Can't see ipad on different computer

Hi I setup my ipad 2 on a mac at work when I got it, now I cannot use this computer and I have a pc at home.  I want to setup my ipad at home on the pc so I can transfer movies onto my ipad.  Is it possible to do this? If so would it mean losing things like downloaded apps and doc in Izipp app? I have plugged in my ipad to my pc at home but its not showing the device in iTunes?
Thanks

  • Can't see IPAD on My Computer on PC

    I have just purchased an Ipad-2.  I am really a Microsoft PC type user not an Apple user! (Sorry).  I have connected my ipad-2 via USB (the lead supplied) to my PC.  It knows that the ipad-2 has been connected as it gives an audio signal.  The driver is loaded for if I go to the Device Manager and Universal Serial Bus Control at the top of the list is Apple Mobile USB Driver.  It is version 6.0.999.65 by Apple Inc.  So I should see the Ipad-2 on My Computer but I don't!
    I am really trying to transfer some of my Home Photographs to the ipad-2.  Would be happy to go via the iTunes store route but that doesn't seem very straight forward!  I put a folder for photographs in my user area and tried to see the folder on Add a Folder on iTunes but not sure what I am doing??  So would welcome some help.  Is there a User Guide for iPad-2 particularly with regard to transfering stuff to it like photo's videos that may not be iTunes purcahsed.  It would be so much easier if I could see the folders on the ipad-2 and drag the files from a folder on the PC.  I know one is Microsoft and the other is Apple but surely they can work together!

    pretty sure even if it show up as a camera in my computer you can only copy pictures from it not to it
    to do that I believe you need to sync with itunes
    it's not a windows thing the same thing holds true with macs

    You should be able to:
    Disable automatic syncing of devices (Edit > Preferences > Devices)
    Backup the device to the new installation (Right-click device > Back Up)
    Transfer your purchases into your authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in the apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

  • HT4528 CAN NOT SEE IPONE ON MY COMPUTER

    can not see my iphone on my computer

    Try plugging it into different USB ports. If you're plugging it into a keyboard or monitor, try plugging it directly into the box instead.
    Try uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.
    Since other computers see it and yours doesn't then it's likely a driver issue with your computer. You  need to try the multiple plugs, etc, to trigger that driver installation on your computer.

  • Can you sync to a different computer?

    My current computer is too old to sync my iPad 1 to, so I am using my daughter's macbook pro. I wanted to upgrade to IOS5, but it says that all data will be wiped from the ipad and to sync it first. I don't want to mix my photos, music and apps with what is currently on her laptop. When syncing is it isolated?

    No! One device , one iTunes library.
    1. Without connecting your iPad to your computer -
    A) Install iTunes / make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed.
    B) Go to the Store tab and click on "Authorise This Computer".
    C) Go to Edit, click on Preferences and click on Devices. Put a check mark in the box next to "Prevent  iPods/iPhones/iPads from syncing automatically". Click OK and close iTunes.
    2.  Connect your iPad to your computer -
    A) Start iTunes (if it does not do so automatically).
    B) Right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select "Transfer purchases".
    C) When the transfer has completed, right click on your iPad again and select "Backup".
    D) When the backup has completed, left click on your iPad, click on the Apps tab, and put a check mark in the box next to "Sync Apps", and then click on "Apply" (bottom right).
    E) Unless you want to always do a manual sync (as I do), go back to Edit, Preferences and uncheck the box next to "Prevent your iPod.....".
    F) Finally, on your iPad, check that everything is syncing properly. If not, go back to iTunes and check all settings.
    NB You should not lose any apps. However, any 'purchased' missing apps can be downloaded again FOC. As with updates, this must be done with the Apple ID under which they were originally 'purchased'.

