I've read a whole bunch of forums about printing from the Ipad2, I think I understand that, but I haven't found anything answering this:  I'm hesitating to buy an Ipad because I can't find an answer if this will work.

What I want to do:  Set up a (non-gmail...Mobileme or another recommended) dedicated email account on my ipad2 (or ipad3) that does nothing but send e-mails and attachments to my gmail account.  Once sent, I can turn off my Ipad and put it away.  Then I can go to any computer that can open and print out my received gmail and attachments.  (Like, duh, any computer with an internet connection -smile-)
A year from now, I might try setting this up to go thru google cloud/ cloud print -- do you know if apple is doing anything that willl prevent this?
For now, just e-mail and attachments, sent to my gmail account from ipad. The ipad account is to use a unique e-mail address, password, username, login.
Know if this will work?  If a work-around is needed, do you know of one?  I'm real vague about what a 'push' is in e-mail speak.
Thanks, minimalistme

Sorry, but I'm a bit more confused (by your examples).

Hi Chris - I'm just trying to be able to get print-outs from my ipad without carrying a special printer around.  Suppose I'm traveling and want to provide a bank statement to verify income: I can ask them ( a landlord, say) to let me print it out and sign it for them.
This assumes you are using your iPad and they have an AirPrint capable printer. Or you send/email the form to them.
Or I need to print out a PDF while I'm visiting my nephew - I can fill it out and have him print it out for me.  Or I can fill out that landlord's application blank with my ipad and email it to him.
What does this have to do with emailing from one of your accounts to another of your accounts?
Gmail apparently prevents us from sending emails to ourselves.
You mean from/to the same account?
If you can access the email, why would you need to resend it to the same account?
Anyway, its not a privacy issue, but rather a work-around
Don't understand/know what you are working around...
Access the email then send to your landlord or nephew and have them print it.
If they have an AirPrint printer available, you can print it yourself.
Use their computer to access your email though webmail and print it on their printer.
Again, I don't understand what forwarding the email to yourself will accomplish.

  • HT5043 So I was a little skeptical about deleting photos from my iPhone but I did. Shouldn't I be able to access them on iCloud? Because I can't find a way to view all my old photos that were backed up before I deleted them.

    No you can not access yoru photos on iCloud
    PhotoStream is a way to share photos between devices - it is not a way to backup photos or to view photos

  • My hard drive failed. My applications were on the drive including Excel, Word, and Powerpoint. Apple told me I could pull everything from the failed drive. I tried that but the drive is bad so I can't get to anything. Do you think Apple will reinstall?

    My hard drive failed. My applications were on the drive including Excel, Word, and Powerpoint. Apple told me I could pull everything from the failed drive. I tried that but the drive is bad so I can't get to anything. The Office package was installed/included when I purchased the Mac. Does anyone think Apple will provide me with the Office package? Thank you!

    Thank you everyone. I apologize to confusing all but I am up to date and running OS X 10.8.2.  It's possible I purchased the key for Office but I don't think so although it was 3-4 years ago. I guess I will stop in the Apple Store and just ask. I may just buy the new bundle anyway to get the most updated.
    I have read there are issues with the MS Office bundle running on our latest OS, is that true?
    Thank you all!!! You've been great!

  • When Lion officially comes out from the Mac App Store, I understand that I can just buy it from there. However, will the laptops have Lion automatically? Or does it come with Snow leopard still.

    When Lion officially comes out from the Mac App Store, I understand that I can just buy it from there. However, will the laptops have Lion automatically? Or does it come with Snow leopard still.

    The ones sold that day will come with Snow Leopard most likely but they will be able to get a free upgrade to LIon if they apply within 30 days. Hardware coming through the supply chain from the day of the announcement will have Lion installed so it depends what stock people have to move before buyers see those.

  • I live out in the county where WiFi is not available.  I don't have internet either.  I have purchased the ipad2 and have been told that I can print from the ipad2 directly to the HP Officejet Pro 8500A eprint all-in-one.  Is that true?

    I would like to be able to print from my ipad2 or my iphone4 directly to a wireless printer.  I don't have WiFi at home or internet.  I am able to get my emails and use the internet thru both these at home.  Will I be able to use them to print? Any suggestions which printer?  I was told that the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A eprint all-in-one should work and wouldn't have to use a router.  I don't want to go purchase this and try to set it up if it won't work thru the 3G network.

