How to sync 2 ipads

hi, i just bought new ipad and i want to sync it with my existing ipad apps in my imac...
my first question is how to sync it without wiping all of the existing apps?
second is can i do it?

Yes, you can do this. When you connect your iPad it creates a backup. So when you now connect your new iPad, and once it is set up, make sure you click on the new device name then click on Restore on the Summary page and choose your "old" iPad backup. This will transfer all settings - except keychain - to your new iPad.

    You don't, as such. You sync each device with iTunes, and then you can sync content with the other unit. See:

    They don't sync with each other, they sync individually to your iTunes Library on a computer. Syncing both will result in the same content on each.

    No. iOS 5.1.1 is the last version that runs on the original iPad.

    There is no suich thing as a Google iPad.  iPads are made by Apple not Google. What device do you have exactly? If its made by Google its not an iPad.  It may be a Tablet though.

  • How to sync Ipad and Iphone on the same computer

    My wife's iPhone is synched via iTunes on a PC whose hard drive just crashed. I have a laptop that sync's my iPad. I now want to sync her phone on the same laptop. We have separate itunes store account. How can she sync her phone with the laptop and not get the iPad information. We mostly want sync her email and her existing apps. Music and podcasts don't matter.

    not sure if this is a permanent fix but, ever since upgrading to itunes 11.3.1, my iphone5 seems to finish syncing on its own, now. didn't seem to be a problem anymore. at least after doing only one sync, since the upgrade.
    (stiil have a blank "purchased" page at itunes store, though).

  • How to sync iPad and iPhone 4?

    How do I sync an iPad and iPhone 4 so that they can both use my cellphone number?
    Also when I try to update my iPhone 4 in iTunes, it says my iPhone software update server could not be contacted, what does that mean?

    Just plug the two devices into the Mac, as if the other one didn't exist. iTunes will keep them separate and allow you control sync of apps and media content as you wish.
    As to iCloud, for the iTunes in the Cloud feature, if you use the same iTunes Store account on both the iPad and the iPhone, you'll want to turn off the automatic download option in the Settings -> Store preference pane on your devices. Then you can sync, download and update as you wish on each device.
    Regards.

  • How to sync ipad ios7 with new ipad mini ios6

    We have an ipad bought 2011 with ios 7 and have just bought an ipad mini with ios 6. How do we sync from the ipad to the ipad mini?

    You don't. Syncing is only supported between iOS devices and iTunes running on a Mac or PC.
    You can send individual documents between iOS devices using AirDrop, perhaps that's what you are referring to? For this both devices must be running iOS 7:

  • 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.
