Everything is updated!!  iPhone, iPad, iTunes and MacBook Pro...  All I am trying to do is drag content from my iTunes Library to the devices.  iTunes gets stuck EVERY single time!  What usually triggers the Non-Sense is when I am adding a 2nd file!
Why does iTunes SUCK??
1) Many items greyed out in the menu bar, for well over 2 years, maybe more!
2) I Can't drag more than one piece of content from your iTunes library to any device (iPhone, iPad)
If you do it gets stuck for HOURS and HOURS in "Preparing To Update" and the little activity circle never completes, ever!!
I used to be able to drag over 1000 tunes, movies, etc. go have breakfast come back and it would all be on my device!!
Can't do it anymore, one song at a time, maybe an album at a time, or one movie, and that is it!!
If you do a 2nd item the other items stop loading and never continue!!
This is so BAD, I don't understand how they don't have this fixed yet!!
Please tell me I am not the only one!!
...and If I am tell me how to fix it!
Very appreciated,
Joe

  • If my iphone, ipad, MAC and macbook pro are all linked, and then I upgrade only my phone to iOS 7.0, does that have an effect on my calendar, etc.  It doesn't seem to be showing the same data it was before the update.  Lost lot of info from calendar.

    If my iphone, ipad, MAC and macbook pro are all linked, and then I upgrade only my ipone to IOS 7.0, does that have an effect on the linking to my other MAC products.  It seems my calendar has lost a lot of information since the upgrade.

    If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there. 
    searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
    The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
    As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
    Regards.

  • I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together.  I receive all my emails on the macbook and iphone just fine, but don't receive all emails on my ipad.  Some go to Trash because it says they're improperly formatted.  What gives?

    I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together, which generally works fine.  I receive all emails from senders in my address book in my Macbook Pro and iPhone, but some end up in Trash on my iPad, with the message, "This message cannot be displayed because of the way it is formatted.  Ask the sender to send it again using a different format or email program.  text/plain"  They appear to be mainly from competing platforms, android, etc.  Is there a workaround for this problem?
    Thanks-

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • My ipad 2 and macbook pro don't sync

    I can't get my Ipad 2 and Macbook Pro to sync.  I have the latest version of ITunes and am running Mountain Lion on the Mac.  I have rebooted both.

    over wifi, i have tried using the cable but it does't sync that way either.  it shows that it is syncing but nothing changes and it syncs faster than it normally would. I am adding and deleting some movies from it and there is no change.

  • Handoff won't work between iPad Air and Macbook Pro

    I'm trying to get handoff to work between my iPad Air and Macbook Pro (Late 2013). I have tried turning all devices on and off again, turning the handoff on and off again and turning iPhone Cellular Calls on and off again on both devices.
    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

    This fixed your connectivity problem. However, I don't think this has actually fixed any problem.
    I think this Handoff feature is buggy. I have three devices -- a MBP, an iPad Mini, and an iPhone 5 -- and I have done "the dance" you've described and only one of my devices, the iPhone, is now Handoff capable. The iPad Mini still doesn't support Handoff.
    I think there is a problem in the software and that all of this signing in, signing out, powering on, powering off, is just getting the devices to clean themselves up so that stuff can start from a fresh slate and attempt to work together again...sort of. It's not necessarily guaranteed.

  • What is the difference between iPad 3 and macbook pro

    I was going to buy an ipad 3 o macbook pro but Im not sure if I should send extra and get a macbook pro or get and ipad 3 which does just about everything I want to do

    Unfortunately, most of the apps you listed are more like toys on iOS compared to the dekstop counterparts.
    But they may be perfectly adequate for the original posters intended use (as they are for the thousands of people who use them daily). And iPhoto on iOS has a few features the desktop version doesn't yet.
    One cannot really consider the iPad as a serious (doing more than just creating some quick holiday videos / edit photos) programming / video or image editor tool.
    Professional musicians have created whole albums on the iPad. http://www.t3.com/features/gorillaz-ipad-album-how-it-was-made
    Music videos have been created on the iPad: http://www.tuaw.com/2011/03/17/music-video-shot-with-only-an-ipad-2/
    How seriously it can be used depends on what you are using it for, and your intended end result. Obviously it's not going to create the same type of work that can be created using $5000 worth of desktop computer and pro software, but then it cost 1/10th of that.
    As we don't know panuccio11's intended usage (serious, fun, pro, amateur) we can't really say if it will suit his needs. But it's not correct to say it can't be used to create content, as the above examples and available apps prove.

