I sync my iPad mini 2 with windows laptop.

I originally synced my iPad mini with my brothers laptop which is an Apple MacBook pro. I just bought a windows laptop and I want to sync it. But I have already had to restore my iPad once this year due to error and I don't want to do it again. Is there any other way?

Syncing to another computer that you have not normally synced to is going to remove anything that you have synced to the old computer. You will need to make sure your music is on the new computer, as well as contacts and calendar unless you are syncing them with iCloud.

  • I have trouble to find my photo after I sync my ipad mini with my laptop for the first time. I assume it is stored in iCloud, how to view it?

    Please help! I'm really stressed out about this. I have lost all my recent family holiday photos after returning from overseas. After I sync my ipad mini with my laptop pc for the very first time. all the photos I had in my iPad mini has gone. I assume it was stored in iCloud.  As suggested i should download iCloud Control Pannel to my pc to which I did. After I click "manage storage", it shows I have used up 621.70MB of my total storage 5GB. I tried to click on the BACKUP icon, it displayed (incomplete) next to my ipad. What does it mean by incomplete? Where can I access my photo from icloud? Thank you and looking forward to your reply.

    Hi, Winston Churhill,
    Thank you or taking your time reply this query. Unfortunately I still can't find my picture. My photo stream folder is empty! :(
    But my iclod account says I have 621.7 MB backed up. What are they? How to access this backed up file? What does I meant by INCOMPLETE. Does it mean that the file ha been corrupted during the process? Or ICloud is not compatible to my laptop?
    Thank you.

  • How do I sync my ipad mini with windows 7

    I have a iPad mini that I got today and I need help syncing it with my windows 7 PC when I plug it in iTunes freezes

    Your Windows PC needs the current iTunes.  Do you have it (version 11.0.4)?

  • HT1386 Hi, I have an old powermac G4 laptop running OS X 10.5.8, can I sync my ipad mini with the version of itunes running on it?

    Hi
    I have a powerbook G4 laptop, A1095 running OSX 10.5.8
    Can I sync my ipad mini with the itunes I have installed?
    Regards
    Gavin

    Yes ... with regard to syncing. Actually, you need to be running OS X 10.6.8. This is copied from the iPad Mini tech specs website.
    Apple ID (required for some features)
    Internet access6
    Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
    Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later
    Download iTunes at www.itunes.com/download

    Hi cdag144,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing when you try to sync. If you are unable to sync because your iPad isn't showing up in iTunes at all (you mention it showing up as a device on the computer), you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • Photos orientation not ok after syncing my ipad mini with my pc?

    When i sync my ipad mini with my pc to add photos, the photos dont keep the orientation?
    And when i modify and save them on my ipad, i have the same picture twice but with 2 orientation?
    Exemple: Photo 1 is in my PC and photo 2 is in my ipad mini after the syncing.
    What can i do to have only one photo off each and in the right orientation?
    Thank you!

    Thanks for the information as this helped immensely. I was having the same problem having recently purchased the iPad and using Windows Vista. Made a series of edits in "Microsoft Office Picture Manager" to correct the view on my PC by rotating and then loaded into the iPad and they were showing incorrectly. Found a quick solution was to do all the rotations whilst in file manager (i.e. viewing the icons) and not picture editor. Seems this enables them to display correctly on the PC and also go into the iPad correctly. If you actually rotate the pictures whilst editing it doesn't work.

  • I need to sync an ipad mini with a regular ipad. If I were to open them plug them both into the same computers itunes, would they have identical information?

    I need to sync an ipad mini with a regular ipad. If I were to open them plug them both into the same computers itunes, would they have identical information?

    You will need to choose one as the "master", back that unit up to iTunes, then restore the other unit from that backup and then sync all the same content and apps. That's the only way they'd have identical data. If you need to keep then synched on an ongoing basis, you'll probably need to use some sort of cloud-based service such as iCloud or Dropbox to hold the data, which of course will require that your apps support that service for storage of documents.
    Regards.

  • HT1386 Having trouble syncing my ipad mini with iTunes

    When I sync my ipad mini with my iTunes it appears the process is happening, the line indicating music is present on the ipad appears. But when the syncing is done the line disappears and no music has been loaded to the ipad.

    Are you signed into the correct iD on the iPad in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID?
    Do you have Sync only  checked songs and videos selected in the Summary Tab of iTunes? If you do, are you selecting the music to sync? If you don't have that checked, have you selected the music to sync? Are you trying to sync the entire library?

    iOS device backups are stored in your iTunes library.
    Move your iTunes library to an external drive.

    You do realize that the message means that you need to download iTunes on the computer and not on the iPad - correct? I just want to make sure that you know that.
    If that is the problem, go here to download iTunes.

  • How can I sync my iPad mini with itunes version 10.6.5? My mac says it is up to date.

    My iPad mini won't sync up to my iMac as it says I need a different version of iTunes.  when I try to update iTunes it says I am already up to date.  Any suggestions?

    You need iTunes version 10.7 or later. Your OS, however, Mac OS X 10.5.8, does not support a newer version of iTunes. You need to upgrade your computer's OS. If your Mac has an Intel processor, buy Snow Leopard: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is compatible with the latest version of iTunes.

  • HT2729 syncing new ipad mini with itunes

    trying to sync my new ipad mini to my older macbook with itunes 10.6 it says i need 10.7.
    When I check for upgrades it says mine is the latest version. Help?

    The situation you are probably in is that your Mini wants a newer operating system and iTunes than your older computer can handle. It is quite common for mac apps and programs to have a limited 'backwards compatibility' where new programs and devices will cease compatibility with older devices and programs and operating systems.
    Your choice will probably be to upgrade your computer or use only iCloud to sync your mini.

    I see all movies and music available to be sync but when I click on the sync button, the process starts, the bottom bar shows an increase in consumed space then nothing happens and the bar goes back as nothing was added.
    Please help..
    I have tried everything but nothing works.

    Thanks Sk8dreams,
    ....but I wish I could have lol like u right now..
    If I could get a free iPad everything I'd already kept my iPad connected and restarted iTunes, I think I'd have had a truckload of them by now...
    I've done all of these..
    Like I said earlier I syncd everything to my iphone5 successfully...
    I got my PDF ebooks to this same iPad... Films & Music do not seem to be getting through..
    I'm sure someone out there knows what to do..
