IPAD sync to Macbook Pro after Macbook Pro rebuild

I rebuilt my MB, but apparently didn't do something I should have done as it pertains to the itunes library and my IPAD content.
When I connect my IPAD to the MB it says it's synced to another computer, or itunes library. It copied the books I downloaded from the itunes store, but not the PDFs I created and put on the IPAD. I also have videos and other contect. How can I save the rest of my content on the IPAD, while still being able to sync it with the MB to get new content?

  • Will photos I edit in iPad sync with MacBook iphoto?

    Basically, I just bought a new iPad and I am debating whether I should buy the camera attachment and iPhoto for iPad for when traveling without my computer. Will the two libraries be identical, or will I have duplicates in my MacBook iPhoto of unedited pictures and new edited ones that I've changed on the iPad? I'm also still kind of wrapping my head around photo stream and if that means a lot of duplicates on my MacBook as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm not the best at unrest adding syncing and find its often easier than I realize.

    Are you sure you have to verions of iPhoto?
    Iphoto has two distinct parts:
    1. IPhoto.app is the actual software. It's normally to be found in the Applications folder.
    2. The iPhoto Library is where the actual photos are stored. This is usually in the Pictures Folder. It's actually called "iPhoto Library"
    So what exactly do you have, and where?
    Regards

  • Syncing photos to iPhone after iPhoto crash & rebuild only transfers a few pictures.

    I am using an iPhone 4 and iTunes 10.7.  I am running 10.8.2.
    My computer crashed while I was using iPhoto - seemed like a kernel panic from what I'm told - and when I restarted I had to rebuild the library.  That went fine (except for a bunch of pictures that I had to re-rotate), but when I synced my iPhone I noticed I suddenly had 4 GB free.  I checked and only 100 pictures or so were on my phone, instead of the usual 4,000. On the iTunes photo syncing page all the albums are displayed, but the numbers of pictures shown next to them are zeros and ones and fours, instead of 230, 81, etc.
    I've tried deleting ipod photo cache, repairing permissions and re-rebuilding in iPhoto, making new albums in iPhoto and syncing those.. I don't know what to do!  New albums I just uploaded have the full amount of pictures in iTunes page.  Just to be clear, everything is working normally in iPhoto and on my phone (as far as I know), but something in iTunes isn't seeing many of the pictures is should be. 
    Any help is welcome!
    Thanks in advance,
    Gray

    Also, if I edit the photo in iPhoto, iTunes "sees" it then.

  • Freezing since the first ipad sync

    Since my first ipad sync, my macbook pro has started freezing for the first time ever! The ipad is not connected or syncing during these episodes. Happens when I am logged on an internet site. Force quit does not even work. Has happened five times since last evening after my first download and sync of the ipad. Ayn suggestions?

    "Repairing permissions....how does one even start that process?"
    Instructions for doing so are in the OS Help Menu and various Knowledge Base Articles.
    Basically, all you do is the following:
    Save and/or quit your applications & doucuments
    Go to Applications>Utilities Folder
    Click Disk Utility
    Click the Volumn (HD) that you want to check.
    Click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (Don't worry about verifying)
    At the bottom of window when the repairs have finished, you will see the “most important thing”:
    Permission Repairs Complete
    The previliges have been repaired or completed on the selected volumn.
    Restart your computer (Optional) yet, strongly recommended.
    TIP-You should Repair Permissions & restart:
    After installing and/or updating an OS (Operating System).
    After installing software.
    After burning sessions
    ============
    Have you checked Software Update to see if you need to download any iPad updates?
    You should consider cross-posting in one of the iPad Forums. I do believe there is a iPad Syncing forum area.

  • Items purchased on my iPad lost when synced to MacBook Pro

    I purchased music and TV shows on my iPad which downloaded fine. When I synced my iPad to my MacBook Pro they have all disappeared. I did nothing different to what I normally do when syncing and am really annoyed. I 'reported a problem' via my order in the iTunes store on the 8 things that have disappeared, several of them being albums which means I am missing a lot of what I have paid for through no fault of my own. iTunes support have responded to 2 of the 'reported problems' one was relisted in my downloads and the TV series has apparently been refunded, have to wait 5 days for that to show. The rest I have heard nothing on. Has anybody had this problem and if so how did you resolve it? How can I contact the iTunes store to chase this up and get an answer??
    All help gratefully received.

