IPad 2 with itunes 10.2.2.12 syncing issues

I have an ipad 2 and itunes 10.2.2.12
I synced my ipad when i got it and now i want to link it up with my itunes to copy some of my ipod songs over.
the problem i am having is, when i connect my ipad it is coming up with the options to set up the ipad, and the only options are:
-set up as a new iPad
- restore from the backup of: monkeypaws iPad [this is the coeerct name of the ipad]
Last Synced: 26/03/2011 5:16 PM
Continue
now from what I can tell neither options of these are good. it reads to me that it will either wipe it all and start it up as new. or restore it to how i have it 2 months ago when it was new. so I will lose all the apps, games and videos I currently have installed on it, and every thing i have saved from those apps and games. is this correct? is there any way to skip this n get the computer to match itself up to what is in the iPad??
Thanks

FWIW, I setup AirPrint for WIndows over the weekend. This is a free WIndows app that you install as a service on your Windows desktop/laptop. That then acts as an AirPrint server. On the iPad, when you come to select the printr you want to use, any printers accessible by the Windows machine apears and can be printed to.
It is a bit fiddly to set-up but it worked fine for my network attached Brother laser. It's worth a go:

  • I am having problems syncing my iPad 2 with iTunes. Whenever I click "sync" or "apply," the sync begins. As soon as it gets to step 3 (in this particular case "determining apps to sync") it immediately stops syncing. What's the deal here?

    You haven't purchased apps with multiple Apple ID's have you? If you have, you can only sync with one Apple ID in the iTunes library at a time. Whichever ID you are signed into on the computer and the iPad would determine which apps would sync.
    Have all of your apps been transferred into iTunes for your iPad?

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

  • Probably a stupid question . . . does the iPad come with iTunes preinstalled?

    I'm in need ot a portable way to listen to podcasts and type some notes. Due to low vision I cannot use an ipod or iphone.  I have an imac at home.  Does the ipad come with itunes preinstalled, or would I haave to buy it separately.  I know I'd have to purchase another copy if pages, which I have on my imac.

    Yes - but the iTunes that comes installed on the iPad is the iTunes Store where you purchase your media. The iPad comes with a preinstalled iPod App and that is where your music library resides and plays on the iPad - not in iTunes.
    You don't have to buy either apps for the iPad.

  • Ipad frozen with itunes logo. reset did not work. reinstall itunes on win xp did not work

    ipad frozen with itunes logo displayed. Tried reset both ways. reinstalled itunes on Win XP all without success. Any hint?
    Thanks

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    iOS device backups are stored in your iTunes library.
    Move your iTunes library to an external drive.

  • After syncing iPad Air with iTunes the Info Page no longer shows up.  Doesn't matter if I sync via wi-fi or try another computer.  Without the Info Page how do I sync my calander/contacts/mail ??

    I think there's a big ol' discussion in the Mavericks forum about this - some folks have suggested setting up your own CalDAV server so you can continue syncing without having to route things through iCloud.
    It may be simpler to go back to Mountain Lion or Lion (assuming you were on either of those). My syncing computer is on Lion and can't go higher so I didn't realize until recently that USB syncing over contacts & calendars was no longer available!

  • Sync iPad 2 with iTunes on MacBookAir

    Hi!
    1.Please don't laugh at me when I say I am not being able to sync my iPad, after having been using it for more than a year now!!
    2. I had been syncing my iPad2 with iTunes on my Windows Vista machine. After my Windows Vista Laptop crashed, i replaced it with a Macbook Air 128GB (MBA). Since hard disk space on the MBA is at a premium, I transferred my iTunes Media Library to a 64 GB USB drive.
    3. Now I tried to sync my iPad with iTunes on my MBA.
    4. iTunes on MBA saw my iPad: sync started: backing up completed without any hitch: and then came the error message "The iPad “Rishav’s iPad” cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the selected items (additional 7.88 GB required)".
    5. I checked the available memory on my MBA, USB and iPad: details:
         a. HDD of MBA: 86.6 GB out of 120.47 GB Free.
         b. USB Drive where iTunes Media Library is located: 39.93 GB out of 64 GB Available.
         c. iPad 2: 7.7 GB out of 58.1 GB Available.
    6. Despite this availability of free memory, the sync is not going through.
    7. The memory utilization within my iPad, as seen graphically on iTunes on my MBA (when iPad is connected to MBA) is as follows:
         a. Audio:      8.10 GB
         b. Video:      7.30 GB
         c. Photos:    7.50 GB
         d. Apps:      14.00 GB
         e. Books:      1.01 GB
         f. Others:      2.60 GB
         g. Free:       17.94 GB
    Please advise how I can carry out my sync.
    Regards

