Hello Halfback71,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
Best of luck,

Problem with IPad/IPhone

Hi,
I have a problem with the functioning of an animation on IPad / IPhone, here's an example http://www.mvmarine.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=62&Itemid=71&lang=it
holding down one of the arrows, the boat should rotate.
With other devices work perfectly, but with IPad / IPhone often works in spurts, sometimes Safari chrash.
I made this other version http://www.mvmarine.it/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=117&Itemid=84&lang=it
where the animation part to click, but I still have the same problems.
Can you hel me?
Thanks

On my iPad when I hold down on the rotate buttons it does rotate but I see that you have the same problem that I do regarding the iPad menu appearing when holding a button for more than a half second or so. Do you have any idea how to prevent the (Copy | Select | Select All) menu from popping up on the iPad?

Itunes don't sync Outlook calender with IPad/IPhone

When I use Itunes to sync Outlook 2013, installed on Windows 8, with IPad/IPhone it will not sync the calender, but the contacts sync very well.
What do I do to solve the problem?
AND ICloud is NOT a solution.

Hey there Tommy,
It sounds like your contacts are syncing without issue, but your calendar info is not. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:
Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010

How do I replace address book on iMac with iPad/iPhone contact info?

I've been using my iPad and iPhone to record contact information, and they sync with each other via iCloud. I realize now I should have recording this on the iMac and then syncing with the other devices.
But at this point, I'd like to replace all address book information on my iMac with the iPad/iPhone contact information. What's the best way to do this? I'm concerned that, while trying to sync either device with the iMac, I might somehow do the opposite - replace contact info on the device with address book info from the iMac.
I appreciate any suggestions.

Start by backing up the contacts on your Mac by opening Address Book (Contacts) and going to File>Export>Contacts Archive, save this on your desktop. Then download the app My Contacts Backup to your iPhone and use it to back up your contacts as a vCard attachment to an email. Send this email to yourself. (Note: if you have >500 contacts you'll need to either purchase and use the Pro version, or follow the instructions listed under "Contacts...iCloud.com Contacts" in this guide to dowload them from icloud.com: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4910.)
I'm assuming at this point that you are NOT syncing contacts on your Mac with iCloud. If you are, do not perform the steps in this paragraph. Assuming you are not syncing your Mac contacts with iCloud, open Address Book (Contacts), go to View>Groups, then click on All Contacts. Click on a single contact, then go to Edit>Select All (Command-A) to select all contacts. Now press your delete key to delete them. Your Mac Address Book (Contacts) should now be empty. Now open the My Contacts Backup email on your Mac and double-click the attachment to import the contacts from your iPhone to your Mac Address Book (Contacts).

How to configure iTunes for travel with an iPhone?

While I keep iTunes and iPhone on my primary iMac, I'm going to be doing some travel and will need to make adjustments for keeping my iPhone backed up on a new MacBook Pro I'll be taking with me. I do not want to add any songs from my current iTunes library or pictures from iPhoto to the MacBook Pro as these are both already on my iPhone.
However, I need to know how to configure iTunes on the MacBook Pro with just a bare installation so I can keep my iPhone apps in it and make a backup every night, but not lose the pictures and music currently on the iPhone. IOW, I want the iPhone to remain unchanged (keeping the pictures and songs), but simply backup only the apps each night when I plug it in. I'll unplug it after the backup and use a regular charger and switch users on the MBP so my wife can do the same with her iPhone.
The only reason for doing this is insurance while traveling that if we need to restore our apps for any reason on either phone, we'll have the backup on the MBP. I'm concerned that if I uncheck photos and music on the MBP iTunes sync area, I'll lose them both on the iPhone until I return home and sync again with the primary iMac. Thanks for any tips.

The accelerometer on the iPhone is designed to respond to normal gravity forces on the surface of the Earth. However, I have found that the behavior of the accelerometer changes dramatically under other gravitational conditions.
For a great laugh, if you take someone who has just bought an iPhone to a higher-gravity environment, Jupiter for example, and ask them to rotate their iPhone while using Safari, the overloaded springs in the accelerometer will only sluggishly switch the screen from vertical to horizontal.
Their expression will say it all: "wait a second, I just bought this thing, and you're telling me it doesn't just snap to horizontal like in the commerciall??!!"
"Relax, dude, you're on Jupiter! It works great on Earth."
It's a hilarious gag. Gets them every time.
To really mess with someone's head... I took a buddy of mine to the event horizon of a supermassive black hole where the gravity waves were so great the accelerometer was completely overhwelmed and unresponsive. The screen simply would not change from vertical to horizontal no matter how long you waited. Well! You should have seen my buddy's face. He had bought the iPhone the day before and was just about ready to return it even if it meant swallowing the restocking fee!!! It was hilarious.

