Can I link my iphone with an ipad?

I was looking at getting an iPad, but wasn't sure whether I'd be able to link my iPhone 4 with it. I wanted to ideally get a laptop so that I could update my iPhone etc. Could someone let me know whether I'd be able to update my iPhone on an iPad or will it just be a pc?
Thank you

only on a pc an ipad operate the same way as your iphone in that respect
you can only sycn, backup and upgrate os on a pc with both of them

    If you mean link using iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with the same ID on both of them, then turn on the data you want to sync.

  • How can I link my iPhone with a new MacBook if I have apps on the iPhone from 3 different Apple ID accounts?

    Since I live in three diffirent countries and I have 3 Apple ID accounts on my iPhone 4S. Recently I bought a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion installed.
    I am not sure that when I connect my iPhone with a new MacBook all my data (apps, music, podcasts, etc.) will be transferred from the iPhone to MacBook iTunes.
    So what should I do to transfer all my data to the new MacBook and to sync the data with iPhone as usual?

    Follow the steps here, but when you come to the part about "authorizing" this computer, you will have to do so for each account/Apple Id:

  • I can't link my iPhone 4S to my iPad air. I can't connect to a personal hotspot or Bluetooth link them! Any ideas?

    I can't link my iPhone 4S to my iPad air. I can't connect to a personal hotspot or Bluetooth link them! Any ideas?
    In settings under mobile (cellular) I've turned on mobile data, 3G and data roaming.
    Under mobile (cellular) data network APN details are filled in and I have tried reset settings all ready.
    What I'd like to do is link the two devices so I can use my phone's 3G on my iPad.
    I can't get either device to connect via Bluetooth with each other!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello Hollystorm1
    Check out the article below to setup your personal hotspot on your iPhone. Check with your carrier to ensure that is a feature that you can do with your iPhone.

  • I can't sign into ny iPad but I can sign into my iPhone with same password

    I Can sign into my iPhone with Apple id, however I can't sign into iPad. I have reset etc. but still to no avail

    What IP does your iPad show as having?
    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
    Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
    The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
    OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Google Public DNS
    8.8.8.8. 8.8.4.4

  • Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?

    Hello forum users,
    Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?
    I would like to back up and restore 4 different iPhones, 1 iPad, a MacBook and 1 MacBook Pro using the same single iCloud account.
    If so, how is this done?
    Many thanks

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

  • I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.

  • Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available.  Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?

    Just purchased a office jet 6500A Plus so that I can print from my iPhone and iPad. I can print form my iPhone but my iPad 2 tells me there is no air printer available.  Why does one device recognize the air printer but the other device does not?

    I have the 6500A without plus and it is with a LAN cable connected with my Router.
    First make sure you have the latest printer firmware installed.
    Next restart the printer and the Router.
    I had the same. Problem but it went away after rebooting the Router.

    Thanks!

    Only if you merge them together into one Address Book/Contacts and iPhoto Album(s), the iPad doesn't have individual logins/usernames (with their own unique data) as Mac computers allow.
