Wifi network and iphone accessing to printer
Hi, I have a wifi network (non mac) at home onto which is related a HP printer.
Can I access the printer through my Iphone, say to print a pdf file received via e-mail that I oppened on my mobile device for example ?
Not really, no. The iPhone does not have printer drivers, so you cannot print documents, etc., from it. With an HP printer with Wi-Fi, you can print photos (only photos, not documents) using an App from HP:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=299531647&mt=8
Also, note that you can take a screenshot on your iPhone (quick press of home and sleep/wake buttons), which is saved as a photo, and that can be printed using the above app. But, you are limited to one iPhone screen per printout.

I just bought "print n share pro" app and it dosen't seem to find our printer on our wifi network (a non-wireless HP printer attached to HP PC). What do I need to do to set this up?
I can only tell you that I had a couple of apps that worked perfect before but when ios 5.0.1, apple closed whatever way the apps used to print....Print Central was one....the developer. at least this one, said they could not do anything about it...they only recommended printing to PDF...
But I have a dedicated file server ( steream music and movies ) and I installed FINGERPRINT on my server and now I can print from my ipad, iphone to any printer on my server -

My iphone 5 does not appear to be remembering my home wifi network and connect to it automatically. I have to reconnect manually each time. My other iphone (4s w/iOS6) has no such problems. Any suggestions?
It's not a bug in iOS 6, and it won't be fixed. It's usually caused by your phone having been paired to 2 different networks with the same SSID. So it needs to ask which one you meant. Occasionally be corrupt data in the network settings, which is why Allan suggested Forget This Network.

After I connect my iPhone (3GS 5.0.1) to any Ad-hoc wireless Network then walk away out of the reach of my wifi network, my iPhone can't find any wifi Network afterwards, only by turning off the iPhone completely and turning on again.
switching off wifi and on again or going into airplane mode did't help!
This problem happens only with ad-hoc wifi networks not with normal ones.
(Ad-Hoc network was created on XP Computer)Welcome to Apple Discussions
Sorry, but the 169.x.x.x IP address is internally generated by the iPod (and iPhone) and indicates that a network has been detected but no IP address has been issued. Your friends iPhone was not connected to your ad hoc network either - it connected to the internet through the 3G network.
You should read through the Vista help screens on ad hoc networking for some insight how this works. You should be able to get some ideas there.
In the mean time, $40 or less will buy you a very capable wireless router with four Ethernet ports and will simplify your network tremendously. Having used Windows ICS for a long time, the addition of a router and a real network simplified things so much. -

My iphone 4s does not detect any wifi networks but the apple genius said that the wifi signal seems to be fine but it just is not detecting any wifi networks and because I cannot find my receipt for the phone and the apple store only dates back purchases up to 18months ago, is there a way i can obtain my receipt?
If your warranty is up, the replaced iPhone will have a 90 day warranty.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service Fee listed below.
Please note Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fees from your carrier may be different than those listed below.
iPhone Model
Out-of-Warranty Service
iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
iPhone 5
£ 216.44
iPhone 4s
£ 166.44
iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
iPhone 3G
£ 126.44
The Out-of-Warranty Service Fee includes a £ 7.44 shipping fee, which applies only if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in British pound sterling and include VAT. iPhone Out-of-Warranty Service may also be available from your wireless carrier. Pricing may vary.
When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorisation for the maximum service fee listed above. This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare product coverage, whichever is longer.

