Can I sync my ipad with 2 different computers?
I bought an ipad for my father and I would like to set it up on my MacBook, syncing my iphoto library. He will then use it in his house and possibly sync with his PC. Will the content that I loaded on remain? can he sync to another computer after the initial setup?
Ipad will sync photos and itunes contetn with one and only one computer at a time. Syncing to another will delete the current content.

can't sync my ipad with itunes!i deleted "SC info"file and tried but it's not working!!it continously prompts me to authorize my computer!please help me out?
I'm having the same problem with my 4S. I have to constantly reboot my iMac or turn off my phone a few times to get it to sync. Before when I had 5.1.1 everything seemed to work just fine. I'm sure its a bug......
Both my ipads running 5.1.1 have zero issues syncing via wifi or directly plugged in. -

I want to sync my iPad with a new laptop, so I can get rid of the old computer. I have already downloaded all the itunes content on the new laptop, but when i go to sync, it tells me that itunes will erase and copy all the apps from the new library. The 2 computers are on the same account, so is there a way to copy the apps (including app data) onto the new laptop, instead of vice versa?
See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Can I sync my ipod with multiple computers using home share?
Once I homeshare all my computers, can I sync my ipod with any of them? Or do I always have to sync using the same computer.
What kind of iPod do you have?
For most iPods you can click Manually manage music on the summary page in iTunes. Check out Apple's document -> Using iPad or iPod with multiple computers.

I am unable to sync my IPad with my new Mac Air. Dialogue box says I need latest version of ITunes and to go to Apple and download. at that site it says that the IPad already has ITunes so there is nothing to download?
You need to update itunes on the computer not the ipad.

Can I sync my ipad with my wifes itunes and download her apps in addition to mine?
I would like to add applications from my itunes and my wifes itunes account to my ipad 2. Is that possible?
Contrary to the 2 above comments, iTunes content acquired from the iTunes Store can be shared with 5 other authorized computers. You may only sync an iOS device to one iTunes account, but you can share the content acquired by one iTunes Store account with other iOS devices.
The first thing that you and your wife need to do is to open iTunes and go to Preferences/Devices and check the box for Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Now you have control of your iOS device when it is connected to the other's account.
If you want the apps from your wife's iPad, connect the iPad to the computer and iTunes app to which you sync your iPad. Control click or right click her iPad's name in the iTunes devices list in the left column and choose Transfer Purchases. All purchased iTunes content on her iPad will by transfered to your iTunes account. After the transfer is complete, detatch her iPad and go to Authrize This Computer in the iTunes Store menu. Enter her Apple ID and password for her iTunes Store account and Authorize. Now all of her content is available to you and any iOS device which you sync to your iTunes account. You can do the same in reverse with your iPad for her.
The one thing to remember is that these are still her apps or your apps. So these apps can only be updated with the account that acquired them. If you open iTunes and see that there are apps with updates, to update your apps log into your iTunes Store account. To update her apps, log into her iTunes Store account. If you see apps to update but after logging into your iTunes Store account you are told there are no updates for you, then you know that the apps that have updates are hers. -