    You are not alone! This happened to me this evening. I had purchased an album on my iPad and went to back up this purchase on my computer. After the sync I went back to my iPad to play off the album and all but three songs were missing! The horror continued when they were not on my computer either. How am I supposed to be held accountable to "back up my music" if my music is lost in the process?! I hope someone has some ideas for us.

  • Syncing Issues between Ipad 2 and MacBook Pro

    When we sync our ipad with our macbook pro we get over 100 errors for songs that won't sync to the ipad.  These are all songs we have purchased on itunes or downloaded from cd's.  Anyone encounter this before and have a suggestion on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    The underlying issue here is that you have chosen to use POP3 rather than IMAP mail accounts. Only IMAP mailboxes are 'synchronized' by default: it is virtually impossible to synchronize POP3 mailbox content.
    For a discussion of POP3, IMAP and mail synchronization options, take a look at the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum located here.

  • My ipad 2 and macbook pro don't sync

    I can't get my Ipad 2 and Macbook Pro to sync.  I have the latest version of ITunes and am running Mountain Lion on the Mac.  I have rebooted both.

    over wifi, i have tried using the cable but it does't sync that way either.  it shows that it is syncing but nothing changes and it syncs faster than it normally would. I am adding and deleting some movies from it and there is no change.

  • Is MS exchange the only way to keep mail synced across all devices? Can Mac mail do this without exchange? I have iPhone,iPad and new MacBook Pro, and looking for advice please.

    As Bob says, any iMap service can do this. GMail can, iCLoud mail can too.
    Both of these can be used with Mail on any device.

  • Calendar on Ipad won't sync to MacBook Pro

    The Calendar on my MacBook Pro will sync to my Ipad, but additions to the calendar on my Ipad will not sync to my MacBook Pro.
    I have followed all the directions  on the Apple Support page:  IOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer. All software is up to date.
    When my Ipad is connected to my computer and Itunes is open, I then select my Ipad, then the Info button. 
    Under Sync Calendars I see the statement "Your calendars are being synced with your Ipad over the air from ICloud"
    Icloud is turned on on both my Ipad and my computer.  The calendar application is selected in both places.  In particular under iCloud in the Settings app on my Ipad and under iCloud in System Preferences on my MacBook Pro.
    I have also made sure ITunes is open and both my Ipad and my MacBook are connected to power and on the same WiFi Network.
    I have read numerous posts on the web and none of them seem to help.
    If anyone can tell me ANY WAY to transfer Ipad Calender entries to my MacBook I would really like to know.  At this point I would be happy to learn how to do it when my Ipad is connected directly to my computer and avoiding ICloud altogether.
    Thanks for any Info!

    Here are a couple of thoughts:
    1.  Are you using the identical Apple ID and password on your MacBook Pro and your iPad?  Are they the same on both devices' iCloud account as well?
    2.  You might try logging into http://www.icloud.com using Safari on your MacBook Pro.  Check the calendar there.  Does it receive the iPad's updates?  If so, meaning the Safari's iCloud version gets the iPad updates but the MacBook Pro does not, you have isolated the problem to the MacBook Pro.  If not, meaning the Safari iCloud does not get the iPad updates just as the MacBook Pro does not get the updates, you've isolated the problem to the iPad.

  • I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together.  I receive all my emails on the macbook and iphone just fine, but don't receive all emails on my ipad.  Some go to Trash because it says they're improperly formatted.  What gives?

    I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together, which generally works fine.  I receive all emails from senders in my address book in my Macbook Pro and iPhone, but some end up in Trash on my iPad, with the message, "This message cannot be displayed because of the way it is formatted.  Ask the sender to send it again using a different format or email program.  text/plain"  They appear to be mainly from competing platforms, android, etc.  Is there a workaround for this problem?
    Thanks-

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • Question: How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?

    How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?
    rbarge

    Contacts sync via iCloud.
    Set up iCloud on your iPad and your MBP, with the same iCloud account on both, with the same Apple ID.
    On the Mac you set this up with System Preferences > iCloud, and have Contacts checked in the box on the right.
    It looks very much the same on the iPad, Settings > iCloud.
    If you have set this up and it's still not working, then sign out of and then back into your iCloud accounts.
