How do I sync with my computer

I cannot sync with my computer

Hi guys!
I'm having the same problem with syncing my iPad 3 to my PC.
When I connect my iPad 3 and open iTunes, the iPad 3 is not listed under Devices, because the word "Devices" does not show up in the left sidebar.

TS4062 how to Wifi Sync with new computer

My iphone wants to wifi with a computer that no longer exists. how do I get it to look for a new computer? I teathered it to my main computer and authorized it. Still looks for wrong computer. ***

iDevices are not backup devices.
Attempts to sync an iDevice to a new computer will result in the media on the device being removed and replaced with the media from the new computer (i.e. nothing).
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

How can I start using IPad without first syncing with my computer?

I'm out of town and just bought a new IPad2. I don't have my computer with me and won't be able to use it for another 2 weeks. How can I start using my IPad before syncing with my computer?

You must activate it by syncing it to iTunes on a computer. An Apple Store can do it for you - or anybody with a computer that meets the minimum requirements and has iTunes 10.2 on it can activate it for you.
If you have someone else activate it, bear in mind that when you do finally sync to your computer, iTunes is going to tell you that all content will be erased because you already set it up on another computer with another iTunes library. Your iPad will sync to one iTunes library only. That is way they are designed to perform.
You CAN transfer any purchases that you make on the iPad to your iTunes library when you perform your first sync with your own computer, however, and I would strongly suggest that you do that when you get the chance.
If you do set it up with another computer, I would keep the purchases and downloads to a minimum so that keeping all of your data is not a big problem when you finally sync to your own PC.

-Transfer iTunes purchases to the compuer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discusssed here:
Copy music
- Connect the Ipd to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not contain synced media like apps and music.

If you have an iCloud backup, restore it to your phone as explained here: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521. If you have a backup on your computer instead, restore it to your phone by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Restore from Backup.
