How do I transfer my Apps from my iPad to my computer so i can up date it??

ok so I haven't had an actual computer in a long time, and I can now finally update it. The problem is, is i can't figure out how to "transfer" my apps to the computer so i can do it . I don't want to loose every thing on it. if it helps the iPad is a first generation. I need this update.

You will lose your content if you attempt to sync to a computer that hasn't ben connected with the iPad before. Cancel the sync, right click on iPad (under devices in iTunes) and do a backup, which will transfer data. You can reload the apps from itunes store - quicklinks - purchased or 'transfer purchases'. Same for any music.

If you have anything not purchased from the store you will need a 3rd party program to transfer them.

  • How do I transfer my pics from the ipad to my computer

    I am not a big fan of the ipad. It closes apps in the middle of everything. I need to know how to get my pics off of it onto my laptop because I am thinking of selling it!

    Why don't you try the basic troubleshooting steps from the manual?  It should help with the apps closing.  Restart, reset, restore.
    You should be importing pics taken with the ipad regularly as you would from any digital camera.

  • HT202213 how do I transfer a book from my iPad to my computer

    how do I transfer a book form my library on my ipad to my mac computer

    It depends on what you mean by "transfer a book".
    The book can be stored on your Mac in iTunes; however, it can not be read on your Mac.
    To get the book "transferred" in that sense, such that it is stored in iTunes, sync your iPad using iTunes and make sure that while your iPad is plugged in to your Mac, you have checked the "Sync books" option on the books tab under the iPad's logo.

  • How do I transfer game apps from one IPAD 2 to another without losing points or awards? I have backed up, sync and restored, nothing is working...I have to start over and lose the awards I paid for?

    My first IPAD 2 wireless failed, so a second IPAD 2 was sent to me. I have game apps that aren't transfering at the levels I have achieved. Is there a way I can keep the game app levels where I am? ie, Planet fish< solitaire, Sudoku, bejeweled 2, shazam-(has saved my content)...so why has some of these not saved my content? Or is there something other than back up, syncing and restoring that will save what I have accomplished so far?

    Assuming that the Library is intact, then simply drag the back up to your internal HD - put it on the desktop and open it, to make sure all is well:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point it at the Library on the desktop.
    If it is, trash the one in your Pictures Folder and put the restored one in its place.

  • I have a new windows computer. How do I get my apps from my iPad to iTunes so that I can sync them please?

    iTunes ask asks if ok to delete apps on iPad and sync with iTunes but when I say yes it looks like it will delete all my apps and just sync the factory installed ones.

  • How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my Laptop?

    How do I transfer rental movies from my IPAD to my MAC?

    You can't.
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • HT201269 how do i transfer my apps from an old phone to a new one

    how do i transfer my apps from an old iphone to a new one

    If you need to keep the app data, i would suggest making an icloud backup, then restoring from that backup onto the new phone
    if you don't need to app data, you can transfer the purchases to itunes on a computer and sync them to your new phone, or you can just go on your new phone to app store > updates > purchased > then click the clouds next to each app to download them to the phone

  • How do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
    Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
    You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
    Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
    In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - Connect the iPod 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 include media like app and music.

    How do I get my apps from my ipad to macbook pro

    You use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes. This will only put the applications into the computer's iTunes library for storage or transport; running them on your computer requires the Mac OS X version, which is a separate product, and if the developer chooses, a separate purchase.
