HT1420 I am trying to authorize my iPad that used to be my daughters do I authorize from the iPad or the computer

When I authorize my iPad do I do it from my computer or from the ipad

Neither, authorising and deauthorising only applies to computers, not to iOS devices (iPads, iPhones and ipod Touches).
You can log out of your daughter's account on it by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if the iPad is on iOS 6+) and you can then login with your account (assuming that you have separate accounts). Any content that your daughter bought/downloaded will remain tied to her account, so only her account will be able to download updates to her apps.
If you will be syncing the iPad to a different computer to which your daughter synced it to then you may find this page helpful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • I am trying to sync my iPad to my computer.  When I do,  I am told that "This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on the iPad"

    I am trying to sync my iPad to my computer.  When I do, using either WiFi or USB connection, I receive the following message: "This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on the iPad "XXX".  Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store?" I have deauthorized and reauthorized repeatedly, and even trashed the SC folder, but the symptom continues.  I am using OS 10.9.3. iOS 7.1.1, and iTunes 11.2.2. Suggestions/solutions would be welcome!

    A link in the article that Texas Mac Man provided has several troubleshooting steps for "repeated requests for authorization":
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    Take a look to see if any of those steps will clear up you issue.

  • When trying to sync my iPad to my computer, I get the error "the iPad is synced with another iTunes library.

    When trying to sync my iPad to my computer, I get the error "the iPad is synced with another iTunes library. An iPad can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time." I only have one iTunes account, so I am a little confused. If I select the option to "Transfer Purchases, I get an error message that says "Attempting to copy to the disk failed. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
    Any suggestions is appreciated.

    Have you synced to this computer before?

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

    Have you ever changed your passcode?
    Try again.   Maybe a typo?

  • Do I need to get authorization from the software owner?

    I am using Captivate to do a software simulation. Do I have to get authorization from the software owner for sale my simulation of his software? Is the screencapture are copyrighted?
    Thank you.

    I'm actually trying to find out about using screenshots of Adobe software. I've done some Premiere Pro tutorials and I'd like to monetize them on YouTube but their conditions state "You can monetize videos showing software user interface only if you have a contract with the publisher or you have paid a licensing fee".
    I'm hoping that Adobe's Permissions and trademark guidelines (http://www.adobe.com/misc/permissions.html) would be enough but there's a problem there too. Adobe's conditions state "Your use must contain the entire screenshot. You may not use portions of the screenshots". That's hopelessly restrictive - obviously I want to be able to zoom in and show closeups of the interface. There's a form to apply for special permission (http://www.adobe.com/misc/pdfs/PermissionRequestForm.pdf) but it's not practical (e.g. every single usage must be renewed annually). I can't believe that all those tutorial producers on YouTube are jumping through these hoops to get the right permissions.
    So what is everyone doing? Just ignoring the whole permission thing and hoping for the best?

    Any ideas?

    in remote app click on the
    lower left corner on the text
    top of the context menu click devices
    choose the appletv rather then your shared lib in the list
    if you are trying to view a movie that is located on your ipad on your tv using the appletv then
    you should use airplay mirror not the remote app

  • HT4623 Why does connecting to S/W download fails whether from the computer or iPad?

    Why does connecting to S/W download fails whether from the computer or iPad?

    Where are you trying to download? My App Store app is working just fine.
    First thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    i have just dowloaded the icloud control panel on my PC and i am am able to see everything that has been pushed to icloud from my ipad. However i cannot see my email. i can send from the computer using icloud, but i do not see any mail that is being received by my ipad, which is set up with my mail server. What haven't i checked lol?

    turn your ipad off by holding the sleep wake button for 5 seconds and slide to turn off then turn it back on and the apps should be finished and if the apps didnt finish just redownload them

  • How to Create a Bootable Flash Drive to do a clean install of Lion.  I have tried to use the InstallESD.dmg but it still will not do a clean install so that I do not have to do a reinstall from the Recovery (That just re downloads and takes over 6 hours)?

    The system I'm have is a Mac-mini that had SL on it and no SuperDrive.  I have also call Apple Support and they have really have not been to much help over 1st did my up grade to Lion and Installed the Lion Server.... it lost my SSL that I paid for and kill almost on of my server setting, plus kill all my web servers (using apache vhosts), and not to say the LDAP will even let remote users login to your laptops.
    PS: There is no way that I'm going to buy a Install USB from Apple... They have over billed me over $300.00 because the Apps Store still has bugs (Glad I did not write that App/Service)
    If there is anyone that can give in the information to create a USB install stick, I would be very thinkful.

