Connect ipad to iMac
How to Connect iPad to iMac ? Only via iTunes and cable?
Are you looking in the right place to find the shared files on your iMac?
First thing you need to do is on your iPad. Share the files you want to transfer by selecting Share > iTunes.
Start iTunes on your iMac. Is it iTunes 11? If so use the View menu in iTunes to select View Sidebar.
Then connect your iPad to your iMac.
Select your iPad in the left sidebar.
Select Apps in the row of tabs in the right window of iTunes.
Scroll down under Apps to the File Sharing section. It is below the complete list of apps.
You should see a list of the shared files or a folder that contains the files. Use the Copy To... Button ( if there is one ) to copy the shared files to your iMac.

Calendar does not sync from IPad to IMac
I manually connect Ipad to IMac to sync, but it no longer picks up the new items on my IPad and transfers them to my desktop. Suggestions please?!
That facility is no longer available. Use iCloud to sync calendars between iDevices and Mac, etc.

I want to sync my ipad with my new imac in order to copy all my carefuly comleted contacts from imac to ipad. When I connect ipad to imac the info button in itunes on the imac does not exist so I cannot sync. My ipad is synced with my old pc without difficulty.
Hello, shells hip.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I see you have a new iMac and assume that it is running Mavericks. With Mavericks the only way to sync information via the Info tab would be to use iCloud. Here is some information that will walk you through the process of using iCloud.
If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

i have a mac book pro, an ipad and an iphone. i have an icloud account that allows my iPad and imac to sync. but my mac book only has a connection to 'mobile me'. how can i include my macbook with my other devices? help! thanks
You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud. The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

My wireless keyboard no longer connects with my iMac since changing the batteries. It now shows as not connected, not paired and not configured. A friend recently connected his iPad to the iMac and since then the problem started. Any ideas to resolve this?
a friend told me that he wants my os x cd for my macbook pro to upgrade his imac.
The discs that come with your Mac are "machine specfic" and cannot be used on another Mac. -
I am connected to my iMac to recharge iPad but it is saying "Not charging" ! Why and what have I done wrong?
If you already updated to 8.0 you're doing nothing wrong. It's one of the lovely issues created by the update. I just tested mine, same problem.

A printer that I have connected to my iMac via usb in not showing up in printer options on my iPhone or iPad and it use to before I upgraded to 8.1. How can I fix this?
Is it an Airprint-compatible printer, and is its WiFi enabled if it is? (see: About AirPrint)
If it isn't an Airprint supported printer, then you need a 3rd party driver on your iMac to print from an iPhone. Such as Printopia. As it worked in the past you probably have such a printer driver installed; check and see if it's running.
Beyond that try restarting the printer, restarting the phone, restarting your router, and restarting your computer. -
What does it mean when my ipad is in Recovery mode? It's connected to my imac for software update and it says I must "restore" the ipad before itunes can be used. Will I lose everything on my ipad?
Unless you have a backup from which you can restore, yes you will lose all of your data and settings.
You should be able to sync your content back to the iPad if you have been syncing with iTunes all along. If you don't sync with iTunes, you can download much of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. This explains downloading past purchases.

Unfortunately, at this point, you must restore the device before you can move on. There is nothing you can do to avoid it now. -

My iPad Air, 32 gb will not start up. It had 97% battery charge,last time I used it. I tried connecting to my iMac but iTunes said I needed to add my password to my iPad Air, which I can't do since the iPad. Air won't start up. The iPad air is one week old. Bummer, eh?

I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home. I have a cable modem. Help please!
If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password. -

I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou
iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID. So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account. Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.
