IPAD no longer Sync's Automatically

HI,
Not sure when this has happened but my iPAD no longer Sync's automatically with iTunes/MacBookPro.  I've tried flipping between Wifi Sync and USB but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
iTunes identifies that it's connected but I always ahve to sync it manually these days.  My iPOD still sync's fine.
All comments and observations welcome.

Hi again notfeelinthelove!
I'm sorry that you are still experiencing this issue! To answer your question, yes, a restore on the iPad would be a sensible thing to do. An article about doing that can be found here:

  • Ipad no longer Syncs with my Imac

    Since updating my iPad 1 to software version 5 it will no longer sync with my 18 month old Imac running OS X 10.6.8. It starts trying to sync but after a couple of minutes it tells me that the "Sync session failed to Start". Any ideas. 

    Syncing of data such as Photo Stream, Calendars and Contacts (as opposed to music) using iTunes has been removed in Mavericks (the framework, SyncServices, which enables this has been removed). You are expected to sync your data using iCloud.
    Get Started with iCloud

  • Ipad no longer syncs calendar with my PC

    looking for some help - my ipad does not sync with my PC. it worked yesterday - tried turning off computer and ipad still will not sync calendar events

    See Pierre-Yves 1 post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23297197#23297197
    This was driving me crazy. Sync between Outlook 2007 and my iphone was working perfectly on ios 6 - I primarily sync Calendar, contacts, and notes.
    Then everything went bizerk with ios 7... All of a sudden nothing was getting  syncronized, but rather multiple Calendars and Contacts showed up in Outlook 2007. Disabling Calendar, contacts, and Notes in my iphone's icloud settings did the trick. Now I have ONE Calendar and ONE contact list in Outlook, fully in sync with my iphone.

  • Why will my new iPad no longer sync my non-iTunes TV shows?

    My original iPad, as well as my iPhone 4S, synced perfectly with iTunes 10.6. I usually use the option Sync 3 Oldest Unwatched for the TV Shows that I add myself, but this no longer works for my new iPad; it does not recognize non-iTunes TV shows in my sync settings, and refuses to sync any of them unless I manually select the episodes. What could be the problem here?

    Thank you for your reply and your suggestion.  I did try using a different cable.  The original cable was one that had been working perfectly well just last week.  ITunes is still not styncing.

  • IPad no longer syncs after abruptly stopping

    Yesterday, whilst syncing my iPad in iTunes (as I do on a weekly basis,) iTunes began transferring some tv shows I had purchased on my device. Unbeknownst to me, I did not have enough room on my hard drive to transfer the shows completely, and iTunes gave me a message saying that it had stopped the sync because of insufficient space (or something like that.)
    I freed up several gigabytes of space, and began to sync again, but this time with no luck. ITunes will run through the standard (taking forever) back up procedure, and then moves on to a dialogue that says "syncing contacts"
    Then it just finishes. No new app purchases are transferred, my newly purchased movies (purchased on my mac) do not transfer, and my new books and photos do not transfer either. I even tried to remove my music from the device, and it gives me a dialogue asking if I want to do it, and then I hit apply and nothing happens.
    After hours of searching the nets, I can not seem to find an answer or a fix. I can't even find anyone with a similar problem.
    Can anyone help me?
    Help much appreciated,
    All the best,
    Peter

    Uninstalling Zinio did nothing for my cause. I finally broke down and un-synced every one of the 175 apps on my device.
    I then re-synced everything but the apps (videos, photos, books...) and when I was content that was working, i re-synced the apps 5 at a time.
    Seems to have done the trick, but what a pain!
    Thanks for the help.

    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
    If you cannot get this information from the seller
    Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • Ipad no longer syncs calendar with iphone 6

    My iPad was working fine a few days  ago in syncing calendars with my new iPhone 6; however, I just noticed that when I receive invites [ics] they appear on my iPhone but do not go into the cloud to appear on the iPad.  I tested putting something on my calendar and that appeared on both devices; however, getting a test email from another person, it didn't show.  I signed out/in back into icloud on the iPad and still not syncing.  I feel the sync is broken and I don't know how to get it back. Can someone give me guidance on what to do?  I sync wirelessly on both devices and have also synced the with the cable.  NOTHING.  I use a PC.

