Can I sync iPad on two computers?

Is it possible to sync them using both my MBP and my iMac?

I've detected a slight difference in iTunes behavior trying to sync an iPhone & iPad on two computers. There's been much written about doing this with the iPhone and I've settled into groove over the last year and a half where I sync music and photos at home and just sort of use the work set up to backup and charge. But syncing Apps is something I've always done in both places. However, when I tried this with iPad the dual set up doesn't play nice and even unchecks the Sync Apps box at work.

Can't sync iPad after iOS upgrade to7.0.2 - repeated authorisation prompt - using admin profile, file SC info does not exist

Hello,
After I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 I can't sync iPad mini with PC (on Windows XP). I keep getting the folowing message: "The iPad could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchase items on this iPad". I tried everything:
1) De-authorizing and rebooting (about 100 times);
2) De-installing and reinstalling itunes;
3) Deactivating the firewall;
4) Run Diagnostics (result - all works fine including sync);
5) Tried to look for the "SC info" directory or file everyone is referring to in the Computer (Hidden files) of the iTunes directory - nothing;
6) Ticking and unticking the |Sync over Wi-Fi" option;
7) Changing backup from iCloud to this Computer and back.
I am using the admin account on my PC - doesn't help.
I cannot sync anything at all.
BTW - on the PC and on the iPad - everything that is there plays OK. I can get stuff from iStore both from iPad and from the PC - but I can't sync the two.
It looks like an iOS 7 bug to me - any ideas or advice?
Thanks.

No I have tried multiple connections, at home, at work, and even at my church but to no avail. For example I have recently purchased a CD from Itunes using my computer, but my ipad will only play it from the cloud. I've tried to download straight from my Ipad and that too does not work. When ever I try to plug the Ipad into the computer a window pops up and says that the sync has failed. If I try to drag the file to the Ipad it will say it's loading than just quit before it transfers. hmmm. I hope they get this bug fixed some. would really like to have that CD to isten to on the go. Another issue I am no having is the apps are having trouble updating. I have tried to turn off auto update and do it manually and that too is failing.

Sync nano to two computers?

If I have duplicate my iTunes files and folders on two computers can I sync a nano with both computers?
The reason I ask is that my PowerBook that I usually sync with does not have USB2 and I can get a USB2 PCI card for my PowerMac. I was hoping that I could do the inital sync on the PowerMac and do subsequent syncs on the PBook.
Thanks in advance.

You need to put your Ipod into manual mode to sync it with multiple machines. To do this you need to connect it to the original computer click on "Display Ipod options" or edit>preferences>ipod>select manual sync. Between two computers there is no way to auto sync but hopefully manuel will work for you.

Syncing podcasts on two computers

Is there anyway to sync podcasts on two computers without download them twice? I have an iMac, a Macbook, and an iPhone. I'd like to be able to download recent podcasts to either computer and have them show up on both computers so I don't have to worry about which computer I sync my iPhone with. I have 'Home Sharing' turned on, but it doesn't seem to help.
Sorry for the convoluted question. I hope it makes sense.

If they are purchased songs and both computers are the same i.e. both Mac or both PC, then you should be able to hook up the iPod to one, turn off auto sync and manually manage music. Add the purchased songs to the iPod and next time you hook the iPod up to the first computer it will ask if you want to transfer purchased music not on that computer. Do that, then you can turn auto sync back on without losing everything.
Another way to go is to make a CD/DVD back up of your purchases and then use that to transfer everything to one computer. You might want to do this anyway so there is less a chance of losing all your purchases.

Hi AndrewHISC
We would need to cancel one of the subscriptions and then you could sign up again using another ID.
Let me know if you wish to proceed with this.
Kind regards

HT4623 can' t sync ipad to pc/ error message says ipad needs to be updated to itunes 11.1/ its new / i just downloaded iso7

i can't sync ipad to pc/ error message says i need to update to itunes 11.1....i have tried can't seem to/ ipad is 3 months old has iso 7.2 its as updated as know how to update

Do as it says. In order for iOS 7 to PC sync to work right, you need to have iTunes v11.1.1 on the PC.
So download it ON THE PC and update:

Thanks for that, that was my first suggestion but he wants to not email either. His problem is he used his old nokia to do it and it was fine, now anything other than that he thinks is too much hassle.

