  • HT201269 I cannot restore my new ipad mini from itunes

    When trying to set up new iPad mini from iTunes backup, it does not complete and starts back on the Set Up iPad screen.

    Other than the Hotspot feautre, there is no way to connect iPad and iPhone through bluetooth, because there's nothing they can do when connected.
    I am assuming what the person at the Apple Store showed you was the Hotspot feature, in which case you need to Turn on Hotspot,  and then turn on Bluetooth.

  • Cannot get PDF files to load on the iPad Mini from iTunes!

    Cannot get PDF to load on the iPad Mini through iTunes (latest version).   I could easily do this on the iPod Touch.   So what is missing?

    I solved my problem.  It turns out the default in iTunes is NO Sync for books or podcasts.  Once I turned that on I had success.   That wording should be included in the explanation on how to transfer PDF files to the iPad.

  • How do I put music on my iPod from itunes and icloud

    I recently uploaded my music from itunes up to icloud. 
    Today I put my ipod classic to itunes and 'synced' and found that the only songs that are now on the ipod are ones itunes hasnt uploaded to icloud or songs I 'downloaded' icloud to me itunes on my mac
    Please dont tell me the only way I can sync the Ipod is to redownload all my songs from icloud onto Itunes again...23000 songs..
    Appreciate help!

    Hmm, after you uploaded the music that wasn't already matched in iTunes did you then delete the tracks from your library or are they still there? If you iPod is set for automatic sync and you removed the tracks from the library then naturally they would have been removed from the device. The iPod classic doesn't come with wi-fi so you can't download content directly to it as you can with an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch, but even with those devices it is not necessarily a good idea to remove your own local copy of the content. iCloud isn't really an alternative to a local library, rather an adjunct to it, letting you access stuff on your library on demand from a device that can't hold it all at one time.
    If I've misunderstood then if may be that you simply need to restore the device to repopulate it.

    I am new with IPad mini, and have issues with music on device:
    A) I wonder whether I can transfer music from PC to device (A 1432) and
    B) I have problems 'approaching' iTunes Store app because it shows on screen interface for iTunes U app (which I downloaded previously and deleted it in the meantime because of this problems)...cannot shut it down because there is no way to exit this mode.
    hope someone will help so I can finally have some music on device.
    Thanks!

    Does anyone have any idea what to do in order to have approach to ITunes Store.

  • A friend of mine put music on my ipod from her itunes account. now i cant put my music up there from my itunes account without erasing the other songs. how can i fix this ?

    A friend of mine put music on my ipod from her itunes account. Now i can't put my music up there from my itunes account without erasing the other songs. How can i fix this?

    "A friend of mine put music on my ipod from her itunes account. "
    This is not legal.  You have no legal right to that music.
    " Now i can't put my music up there from my itunes account without erasing the other songs. "
    That is correct.
    How can i fix this?
    There is nothing to fix.  The ipod is designed to stop you from being able to steal music as you are doing.
    Erase the music you got illegally and sync your own music to your own ipod.

  • HT204406 I bought iTunes Match enabled it on my ipad now the 1800 songs in my library are gone and all I have is the music my daughter purchased from itunes how can I get them back. for her ipad.

    I have ipad 3 & daughter new ipad mini with RD. She has nano and I have classic. Her nano syncs to her own laptop and mine to my desktop. I bought iTunes Match and authorised both iPads and both iPods. I have now enabled iTunes Match in my ipad and was warned it would replace my library. I pressed "enable" and now the 1800 songs in my library are gone and all I've got is the music my daughter bought from iTunes. What have I done wrong and how can I get my songs back. When I bought iTunes Match I got 1 e-mail confirming subscription and another providing receipt but nothing else no links etc. any assistance would be appreciated.

    You can only upload music from your computer's iTunes, you can't do it from an iOS device - when you subscribe to iTunes Match on your computer it should have scanned your music library on it and matched or uploaded any non-iTunes purchased music to it.
    Do you have copies of those tracks anywhere e.g. on an iOS device or on your backup of your downloads/library ? If they are iTunes purchases then they should be in the cloud. If they were copied from CDs or bought from other sources then if they are only on an iOS device (i.e. you don't have them on a backup) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • Hi, so I pushed autofill because I thought that it would put music on my phone from a different iTunes library but it didn't work, and now the songs show up grey in my music on my phone and they won't play, but they are still there. What can I do?

    Go back to iTunes, select the Music tab, uncheck the 'sync music; button, then hit apply.

  • I don't have a Mac or PC so how do I put music on my iPod from my iPad?

    I received an iPad Air for Christmas and just recently bought an iPod nano (the newest generation) under the impression that I can use my iPad to sync music onto my iPod. I am struggling to figure out how to do this. Everything I have read has said that you need a Mac or PC to sync music onto an ipad---I do not have a computer. Only an iPad. Feeling very frustrated that I just bought the iPod for this purpose and now there seems to be no way of even using it. Please help me figure this out.
    Thanks!

    I'm sorry, but I don't know where you got that impression, because it is incorrect. You have to sync music to a Nano from iTunes on a computer. You cannot sync the music from the iPad to the Nano or to any other iPod device.
    The Nano is useless to you without a computer. See if you can return it. Apple has a 14 day no questions asked refund policy - if you bought it from them.

  • Video Podcasts Not Syncing From my iPad Mini to iTunes for Windows

    Hello all.  I have the iPad Mini, and recently have been downloading my Podcasts there.
    It occurred to me that in case something happens to my iPad, I should have my Podcasts backed up to my computer.  So, i downloaded iTunes for Windows on my computer.  I plugged my iPad Mini into my computer and synced it, so that my Podcasts would sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library.
    I noticed that all of my podcasts did sync, except for the 3 video podcasts I have.  None of the video podcasts synced.
    Anyone know how I can get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library?
    Thank you in advance!

    Just wanted to kick my question back up. to see if anyone had any idea how to get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to iTunes on my computer.
    Audio podcasts seem to be syncing fine.  Just the video podcasts are not.
    Thanks.

  • It's not letting me put music on my phone from my iTunes? What do I do?

    It's not letting me put music on my phone from my iTunes? What do I do?

    Be sure both the iPhone and iTunes are in fact yours.
    They should both be using the same Apple ID and password, and be transferring music that belongs to you (belongs to that Apple ID, and not synced to some other computer).

  • Why is Music I have not purchased and do not want loading to my iPad mini from iCloud?

    Why is Music that I have never purchased and have no knowledge of, appearing on my iPad mini in iTunes and marked as  being in iCloud?

    Thanks for reply. My Apple ID is long established and not shared by anyone - not with my knowledge anyway!
