IPad II freezing in iTunes - NOT during synch

I'm on an iPad 2 running IOS 5.0.1, the most current, update and iTunes is completely frozen on a single screen. It's just a regular screen in iTunes. I am not in the middle of a synch. No amount of restarting or closing out of other applications is making a difference. Meanwhile, iTunes is running just fine on my iPhone and PowerMac so this is an iPad issue. All other applications are running correctly on my iPad, including Music and Safari. Suggestions?

1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

  • Notes: does the iPhone back up Notes during synch?

    Does the iPhone back up the Notes during Synch? I can't see any notes on iTunes. Is there a way to see the Notes on the computer? I would like to keep track of my Notes; or some sort of text file/database with secure back up.

    Yes. "Backup information includes information such as mail settings, text messages, notes, call history, contact favorites, sound settings, widget settings, certain network settings, and other preferences including settings and data from third-party applications purchased from the App Store." http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

  • My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

    my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or  function for at lease  5 mins then just closes down

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • HT1386 My device is not seen in iTunes with the lightning cable that came with the iPad air.  Is that not a synching cable?

    my device doesn't seem to be recognized by iTunes with the cable provided with the brand-new iPad Air?  I am unable to synch. Suggestions.?  Is that cable in the box only for charging?  It is a lightning cable and I did upload the latest Operating systems for both the iPad and iTunes.

    It is a sync cable.
    Try a different usb port.
    reinstall itunes.
    Turn the pc off/on.

  • Freezing and itunes not found questions

    I have two concerns/questions
    1. why does my itunes application never work. I hit itunes try to see the store or when I'm using Panda it says itunes cannot be opened or some such message
    2. my phone semi froze today (again but different this time).
    I could call my phone and it would vibrate - but not ring and I could not answer it.
    I couldn't shut it down to reopen. It was open to the phone page - couldn't get it back to the home/icon page.
    I did do an update and that restored it but my concern is what can I do when I'm not near my computer (traveling etc). any ideas would be greatly appreciate.

    I meant Shazam and I think the other person you referred to meant Pandora. Shazam is an application where you can put your phone up to a radio playing a song and it will identify it for you and then take you to itunes to purchase the song if you want.

  • IPad backup freezes my iTunes and won't allow New Software Update!  HELP!

    Okay... I am getting so frustrated. I am on a Windows 32bit XP and don't have any problems with my other iDevices.
    I tried over and over, yet every time I connect my iPad it says that it is backing up and then just sits there until I finally get a "program not responding message." In addition, even if I "x" out of the backup part and allow it to finish the rest of the sync process, which it does fine, it isn't allowing me to update to the new version of the software.
    When I click on the update software it verifies the iPad and then goes to backup the iPad and then same thing... it just sits and sits no bar, no nothing. If I hit the "x" it simply closes out of the process altogether.
    What am I missing? Suggestions? Help?

    oh wait... i guess it did update... nvm thank you though

    My Ipod has stopped working properly since the laptop shut down during synching.
    My ipod is being slower and wont show any music. when I go into general settings it says the music and videos are loading..
    It wont let me into settings all of the time either.
    My applications and games have become slow or unresponsive.
    The ipod keeps resetting itself, I have tried resetting it to no avail.
    I tried plugging it into itunes but it freezes itunes and wont show up on my computer.
    When I switch off the ipod it shows a spinning wheel until the battery dies, which could be nearly 2 hours!!
    does anyone have any advice as to what to do?
    currently ive reset it - nothing has happened
    ive let the battery drain itself then recharged it to see if that would make a difference - no difference
    Help ASAP needed

    Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

  • Ipad will not complete synch in itunes

    My iPad (4th gen) will not complete synch in iTunes. It just hangs on the last synch step. Using iOS 8.0.2 and iTunes 11.4 on MacBook Pro with OS X 10.9.5. Would appreciate any recommendations.

    When I scroll down and view my AppleID (which I was already logged in) it makes me login again, I do and it says I can't access the iTunes store and that I can only do that in the Portugeuse store, then it wants to redirect me to that store.
    Apparently someone set up this Apple ID to only work for Portugal, which is driving us crazy.  I cam easily create her another AID to work in the US, but I don't know if this will then conflict with her iCloud storage, which is the "portuguese" one (LOL!)
    She has numerous devices (2 iPhones, 1 Airbook, 1 iPad) all in a big mess of a jumble.  I'm hoping to make these be able to sync contacts, photos, calendar, music, etc.
    Her email is gmail so I can use IMAP for that.
    I am now able to swipe across the store - thanks!
    Is there a setting in iPad that controls how your scroll/swipe sensitivity to touch is? or is it standard.  It seems pretty sensitve (if you accidently touch anything you launch it, etc)

    Regular or smart?
    You may need to remove any references to Podcasts, e.g. use "Playlist is Music" instead of "Podcast is false".

  • TS1369 My IPad is now showing as not Synching to Itunes, although it has done in the past no problrm.

    Cannot get my IPad to snch to ITunes on my Computer, Not had a probelm previously.
    Have gone into help and it is shown as not connected.

    The track is probably corrupted in some way so won't play. This has happened to me and I just deleted the track and redownloaded (should be free if youve already paid for it... but check that you can do this before deleting it). This should help...

    If this doesn't work then report it to ITunes.
