How do i Sync my Free apps on My Ipad to my Macbook Pro

Dear Community,
I have never bought or downloaded free Apps on my Macbook Pro, but always did on my IPAD. So now i would like to SYNC my IPAD Apps to my Macbook Pro and i have tried everything and it doesn't seem to work.
I have went under the tab "FILE" in itunes and clicked transfer purchases from "MY IPAD" and since i only purchased one APP (PAGES) which i already have on my MacBook pro i guess it's normal that it does not sync???? But i have like 50 FREE Apps on my IPAD that i would like to sync to my MacBook Pro and regular syncing does not work. I checked Sync Apps under the ITUNES APPS tab and it still shows 0 APPS on my computer....what the ****?!!??
Can we only SYNC from computer to IPAD????
PLEAAAAAAASE HELP ME HELP MYSELF!!

But let me ask you...do you have to sync all tabs one by one.
No you do not.

Meaning when you click Sync under the tab "SUMMARY" it should sync all the other ones right?
You click Sync in the bottom right corner of the iTunes window - not in the Summary Tab. You can select sync settings in the summary tab and that is different.
The bottom line is when you click on Sync - it syncs ALL content that you have selected in iTunes to the iPad. You don't have to go though each tab - unless you want to make changes in the sync preferences - like you want to add a new app that you downloaded on your computer in iTunes - or you want to add more photos - changes like that have to be made in the various tabs in iTunes before you sync.

Syncing the 3GS is exactly the same as syncing the 4S - so just do the same as you've been doing.

TS1702 how do i sync/copy an app bought thru iPad to my mac?

I bought recipe organizing app via my ipad. How to sync/copy it to my other devices? Or to cloud etc?

You can download it via the purchases page in iTunes on the Mac, and to any of your compatible iOS devices through the purchases page in the itunes app.
You do realize it will not run on your Mac, right?

How. Do I get free apps on my iPad with out putting in credit card info?

Iam trying to get free apps without putting in a credit card how do I that please help!

You can set up an account with the payment type of None. If the current Apple ID you want to use was created more than 48 hours ago, you won't be able to change the payment type to None and will need to either create a new Apple ID account (using an previously unused email address) or provide a valid payment method to the account such as a credit/debit card or iTunes gift card.

How do I sync my iPhone and its contents to my new MacBook Pro?

Hi all.
I've just bought my first MacBook Pro and I'm very happy with it.
I'm just trying to set up iTunes with my iPhone which I've had over a year.
The problem is that iTunes isn't detecting all of the apps currently on my iPhone; only the recent purchases/downloads I've made using the new MacBook Pro.
I assume this is something to do with the fact that my iPhone is probably still 'synced' with my old Dell which is now dead.
How do I make it so that my new MacBook Pro and iPhone talk to one another without losing all of my data/settings/layout etc of everything on my iPhone?
Thanks in advance!

By design, the iPhone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are replacing your computer, your phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in itunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

How do i install a free osx or operating system on my macbook pro 2008?

Hey so the go is i have a macbook pro 2008 i love it too bits but for some reason my screen flickers all the time but ill just have to deal with it. Secondly i cant install any operating systems because i dont have a mac to download osx from or mountain lion. And when i go to download it directly from my macbook pro it says i need to buy it :/ or i dont have the licence i cant remember but i just want it working whoever can help me i would much appreciate!! thankyou for reading this and also ps my screen when im on the net on it in the safari osx menu it intermittly spazzes and all the url bars keep clicking etc i dont know what the problem is but i would appreciate some advice or help! it is a good machiene quiet no damage looked after just got it given to me from a family member but i have had no luck so far

Jamesandmacbooks,
if by “free” you mean “gratis” (as opposed to, say, “open source”), then there’s only one version of OS X to date that’s gratis, namely Mavericks. You can only download Mavericks if you currently have Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later installed. If you’re still running Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5.something) on your 2008 MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to first purchase the white retail Snow Leopard DVD, install it on your MacBook Pro, and run Software Update to get it to 10.6.8, after which you can download Mavericks gratis from the Mac App Store and install that. Be sure that your MacBook Pro meets all of Mavericks’ system requirements before trying to install it. If you currently run any PowerPC apps, note that they won’t be supported in any version of OS X after Snow Leopard.

My 5s iphone has stopped syncing anything except Apps from i tunes on my Macbook Pro. Even if I select the Music tab it still only looks for Apps to sync

My 5S iphone has suddenly stopped syncing anything except Apps. I have selected the music tab in i tunes and asked for it to sync entire music library but all I get is a message looking for which Apps to sync and after a brief time it stops doing any syncing at all. Consequently a new playlist I added to i tunes on my computer has not migrated to the iphone. This has never been an issue before so I'm a bit lost to know what to do.

Under the Music tab is the "Sync Music" checkbox ticked? Beneath that have you defined what music you want to sync?

Does anybody knows how can i sync my hotmail contacts mail n notes into my macbook pro?

I have my hotmail account that i want to sync into my macbook pro I'm running mavericks but i cant sync my hotmail contacts and pop mail ?

Unless Hotmail supports the open standard CardDAV, then you cannot "sync" the contacts.
POP Mail does not "sync"mat all. You can set up Mail, and other clients, to not download the messages from the server allowing all of your devices to download the messages, but it won't keep track of what you read or if you deleted an email.

How do I transfer a movie file from my iPad to my MacBook Pro?

I recently accidentally deleted all media files that existed in the iTunes Media folder on my MacBook Pro. I have managed to recover almost every file, the only one I have yet to recover is a movie that was redeemed through iTunes after I purchased it as part of a DVD/Blue-Ray/Digital Copy combo pack. It is no where to be found on my hardrive yet the 'phantom' file still extsts within my iTunes library. After checking all of our family's Apple devices (2 iPhones, 5 iPads, 1 older MacBook, & 1 MacBook Pro) I was delighted to discover the movie still exists on my stepson's iPad Mini! Only now I cannot seem to find a way to 'transfer' this movie file back onto my MacBook Pro. I am refusing to sync or update his iPad Mini in fear that I might loose the only copy of the movie I have left! Can someone please help me transfer this file back to my MacBook Pro? Thanks so much!

This talks about iTunes 10, but it should work the same way in iTunes 11. Transferring purchases for an iDevice to your Mac.

It should be File>Devices>Transfer Purchases, I think
You must be using the same Apple ID in iTunes on your Mac that your son is using on the Mini or the movie will not transfer.

How can I have Facetime callers distinguish between my Ipad and my MacBook Pro?

I'm wondering how does one set things up so that a Facetime caller can distinguish between calling me on my iPad versus calling me on my MacBook Pro? I have family calling me and it is popping up on the MacBook when, ideally, the call would come through to my Ipad when I'm traveling?

Hello Mac_ThePI,
In FaceTime's preferences, you can choose what Apple IDs and/or phone numbers you can be reached at. You might choose to make the phone number or certain Apple IDs the only checked option(s) on your iPad, and others on your Mac.
