How to plug ipad to pc for first time

how do I sync my new ipad 2 to my windows xp? do i need a specific program?

Have you turned on the iPad an activated it yet?
If you have, make sure the computer is authorized in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer.
Connect the iPad to the PC and iTunes should start up sync automatically. You need no other application except iTunes.

  • My refurbished iPad 3 charged for first time it and charger got very hot is that normal

    just replaced my refurbished iPad 3 with another.  Tried to charge it for first time.  Noticed it got very hot and so did charger.  I don't recall my other iPad doing this  is this a defect in the ipad?

    Define "hot".
    If fully drained both the battery (that essentially fills up most of the body of the device) and the charger will get quite warm, though not unbearable. Time to charge will vary according to device: my iPad 4 takes about 6 hours if almost flat, but takes about 40 min if at 75%.
    Be sure to use ONLY its original charger OR chargers that are rated for iPads. They draw twice the current as phones and will cause phone chargers to get much warmer than usual.

  • How to sync iPad with apps for 1st time to iTunes?

    Hi -
    Can't find the answer to this question directly, hence posting it here.
    My nephew's iPad has many apps , and photos, and he has never synced it to iTunes. He want's me to help him. I'm reasonably familiar with both iPad and iTunes.
    However - I'm worried that when he connects to iTunes for the 1st time he will have the iPad wiped clean by the empty iTunes session.
    I have searched high and low but can't find a reassuring set of steps to follow.
    Hence I would be very grateful to anyone who can point to complete, thorough online instructions, or offer them yourself, on what _precisely_ I must do to get his iPad synced to a new iTunes session for the very first time, without loosing the iPad content.
    We need to upgrade the OS badly (its the OS released from the shop purchase).
    thanks, for what is probably a question asked with a thoursand variations.
    Kind regards,
    Kevin Nolan,
    Dublin, Ireland.
    PS: Apple - if you readt this - iTunes and syncing is a very tricky to handle, with potential dire consequences if you do it wrong even once. At a minimum, please offer greater felxibility and more detailed tutorials across various troubleshooting scenarios such as mine

    Thank you both for your time and responses
    roaminggnome - my nephew was 10 when he got it and his family are not particularly computer savy. It didn't occur to them that syncing was such a priority. Thanks for the pointer to Apple feedback - I'll post my suggestion to them (I'm sure they've received it many times before!)
    Demo - that other thread looks absolutley excellent and your detailed instructions there look spot on - thank you.
    Thanks to you both again - genuinely appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Kevin.

  • How to sync iPhone with iTunes for first time without setting up as a new iPhone

    I have an iPhone 5 that I have never sync:ed with iTunes on my Mac, I have just set it up and purchased apps etc from the iPhone itself.
    Now I would like to sync with iTunes for the first time with the iPhone but when I connect it, iTunes asks me if I want to setup the iPhone as a new iPhone (I assume form scratch) or from a backup from other iPhones that have been sync:ed with my Mac.
    Now I dont want to setup this iPhone from scratch and erase everything thats on it, I just want to sync with my Mac, download apps, music etc. How do I do that and get beyoind the first screen that asks about setting up as a new iPhone ?
    /Kjell

    Hi I think I've found a workarround. I'm currently copying all files on my iPhone to the new PC using this program: http://www.getsharepod.com/download/
    After all files are copied I think I can enable sync in the new iTunes and delete the iPhone, then add the copied files in new playlists.
    I'll let you know.

  • How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
    First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
    Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
    That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

  • I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I recently got an extension cord for my ipad charger and the first time I used it it worked and now when I plug it in to my ipad It doesn't do anything. What do I do?

    I think that we all understood what you meant. If the extension cord is no longer working, then return it.
    We are all trying to tell you that you can plug the power block into a standard household extension cord - using the short cord that came with the iPad - and there is no need for the extension cord that you bought.

  • How do I activate factory unlocked iphone 5 for  first time

    How do I activate factory unlocked iphone 5 for  first time?Should i connect to itunes?Or should I put the sim first and then ON the device?Pls help me

    Yes.
    Insert the SIM card and power the iPhone on to find out. Nothing bad can happen if you can't and if you can't for some reason, connect the iPhone to iTunes.

