If Apple is so full of geniuses, why can't they come up with a usb cable to connect the iPad to a printer? This would seem like the most intelligent first choice for those of us who are absolutely frustrated with iPad printing functionality.

My sister has an iPad and an HP printer. She cant' print from her iPad even though a genius at the Apple Store sold the combination to her with the idea that it would be easy to do. Instead, I have to go to her place with my MacBook, she sends me an email, and I hook up my laptop to her printer to print what she needs. Why can't the Apple geniuses come up with a USB cable and an OS update to make it easy and NOT SO FRUSTRATING to print from the iPad?
I've been a Mac user for fifteen years but I could not, in good conscience, recommend an iPad to anyone until Apple considers that ease of use does not include regularly getting frustrated with the easiest of tasks.

all printers speak a diffrent "computer language" for a device to understand this language
a driver is required
some devices such a computers come with drivers for a long line of printers and other devices
apple decided that it was better not to include that huge list of drivers as users would then not have
much storage left for media and apps
then apple let printer makers make apps for printing in app store and make printers support airprint

Idea for enhancement: When in the bookmarks menu, how about in each folder adding an choice of "Bookmark Current page in this folder". ie this would appear like the "Open All in Tabs" choice does now. Where soudl I post this idea?

You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

HT5312 This whole security question crap is a hassle. If I wanted to talk to someone one the phone to have some dumb questions reset, I would call them. Why can't they just send it in my dang e-mail. So forget it. I'll just forego the purchase.

Then call iTunes Support and get them reset:

HT1657 For those of us who are technically challanged.

Can I rent/download a movie and later watch it on a plane that does not have WiFi ?

Yes, after you complete the purchase of a rental, the movie will begin downloading. However once you open it you have 24 hours till it goes away. More Helpful Info

HT6147 Why haven't they done a patch for those of us who have not updated and prefer to use iOS 6?

Why haven't they done a patch for those of us who have not updated and prefer to use iOS 6?

Totally agree with Andy. Apple needs to support its users whether or not they decide to update to iOS 7.
The reviews from i Pad 3 owners (like me) is that when they've updated to iOS 7 they've experienced latency and sluggishness. Why would I ruin a perfectly good iPad by updating to iOS 7?
Please let me know where I can find a patch for iOS 6.
Thanks!

What is Apple doing for those iMac owners who failed to have their Seagate HD replaced by April 12, 2013?

What is Apple doing for those iMac owners who failed to have their Seagate HD replaced by April 12, 2013?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you purchased the iMac less than 3 years ago and it has got one of the defective hard disks, Apple will still replace it for free. Make a backup of your files with Time Machine and take your computer to an Apple Store or reseller. A Genius will check if your Mac was purchased less than 3 years ago.
If the computer is older, you will have to pay. Note that if you already have the iMac on April 12th, 2013 and before, and you knew that your iMac had a defective hard disk, you should have taken it even if the hard drive was working correctly

For those of you who have the "Perfect Timing" ringtone from the commercial

I posted this in the plain 'ol phone forum but haven't got a response yet. I hope I get one here.
For those of you who have the ringtone from the iPhone TV commercial -- do you remember what portion of the song (or can you check in iTunes) you used for the actual ringtone? If you could tell me the counter (in seconds and minutes) that you started and ended your tone at, that would be great. I'm trying to get it exactly like the commerical but I don't think I have it just right. Thanks! By the way the song is called "Perfect Timing."

"I downloaded the free version of malwarebytes and ran it when my computer was in safe mode, which found 93 malware "issues" on my computer."
...and you're surprised that you had installation issues with iTunes? This makes me wonder whether others who report problems installing iTunes have computers that are equally infected! For reference, I just checked the logs from the last Malwarebytes scan (I run an automated scan twice a week) on my main iTunes system (on which, like the other iTunes instances I run, never seems to suffer from any installation issues) - zero issues

I'm deaf in one ear and need a stereo-to-mono earbud so I can use my iPod and iPhone. It is not good being able to hear only one channel. Can Apple consider making such a thing for those of use who need such a thing?

I'm not sure which version iPod you have, but I just checked my iPod nano (current generation) and it also has a Mono Audio setting in Settings>General>Accessibility.

Are people who are having prob with iTunes 8.2 & iPhone OS3.0 using Intego?

I am wondering whether people who are having problems with iTunes and iPhone are using Intego's Netbarrier? I couldn't download OS3.0 until I turned off Banner and eventually the whole thing. Is this the cause of my problems? My iPhone is no longer recognized by iTunes 8.2.

I want to withdraw this question as it unfairly associates many problems with this one company and application. The problems are not just related to this software. I apologize to Intego if this appeared accusatory.
I have since found answers to all of the questions posed for the iPhone 3.0 update. Only one was related to Intego and its firewall.
Thanks.

TS1389 This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on the iPod âMac0217âs iPodâ. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?

This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on the iPod “Mac0217’s iPod”. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?
If you do not authorize this computer, 117 songs, including “Der Kommissar”, will be removed from the iPod.
I have authorized the computer but keeps giving me the message above.
I recently had my mother board replaced but my hard drive was spared. Ever since the replaced mother board I been getting this message.

You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.

The system requirements for Mavericks used years of production for the computer requirements. Why can't they use the generational number system?

Office location where Mac Pro is located has a slow internet connection. I downloaded Mavericks installer onto thumbdrive. Attempted to install on a dual 3 core Xenon Mac Pro, model 2,1. After a few hours, I figured out that the error message that was generated by the installer was telling me that my computer doesn't support Mavericks. Do other people get confused with which generation of hardware is supported with software? I understand the difference between PowerPC and Intel. The tricky part is the difference between 32bit and 64bit with the EFI and the CPU instruction set. Also, why can't they stick with a clear numbering system that is visible when you get info on the Mac?

If you are desperate you can use hackintosh tools to boot in 'legacy' mode which allows 10.9 to run on unsupported Macs. Chameleon bootloader & some google fu will get it running in an unsupported way (assuming your graphics card is supported).
I think Apple dug this hole when they told everyone that these were '64bit Macs'. Sadly if they don't support 32bit EFI in their new OS it's not going to work by default. In other discussions I have read that drivers need to be rewritten for actual 64bit support on a 32bit EFI.
I have run 10.8 on my 1,1 MP, but 10.6 was nicer, at some point I'll try 10.9 on it
P.S. http://mactracker.ca and http://www.everymac.com are handy for working out what model supports what features etc.

How to find users who are running IE with different credentials ?

How to find users who are running IE with different credentials ?
Is there any tool or a solution in the market will help or a i can use GPO or even Power Shell ?
thnx & Regards ,,

Hi Salman,
Based on your description, we can use Windows Credential Manager to check this. Windows Credential Manager stores credentials, such as user names and passwords that we use to log on to websites or other computers on a network.
Regarding Credential Manager, the following article can be referred to for more information.
