1) Depends on how you define prince, I guess. Aladdin got the entourage and the money and the clothes, but there's never any mention of what country or royal line he comes from.
2) It's never explicitly stated in the movie, and I haven't seen any of them besides the first one, but it seems that magic and wishes are somewhat equally powerful in that world. I mean, genies can be bound with those bracelets which I'm guessing were made by some kind of magic.

We were discussing this at katieliz's; within the metaphysics of the movie, it doesn't seem to be so much that genies are bound by some magic as that bondage is the native state of geniehood, as when Jafar becomes a genie the bracelets automatically reappear as part of the whole package.