Internet Explorer 11 bookmarks not syncing with Ipad/Iphone

Hello. I have an Iphone 5 along with an Ipad Mini. Both are updated to the current IOS 7.1.1. I am using Internet Explorer 11 on my Toshiba Laptop for syncing booksmarks and such through Icloud to my devices.
I am having an issue with the bookmarks on my Toshiba laptop syncing with my Ipad and Iphone. Both my Ipad and Iphone book marks sync together in perfect unison, but my Internet Explorer bookmarks do not sync.
What I have tried:
Shut down/Restart all devices
Turn off safari in Icloud for Ipad/Iphone
Restarted internet application on all devices
Unchecked, then rechecked the box for syncing bookmarks in Icloud
Deleted synced bookmarks on Ipad/Iphone, then re-added them through Icloud
Once I delete the synced bookmarks, the bookmark tab on the Iphone/Ipad are empty, but once I sync them back up, the old bookmarks come through.
My main goal:
I want my Toshiba laptop bookmarks to be the exact same as my Iphone/Ipad bookmarks. I want my Ipad to be the center of attention essentially, followed by the Toshiba laptop and the Iphone, meaning I want the Ipad to be the base for all the bookmarks, then the Iphone and Toshiba laptop can follow suit and take the bookmarks from the Ipad and transfer them to the laptop and Iphone. Currently, I have many of the same bookmarks on both the Toshiba Laptop along with my Iphone/Ipad, but the more recent add`s/deleted on either Iphone/Ipad or Toshiba laptop are not syncing.
Any help is appreciated.

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Problem synching aperture photos with iPad/iPhone ios8

Updated to Yosemite. Attempting to sync select photos (Aperture) with iPad Air (ios8) or iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1) with iTunes. When I click Photos in the left-hand column of iTuns I get is an endless loading loop icon in the middle of the screen. No option to select Aperture or the albums, etc. What's going on? Thanks, Bruce

Just two edits
1/ Sync works with the new Photos app.
2/ iTunes does display Apertures folder / project tree in the photos sync section (allowing you to pick what to sync) yet does NOT display the corresponding number of pictures

Traveling with your iPhone...

I'm traveling for the 1st time with my iPhone in a few weeks and was wondering if it is OK to put it under the airport security xray scanners. Has anyone had this experience? Will it "hurt" my iPhone?

I just put it in the little tray with my keys and other such objects. No problem from x-rays yet.
On another topic: it seems lithium batteries are now totally prohibited in checked luggage, so you HAVE to carry your iPhone on.

Are the chargers supplied with iPad / iPhone / iPod interchangeable?

Are the charges completely interchangeable? I don't want to have to carry round more than one!
Thanks

Hi Grahamfff,
Yes, they are interchangeable, but if you want to carry around just one, carry the iPad charger.
The iPhone chargers are lower power so will charge the iPad very slowly.
See the section Charging Tips
" iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter."

Traveling with iPad in Italy

I am traveling to Italy this summer. I have purchased a power converter, should I anticipate any problems charging my iPad or iPhone? Can I use a multiple plug with the converter and charge both devices? Thanks.

The iPad needs 10w and the iPhone 5w
The ipad Apple powerpack will happily charge both
it is 110-240v 50/60 cycles so will work anywhere on the planet with a suitable
pin convertor
( it will not damage the iPhone which will only take the charge it requires )

