Re: Printing from an iPad ?

2014-04-08 Thread Severin Crisp
Not quite the solution to your friend’s problem but worth drawing attention to 
HandyPrint which enables AirPrint for networked printers.   Thus I have a 
FujiXerox CP205(not wireless or AirPrint), running by USB cable to the USB 
socket on my Time Capsule which is the centre of my wireless network.  I 
installed HandyPrint from my iMac and from thereon in it is available 
wirelessly to my wife’s MacBook and our shared iPad mini from anywhere in 
range, irrespective of the state (sleep or not) of the iMac.  Super convenient.

 Hi folks,
 
 A friend of mine has just bought an iPad Air.
 She brought it to my place last night because she could not set up Gmail on 
 it.
 Took me about 5 minutes.
 I think sometimes Apple products are so easy to use that some people can’t 
 see the wood for the trees.
 Someone who has always used Windows tends to think everything must be 
 complicated.
 
 She has a Windows laptop that she still uses.
 When I asked her why she said “when I type documents in Word I can print them 
 from my laptop, but I can’t print from my new iPad”
 
 If she installs Pages is there any way she can print from the iPad ?
 
 The only internet connection she has is a wireless dongle plugged into her 
 laptop.
 She has no printer and says she prints any documents she needs on paper at 
 her local library.
 
 I WOULD IKE TO ENCOURAGE HER TO JUST USE THE IPAD FOR ALL HER NEEDS !

 Stephen Chape

Printing from Mavericks Maps app

2014-04-08 Thread Alan Smith
Can a street plan printed fom Maps in OSX Mavericks be enhanced for legibility 
for printing on a black  white printer?

The standard pastel colours of Maps don’t show at all, and street names are 
printed in pale grey.   Can’t see intersections, dead ends, etc.  Using a 
Brother laser printer.

Robert, I've recently gone through some similar travails.

My solutions were to log out of iCloud on each device, leave it a few minutes, 
then log back in.

Sometimes it seems to need a reset.

Hi Robert,

Have you gone through the steps in the two tutorials I did for you Offlist 
last November?
Setup iCloud on a Mac and iOS Devices.pdf  Calendar  Contacts Not Syncing 
to iCloud.pdf.

A) Calendar not syncing to iCloud
1. On your Mac Check the Calendars are in “iCloud” NOT “On My Mac”
When you create an event make sure it is on the “iCloud” Calendar (Look at the 
Calendar field - when you edit the event)

* Only Calendars and Contacts in iCloud groups will sync.

2. On your iPhone - check your Default account in
Settings  Mail, Contacts, Calendar  scroll to Calendars section - Default
Calendar - iCloud (Calendar in iOS7)

B) Contacts not syncing to iCloud
1. On your Mac - Open Contacts from your Dock
Contacts  Preferences - General (Accounts in Mavericks)  - Default Account: 
iCloud
Contacts  Preferences - Accounts - iCloud (enable this account is ticked)

In the Tutorial  Calendar  Contacts Not Syncing to iCloud.pdf 
Calendar not syncing to iCloud - Page 1  2
Contacts not syncing to iCloud - Page 2  3

Cheers,
Ronni

Mavericks 10.9.3 iTunes 11.1.6 Betas restoration of iTunes syncing for 'Contacts Calendar'

2014-04-08 Thread Ronda Brown
Hi WAMUG members,

For members who did not like being forced to sync 'Contacts  Calendar' with 
iCloud.

New to both OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.1.6 betas is the restoration 
of iTunes syncing for contacts and calendar data over USB and Wi-Fi, a feature 
deprecated from the current version of iTunes in favor of Apple's iCloud 
solution. Combined with the latest iTunes 11.1.6 beta, developers can now sync 
contact and calendar data on an iPhone, iPad or iPod with a host Mac.

