IOS 6.1 can no longer air print to HP 6700; it worked before with no problems; is this a bug with 6.1?
We have 2 iPads (2nd and 4th generation). Both have been air printing without trouble to our HP 6700, which is on Apple's list of supported printers. Both iPads were updated to OS 6.1 last night. Now when attempting to air print something, the HP 6700 does not appear on the printer options list of printers to select from. Interestingly, the other supported printer, and HP 8500, does show on the list, but when attempting to air print to it, this results in an error message "An error occurred printing this document." This error happens in multiple apps that support air printing. Is this a bug in iOS 6.1?
The printers are visible in AirPort, AND I can print from a computer (MB Air and a Dell Win7) to the HP 6700 without problems, but no longer from the iPads. What gives? I have powered down the HP 6700 and back up. I even restarted the AirPort Express. The problem persists with printing from the iPads.
Hi, everyone, I yesterday bought a HP 6700, after setting everything like supposed to be, I could scan to computer and by eWeb service but not Print directly from iMacs (10.7.5 and 10.8.5) or iPhone, after installing things as suggesting here and HP support site, I decides to called HP support, and they do something, first they force to eliminated all printers from Print & Scan pannel (system preferences) by right-click over printer list on that pannel, and then create the printer from the IP address instead of by default selecting it from list (bonjour), that make the iMacs start printing fine. But iPhone still not. Then HP support suggested that maybe my router didn't support bonjour or it was not activated, so I tried with my phone company with no luck, since they told me that they never hear about this and that my router didn't support it, even if I think they didn't know, period. So I decided to create a network over my regular network, using an Airport Express, I create a new network (connected the Airport through ethernet cable to the router), and then place the iMacs and iPhone over the new network, restarted printer and iPhone, and then finally the iPhone could print on the HP 6700.
So I suggest you try first force the printer using the IP address, thaht solved the problem with iMacs, and then if you can, used another router cause maybe the one you use have "issues" with bonjour/airprint etc....
Hope this help.

I have just had to change my router, which has resulted in my i pad and HPphotosmart 5524 not connecting even though both devices are connecting well to the router. My laptop on windows prints on wi fi perfectly.
My previous router a 7 year old Netgear worked with the i pad but not this new Huawei HG532.
Is this the router or an Apple/HP issue. My network provider AOL/Talk Talk seem to want to point the finger towards the latter even though their old Netgear worked.
They are ringing me back this afternoon and I would like some advise to back up my problem.You have to set the new SSID and Password on your printer to put printer and iPad on the same network. Run the CD again.
Setup a typical HP AirPrint Printer
1. Insert the CD into the CD drive of the computer, and then wait a few seconds for the software installer to start.
2. Accept the installation agreements, and then click Next . It might take several minutes for your computer to install the printer software.
3. You will be asked to connect printer to computer with USB cable
4. You will be ask how you want to connect to printer, select Network (Ethernet/Wireless) and then click Next.
5. Setup will access computer and router for wireless settings.
6. Setup will ask if you want to use wireless settings (SSID and Password) to setup printer. Select Yes and press Next.
7. Setup will then send wireless settings to printer.
8. Once printer is setup, you will be ask to remove USB cable.
9. The printer is now ready for AirPrint. -

Can the mac air print to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus Wireless e-All-in-One?
Can the mac air print to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 plus Wireless e-all-in-one?
AirPrint is an iOS 5 protocol. It is not used on the Mac or Lion. What you *can* do is add the wireless printer to you network and print from the mac using that.

I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes. Before iOS 8, movies played fine. After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive. Anyone else have a similar issue?
I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view. -
I have an iphone 4s and have installed the new ios download and can no longer find games and other apps that i have downloaded. Where would they be or have they been wiped?
Hi,
don´t be worry, this would not be a problem.
You have to take the same Aplle ID on both devices, then you can sync them via iTunes by using all universal apps on each device, create playlists, albums and all the things you need and sync it, no problem...

TS1702 after upgrading to ios 6 i can no longer use the app store.
after upgrading to ios 6 i can no longer use the app store on my iPhone, i am unable to install new apps. i chose to fill out the security questions and the problem seems to occur since then. what could be a solution to get the app store working again??
i just contacted apple support and the solution is the following!!!!!
connect the iphone to your computer and open itunes
then click on itunes store at the left side of the screen
then click at the right top side of your itunes screen on your email address (or id that is displayed there in the black bar)
choose log out
then go to the top of the screen with the search option in itunes where you can search in the store and choose an app that you have not yet installed.
then you get the security questions also in itunes, fill the them out and after you have done that you are asked to log in again
now when you install an app that works (it is then on your computer still)
open the app store on your iphone and choose the updates button and install the app from the cloud
now when you install new apps also from the app store on your iphone it works again!!! and you are no longer asked about the security questions
(the other option they told me (that i did not have to use) is: go to settings/general/ all the way at the bottom of the screen choose make new settings restore networksettings and choose yes) -
Since ios 7 I can no longer use google translate in safari. I use this page every day to translate friends Facebook entries. Anyone else having this problem? And is there a fix? Currently it is in my bookmark bar beside Facebook and worked fine until I upgraded top ios 7 a few days ago.
Go to your Google translate bookmark.
Type in a word then tap whatever language.
Make a select for the language to be translated to by tapping Dutch (or whatever language you see in the box all the way to the right. You should see a language menu. -
Since upgrading to the newest version of ios 8, I can no longer share my photos on facebook. I have tried going to settings-privacy-photos, but the facebook app does not show up for me to change the settings. Any suggestions?
when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?
iPhoto '11 is working well.
The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

Tried to print from my ipad 4 but saying can't find air printer. It has printed before.

First, try double-clicking your Home button. A row of recent Apps will line up along the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and look for the Print Center icon. If it is there, you should be able to delete any print job that might be hanging it up.
If you can access the internet, then you should have a good connection to a printer that is using the same WiFi. If you do not have your normal connection to the internet, then I suggest you unplug your WiFi router for a few seconds. Then reset the iPad's network at Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. You will need to reconnect the iPad to WiFi.

please help me to update and restore my iphone 5? beacause after updating to iOS 7, i can no longer updater and restore my phone. it always comes in error
I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps. Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
Please follow this steps:
1) Double tap the home button
2) Hold down on an icon
3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
5) Tap Settings
6) Tap General
7) Tap Reset
8) Tap Network Settings
Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again.
Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7.
Otherwise I'm having a little success with this. Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all). So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process. -
After updating my iphone 4S with the ios 6, I can no longer open my apps. HELP!
After updating my iphone 4S with the ios 6, I can no longer open my apps (Facebook, Instagram, games, Voxer, WhatsApp, Tumblr). It prompts me to enter my Apple ID. I enter my email address (what is listed everywhere as my ID) and it does not recognize that. I wondered if it is saved somewhere as something different so I went online to find it. When I go to the support page and request my apple ID, it takes me in circles to reset my password but never tells me my ID. HELP!
