I cannot sync music to my iPad

I just got an iPad 2. I am trying to sync my iTunes music library to my iPad. I was able to sync my apps, mail acounts, pocasts, and books but not any music. I have tried repeatedly with no success.  I select sync music then selected playlist, albums, artists, and so forth. Nothing happens.  Why?
Jere

I could not get music and videos from the computer to the iPad and vise versa although the computer apparently was backing up the iPad. After playing around with them a bit I finally got the two devices to share media again. i still get the message that the iPad and the computer cannot sync - now that i got them to start sharing again i'm not sure how them "not syncing" is going to affect me as yet.
Thanks for the effort

  • Cannot sync music to Phone 4.

    Cannot sync music to Phone 4. This is second hand phone given to me recently, but all settings were erased and set up from scratch. I am new to iTunes; I have had no problems syncing to iPad or iPod but cannot copy music to iPhone, presume this should be possible? All music is imported from CD's at present.
    I can see iPhone within iTunes on my PC, and when I select music to sync the status bar at bottom of summary page goes partly blue.  I am trying to sync using cable, have turned off Home Sharing and Wifi sync as advised on other posts.  When I click sync, various stages are run through very quickly at top of screen, but nothing actually copies over. When I did same thing on iPad, I could see each track being copied.
    Getting very frustrated with iTunes, surely it should not be so difficult just to copy over some music?
    Would appreciate any help.

    He wants to keep his friends apps, videos and music while adding his own.
    iPhones sync to 1 computer under 1 iTunes account.
    All apps, video and music are tied to an account.
    To use your iTunes stuff or purchase stuff in the future, you will have to restore wipe your friends stuff off the phone, associate it with your iTunes id.

    I'm sorry about your loss.
    Are you trying to recover data from this iPad, or to set it up as new (erase everything on it, and simply use the iPad as if it were brand new as your new iPad)?
    If the latter, you can place the iPad into recovery mode as shown here.  You may have to try this several times:

    I am getting this error message after upgrading to iOS5: "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad "ray's iPad" because the apps installed on the iPad could not be determined."
    I wiped it out and restored from backup but I am still getting the same message.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and that fixed it. Here are the specific instructions that I was given.
    ~~~
    Try the following steps:
    1. Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.
    2. You should remove all instances of iTunes and the rest of the components listed below:
    it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes, QuickTime, and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order:
    iTunes
    QuickTime
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Follow the instructions from Apple article listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 to remove all components
    3. Reboot your computer. Next, download iTunes from here:http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ and install from scratch

  • TS1503 when syncing my ipad I get the message 'iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad "..." because the apps installed on the ipad could not be determined'; what does this mean?

    when syncing my ipad I get the message 'iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad "..." because the apps installed on the ipad could not be determined'; what does this mean?

    I'm pretty sure it's a bug in either iOS 6 or iTunes 10.7.  I kept getting it until I quit iTunes and re-ran it again.  I then started sync from the iPad itself.

    You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

  • Error message: itunes cannot sync apps to the iPad because the apps installed on the ipad could not be detected

    I received this message: "itunes cannot sync apps to the iPad because the apps installed on the ipad could not be detected" when trying to sync my ipad via usb with my windows PC - after the iPad applications failed to update when I selected 'Update All' in IOS6.

    Disconnect and restart the computer and reset the iPad:
    Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • ITunes returns Error Message cannot sync apps installed on iPad because the apps installed could not be determined

    Hello,
    I have been trying to fix this problem with no success for awhile. When I try and backup and sync my iPad Air iOS 7.1.1 iTunes keeps returning the error message
    " iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad because the apps installed on the iPad could not be determined"  iTunes is current with all updates and is running on a MacBook Pro 8,3 running OS X 10.9.3.

    Hi RayCanada,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  I'm not sure what steps you have taken so far to troubleshoot this issue, but I have a couple of suggestions for you to try.  The first thing I would suggest is to quit all apps and sign out of the iTunes Store on your iPad, disconnect it from your Macbook Pro, and turn it off.    Then restart your Macbook Pro.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311?viewlocale=en_US
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    Tap Sign Out.
    Turn your iPad Air on, and sign into your iTunes Store account using the same Apple ID you used to purchase the apps.  Connect it to the MacBook Pro using the Apple USB cable that it came with.  Try to sync again with your iTunes library on your Macbook Pro.
    Alternatively, you can download any iTunes Store purchased content using the same Apple ID directly to your iPad.  Here's how:
    Download past purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    Not sure which Apple ID you used to make purchases?  You can review your entire purchase history using your computer:

    I hope this information helps ....

    While syncing, I got this message: "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPad “temp’s iPad” because the apps installed on the iPad could not be determined" What does this mean and what should I do?

    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.

    My iMac cannot sync notes with my iPad or iPhone since the Mavericks update.  I get the error message "This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with my [email protected]  Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem."  Help.  I have version 10.9.3 on the iMac, 7.1.1 on iPhone and iPad.  The iPhone & iPad sync notes fine.  But neither gets the changes I put in the iMac.
    I automatically have an email @iCloud.com when that update occured.  Can anyone help me?
