Why does iPhone 5 cost 199$ in US but 649€ in Belgium ? That is almost x4 !?!

The iPhone cost in the US is subsidized by the cell company. The cell company pays Apple the difference between the full price and $199 and then locks the buyer into a 2 or 3 year contract. Later this year Apple will start selling unlocked the iPhone5 and you will see the full price then.

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.

Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm?

Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm? which is quite unusual. For Exp, In case i lower down my ringer for some reason instead of silent and forget to increase before i sleep, my morning alarm also remains at the same ringer level volume at which i can miss the alarm. Is it due to some specific reason or i have missed something to change in settings. Other phone like Samsung etc, they have separate volume control for ringer and to an extent, Nokia rings for Alarm even if the battery is completely discharged.

I have booked an appointment at my nearest Genius Bar which is 40 minutes away next week, so do I need a reciept or is the warranty checked from the serial number?
No receipt needed.
and is it covered under Apple's 12 month warranty?
It very well may be covered, depending on what Apple finds.

Why does iPhone 5 shuts down in 2 C degrees? This should be inside operating temperature limits?

Hello,
Why does iPhone 5 shuts down with +2 C (celsius) degrees outside? This should be inside operating temperature limits? I´m living in Estonia and I was using iPhone 5 approximately 1 hour with +2 C (celsius) outside. Suddenly it just powered itself off with 25% of remaining battery. I was not able to switch it on again before warming it up inside the house.
I´ve been reading lots of similar complaints regarding other customers iPhone 5-s. Seems that the problem may be the aluminium back cover and thin, large-surfaced battery cause older iPhones are operating with same temperature just fine. Do you have any plan to fix this issue in the future?
Best regards,
Silver Siilak

You're not speaking to Apple, just your fellow users. The specs say it's good down to 0°C... sounds like you have a hardware problem, likely battery. Contact Apple, it's still under warranty.
Hint: NEVER put your personal info in a public forum. Edit your post to remove this info. Also, I'll ask the moderators to do it if you can't.

Why does iPhone iTunes shuffle engage spontaneously

Why does iPhone 4 iTunes shuffle engage spontaneously. I change the position of the shuffle and it turns itslef back on in the middle of songs.

Probably because you have Shake to Shuffle enabled in the Music settings.

HT1349 Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting?

Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting? It just started to do that recently. I've had iPhone5 for several months now and it just started to do that.
Before I could reboot without having to type apple ID password to start using my phone.

Could be part of Apple's new security procedures that were implemented this past week.

Why does iPhone videos take so long to come up on the Apple TV?

Why does iphone videos take so long to come up on the apple tv?
1080P has a large file size but are there ways to get it to start to play faster?
Hard wiring it into the LAN helped a bit but what is really slowing it down? WPA2?
Thanks,

could be the wifi speed as in 56Mbit vs. newer 300Mbit version
or interfearing from other wifi networks which use the same channel
or microwave or dect phones which also operate on the 2.4Ghz band

Why does Acrobat Standard 6.0 recognize scanner but Pro 9 will not?

I am running both programs on an Intel Mac (same machine), 10.5.8 Progam. My Acrobat Standard 6.0 pulls in the scanner immediately, but my Pro 9 will not recognize the scanner. Is there something I have to do to get the Pro 9 to recognize the same scanner?

Thank you so much for your patience and expertise. You spent a lot of time
on this with me. Maybe Adobe will fix the problem in the future! Good
luck to you. Joyce

Why does my usage add up to 9 but remaining is 18 on a 32 gb mini

Why does my usage add up to 9 but remaining is 18 on a 32 gb mini

You did not add in "Other".
What is "Other"
1. Cache for apps, browser, mail, Messages, Reading List
2. Saved games
3.Documents and data
4. Notes
5. Voice Memos
You can backup and restore to reduce "other" but they will start building up over time.

HT5824 why does my ipad say user name disabled, but on all other devices i can pog into itunes and icloud using my user name

why does my ipad say user name disabled but i can use my user name to log into itunes and icloud on other devices

At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.

Why does my PDF come out rotated when I haven't selected that?

Why does my PDF come out rotated when I haven't selected that?

What you are trying to do is a process that we call “refrying a PDF file,” a process that we at Adobe most strongly discourage. There are facilities within Acrobat itself that allow you to remove objects and crop pages without having to ruin the PDF by creating PostScript and then distilling that back into PDF, a potentially very lossy process. You lose all color management, all live transparency, and could have font problems in the resultant PDF file.
The Adobe PDF PostScript Printer Driver Instance is parameterized by joboptions set in its properties. These properties have a parameter for page rotation. If the options specify automatic page rotation, you may be getting these unexpected results on the basis of Distiller's analysis of each page and trying to second guess the orientation. You should also be aware that the PostScript generated by Acrobat (and Reader) is optimized for printing on a PostScript device, not for generation of PDF by distillation.
