How can I get my apps and pics off my iPad 2 to my iPad 3?

I need to get all my apps and such off my iPad 2 and am not sure how to do that.

You can copy all iTunes purchases from your iPad 2 to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.  You can then force a backup of the iPad (assuming that you want to restore it onto your iPad 3) by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'Backup', and you can copy off photos/videos that you've taken with the iPad to your computer : photos to computer. Photos and videos that you've taken with the iPad that are in the Camera Roll album will be included in the backup (and therefore copied via a restore), but you may want to take your own backup of them.

  • Hello, i have a Problem. My iTunes wasn't work, so all my Apps and music is away. How can I get the apps and so on back?

    i destroy my iTunes and all my data's are away. how can i get back?

    Hello. . .
    All of the iTunes content are in a folder. . .
    For Windows: [Windows HDD]\Users\[Your Username]\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    For Mac OS X: Music\iTunes\iTunes Media
    If they are not there, then there is absolutely no way to recover them.

  • How can I get my bookmarks and mailboxes off my old iBook G4 that crashed?

    My OS crashed. I reinstalled it, but still could not access anything. I took the computer to a repair person. He created a new account and retrieved everything I had on my desktop, but not my mailboxes or bookmarks. He said there is a way to do that, but it would be very expensive for me to have him do it. He said I could come here and find out. So here I am.
    I can get online and to the desktop of this new account, but that's all. How can I get that stuff? I need it very badly.......
    It was an iBook G4 14" with 10.4.11.
    Thanks!

    Here is what macjack has offered:

  • How do I get my apps and pics from iPhone to iPad?

    How do I sync my photos and music from my I phone to my iPad? I have sync'd on iTunes but can't figure out how to get iTunes to recognize what I have purchased already.

    Here is a possible solution: When you sync your iPad, highlight your iPad in the left column of itunes and you should see a set of tabs for your iPad. Check the tabs for apps, music, and photos and make sure the items you want on the iPad are set to sync. When you have them set, click the "apply" button in the lower right corner of itunes.

  • How can u get someone iCloud and pics to your apple id

    My husband gave me his old iPhone 4 and I got my App Store to have my same sign in as my iPad and Mac book but my iPhone still has his ID on iCloud and every pic he takes comes to my phone and no one can send me pic on my text
    We did not take it back to the beginning or do a clean start. So. Help!!!!!

    Mhh that is very difficult to say, sure it is a lot easier if yo only have one Apple ID for all iCloud Services (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, ...) + App and other Store purchases like music, tv shows etc., but if you already bought a lot of stuff or even everything with one ID, I personally would keep that ID for iTunes and other Store purchases and would use an other ID for iClouds services like Mail, Calendars, Photo Stream etc.
    By the way, it is not possible to create a new mac.com email address. At the moment you only have the ability to create a me.com address. (For a new account go to "Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Add Account, iCloud" choose the option "get a free me.com email address" during the set up process.)

    I upgraded to IOS 6.1 and my phone merged with both my daughters.  After signinig all three phones out of my Apple ID, things went back to normal, except one of my daughters phones now has all my contacts.  How do I get her just hers back?

    All of my photos were gone, i took and saved them with my ipod.
    The photo app is saying restoring.
    What should i do?

  • How can I get IFO, BUP and VOB files to play on my iPad

    I have a DVD of my vacation that a friend made using iMovie. But I can't get it to load on my iPad to play. Any idea how to do this cheaply?

    You don't.
    Those are DVD format files and are not playable on any ios devices. 
    You will have to use handbrake to convert the video on the dvd to a compatible format. 

  • I found an old iPod classic of mine.  It's not synced to my new MacBook Pro.  How can I get the music and photos off of it and on to my new computer?  When I plug it in to my new computer it wants to erase what is on it and transfer from my new computer.

    I found an old iPod classic of mine that is synced to a computer that is long gone.  I want to get the music and photos from this old iPod onto my new computer.  Every time I hook the iPod up to my new computer it wants to delete what is on the iPod and replace with the contents of the iTunes that is currently on the new computer.  I don't want to do that.  I want to keep what is on the old iPod and transfer it to iTunes.  Any help?  Thanks!

  • How can i get my apps and music back after upgrading to ios5? i back up my iphone and sync it. only contacts and settings are the same now..

    above

    Music is never sync'd back across, its always done manually. Apps should automatically sync back across after you restore from backup.

  • I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on, all my apps were deleted. I tried to reinstall my apps, but it wouldn't let me. My storage still remained the same even though, all my apps were deleted. How can I get my apps back?

    Hold the home and power button down until your phone restarts. If that doesn't work, backup and restore using iTunes.

    (1) So, I found a youtube video showing how to open up my iMac and replace a Disk drive. I opened it. I removed the disk drive. I opened the metal cover of the lid of the disk drive. It was clean and immaculate; so, it destroyed and debunked the dirty drive theory. But, just to make sure I sucked around the optical sensor with a vacuum and gently brushed it with a Q-tip.
    (2) I then watched a you tube video showing how the drive operated (it was a drive supplied with power outside an iMac with a transparent cover unlike the opaque metal cover that we have on our drives). My scientific curiosity started to wonder if somehow the mechanical part (of the electro-mechanical assembly) was locked or jammed. So, I started messing with the arms with the utmost care after watching the video to see if i could move them manually. Yes on some. The main arm that is linked with the drive motor was immovable. The rest I played with a little bit, took great notice in the start of the video to see how the arms looked before inserting a disk. I then put it all back together.
    It works now. My guess is that taking it out and then placing it back in along with the resetting options that others have done was the trick. I believe it is a possibility that the hard drive became locked mechanically in some strange manner after ejecting a DVD in conjunction with the uploading of the new OS. I believe the actual removal, reinstallation, and resetting of the drive put everything back into sync. My computer sits in a climate controlled dust free environment. I knew for a fact that this hard drive was OKAY.

  • My "Hanging with Friends" app keeps crashing whenever I try to open it. I have deleted and re-downloaded the app, restarted my iPhone, and even restored my iPhone all together, and nothing is working. How can I get this app to work again?

    Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

    See a a version compable with your iPod is available:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
    Also, if you have iOS 6.1.6 yo have a 4G (has cameras). A 3G does not have cameras and can only go to 5.1.1