  • Mac Book Pro can't see Window's 7 computer on network

    I have a MAC Book Pro on my network which I am able to see from my Windows 7 computer as well as access and send files, but I can't get my Mac to see my Windows 7 computer at all. 
    I have set up sharing in W-7 and have identified folders to share.
    What am I missing

    Hey harrysen01!
    Try using the steps in the following article to allow SMB connections, which should be able to help  you connect to your Windows computer for file sharing:

  • Can't see files on one computer

    This isn't a linksys issue, but likley one with my old computer.
    On my new one, connected to a WRT54GC I'm running XP Home, I can see the old computer, but can't access it. On the old one, also running XP home and connected with a wireless linksys USB adapter, I can see the new computer and can access the files I have set to share.
    I have run the wizard on the old one several (I mean SEVERAL) times. I still had to manually set up files for sharing, and I see the little hand under the folders I want to share, but I can't see them on the new computer. The old computer has the XP firewall turned off.
    I see everything I need from the new on the old computer, can print on the printer connected to the new computer, but can't see the old computer in 'my network places'. The EasyLink adviser sees the old computer.
    When I view workgroup computers on the new one, and click on the icon for the old computer, I get a message that I might not have permission, but as far as I can tell, permission is set on the old one.
    Is there something I'm missing to give the new computer permission to access the old one?

    I'm having this exact issue.
    I have WRT54GC as well.
    Two old desktop computers (win XP Home) are running on a wired connection, one (new) wireless laptop (win XP Media). All are connected to internet no problem, but none can see each other. I have run the network setup wizard several times on both desktops. It seems successful, but then I cannot view workgroup computers and I cannot print to network printers. "Improper permissions."
    What is going on here and how can i fix it?

  • I have an IPad 2. I "had" it synced to my Mac Os Laptop until my child bumped my glass of water on my laptop and destroyed my motherboard. Is there anyway that I can sync my IPad to another computer and not loose all of my apps and movies?

    Is there anyway that I can sync my iPad 2 to another computer without loosing all my data and apps?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer any other music by using a thrid-party porgram like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced items like apps and music.

  • After Upgrade to CS4 ... Can I Install CS3 on Different Computer

    Here is a licensing question ...
    I deactivated CS3 on an older Mac and did a clean install of a CS4 upgrade to a new Mac (I just used the CS3 serial number to validate the upgrade). So, now I'm wondering if the CS license would allow me to legally install the old CS3 on a different computer? I know I can legally install it on the same computer, but what about a different computer?

    The CS4 license replaces the CS3 license. Legally, they're tied together.

  • HT1498 I rented The Dark Night Resises and I can not see it on my computer Itunes already charged me for the rental ofthis movies. Please either credit my account or let me know how this matter can get resolved.

    I rented the Dark Night Raises yesterday December 22, 2012 It was charge on my Itune card, but I cant not see it on my computer please creidt me the cost of the rental or advise me on How we can resolve this matter.

    We are all itunes users just like you.  We can do nothing.
    What do you mean "I cant not see it on my computer"?
    You cannot fond the movie?  Where did you look?
    Did it download?  Have you tried Store>Check for Available downloads.
    The movie is there but it won't play?

  • How can someone else with a different computer retrieve all my past text messages?

    How can someone retrieve my text messages whitha different computer, as far back as 6 months ago. Someone is reading all my past text

    Yeah no kidding.
    I have a big paid up MobileMe account with tons of gallery stuff - this will all go away for me in July, and I'll miss it - it took no learning to use, and it was built into everything - just intuitive to post to a gallery password protect it, and send a link to a friend.  Click click done!
    It bothers me a lot when features I really enjoy and use are pulled in these half baked new apps and services.
    iMovie used to be quite good, but the new one is very restrictive - it's a step backwards in some ways.
    MobileMe was fine, but iCloud takes away the Gallery???? - another step backward.
    We use some iPhones at work for shooting some videos and technical engineering photo's, and while it's pretty cool that the iPhone photo's get put on the photostream of "Jason's iMac", I don't have instant access, and I would really like to be able to do that. If it could be done, then I can stay at home and work sometimes and I can get the photo's automagically.  
    Apple - please fix this.
