HT1766 I cannot sync my new iPad

I cannot sync my New iPad ... Always stuck at step 2 .. Please help

I'll give your suggestion a try. It's strange I only have a small portion of my iTunes libary on my iPad. I understand that the free music may not appear, I would just like all of iTunes music there.
Merry Christmas. ASCwes

  • Compatible app downloaded in itunes but cannot sync to new ipad

    I purchased new ipad today (16gb wifi+3g) and updated itunes, etc. Downloaded app called "Ignitemobile" and it is in my itunes but when I want it to sync to my ipad it won't and a message comes up "....requires newer version of iPad software" I've already got the latest 3.2.2 as the app requires 3.2.2 or above. I've removed it and reinstalled it and the same message comes up. I've got iTunes 10.1. I'm stumped. Help?! I really need this business app installed ASAP.

    There is a problem coordinating the new IOS 4.2 and the apps. Right now, there are scattered apps that require 4.2 despite the fact that it's not yet released. I have an Xfinity app with the sme issue. This will be resolved no later than the end of this month.

  • HT1414 i cannot sync my new ipad air to my laptop windows 8.1, tried updating itunes etc

    I cannot complete a sync with my ipad air to my laptop. I've tried updating itunes on both but same problem of 'waiting for changes to be applied' message coming up. My iPhone with the same software connects and syncs ok. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Are you running the latest iTunes (11.0.3)?
    If so, check this troubleshooter:

    I have a brand new ipad with iOS 6.1.3 and an imac with OS 10.5.8. I cannot update my OS on this machine, but want to sync the new ipad. What can I do?

    If it's an Intel Mac, you can upgrade it to Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, you need to use these instructions and/or iTunes Match to put content on the iPad.

    Not with your current user id.
    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
    Really?
    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

  • How can I sync my new iPad with my itunes account on my 4 yr old macbook? I plugged the iPad in once and all music synced. The 2nd time it said update needed. Mac says no update available.

    " how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
    You cannot.  Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
    it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
    Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content.

  • Itunes ejects Ipod before syncing (after new Ipad connected)

    I don't know if anyone can help me, but I recently added (synced) a new IPad to my Itunes on my Macbook.
    Since then, when I try to sync my Ipod, Itunes either doesn't recognise my Ipod, or starts syncing bt then comes up with a message "disc not ejected properly" and then stops the sync entirely without anything being transferred to my Ipod.
    Any ideas?

    trying to get back on topic re the original post -
    i.e. I also have an iPod (classic 160) that now will not mount properly.  In both regular mode and in DISC MODE it shows up momentarily on my Apple desktop, but as soon as iTunes loads, the iPod ejects automatically from Finder.  So it never appears in iTunes, and therefore cannot be restored via iTunes; and the iPod icon on my desktop is inaccessible for the few seconds that it remains "mounted".
    Tried another cable; switched from powered hub to the USB2 port direct from my MacBook Pro; reinstalled iTunes; checked Software Update.
    Resetting the iPod via the usual hold Menu and Select works, but this has no effect on the issue  - it only resets my iPod settings so my menus get screwed up.
    Switching to Disc Mode just renders the iPod itself inaccessible - it still doesn't mount so I can't check the drive contents to see if the files have been corrupted etc.
    Any ideas?  The iPod still plays, so it's not like the hard drive is dead . . . but I can't sync it since it won't load in iTunes before it auto-ejects.
    The problem became evident after iTunes stalled during iPod sync - wheel of death.  After trying to wait it out over an hour, I had to Force Quit.  I then hit restart, but the laptop stalled (blue screen of death, grey progress wheel of death) and I eventually had to force reboot using the power switch to shut down.  After that, the ipod wouldn't mount.
    TIA

  • 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.

  • Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to sync my new iPad. Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook? I'm angry!

