HT4059 Not everything in iBook (iPad) will sync to iTouch , why?

Not everything in iBook (iPad) will sync to iTouch , why?

Do you have any playlists? If so, I think for some reason the playlists may be causing the issue.
I had exactly the same issue (though for my iPhone) however I managed to get around it without blasting my iTunes music folder.
This is what I found:
Initially in iTunes, I had "Entire music library" selected - I had songs that were missing.
First, I unselected "Sync Music" and then did a sync to clear out my iPhone.
After the sync to clear everything out, I went back to iTunes and reselected "Sync Music".
I then selected the "Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres".
I then only selected everything in my "Genres". Reason being is that it was the shortest list. I also made sure all my songs were associated with a genre.
I also made sure none of my playlists were selected.
After the sync, I had all my music!
I hope that helps you and anyone else who had a similar problem.

    Close the Notes app on the Task Bar and re-launch.
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar
    2. Hold the Notes app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app

  • A virus was on my computer and we had to do a reinstall of Windows XP. Everything was lost, if I sync my Itouch 4th Gen with computer will I loose everything? Since it will recognize the computer as a new computer. All help is much appreciated.

    Last night my boyfriend did a reinstall of our old desktop which runs Windows XP. He did not do a back up of ITunes or the libary just whiped everything. I am afraid that if I Sync my ITouch I will lose all of my music and movies etc... since the ITouch wont recognize the computer. I have backed everything up onto the ICloud but my sysytem is so old I cant run IClooud on my desktop.I have already downloaded the newest version of ITunes onto the desktop and "Authorized" the new computer and logged into the ITunes account. But need more info before I want to plug my ITouch into it. I did this once before and lost all of my movies and music so this time I am asking before jumping in with both feet.
    thank you so much for your help and time! Much Appreciated

    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

  • Ipad will sync hotmail just once

    I need to delete my hotmail account, turn off/on the ipad, then re add the hotmail account for it to sync.  It will bring in all new emails.  If I want more, I need to delete/add again. This problem started sept 14th.    The account is syncing just fine to my android phone.
    I can send email from the ipad.
    Any ideas?

    The quickest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes.

  • After I import a CD iinto itunes,some of the tracks are not in the right order and not all of the tracks will sync to my ipod

    I'm trying to import a cd into itunes but the cd tracks are out of order and when I sync the tracks to my ipod touch 4 not all tracks get synced.Can anyone please help me?thank you .

    Hello Melissa,
    Definitely a little odd that some episodes will sync and others will not, especially since they are from the same season.  How the videos were encoded may be slightly difference, so much that your iPod no longer friends them compatible. 
    I would have a look at this article. 
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1497
    Since these are videos that were purchased from the iTunes store, you won't be able to convert them in any way, so you may be out of luck.

    We are having same problems...I updated both our phones yesterday and can't get any of our ringtones to sync back on the phones..Now this morning I have played around a bit with mine and somehow got two of my ringtones back on but cant get the others on.  This is confusing, we update our phones like they tell ya and then lose things we have paid for.

  • Not all of my photos from my iPad will sync with my macbook pro retina. Any advise would be appreciated as I am a Mac beginner.

    Not all of my photos on my ipad sync across to my macbook pro retina.Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Thank you - I have done this now but resetting and restoring from another device didn't really help. However, syncing via iTunes was a bit more successful as it occurred to me that many of my contacts are in MS Outlook on my PC and I was able to copy them over.  There are still some contacts missing and I am continuing to try and figure out where they originate from to try and get them to show up.

  • Why is my iPhone 4 not syncing with my outlook calendar, but my iPad will sync it successfully?

    I recently downloaded iOS 5.0.1 and for some reason my outlook calendar no longer shows up in my phone but will show up on my iPad. Is this an iCloud issue? I haven't changed any of the settings recently so am unsure why it now doesn't work.

  • Help! My new ipad will sync everything, but my music!

    I just got a new ipad and I connected it to my PC and opened iTunes, it synced all my apps, my pictures, but it won't sync my music. I have tried clicking and unclicking. Adding one album or song at a time, but it won't work. My computer shows the music in gray with a dotted circle by it, but it won't begin to upload it to my ipad, and when I click on my music on my ipad, it shows an empty folder. Please help me, I'm so frustrated.

  • My iPad will sync everything but purchased movies and tv shows.

    The message I get is that my computer is not authorised but when I go into store - authorize etc it tells me that my computer is already authorised.
    Am I missing something? This has never been a problem before.

    Oh alright -- I manage to resolve my own stupidity quite abruptly, actually.
    Shortly after posting this, I annoying took another gander at iTunes Store settings. To my own idiocy, I must have unchecked "Show iTunes purchases in the cloud" at some point. In my defense, though, the availability of songs in iCloud threw me off quite a lot.
    Ha ha -- anyways, if anyone else is having the same problem, check there.

  • TS4006 I did everything but my ipad will not appear in my devices, nor will the app find it

    When thru that checklist and icloud, bluetooth, time, and internet are all on

    It is easy to control which photo app opens with your iOS device if you have a Mac. Connect your iOS device to the Mac with the USB cable, open the free Apple app Image Capture, highlight your iOS device in the list on the left and in the bottom left corner select the behavior that you wish to have happen when the iOS device is connected to your Mac. You can also do as I do and configure it so that no photo app opens.
