How can I get notes from my ipad to my mac?
I am being driven crazy trying to do something that should be simple - moving some notes from my ipad to my macbook pro.
I have tried Googlemail and it wont let me add any attachments on the ipad. I've tried downloading software but can't find anything that works with the operating sytems I am using. I want to throw this stupid ipad in the bin! Can anyone help?
Do you want to sync notes from the iOS Notes app to your Mac? If so, it's very easy, but not necessarily intuitive, as Notes notes on iOS sync over to Mail notes on Mac OS X. Duh, right? This will change, finally, with Mountain Lion, when Mac OS X will finally get a dedicated Notes application which will sync with iOS's Notes app. For some reason, it will still use an email account to do it, though, instead of iCloud.
For this to happen automatically, you need to enable Note syncing within Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars. You'll need to have an email account that supports this. iCloud, AOL, Yahoo, and others will do so.
Other options are to use Dropbox. Dropbox is a third-party service and app collection which works on nearly any device and is free for up to 2gb of storage. Install the Dropbox application on your Mac and the Dropbox app on your iPad. You can then use TextEdit or any number of other applications to create and edit plain text messages on your Mac; you just need to remember to store them within your Dropbox folder. You'll need a good text editor for your iPad; fortunately, there are plenty – I'm partial to Nebulous Notes.

How can I get notes from my Ipad cloud to sync to my iphone?
How can I sync previous "Notes" from my Ipad cloud to my Iphone?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing. -
How can i transfer music from my iPad to my mac
So my ipad is full and I'm trying to make some space to download some movies. I'd like to download the music I have from my Ipad to my mac since most of my music is on my ipad vs my mac. Most of my music wad not purchased on itunes so i can not sync the ipad and download it. Any good suggestions on a software transfer for me to try?
ThanksThe best method to accomplish what you want to do is to transfer the music from the original computer to the new Mac, or re-download purchases from the iTunes Store. These Apple KB articles will help you:

How can I get music from my ipad to my computer?
I recently lost my hard drive when I sent my computer to be repaired. I hadn't had the money to afford the itunes match/icloud backup then, but I got it after I got my computer back. Since you can't purchase from the ipad, I had to go through the computer, but that only backed up my purchases. Now I have music from CDs that I don't have anymore on my iPad, but how do I get that back onto my computer?!
You can find a discussion of third party software programs that can do this in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2013615?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

How can I copy notes from one iPad account to another.
I have a number of Notes on my iPad which I would like to transfer to my new Mac. However, when I turned on iCloud, it created an iCloud account in Notes with nothing in it. Is there a way I can get all 37 notes in the old account (All Notes) to the new account (iCloud), so they can be synced to the computer?
I know it's tedious, but I'd honestly just e-mail them to yourself, or cut and paste them into a document that you get onto your mac.
Sometimes iCloud has a bad habit of eating or losing data so I'd back it up somewhere or somehow before you try the sync. -

How can I sync Notes from my iPad to my iPhone?
Hi,
I am trying to sync the Notes between my iPad2 and my iPhone4 "over-the/air".
I don't have MobileMe (well, I have only Find My iPhone).
Strange thing is that they were syncing until a few days ago, but now it doesn't work anymore. Maybe I changed some setting by accident.
Thank you for any help!Welcome to the Apple Community.

How can I get content from my iPad and my air book to show up on the tv screen using Apple TV, without going thru iTunes?
You will need to use AirPlay to see that.
Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices. -
Hi People!
Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.Hi Alan,
Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now... -
HOw can I export photos from my iPad or iPod to my main computer? My old computer died with my photos on it but I want to move my photo library from my iPad or iPod to the computer I just bought. Thanks for any help you can give.
Sorry but your iPhoto library is not on an iPad or iPod - you may have photos there (most likely low resolution copies) but not an iPhoto library - dying computers (along with software and human errors) are why you always must have a backup - now is the time to load it

How can I remove apps from my iPad
How can I remove apps from my iPad? It does not have the little "x" option on the iPad like the iPhones.
It works just the same as an iPhone. A long hold on an icon will cause them all to start wobbling, drag to move around or tap the X to remove.You can't remove any of the built-in apps so these won't get an X to tap.
