Wireless printing with my iMac and iPad...

I have a lexmark X4530 printer that I would like to set up for wireless printing from my iMac and iPad (mostly the iPad). I don't have the disk that came with my printer. I currently have the printer wired to my iMac and it is working fine. I tried to print from my iPad, it found the printer but says there is a connection error. I'm not sure what order to connect all this in. Do I set up printer wirelessly to my iMac first or can I just leave printer plugged into iMac and print from iPad wirelessly? Also I tried to use the wireless setup assistant that installed on the iMac when I first plugged in the printer, but it tells me (after entering in all necessary information) that there is a connection error. Please help!!

Repair your disk permission: http://bit.ly/OeD7U3

You need to turn on Printer Sharing on both the PC and OS X. I can't help you on Vista but in OS X it's System Preferences - Sharing - check the Printer Sharing box.

My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
There is not a wireless method for importing videos from the iPad's Camera Roll.

I want to get my parents setup with an imac and iPad. They are elderly and we live in different countries. I want to know what solution exists so I can be the remote administrator to maintain and keep them up and running .. I dont want anything fancy.

I would like to setup my eldery parents with an imac and ipad which I know will greatly help them in their daily life. The technology they love to play with whenever I visit, but they can never keep anything running or sync'ed unless I am around. Medical and other issues make this a real challenge for them. Unfortunately, I live in a different country and see them maybe once per year. I'm surrounded my apple products but never tried remote administration and wondered what I would need (software and hardware) to make this noble venture sucessful. Anyone out there has some experience or recommendations? I'm looking for something that is simple and reliable to implement ...

JokerGirl,
This is Scott J, I work for Intel and wanted to try and help you out. Sorry to hear about your current PC and your knee!
I agree with the bigger screen. I have the Samsung ATIV Smart PC with a screen 11.6" which is great to watch shows/movies! anything bigger is almost too big for a tablet (personal opinion).
Yes, most if not all tablets will have speakers and a headphone jack
You can watch YouTube
Only certain models have keyboards, you will want to specify this when making a purchase. Note: most keyboards are sold separately.
Covers are usually pretty easy to come buy, as well as screen protectors (clear plastic that covers and protects your screen from scratches, etc.)
Depending on the Operating System (Windows, Android, etc.) you will have access to an app store where you can buy and download content. Alternatively you can access your favorite sites to read news, get books, magazines, etc.
Hooking things to your tablet - different tablets will have different ports (USB, HDMI, etc.) Question to ask prior to making a purchase as some do not have ports (iPad). Back to my Samsung, I have several ports and do hook it to my TV
Tablets can run anywhere from $150-$1,000. The mid-range $400-$700 should fulfill all of your needs above and more!
Here's an article that might help you narrow down your search: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/high-tech-gadgets/5-tips-for-choosing-the-right-tablet....

I have a 1 TB Time Capsule on a wireless network with my iMac and my wife's MacBook Pro. The TC is almost full. What is the best way/device to increase storage capacity?

Replace the Time Capsule with one that has a larger hard drive. Or erase the one you have and start a new set of backups or backup one of the computers to a different backup drive.

Sync issues with LR5/iMac and iPad (IOS 8.1)

I have been using published folder to sync my photos with my iPad and iPhone, and for the past two years, it's been working fine but lately, something has gone awry. For some reason, now when I edit a photo in LR and it republishes the photo (as a jpeg), itunes simply doesnt see the phtot and it disappears from the folder on the ipad. Yes, the new publised photo is in the iMac and it appears just like the photos before and after it, but iTunes doesn't send it over. I have tried manually exporting these photos to a different folder to see if it will bring them over, but they still wont come. I've tried renaming as well, but still no luck; it's almost as if LR is creating some strange jpeg that iTunes cannot see.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Hi Royjmill,
Please connect your printer and your laptop/iPad to the same wireless router first. After that, you can print wirelessly. Thank you.

Trying to create a wireless connection with an Imac and ibook

I was connected to the internet using a DSL cable modem, and ethernet. My main computer is a iMAC G5 (bought last year) using Snow Leopard as the operating system.
I recently acquired an old iBook (2004) running on Panther.
It was connected to the internet using a dual type ethernet/wireless modem from Sympatico.
It used the built-in airport to link to the internet.
I bought this week a new Airport Express 802.11n Wi-Fi device.
I sucessfully hooked up my iMAC to a new wireless network I created, but was unable to connect
the old ibook. Did anybody else have this problem?
Is there a solution?

Also see Kernel_Modules so the module is loaded automatically at boot.
Seriously? I spent that many hours searching for my several error messages, trying to solve them, not wanting to ask for help without putting too much of my own effort into it and when I finally decide to ask for help it is when I didn't get a super essential thing like makepkg doesn't install and is merely to create .pkg.tar.xz?? Oh gosh... (;
Well, thank you! I guess I'll take my next change to use Google to find out how to use makepkg without --asroot. Yes, wl is loaded now and it's set as the kernel driver in use!
Unfortunately, after ip link set wlp2s0 up and typing dmesg | grep wl I get:
wl: module license 'Mixed/Proprietary' taints kernel.