  • IPad will no longer sync with iPhone when using iMessages

    I'm not sure what happened but my iPad no longer syncing iMessages with my iPhone. All have been signed in with Apple ID, all have the same telephone number and email address selected. I'm at loss what to do.  Any suggestions?

    I am having the same issue with my ipad 3 with retina display and my iphone 5 (both iOS 8.1.2).  Text messages received on my iphone will be forwarded to my ipad, however imessages will not. Also, some contacts that i can Imessage on my iphone (blue contacts) show up as grey, red or green on my ipad and it wont allow me to imessage them anymore.
    I have tired all of the apple support remedies to no avail, including a full reset of both devices. No luck yet. I hope someone can figure this out for both our sakes.

  • My iPhone 4S was recently replaced as it had a faulty wifi antenna. The new phone no longer syncs iMessage with my ipad like the old one used to.

    My iMessages were always automatically synced with my  6 monthold iPhone 4S. However the phone recently had to be replaced by apple because of a faulty wifi antenna. The new phone was restored from backup. It works fine but iMessage no longer syncs with my ipad. I've looked into the settings and can't see anything wrong? I can iMessage from my phone and iMessage from my ipad but they don't synch. Very frustrating. Would appreciate some help. My nearest spple store is 30 miles away. Thank you so much.

  • I have a 64GB iPad2 and selected to "Automatically fill free space with songs".... will it have to download that 60GB of music to my ipad everytime I sync?  It took about 8 hours to sync the music to it

    I have a 64GB iPad2 and selected to "Automatically fill free space with songs".... will it have to download that 60GB of music to my ipad everytime I sync?  It took about 8 hours to sync the music to it.
    I did this last night at 10pm thinking it would take 30 minutes to sync these 10,000 songs or so to my ipad to take up the 64 GB.  I went to bed because it was taking so long and woke up at 6am and it was just about to finish.  It finished around 630am.  So it took a good 8 hours to sync.
    I unhooked it and used it for an hour or so and then hooked it backup so that I could update a few apps on it.  When i did that it acted like it was re-adding all of those songs again and it took about 8 hours again to sync all the music.  Was that just a fluke because I made changes to the ipad?  or will it always calculate and then re-sync alllllllllllllllllll of those 10,000 songs?
    Thanks so much for any help!!!

  • After my ipad WIFI upgraded to 5.0.1, I can no longer sync with my PC?

    Recently, the new wireless upgrade worked wonderfully.  My ipad is correctly upgraded as of 11/13/11.  For the life of me, I can't figure out why my ipad will no longer sync with Itunes.  I realize that iCloud enables me to push various backups wirelessly, but I still want to sync with my iTunes in order to add playlists and content that will not reside on the cloud.
    When I say that it will no longer sync with itunes, I mean that I cannot get either an iPad or iPod Touch to show as being connected or synced with any number of apple USB cables conntected to my PC and iTunes.  Hard resets, computer reboots...since my upgrade, I can no longer connect these devices.  Can anyone tell me why I can't sync?
    Thank you in advance

    Minor update:  I have multiple PC's in my office.  This same iPad and other apple devices properly work and sync with their connection to this other computer.  Both computers are running the 64bit iTunes and both have Windows 7 64bit OS running on both machines.  I tried deactivating firewalls and even deleted the iTunes with a fresh installation with no avail.
    Something is keeping my Apple mobile devices (iPods, iPads) from being recognized within iTunes.  However, they all are properly recognized by my PC.

  • HT201317 My photos are syncing from my iPhone, to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but it is no longer syncing to my computer (Microsoft, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?

    My photos are syncing from my iPhone to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but they are no longer syncing to our home computer (Microsoft operating system, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?  I have since tried to remove and reinstall the iCloud application in my computer's control panel.  I have verified that I am using the latest Apple operating system and the latest iTunes.  I have reset my photo stream.  Not sure what else to try...   I was also having an issue with my calendar where it would sync from my computer to my iPhone but not vice versa.  Somehow in all the resetting that's resolved, but the photo issue is not.   Again - photos are going into the photostream, but not wirelessly being put into the file on my computer.

    To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.
