IPad to iPad2 PDF Transfer

I am trying to move from my iPad to a new iPad2. I backued up my iPad on iTunes, and restored from that backup and I am having trouble geting my PDFs in iBook to transfer. Everything else seems to work. Any ideas?

What app are they in ? If iBooks then you can connect the iPad 2 to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks) to copy them over to your computer's iTunes library - if you are using a Mac with OS X Mavericks on it then after doing that open iBooks on your Mac and do File > Move Books From iTunes. You can then sync them to your Air

How do I transfer photos from iPad to ipad2.

How do I transfer photos from iPad to ipad2?

With your computer.
Photos transferred from your computer to your iPad via the iTunes sync process should remain on your computer. You transfer these photos to your iPad 2 in the same way - via the iTunes sync process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPad 2 sync preferences with iTunes.
For any photos on your iPad that were saved from a received email or from a website or that were imported from a digital camera with the iPad Camera Connection Kit, these photos can be imported from your iPad by your computer as with any other digital camera.
Import these photos from your iPad with your computer, and then transfer the photos from your computer to your iPad 2 via the iTunes sync process.

IPAD3/IPAD2 :PDF files/ attachments sent in an email displayed inline ( embedded within the main email) in the message text on both my Ipad2 and Ipad three, however the same email displayed the PDF File icons/ attachment on both my Iphone and a friend's

IPAD3/IPAD2 :PDF files/ attachments sent in an email displayed inline ( embedded within the main email) in the message text on both my Ipad2 and Ipad three, however the same email displayed the PDF File icons/ attachment on both my Iphone and a friend’s PC. How do i get both my IPAD devices to display the PDF icons/attachments? Bearing in mind if i open the same email over the internet the PDF Icons/attachments display OK!
Has anyone come across this? Your advice/help would be most appreciated

This happens to me all the time.
If is a one page PDF it seems as though it comes over already open and inline in the body of the email. Multiple page PDF files show as the PDF icon.
I can't find any official documentation of this - other than based on my own experience with PDF attachments in my various email accounts.

How do you transfer apps from an iPad to iPad2

how do you transfer apps from iPad to iPad2

If you just want to install the apps then you can either sync them from your computer's iTunes or re-download them directly on the iPad 2 : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
If you want to sync the apps and their content from the frist gen iPad then you can backup the iPad 1, and then restore the iPad 2 from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)

My iPad 2 won't transfer to PC!

Ok, pulling my hair out now after searching all these forums. Trying to update my iPad 2 from 5.1.1 to 6.1.3. iPad is nearly fully, and in fact states in iTunes that it is over capacity by 215.7 MB (on a 16 GB Pad).
I am having the following problems/pains(!):
1. When I look at the list of apps in iTunes, it states there are 105 apps, but when I count all the apps in the list next to the iPad screenshots, there are only 58. i.e., the screenshots accurately portray what's on the iPad; the list to the left does not.
2. When I try to update, iTunes tells me there are purchases on the iPad that I should transfer. So, I dutifully attempt to do this, and it seems to transfer 67 files (which is obviously not the 105 that iTunes is telling me are installed!); chokes a bit on the first two files, I think they're the 1.x GB files, and then quickly goes through the rest of the 67 (not 105).
3. Enter 1 Infinite Loop... Assuming the transfer is a success, because I've not been told otherwise, I try to update again... And again am informed there are purchases that I need to transfer... Loop... Pull Hair out... Post here... Have everyone tell me to look at articles about backing up and restoring. Those don't work.
Also, what good is it to restore settings from a backup, if the backup has bad settings? Is this really a solution?
The main thing I'm interested in recovering is the Apps, which obviously aren't transferring, nor do they seem willing to... I suppose I can download them all again one by one from "the cloud", but then aren't all the app specific settings lost? Or is that what backup is supposed to take care of? Even though according to iTunes I only have 58 of 105 applications?!? Any why is the iTunes "List" (next to the screenshots) listing 58 apps, while the "transfer purchases from iPad" action seems to be finding 67? I'm so confused as to how all this is interacting, why memory issues on the iPad are preventing purchases from being transferred FROM the iPad properly, why there are no error messages after a "transfer purchases" attempt.
As one other piece of interesting (useless?) information, iTunes shows that I have 3.2 GB of "other" data. Not sure about the importance of this, but I think before I started any kind "transfer of purchases", it was only at about 1.5 GB or so... That's just an approximation, but the point is that the iPad wasn't maxed out of memory until I began all of this.
Any help appreciated, but I'm inclined to believe will not be forthcoming. Thanks anyway to anyone that was brave enough (bored?) to read through all this dribble!
I'll nominate anyone for 1 billion points if they can solve this. I've not found anything that even comes close to addressing this issue.