My iphone wifi problem wont detect any wifi networks and wont detect any bluetooth networks.
my iphone wifi problem wont detect any wifi networks and
wont detect any bluetooth networks.https://support.garmin.com/support/searchSupport/case.faces?caseId=%7Bb62e0460-4 d48-11e3-f27b-000000000000%7D from the Garmin Support site. The iPhone 4 is not compatible because it does not support the low energy bluetooth transfer that the iPhone 4s and later do.
It should connect properly with your iPad mini, but it requires an App. Also mentioned on Garmins' site. -
I can't connect to wifi network and bluetooth on iPhone 4S. Need help. Have already rebooted everything and reset network setting
I have the same problem; tried a phone restore, both restoring data and setting up as new phone with factory settings, reset all settings, re-boot, remove apostrophe, put in fridge, you name it!
I think there's quite a few iphone 4s users with the same problem!
I called Apple they said it's a hardware problem, but it has worked for nearly two years; they say go to the Apple store and they can provide a replacement phone for approx. £150!
I've been into the O2 shop where I bought it and they knew the problem exactly; said they had sent a few phones off for repair and had them back awith a report they cannot fix it because it's a software problem!
An assistant in the shop had the same issues; logic says it's a software problem and hopefully Apple will fix it with a patch but at the moment they seem to be avoiding everyones comments!
If anyone else has any ideas these would be appreciated? -
My WiFi on my iPad has been getting poorer recently, and two days ago stopped working completely. I have reset the network settings, and when that didn't work I restored my iPad. I still cannot find or access WiFi networks, and if I do, it fails. Help!!

I took out the wifi location data from the consolidated file and plotted into google maps. Clearly, not all those wifi networks are in areas or really close to areas I've been to, yet somewhat close. Does it mean that if I am within a range of a wifi network my iphone will not only collect location data of that particular wifi network but also all others that are within reach of that wifi network and so forth?

I'm using the "Find my IPhone" app on my iPad and it can't even locate the iPad I'm using, not to mention the iPhone I'm looking for. They are both listed as devises, it just says they're both offline, which I know is wrong. I'm on a WiFi network and location services are turned on. Ideas?

WiFi Networks and an iPod Touch.
I have seen many comments about WiFi networks and the seemingly impossibility of the iPod to connect to some.
However, I have not come across a solution to my issue - there may have been one but I confess I've not been successful at finding it!
I have set up a home network. At first I used an Airport Extreme but then it died so I set things up with a NetGear DG834GT. The home network uses a WPA2 password.
At home no problem - my MacBook Pro (Core2Duo), my son's iMac i7, my 2nd Gen iPod Touch (4.2.1) and my iPad 2 all connect great to the WiFi network. I can surf the web etc etc. I'm a happy bunny.
When I'm out and about I often use my iPod Touch to get access to the web and my e-mails etc using WiFi. Most networks are secured meaning you have to type in a password. Hotels are like this and usually there is no problem once the front desk gives me the password. The unsecured ones are often WiFi Zone Hotspots where you have to pay to continue. I don't usually bother with these.
Some sites though offer unsecured, free access and free internet use - coffee shops in particular. A coffee shop near me has such a network and I have absolutely no problem connecting. However, I have come across a few networks which show up in the "Available Networks" list complete with name etc. And yet when you select this network and try to join I get the message "Unable to join such and such Network. Obvioulsy with no network connection there is no internet etc.
Usually I simply ignore this problem and wait until the next WiFi network is available (when I get home?). Not quite so reliable if home is 3000 miles away!
But does anyone know why there are some networks that I cannot join? Is there a solution for this that I can carry out? I've tried the usual things like resetting the iPod, forgetting the network etc. Obviously I do not have access to the router as this is owned and operated by the company/enterprise concerned.
Not a show stopper by any means but an irritation nevertheless. Incidentally, there were also a few networks recently on my travels where both the Touch and the iPad behaved the same. i.e. I couldn't join some networks with either device.
Thoughts?Interesting hypothesis B-rock. I could try contacting the network administrator but my guess is that I'll be met with a blank look when I ask for that! Still can't be bad to try!
Another piece of "anecdotal" evidence for you. At the local garden centre (which is part of a chain) I used to be able to connect - no problem. Then suddenly all connections failed - at all locations. I am leaning towards believing that they have changed routers to more "modern" ones and for some reason these new routers won't allow connection to an iPod/iPad etc. As yet I cannot confirm this or otherwise and unless someone comes up with a bright idea I'm left with the feeling that unless the network administrator recognises that he/she needs to create a network that works with iPads/iPhones etc we're doomed. I noticed that the next table over using a PC had no problems! Grrrr.
