    IMO - and we are all entitled to our own opinions - I prefer to use iTunes. Heaven forbid if Apples servers ever go down - there will be mass hysteria and I have seen too many cases of "I just tried to restore from my iCloud backup and it have 8 gazillion app icons on the screen that say "waiting" - but once again - this is only my opinion.
    And if you lose your Internet connection in the middle of an iCloud restore - what then? Nobody thinks of that kind of stuff - but hey - that's what makes this whole exchange of ideas so wonderful. We can all express our own opinions  .... but that does not help you solve your situation.
    What exactly is happening when you try to sync with iTunes? Maybe somebody can offer help instead of just useless opinions that do nothing to resolve your situation.

  • I just decommissioned my windows pc for a mac power book.  How can I get my ipad to sync with the new computer without erasing all the apps and data on the ipad?

    I just decomissioned my windows pc in favor of a new (to me) MacBook Pro.  When I attempt to sync my iPad I get a warning that I will erase all content on the ipad in order to sync with the new computer.  How do avoid erasing all the data on the iPad, and get the iPad and the new Mac/iTunes to be friends?

    Best option is to use Windows Migration Assistant as Ralph noted.
    Here's a better (updated) link to Windows Migration Assistant for Lion -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
    Or if you only want iTunes (Migration Assistant let's you choose) copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on the Mac.
    FYI: A MacBook is not a PowerBook. PowerBooks were discontinued in 2005.

  • How do I get my iPad to interface with a LAN?

    Am trying to interface my wife's new iPad 2 to a Linksys E-Series router. The iPad shows and icon with 2 or 3 bars in the upper left corner of the screen, indicating it is connected to the the server, and I can see the Wi-Fi network name on the Settings menu, but I cannot access the Internet. I'm a PC person and thought this would be easy with an Apple product! I've downloaded the latest firmware version to my router and the iPad is running OS v. 5.1.1.

  • How can i get my printer to connect with my computer to print?

    I have a HP photosmart prem-web C309n-s printer. I have two different computers. One is a 4 year old HP laptop, and I just recently purchased an HP touchsmart 320 PC. I installed the printer when I first got this computer, and the printing worked fine from any computer that was in the house. Now, it seems that my printer is not connected with my computer. With my dad's laptop in the house, he had before installed the printer, and when I look up the network on my printer, the only computer that it shows connection with is his. I need to print things for class, and I'm not sure how to make my desktop "visible" to my printer. Please help!!!!

    In the Print dialog box choose "Scale To Fit"

    not sure if this is a permanent fix but, ever since upgrading to itunes 11.3.1, my iphone5 seems to finish syncing on its own, now. didn't seem to be a problem anymore. at least after doing only one sync, since the upgrade.
    (stiil have a blank "purchased" page at itunes store, though).

  • HT1386 How do I get my iPhone to sync with my computer?

    I have the latest version of iTunes. The device is listed in my iTunes. Just switched phones - how do I check phone ID number to know if the iPhone listed is the one I have now?

    Let me try again. While trying to sync my new iPhone with iTunes to my computer, I got this message:
    "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected."
    So I wondered if my computer was trying to back up my old iPhone. I checked the Serial number (the phone id number if referred to earlier) and yes it was. So I added the new phone...and got the same error message. Rats.
    any ideas?

  • HT1349 how do i get my iphone to sync with my computer

    Since you provide almost no information at all about your issue, it is nearly impossible to offer any good advice.

  • HT1386 I have been syncing my IPad to only one PC computer successfully for over a year.  Now when I try to sync I get the message that the ipad is synced with another computer and can be synced with only one.  How can I correct this?

    Although I have synced my ipad to only one PC computer I now get the message that it is synced to another computer and only one computer sync is permitted.  I have lots of apps on the ipad and do not want to loose everything by starting fresh with the ipad.  How can I get the ipad to again accept my computer and sync successfully?

  • HT201248 My email address associated with my Apple ID on my iPad has been turned off from the ISp (U.S. army).   I have a new gmail account with a new Apple ID. How do I get my iPad to use my gmail account?

    Help. My old @us.army.mil email address was terminated by the army. I used that address to register my first apple id account on my iPad. I can't remember my original Apple ID number and if I ask to reset my password, Apple sends the reset link to my old non-working email address. I have a new gmail address and a new Apple ID number associated with that address. How do I get my iPad to use my new gmail address and new apple ID number?  Remember, I can't log out of my old account because I can't remember the password. Amd Apple will only reset the password by sending a link to my old, non functioning army email account. ( I hate army webmail for canceling all retired military email accounts). John Marc