    Ok guys! Mystery solved.
    I got the crashed Windows Vista machine up..... albeit crawling..... and synced the iPad back with iTunes on it. From the iPad itself, deleted ALL video files (movies and podcasts). From Windows iTunes, by manually managing the audio files, deleted ALL Audio files.
    Thereafter got back to MBA iTunes and synced. This time the operation went through.
    Thank you for giving the matter a thought. Shared the way I managed to resolve it so that somebody somewhere, trying to do a similar operation and running into similar problem as I, can have some pointers to resolve his/ her issues.
    Thank you everyone.
    Regards

  • Can't pair my iPad 2 with iTunes 11 (Remote isn't Working)

    Hello Guys,
    I have an iPad 2 and just bought an Apple TV and i want to use Home Sharing between them. But my Remote App (iPad 2) and iTunes 11 (PC / 64-bit Windows 7) don't let me do it.
    * All the devices are connected in the same Wi-Fi network
    * All the devices' Home Sharing feature is open
    When i'm opening Remote app and following the "Settings > Add an iTunes Library" path, a four-digit code appears. But in my iTunes, there isn't any place for entering this code. I tried everything. But nothing worked. Apple Support page says that "You must also have the iTunes preference "Look for iPod touch, iPhone and iPad Remotes" enabled" but in my iTunes, it only says "iTunes is not paired with any Remotes" and "Forget All Remotes" button is inactive.
    Some othe persons have this trouble too. For example: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3227453?start=0&tstart=0 and https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4130459?start=0&tstart=0 but these discussions didn't help me either.
    What should i do? I really want to solve this problem. Really. I'm going to mad about that. I'm doing everything on proper, but i can't receive complete service. It is really bothering me.
    Please help.

    It isn't asking for iTunes 10.6.3 on your iPad, you need it on your Mac.

  • How to stop to sync ipad apps with itunes without loosing everything?

    My iPad is synching it's apps with itunes. Now that we have icloud, my ipad already has a backup in the cloud, and the PC backup of my apps is no longer useful. My goal is to stop my apps to sync with itunes on my PC because it is useless, it takes a lot of space on my hard drive (with many apps other 1-2GB each), because it drains my network bandwidth when it syncs, and finally because it makes my music synching with itunes extremely long (because it needs to sync all apps when it sync the music), and all of that without any use.
    I tryed to simply uncheck "sync my apps" , but itunes wants to delete all my app and app data if I do so. I searched online and found out that some tryed to let itunes erase them, then use the icloud backup, but it seems that the icloud backup also backup the "sync my apps is checked", so it is not working. I tryed contacting Apple directly but for itunes they say we have to use the Fast Land, which cost money, which is conter logic (why should we pay to report bugs and get support for an unworking product that should work properly in the first place?), and also very frustrating.
    I got poor support by Apple over the years, but I now that the best support often comes from the people that uses the product itself, and that is why I am trying to get the answer from you guys over the support communities.
    None of us is paid to help each other, so thank you in advance for your time!
    PS: Apple; fast lane needs to be free, it's not normal to have to pay to get the service every company in the world gives freely...

    How do I keep these computers in sync in iTunes without iTunes re-arranging my iPhone home screen and corresponding app icons?
    You don't.  Each sync-able item (apps, music, contacts, calendar, etc) can only have one source.  You don't see it because all of the iTunes libraries have the same apps, but if they didn't, it'd be adding and deleting apps too.  So each type you sync, the one you're currently syncing with becomes the authority.
    Since you state that your goal is for all the libraries to match, there's no reason to be syncing them all.  Pick one, designate it as the authority, and on the other two, don't sync apps.

