I've had my ipad for 6 months and still cannot get my iTunes music on it. How do I do that???

I've had my iPad mini for 6 months and still cannot get my iTunes music on it. What am I doing wrong??

I have tried everything. When I open my iTunes, the iPad icon comes up on the top right and shows the circling arrows and at the top is has iTunes Match, sending info to Apple. When I click the iPad icon, it states my iOS 6.1.3. and is up-to-date. I have a 32 GB Wi-Fi iPad. It says I have 28.34 capacity left. I have it set to automatically back up on iCloud (I have 15 GB of space in iCloud). At the bottom it says I have 447 photos and 42 apps. However, I can count that I only have 31 pictures that I see in my Photos.
I probably have the almost 500 photos on my phone, though. And I'm able to get some music to my phone**.
Under Options I have checked: Open iTunes when this iPad is connected, Sync this iPad over Wi-Fi, and sync only checked songs.
Today I tried dragging a number of playlists to the iPad icon. It didn't go to my iPad; **however, now it's on my phone.
When I open the music app in my iPad, the cloud icon shows up and the bar under it fills up, it says there's no music.
Appreciate any help...they tell me I am not eligible for tech support via chat.

HT201263 I have downloaded ipod software for recovery and still cannot get anything to happen

I have gotten my Ipod to go to the Itunes connect screen for recovery. However when I donwloaded the update it did not work. So my Ipod is still not being recognized by my computer.

If you cannot operate the device nor get it to connect to iTunes, make sure the cable is not the problem, try another cable.
If not, then try this:
1. Connect the device to iTunes
2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.

What can I do to get it to work again as more than an overpriced paperweight?

Hello,
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), see if you can set a good resolution.

HT4259 I have an 802.11n base and extender and still cannot get a good signal 80-90 ft away . Why?

I have an 802.11n base and extender and still cannot get a good signal 80-90 ft away . Why?

Hardwire is always recommended because there is virtually no signal loss in a wire....at least up to 300 feet or so.
Another advantage of using Ethernet cable...if you can...is that you can locate the AirPort Express where it is most needed.
If it extends using wireless only, it pretty much needs to be located about half the distance from the main router and the general area that needs more coverage.
I like to use WiFi Explorer since it displays SNR (Signal to Noise) readings, which are the best way to evaluate signal quality.
Mac App Store - WiFi Explorer
If the signal is varying constantly, something is causing it to do so....assuming that the AirPorts are functioning correctly.
Cordless phones are a huge problem for wireless networks. You want to try to figure out if the phones are causing a problem as a first troubleshooting step.
That is why I suggested that you turn off the phones for an hour or two and watch the network to see how it behaves. If the signal stops fluctuating....that is a good clue that the phones are interfering with the wireless signal.

The lock button on my iPhone5 has also started acting up. Extremely annoying. I have to get it replaced, but I've dropped my phone once and there is a scratch on the top left corner of the phone, so I'm not sure what the warranty says about this situation.

Transferred all files to new computer. My iTunes does not find my music. The "scan for media" button doesn't work and I cannot get the iTunes to see the music that is clearly on my new computer.

I am stumpted. I transferred and have all my music in my iTunes folder on my new computer and I also have it on an external hard drive. I've added the new computer to the list of authorized computers and followed the "advanced" preferences options to select my iTunes folder and still nothing happens. No music, no playlists, NOTHING. The I am completely shocked that none, NONE of the apple support pages can help me. I have Windows 8.1. Please can someone help me. I cannot believe how hard this is.

I cannot open videos that are sent in adobe flash player. i have loaded Photon, and just bought Falcon Player, and still cannot open any video sent in adobe flash. I understood that I was to download one of these as a substitute and could play my, video

Can someone help me to open videos that come in adobe flash player. It says' my ipad 2 does not accept that. i was told to down load either photon or Falcon player. i have done both and still cannot open my videos. i am 74 years old, electronically challenged, and NEED SOMEONES HELP, PLEASE!! Thanks so very much to whomever has the time to he me.

Either get a screen cleaning cloth, or carefully us a slightly damp lint-free cloth and dry off with a dry link-=free cloth.
As to Flash Videos: I am in a similar same boat. I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, although all other flash videos (YouTube and FaceBook for example) are fine.
For reasons that passeth all understanding, they work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have anabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
But there is a workaround!
Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
I am using Flash 10.1.102.64 in TenFourFox and it works just fine.

TS2972 I have the ID between computer and apple TV the same, I've changed the pasword and still cannot get the two to share. They stopped sharing a week ago. Best to simply unplug and start again?

Does anybody know why my home sharing would stop and I cannot get the Apple TV to recognise the ID or possibly the password? Nothing was changed and it stopped. Now I've done everything including new apple ID and password but it still wont connect.

Either the most recent updates to iTunes or the Apple TV have changed connectivity to one another. Review the following link as the configuration presented may not be the same as yours but the concepts are the same. Once completed, you will have connectivity back.

