HT201354 How to sync MacBook and iPad password

I Have recently purchased a MacBook Air. I put in a 4 digit code as a screen saver and when I logged back in it asked for my password but the 4 digit code did not work and now I can't open my device. I have tried my Apple ID password and my ipad 4 digit code (not the same code) but neither works. how can I use my iPad to reset my iMac device?

You cannot sync iPhone to iPad; you sync to computer.

  • How to sync desktop and iPad with Verizon e-mail?

    I've set up my mother's iPad with her e-mail account, which is through Verizon FIOS. She can send and receive fine on the iPad, but it doesn't sync with her desktop computer. For example, whatever she deletes on the iPad remains on the desktop, so she has to clean up her e-mail on her desktop computer regardless. Is there some way to fix the sync issue?

    Sounds like it is a POP3 mail account and the iPad is not set to delete the messages from the server. You have to go to the Advanced setting tab for the account and select when you want the messages deleted from the server.

    Turn off My PhotoStream in iCloud on both the iPad and the Mac. PhotoStream is what shares your photos (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta, in which case, all photos uploaded are accessible from all devices signed onto the same Apple/iCloud ID).

  • HT201269 Where are the notes from my iphone backup and how can I sync them with my new macbook and ipad. And my galaxy 3g if someone is feeling especially generous with their time and attention. Many thanks.

    - The iTunes backup that iTunes makes included photos in the camera roll. If yo go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices what is the date of the backup? Is it when the photos were on the iPod? You have to restore from that backup.
    - What may have happened is that you backup the iPod after you restored the iPod but before restoring from backup. iTunes only keeps one backup and overwrites the previous backup with the changes.

  • How do i watch movies from an external hard drive on my macbook and iPad?

    how can i watch movies on my macbook and ipad from an external hard drive?

    Import it into an iTunes library and then sync the iPod with that library. If desired, create a new library on that drive by launching iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down.

  • I am switching over from a PC to a MacBook Pro and an iPad.  How do I import my Outlook contacts into MacBook and iPad?

    I am switching over from a PC to a MacBook Pro and an iPad.  How do I import my Outlook contacts into MacBook and iPad?

    One option is forwarding your Outlook contacts as vCard files which can be imported by the Address Book on your Mac, followed by being synced with your iPad.
    In Outlook, select all contacts and at the menu bar select forward as vCard. Each contact will be a separate vCard file. Send the email to an email account you are accessing with the Mail app on your Mac.
    Save the attached vCard files in a folder created on your Desktop or in whichever chosen location for the folder. At the Address Book menu bar, go to File and select Import navigating to the folder that incudes the vCard files. Open the folder to select.

  • How to transfer itunes account to new macbook and ipad

    I have an itunes account which is linked with my iphone..  I have recently gotten a new macbook and ipad.  Is it possible to transfer from my current account to these new devices?  I do not have my old macbook which the itunes account originated from, only my iphone.  Do I have to create a new account?  Everytime I go to backup my iphone it says it will wipe out what is on it!!! I have  hundreds of songs, videos,apps etc etc etc.
    Thanks

    1) authorize iTunes on your new Mac for your iTunes store account (the one you used to purchase from the iTunes store)
    2) connect your iPhone and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it (as well as you iPad).

  • How to sync music and video from iPhone4 with iPad mini?

    I have music and video on my iPhone4 and I just got my iPad mini yesterday.  Does anyone know how to sync music and video between two devices?

    Apple doesn't enable you to copy certain items from your iPhone to your computer e.g.
    - songs that have not been bought in the iTunes store
    - photos from photo album (only allows photos transferred from camera roll)
    This is frustrating if you have lost these items on your computer - e.g. accidental deletion, hard disk failure.
    Its not that its not possible - just that the functionality is not included in iTunes. Its an example of Apple prioritising revenues over customer experience - hey they can do what they want with their reputation but should take care not to frustrate customers too much.
    However the Senuti (free) and PhoneView ($20) allows you to transfer items either way between computer and iPhone. Ive tried both and they work great. These are for OS X and there are many other applications available online for both Windows/Mac that allow you to treat the iPhone as just a plugged in disk too. You can try iPod Photo Liberator (Mac & Windows) iPodCopy (Mac and Windows Versions) Keith's iPod Photo Reader (Mac only).
    Good luck

  • I have a new ipad and want to restore my old..it asks for my ipad password.  How do I find the ipad password?

    I have a new ipad and want to restore my old..it asks for my ipad password.
      How do I find the ipad password?

    What password are you refering to? A passcode lock on the ipad itself or the password for your apple id?
    If its a pascode lock, then:
    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
    If its your apple id, then:
    My Apple ID

  • I just put Facetime on my MacBook and Ipad. I can connect and recieve video but no sound. The other person can hear me. If I use Skype everything works fine. I can't find any where in Facetime to change settings for the audio. Any suggestions

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
    Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)
    If recovery does not work there's:
