IPad 2 loosing conection with printer

Hello everybody,
I got my iPad 2 since a few months, bought an HP Officejet 6500 E710N printer to be able to print from my iPad.
I've gone through most of the web discussions, done most of all suggestions from everybody and nothing solved the problem.
The only time i can print from my iPad to the printer is during a short 60 seconds after i powered up my printer, after this time my iPad looses connection. My printer works every time when i print in wifi mode via my computer.
All my drivers for the wifi router, printer and iPad are up-to-date.
I have a D-Link router, model DIR-825 with the 5GHz band disabled.
I contacted D-Link, HP for the printer and Apple (without feedback from Apple) and everybody says it's not their fault !
Can somebody help, i'm discouradged and disapointed !
Many thanks for your support !
Sam

Dear rbii,
I just solved my problem: I just purchased an Apple AirPort Extreme router.
I had enough searching the internet for solutions that probably don't exist.
I'm stuck now with a D-Link router and had to pay the big price for the Apple device, but now I can print from my iPad to my HP Officejet A printer without any disconnection.
To all those who have the same type of problem, chances that the router is the cause are very high, if you don't want to loose your mind on trying to find a solution, you should think about the Apple router !
Please note that this router is much faster than the D-Link, at least twice the speed and videos are flawless !
With regards,
Sam

I cannot get my ipad to conect with my wireless - talktalk.

I cannot get my ipad to connect with my wireless router- talk talk.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

The new iPad looses conection to cell every once in a while

The New iPad looses cell connection every once in a while even thought my iPhone stays connected constantly. M carrier is AT&T for both the iPad and the iPhone. It just goes into searching more for a couple of minutes and then it connects again.

First, try bringing up Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the home screen. Turn on the flashlight by tapping the icon in the lower left. Does the flashlight work? If not, perhaps you have a hardware issue.
If it works, check the top of the screen when you open the Camera app to make sure you have the flash on.

My ipad cant conect with Facebook server

I try to conect my Facebook acount in settigs but the ipad say there is a problem with the server

Seems a lot of people are having this problem. I'm guessing its related to the latest iOS update.

Pc suite always looses conection with cable N78

when i try to send applications to my n78 via the data cable it gives a error message lost connection with phone it will work fine to update software or use in data mode so its not the cable. its the latest pc suite im useing.
I can send applications via bluetooth no problems, has any one got any ideas? i have even tried a different cable.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have alredy got that version, I have 2 genuine nokia data cables the one that came with the phone and the one I got with my 6500 slide neither with transfer applications but will do all the other jobs, but the cheap chinese copy works fine. This does not inspire me to buy genuine spares if they are not as good as the copys.

I have just converted from PC to iMac. Yay. But pls be nice to me; I am back to newb! Running Lion. Have connected a Time Capsule as both a backup and WAP. I want to be able to join the network with my iPad, iPhone, iPod to print. How can I do this?

Can I do this using the Time Capsule. I am not tech, so bear with me. Can I get the iPad to connect wirelessly to the TC, which connects wirelessly to the Canon MP495? Or, can I connect/network the iPad to the iMac to print?
Either way, or if there is any other solution, I would appreciate if someone would walk me through it, or point me to a plain-speaking resource.
Thankyou.
Actually, one more: I would like to connect my HP laptop as well. I have heard this is not simple, but possible.

You can create a wifi network with your TC, and you can join this network with your iPad. However, your printer does not support the AirPrint protocol, so you will not be able to print from your iPad, unless you load additional software.
These are the steps:
1. (You may have completed this step already) Set up your TC to create a wireless network. You can do this from AirPort Utility on your Mac or from the AirPort Utility App on your iPad (free download from the App Store).
2. From your iPad, go to settings / wifi and join the network.
3. Download the Canon iPhone App from the App store on your iPad
4. You can now print photos from your iPad to your Canon printer.
If you want full functionality, (not just photos), there is software for your Mac that makes your printer available to your iPad through AirPrint (Printopia). The downside is, you have to purchase it, and you have to have your Mac running when you want to print from your iPad.
Good luck!

My iPad 2 used to printer flawlessly with airprint printer.

My Ipad 2 used to printer flawlessly with my Canon airprinter printer. It no longer recognizes the printer. I've shut down both the printer and iPad 2 and it still does not work. Any suggestions? BTW, printer works fine with computer wirelessly.