Hi nprguy,
It sounds like an earlier version of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software installed on your PC may be conflicting with this installation.
I would advise uninstalling both versions of the BlackBerry Desktop Software then reinstalling the latest version.
The following KB articles should provide more information on the issue.
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when uninstalling BlackBerry Desktop Manager www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10220
"Error 1316" InstallShield error is encountered when uninstalling or upgrading the BlackBerry Desktop Software

Thanks.

I downloaded throught Adobe the Elements 13 two be utilized in two computers, one PC at home and one Mac Laptop, as I did always in the old versios. Someone knows if I buy the CD can be used in the two computeres?

The serial number for the version purchased on cd can be used for two installations: Mac and PC or Mac and Mac or PC and PC.
The serial number for the downloaded version can be used only on two PCs or 2 Macs (generally), depending upon the version purchased.

How can I sync iPad with Outlook?

How can I sync iPad with Outlook?

Connect your iPad to your computer and open iTunes. Look under 'info' and you may need to scroll down. The option will be there to sync your outlook calendar (or more) with the iPad. Choose what you want and sync to 'save' the settings.

Can't sync calendars on two Macs since iOS4

I just upgraded my Touch (2G) to iOS4, and things are basically okay except for Calendar Syncing.
I've got a home computer as my source for all media plus Contacts and Calendar. I've got a work Mac that I just sync Contacts and Calendars. I'm using manual syncing. This has been working fine, until today. Now, my home computer will not update to include the work computer stuff, and in fact, it lost the work events it had on it previously. I've synched between the two machines multiple times, but it doesn't "take" on the home computer. In fact, it appears that syncing with the home computer takes the work events OFF of the Touch until I resync with work.
And yes, I choose "Merge Data" for all syncs.
Both computers have the same calendars.

I am seeing the same issues. I have a G5 Power Mac and MacBook Pro and a iPod touch that I am syncing between the two computers. I have not tried doing this before IOS 4.0 as I just got the iTouch.
Anyone know if it is possible to sync a calendar between one Mac and the iPod Touch and then have the iPod Touch sync the calendar on the second Mac. I did this between these two Macs using my Palm Centro (using palm desk top on each Mac) AND a Dell PC at work. All three computers had the same calendar info and making a change on the Palm would change the data on all three computers.

Problem syncing Mail between two computers

I know this is a well worn topic and I've read the posts on syncing mail between two computers. Overall, I've gotten it to work pretty well. Whenever I move from one computer to another, I copy my ~/Library/Mail folder to my thumbdrive and sync it w/ the same folder on my other computer before I fire up Mail on it.
But here's the problem: I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on one of my computers (let's call it computer A). This apparently gives new message numbers to the messages. Things worked great on computer A after that.
Then I synced the mailbox with my other computer, computer B. On computer B, the change in mailbox numbers apparently was not recognized. Every message in the "sent" folder gave me the message that I needed to go online and download the message. So I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on computer B. Things then worked great.
Then I synced back with computer A and the same thing happened. Every message in the sent folder gave me the "download from server message."
It seems that I'm in some sort of infinite loop. The rebuild on one computer is not recognized by the other computer. Clearly, there is some file somewhere that contains info that's not being conveyed when I sync the ~/Library/Mail folder.
Any suggestions??

That is interesting. To that effect I have thrown together this Applescript:
(CAUTION... do not run this script, experimental only!
set flashDrive to "FLASH"
tell application "System Events" to exists process "Mail.app"
if the result is true then tell application "Mail" to quit
-- copy files to mounted disk
do shell script "rm -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
do shell script "cp -r ~/Library/Mail /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/"
do shell script "cp ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
--copy files to userfolder
do shell script "rm -r ~/Library/Mail"
do shell script "cp -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail ~/Library/"
do shell script "cp /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/com.apple.mail.plist ~/Library/Preferences/"
Problem is, I don't know how to tell the script which version of mail data is older or newer. If you know of such a way let me know and I'll script it in, otherwise the user is stuck with manually choosing what to copy to where.
And as we all know, any user choices are error-prone.