  • Problems syncing iPad or iPad Mini with iTunes......

    It all started when I tried to download some items bought on iTunes onto my iPad 2. For some reason it kept going through the download sequence then at the last moment they failed. Unfortunately I was nowhere near my computer at the time. After a couple of appointments at the Genius Bar I found I could download the items if the iPad was set up from 'New' - not much use as I wanted all my old apps back on. I sold the iPad in favour of an iPad Mini and had access to a computer too. Again, I could not download bought media from the Cloud but additionally I found I couldn't sync other Movies and TV Shows through iTunes.
    The common denominator was my iCloud account - more specifically my iPad back-up on iCloud (my iPhone worked fine). If I set up an iPad as a 'New Ipad' during a complete and full restore then transferring media with iTunes was OK. However, as soon as I did a restore from my iCloud back up, iTunes and iPad refused to 'talk'. It seemed there was something corrupt in my iPad's iCloud account. The only solution was to delete that part of the account and 'reinstall' it. Here is how I achieved it on iTunes 11.0.2;
    1.     Carry out an iCloud back up (just in case!).
    2.     Plug iPad into computer/iTunes.
    3.     On the iPad Summary page, select to back up to computer (encrypt back-up is up to you).
    4.     Click the button to 'Back Up Now'.
    5.     On the top menu bar select 'File', then 'Devices', then 'Transfer Purchases From ****'s iPad'. This can take some time depending on the size of the iPad.
    6.     At this point all the iPad settings and apps should all be saved (and on iCloud too!).
    7.     On the iPad Summary page click to restore iPad. At this point the computer may have to download the operating system from the internet first which can take a time depending on your internet connection.
    8.     Once restore is complete follow instructions on computer/iPad UNTIL.....
    9.     .....when it offers to set up iPad as New or from iCloud or Computer back up ensure you select COMPUTER BACK-UP.
    10.     Again, it will take an age as all the settings and app transfer back onto your iPad.
    11.     Once done have a go at transferring some media such as a film or TV show and all should be good now.
    If happy then its time to ditch that iCloud problem....
    12.     on the iPad go into 'Settings', then 'iCloud', then 'Storage & Backup', then 'Manage Storage' and there should be a list devices that back-up to the iCloud. Select the correct iPad that you have been having problems with.
    13.     At the bottom of the page is the option to 'Delete Backup'. Select this and that should be your 'problem' gone.
    14.     I at this stage restarted the iPad and computer and made sure all was well and they were still 'talking' to each other.
    15.     If you wish you can then go ahead and re-establish an iCloud back-up of your iPad. Once the backup is complete do one final check to ensure iTunes and iPad 'talk' properly.
    JOB DONE!! (Hopefully!!)

    Some of the suggestions in this support article might help.
    iOS Device Not Recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If this happens to me - I quit iTunes, restart my Mac, restart the iPad and then try again and that always works for me. It's a little different in the Windows OS because there are a number of other issues that can be causing this problem, but you have nothing to lose with the "restart everything" approach.

  • HT2729 syncing new ipad mini with itunes

    trying to sync my new ipad mini to my older macbook with itunes 10.6 it says i need 10.7.
    When I check for upgrades it says mine is the latest version. Help?

    The situation you are probably in is that your Mini wants a newer operating system and iTunes than your older computer can handle. It is quite common for mac apps and programs to have a limited 'backwards compatibility' where new programs and devices will cease compatibility with older devices and programs and operating systems.
    Your choice will probably be to upgrade your computer or use only iCloud to sync your mini.

  • HT1386 Having trouble syncing my ipad mini with iTunes

    When I sync my ipad mini with my iTunes it appears the process is happening, the line indicating music is present on the ipad appears. But when the syncing is done the line disappears and no music has been loaded to the ipad.

    Are you signed into the correct iD on the iPad in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID?
    Do you have Sync only  checked songs and videos selected in the Summary Tab of iTunes? If you do, are you selecting the music to sync? If you don't have that checked, have you selected the music to sync? Are you trying to sync the entire library?
