How do I setup new iPad to get old iPad apps

New iPad air.  Want to get apps and setup from old iPad to new, then clean up apps I no longer need.  How do I get apps to new iPad via iCloud.  Note:  I may not have set this up properly when I set up the new iPad, so I may need help getting that resolved first.

I found documentation referring to the setup iPad screen, but cannot find it anywhere.
The setup screen appear when you first turn on a new iPad.  If you iPad is already set up, you can return to the setup assistant screens and set it up again by going to Settings>General>Reset and tapping Erase All Content and Settings.  When you go through the setup screens you will be given the option to Restore to iCloud Backup.  If you have an iCloud backup of your old iPad, choose this option and follow the prompts, choosing the backup of your old iPad to restore to.  Be sure your iPad is connected to your charger and wifi while it is restoring the backup.
This article explaines what is contained in the iCloud backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519.

    Restore your new iPad from your most recent backup of your iPad2 in iTunes when you set it up, and then set up your wife's iPad2 as new device in iTunes by clicking on 'restore' on the main summary screen.
    Alternatively, you can just go to 'Settings>Reset>Erase all Contents and Settings'.

  • HT1296 I bought my wife a new Ipad 3. How do I transfer her data from the old Ipad 1 to the new one?

    I bought my wife a new Ipad 3. How do I transfer her data from the old Ipad 1 to the new one?

    Sync the old one, and get a full back up stored.  Make sure you transfer your purchases to I tunes, and make sure you upload any photos taken on the pad, or imported thru the cck.
    Then plug the new pad in, and set it up from the backup of the old one.  In theory, all the stuff that was in the back up will migrate to the new pad.  If apps, music or books get lost, you can redownload them for free, using the same appLe id.  
    If you are selling or gifting the old one,   When you are done and happy with the new set up,  go to setting, general, reset, reset all content and data.  This will place the pad in factory new condition.   Lastly, if it is a 3 g pad, especially if it a Verizon pad, make sure to cancel the plan

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

  • How do you create new maps in Mail on iPad?

    How do you create new maps in Mail on iPad?
    In the iPad-manual they mention you can put messages in other mailboxes or maps (to free up the Inbox).
    But they don't mention how to create such maps.
    In the app itself I can't find a way to do it.
    thanks for all replies
    Kamiel

    Maybe you are confused by the fact I used the word 'maps' instead of 'folders' (my natural Ianguage is Dutch).
    For your question about the manual: on page 59 in the 'iPad 2 user guide' under 'organizing Email' they say you can move messages to a different mailbox or folder.

    It's not clear from your post what you are asking. In a SQL database, you use the INSERT statement to insert a row into a table. You use the SELECT statement to retrieve rows. Here's some basic info on how to do that within PHP

  • How to create a new template for pages in iPad?

    How to create a new template for pages in iPad?

    In spite of the latest updates Pages for iPad does not support:
    1) User templates
    2) Headers
    3) Footers
    4) Page numbers
    and it is not compatible with Pages for OSX, a document cannot be edited alternatively on Mac and iPad without destroying headers and footers.
    - The Word export is far from perfect
    - Does not really support Page Layout mode (you cannot duplicate a page at least)
    - Does not have a multi-page overview
    - The spelling support of iOS and OSX is at the level of Apple Maps except 4-5 languages.
    - It takes a long time until it starts
    INSTEAD, according to the latest updates:
    - It can do change tracking
    - Lock and unlock objects
    - Add reflections to shapes
    Dear Apple, please understand:
    - We like iPad and we wish to use it for real work.
    - We wish to have user templates, headers, footers and page numbers.
    - We do not expect all the features of Pages for OSX, but we do expect real compatibility.
    - We do not wish to switch back to Word for Windows unless you force us.
    Please try to concentrate on real development not on unimportant changes like in the latest dissapointing update.

  • How do I switch my photos from my old IPad to my new IPad?  Tried iTunes but wouldn't accept my new IPad.

    How do I switch my photos from my old IPad to my new IPad?  I tried to use ITunes but it would not accept the new IPad.

    If your device is Not recognized, try these suggestions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1852
    Copy all content to your computer, including the photos taken with your old device, explained in this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
    You'll have to use iTunes to copy the photos you imported to your computer to your new iPad again.
    If the photos are not part of the camera roll, you'll have to use 3rd party software to copy them to your computer.

    How do I create new folders in mail on IPad and IPhone for saving emails?

    You can't do it on the iPad you would need to do it on your computer and the folder will be seen by your account on the iPad and iPhone only if they are IMAP and Exchange accounts. POP accounts are not supported for folders. 

  • Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    Im switching email accounts on my itunes account am the computer isnt recognizing purchases made from my other account on the new one (apps). How can I sign in with my new account and get the purchases apps on both accounts?

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

    how do you setup microsoft 365 email on an ipad 3?

    There is no retina scanner on the iPad. There is what Apple calls a Retina display. It means that the display has more pixels than the human eye can distinguish.

  • I used icloud to sync my new mini2 with my old ipad-3 do

    I used icloud to sync my new mini2 with my old ipad-3 everything went fine. I use itunes to BU my ipad & mini, and do not need family icloud. Is there any reason to stay signed in to icloud with my devices. Won't my ipad & mini sync contacts, calender etc. to each other with out icloud?
    Thanks!

    Thanks Winston. I asked because I can't get my Mini2 calender to sync with my ipad or outlook calender. Trying to eliminate what I don't need. I have everything set up properly AFAIK. Do I need something like a Exchange account to get the Mini calender to sync, or should it sync automatically.
    Ipad has been upgraded to iso 8.1.2. and it sync's to outlooks calender and vice versa, just Mini2 calender won't sync.
    thanks

  • What is the best ipad to get? ipad 1 with 64 gb or a i pad 2 with 16 gb

    What is the best ipad to get? Ipad 1 with 64gb or a ipad2 with 16gb?  Does a ipad2 *** with a 64gb?

    Welcome, trishkay!
    King_Penguin has given you some great input, but you have not given him any feedback.  Perhaps you are waiting for more suggestions from others?  Here are my thoughts on your question:

    Wait for iPad 3 and buy as many "gb" as you can afford.

    What you can afford with enough room for the music, pictures, videos, and apps you must have.

  • I have one playlist on iphone4. how can i add new playlist without deleting old one. i do not have old playlist in itunes any more.

    I have one playlist on iphone4. how can i add new playlist without deleting old one. i do not have old playlist in itunes any more.When i try to sync iphone with itunes it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs.

    "it says that this action will remove my old playlist and all songs."
    Are you connecting to a different iTunes library than you normally connect to?  That will erase the songs and playlists since the iPhone can't be connected to multiple libraries even if it is in manual sync mode.
    If you no longer have access to the original library that your iPhone calls 'home', then the only way to save the playlist (and the songs on your iPhone) would be to use a 3rd party application to extract your iPhone contents to this new iTunes library you're trying to connect to.
