Cannot sync ipad Air with new computer running windows 8

With new computer (HP Envy 27) running with windows 8, I have the latest iTunes installed, and successfully transferred my itunes library (books, music, TV programs, podcasts etc) to the new computer.  I've tried multiple times to sync my iPad Air with no success.  Only the Podcasts and Apps have been synched.  No TV programs, and only a few music albums and books came across, despite the fact I selected the albums and books to synch individually.  Can anyone help please?

Since you are able to sync some content and not all, I would first unsync (uncheck the box and hit apply) for a category (lets say books), then go back and re-sync (check the box again) and select just one item that did not sync before.  If it syncs then you know it's not the content.
If it doesn't sync, then you will have to do a little more testing to see what it is, like trying to sync from a new library or new user.
Also, verify in itunes what's on the iPad by showing the sidebar and clicking the arrow next to the iPad on that sidebar.  You can see what has made it onto the iPad.  If its on the iPad there, but not showing up in the proper place on the iPad's screen (like books in iBooks) then you will need to troubleshoot the device up to maybe even restoring it as new.

  • Cannot Sync iPhone 4 with New Computer

    I replaced my computer with a new one (Win 7 - although I believe the OS is irrelevant)
    I moved my iTunes library to the new computer using Home Share. But, when I connect my iPhone 4 to the new computer, I cannot move music, podcasts, etc. between the iTunes library and the iPhone (in either direction). When I click the option to manage music files manually, I get a message saying the iPhone can only sync to one computer and  I need to erase and sync the iPhone in order for it to sync to this computer.
    I followed instructions in other threads here, including:
    - authorize this computer
    - transfer purchases from the iPhone to iTunes
    - reset warnings on iPhone thru the device pane in iTunes
    - backed up the iPhone
    I allowed the erase and sync, then restored from the backup.
    All of my files and data (email, apps, and related data, etc.) are there  except none of my music, podcasts, movies, etc., are there. I'm still not able to move media files between the iPhone and iTunes
    How can I fix this?

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

  • After syncing iPad Air with iTunes the Info Page no longer shows up.  Doesn't matter if I sync via wi-fi or try another computer.  Without the Info Page how do I sync my calander/contacts/mail ??

    I think there's a big ol' discussion in the Mavericks forum about this - some folks have suggested setting up your own CalDAV server so you can continue syncing without having to route things through iCloud.
    It may be simpler to go back to Mountain Lion or Lion (assuming you were on either of those). My syncing computer is on Lion and can't go higher so I didn't realize until recently that USB syncing over contacts & calendars was no longer available!

  • I cannot sync my iphone with my computer

    I cannot sync my iphone with my computer. The laptop wont even recognise the iphone on itunes. I have had the phone for almost over2 years now. Its a 3GS iPhone. How do I fix this?? I have tried hooking up the iphone to various computers and they also do not catch the iphone on itunes on those computers. What should I do???

    If you are using a Windows based computer, try disabling a/v software and turning off the Firewall.
    Disable antivirus software
    Turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
    Then try syncing you iPhone.

    Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
    There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
    Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
    Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?

  • HT1296 my computer crashed and I had to reinstall itunes and now I cannot sync my ipod with my computer

    My computer crashed and I had to reinstall iTunes.  Now I cannot sync my iPod with my computer.  Any suggestions?

    Was this issue ever resolved?
    Ditto for me!  I am so upset because about 15 years, I've had the same old Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player which worked perfectly fine until the day Gigabeat (the software) upgraded to a Vista-compatibility program which made the MP3 go haywired!!  I couldn't get the MP3 player (again) to work as normal prior to the update.  Then, two years later, the business no longer supports MP3 players, nor does it invest in software patches!  Now I have a failed equipment ... though it still plays, but just won't let me work the controls to choose or select tracks!  I can only operate the on/off button on the Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player! AND, concidentally, the battery seems to shorten (lessen)!  Interesting...
    Then, I decided okay, I had enough...I can't play over 5.000 songs just to return to start; I decided to purchase the Apple iPod Classic 160 GB Silver!  I've had it only since March 2012.  It worked wonderfully at first.  It took me months to put all the music from my CDs to this magical device.  And, then, all of a sudden, my computer CRASHED (ironically in JUNE 2012!!) and lost all on the hard drive ... perhaps it is not ironic afterall.
    Here's a tall quesion to Apple manufacturer, are they preparing us to confiscate our equipment?  It sure seems that way to me! 
    No support from Toshiba (which, by the way, are currently investing in so-called "green energy in nuclear projects" in the state of Texas), nor is there any support by Apple ... Interesting!  Sorry for babbling.  But I'm tired of big money making corporations putting on the bluffer masks on the public!  Something just ain't right!  Hold tight to your vinyls, tape decks, cassettes, 8-tracks and CDs...  This may be just another whim to making big time money!

    I have just changed over from a computer that was 11 years old, running Windows 98, to a new computer running Windows XP. With my old computer I could easily download video clips, they would open and play as soon as the download had ended. Now I have to click on the download box and click on "Play". Also, when I wanted to keep a clip, I just right clicked and a menu appeared and I would then click on "Save as" or similar. Now there doesn't appear to be any way to save the clips. Apart from a faster and more powerful computer I feel I've gone backwards. Can anyone help?

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

    Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

  • Syncing iPhone Apps with New Computer- avoid erasing old apps?

    My old laptop was recently stolen, and I just replaced it. However, when syncing my iPhone to the new computer, all music was lost. No problem, I had a backup on my iPod/external drive, hurrah.
    However, I did not backup the .ipx files for the applications. Do I need to redownload all the apps, or is there a way to sync it to the new computer without nuking all the old apps (and the stored data/settings)? Thank you!

    The apps will be 'nuked' - at least, you can redownload them for free.
