I want to take an iPad 3 on a 2-month trip. Is there any way to back up while I'm away from my home computer?

Your own movies are backed up in the camera roll wich is backed up to iCloud. You should be able to restore the movies if something were to happen to them if you use iCloud for your backups. You would have to purchase more storage from iCloud, but the videos will be backed up
You get 5GB of free iCloud storage for:
Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
App data
Home screen and app organization
Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
Ringtones

I purchased an album from the itunes store on my ipad2 thinking i could retrieve it from my windows pc. I have turned on home sharing and can see my pc library from the ipad but not vice-versa. Is there any way to transfer the album from my ipad library?

I purchased an album from the itunes store on my Ipad2 thinking i could access it from my windows laptop where I sync my ipod. I turned on Home Sharing and can see my laptop libraries from my ipad but not vice versa. Is there any way to fix this so I can transfer the album to the itunes on my laptop?

Yes I tried that. I finally turned off all home sharing settings, shut down my desktop and found them in my account settings in the store on the cloud. So at that point I just had it download everything. But I suspect that with the ipad somehow being on, the store was saying I had already received them? Regardless, my trip today whilst running errands, I was rocking out to vintage Police music! Thank you so much for responding.

Honestly, I don't think that they have any other way of accessing anything on the iPad than any other user has. The Apple Store genius will just put the device through the standard troubleshooting steps - in your case probably try to restore the device to factory settings and if that doesn't work, then they will make some sort of offer for a replacement assuming that your iPad is still under warranty.
If I'm not mistaken they will probably erase the device in order to try to "fix" it. That's what restoring to factory settings does. I assumed that you were concerned about losing data - but if you are concerned that they are going to see something that you don't want them to see or access, I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen.

Is there any way to back up my Macbook Pro without using the heap of crap that is Time Machine? It is telling me it will take 3 days to back up 100Gb. I am in my 60s and I am worried that I might not live that long

If you aren't going to live that long maybe you should give up with computers and start enjoying the few remaining hours.

My ipad was lost or stollen. Is there any way to located it?

My IPad was lost or stollen. Is ther any way to track it?

Only if you enabled Find My iPad - and he thief hasn't restored to original settings.

Is there any way to email photos without having to use the themes? I just want to send them from my email the way you used to be able to without all this "new and improved" nonsense.

In the old iPhoto, if I wanted to email pictures, I would select the ones I wanted, have them sent as "smaller" to make them easier to process, and iPhoto would open my mail and I could type the names and I wanted and off they'd go. And, I'd have a copy saved in my "sent" folder.
Now, you have to deal with these ridiculous themes and in order to get a copy of your sent, you have to blind cc yourself. This is definitely not an improvement in my mind.
So I ask, is there any way around this or am I stuck? I really like iPhoto, but this is enough to send my back to Picasa.

Never mind gang. I started seaching through some other support questions, and actually stumbled across the solution to my problem.
Thanks to "John".

I purchased an IPad HD and downloaded Microsoft Office. Then I returned the IPad and purchased a Nexus 10. Is there any way to dowload the Microsoft Office App to my Nexus 10 without paying again?

No.
The iPad is a superior product - why go to a Nexus?

Recently my ipad and iphone 5S were stolen - is there any way to track them if İ had not yet installed find my iphone?

My ipad Air and ıiphone 5S were recentşy stolen from my apartment. They are relaticely new and I had not had a chance to install the Find my iphone app. HOwever it is in my cloud from my last iphone. İs there any way to track these two devices? İs there a standard GPS locator on the newer models?
Thank you for your time!

If you did not activate Find my iPhone when you set up the iPad/iPhone, there is no way of tracking them. Having installed the Find my Phone app is not necessary and it is irrelevant as that app is for tracking other lost iDevices.
Log in to your iCloud account via the iCloud website. Do you see the stolen devices? Do the show up on the device list? If so, the Find my Phone is active and you will be able to track them if they connect to the internet. If not, they are gone.

No way to connect them.

Is there any way to back up a preconfigured iPad and deploy to new iPads using Configurator??

To clarify, we have about 100 ipads deployed in our district and lots more on the way. We had just used iTunes in the past to backup one master device with the apps and restored on the remaining sets of iPads. Obviously we wanted a simpler way to manage this as we are getting a lot more iPads coming in for use in the different schools. We got a MDM solution (Casper) and started using Configurator.
We are running the latest of Configurator (1.4.2) and IOS (7.0.4).
From what I have read (and a lot at that) I know that there are numerous issues with this setup (hopefully addressed very soon)
Here is my question:
Is it possible to take an already deployed device, loaded with apps (paid and free), back it up in Configurator, and deploy it to other iPads and still get all the apps to come down along with the restore?
Apparently this was possible in the past, I am just wondering if I am missing something. Any help or suggestions on how you are doing it would be very helpful
Oh, and to clarify, we are using VPP for the apps, just not managing them any where at this time, haven't decided the best tool for that, maybe casper maybe configurator, but we are compliant, only using the same quantity of apps that we have purchased.
Thanks
Edit: spelling error

I've heard if you contact your apple rep, Apple may restore your vpp codes so you can move to an MDM.

We have 10 iPads in a library setting. Is there a way to sync them so they all have the same apps, settings, etc.

I sold my iPad and put it in the mail and it seems to be stolen, I did a factory reset of the iPad to clear my data. Is there any way to retrieve it?

I sold my iPad on eBay. I mailed the item and the buyer claims to not have it. I did a factory reset before sending and it is not coming up in my cloud. Is there another way to retrieve it?

If it was restored as new then it no longer can be tracked.

I have 2 computers, an Iphone 3gs and an IPad, is there any way to sync all devices so they are the same?

I'm sure I asked this question before. How can one sync their ipad, iphone with more than one computer. I spend 6 mth in Canada and 6 months in the states and don't really want to haul around a desktop computer. Any ideas?

Mmm... Let's say the way that the devices in the US are the way you want them to be. Now you want to sync the device to a computer in Canada. This is the hard or easy part depending how you look at it. Yes, you can sync and make a backup for the devices to the computer in Canada. But you will lose the photos, music, and videos that you have in iTunes in the States. What you will need to do is copy the folder for those items onto a flash drive and place that folder in ITunes Canadian computer. Also you won't be able to use the app store accounts from on country to another.
I'm sure there has to be an easier way to do this and I hope someone will chime in. I'm just thinking off the top of my head on how to do this...

If your location does’t have wifi use a portable router.
