If you synced, i tunes may be thinking you are still there. Open up i tunes, and sign out, then have her sign in with her apple account.
Syncing two different accounts on the same computer can be tricky.
Naah. Each one should snap right in and it doesn't matter what account is identified. At least that's the way that they work with a Mac. I do not understand Windoze machines.

Itunes does not see my ipad

Hi,
I had to reinstall mac os x with the installation cd and first my mini ipad said that this version of itunes was not the one with whom it was synchronized and now itunes does not see the ipad at all! And yet, iphoto sees it.
I have already tried to restart the macbook and the ipad but in vain.
If somebody has another answer, I would be grateful.
thanks!

Windows 7 or itunes does not recognize my ipad, windows 7 or itunes does not recognize my ipad

Help! After resetting my ipad, Windows 7 or Itunes does not recognize it. I have read and followed all assistance or how to's that I came across on line but nothing works.

Check in this order-
1. Make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
2. Try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
3. Make sure your lead /connections are not faulty.
4. If you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
5. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed.
6. If using Widows, make sure all Windows Updates are installed.
7. Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
8. And failing all that put the device into Recovery mode. See here and note the paragraph 'If you restore from a different computer.... ' down near the bottom of the page -

Had to rebuild computer & now itunes does not recognise ipod & iphones

Had major problems with pc & had to reload everything & have successfully reloaded backed up music & films but now when I connect ipod & iphone it thinks that they are linked to another version of itunes & get the message saying that it will delete all media etc on the devices. I have lots of apps & other music (downloaded direct onto ipod) contact/diary info that I don't want to lose. Any ideas anyone?
Many thanks.

Ipod touch and iphone will sync to one computer/library at a time. Since you had to reload everything, it is now a new library. Your iphone and ipod will indeed be erased when you sync.
You can transfer itunes purchases from the devices first.
Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Were you contacts not included in the regular backup?
If for some reason you did not backup your contacts, calendars, then you can enter one unique contacts/calendar entry on your computer. When you first sync you should get the option to merge the data.

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes. iTunes does not "see" the devise. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista). iTunes does not "see" the device. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does. Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.

OK. You merely erased the content and settings. The IOS is still there.
If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures. From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

Connect your iPhone to your computer. Select it under Devices in the source list left side of the iTunes window.
Select the Summary tab from the menu.
Select: Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected.

iCloud Backup is for your iPad, not for your computer.
Whatever you bought from iTunes is yours forever and can be downloaded as many times as you want. This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store.
Here is the procedure for your reference.
On a computer, launch iTunes. Click on iTunes Store on the left
On the right you will see this
"Sign in" using the Apple ID used to purchase your songs, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.
Whatever you have that did not originate from iTunes will have to be obtained from whatever means you used to obtain it in the past.

I have just upgrade Itunes (10.6.3.25) and now I can not see my Ipad anymore. before the upgrade it was working fine. I already tried all suggestions from the support page, except re-installing Itunes. any suggestions?

Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
However .... I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.
