers). I've done this with my photos and it's really cool. You basically tap the Place tab in Photos and a map of the world is displayed with pins showing the areas of where the photos were taken. Touch on a pin and you get the photos associated with that area. Neat-o!

I keep getting the message MobileMe has been discontinued - iPhoto willmove albums you have published to MobileMe Gallery. . . but I have not knowingly published any photos to MobileMe. How can I get this message to stop. It's getting annoying.
Also, how can I remove duplicate photos in an album without doing it manually?
Thanks!When the prompt pops up next time you start iPhoto select Learn more. Then click on iPhoto preferences and select the Accounts tab. Delete your MM account and the quit iPhoto. Next time you open iPhoto the problem should be eliminated.

I have lost my Iphone4 about 1 month ago in when i was in Mongolia. I use my apple ID for both my ipod and Iphone, but still now i am receiving some pictures and other info-s from my lost phone about that person who took mine. How can i solve this problem? Do you think i need to contact that person and negotiate? or Should i just leave this case and wait for next IPhone 5? One terrible thing is that i can't find my serial number. Any suggestions?

sir, I have lost my iphone4 yesterday. Before my warranty expires I bought a new piece in exchange with old one die to so software prob. I have imei number of my old phone but didn't remember new ones.How could I retrieve IMEI no. of my new one to trace it.
You can't use the IMEI number for tracking it, you can only potentially do that if you had Find My iPhone enabled on it - if you did then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com or the Find My iPhone app on another iOS device.
For the IMEI number, do you have you got the phone's box or have a backup of the phone on your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4061 ?
If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc. -
Dear Apple,
I have an iPhone 4 32GB (black), i bought from softbank, japan. Now, I have recently finished a graduate and i'll comeback home in Laos. But i can't continue to use my iphone.
Could you please help me to unlock my phone so I can use it with other carrier Sims. I would appreciate it.
Please let me know if you could help me out. Thanks again.
<Edited by Host>Like ckuan said, Apple does not unlock iPhone; your carrier does, provided that the carrier offers this service.
Unfortunately, SoftBank does not offer authorized unlocking of iPhone.
Your best option is to sell this phone and buy another iPhone from the carrier of your choice or better buy a factory unlocked iPhone so you would be able to use it with any compatible GSM carrier around the world. -
I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.
Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

I can't seem to use the balance left in my i-tunes account without re-entering the code from the original i-tunes gift card. I no longer have the card. How can I purchase music using the balance without the card?
the code from the original i-tunes gift card is not required again once redeemed.

I have an iPhone and when I got it, I had a Toshiba laptop. Now I have a MacBook Pro, but when I try to wi-fi sync my iphone and new computer, it doesn't work because on my iphone it is still trying to sync with my old computer. How I can fix this?
Move the content from the old computer to the new computer.
Sync the iPhone via cable to the new computer and enable Wi-Fi syncing.
It should now be possible to sync via Wi-Fi to the new computer. -
