Can I set up my iPad to use my wireless printer now that I use Windows 8 Pro on my home network. I moved from Vista a short while ago. thanks

Can someone explain how I go about setting up my iPad 2 to use a wireless printer as an airprinter - I had the thing working perfectly under Vista, however it all seems so much more reluctant under Windows 8 Pro.
I'm in the UK, but that doesn't make me a bad person ...
Thanks

This is not really an appropriate question for this forum - it's for the specific Apple product called Apple Remote Desktop which is for managing networked Macs - but you forward the ports to the iMac's internal IP address, the one assigned to it via the Airport (setting a static IP address usually is better, though, since it won't change when you restart the Mac). This may be of help:

  • Why can i not get my ipad to recognize my wireless printer but my apple desktop works with it

    Why can I not get my ipad2 to print from my my wireless printer that i use for my apple desktop

    It's also possible that your wireless printer will work with a minor OS tweak if you're on Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.x. Your Mac system must be on for printing to occur. (I haven't tested with Leopard 10.5.x or Lion 10.7.x)

    I've been using it to print to a Canon MP560 wireless printer and an HP LaserJet 1320 USB-to-Mac printer from my wife's iPad 2 since the first day she received it for both photos and documents.  Duplex printing to the Canon does not seem to be supported.

  • How can i set up my ipad to be able to download apps that i purchase on any of my computers

    I have a MacBook Pro and a tower at home. I want to be able to purchase/download apps on either device and then upload them to my iPad. When I try to download to my MacBook Pro I get a message saying that all apps/databases will be removed and replaced by the ones currently on the MacBook Pro. How can I sync them all?
    Thanks.

    There is Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password which you can set to '15 minutes' - the only other option for the setting is 'Immediately', you won't be able to have it as 2 or 3 minutes.

  • Can i set up my iPad and iPod to use iMessage between the two devices with the same Apple ID?

    Can i set up my iPad and iPod to use iMessage between the two devices with the same Apple ID? SO i could iMessage if out from my iPod to my iPad at home to be viewed by a family member?

    Look into using Apple Configurator.  It's the easiest way to "reimage" and Manage iPads that I know of right now.

    Also, look into using the Educational Volume Purchase Program, if you have not already done so.

  • How can I set up company ipads with preloaded apps and files?

    I want to set up multiple ipads with preloaded apps and files before handing them out to employees.  We intendend the employee to be able to install their own content on the device using their own itunes account.  When I attempted to connected to a pc using a personal account my the content obtained by the company account was prompted to be removed.  Was this done incorrectly?  Is there a way I can set up company ipads with preloaded apps and files so that they don't get removed when the user connects them to another computer with another itunes account?
    Right now we are looking to have the employee use their own itunes account and reimburse the expense for the needed apps, but this could be an issue if they leave the company and the device is reassigned.

    Yes this is possible. I've been using Apple Configurator to do this (you could also use iTunes to restore backups). The trick is, you need to tell the end user not to sync apps within his/her iTunes on his/her computer. You will need to instruct the end user to download apps OTA using the App Store on the iPad rather than with iTunes on his/her computer. If the user tries to sync apps on his/her computer, it will wipe out apps that you installed. However if the user downloads apps OTA, your apps and the user downloaded apps will both stay on the iPad.
    When you hand the iPad to the user, be sure to log out of your company Apple ID on the iPad at Settings -> Store and have them sign in with their personal Apple ID. That way it is all set for them to download apps under their own Apple ID.

  • Can i set up my ipad in the same itouch account?

    can i set my new ipad in the same account/place where i currently have my itouch set up? will this affect what i currently have in my itouch or will it see the difference when i connect my ipad and itouch? thank you

    You can use the same account and iTunes library with both - iTunes will recognise that it's a different device and you can then chose what to sync or not to sync. I use my iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch on the same computer without any problem.

  • How can I set up my iPad to print to my Kodak ESP 7250 wifi printer

    How can I set up my iPad to print to my Kodak ESP 7250 wifi printer

    Kodak has a firmware upgrade to allow a version of air printing via a third party service, google docs I think. You can e-mail documents to your printer, or you can set up a hardwired printer as a local print server and send them to that.
    Or you can look into an app. I have that same model of printer and use Print n Share and it works fine...slow but fine. I didn't go for the firmware cloud printing simply because I didn't want yet another online account.

  • I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.

    I have a dual band router. How can I tell if my iPad is using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz. I want to try and manage all the devices in the house over our WLAN. Thanks. Nik

    I'm not really sure there is a way to tell, it certainly doesn't seem to be something you can set within the iPad so I'd assume that if a 5Ghz frequency is available it would use that, otherwise it would default to using a 2.4Ghz frequency instead.  I'd also assume from having a 5Ghz router myself that there would be some sort of light on your router which will flash on/off when data is recieved so if iPad is your only 5Ghz device and it's sending/receiving data then this light should flash on your router.

  • How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic? Is this possible?

    How can i set songs within a playlist, or an entire playlist, so that they are not included when using the shuffle function on IPOD Classic?
    Is this possible?

    You can set any song to Skip when shuffling.
    In your iTunes Library, highlight the song and right-click/Get Info. On the Options tab is the Skip when shuffling box. Select that and then Sync the iPod with your Library.

  • HT1461 Win 7 set up and running OK,but after go back from OSX the wireless net work stuck at identification cause the window working without Internet.Can we fix it or I must use Windows off line all the time? I already contact Microsoft 2 times for activa

    Win 7 set up and running OK,but after go back from OSX the wireless net work stuck at identification cause the window working without Internet.Can we fix it or I must use Windows off line all the time?
    I already contact Microsoft 2 times for activations.Hope I can fix from Apple instead.

    Ok....Got "Problem 2 and 4" solved....still trying to figure out this pop up everytime I click something...it's crazy how fast the pop up blinks...maybe once or 3 blinks then nothing till you close the window, then pop up then disappears...then click something
    else and pop up then gone....never seen this before...ive seen it when you tried to get online which turned out to be a virus on a customers cpu I worked on some years ago, I think it has something to do with the deleted files that I spoke of on last
    post...I notice it does it on start up as well.....think something is trying to install but not sure. Need to figure out where the appdata or start up folder and see whats in there....maybe it's in there.......so I might wait to see how it acts in the next
    couple days for "Problem 1"...but other than that it's running like a champ...so right now I just want to get the pop up windows to stop........thx again for everyone's help on this.

  • Transferring pdf documents to my ipad 2 using windows,

    How to transfer pdf documents to my ipad 2 using windows.
    I've tried a few different method without much success.
    Can someone help!!!?!?!!?!?!?
    Hope your all having a beautiful day

    Emailing them is the easiest way there is IMO.
    You can drag the PDFs into the books section of iTunes and then sync them to the iPad (if you have iBooks on the iPad). You can use DropBox if you have that on your PC and the iPad. And you can use iOS file sharing as well if you have Adobe Reader, Good Reader or Save2 PDF or another PDF files sharing app on the iPad.
    Read about file sharing here.

  • Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7.  Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?

    1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
    2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
    3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds
    4. Turn on your iPad and test print.

    Reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