For troubleshooting:
Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).
Turn on WiFi router
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on printer
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on iPad
Try to print.

Iphone conection with ipad bluetooth

is it possible to conect the iphone and share the internet conection with the ipad?

With iOS 4.3 on both devices it is possible (if the carrier supports it and you purchase the data plan) to tether an iPad (or iPod Touch) to an iPhone4 via wifi, to a iPhone 3G and later via BT. See:

Iphone and ipad won't connect with printer

I just got an HP photosmart B210A printer. The printer works great with wireless from my pc. When I want to print from my iphone or ipad they see the printer, I press print and all I get is that it is connecting with the printer. Does anyone have any

Hi,
On both the iPhone and iPad..
Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings
Then restart your devices. Try printing.
Restarting the router may help also.

Remote App on iPad not working with ATV

The remote app on my iPad (1st gen) was working fine with ATV last week. I noticed when using ATV there was a message about updating the ATV to a new version. I skipped the update each time as I just wanted to watch the program. However, we recently had a power outage which caused the ATV to shut down and I'm assuming launched the update as I didn't see the update message last night. However, I'm not able to use my iPad remote app with ATV any longer. When the remote app launches it indicates that it connected and it sees both ATV's. Yet, there is no ability to control the ATV. My iPhone 4S does not have this problem; It still works perfectly. I also have an iPad 2 and 3 and will check that shortly. Does anyone know for sure if the recent updates caused iOS 5.0 users to loose functionality?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello ElCidPhysics90,

Hey bud,
Ensure that the printer has the latest firmware update installed.
Also, make sure that the printer is shared over the wireless network.
I work with HP.

Why does it tell me my ipad is synched with another itunes library and wants to erase the thing when I want to synch it? I haven't synched it with any other mac but my own.

why does it tell me my ipad is synched with another itunes library and wants to erase the thing when I want to synch it? I haven't synched it with any other mac but my own.

Hi Lisa,
I know from experience that this must be a frustrating situation for you especially if you don't want to loose the music/video content that is currently on your ipod. Unfortunately though you may have to consider re-syncing it as it thinks its currently synced with another computer.
If you bought any music that is on the ipod through itunes you can opt to right click the ipod in itunes and 'transfer purchases' if you authorise your library in the 'Store' menu in itunes. Some reasons for this happening may include some of the following:
Deleting and reinstalling your itunes on the computer.
Removing the account you had on the computer you used itunes in and making a new one. (User account, eg: Lisa).
Changing computers in the past.
A friend or family member syncing it on their computer to give you there music.
A sign of a failing iPod.
Alternatively you can opt to not sync it and keep the music that is on your ipod there but this means you will never be able to update your ipod.
Hope this helps!

Can i print from iPad wireless to my printer w/o getting an Air printer?

I have a router that can print from my PC or from my Lenovo laptop wirelessly to a Canon printer that is wired to the router via an ethernet cable. is there some way to get the iPad to see the printer without having to buy on of those Air Printers? i bought Print Central but that is cumbersome as i have to be using Print Central to have it print something. i can't just have an email open and be able to print. i just want to be able to print anything that is on the iPad screen.
Thanks

It's possible to use free software (Virtualbox and Ubuntu) to fix the broken iOS 5 Airprint printing with non supported printers. Here's a fix that works on my imac, but should also work on even a windows pc.
My setup is a lion imac with 2 non-airprint supported usb printers attached, a belkin wifi router that provides network connectivity for my imac, ipad, and iphone.
Install ubuntu 11.10 in a virtualbox vm. Specify to use the "Bridged Adapter" with "en1: WiFi (AirPort)" for the network hardware. Make sure the imac's usb printers are setup with sharing. On ubuntu, select System Settings > Printers and add your imac's shared printers to the list. Then start ubuntu's firefox and set "localhost:631" in the address. On the administration tab, under the Server section, check "Share printers connected to this system" and hit Change Settings button to activate it. Go back to ubuntu's printer setup, and right click on each printer and check that the properties Policies tab does not have any messages about it being unshared. If so, then go back to firefox and make sure the Server sharing checkbox is enabled. It may help to reboot.
Fire up virtualbox to be able to use AirPort printing to your imac's usb printers, when you want to print from the iphone or ipad. This also works on iOS 5.
Only problem is error message from iphone to check the printer for errors, even though it actually prints ok.
