IPad 4 will not connect to iTunes it come up with download lastest software update but when I check the computer said it is up to date?

Why does my computer not recognise the latest update for iTunes that the iPad 4 said I need?

You still didn't provide full information.  Look at http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/index-imac.html and you will see the number of iMacs that fit your description, all of which have widely varying capabilities.
So going on what I know:
1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575  This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac and has at least 1GB RAM (at least 2 GB is recommended).  Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window to "About This Mac".  Does it mention  "PowerPC" (not Intel), or Intel? To check RAM continue to "More Info...".  It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
2) Buy a Snow Leopard disc from Apple online
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - USA
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - UK
or telephone Apple. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
I have one of the first iMac 20inch with the bit built into the screen.
"Bit"? = big?
The truly first 20" iMacs will not upgrade to Snow Leopard which is required for iPad4 support.

  • IPad will not connect to iTunes without password, but screen inoperable

    After an attempted software update, the iPad will not connect to iTunes because it is password locked. But eh screen does not allow me to input the password. This is not a jailbroken iPad, but I did get a message on it that my "iPhone cannot send or receive calls without resetting."  This is why I tried to sync, etc.

    Try recovery mode.

    iTunes and the App Store are two different apps/stores. I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do. If you want to buy apps - go to the app store. If you want to but media - music, movies, TV shows - go to iTunes.

  • IPad will not connect to iTunes on migrated iMac

    I migrated my old iMac to a new iMac.
    My iPad will not connect to iTunes on the new iMac...     "does not have permission"
    How do I get my iPad to be recognized/associated/sync'd/etc. with iTunes on my new iMac?

    I assume so. I think the Migration Assistant copies everything from the old Mac to the new Mac. I have an iTunes folder in my home directory. It contains files:  iTunes library extras, iTunes library genius, iTunes music library - and folders: album artwork, iTunes music, mobile applications, and previous iTunes libraries.
    When I connect my iPad, the iPad icon does not show in the left column, and I get a message "iTunes could not connect to thid iPad. You do not have permission."
    FYI, I had no problem syncing my iPhone to iTunes on the new machine.

  • My iPod will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download

    My iPOD will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download
    I already uninstall itunes and made sure there were no file left before I installed again (it didn't appear to be any files left but music I had on it before was still there when I reinstall it)
    My ipod does work on my old computer and it was working on windows 8 before I update to  8.1
    I don't want to installed again because I just did that and didn't work!
    I want to use my iPod on this computer and system.  Can this be fix?

    Hey TheBurntApple,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone connecting to iTunes for Windows. While you may have already attempted most of the steps in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case something was omitted.

  • TS1368 My iphone and my ipad will not connect to itunes.  I believe this has started after the last i tunes update

    when I try to connect to itunes I keep getting a message on my Iphone and Ipad that says Can't connect to itunes.  It connected before last itunes update I believe.  I had paid for a game and the game will not let me play it now.

    You get this message in iTunes on your computer or on the iPad itself? Did you try quitting iTunes, and restart your computer?
    I had paid for a game and the game will not let me play it now.
    Not connecting to iTunes should have no bearing on not being able to use an app on your iPad - assuming that the app is actually on your iPad. What happens when you try to play the game? Did you try deleting it and reinstalling it? Did you restart your iPad or reboot the device?

  • Ipad will not connect to Itunes asks me to update which Cannot

    Hi
    I recently plugged in ipad to my Macbook pro 3.1 (2007) running 10.8.2 - and get message cannot use ipad as need to update to Itunes 11.1 -
    however this I cannot do - I tried 3 update to Mavericks , update just itunes and just yesterday again updated Itunes and these all FREEZE computer totally , I spent Days trying to work out what Caused the Freeze and trying every fix out there and only thing worked was Format HDD and install from Backup (timemachine or cloned HDD i have Backups) .
    So the Computer Freezes Immediately After Startup in normal and safe mode if I put on Mavericks and OR itunes higher then what I got now (11.02 )
    Now this is not a Problem for the computer - just turn off updates and I am happy , But now cannot use ipad , I have music , books, lots stuff sync from itunes .
    Does anyone know how I can use Ipad3 (fully updated )  -with Itunes without updating Itunes - or maybe roll back Ipad system so can use ??
    I had a google but could not find answer - everyone says update itunes on Computer which is one thing I cannot do .
    So either I need to do a Update to Mavericks or just Itunes or something so can use ipad again ?
    Any ideas appriciated as i cannot be only person with this Problem as Computer freezing with new itunes common ??
    Thanks Mark

    Hi Alfred
    thanks for the reply ,
    HDD capacity is fine have a 1TB inside and has about 500GB free space - so that should not be a problem .
    Seem's that the new Itunes causes a lot of freezing problems which i think is my problem , as Mavericks has the new itunes in - hence freezes computer - or just a Itunes update also freezes computer ?? I have spent days and days trying to fix the computer freezing with no luck - so rolled back to the 10.8.2 I had on a back up and that works fine and turned off an more updates ..
    But because of this cannot use itunes and I need to to connect to the ipad - so any suggestions appriciated
    Cheers Mark

  • Ipod touch screen shows connecting to itunes when not connected to computer and will not go to start screen  also will not connect to itunes get message that passcode needs to be entered but cannot get to that screen on ipod

    ipod touch shows connecting to itunes on screen even when not connected to computer.  cannot get to start screen to enter my passcode

    Place the iPod in recovery mode to bypass the passcode (and essentially erase your iPod)  and then restore via iTunes on your computer.

  • My ipod shuffle is brand new and will not connect to itunes

    my ipod shuffle will not connect to itunes and it is brand new and i have used other ipods on this computer.

    When you take this one back, be sure to have your USB docking cable checked, to make sure it is not  the thing that is defective.
    Also, make sure you have USB cable plug completely inserted into the headphones jack.  The fit is sometimes tighter than expected, especially when the shuffle is new.  This is apparently enough of an" issue" that Apple has a tech support doc about it

  • Ipod shuffle will not connect to itunes on win7

    Ipod touch will not connect to Itunes on WIN7. Used to work on Vista but has never worked on new WIN7 computer. Tried several cables and tried an Ipod shuffle. No joy. Current version of Itunes, restarted apple services and checked USB driver installed and functioning. When first plugged in, windows wants to know how to treat it (camera, file directory...)  and for a few moments shows it as a drive. Device also shows syncing for a few moments. Then Itunes starts, the device stops sync and windows no longer shows it as a drive. Itunes does not show the device but wants to transfer purchases from the device (transfer purchases from an ipod?). I tried the steps given in on-line help and the diagnostic. Must be missing something in the setup of Ituines. Any suggestions...

    Sorry sorry I am a not clear on apple product names. Actually do not care about the names. So I had to look this up so as not to offend anybody. I am talking an ipod nano gen4 AND and ipod nano gen7. Neither work. Can you direct me to somebody who might know how to fix this?

    Connect with cable to computer.   Your ipad is in recovery mode.
