IPad Not able to sync with iTunes on my Mac

I just bought a new Ipad Yesterday. When I plugged it into my computer to sync with my iTunes- It said i couldnt run it beacuse I needed 10.7 or higher. But my iTunes says its running current version, and are no updates..?? Help..

In iTunes pull down the iTuness menu and select About iTunes. Post back here what the version number is. Also tell us what version of OS X your computer is running. An iPad requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.8.

Whenever i connect phone, Itunes get hung .

Itunes was unbale to connect iphone because it recieved an invalid response.
If i restart and connect it gives
Unable to Load Dataclas information for the iphone.Try reconnecting.
I did every thing
De-install,Re-install each and every thing based on suggestions at various places,still no use.
Even tried Syncing with Other OS XP , same problem-> Itunes gets hanged.
Im absolutely clueless about whats happened.
Somehow i was able to update the OS to 2.2.1 .
Dont know where the problem is....
Can any problem with Hardware lead to Such error..If yes..What are the probable hardware reasone...
Software wise i dont think anything is left unchecked,still any suggestions, help welcome..
Im really in need to sort this out as cant sync anything..the phone is blank wiht complete HDD free....No use.....
Please Please Please Help..!!!!!!!!!

As I read you updated your iPhone to 2.2.1. That means that maybe this cause the problem.
Sometimes when I connect my iPhone to iTunes I saw the message what says that "iTunes was unable to connect to the iPhone... " but if I reconnect my iPhone then iTunes recognize my phone and everything is OK.
If the reconnecting does not help you then I advise that reset your iPhone with 'Erase All Data and Settings'. Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Data and Settings.
If you reset your iPhone with 'Erase All Data and Settings' then your iPhone will delete your files and also the 2.2.1 software update and after that it will run with the original software what you bought with it.
The reset takes approximately 2 hours. And this is delete everything from your iPhone.
So, as it seems you can't back up your iPhone, that means everything what is on your iPhone will be deleted except if you don't have them on your computer.
After you reseted your iPhone, try to connect with iTunes. If it won't works then try it on an another Mac or PC and if you can't sync your iPhone at all, you have to take your iPhone to your carrier for a service.
Important note: After you reseted your iPhone, it will please that connect to iTunes to activate the phone. If you can't connect to iTunes your phone, you won't be able to use it!
As you know, without activating you can't use the iPhone.
If you can do the activation then you probably will be able to sync it.
If you can't be without mobile phone and just the iPhone what you've then don't do that until you maybe could miss your phone (I mean if you iPhone have to be serviced).

IPad not recognized or syncing with iTunes

Folks, after the major updates to both iTunes and iPad, iTunes doesn't recognize my iPad.
After reinstalling iTunes it gets recognized and syncs, BUT if I shut iTunes or the computer down it will not get recognized again.
Any thoughts?
Thanx:)

I'm having a similar problem, however, after reinstalling iTunes, I still don't get a sync. I wonder if this could possibly be a software issue with the new iTunes update? Maybe a misconfiguration for the iPad? Although my iPod Touch is not being recognized either....let me know if you find a solution!

After an recent OS7 update my iPad2 requested a restore which I did, at the end my iPad jumped into "communicating with iTune" but it never communicates. I restored 3 time alreaady and I am not able to communicate with iTune to be able to use my iPad which is my working tool.
What should I do?

Communicate with iTunes? What does this mean? Tell us what you are seeing on your screen and what you then try to do?

No it doesn't. Sometimes it make a sound that it should when connecting but that is it. Never actually charges or syncs. And it is a brand new cord.

I am not able to connect with Itunes Match. I constantly receive the message error 4010

I am not able to connect with Itunes Match. I constantly receive the error 4010.

I can run the general "Update iTunes Match" from the menu but cannot add individual tracks by right-clicking (control-clicking) on them the way I usually do. Then I get the 4010 error message.
Based on other posts here, I can assume the problem is not just me.

