How to share non-AirPrint printers on iOS devices?

Hi guys,
I'm running Lion OS X server and I have set up a printer on my server (the printer is not AirPrint friendly). What I want to do is set it up the printer so that I can get iPads and iPhones to be able to see that printer and print to it. I tried a program called Printopia 2 but it did not work, now I am not sure if it is becasue I have to set up something in system preferences or something similar. I have enbaled the printer to be shared.
Does anyone have any idea how I can overcome this problem?
Thank You.

I use Airprint Activator. ...on 10.6.8... It works great! The printers all show up on my ios devices.
I doesn't use the print server on 10.6.8, it just republishes the printers that are in the Sysem Prefs.
I know this because I'm not using the print services on SLS.

My iCloud drive is slow to save and share Pages documents with my IOS devices

My iCloud drive is slow to update and share my Pages documents with IOS devices. When I save a document to the iCloud drive I get a Cloud symbol in the Name line (behind the document name) and a bar in the Size column (like it's trying to save the document but is unable to do so). When I see the document in the document list on the Pages app on my IOS device it has a gray line along the bottom and I can't open the document in the Pages app.

Same for me, too - for the last few days. Reminiscent of a few weeks back when iTunes and Apple TV ground to a crawl. Of course Apple system status is green. After several days it just started working again. At least with Mac iCloud I have tried to use multiple networks/carriers so now there's no blaming AT&T on this one.
Called support and got the extended wait time message. Gave up.
Love my devices and software, but Apple really has poor cloud support. They won't even own up to the issues. If my employer didn't block dropbox, absolutely done deal I'd be off iCloud back with Dropbox.

How do I become certified to repair iOS devices?

I am a technology specialist in a school district. We currently have 400 iPads in our district with plans to add 500-600 more over the next 2-3 years. Unfortunately because we do have so many devices we do see a number of cracked screens among other problems. It would save us some money if we were able to perform the repairs here on site rather than having to send them out to another company to have them repaired.
On Apple's website I only see ACMT certification listed which apparently does not cover repairs of iOS devices. I was wondering how myself, or another of our district staff could be trained on repairing iPads so we can purchase replacement parts and do the repairs ourselves. Is this possible?

None of us here will know why Apple has not to date allowed repairs of iOS devices. All we know is that they don't. The only repairs Apple does on any iOS device has been back-glass replacement in iPhone 4 and replacement of the iPhone 5 screens, and that only in selected Apple Stores.
Note that if you've been using some unauthorized shop to replace broken screens, be aware that in doing so you have voided all further support from Apple for those devices.
Regards.

How to share event in calendar to other device

I want the calendar app to mark days with appointments so that I can see them in the Month view.
Days with appointments will be marked with a dot in month view. Tapping the icon that looks like a box with three lines underit will show you events for the selected day in month view.
Also, I don't want to have to select mail messages individually for deletion. How can I do this more quickly (besides tapping faster)?
You can't.

Share a calendar from an iOS device

Hello,
I have been searching for a way to share a calendar from either my iPad or iPhone. Has anyone figured out how to do this.
Thanks in advance,

Install iCloud on both devices then tap Settings > iCloud and switch Mail to ON.
Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.

TS3988 Help - How do I manage to remove an IOS device, in this case an IPhone 4S, from my Apple ID account? I want to use this account only for my IPAD

Hi,
I have managed to initially set up our two IOS devices - my wifes IPhone 4S and my IPAD 2 - in a not so smart way.
I used the same Apple ID account for both devices.
As such it worked, however after a few days we decided to have two different Apple ID accounts, one for each device.
I made a new Apple ID account for my wifes Iphone, and kept the old account for my IPAD.
This is as well working now with both these accounts, however I have found out that my wifes IPhone is still registered under my account.
This I will like to have rectified and cleared, i.e. I want my wife's phone cleared from my Apple ID account, so that my Apple ID account only contain information related to my IPAD 2.
My wife's Apple ID account for her IPhone 4S works fine and we do not need to change anything for this account.
However, how can I clear/edit my own account, so that it only contain information about my IPAD?
For example, when I use the Apps "Find My Iphone" I can see that the system is trying to locate both my IPAD and my wife's IPhone 4S, when I have logged on with my Apple ID account no. This show that one way or the other both devices are registered under my Apple ID account.
I will appreciate some assistance to tell how to rectify this matter,
Regards,
Morten

How can i edit and manage my iOS device on a computer

i have no access to an iOS device. if i did, is it possible to just log in with my iTunes info and manage it that way. i need to manage my storage, pictures, delete a movie that was downloaded on my iOS device, which was an iPhone 4. please help.

You can only manage data stored in iCloud. To do it, if you are in a PC, install iCloud Control Panel > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
Then, open Control Panel > Network and Internet > iCloud, and log in with your Apple ID. After that, select "Manage" and you will be able to delete data from iCloud if you need that

How do i manage Calendar on 5 iOS devices

Hello All,
looking for a little help here.
The problem is managing the Apple Calendar across 5 different Apple iOS devices (one iPhone 5, one iPhone 4s, three iPad minis)
From the iPhone5 i can set a Calendar event and invite anyone and the invite will populate directly in the iOS Calendar app, however when i use the iPhone 4s to do the same thing the invite is sent as an email via Google calendar and not the Apple calendar.
The iPhone 5 has an icCoud using a gmail address, the iPhone 4s has a comcast iCloud address, the iPad minis are using unique iCloud addresses.
Anybody know what is wrong??? Is the gmail address causing issues???
Thanks

Try going to iCloud.com from your computer, sign into the iCloud account that your 4s is using, open your calendar, click the gear icon on the lower left and choose Preferences, go to the Advanced tab within preferences, then make sure you have selected "In-app notifications" next to Invitations.

How do I make that iTunes and iOS devices update the name of the devices?

I have two new Apple Tv's, changed the names, but they all appear in Airplay option as "Apple TV", not the names I gave them. So, basically by try and error method I have to figure out which one I'm at.
Anyone knows?
The names are changed, I turned them off, unplugged them, restarted iTunes, iOS Devices, and nothing... they appear all three as "Apple TV"
Hope you can help me out. Thanks for your time!

I have the same problem, and I'm browsing forums as we speak looking for answers. The only thing I've read is that some people have restarted their routers to reset naming issues they are getting on their network. I'm going to give this is a shot to see if it fixes the problem.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the remote app, and it didn't work either.

How to re-download the ringtone into iOS device without sync

Dear Sir/Madam
I recently download the ringtone in itune store and I find out that only one of my iOS device can able to change into the tones I have download while the other one not. Is there anything I can do or any place I can check to enable the download ? Please help me out !!!
Sincerly,
Justin P.

Ringtones are a one-time only download from the store. You will need to connect the device that you downloaded it on to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy it over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync it to your other device(s).

How to share Reminders List by using iOS 7

Share it on icloud.com as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm4bb3fa6e.

How can I share a playlist with another iOS device that they can play when they're offline?

I have created a playlist in iTunes for someone in my family and have authorised him for home sharing. He can listen to the playlist when on our wifi at home, but how can he listen to it on his iPhone when he is away from home?

What you are asking isn't possible as devices must be logged in to the same wifi and with the same Apple ID for Home Sharing to work.
