How is the best way to sinc my iPad 2 to my MacBook pro

I have a new MacBook pro. I have transferred my iTunes library to the MB. I would like to sync my iPad 2 to the MB. What is the best way to do this? The MB iTunes library has 2200 songs while the iPad has 1300.
Thanks

If you start iTunes, then under the iTunes on the menu bar, Preferences, then Devices check the box for prevent iDevices from automatically syncing.  That will keep the iPad from syncing the entire music library, and you can check the music you want it to sync.

  • What is the best way to make and organize home videos? Macbook Pro? iPad?

    I have a Sony Handycam HD camcorder and a macbook pro.  Right now, I'm creating home videos by dumping all raw video into iMovie, adding a date/time stamp and saving the video to an external hard drive.  Is this the best way for me to create and store these home videos with my current setup?  I also take some video with my iPhone and include them in the iMovie projects as well.  I want these videos to be around for a long time and I'm afraid I'm going to lose them since I've graduated from DVDs to actual .mov files.
    With that said, I would like to find a more streamlined approach.  Idealy, I would love to replace my macbook pro with an iPad and use the iMovie app to process all of my home videos and then save to iCloud or an external hard drive.  Is this possible? 

    Deleting the application from your /Applications folder is sufficient. There are sample projects in /Library/Application/Aperture you may want to get rid of as well, as they take up a fair bit of space.

    DO NOT delete files in your Home Folder -> Library tree as there are things like your iPhone backups, your email messages, your application preferences, etc...
    DO NOT delete files outside your home folder, as you may end up deleting something essential to Mac OS X, and turn your Mac into an expensive “Door Stop”.
    I will point out that you will find some very large files in private -> var -> vm (these are the Mac OS X virtual memory paging files (swapfiles) and where Mac OS X stores the copy of RAM when your Mac is put to sleep).  The swapfiles get deleted on reboot, and the sleep image is just going to be created again when you put your Mac to sleep.
    If you think you have found something to delete outside your home folder, it would be best to ask first before deleting.  There are many examples of people deleting files outside their home folder, or renaming files, or changing the ownership or permissions of files, and then their Mac stops running.  Do not be one of those people.  Ask first.

  • What is the best way to extract all my information from my macbook pro?

    i wanna extract all my info, put it into an external hard drive and erase it from my mac.

    If you plan on buying a apple laptop you have two options. You can use time machine or pull the data off of it directly and put it onto the external. I advise the second choice. This way you do not have stuff that you dont need filling up the space on your new drive. Get your applications, music, documents, photos, videos and perhaps downloads and desktop; Put all of these on your external. And then reinstall osx onto your drive.
    *** If buying a windows machine next check the format of the drive in disk utility. You will need a program called Paragon NTFS to format the drive window compatibility. You have to pay for the free version but can download a trail version for free.

  • What is the best way or method (s) to clean up my MacBook Pro? Do you recommend any 3rd party applications such as "Cocktail" to do it for me?

    I am looking at clearing cache, speeding things, clearing out junk etc

    Please don't use any third party app to cleanup a Mac.
    OS X takes care of that itself.

  • Whats the best way to transfer iTunes library from pc to macbook pro?

    i have already used the migration assistant and my itunes library is missing alot of music

    Several options.
    Just use a portable device.  Copy to drive and then copy to drive.  Then disconnect and connect to the Mac.  Just drag songs to library.
    If on same network you can do the copy command from the Mac directly by going to your pc drive from the Mac.

  • How is the best way to send data from local database into remote database ?

    Hi all,
    I need to send data from local Oracle database into remote oracle database. Both sites connected via 128 kbps frame relay connection.
    The sending need to be done once a week, can be done nightly.
    How is the best way to do this ?
    Thank you very much,
    xtanto

    How is the best way to do this ?How much are you planning to send?
    You can use COPY command. Ensure that you have valid database link between two databases.
    Available options are:
    create - creates a new table. errors out if the destination table exists.
    replace - drop the destination table and re-creates with data.
    insert - inserts data if the destination table exists.
    append– appends data into an existing table.
    use set arraysize 5000 -The arraysize specifies the number of rows that SQL*Plus will retrieve from the database at one time.
    copy from scott/tiger@ORCL to scott/tiger@ORCL92 create new_emp using select * from emp;

  • How is the best way to manage the stats table?

    Hello!
    I have the Integration 2.1 working with an Oracle 8.1.7 db. I noticed that the table
    STATS is growing pretty fast.
    How is the best way to manage this table?... I haven't found something related with
    this issue in the documentation, but at least I want to know how to safely delete
    records from this table.
    For example, if I know the minimal time I have to keep in the table, is quite simple
    to create a shell script and/or Oracle pl/sql job to trim the table.
    I hope somebody can help me!!!!
    Thank you!

    My backup plan is to use Time Machine to make a backup to an external disk drive plus I also do a clone of my system disk. So far between the bootable clone and the Time Machine backup this plan has covered all of my needs.

  • I need to install Internet Explorer 6 or greater on my iMac to work with a program.  How is the best way to do that?

    I need to install Internet Explorer 6 or greater on my iMac (intel processor) running MacOS 10.6.8 to work with a program.  How is the best way to accomplish this?

    There is no way.  IE has not been available for the Mac for years now.
    Your only option is to install native Windows and use that - either through a bootcamp dual-boot scenario, or use a virtual machine to run windows in (eg. Parallels or VMWare Fusion).  Either way, you will need a full retail install disk for Windows.
    P.S. the last version of IE for Mac was for PPC machines, and it was discontinued in 2003.
