Ipad 2 will not synch with itunes 10.3.1

Okay...I bought an Ipad2 yesterday and happily brought it home to start using it. My HP Pavilion dv6 running Windows 7 would not recognize it. I think I have tried everything. Re-install, uninstall, re-install itunes (including the various other components 'Apple Application Support, 'Apple Mobile Support' etc.). I upgraded the BIOS to the HP (a recommendation from the HP site). After about 5 hours of fumbling and a rather disappointed look at an ipad with a USB on the screen, I suddenly remembered my daughter had an ipod so maybe I could at least get started on that machine (an older Fujitsu Siemens). THAT worked.
In any case, I've gotten that far, but I don't plan on using my daughter's laptop forever. So - I came back to my HP and tried again. Still no luck. at the recommendation of several tried Restoring everything (and of course, not only did I lose everything, it wouldn't boot up again). I tried again uninstalling, reinstalling everything. No luck...Back to my daughter's machine for a reinstallation.
One difference. My HP now recognises the hardware. So, when I plug it in, I get the usual Windows 7 popup asking me what to do with it. At least my computer now recognises the hardware! itunes sometimes comes back with an error message 0xe8000065 and I've also had an error 1603.
I'm getting rather tired of all this after 2 days of trying on my own searching google, Apple support, and HP support. Does anyone have any ideas?
Regards - Craig

I have the same issue, if someone knows how to fix this, I would appreciate it. I got my Ipad for my birthday and I want to USE it!!!! Thanks!!!

My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop

I've been trying to do this for a while, it shouldn't be too difficult i think.
All i want to do is synch all the content on my laptop with my Apple TV (and vice versa) so all the content including photos and home videos is the same on both my Apple TV and my laptop.
Some points:
There's enough hard drive space on both
I'm using Windows 7 ultimate on my laptop
The correct port exceptions have been added to Windows Firewall
I have purchases on both my laptop and Apple TV from the iTunes store
We're using a wireless network and it while it's possible to get them both cable wired, it would be a pain
Home networking is set up in iTunes on my laptop
I've set up my Apple TV to synch (not stream) with my account on my laptop
Both iTunes and Apple TV are up to date with their downloads
I think that's it - am i missing anything, or should this now just work?
Cheers
David

As per the question, really...
"My Apple TV (1st Gen) will not synch with iTunes on my Laptop"

It's been synching for over 4 hours and hasnt got past the first film and the progress bar is not moving

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

Iphone will not synch with itunes after downloading most recent itunes version

I updated to most recent version of itunes and since then my 3GS iphone will not synch with itunes. the phone is recognized by my windows computer but not recognized within itunes. I redownloaded itunes and Q but nothing. Can anyone help?

I have a Dell XPS 8500 with a 64bit i5 Processor and an Apple 4s and I have the same problem. I have been searching for days and can only get the phone recoginzed by disabling power to USB ports and there is no way I can get ITunes to show devices, so I can't see the IPhone. People say Apple monitors these sites but I haven't seen any response from a technical person. Have you? My hunch is they know about the problem but don't have a fix, and have other priorities for their team. If my hunch is correct, its quite extraordinay because I am close to selling my 4s and getting some phone which is easier to work with. Time is my scarcest resource and I have devoted way too much of it to this issue.

My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to lastest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?

My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to latest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?

That could be a solution. Are you getting any error messages or error codes? Is the iPad recognized in iTunes? Does anything happen at all when you try to Sync? Can you provide more details?
You can try a very simple first step, quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad.

My new ipad will not sync with itunes. the device does not show up in itunes

my new ipad will not sync with itunes. the device does not show up in itunes. I am on a Windows system

Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded? If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized. With iTunes open, click on Store at the top. Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them. Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

My first generation iPad will not synchronize with iTunes

I haven't synchronized my iPad to iTunes for a while and when I plug it in to my iMac it just never connects. Does anyone know of an issue may cause this or a solution? My mac is running 10.8.5 with the latest version of iTunes and the iPad is running iOS 5.1.1.