  • I cannot sync my ipad photos to itunes on Windows 7 because it can't find   a "new folder." I don't know what this means. How to fix it?

    I can't sync my ipad photos to windows itunes in Windows 7 because it can;t find a "new folder" How do I fix this?

    It's not entirely clear to me, but I assume that you are trying to copy photos from the iPad to your computer (as opposed to syncing photos from your computer to the iPad), possibly using the windows camera wizard ? If so then the message is saying that it can't find a folder called 'New folder' on your computer which is presumably where it copied the last set of photos to (?). I don't use the wizard to copy the photos from iPad (I do it manually via windows explorer) so I don't know how it works, but aren't you able to tell it to copy the photos to a different folder on your computer other than one called 'new folder' ?  This page gives basic info for copying photos from the iPad to your computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 (it is not done via iTunes).
    If you want to copy photos to the iPad from your computer then there are instructions on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 - that is done via iTunes using the Photos tab on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the iPad on the left-hand side of it

  • This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out? I am using a MacBook.

    Press "Command P" and when the Print dialogue box comes up, towards the bottom there is an option allowing you to choose the text size, i.e: small, med, large.
    Hope this helps,

  • I've made a successful dvdproject.  But now I can't reopen the project because it can't find a few photo files.  Aren't they already in the project?  The dvd plays fine.

    I can't reopen the project, because it can't find a few photos. 
    I thought those were already in the project, as cutaways.  (No slideshow)
    Also, in "Share" I exported to Desktop.  That gave me problems.  I don't see "package contents" anywhere.
    I got the .m4v file into iTunes, and got that into iDVD.  But now I can't reopen, because of the photos.
    I need a step-by-step "Share" routine to go by.
    Thank you

    Mr. Shippey,
    I thought the video and cutaways, inserts, etc. were incorporated during "Share". 
    And not even during the iDVD processing?
    I know you're supposed to find a "view package contents" when you right-click on.... something.
    Then you do that, and the .m4v file is in there. 
    I know somewhere there's a "Share" tutorial.  I don't have a good grasp of the whole "file structure".
    So I might wind up making copies of these iDVDs. 
    Will they be the same good quality?
    Thank you.

    download ios 7, and the location function is off, I can not access because I forgot the key constraints, I can not restore the iphone because I can not find iphone app access

    If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:
    http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034
    If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod),  however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

  • "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server"

    I just bought my iPhone. The first time I attempted to log onto my home wireless network (US Robotics Wireless Router) the iPhone performed perfectly. However, the next time I attempted to logon and surf it gave me the "Safari can't open the page because it can't find the server" error message. I tried a variety of things which didn't work. I called the Apple Tech Support. Turning off the router and rebooting it was the only thing that worked. I thought my problem was resolved because after cycling the router the iPhone worked great once again. But . . . later the same day I attempted to connect to the router and the same thing happened and I got the error message. I attempted to power cycle the router just like before but this time it did not work! Help! Bad router? Wrong settings on router or iPhone?

    Do you have other wireless devices connected to this same router? Do they work?
    I really can't help you much but to say that when my router exhibited this issue it was accross the board (all notebooks would connect immediately following a router restart, but would loss connectivity until I rebooted the router again). In my case the only solution that was permanent was to replace the router.
    You may also try restarting the phone and the router, setup security - WEP - (or disable security) on the router and phone, and/or try a different wi-fi channel (may actually help).

  • I lost my iPad mini how can I find it?

    I lost my iPad mini how can I find it?

    If you had "Find My iPad" enabled then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it. If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPad" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPad" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
    If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • Hi, i have downloaded peppa pig series using itunes, and have tried to sync them to my Ipad Mini and IPhone 5, however it is not working it states "videos from your Itunes libary can not be copied to 'ipad' because they can not be played on this Ipad.

    I have downloaded Peppa Pig series using Itunes and have tried to sync the tv programme to both my Ipad Mini and IPhone 5.  However neither work saying that 'videos from Itunes Libary can not be copied to 'ipad' because they can not be played on this I Pad.  I have downloaded the HD episodes is this my problem or do i need to download a 'video watching' app?  Please help we are going away next week and the episodes were to help keep my toodler occupied on the plane.  thank you

    The error you received kinda looks like the one in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4223
    But the iPhone 5 and the iPad mini should support HD videos. 
    What I would try is downloading the movies directly to your iPad mini or your iPhone.  You will want to do this when connected to Wi-Fi, but you can follow these steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    I hope that helps!