What number shows in Settings > General > About > Applications on your iPad, does that tie up with the 105 (is that the number shown at the top right of the Apps tab above the screen mock-ups) or the 58 (or is it a third number) ? The figure in Settings and at the top right of the screen should be the number of downloaded apps, so it excludes the built-in apps. The list of apps to the left of the screen mock-ups are the apps that are in your computer's iTunes library which are compatible with your iPad - so some might have an 'install' button next to them if they aren't currently on your iPad, those with a 'remove' button should already be on the iPad (so the 'remove' button would delete the app, and its content, from the iPad).
When you try the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases that isn't just looking at apps, it should also transfer any iTunes music, film, TV show, audiobook and ibook downloads over from the iPad (it should also copy any PDFs or epubs that you have in the iBooks app even though they aren't iTunes purchases) that aren't already on your computer - so the 67 is the count of items that aren't already on your computer that it should copy over, it will exclude any apps (and other iTunes dowoloads) that are already there, and it could also include other things.
The 'transfer purchases' also only copies the actual apps, it doesn't copy any documents / settings / game progress etc that you have in those apps i.e. it's just the app as downloaded from the store - their content and settings should be included in the backup instead. Before starting an update I normally advise people to take their own copy of any important documents that they have on the iPad, just in case the backup gets corrupted and can't be restored to the iPad e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the Apps tab, emailing, transfer via wifi (depending upon what the app supports).
You have enough free space on your computer, are there any items that you could safely delete from the iPad to see if freeing up space might get the transfer to work, and/or have you tried rebooting your computer ?

Can you help me with going from iPad to iPad2?

Two questions, actually: 1) how to migrate everything on my iPad to my iPad2 when I get it, and 2) how to delete everything on my iPad so I can give it/sell it to someone else. Thanks!

You should make sure that all purchases are copied to your computer's iTunes (with the iPad connected do File > Transfer Purchases). Media (music, films, tv shows) can only be downloaded from iTunes once so you need to make sure that any content that you still want is also on your computer before you give away/sell the iPad. Apps and iBooks can be re-downloaded so there is not the same risk of losing them.
If you backup your current iPad via iTunes then you can then use that backup to restore onto the new iPad2.
To remove all your content from the current iPad then Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings : (from the manual) +This resets all iPad settings to their original values and erases all your information and media+

Wife has a Kindle, Kid is buying a ipad. Can I transfer songs from my amazon cloud over to icloud without having to repurchase?

Wife has a Kindle, Kid is buying an ipad. Can I transfer songs and pictures from amazon cloud over to icloud?

Yes, and there are a couple ways to do this, and it may depend on what kind of songs you are talking about.
If you purchased songs from Amazon's ecosystem, and it is stored in their cloud, you can do the following:
1) Download their app.
     The app is called Amazon Cloud Player. The link is here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/amazon-cloud-player/id510855668?mt=8
2) Download the songs from their cloud, to your computer and then sync with iTunes
     This is the method I use, and all the music is then stored in the Music app, already on the iOS device. The upside to this method would be that all the other applications you have can access these songs too, such as apps for an alarm clock.
3) Upload pictures and songs to Dropbox
     This way all the content is stored in the cloud, and can be accessed anywhere and anytime.
For the pictures, you're most likely going to have to sync with iTunes to do that, or you can put them in Dropbox.

I have an old icloud account with music and pics on a computer and a new account on my iphone and ipad how do I transfer my pics and music to my iphone account or cync them i dont want to have to repurchase all my music to play on my iphone

Downloading previously purchsed music from iCloud is based on your iTunes ID, not your iCloud ID. (It uses "iTunes in the Cloud", which has nothing to do with your iCloud account, just your iTunes ID.)
If you are using a different iTunes ID on your iOS devices than the one you used to purchase the music, you'll have to sync the music to your devices using iTunes. If they are using the same iTunes ID, you can download the music to your devices as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

In iBooks on my ipad I have pdf docs in collections?? How to sync??

In iBooks on my ipad I have pdf docs in collections. Now with the new system, my purchased books are syncing, however, my collections are not syncing. How can I make that happen??

I have this problem too: the best work around I have found so far is to take a pdf stored on my computer, put it into dropbox, then open dropbox on my ipad, open the pdf and ask it to open in ibooks (or goodreader if I choose)
I freely admit this is a poor workaround. We don't seem to be able to locally sync pdfs or epubs that were not bought from the ibooks store (at this moment)

I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts,music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes - is this because of the different operating systems?

Can anyone please help

Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
In summary possible solutions:
1.       Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
2.       Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
3.       Restart both PC and iPad
4.       Uninstall iTunes from PC
Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!

Can ipad download music and transfer to ipod shuffle?

Can ipad download music and transfer to ipod shuffle?

No, you must transfer your music to an iPod Shuffle using iTunes on your computer. Read the instructions on how to sync your particular model of iPod Shuffle.

IPad not receiving PDFs they are arriving open. Had sender email to a friends iPad, she received correctly. This must be my problem. Never had this happen in past. What can I do, lay terms please, I'm not very technical!

iPad not receiving PDFs, never had this problem in past. Had sender resend to a friend, she received them in correct format. Help, not very technical lay terms please.

Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

I'm new to iPad and want to transfer my photos from my laptop onto my iPad ??? Can someone tell me how please ???

I'm new to iPad and want to transfer my photos from my laptop onto my iPad? I'm not sure how to do this and would appreciate some advice. many thanks in advance.

First organize your photos on your laptop. If it's a Mac you can use iPhoto. If your laptop is a PC then create one master photo folder and inside that folder place other folders containing Photos where each folder will become a photo album. Do not nest additional folders inside the album folders.
Then start iTunes 11.1 or later on your computer. If you do not have iTunes search apple support for it. The download will be free.
Connect your iPad to your laptop.
Select your iPad in iTunes on your laptop.
Select the Photos tab in the main window.
You can navigate to the main photo album and choose to sync all photos or you can select those albums you want copied to the iPad.
Finally click on Apply or Sync.

By reinstalling do you mean that you deleted the app and redownloaded it ? Deleting an app will remove the app and its contents. Do you have copies of the PDFs in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library so that you can sync them back ?