PROBLEM FOR MONTHS AND STILL NO RESOLUTION

I have had a problem with by BT Broadband service since it was installed over a year ago. I have spent so much time on the phone to the technical support service that I feel I know them better than I know my own family. I'm even considering learning Pashtu or Dari to allow my conversations with the BT tecnical support team to progress quicker.
So what is wrong, simple my service doesn't work it drops in and out and having become so frustrated with it i asked to cancel my contract and was told that I would have to buy myself out of the remaining 6 months of my contract. Despite telling BT that the problem was not at my property (Ive been a communications engineer for 32 years) I agreed to take a day off of work so the engineer could visit. he was in my property for 4 mins and 54 seconds before he said "your right mate theres nothing wrong here!" he then went off to check the local DP and then the server. I was then eventually told that the problem was caused due to the distance that my property was from the DP and the server, it was too long for the copper cable; something that BT knew when they allowed me to take out the contract. After months of discussion I was then told that they were not able to fix my problem and that I could now leave my contract without any financial penalty, I declined and said that I would like BT to fix the problem. They have now said that they cannot fix the problem so I have asked for a deadlock letter (something that I have been asking for since Jan 15) so that I can take the matter to the ombudsman, I also asked for transcripts of all of my calls, both of which I haven't received despite numerous requests and an agreement to pay for the transcripts to be produced. I was promised on 28 March that my case was now being dealt with by a specialist team who would definately be in touch with me by 04 April, yet nobody called me back. My normal routine now is to (a) have no reliable broadband (b) Speak to BT Technical Services on a daily basis only to be told "please give us another week to sort this out". I have this time spoken to a customer service adviser in the UK who told me that the only way to proceed was for me to cancel my contract and then it could be investigated to see if I was entitled to any refund. I then asked for BT to write or email me stating that (a) if I cancelled my contract that I wouldn't be liable for any financial penalty and (b) that I would be entitled to some sort of compensation. I was told that this was not possible as I had not registered any complaint!
So tomorrow I will place the matter into the hands of a solicitor and aim to tak legal action against BT for breach of contract. I cannot go the the ombudsman as BT refuse to give me the dead lock letter and the transcripts of my numerous calls.
Well done BT a superb service, I can't see why anyone would take out a contract with BT. At my last address I had my broadband with Virgin and for 3 years I didn't have any issues!

As to why when given the option of cancelling I chose not to, I believe that BT can solve the problem but choose not to as it is financially prohibitive to them to do so. Therefore it is easier and cheaper for them to offer a cancelation without charges, hoping the customer will just leave and stop complaining. What I want BT to do is to honour their contractural commitment and provide me with the service stated in my contract, the service I have paid for and continue to pay for. BT are quite happy to take your money but dont want to invest in their infrastructure and provide a decent service, especially for customers in rural areas. Perhaps they should consider this before they enter into a contract, afterall it is a two way agreement.
I now feel so frustrated with BT's inefficiency that I want to take my case to the ombudsman but BT refuse to provide a deadlock letter and transcripts of calls, prefering to employ some sort of delaying tactic.
I wish I'd nver entered into a contract with BT, my internet still doesnt work and despite admissions by BT staff that it is their problem I'm expected to just put it down to experience and walk away!
The manager that I spoke to yesterday assured me that I would be compensated for loss of service but would not commit to putting that into a letter or email, why? If that is what is going to happen then be willing to put it in writing. A shocking customer service experience and judgng by the other posts on these forums I'm not alone.

Ipad apps disappeared and I cannot get them back

Two days ago I came home and most of the apps on my ipad had disappeared. I tried to Restore my ipad and download the apps from my computer that I have had they backed up on and it keeps saying the computer is not authorized and no matter how many times I have authorized it, it continues to say I am not authorixed eventhough I have used the same password to download some new apps. This is stressing me out as If I have to start from scratch this will be expensive. Up until now it would ask me to authorize my computer each time I wanted to sync it with theipad but it has always worked. Help someone.

OK, I have just found out that I can transfer some songs onto my phone without a problem. However, when even ONE song fails to transfer, all the previous songs I've successfully transferred also fail for seemingly no reason, making me delete them and re-start. This is seriously annoying me.
Is there anyone out there that can help me?

2 iPad's Down and Still Cannot install Anything???

I have just returned my new iPad to the shop and picked up another after I could not even install any software to the iPad from the PC, iTunes works OK, the computer has been authorised and then de-authorised, and then re-authorised, as already advised on this forum, but when I try to install anything (even a FREE App called iBooks) I get the following message:
The application "iBooks" was not installed on the iPad "James's iPad" because an unknown error ocurred (0xE8008001).
This is getting annoying, I have basically paid for something that I cannot even read a book on??? and yet on the TV adverts they seem to this or more, I have tried free games and free apps, I was going to purchase something but in case I cannot get this working I do not want to waist my money...
Please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

As suggested in another dicussion I have tried unplugging the USB and holding the home button on the iPad for 10 seconds and then replugging the iPad into the computer but my computer says itunes could not connect to the iPad because it is locked with a passcode.

3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