Hi there kushfromgbr,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
About SyncServices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
OS X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later do not use SyncServices. Instead, Mavericks supports sharing your information using several network-based and cloud-based solutions. If you want to sync your information across multiple devices and computers, you should use one or more of these methods. These include iCloud, CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol.
If you would like more information about setting up iCloud on your devices you can take a look at the article below.

My ipod touch does not want to sync with itunes

My ipod touch ( 4 th IOS 5 firmware 5.0.1 8gb ) does not want to sync with itunes on my computer while on another computer be synchronized
HELP please !

What?
What do yo mean it does not want to sync?
Are you trying to say it does sync with one computer but not with another????? If so, this is by design. All iDevices are designed to sync with one and only one computer.

Neither my ipad nor iphone will sync with itunes on my pc. it says i need a newer version of itunes but when i download the latest version i get the same message.

I can't get my iPhone 4s or my iPad 2 to sync with itunes on my pc. My very ancient ipod nano works fine. I get told that the version of itunes is too old. I have tried on 3 occasions to download the update, and while it doesn't say there has been a problem with the download I continue to get the same message. I do get a warning that itunes is not properly installed and that i won't be able to burn cds. I have tried uninstalling itunes completely and reinstalling but that doesn't work either.
does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Have you run windows update? That could prevent iTunes from properly installing. Also, try with your antiVirus and firewall disabled. What version of Windows are you running?
OS X is the operating system on the Mac.

Question about ICloud. Do I have to back-up my iPad and iPhone4 b4 sync with iTunes?

Question about ICloud. Do I have to back-up my iPad and iPhone4 to iCloud b4 sync with iTunes? Last time I synced iphone4 with iTunes, I updated to 5.0.1 when I connected, but it wiped my calendar entries. I had to reset to the last date I had synced (4months ago). So my question is... Now that I have iCloud, should I back up both my iPhone and my iPad before I sync with iTunes? And will all the data from iPad, iPhone, and computer all merge when the iPad and iPhone are synced?

It does not matter.

New iPad Air won't sync with iTunes on Windows 8

Hello,
I have an iPad Air that will not sync with iTunes. That same machine however syncs with my original iPad and iPad 2 with no issues.
Only thing that happens when I connect the iPad Air to the PC is a tile/window pops up like it is looking for photos on the USB device?
I have tried disabling, uninstalling/reinstalling, updating the driver, all with no success. I even factory reset the iPad Air and didn't change the outcome.
I can tell you that the iPad Air is running the latest firmware, my iTunes is the latest version, and Windows 8.1 is up to date, as well as both other iDevices syncing error free.
Any insight anyone could provide on what I could be missing would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hello jennebb,
The following article can help get iTunes and your new iPad Air working together.

HT203180 Videos can only be imported to iPad but failed to sync with itunes.

This article does not solve my issue.
My problem is: I can import and view the videos by importing them directly from my camera (Canon 5D Mark II). However, it fails to sync when I import them into iPhoto first.
Import from camera:
I have imported videos from my Canon 5D Mark II directly to the iPad using the camera connection kits. It works perfectly. I can view them in Photos and iPhoto (iPad). I can edit them in iMovie and Avid Studio. It works just like those video I took with my iPhone 4S which were synced to my iPad using iTunes.
Sync with iTunes:
However, it fails if I use the iTunes and iPhotos (Mac) to do my job. I imported the photos and videos to iPhoto (Mac) and then put them in an album which is to be synced to iPad. Then, I connected my iPad, started my iTunes and checked that album under the photo tab. After that, I pressed "Sync". When sync was finished, it reported to me that those files, which could be imported, played and edited, could not be played on iPad.
It is clearly a software bug in iTunes. Please fix that.

By the way, I have seen many replies in this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2398865?start=15&tstart=0) that describe the same problem. (Please note that I am talking about the replies, not the captioned question in the thread).
APPLE, please fix this bug.
