If i want to change to a new ipad, how will my cloud content like photos and videos go to it?

I have a new iPad air, and i want to take the information and content from my old IPad 4 retinal and use it on the new one.  I then want to clear this old iPad and give it to my children to use clear.  I don't know how to get the downloaded information like pictures and videos from the existing cloud into my new Ipad.  i wanted to confirm that these items will still be accessable before i totally reset my old ipad.
thanks,

Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup on your old iPad and check the bottom of the screen under Back Up Now to confirm that you last iCloud backup was completed successfully.  If it was, it will list the time/date of the backup.  Assuming it was, to transfer the photos and other data to your new iPad, restore the backup of your old iPad to your new one.  When you set up the new iPad, you will be given the option to Restore from iCloud Backup.  Select this option and follow the prompts, choosing the backup of your old iPad to restore to the new one.  Then be sure your iPad is connected to wifi and your charger while it is restoring the backup.
If you have already set up your new iPad, go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will allow you to set it up again, where you will get the option to restore your iCloud backup.
As you mentioned, be sure not to erase the old iPad before confirming that the information was successfully transferred to your new one.

  • I want to sync my movies from iTunes onto my iPad, but when i try, it says it needs to "erase and sync" my iPad. If i erase and sync, will it delete my apps, photoa, and videos?

    i want to sync my movies from iTunes onto my iPad, but when i try, it says it needs to "erase and sync" my iPad. This is the first time plugging my ipad into my newwer computer.  If i erase and sync, will it delete my apps, photos, and videos?

    All devices only sync what you select to sync.
    If you do not want all of the music, then simply do not select all of the music to sync.

  • TS3274 How do I remove hundred of photos and videos from my new iPad mini, that were downloaded via my iMac from an earlier iPad2 backup?

    When restoring my old iPad2 (32G) via itunes on my iMac, thousands of pictures/videos from the last 2 years were downloaded along with apps and mail. The new mini is the 16G version and I am eating up memory with all these photos and videos. Selecting the photos in the iPad mini wont let me put them into trash.
    How can I get rid of all these other albums and revert to just storing photos in my camera roll?

    You have to connect the iPad to the Mac and deselect the photos in the Photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync in order to remove the photos.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Select your iPad from Devices in the upper right or in the left sidebar of iTunes, if the sidebar is enabled.
    Click on the Photos tab in the iTunes window on the right.
    Uncheck all of the albums and videos that you want to remove under the Sync Photos from heading.
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.
    If you want to remove all photos, uncheck the "Sync Photos From" heading and then click on Apply. If you can't see the sidebar, go to View>Show sidebar from the iTunes menu at the top.

  • My new MacBook Pro won't recognize contents of photo and MP3 DVDs burned on a Windows PC.

    When I insert a data disc burned on my PC (Windows Vista), my Mac says that the DVD is blank. This is not true. I have tried numerous DVD-Rs which contain mainly photos and MP3s. They all work in my PS3, but not my Mac.
    I have hundreds of gig in both photos and music that I really want to transfer to my new Mac. Any suggenstions?
    Thank you in advance!

    The two most common causes of this behavior are:
    1. The session wasn't closed after burning.
    2. The disk wasn't closed after burning.
    So, try again & properly close the session.

  • Got 2 iPads. One used by my wife and the other by me. How to keep contents like photos and contacts separate? Don't want to mix infos between the 2 devices. Is it possible to make sure that they don't sync together?

    I stripped the old iPad (the one I gave my wife), so now she only has the contacts and photos "suitable" for her. When  Iwoke up this morning my iphone and my new iPad had only the photos and contacts that I left her on her old iPad!! That really *****! I've lost all of my contacts and quite a few photos. Is there a way to restore the old settings here?

    Are sharing an account with your wife?

    A single finger double tap zooms the page/picture/paragraph, not the entire screen.
    This option is different. It zooms the entire screen, not just the page/picture/paragraph.
    This is enabled in Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom.

    Hello alltogether! I use PSE 7 on my PC with windows XP and now want to change to a new Mac with the newest version PSE . Is it possible to move all my albums and tags to that new version? Thank you very much for your kind answers! Candyapple111

    1. Install PSE 11 in windows, upgrade your catalog, then make a full backup  to a removable drive, like a usb drive, using the organizer's back up command. If you buy the boxed version you get discs for both platforms.
    2. Install PSE on the mac.
    3. Restore the backup to the mac. Point the restore to the .tly file in the folder, not the enclosing folder.

    I know the phone is an old model, but it's new to me, and I am new to iPhones in general.

    First sorry for your loss.
    You will need to purchase a program like touch copy http://m.wideanglesoftware.com/index.php#page2  to extract the voicemail and place a copy of it on your computer.

    Hi Yes you can use the same address as on the laptop. iTunes will then show purchases you have made and you will be able to download them.

  • ICloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option.  I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist

    iCloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option.  I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist.  Anyone know what I can do to fix this or why this is happening.?  I had no issue putting in my new Apple ID everywhere else, I could sign out of the old and inactive account and then sign back in using my new and proper one.  However, after the update to 7.3 it did a whole welcome to yr iPad and a set up thing and it went to set up iCloud and had my old Apple ID in grey where I can't change or edit it, it wants the password, when I put in the old password, it say yr Apple ID is incorrect but yet it won't let me change it??????? Anyone???

    Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

    There are not trade ins.
    You could sell you iPhone to someone and buy a new one.
    You could see if your local carriers/stores offer something like this.

    You need to transfer your domain.sites file from your MacBook to your iMac.  This is the file where iWeb stores all info and can be found under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.
    Transfer this file from your MacBook to the same place on your iMac and double click the domain.sites file and iWeb will open it on your iMac and you can update your site from there too.

    I have been updating my PSE since 10. Recently I purchased PSE13 as I didn't see an update for my 12. I was changing to a new laptop as my old laptop had been patched and worked and was showing signs of giving out. It was a Window's 7OS. My new one is a Windows 8 OS so I bought the 13 and downloaded it on the new laptop. Our desktop had died so I downloaded the 13 on the new  desk computer also. Not thinking I downloaded 13 on my old laptop as I hope to get it patched up enough to be a backup for my photography. When I tried to activate it I realized that I had downloaded it too often. I didn't know you could only use it on two computers. Learn something new every day.. Any way I removed it and now my PSE 12 does not seem to be working. Now it could be something that I did or something that is an issue with the laptop. this laptop has all the previous editions on board as I always tried to update, except for the year I got a really good deal on Black Friday. I also notice that the new laptop has a copy of PSE 12 in the program list. To my knowledge I have never deactivated any of my PSE's except the extra 13 downloaded. Bottom line, do I need to go in and deactivate previous PSE versions and removed them from my computer? I could certainly use the space and secondly, can I deactivate the PSE 12 and then go back and reacitivate it and install it again on the old laptop or the desktop, whichever I deside would be the most appropriate place for the newer program. For the PSE 12 since it is an updater for 11, does the 11   still need to be on the laptop? thanks for anyone who can understand what I am trying to say and can advise me as to my next move. Thank you very much.
