I could originally sync my iPad 3 to Mac pro but now it does not recognize the device. It does on my MacBook however.

I could originally sync my iPad 3 on my Mac pro via iTunes. Now the computer does not recognize the device and shows as "not charging" on the device screen. It does still charge with the cord and will sync with my Mac book. I have current iTunes software installed and running 10.6.8. Any help would be appriciated.

Nope. iPads can only be synced with one iTunes library, and all content on the iPad would be erased if you tried to sync it with a different one.

My daughter's ipod touch is disabled and says to connect to itunes becasue she forgot her password. she hasnt synced in a long time so I cant even go onto itunes (it does not recognize the device) how do I reset her password?

we have had to reset our computer so any info on there is also erased. my daughter is in tears and I am frustrated. I have tried the basic technical support of resetting (holding the power button and the home key for 10 seconds, etc) nothing is working and we can not connect to itunes.

Here are Apple's instructions for placing the iPod in recovery mode:

I recently connected my new ipad to my itunes, but now itunes will not recognise my ipod classic, and 50gig of music has gone. ipad connects ok but no longer ipod which has been there for two years! help!!!

What happens when the iPod is plugged in? anything? any errors?
Why is 50GB of music gone? All music should exist on the computer. Only a fool would rely on a single device which could easily be lost or stolen to store their content on.

I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. Please help

I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

And what would that be before I or anyone else wastes their time and yours providing options you have already tried without any change?
If you have tried all troubleshooting steps providing by Apple, call AppleCare or make an appointment an an Apple store if there is one nearby. You have no other option.

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.