    Here you are bro, courtesy of "softpedia.com"....brilliant site!!!
    If you ever had problems with your Mac OS X installation you know that the first thing you should do is to check the startup volume using Disk Utility.
    After the check has ended and, if the errors exceed a certain level of seriousness, the Disk Utility application will require you to restart your Mac and use its Mac OS X Install disc counterpart.
    Other users may have to reinstall OS X altogether, but will find, or already know, that their SuperDrive (a CD/DVD reader and write combo drive) is not functioning properly and it will not be able to read the Install disc.
    Although this might happen to Mac OS X Leopard users due to faultyhardware, the vast majority of problematic SuperDrives will be encountered inside Snow Leopard running Macs.
    This is due to the updated SuperDrive firmware included in either the Install disc or the software updates one has to install to reach the latest version of OS X, namely 10.6.6.
    This can be fixed by flashing the SuperDrive’s stock firmware using free command line tools that one can find for free online (I will write about this process also, but at a later time because this article only focuses on allowing you to create your own alternative USB boot disc).
    If you are reading this last bit of information with skepticism, than you should know that it happened to me too. Despite all my tries to make it work properly, the SuperDrive kept on munching any inserted DVDs and just popped them out in about twenty seconds.
    The workaround to this issue was to create my own Leopard bootable USB memory stick. I am not suggesting a Snow Leopard bootable stick mainly because there are lots of users that have decided to buy the cheaper, Upgrade version, which I have not tested and, therefore, I’m not sure if it will work properly once written to a USB disk.
    And now, here are the exact steps you should follow in order to obtain a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) Install disc.
    Step 1 (If you already have the Leopard install disc DMG file you can skip to Step 2)
    Launch Disk Utility (you can find it inside /Applications/Utilities). Here select the Leopard Install disc in the list of drives on the left and click on the New Image menu entry at the top of the window. A save message will appear where you will have to select the Desktop as a destination.
    Step 2
    After Disk Utility has finished creating the Leopard DMG, insert your USB stick and erase all data and reformat the disk. To do this select the USB in the list of drives on the left and, after clicking on the Erase tab on the right side of the window, choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format and click the Erase button beneath.
    Step 3
    After the USB has been reformatted, download the SuperDuper app from HERE and launch it. Once SuperDuper starts, you will only have to select the DMG in the Copy drop-down menu, your USB memory stick on the right and hit the “Copy Now” button.
    One can also use Disk Utility for this task but creating a bootable USB stick failed 2 out 4 times when copying the DMG to the stick (with the exact same settings each time). Creating the bootable stick using SuperDuper proved to be the perfect way to do it because it worked each of the 4 times I tested it.
    The steps above can also be used to create a bootable Mac OS X Lion USB by using the InstallESD.dmg image you can find inside the Lion installer (named “Install Mac OS X Lion.app”) downloaded from the Mac App Store in the /Applications folder.
    To locate the InstallESD.dmg right click the Lion installer, select the “Show Package Contents” entry, go inside the “Contents” folder, and from there into the “SharedSupport” folder. Inside this folder you can find the InstallESD.dmg you can use to create your own bootable Mac OS X Lion USB stick. To do so, go to the third step described above and use the InstallESD.dmg as the DMG to be copied to your USB disc.
    That’s it! Once the process ends you will have a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) USB disk that you can use as an alternative to the Apple’s DVD Install disc that comes bundled with all Macs.
    To use your newly created bootable disk you will have to restart the Mac, press and hold the OPTION key until the StartupManager appears. Here, select the Mac OS X Install disk using your keyboard arrows and press return to start from the selected drive.

  • Can I sync email between iPad mini, iPad, and MacBook so that if I delete email using one device, it will also be deleted from the other two?

    Can I sync email between iPad mini, iPad, and MacBook so that if I delete email using one device, it will also be deleted from the other two?

    You have to set up the email account using IMAP instead of POP.
    What type of email address is it? Yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc?

    iPad requires Wifi (or 3G /LTE) to connect to the Internet. You cannot connect a USB modem to the iPad.
    You can create your own WiFi hotspot through your computer for your iPad to connect to, if your computer supports this functionality. All Wifi Macs and many Wifi PCs do. Check your computer manual for how to do it.
