Is there any way to print directly to a wireless printer without a wireless network?

My daughter is in the dorms at a university that doesn't allow individual wireless networks and I am trying to figure out if I can print directly from her MacBook Pro to the HP Photosmart Premier C310A.  Can anyone help?

I am currently using a USB connection, but that keeps me tethered to the printer.  Which is something I would like to avoid.  I was looking at creating an ad hoc network with the MacBook, but I don't know Apple products well enough. 
Is there a way to wirelessly print to the printer without an internet connection?  Will an ad hoc network work? Can an ad hoc network even be done with a MacBook?

    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer

    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

  • Is there any way to merge 2 video layers to one without exporting?

    Is there any way to merge 2 video layers into one without exporting as a new QuickTime movie? I have tried opening a blank player to copy and paste into, but it always forces it to be layered, even when I change the layer numbers both to zero. I tried extracting the video layers and omitting the audio tracks. Then I saved it as a new self contained movie. I am trying to burn the video to dvd with Roxio Easy Media Creator 9's MyDVD on WIndows XP, but I am also using a MacBook with QuickTime Pro. MyDVD will only recognize one video and audio layer at a time, hence, the other layers get skipped. There should be an easy way to merge two video layers without having to export it as a new movie, which takes 2 hours for this 2 hour TV show. Thanks for any answers.

    Nope, it either needs to be plugged in or turned on with the power button.
    A replacement iPhone 4 is $149, but at least the whole phone is replaced.

    If the deleted note was on your iPad when you last backed it up to iCloud, with some effort you could restore it from your backup by following Winston Churchill's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22600445#22600445.

    It cannot be installed. It comes pre-installed on every iPhone 4S and later. Maybe it was disabled under Settings > General > Restrictions.

    iOS 6 only added support for the 3rd generation iPad. It was always on the iPhone 4S. Then the same goes for your boss: Maybe disabled in restrictions, or maybe actually an iPhone 4.

    is there any way to completely wipe my hard drive clean without losing my operating system

    Stellar Wipe Mac is a wiping software that wiper a hard drive beyond the scope of recovery. You can select from the software which drive to wipe leaving the OS X intact. Else, if the drive is a single partition then no software will be able to wipe without wiping the OS X. So be careful.

  • Is there any way to get iCloud sync (iPhone + 2 Macs) without wi-fi?

    We have two Macs (MacBook Pro, iMac) and one iPhone 4; OSs up-to-date (Lion, iOS5).  Our only routine access to the internet is via the mobile phone 3G network for the iPhone, and via a 3G USB stick/dongle for the Macs, also using the mobile phone network.  We do NOT have access to the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router (whether ADSL or cable).  This is in Melbourne, Australia, btw.
    Question: is there any way at all that we can get syncing of contacts and calendars for all three devices? - preferably automatic, ideally real-time whenever a device could see the internet.  With syncing set, there seem to be some random updates (and duplication) between devices, but it seems that normally syncing is enabled only when the device sees the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router, and that's what we don't have.  (We can't trundle the iMac to an internet cafe either!)
    Understood that a local sync would be possible via iTunes for one of the two computers and the iPhone, provided they could see each other wirelessly - but there's a second computer...
    E-mail no problem; we use IMAP.
    All suggestions gratefully received!

    Thanks for this quick response.
    I thought I had established by searching forums that iCloud sync routinely requires wi-fi.  I can see from Apple documentation that backup does; and that Documents and Data (in iOS) has a switch to permit/deny syncing using a cellular network.  What I have not found is a one-stop-shop on the Apple site that says which iCloud facilities are supposed to work with cellular/3G networks and which not.  Can you point us to such a list?
    Regarding our own problem: the missing link appears to be the download of new entries from the cloud to either of the Macs, the Mac being connected to the internet via 3G.  For example a new calendar appointment entered on the Mac duly appears on the iPhone; but a new appointment entered on the iPhone fails to appear on the Mac.  (If it is re-entered on the Mac, it gets duplicated on the iPhone.)  Checking the iCloud website show that a new iPhone appointment is getting as far as the cloud; but apparently no further. 
    I think you'll agree that this makes iCloud calendar syncing next to useless.
    This may not (as you imply) be caused by the use of the 3G connection.  However in the two households in our family we have one with wi-fi and essentially the same setup, except that the iPhone is a 3GS.  In the wi-fi setup, a new appointment entered on the iPhone calendar promptly shows up on a Mac.
    If the sync problem has nothing to do with the mode of internet connection, how might it be cured?

  • Help!  I accidentally deleted Apple Application Support... is there any way I can download it and reinstall it without deleting and reinstalling itunes?

    My huband is going to be so ****** if I have to uninstall and reinstall itunes.  PLEASE HELP ME!  If he loses his playlists or any other information it will be devastating... he has a radio show!
    When I try to open itunes it says that it won't open woithout Apple Application Support and says I need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.  2 things I'm afraid will happen.
    1.  He doesn't want to update to the latest itunes because all his friends told him not to because the newest version *****.
    2.  He might lose all his playlists and also even if he doesn't los his itunes library he might lose data and information about all the songs.
    I just really need to open itunes WITHOUT uninstallign and reinstalling it.  Is there ANY way I can do that?

    I also googled this question.  Someone said if I download quicktime it comes with apple application support.  Does that solve my problem?
