The wandering blade is right in all but one thing - Trumpets do need tuning! They have two adjustable pieces of tubing - extending these extends the distance the air has to travel meaning the notes come out flatter - the opposite makes them sharper. If your trumpet isn't tuned to the other instruments in a band (not that you have a trumpet or a band) you'll sound horrible!
Anyway, I'd recommend buying a Seiko tuner which clips onto the end of your guitar and works off vibrations. They are expensive but so accurate and visible during dark gigs - they also work on my Mandolin and Bass Guitar and my 12 String as well as all my six strings.

When tuning the 12-string, the E, A, and D are all tuned with both strings at the same octave. The G, B, and light E strings have one tuned to a 6 string guitar and one string tuned an octave higher.
I hope this helps.

It is as easy as tuning two 6 string guitars to eachother. The 12 string only has 2 of each string so just tune both E strings to the 6 string's E and so on.....
Or buy a tuner.................
Or buy a trumpet - they don't need tuning!

Only use the thicker strings to tune by on the 12-string (if the 12 string is tuned).
If you're trying to tune the 12-string to a 6-string, each of the strings is just an octave higher, so you're listening for the same note.
This probably explains it better than I ever could: http://www.personal.psu.edu/users/f/p/fpm108/glw/lessons/lesson2.htm
