Is it possible to load ipad with photos and songs before giving to someone as a gift? What account and pass to use?

I am planning to buy an Ipad for a special girl's birthday. I want to make a surprise and load it with her pictures and some songs I will choose. Question is: Is that doable? Will I need to create an username and password on iTunes? When she get the gift will she be able to keep the stuff I have added? Has anyone done that before?
Thanks!

So I will need to create a brand new Apple ID with password and give that info to her and tell her to change her password of course and the email address associated with the apple id. Does that make sense?
Problem is: if she already has an Apple ID, then all the stuff will be lost. Is that correct?

I have a problem, my wife has an ipad with photos , emails etc etc, she has recently got herself a new iPad Air, has now been using that for two or more months, more photos (new) more emails and other stuff. What she wants to do is get all she wants from ipad 1 to new ipad without finishing up with 2 of everything which happen on previous occasion. I realise that she needs to tidy up ipad 1 first and get rid of thousands of emails etc. I need help.
Thanks kiwihdrider

When we did iPhone thru same process finished up with two of most things pics and emails. The emails alone were over 2 thousand and wife reluctant to delete them all. I would and just sort pics. Any other ideas

I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
This is intensely confusing, sorry.

Answer.....
Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.

Can't seem to find an IPAD that let's me control my playlists together...or let's me organize my videos (Karaoke) the way I want to. Can someone help or direct me?
Can't even find the old IPad for sale...I have a MB292LL with 4.3.2 (8H7)

Here is a hint, google:
ipad video playlists
Found:
This discusses some options.
iOS 7 took away the ability to play videos continuously.
Two stand-alone apps.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/video-playlist-manager-lite/id399302583?mt=8
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/joobik-video-playlist-player/id502325425?mt=8
There was a hint of relabeling your videos to music video so you can use the itunes video playlists.
I have not tried this.

I'm not sure I understand the connection between iCloud and this problem. Is it simply a problem of coincidental timing (ie, the problem happened after you set up iCloud)? If so, there's almost certainly no connection between these two events.
Where are you getting the files you're trying to open, and what specifically happens when you try to open them?

If you decide to move up to an iPad with greater storage, is there a way to transfer all of your apps and information from the old to the new.

my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

Hi there,
This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.
iTunes Store Support
You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
Nathan

There is no solution. You have to provide the ID and password. There is no way around it. If the person you bought it from can't provide it, return it and get your money back.

How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.

Ok.
Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

Ok so sorry for clogging the community!! I figured it out - you have to copy your videos into itunes manually. I did that, synched and all good!

On the left, you should have a list of keychains and categories. If not, Select Show Keychains from the View menu.
Select the login keychain and All Items in the Category.
In the search field, type something that will help find your account keychains, like "gmail."
Select the keychain for your email account password and delete it.

You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

HT204088 How on earth did someone hack into my iTunes account and charge my visa/debit card? I didn't know until I got my bank statement with a fake phone # to call iTunes has this happened to anyone else?

How on earth does someone hack into my iTunes account and charge my visa/debit card? I got no emails from iTunes, so I know it's not them. This has happened twice to me and it's after I take out my credit information. I found out because of a bounced check, plus my bank statement had all the charges on it. They start small with just a few dollars but they do it every day sometimes twice a day. Then next to where they tell you who charged it, it says iTunes with a bogus phone# to call? In total they stole $224 from me. I was lucky my bank refunded the money stollen. Has this happened to anyone else?

People get their accounts hacked all the time. It's unfortunate, but true. To prevent this in the future, you need to:
- choose a good password, with a mix of upper and lowercase letter and numbers, that someone wouldn't be able to guess by stalking you on social media sites
- be aware of surroundings when entering a password, to be sure nobody's looking over your shoulder
- be cautious of what you do on open wifi networks (ie, networks that do not require a password to join)
- use a different password on each site
- use a password manager so you don't have to remember all those different passwords
