How do I synch iTunes U pdfs?

Hi,
I just loaded some pdfs, videos and audio files into iTunes and made them all one iTunes U collection.
I tried synching it with my iPad, but only the video- and audio-files get synched, the pdfs don't appera on the iPad.
Why?

Simple Fix
if you have a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection!
I think you need 'Home Sharing' rather than 'Synching'.

  • How do you synch Itunes between pc and laptop

    I have a PC (windows 7) and a laptop (windows 8.1) where the ITunes music has gotten a bit out of synch since I originally copied the ITunes library to the new (at the time) laptop.
    Is there any way that I can synch these 2 machines?

    Does Home Sharing only work when both machines are switched on and both are connected to the Home Sharing network
    Home Sharing works when both computers have iTunes running and they are on the same local network.
    Yes, you can run Home Sharing then update both computer so they match.
    Then when you go on holiday, they will be the same.

  • Sync iTunes U PDFs

    Hi,
    I've set up syncing of all iTunes U lessons and this works perfectly for audio and video but not for the PDFs. I have to change the Media Kind to Book to get them synced with iBooks.
    Did I miss how or where the iTunes U PDFs get synced automatically? Or is there a more convenient way to get them synced? At the moment when changing the Media Kind I'm loosing the order and any additional information of such PDFs.
    Thanks!

    They're not supposed to sync automatically, though I agree it would be nice if they did, presumably getting their own iTunes U collection automatically.

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • How do I get iTunes to sync working PDF files to iPad (iBooks)?

    iTunes is synching PDFs into its books section (I can confirm the latest file times) but not passing the updated PDF to iPad iBooks during syncs (the file is selected for sync).  How do I get iTunes to sync the latest PDF to iPad without manually deselecting and then reselecting to force a sync?

    The problem here is that iTunes wants to make sure that the songs that were purchased are sent to the same device that purchased them.  In this case, you would need to authorize your computer first.   This is as easy as opening iTunes, find "store" in the upper status bar, and select Authorize This Computer.   A dialogue will pop up asking for your iTunes ID and your password.  Enter the ID you purchased the songs with.  Afterwords, you should be able to sync the songs.

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

    See if this user-tip for syncing to a new computer helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    If you have music from other sources on your phone (e.g. copied from CDs) and you don't have them on a backup, then there are some program listed half-way down this page which might be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error  "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

    How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
    A couple of other items:
    1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
    2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
    I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

    The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device.  Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
    Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click  File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do I synch multiple ipods to my iTunes

    I have 3 iPods - a mini, a nano, and a regular kind. How can I synch them all to the same computer containing iTunes? I also want to download different contecnt on each, as I have far more content than the amount of space on the nano...and of course, I use them for different purposes.

    See these instructions on how to do this, Gabor:

  • How do I synch my existing Itunes music library to my new Iphone?

    I had/have an IPOD nano with an extensive library of music.  How can I synch this to my IPhone?  I went into Itunes on my computer with the Iphone plugged into the computer via a charging doc.  But I did not see a synch option in Itunes.  Do I need to reload Itunes to get a more up to date copy or something? That way I can carry only the Iphone and have video capability too as my nano did not have that - it is too old.

  • How do I synch my ipad ios.8.1.2 to my itunes data

    How do I synch my I pad II (ios.8.1.2) to my iTunes data on my PC?

    If you want to sync content from your computer's iTunes to your iPad (you've synced the iPad to that computer before ?) then connect your iPad to your computer and select it in your computer's iTunes - on the current version of iTunes you should get a device icon next to the content category icons at the top left of the iTunes screen, click on that icon. On the left-hand side of the screen you should then get a series of categories which you can use to select and sync content from your computer to your iPad.

  • How do I synch my iPhone5, MacBook Pro and Apple TV so that my iTunes downloads appear automatically on all three devices?

    How do I synch my iPhone5, MacBook Pro and Apple TV so that my iTunes downloads appear automatically on all three devices?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.