Printopia is not free, but it does have the bonus feature of being able to send

Hi Peter,

But Printopia will not work on Windows computers and Stephen's friend only uses 
Windows computer and does NOT have a printer.
For a Windows computer there is a product called FingerPrint from Collobos 
Software. It's close in functionality to Printopia and works on both Windows 
and Mac platforms.
Setup and use is remarkably similar. You download the software on your computer 
and not your iPad. It  then shares your physical and virtual printers so that 
they can be accessed from the Print function on any iOS device.
But this still does not really help with Stephen's friend's situation. She only 
prints at a Library using their Printer... not at home.
Both Fingerprint and Printopia share printers with users on the same wireless 
network. 
If the Library where she uses the Printer to print is connected to a wireless 
network that she can join wirelessly, perhaps she might be able to print from 
her iPad.
I would suggest that Stephen's friend speaks with the Librarian at the Library 
where she prints.

Ronni

Re: Printing from an iPad ?

2014-04-08 Thread Daniel Kerr
The option is to look at a printer that has AirPrint built into it. With some 
of them you can print directly to printer (sometimes even without a wireless 
network as the printer creates it's own). I think from memory a few if the 
Epson models do this, and they can be fairly inexpensive (between $100 through 
to around $300/$400). 

Just a thought down the track. (Like if the printer stops working or time to 
get a new one )

 print to any printer accessible from your Mac, from your iPad. Unlike 
 HandyPrint, Printopia is not free, but it does have the bonus feature of 
 being able to send your print job as a PDF to DropBox or Evernote, which 
 alone makes it worth the price of admission.
 
 Hi Peter,
 
 But Printopia will not work on Windows computers and Stephen's friend only 
 uses Windows computer and does NOT have a printer.
 For a Windows computer there is a product called FingerPrint from Collobos 
 Software. It's close in functionality to Printopia and works on both 
 Windows and Mac platforms.
 Setup and use is remarkably similar. You download the software on your 
 computer and not your iPad. It  then shares your physical and virtual 
 printers so that they can be accessed from the Print function on any iOS 
 device.
 But this still does not really help with Stephen's friend's situation. She 
 only prints at a Library using their Printer... not at home.
 Both Fingerprint and Printopia share printers with users on the same 
 wireless network. 
 If the Library where she uses the Printer to print is connected to a 
 wireless network that she can join wirelessly, perhaps she might be able to 
 print from her iPad.
 I would suggest that Stephen's friend speaks with the Librarian at the 
 Library where she prints.
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni

 H Ronni! Hi Tim!
 Thanks for responding. 
 Tim -  Done that. :-)r
 Ronni - Followed the instructions to the letter,several times yesterday -no 
 luck! 
 Would you believe it? I thought I'd try one more time this morning before 
 replying and VOILA!  Success.
 I'm absolutely certain I followed all instructions carefully but can only 
 surmise that I'm getting daft in my dotage!
 Many thanks to you wonderful guys!
 Bob :-)

 Robert, I've recently gone through some similar travails.
 
 My solutions were to log out of iCloud on each device, leave it a few 
 minutes, then log back in.
 
 Sometimes it seems to need a reset.

 Hi Robert,
 
 Have you gone through the steps in the two tutorials I did for you Offlist 
 last November?
 Setup iCloud on a Mac and iOS Devices.pdf  Calendar  Contacts Not 
 Syncing to iCloud.pdf.
 
 A) Calendar not syncing to iCloud
 1. On your Mac Check the Calendars are in ?iCloud? NOT ?On My Mac?
 When you create an event make sure it is on the ?iCloud? Calendar (Look at 
 the Calendar field - when you edit the event)
 
 * Only Calendars and Contacts in iCloud groups will sync.
 
 2. On your iPhone - check your Default account in
 Settings  Mail, Contacts, Calendar  scroll to Calendars section - Default
 Calendar - iCloud (Calendar in iOS7)
 
 B) Contacts not syncing to iCloud
 1. On your Mac - Open Contacts from your Dock
 Contacts  Preferences - General (Accounts in Mavericks)  - Default Account: 
 iCloud
 Contacts  Preferences - Accounts - iCloud (enable this account is ticked)
 
 In the Tutorial  Calendar  Contacts Not Syncing to iCloud.pdf 
 Calendar not syncing to iCloud - Page 1  2
 Contacts not syncing to iCloud - Page 2  3
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni
