Ipad syncing but won't go past agreement (was told to post here)

Hi,
I was told to post here as its more relevant to itunes
A friend has purchased an Ipad but is having a problem. When you plug it into mac it comes up in itunes and you have to agree the terms and conditions. You press Agree but the page never changes! and that means she can't sync the Ipad or anything
The laptop is connected to the internet is aswell (before you ask! haha)
Hope you can help
Many thanks
Joe

Jenn,
If you cannot run Repair Disk from Disk Utility you are ARE NOT running it from the original Install Disk that came with the computer or the Snow Leopard Upgrade Disk you purchased. Please follow the directions I provided and you should be able to run Repair Disk form Disk Utilities.
Regarding Best Buy I would recommend NOT taking it to them for repair, if you have an Apple Store in your area please take it there. If you don't have an Apple Store within a couple of hour drive use this link to locate an AASP to take your machine to.
I am assuming you have your Time Machine backups on an external HD. If so they are safe for now. In the event you need to reformat the internal HD on your MBP and reinstall OS X you can use the TM backups to restore from.
Regarding "do you think copying the disk as mentioned (from the disk utility) would work?" No that would not work.
Lets first see if Disk Utility can repair your internal HD. If for some reason that fails then you can run Apple Hardware Test and see if any HD errors are reported there. And finally if that doesn't come up with anything then you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or AASP.

  • HT1386 I have double and triples of photo's on my iPad. Not all my pics but most of them. I was told that I screwed up in synching with iTunes when I initally set up. How in the **** do I get rid of all the dups? I cannot delete them from my iPad. HELP ME

    If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app.  Look there and see if they are still there.
    If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows.  If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
    If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
    To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again.  Make sure you transfer purchases first.   Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.

    Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
    Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

  • My iMac starts, but won't get past the loading screen?

    My iMac starts up, but won't even get past the white screen with the Apple logo.
    It kept giving me black screens, and would not start in safety mode. After command + option + p + r, the black screens stopped coming, but it still won't get past the loading screen, if I let it load long enough the Apple logo is replaced by a "denied" symbol but that is the only thing that happens. By hitting command + d, I was told nothing is wrong. When pressing command + r and going to disk utility, it found an issue while verifying and repairing. At first it stated "invalid journal" but now it only says to reinstall everything and that the problem couldn't be solved. I cannot mount the harddrive, and Time Machine just searches for copies without getting anywhere. When I try installing OS X (Mavericks) again, the harddrive doesn't even show up. What do I do?

    The HD sounds like it has crashed, take it into your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP), if you bought AppleCare this will be covered. If you don't have an Apple Store in your area and don't know of any AASPs then please click https://locate.apple.com/country to begin finding one.

  • Music Syncs, but won't play

    When I sync my iTunes to my iPhone, a lot of my music gets synced, but the name of the songs are grey and aren't able to be played. The titles and album covers are there, but it's as if the audio file itself wasn't synced. Anyone else having this issue?

    Uncheck the music in iTunes and then sync your phone, thus removing all music from your phone. When finished, eject your phone from iTunes and perform a reset:
    Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release(ignore the slide to power off).
    Then, connect your phone to iTunes & sync your music back. See if this fixes the issue.

  • HT4993 i have an i phone 5 and want to down load a free ap from the app store and it comes up with 54 pages of a terms agreement but won't let me agree to it so i can move on?

    i am trying to down load an app from the app store and it comes up with new terms and conditions agreement but it wont let me agree to it so i can move on

    Hi, Aviation01. 
    I would recommend closing all applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Once you have done this attempt to download the application and accept the terms again. 
    If an app is unresponsive but the system seems to respond to button presses, you can force the app to close:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    If you are still experiencing issues, you can always download the application through iTunes on the computer.  This will allow you to accept the terms through the computer. 
    Cheers,
    Jason. 

  • Reinstalled software on mac pro, now can't sync mac pro, macbook, iphone, iPad. tried to rip a cd to iTunes, was told i didn't have access to itunes media folder or a folder inside it. i was directed to go to finder to deal with it. nothing helped.

    I've had big problems since the reinstall. can't use past itunes purchases, can't share properly across my different devices. all my devices use the same login in id and password. still, my main computer - the mac pro, which i did the reinstall on - is treated like a stranger. it's a big hassle, because i'm use phone, macbook, and mac pro interchangeably. today i tried to rip a cd to itunes on the mac pro (where I have 500 gigs of music on one of the hard drives). i was told i dont have access to itunes media folder or a folder within it. to change permissions i should open the itunes media folder in the finder and change the permissions. i tried changing permissions (the box at the bottom of the info box), and had no luck.
    if anyone can help me, i'd appreciate it.

    You haven't been hacked, you just have problems with your system. What those problems might be I have no idea, as your posts are a bit rambling and unclear.
    What I would recommend is to find a nearby Apple Store and take the time to bring your machine in to the Genius Bar there. (Make sure to make an appointment first!) You can do all this from the [Apple Retail Store page|http://www.apple.com/retail>. A Genius can look at the machine and help solve the problems. If your communication style and level of knowledge about computers makes it difficult to communicate with techs on the phone or internet, as it sounds like has been the case, this hands-on help could make all the difference.

  • ICloud synching In-App purchase from iPad mini to iPad 2, but won't sync the other way.

    I do Quality Assurance work for a company that produces an iOS application available in the App Store.  Right now I am trying to test license purchase and renewal and I'm seeing odd behavior with iCloud synchronization.
    -Currently our app is available in a limited version as a free download
    -We then utilize the In-App purchase feature to purchase a license and gain access to the full app
    -After purchasing the license, the license is synched through iCloud so that any device logged in with the same iCloud account should get full access to the app as well.
    Currently I am using an iPad Mini and an iPad 2 for testing on Apple's Sandbox site, both using iOS 6.1.3.
    The behavior I'm currently seeing is that purchasing a license using the iPad mini will sync via iCloud to the iPad 2 within a matter of seconds, but purchasing the license using the iPad 2 will never transfer the license information over to the Mini.
    Has anybody seen similar issues or knows what the cause may be?
    Thanks!

    I have no idea about anything associated with ios app developing, but apple developers do. From what I hear there is a developers forum here somewhere as well as support site. Should be something like developer.apple.com or similar to that - Google, if I am wrong. From my personal experience of troubleshooting I would suggest trying another ipad, since "one side" behavior is to me obvious glitch on one of the ipads. I am going to assume that you already checked all settings to be the same. So you get another ipad and see which one of the three does not play and then troubleshoot that one. I d start with rechecking all settings under privacy and so on. And end with factory restore. Good luck.

  • I have a download waiting for my new ipod touch, and whenever I press update, on the computer, it says downloading, time remaining  10hrs,however, on my ipod, it doesn't even show up. It syncs, but won't download anything. What to do?

    I am having problems with updating and downloading from my mac to my ipod, won't download at all. any advice?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten passcode:
    Restore (and reset passcode) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected (or the device was never connected to a computer) you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)
    If recovery does not work there's:

  • Songs are syncing, but won't play.

    I've seen a few other threads of people having the same problems, but nobody is offering suggestions or fixes.
    I've got a 4th Gen Nano that will download and sync all of my music, but some of it just won't play. The cover art will come up, along with the time-bar, then it'll sit and think about it for four or five seconds... then skip to the next song. It seems to be songs from the same albums that are affected.
    Yes, I've reset and restored the iPod. Yes, I've taken all of my music out of iTunes, and put it back again. I've even deleted iTunes, and reinstalled it; then tried iTunes on a different computer. Nothing.
    What makes this so annoying is that I KNOW it's the something on Apple's end with this iPod that's faulty, because these songs play on my PC (Musicmatch Jukebox), my PSP, my Macbook (on iTunes), on my iPod Nano 3rd gen, iPod Video, and iPhone. This is the ONLY device I've ever had this issue with, yet Apple keeps insisting that there's something wrong with my files, or that they are authorized or formatted properly, or something.
    Anyone got any help on this one? =(

    Ok I figured out something that fixed the problem I was having and you (TuxedoCartman) are having I think.
    ctrl click all the songs that are giving you this problem, right click one when they're all selected and click "Create AAC version" I think it was, either create or convert.
    Once I did that I deleted the original copies of the songs from the folders outside of the itunes library folder. Back in iTunes, click file and then show duplicates. Skip through everything in there and then delete any that have an exclimation before them. After that, I did the restore iPod stuff again.
    All the songs that were doing this to me now play just fine. Hope this helps

  • Songs sync but won't play.

    I have an iPhone 4s.  When I sync my music, not all of the songs transfer.  Some of the ones that do won't play.  They have a red circle with a red square in the middle beside the title.  How do I fix this?

    You are not addressing Apple here. We are all just users like yourself.
    Delete the songs and redownload by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If still problems contact iTunes.
    Contact iTunes