    Does anyone else think that the AppleMac group of products are marketed in a greedy way? I have MacBook Pro 10.5.8 with Leopard and am now told that I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard so that my system can download the relevant iTunes upgrade to sync my new iPad and get my audiobooks (which don't appear anywhere on the device right now). Of course there isn't enough memory on the MacBook and Snow Leopard costs more also? I don't have financial resources to pay for all the new memory requirement and related upgrades they say I need just to sync my iPad with my purchases.

    Thanks for the reply but I already knew this. $20 for Snow Leopard which asks for 5gb free memory. I can only see that I have 4 gb (which I feel is rather a pathetic amount of available memory for any computer). To upgrade this computer's memory will cost another fee (I haven't researched this yet but gather it's more than $20). Then of course I could also be told that the OSX Mackbook Pro that I have can't be memory upgraded - which means I'm being told to buy a new computer - hence my very frustrated last email. I have been given a lovely iPad 2 as a present and now can't sync at all with anything because of this ongoing upgrade nightmare. How on earth am I going to be able to sync my movies, audiobooks etc to this new device??

  • I synced my new iPad with my new macbook and when I tried to then sync my iPhone as well it says that all apps will be replaced with apps in my library. How do I sync without losing all of my existing iPhone apps?

    My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

  • Hi there - do you know if I will be able to sync a new ipad with ios5 with a backup from my now defunct ipad2 ios 4.3.3 ?

    Hi there - do you know if I will be able to sync a new ipad with ios5 (or even an ipad 3 if it ever gets released !) with a backup from my now defunct ipad2 ios 4.3.3 ?
    Thanks

    You will be able to restore from the backup of the old iPad and then sync all of the other content but you may need to update a bunch of apps in order for them to work with iOS 5 - but yes - you can use that backup.

  • Syncing a new iPad 2

    I am going to buy an iPad 2 whilst on holiday in the USA, I am from the UK. Do I need to take my home laptop with me to sync the new iPad 2 to my iTunes account or will it work straight out of the box without syncing?

    will work straight out of the box, just need a wifi connection

  • Resolved - iTunes cannot sync apps to iPad "ipadName" because the apps installed on the iPad could not be determined.

    Current setup
    - Dell Destop running Windows XP SP3
    - iTunes 10.5 as of 11/02/2011
    - iPad 2 iOS 5.0 as of 11/02/2011
    I recently got the error message iTunes cannot sync apps to iPad "ipadName" because the apps installed on the iPad could not be determined.  I had already upgrade the iPad to iOS 5.0 several weeks ago and had no issues.  I had also sync'f many many times in the past with no issues.
    I was able to sync on Sunday and then "All of a sudden", I could not sync on Monday.  Tried closing out all my apps on the iPad, that didn't help.  Tried restarted my desktop and the iPad and then sync, that didn't help.  Tried logging into my AppleID account via iTunes and iPad to see if that would clear up anything in the background, that didn't help.  I also couldn't really find anything on the web that helped.
    Come Monday, I decided to just delete the apps from iPad manually and go about it that way.  When I tried to delete the app, it did not give me the (x) option to delete. Weird?  Did a quick search online and someone suggested that the Restriction to delete apps was OFF.  DING, DING, that was it.  Checked my settings and sure nough, I had made that change late on Sunday.  Enabled the ability to delte my apps and was able to delete my apps.  Then I thought, would this also fix my sync issue?
    Crossed my fingers and attempted to sync my iPad in iTunes and like Emeril Says "Bam"!  I was able to sync my iPad once again without having to reset my iPad, etc. 
    I hope this helps many of you save several hours.  I also think that Apple should add additional verbage to that message such as check that you are not restricting the deletion of apps or something like that.

    Based on an online post, I tried the following and it worked for me:
    1. Windows 7: Control panel > Device Manager
    2. Right click my PC's name > "scan for hardware changes"
    3. Restart iTunes
    4. Restart IPad
    5. Connect IPad
    6. Still I got the same error
    7. Restart iTunes
    8. Restart IPad
    9. Connect IPad
    10. It worked and I was able to sync the apps!!
    Prior to this I had removed few apps, not sure that was a trigger.
    System: IPad 1, IOS 5.x
