You can't sync with more than one iTunes library. You will have to enable Manually Manage Music and videos in the iTunes settings and then you can drag and drop the songs onto her iPad. This also requires that you turn of auto syncing in iTunes.
Without connecting the iPad launch iTunes and from the menu go to Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Check that box. Click OK.
Now connect the iPad to the computer and you will have to launch iTunes on your own. Click on the iPad name under the devices heading. If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu and you should see her iPad under the devices heading. Go to the Summary Window on the righ and click on Manually Manage Music and Videos. Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
Now you should be able to drag and drop songs onto her iPad.

I want to put the songs from my mp3 onto my iPhone but everytime I go to do it it shows exclamation points next to my songs. How do I convert them to work with my iTunes and phone?
The "missing file" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then say no when asked to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. I can provide a step by step guide if you give me the two paths.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps and locate the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links. Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use myFindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

When I try to download a song onto my iPad from iTunes Match, my iPad says "Cannot connect to the iTunes Store" even though I have a perfect Internet connection.
Try a power cycled of the iPad.

I have songs on my ipod nano which I got from a friends computer. I want to put these songs in my itunes on my computer. Need help
ThanksI'm not trying to put the music from my old ipod onto my new computer!!!! I don't really want to do that!
I would like simply to see if there is a way to put the new music from my new computer onto my old ipod without erasing all my existing music that I have on there. -
I have just bought the new iPad but can't see how I would sync all my iPhone photos that are stored on iCloud onto my iPad. Can someone help?
Photos on the camera roll can be included in an icloud backup from an iOS device (if camera roll is turned on). But getting the photos back from a backup is risky. Many users have performed restore operations from a backup only to discover the photos were not returned. icloud is primarily used to sync photos to other devices using photo stream - but only new photos taken after the stream is turned on in Settings>icloud will actually be synced, not old photos.
Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage, tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
IMPORTANT...
Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album). You can then sync the photos to the iPad.

How do i switch from automatic to manual download of songs to my iPad from my iTunes library
how do i switch from automatic to manual download of my songs to my ipad in my itunes library
You can still manually add songs to the iPad even if the option is not set. Just drag them to iPad same way as when the option is set.
Select the iPad, click the Summary tab and tick Manually manage music and videos. -
Yeah, so this is what happened. I had an old iPod nano, and then my computer crashed and deleted eveything. Then, I got a new iPod, and I want to put songs that I had on a CD that I already had on iTunes before my computer crashed onto my new iPod, but I lost the CD. Is there a way for me to find those songs??? Kinda impossible, but is there genius out there that can help me out? Thanks.
The songs will only be where you put them.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Your music should be there. -
Itunes won't let me sync songs onto my ipod from my itunes library
i just want my music on my compuer on my ipod lol
What happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

I have put an album from CD into iTunes to play on my New iPad and the album has been broken down into 4 albums. So it shows as four albums on my iPad which is annoying as Ic only want to show it as one album. What do I need to do, as I have tried to put them on one playlist but it still shows it as 4 albums?
Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

When I try to sync my iTunes with my Ipad now the alert comes up that I am already synced with another computer and I have to restore and sync my iPad if I want to continue. I have already lost alot of music that I had purchased and I don't want to lose anymore.
Was your iPod associated with a different mac or pc previously is all. And was it backed up or sync'd on this mac with iTunes previously.

How do I put the songs on my iPod onto my iTunes
I put iTunes onto my laptop and want to put my songs from my iPod onto my iTunes, how do I do this or do I have to rip my cds again to put the songs onto iTunes?
If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

iGadget Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
iRepo Windows Only

There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod -

how can i transfer my songs from my nano to a new itunes account because when i try to it tells me that i need to errase whatever is on the nanno ans then i can sync whats on my itunes but i want to put these songs and store them onto this new itunes acc
Your i-device was not designed to be a reliable unique storage for your media. It is not a backup device and everything is structured around you maintaining your media on a computer which is itself backed up. Sync transfer is one way, computer to device, matching the device content to the content on the computer. If the computer has nothing on it, the device is set to match the computer's content -- nothing.The exception is purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will probably have to use third party commercial software unless you have an older model iPod. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