  • Back up iPhone to iCloud and Macbook Pro?

    I recently had to restore my iPhone, and it was from my MacBook Pro cause I don't know how to restore it from iCloud. Is there a way to back it up on both devices?

    Well I haven't updated my signature. I think all of my contacts got swiped from iCloud when I was trying to sync them all to my iPhone, Macbook Pro, and iPad 2. So I'm hoping if I restore, they will come back. How do I restore from iCloud?

  • Syncing Issues between Ipad 2 and MacBook Pro

    When we sync our ipad with our macbook pro we get over 100 errors for songs that won't sync to the ipad.  These are all songs we have purchased on itunes or downloaded from cd's.  Anyone encounter this before and have a suggestion on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    The underlying issue here is that you have chosen to use POP3 rather than IMAP mail accounts. Only IMAP mailboxes are 'synchronized' by default: it is virtually impossible to synchronize POP3 mailbox content.
    For a discussion of POP3, IMAP and mail synchronization options, take a look at the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum located here.

    WD My Passport 1TB USB external drive randomly ejects from my iMac and MacBook Pro.
    The drive is approximately 4 years old.  When the drive is plugged in, I can see the data.  It appears to be working properly.  The only problem is that everyone of my Apple Machines are ejecting it.   Several years ago, this drive connected to Mac machines with no problems.   I have tried two separate USB cords.  I have updated the firmware.  I have tried it on my MacBook, two different Macbook Pro's, and my iMac.  
    All give the same result of random ejection of the drive and the error message of:
    Disk Not Ejected Properly
    Eject "1TB Passport HD" before disconnecting or turning......
    Searching through the web, it seems this is an common/known problem.   Does anyone know the solution?
    Thanks,

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • How do I transfer music from my iPhone/iPad to my Macbook Pro's iTunes (11.0.1)?

    I have recently purchased a Macbook pro and I was wanting to transfer the music from my iPhone/iPad onto my iTunes (11.0.1) But have no Idea how to. Can you please explain how I can do so?
    Thanks,
    Samantha

    Idealy the way to go is to transfer your music from your old computer to the new one and then sync with it.
    However if you do not still have the computer then these are your options

  • Songs skipping like scratched cd on iTunes and MacBook pro

    Posted this on iTunes and no response. I would really appreciate a reply from Apple as I not only paid loads for my MacBook, but crowed like mad how much better the Mac would be than a PC for doing music live. I am seriously disappointed and a bit embarrassed.
    Hi, I use my MacBook pro to play backing tracks for my live show. I am working in Greece in the outdoors at night. Since the beginning of the summer iTunes has been skipping like mad during gigs Not Good. I don't remember when I upgraded my iTunes but don't recall having the problem last year when I started using the MacBook. I have searched the net and have found many a kindred soul suffering skipping songs.
    What gives?
    What I have tried:
    1- I have disabled the sudden movenmt sensor thinking it might be a Bass Response issue. However, still does it.
    2- bought a DJ rack to elevate the computer thinking it might be a heat issue. Nope.
    3- got rid of all start up items, closed airport, netshred, etc.
    4- changed the setting on Perian from Dolby stereo to stereo, and then I uninstalled it. Nope
    5- I use the apogee duet live and I get skips. Tried it without the duet and it's worse.
    What I am running-
    MacBook Pro
    Lion X 10.7.4
    Processor- 2.66 Ghz Intel Core i7
    Memory- 8GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    1TB SATA HD
    I hope someone can help. I spent a lot of money for my MacBook and don't want to go back to the PC.
    Thanks
    [email protected]
    P.S. I have upgraded, as well, to the latest iTunes.

    Hi, Clinton,
    Now I think that I have officially tried everything short of taking out the HD and replacing it..
    I have used the removable drive and still got the problem.. However, I noticed that the skipping only happens on my Backing Tracks and the same ones, which then told me that the tracks became corrupted. So I re-encoded 2 of the tracks using Garageband and Others I just replaced with new versions..
    It worked great for 2 gigs and I was chuffed to bits.. However, I needed the third gig to make it a go and then BLAMMO one of the re-encoded songs skips... My 4th gig I get a new addition to the skipping...
    Something is wrong and it is doing my head in.. Do you have any other suggestions aside from going back to my Cheapie Windows Notebook that never skipped?
