Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Ipad and ipad mini on same account won't facetime. Already added different e-mail account but to no avail.

After you added the new email address, did you select it in Settings>FaceTime>you can be reached by FaceTime at? You have to select that email address and unselect any other email address or phone number in there that is currently being used.

Does anyone know a true remote desktop to ipad and ipad to ipad remote access?

Looking for an Apple Remote Desktop to ipad program, not App... Then I need a program app for iPad to iPad remote access. Does anyone know of such aspect?

Garageband plus AU plugins, such as isotope OZone, etc. This is the cheapest.

The iPad "My iPad" cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to.

Since updating iTunes to 10.5 (running on OS X 10.6.8) I get this error message at the end of syncing for 2 different iPhones and an iPad 2:
The iPad "My iPad" cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Everything was fine before, and the sync seems to still be happening. The disk is actually readable and writable, and not full. The ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup folder write date is getting updated.

I am having the same problem with an older black and white 40 gig ipod. I had a new hard drive installed and using my Power Mac G5 running 10.4.9, where I keep the music library, I am unable to install more than 2 gigs of music. I have done the restore and it does not help. I get the same error message everytime. I was successful in syncing a new 80 gig minutes later!
Any suggestions?

I just don't get it. I got the iPod from a friend which didn't use it at all. If I connect my iPad or iPad mini to my mac, they all get connected well and iTunes sees them too. iPod touch not for some reason
The iPod touch is completely new, no missing contacts etc. It works on other macs as well. Only my iMac doesn't see the iPod Touch. Maybe I can repost this problem in The IMAC section in stead of the iPod Touch, since I think its a iMac problem from now on...
please help!

- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

IPad won't sync. Getting message "The iPad "Jennifer iPad" could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish."

Getting message "The iPad “Jennifer iPad” could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish." Or it looks like its going to sync but then I see it flash, "Cancelling Sync." The only thing I can think I have done differently is I purchased a video from iTunes on my iMac. Want to transfer it to the iPad.
Thanks... this is so frustrating!!!

Not sure if this will help but I would try disconnecting your iPad then restarting your computer. Also reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appear. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem. After both have started back up reconnect your iPad and try to sync again.
Im presumming here that you had been able to sync your ipad before you purchased the new video. If it fails to sync after the restart I would deselect the new video you purchased and try syncing. It just could be there is something wrong with that video file.

I tried to export photos from iMac to iPad using a USB flash drive. The photos are on the drive but when I plug it into the iPad, the iPad says the device requires too much power. Any ideas of what type of USB flash drive I should use?

You can transfer photos outside of iTunes. I do it all the time. THat said, i have a 50/50 success rate with them. I'd avoid sandisk and kingston, their bundled software triggers the 'too much power' warning.
I've had mixed luck with lexar, some work, some don't.
I did have good luck with an older 4 gig geek squad one.
Look for drives without software on them, without bright LED lights and I haven't gotten any larger than 4 gig to work, but that may just be me.
For a less troublesome way? h onestly, I use a SD card that I've formatted with the DCIM folder. I've never had one of them trigger the 'too much power' warning. Just make sure they're not SDXC. those don't work.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

TS3367 When I connect to my brother,who has a Mac, on FaceTime I hear him some of the time but constantly lose his voice. Is it my I pad or his Mac? I talk to my daughter iPad to iPad and have no problems.

When I connect to my brother,who has a Mac, on face timeI I can't always hear him he'll be talking then all of a sudden I can't hear him it sort of comes and goes. I can talk to my daughter iPad to iPad with no problems. Is it my iPad or his Mac?

Maybe there is a problem with the internet connection of your brother assuming there is no problem on your end.

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Reset all settings and contants ipad.Now ipad is not open?why?on the screen always apple icon.

reset all settings and contants ipad.Now ipad is not open?why/ on the screen always apple icon.

Why would you do that? That's not how you deal with issues on your iPad, that's how you deal with problems on poorly designed Windows machines.
Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
