Apple Corps said:I've tried about 5 times - no go 4 me.
Well, let me report a good experience. I have an HP D110a wireless printer that was not one of the 5 HP printers that MacWorld had listed as being AirPrint compatible. But yet, this morning, my printer reported that a software update was available. And sure enough, it now prints from my iPod and my wife's iPad.
...Apple significantly scaled back the AirPrint functionality in iOS 4.2 ahead of its launch, the feature does allow for wireless printing directly to certain HP printers...
Hopefully this feature is still available in the 4.2 release and is therefore a useful first post.
Anyone know if there is a difference in video quality playback with AirPlay on ATV2 streaming from an iPhone vs. iPad?
trying to update my iPad, been out of town, just got back, and I keep getting this network connection interrupted messages every time I try to download the update.
Also it saying 4 hours to down load 550mb, WTF.
will try the iPhone 4 update
Note: 624MB 4 hours.
WTF apple, I know it is not my band width that is slow.
I don't understand what is so great about Airplay and Apple TV. My Mac already has my music, videos, etc... and I can already stream them to my AppleTV and control it with Remote, so I'm missing the earth-shattering kaboom here.
It's a feature. That's all. It's one of many. You might not can use it... oh well. I happen to love it and will use. One way is to bring my movie-filled 64GB 3G model to my friend's house along with the hockey-puck sized AppleTV and get our movie watching on!
Kaboom!
Can I use the new AppleTV with my mkv blu-ray rips and play through my HD flat screen via HDMI? I'm using PS3 Media server now, but I have to use a LAN cable from MacBook to PS3 and I'm going to start buying movies from iTunes Japan so I was thinking the ATV would be a nice solution.
Any ideas?
Thanks
As I said, both are primarily wireless base stations and as such 'route' a network connection to multiple devices. The Express is simply the cheaper more compact version of the two. Lots of people will use the Express as their primary router (and wireless base station).
You seem to imply that an audio port only makes sense on a small device that can be hidden close to a stereo system. But for a lot of people the cable or DSL modem, their wireless base station and their stereo will sit on the same shelf or at least very close together. They could not care less about an audio cable running from their base station to the stereo. Why force them to buy a second base station that will sit right next to their first one?
It made perfect sense to debut the AirTunes feature in small wireless base station. It made no sense to not add it to their other base stations in the next hardware revision, except for the aim of selling two devices where one would suffice.
lol it was always 12 for me from day 1.Wirelessly posted (Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_2_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.17.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.2 Mobile/8C148 Safari/6533.18.5)
Just a curious side note. Has anyone else discovered you can now have up to 12 apps in a folder instead of 9. Just trying dragging an app into one of your previously full folders. Sweet!

With the exception of a few extra camera-shot photos on my iPhone, and the ability to start watching a movie on my iPad and resuming it on my AppleTV, what's the big deal?
If Airplay could allow content to be streamed from the browser, this would be a big deal.
Just sayin'
I'm guessing I could just go to the Apple Store and set it up on a 4th Gen Touch in store, then delete my account info from it and active it on my 3rd Gen at home.

yeah, about that. A couple months ago, based on what apple said would be released as airprint, I "upgraded" two HP all-in-ones to Canon all-in-ones. That makes the shortfall in airprint capabilities a pretty big disappointment.
Hi!
Nothing to be excited about with this new release on an iPhone 3GS like mine.
Find my iPhone doesn't work, an iPhone 4G is required for that specific feature.
iPrint doesn't recognise my hp 309c whilst hp iPrint 3.0 used to on the previous iOS 4.1.
So I downgraded back to iOS 4.1.
Conlusion: iPhone 3GS owners, keep iOS 4.1![]()
If only the Apple TV remembered favorite networks... It's going to be a pain to have to manually enter the network name and passwords each time with that crappy remote...
If you can't get it on the 3G/3Gs I feel sorry for you because it's frikkin' awesome! Bye Bye Latitudie...Has anyone tried this yet? I'd love to get the free Find service on my 3GS.
