Messges from my iphone and ipad appear as different senders
I recently got an iphone and i just started using the Messages app on my ipad. I noticed that when i send a message, the recipient sees messages from my ipad in a different conversation than lnes sent from my iphone even though they are synced with icloud. How can I make them both appear like messages coming from my phone? I think i can make ones from my phone look like my ipad by sending messages through ly apple id but i dont want to have all of my old texts in one conversation and have new texts in another if that is possible. I am using an iphone 4 with ios6 and ipad 1 with ios5, all with the latest updates. Thanks!
You are probably starting new iMessage conversations from your phone number on your iPhone. However, addressing iMessage conversations from your phone number on an iPad requires iOS 6. Since you have an iPad 1 you won't be able to do this as the highest iOS is 5.1.1. Your only option to keep them the same would be to change your iPhone settings to start new conversations from the same email address as your iPad is using (in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive). If you do this, be sure the people you are texting have this email address for you in their contacts so they can identify the message as coming from you.

Can I create separate folders to save media on my Airport Time Capsule? Issue is I have a 256GB HDD Mac Pro Retina which is almost full. TC will only take backup of my HDD. So where would I save my photos and videos from my iPhone and iPad?
It is a hard one.. laptops with small drives are a pain.
What you need is a home media server.
Some people use a PC running itunes for cost.. but that is nothing like as good as using a Mac mini.. they make great little HTPC device.. you can plug in large hard disks and store all your files and media. And share it with the network.. Read up apple's instructions on home sharing.
https://www.apple.com/au/support/homesharing/
For cost you can buy a mini from 2011 or 2012.. I would not recommend earlier ones.. the advantage of 2012 is they have USB3 ports. But you will pay more for them.. new mini is not as useful.. they have soldered in memory and you cannot upgrade.. the old mini was the most easily modified mac in the whole range. Uses little power and can be bought for a $300US for a good one second hand.. maybe less. -

The iPhone and iPad do not have user serviceable batteries. Battery replacement is handled by Apple. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar if battery replacement is required.

Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available. Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?
I have the 6500A without plus and it is with a LAN cable connected with my Router.
First make sure you have the latest printer firmware installed.
Next restart the printer and the Router.
I had the same. Problem but it went away after rebooting the Router. -
How do I transfer my pictures and videos from my iPhone and IPad on the time capsule?
How do I transfer my pictures and videos from my Iphone and IPad onto my time capsule?
You cannot use Apple TV.. again the TC is not a media device and has no media extensions.
You can store video files on the TC.. but the ATV must work either via airplay so you run the video on an ipad for instance and send the screen view to the apple tv or you have itunes running on a computer.
BTW a WD live TV can play video files from a TC.. because it is a true media player.. the Apple TV is not a media player.. it is a streamer. -

My photos stopped transferring to my PC from my Iphone and Ipad
I went on Itunes and removed my Iphone from the list of devices on Itunes in the Cloud. Now I cant figure out how to add it back.
I'm trying to get my photos to transfer to my PC from my Iphone and Ipad, but they suddenly stopped transferring.For the benefit of the other 3 people with this issue I've found my own answer.
I have read that both devices need to have at least 20% charge and both need to be connected to wifi.
Somehow it is only after retreading this several times over the course of a week that I actually check that "both" devices
are in fact on wifi. The iPhone was not on wifi but still connected to 3G. Simple as that. It's all working again. -
Can I play music or youtube music! from my iPhone and iPad on my Sonos through Apple AirPort Express.
I believe I can, although it is not totally clear how to do so.
Can I use an old Apple AirPort Express (1st generation) or do only the newer versions of the Apple AirPort Express do the trick ?Hello Paz5glenda,

How can I

You can use your iPad charger to charge your iPhone 4S. Not recommended to use your iPhone charger to charge your iPad. So, use your iPad charger to charge both.

I would like to use the same apple account for my iPhone and iPad....I messed up and made two! How can I merge the two or move everything from the smaller account into the other without loosing my content? Please I'm new to all this! I have had my iPhone for less than six months!
There is no way to merge accounts. Sorry. You'll have to choose the "bigger" account and take a loss on the smaller account's purchases.