How to set up a HP1102w for wireless use with iPad/Iphone etc

Hi,
I purchased the HP P1102w last year and it's certainly not out of the box Airprint compatible, in fact it is very fiddly, but the following takes about 10 minutes using a mac. The besuty of this is it works with my BT homehub also and probably any wireless router including Airport Express and Extreme and no need to have your printer sat near the router or use the USB cable. My iPad3, Wife's iPad2 and both iPhone 4's work beautifully too.
I spent several hours before discovering this solution and eventually sorted all of this out using the following:
Firstly you will need to go to the HP Support site and download the HP Driver Software for OS 10.7 Here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-80684-5 &cc=uk&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=4110396&sw_lang=
Once this has been installed to the HP 1102w using the USB, you then disconnect the printer from the USB and using your MAC connect to it using Network Connections (Click on the Wireless Icon in the task bar). The printer should be listed here under 'devices', (Note this will disconnect you from the internet!!!).
Once you are connected directly and wirelessly to the printer the blue light should stop flashing and remain constantly blue!!!
At this point go and make a cup of tea or leave the printer for about 3 -5 minutes before the next step to allow the printer to initiaite and provide and IP Address.
Next stage is to print a 'Self Test / Device Configuration' sheet from the printer. Do this by holding the red X button until the green light flashes on the printer (About 10 secs), when you release the printer should print a page with two columns on. The right hand column should state an IP Address. (if the printer is 'not connected' or 'initiating' try again in a few minutes. If the IP Address is 0.0.0.0 then the printer is not connected and recheck the blue light is not flashing (it should be permanently lit).
Now you have the IP Address, open safari and type in the IP Address eg.... 192.254.1.87 with no http or www. just the plain IP Address.
This should then open the control pages for the HP Printer Set up. These are green and white web pages.
Go to the Networking Tab (Nearly there, promise).... Click on 'Wireless' on the left hand menu and then in the new page that opens do the following:
Change from 'AdHoc' to 'Infrastructure'
In the next section 'Network Name (SSID)' - the name will be the HP name.... in the available network box select your home network and then press the little box that looks like this -- [<<]..... this should then change the 'current network name (SSID) to your home network (If your network is not listed just use the refresh button).
Last stage is to change the 'Authentification'
Change this to WPA/WPA2 (or other if your router is set otherwise) and in the 'passphrase' box enter the security password for your router and then finally save the changes....
After this all you then need to do is go to settings on your Mac - Printer and Faxes and remove the HP 1102w from the list using the - sign. Then click the + button to add a new printer and hey presto you will find the HP1102w with Bonjour.... simply add and then you can print from your Mac, Ipad and Iphone with no further tinkering....
I really hope this helps and you don't get as stressed as I did....
Happy printing...
Steve
ps. Why couldn't HP just tell you this!!!!!!

HP LaserJet Professional M1217nfw no longer works with ipad/iphone's coupons.com and Grocery IQ apps

I have had this printer for several years. It worked flawlessly until a unilateral automatic HP firmware update bricked it at the beginning of last year. After months of inactivity, it started working again last week after I deleted and reinstalled everything from scratch.
Everything is back the way it was -- except the two apps I really value no longer work with it.
My iphone and ipad -- which both worked flawlessly with this printer for years -- now do not see the printer at all for several minutes and then it finally appears with a red warning button that says "printer not recognized"
I have not upgraded any OS. The only thing that changed was on HP's end.
I tried deleting and reinstalling the apps. No change.
I have HP's eprint software, but that does not help with these apps, as they use an internal printing mechanism and the actual coupon with the bar code is never visible on screen (and thus unable to be printed via another method).
This question was solved.

Hi @krenster
Welcome back to the HP Support Forums. I understand that there are two apps that no longer work with Apple’s AirPrint feature.
I know you didn’t mention that you were getting this error, but the troubleshooting steps for “What if a 'No AirPrint Printers Found' message displays on my Apple device?” in the Printing Over a Wireless Network with Apple's AirPrint FAQs document should help resolve the issue.
If the above doesn’t help, to better assist you, would you please supply some additional information?
How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet, or wireless)?
Are you able to print from other apps that support AirPrint?
What version of iOS are you using on your Apple mobile device? I’m asking because apps will send out updates making them no longer functional with older operating systems. For example the HP ePrint app on iTunes was updated on October 25, 2014 and now requires the iOS device to be a minimum of iOS 6.0 or later. I have checked the two apps you mention in the thread title, and the Grocery IQ app requires your Apple device to be a minimum of iOS 6.0 or later and the coupons.com app requires your Apple device to be a minimum of iOS 7.0 or later. If you are unsure how to check this, please follow the steps in Apple’s iPhone, iPad, iPod: How to find the software version
Has there been any changes to your network, such as a new router, or a new internet provider?
Thank you.
Regards,
Happytohelp01
