Different subset of songs to sync between an ipad and ipod

I have an ipod classic that is large enough to accommodate my entire itunes library. I don't want, however, to load the entire library of songs on to my new ipad. It won't fit in any event. Can I set up itunes, ipad, and ipod so that when I sync my ipod, all the songs are loaded but for the ipad, only those songs I want on the device are considered? In other words, I only want, nomially, 16-20 GBytes of songs on the ipad, chosen by me, and all 64 GBytes on my ipod.

Sync selected playlists. iTunes will recognize each device as unique. You can continue to sync everything to the Classic and then selected playlists to the iPad. The current version of iTunes also allows you to sync selected artists and albums. These options will be on the Music pane in iTunes when the iPad is connected.
Best of luck.

  • HT204053 I have set up i cloud but my calendars wont sync between MacBook, Ipad and iPhone. Is there a refresh style option or does anyone know what to do to make sure the calendar on my MacBook is the one that the other devices reads. Thanks everyone.

    I have set up i cloud but my calendars wont sync between MacBook, Ipad and iPhone. Is there a refresh style option or does anyone know what to do to make sure the calendar on my MacBook is the one that the other devices reads. Thanks everyone.

    Don't spend a lot of time trying to change it. It's an iCloud problem that's happened before, and when it happened in August it went back to the correct colors in a few days. Just be careful when you add new items to the calendar to use the right calendar (even if the color is wrong), otherwise you'll have things out of synch when the correct colors come back.

  • My note has stopped syncing between my ipad and iphone

    Note has stopped syncing between my ipad and my iphone. Can anybody help please?

    Settings>icloud.  Assuming you have already set up the connection to icloud (ID, password), then turn on Calendars on that screen.
    If they don't appear, then log into icloud.com using a computer's browser and look at the calendars page.  If empty, then you are not syncing calendars from your device to icloud.  If there, then be sure Calendars is turned on in Settings>iCloud or System Preferences>iCloud.

  • When trying to use icloud, my picture doesn't sync between my ipad and iphone.  Additionally, for photo sharing, my wife's icloud picture is mine. Why?

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1) and an iPad 2 (iOS 8.1).  My wife has an iPhone 5 (iOS 8.0.2).  I have been trying to set up our icloud accounts  so that it will be ready when we buy a mac in January. 
    When I set up my icloud, the little circular picture that I used on my iPhone 5s did not sync up with the one on my iPad.  They are both under the same ID, but it would not automatically sync up.  Additonally, I set up a icloud phot album between my wife and I for pictures of our little one.  On my phone, when I go to "people" that are synced to that album, it shows my wife and myself, but they both have my picture.  And when I do the same on my iPad, it shows a blank for me but my picture for my wife.  Confused.  Can someone help?
    Thanks!!
    Derek

    There are also many applications that will grab data from your phone and download it to your computer without using iTunes. That might be the easiest solution. I suggest you check out http://www.macroplant.com. I have not used their software but it tends to be well reviewed.

  • My iCalendar syncs between my iPad and my iPhone, but doesn't sync every entry with iCloud on my PC.  Any thoughts on how to fix this?

    I live by my iCalendar and when I pulled it up on my PC this evening, I've noticed that only certain entries are syncing with my iCalendar (on my PC).  For example, my work schedule is present on my PC, iPhone, and iPad, but my class schedule is only present on my iPad and iPhone.  I have my settings adjusted so that every event/entry is to sync, and I just plugged my iPhone into my computer to sync it as well but to no avail.  
    Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong? 
    Thank you!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
        1.    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
        2.    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
        3.    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Icloud not syncing between iPhone,ipad and mac

    Hi all
    Have numbers synced on my imac, ipad and iphone 4s.
    This morning i done a lot of work on my iphone and now im home to work o the mac its nnot synced. Nor has the Ipad?
    The imac has t2 documents that keep trying to load but when they get to completion they go back to start downloading.
    Everything ive done on my iphone toad needs syncing to both ipad anfd mac. To much work to lose
    Please help anyone
    Heres a screenshot of the mac trying to load

    Go to the Apple menu >> system preferences >> icloud.  Make sure you're logged in with the same apple ID as you are on the other two devices.  If you're already signed in, you can click on Account details to verify that.
    Then, make sure you have safari checked off in the icloud preferences.  If you already do, uncheck them for a minute or so.  Then recheck them.
    See if that helps.

