comment Does the D-Link DIR-857 support streaming Time Machine backups from multiple machines?
@IanC. You can still do all that with your current setup, and use the Time Machine as a switch that happens to do backups

@IanC. What needs do you have for your network that a Time Capsule or Airport Extreme won't handle?

comment Does PhotoStream copy videos too or just still photos?
Annoying, but true. I can understand why it's undesirable to upload, store, and download videos from an internet service, but you'd think Apple could have been clever and done something like Dropbox LAN sync and sent the videos over wifi if it detected another interested party on the LAN

comment Is there a way to have iOS remember passwords to HTTP authenticated sites?
Adding the username and password in the URL in a bookmark is clever - I can't find a way to do it on the device, but I'll try creating it on my Mac and syncing it over. Thanks!

Is it possible that it's already installed? You can set iCloud to automatically download apps to multiple devices when they're purchased.

comment What other browsers are available for iPad
I'm sorry, but this question is too open-ended. If you have specific requirements, feel free to post a software-recommendation with those requirements. If you're looking to compile a list, it needs to be done in a more curated manner.

It's standard OS X screenshot stuff. I know the screenshot doesn't really do anything, but the post looked a little short/bland.

comment What's the startup/reboot time for iPad (3rd generation) compared to other iOS devices?
@Moshe I don't think so, unless it's jailbroken, but maybe someone else knows? Might be a good question to ask.

comment Options Aren't Showing Up until I click the select element in iPad Safari Browser (Multi Select Form)
I'm sorry, but questions about programming or HTML are off topic on Ask Different, as per the faq. I suggest asking on Stack Overflow stackoverflow.com

comment How do I import files into GarageBand on iPod touch?
@TomBrito Make sure your Garageband song section length is set to "automatic" - tap that small "+" under the gear to change it. Once it's set to automatic, your entire file should be editable, assuming you have enough space on your device.

comment iPhone 4S using 3G to download songs from iCloud after iOS 5.1 update
@pmd Honestly I don't remember, and I don't have any 5.0 devices around to test. Would not be surprised if they changed it though, they did change the 3G download limit from 20MB to 50MB

Current girlfriend? Ask to borrow her phone and go into "iCloud" and turn off "Find My iPhone". Ex girlfriend? Remote wipe :)

Not that I can tell, the X doesn't appear if they're found for some reason.