And therefor: No firmware loaded. Google doesn't give much about this message but hints to PCI or PCI-Express not working as it should. I found this and tried starting with pciehp.pciehp_force=1 and ordered a modprobe acpiphp but nothing changed.

How to do wireless printing with aiport extreme and HP c4280

I admit it... I'm a dunce. I usually just plug the usb for the hp c4280 printer right into my macbook pro, but I want to finally be able to use it wirelessly. I have an airport extreme, and i know there is a usb port... how do I add the printer so i can print wirelessly?
obviously i can't just plug it in and print (right? becuase i tried and no go on the printing).
someone please take pity on me!
thanks!

Download the install Bonjour Print Services for Windows v2.0.2
Run the program. Hopefully, your printer will be recognized.
If it is, "install" the printer and try to print.
Keep in mind that if you have an All-in-One type of device, that only the print function will be supported.
Advanced features like copy, scan, maintenance, etc are not supported. You will need to connect the All-in-One directly to your PC if you need those services.

Wireless printing with airport extreme and uverse modem

Hi,
I'm trying to hook up an airport express so that my PC Windows 7 and Mac Mini mid 2011 can print to both of my laser printers.
The dell is network attached and the oki is network attached as well as usb attached directly to the express.
Both systems see the printers but when i send a print job from the MAC it just errors out. If i send it from the pc like normal then it still works ok.
I also can't see either printer from my iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1
Right now I'm running a UVerse 3800 router/modem and i have the airport express ethernet connected to one of the lan ports of the uverse router.
All printer drivers are current as well as the MAC software.
Help

The dell is network attached and the oki is network attached as well as usb attached directly to the express.
If both printers are Network-Ready, then there is no need to connect either to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) by USB. Being Network-Ready, these printers have their own built-in print servers which should be controllable by their front-panel interface and/or via a web-based interface.
I also can't see either printer from my iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1
Unless both printers are AirPrint-enabled, no iOS device will be able to print to them directly.

My new iPhone 5 will not sync calendars with my iMac and iPad.

Can someone please help me with this. I have ticked the sync calendars in the phone info tab. I tend to put appointments on both my iPhone and my iPad so I need all 3 talking to each other.

So I've always sort of had this problem with syncing my calendar and I think I finally figured out why. It seems I have two Apple ID's. My iCloud email address is [email protected] This is one Apple ID. My iTunes account has always been my Gmail email address. This is another Apple ID. Since I never use my Apple email address, I never considered that to be my Apple ID. I always considered what I used to connect to iTunes my Apple ID. So when I set up any iPhone I've ever had - when asked for my Apple ID I always put in my gmail address and it worked just fine. The problem is nothing was ever syncing properly with the cloud. Tonight, on my iPhone, I went to Settings > iCloud and then scrolled down to the bottom and deleted the account (this was my personal account at Gmail) Then I added [email protected] as my Apple ID. I then made sure everything in iCloud was switched on on the iPhone and just like magic, I went back to my iCal on the phone and everything syncs perfectly. It was a simple issue of having two Apple ID's. Make sure the email address you're using for iCloud is the Apple ID you're setting your iPhone up with and everything should work properly. Nobody has ever been able to figure this out for me. I hope this will help someone who has been as frustrated as I have been for such a long time now.

Hi Steve74Navy,
I believe that this printer can only be connected by USB cable. See online manual.

Can you pair with an iMac and an iPad at the same time?

If you have an iMac and an iPad, is it possible to pair the same Apple Wireless Keyboard with both of them, rather than having to buy two Wireless Keyboards?

I've kind of found an answer to my question, but I'm not totally satisfied. Basically, yes, you can use one Apple Wireless Keyboard with an iMac and iPad, but obviously not at the same time.
To switch the Apple Wireless Keyboard over from working with the iMac to working with the iPad, you first have to "Disconnect" the keyboard in System Preferences > Bluetooth. This frees up the keyboard, making it available for the iPad to access.

E-mail (Outlook) syncs to iMac and iPad, but not to iPhone. How can I get it to sync to all three devices?

My e-mail (Outlook) syncs to my iMac and my iPad. However, I can read e-mails on my new iPhone, respond to them, and even erase them, but when I go to my computer or iPad afterwards, they still appear unopened and I have to open each one and close it again so it doesn't show up as an unread e-mail. This does not happen with the iMac and iPad; deleting it on one of those deletes it on the other as well. What am I doing wrong?

I asked the hosts to relocate your question to the Using iPhone Forum. You should get helped there.