Hello wga,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the iPad is not seen in iTunes and will not sync.
I recommend taking a look at this article to help troubleshoot this issue named:
iPad not appearing in iTunes
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
Here is step one to get you started:
Update iTunes
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. To check for available updates of iTunes on a Mac, go to iTunes > Check for Updates. On Windows, go to Help > Check for Updates.
To install iTunes, you need one of the following operating systems on your computer:
Mac: OS X version 10.6 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Note: If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7, be sure to download the 64-bit version of iTunes.
If your computer does not meet these requirements, you may need to upgrade your software or computer before installing iTunes.
All the best,
Sterling

Brand new iPhone 4S will not synch with iTunes

Just opened the box would not see the phone. I had taken it to AT&T to get it activated. All well. Works fine and sound great. Can't wait to get it all set up.
Trying to synch with iTunes would not see the phone. Since I still have the old phone I hooked it up too. It would not recognize that one either. So....
I decided to look on line. Seems like other folks are also seeing this issue. Some are deleting iTunes and the accessory files and the reinstalling. This seems to work for most folks that I read about. So I tried it. Cant get iTunes deleted. iTunes helper is "being used". I've turned it off in the system preferences and can't find any file anywhere. I pretty much have to continue down this path now.
So I suspect if I can get this deleted and then reinstall I should be in pretty good shape.
Please help me find what ever is preventing me from completing the deletion.
Thanks,
Tim

If you are using Windows, open a Command window with Administrator privilege and type the following:
netsh winsock reset
Then reboot and try it again. If you have a Mac or the above doesn't solve it you have a corrupt backup; delete it by going to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab.

IPad will not sync with iTunes/DL from iTunes Match

I have just purchased an iPad with retina display and it will not allow me to download tv shows or music which i have on my itunes, either by syncing on itunes via my Mac or by using itunes match. It has however allowed me to purchase Pages and has no problem with getting previously saved documents from icloud.
I checked all settings are correct but it still wont allow me to sync. It has become very frustrating. I also downloaded the Ipad Metro app but that seems to have disappeared from the screen but will open in the app store.
Would peple recommend resetting the ipad and starting over or is there a less drastic option?

iTunes Match is for music only, not TV Shows or Movies. iTunes in the cloud lets you download previously purchased content to your iDevice. As long as you use the same ID that you bought the content wih, you should be able to download that content again in the purchased tab of iTunes.
If you are using iTunes Match on the iPad, I think that you have to turn it off in order to sync with iTunes on your computer.

As for the app that is not appearing on the iPad, open it from the App Store and then close it in the recents tray. Reboot the iPad and see if it appears on the device. I assume that you have swiped from screen to screen to look for it already.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

HT1386 Iphone 5S will not synch with Itunes, even thoug both are using most current updates

I cannot get Itunes to recognize ( synch) with my new iphone 5s. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, rebooting both the computer and the phone and even wiping and restoring the phone. I've checked the bonjour program is running, Itunes is allowed through my firewall and run the Itunes diagnostics. Could it be because my Ipad has the same apple id? It seems to keep wanting to look for the ipad.

Ipad will not sync with iTunes to load new picture

i am having problems with my ipad as it will start the sync but then it says not able to sycn, i just updated the software and that went fine. i am sure what to do from here

Your first question makes it sound like you are trying to add new photos to the iPad and the sync will not complete. Can you sync the iPad without syncing the photos to the iPad?
Sometimes it helps to delete the iPod Photo Cache folder if you have issues syncing photos. If that is the problem that you are having, delete the iPod Photo Cache folder and then try to sync again.

IPad will not sync with iTunes in Windows

My ipad will no longer sync with iTunes (iOS5 was downloaded). iTunes shows my iPad as having content and I can sync, but when I disconnect iPad, nothing appears on my iPad. If I set up as a new iPad, can I still then access everything I have in iTunes?

You should, yes. The iTUnes content is governed by the apple id, not the device(s). I had my iPad die on me and got a new one and just set it up as a backup and it sync'd all my old apps and my new one looked exactly like my old one.
So I believe if you set it up as a new one, you will have to put everything back on the ipad, but your apps will still be there in iTunes.

My ipad will not sync with itunes. nothing shows up

when I plug my ipad 1 to my computer it will not sync. I would like to add my music collection to it. supposed to find it under devices, but there is not such link on my screen. doesn't sync automatically.

On occasion, iTunes will not recognize my iPad so what I do is quit iTunes, restart the iPad and reboot my Mac and it will appear after that. You could try that first, and if you still have no success, start with this support article from Apple.

Try changing USB ports on your PC and make sure that you use a port on the computer - do not use a hub or a port on the monitor.
