I have a PC desktop and an iPad. I have a large library of PDF documents on my desktop that I would like to sync with my iPad. I would like to be able to download new PDF's and make edits on existing PDF's on either device and have those edits and new PDFs synced to the other device. I would also like to have my library available on the iPad even if there isn't a wifi connection (i.e., not on the cloud). Is that possible. I don't mind if I have to purchase a separate product or a product upgrade ect.
You can't use an external hard drive like you would with a computer.
You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
When you first connect the USB flash drive, you will only see thumbnails of the pics on the iPad; you have to import the pic file to see the full size. With your large library of pics, you will have to do this repeateably and then delete pics so you don't exceed your memory capacity.
Cheers, Tom

I Connected my ipad air2 to a different laptop and it synced. i lost all my photos, they,re asking for the apple id of the person who pwned the laptop. How can i retrieve my icloud account and how can i retrieve everything
Have you tried syncing with your own computer. The one you used to sync the photos to your iPad in the first place?
Do you have a backup of your iPad on your own computer? Or in iCloud?
If your iPad is stuck to the Apple ID and password used by the different laptop have the owner of that laptop remove your device from their iCloud account. They can go to iCloud.com on their laptop, enter their Apple ID and password and then remove your iPad from their account.
Once you sign into your own Apple ID and password and then sign in to your iCloud account, many of your lost items should come back. Specifically these include your Contacts andCalendar entries. -
MY Ipad refuse to SYNK with Itunes I get messege "76 App can not synk"? help
MY IOS is 3.2A lot of apps now require iOS 4+ in order to work - if you only have version 3.2 and the apps that you want to sync require 4+ then they won't sync (you can check an app's requirements on the left-hand side of its description in the App Store). You either need to update your iPad to the current version of iOS (which can be done via the Check for Updates button on the devices summary tab in iTunes), or you need to find apps that only require iOS 3

I am trying to transfer my purchases from my iPhone 5 to my new Mac computer. I get the message stating that it can only be synced with one computer at a time. I have tried the 2 other ways and I get no options to transfer my purchases. Help?
If you see Devices in the big list on the left-hand side of iTunes, it should show the name of your iPhone right below it. You can right-click (or hold ctrl and left click) on the name of the iPhone there, and choose "transfer purchases from iPhone".
If you're on iTunes 11, you won't see the big list of the left until you go to the View menu at the very top (where you see iTunes/File/Edit/View/etc) and choose Show Sidebar. Then do the same thing: right-click or ctrl and left-click on the iPhone's name below Devices and "transfer purchases from iPhone".
It'll ask you to authorize the computer for your Apple ID if you haven't yet; to do that, you just type your Apple ID and password in when it asks. If it says you are not authorized but doesn't automatically give you an option to do so, then you can go to the Store menu at the very top and choose "authorize this computer". -
I just bought a Iphone 5 -- my Iphone 4 and my ipad used to automatically sinc calendars via the Icloud whenever I entered anything on either device -- I can not get the new phone to do this.I have check the settings on both devices and they seem to be t
There are only two things that you must do to connect a device to calendars:
1) In settings>icloud, you must log in, WITH THE CORRECT ID/PASSWORD, and
2) Turn on calendars on the same page.
You said that the iphone 4 and ipad **used** to automatically sync. Do they no long sync? -
I have a new ipad mini and I want to sync with my ipad, but I don't want to sync photos or music as it takes up all my memory. How can I do this?
I'm not understanding what you're wanting. You don't sync ipad to iPad. You can sync both devices to the same iTunes account or same computer.
And you can choose the content on each device. I have an iPod and iPad and maintain separate content on each one. -
My wife has a new Ipad and Iphone with icloud. We also have a Imac that has not been upgraded yet that is somehow syncing with her ipad and screwing up the apps. Is there anyway to prevent this. Maybe it is thru mobilme?
I think iCloud isn't coming until this fall and not until iOS 5 is publicly available. Right now there is confusion because all this stuff is still in beta and things are under NDA and may still change.
I'd just set the 3GS up the same as currently. When iOS 5 is available in the fall (and I don't think Apple has specified beyond "fall"), before you update, there should be any number of guides to setting things up and how it will all work. http://macworld.com is a good place to look for such information. -
I recently got a new computer and got rid of my old one. I am trying to put the music from my ipod touch onto my new computer but keep getting a message saying that my ipod is already synced with a library and cannot be synced with more than one. How do I access that library on my new computer and if I can't are their other ways for me to put the music on my ipod into my new computer?
Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

I ripped a new CD to iTunes and backed up to the cloud. The songs are already on my iPhone 4S, but I can't get them on my iPad. I already connected the iPad to my laptop and selected "Sync with the iPad over Wi-Fi". On the iPad I forced a Sync. Help!

My computer crashed and cannot be recovered. I had my Itunes on that computer that synced with my ipad. How do I get my music off of my ipad to my new computer?
You should have a backup but if not you will need to transfer the contents before you sync or it will be erased.
Transfer music purchased from iTunes

For other music you will require a 3rd party program

I have a new ipad min2. I have the verizon activated. but cannot find phone number. I checked view account. How do I get my phone number associated with my Ipad?
Your ipad has a cellular access number in settings under cellular data.
it is not a phone, and that number can't be used to phone calls. -
how do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.
Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

Since I upgraded to iOs 5.1.1 and iTunes 10.6.1.7 my phone will no longer sync with outlook or iCloud. I have no trouble with my iPad. I get a message "iPhone could not be synced because the sync session failed to start. Any suggestions?
BWIs your iPad recognized by iTunes when connected to your computer via USB?
If so, does Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi remain selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes? -
I have Outlook installed on my MacBook Air and it doesn't sync with my Ipad mini or my iPhone 4S.
I have Outlook installed on my MacBook Air and it doesn't sync with my iPad mini or iPhone 4S when I delete a message. However, when I delete a message on either the iPad mini or iPhone, the message deletes on the MacBook Air.
Ok, I feel stupid. I just had to adjust the resolution and it's fine. Sorry to bother everyone!

I have a Google calendar that is syncing with my iPad and on my MacBook Air. However, the calendar items are not showing up when I access iCloud via the Internet. Any suggestions?
On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.
