HT1386 iPad Mini not syncing - Goes through steps 1-5 and does not add content

I am absolutly baffled by this one. I cannot seem to get iTunes to sync any conent over.
-The iPad is set up for syncing over the cable as Wifi sync is very buggy
-I've tried different USB ports
-i've restarted iTunes
-Restarted the iPad
-checked and unchecked the content
It is very odd. When I want to add music it the bar at the bottom indicated that this is how much it will fill up on the iPad etc etc. I click on sync and then it goes through it's various steps to determine tracks and then nothing.....
It just simply does not sync anything over even though there is 8GB of free space and plenty of room on the ipad so I know it is not a capcity issue. Any help would be great. Usually a long serving mac user would find a solution but in this case I am puzzeled.

Solved the problem, by upgrading to Mountain Lion.

  • I want to buy an hp m1536 laserjet for my ipad printing, I believe the printer is not wireless but has sprint. Is the print job going through my wireless router and does that router need to support AirPrint.

    I want to buy an hp m1536 laserjet for my ipad printing, I believe the printer is not wireless but has sprint. Is the print job going through my wireless router and does that router need to support AirPrint.

    The following model is airprint compatible, is this the one you have?
    HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf MFP
    If not the "dnf MFP" model, then no.
    The router needs to support the Bonjour protocol.  If not, the airprint won't work.

  • Is there a way of merging photos into one event on ipad mini without syncing from PC ?

    is there a way of merging photos into one event on ipad mini without syncing from PC ?

    Unfortunately cutting and pasting doesn't work.  The margins are so different for each document as the first document is a standard report with the text centered on the page while the second document is in the form of a letter that is off center toward the right side of the page.  Cutting and pasting either one into the other (I've tried both ways) alters both documents in a way that causes the images, quotes, etc that are interspersed throughout each of them to show up in the wrong place (and they cannot be moved to the correct location due to the differences in margin. 
    They really need to simply be placed end to end rather than trying to combine them into one.  This is apparently a simple thing with Pages on the Mac itself but it does not appear to be as simple with the iPad app.  Thanks anyway for your help.

  • HT1386 My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?

    Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
    Documents say
    Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
    But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
    And my  Ipad  (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc)  shows  a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
    Both are in the same network,
      Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
    . iTunes is open on the computer
    what can i Do ???

    Hi Skydiver119,  and tks for four interest.
    I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
    You indicated  " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
    I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
    I disconnect the wire,
    and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
    in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
    So, I can not sync via wi-fi
    I appreciate if you can help me.

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

  • I downloaded the new iOS 7 and i can't open safari in my iPad mini, what's going on?

    I downloaded the new iOS 7 and i can't open safari in my iPad mini, what's going on?

    You can't open it meaning it does not launch when you tap on the app icon? If that's what's happening try this and then see if Safari will launch.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
    Now close Safari. To close Safari, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Safari and then swipe "up" on the Safari thumbnail app to close it.
    Now reboot the iPad. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If Safari does launch and this isn't what you are experiencing - you need to explain in more detail what is going on.

  • When I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure, but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm

    Hi
    I have an uploading problem to the server. The problem is when I try to upload a file it goes through the correct proceedure,
    but does not change the remote file i.e.Index.htm, or three stages1.htm.
    My Localroot folder is C:\Gods Plan Web\
    The site map layout is C:\Gods Plan Web\Index.htm
    The folder for the remote site is /public_html/
    Should the local root folder mirror the remote site, i.e./public_html/
    if this is so, what should I put into the
    (a) Local Root Folder box?
    (b) site map layout box?
    The FTP is performing well other than changing the intended file.

    You should be uploading only the contents of your local root to the public_html folder (remote root).
    The index.html you use as your site's home page needs to be in your site root. If you look at your Files window in DW, you should have something like the following...
    Site - Whatever you named your site
         index.html
         images
         pages
              page1.html
              page2.html
    If you have any folder between Site - and the index.html page, like...
    Site - Whatever you named your site
         mywebsite
              index.html
    It will upload to the public_html while still in that folder, so to find your page online, you would need to type something like...
    www.mydomain.com/mywebsite
    public_html should NOT appear within your local files and if it existed there, would cause a redundancy if uploaded. You would need to type www.yourdomain.com/public_html to see the uploaded pages.
    If you could post a screen shot of your expanded Files window while connected to the server (just connect and click the Expand button in Files, don't drill down into any of the directories), we may be able to see the issue.

  • IPad mini not recognized by itunes 10.6.1 (7)?

    Why is new ipad mini not recognized by iTunes 10.6.1 (7)?  Running OSX 10.5.8 software on the Mac.  Software updates both report: "up to date"

    Sorry, but you need iTunes 11 which requires OS 10.6 or higher and a Mac with an Intel processor. In other words, you need a newer Mac.

  • Ipad mini (not retina) purchase question

    Hi, If I bought an ipad mini from an apple store tomorrow (not the retina one), would it come with ios6 pre installed?

    No way to know for certain.  Apple.com shows the ipad mini (not retina) as having ios 7.  If you are purchasing from a retail store, it will depend on if the device has been upgraded yet.

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