  • Once Imessage has been set up and sync between your ipad and iPhone. Then sign out of the imessage account on your ipad, if you were to sign back in would any conformation email or text be sent to you again informing you that you are now signed back in?

    I have the new iPad and iPhone 4s. iMessage has already been set up syncing these two devices before, but I am now logged out on my iMessage on the iPad but still logged in on the iPhone.
    My question is, if I sign back into the iMessage on my iPad will Apple send any confirmation to my Email address or phone number stating that I am now receiving iMessages etc on both the iPad and iPhone and that these's two devices are now synced again?!?
    *please note that the two devices have been previously set up for iMessage and synced to both receive them, it's just a case of me signing back in on the iPad, but I would like to know if Apple send any confirmation that a certain device is now receiving the messages also, I'm assuming they must for security reasons but I guess if you've already set up the two devices they might not.
    Any help would be great, thank you

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

  • IBook is not syncing between my iPad and iPhone

    When I read a book on my iPad and lets say I stop and bookmark chatper 15, close the book and exit out of the app. Then go to my iPhone to keep reading from the same chapter it see that Chapter 14 is bookmarked. The same goes when I read and bookmark chapter 18 on my iPhone and when I go to my iPad chapter 19 is bookmarked. Is this a sync issue that only Apple can fix or can I do something in my devices to fix it?

    Settings>icloud.  Assuming you have already set up the connection to icloud (ID, password), then turn on Calendars on that screen.
    If they don't appear, then log into icloud.com using a computer's browser and look at the calendars page.  If empty, then you are not syncing calendars from your device to icloud.  If there, then be sure Calendars is turned on in Settings>iCloud or System Preferences>iCloud.

  • HT204053 My calender won't sync between my ipad and iphone.  My apple ID is different from my icloud ID.  I never had this issue before the last os upgrade.  How do I fix this?

    After my last OS software upgrade, the calendar and contact list will not sync with each other.  My ipad is correct but some contacts and calendar information disappeared from my iphone.  How do I fix this?

    I need to change my email adress too. i want it to be the same in icloud as my appleID is. When I set up icloud, it wouldn't allow me to use my appleid. Anyone?

  • Syncing between MacBook Air and iPod Touch

    just a few questions to confirm before I commit on the new Gen.5 iPod Touch:
    (1) will they sync wirelessly both ways?  (i.e., from MacBook to iPod and from iPod to MacBook)
    (2) can this wireless syncing be sheduled to work automatically at pre-set time intervals? .... and if so, what intervals are available?
    (3) will this syncing interfere with the automatic hourly backups from the MacBook to the Time Capsule?
    (4) can this syncing work "backwards"?  (i.e., if there's something that's already on both of them, and I want to REMOVE it from both of them, can I accomplish this by removing it from one of them and then it will get removed from the other as part of the next sync?) .... (or, would I need to remove it manually from each of them?)

  • My calendar won't sync between my ipad and iPhone?

    Using two iPhone 4's and a 2nd gen ipad. The calendars will not sync. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi vichochile,
    If you are having an issue with syncing your new iPhone with the information that is in iCloiud (and on your other devices) we should make sure that iCloud is set up correctly on the iPhone. See this page for directions -

  • Can the reminders app sync between an ipad and iphone 5

    When looking in settings, then in Icloud.  it shows that it will sync.
    however it does not seem to sync with my iphone 5.
    Any help would be great.

    Check to see if all your contacts are correct on iCloud.com from a web browser on your MacBook.
    Is so then on your MacBook:
    System Preferences > iCloud > uncheck Contacts, wait for it to finish then check it again.
    This should force a re-push from iCloud.com