  • HT1178 I'm setting up airport for first time. I'm getting error no DNS servers help

    I'm setting up airport for first time. Getting error no DNS servers. What is DNS server and how do I fix this?

    DNS server is that translation from a website address in words meaningful to us.. eg www.google.com to an actual number that computers can use. Without DNS the internet may work but you would have to know the ipv4 address of every site you want to visit.
    Whenever you don't know the meaning of a term just type wiki plus the term in google search.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System
    We cannot really help fix the problem without knowing a good deal more info.
    So
    What modem do you have.. make and model may be a help?
    Who is your ISP.. may be helpful??
    Is the modem also a router?
    How is the TC connected to the modem?
    How is the computer connected to the TC?
    A primary example of where you get this problem is a pure cable modem.. ie has no router in it.
    When you replace an existing computer or router that is plugged into it, with the TC, requires that you power cycle the modem. In some cases the off time is 5min.. for a lot of services, it needs to be off 20min.. and for some even longer.. maybe an hour or overnight.
    But it is not worth getting into specifics without knowing the rest of the system.

    Just connect it to a computer's USB port.
    Most wall chargers are dual voltage (110- 220 volts) and only require a plug adopter. Check the wall charger to see if yours is.

  • Performance issue in browsing SSAS cube using Excel for first time after cube refresh

    Hello Group Members,
    This is a continuation of my earlier blog question -
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a1e424a2-f102-4165-a597-f464cf03ebb5/cache-and-performance-issue-in-browsing-ssas-cube-using-excel-for-first-time?forum=sqlanalysisservices
    As that thread is marked as answer, but my issue is not resolved, I am creating a new thread.
    I am facing a cache and performance issue for the first time when I try to open a SSAS cube connection using Excel (using Data tab  -> From Other Sources --> From Analysis Services) after daily cube refresh. In end users system (8 GB RAM but around
    4GB available RAM), for the first time, it takes 10 minutes to open the cube. From next run onwards, its open up quickly within 10 secs.
    We have daily ETL process running in high end servers. The configuration of dedicated SSAS cube server is 8 core, 64GB RAM. In total we have 4 cube DB - out of which for 3 is full cube refresh and 1 is incremental refresh. We have seen after daily cube
    refresh, it takes 10 odd minutes to open the cube in end users system. From next time onwards, it opens up really fast with 10 secs. After cube refresh, in server systems (32 GB RAM, around 4GB available RAM), it takes 2 odd minutes to open the cube.
    Is there, any way we could reduce the time taken for first attempt ?
    As mentioned in my previous thread, we have already implemented a cube wraming cache. But, there is no improvement.
    Currently, the cumulative size of the all 4 cube DB are more than 9 GB in Production and each cube DB having 4 individual cubes in average with highest cube DB size is 3.5 GB. Now, the question is how excel works with SSAS cube after
    daily cube refresh?
    Is it Excel creates a cache of the schema and data after each time cube is refreshed and in doing so it need to download the cube schema in Excel's memory? Now to download the the schema and data of each cube database from server to client, it will take
    a significant time based on the bandwidth of the network and connection.
    Is it anyway dependent to client system RAM ? Today the bigest cube DB size is 3.5 GB, tomorrow it will be 5-6 GB. Now, though client system RAM is 8 GB, the available or free RAM would be around 4 GB. So, what will happen then ?
    Best Regards, Arka Mitra.

    Could you run the following two DMV queries filling in the name of the cube you're connecting to. Then please post back the row count returned from each of them (by copying them into Excel and counting the rows).
    I want to see if this is an issue I've run across before with thousands of dimension attributes and MDSCHEMA_CUBES performance.
    select [HIERARCHY_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_hierarchies
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    select [LEVEL_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_levels
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    Also, what version of Analysis Services is it? If you connect Object Explorer in Management Studio to SSAS, what's the exact version number it says on the top server node?
