IPad to non sync'd iMac

how do you download photos from iPad to non sync'd iMac

For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from email/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
If you want to copy back photos that were originally synced from a computer then you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • IPad 3 not syncing with iMac properly

    I have recently bought the new iMac and whenever I sync my iPad 3 it won't transfer new apps from the iPad, and also if I have updated apps on the iPad it won't then transfer this across to the iMac even though my iPhone 4S will.  Any ideas?!

  • Ipad Mini doesnt sync with IMac

      I have a 4 year old Imac running 10.5.8.  How do I go about updating the OS to mountain lion because my Imac does not recognize the ipad mini.

    You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to sync with iDevices:
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.
    You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

  • "sent" email on iPad (Google) not syncing with iMac

    Lately, when I send email on my iPad (Gmail) it does not sync with the "sent" mail on my iMac. (The "sent" box is not synched on both devices.)  Funny... I get the "response" or "inbox" on both devices, but not the "sent" mail. Everything else seems to be synched.
    STATUS: iPad1 with latest iOS. iMac with latest ML OS. I have both talking to iCloud.
    Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem?

  • How to get notes on iPad 2 to sync with iMac.

    My Notes ("yellow-ruled tablet icon) sync via iCloud with my iPhone, but I can't find it on my iMac?  Where is this app located on the iMac?  Thank for help!

    Theres no specific "notes" app on the iMac,
    The good new is that there will be in Mountain Lion.
    the notes actually sync with your mail account so it should be somewhere in the mail app

  • How do I sync the reading list in Safari on my iPad to safari on my iMac?

    i have a lot of items in my reading list on my ipad.  None of them show up in the readaing list on safari on my iMac.  How can I see them on my iMac?

    What generation iPad?
    What is the iOS version?
    You need to be signed into iCloud with the same Apple ID on both devices:
    Mac: System Preferences > iCloud
    iOS: Setting > iCloud
    and make sure sync for Safari is turned on:
    Mac: System Preferences > iCloud > check the Safari box
    iOS: Setting > iCloud > turn Safari on

  • I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now I have iMac and have changed to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?

    I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now that I have iMac I have changed the account type to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?
    I do receive emails into my iMac for which I have 3 email accounts but am struggling on how synchronise between iMac and iPad so that both are up to date at all times.  I have also set up a iCloud email account thinking this was the way to go but have drawn a blank.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Linc Davis,
    I have set up my email address both within my iMac and my ISP as IMAP accounts and I receive all emails without problem on my iMac. I have also set up an iCloud email address using my iMac.
    I have enabled the email within "setting" on my iPad and have used the iCloud account.  I have sent emails from the iMac to iPad using the iCloud account address and vice versa.  I have also sent emails from the iPad to the iMac using my non-iCloud email address and they have gotten through.
    The one thing I would like to have is for the iPad "mail" mailboxes to mimic the iMac "mail" mailboxes and both to be "in sync".  I am not really interested in using the iCloud email address for my email but would really like to use my "normal" addresses as these are what most people know me by.
    Do I need to set additional accounts within the iPad which are the same as the email accounts I have within the iMac and my ISP?  I have reached the end of my knowledge as regards email synchronsing.
    Thanks

  • My ipad mail is synced to my iMac mail account. On iPad, I can only see my inbox and sent messages. I can't see any of the folders I have created on my iMac. How do I do that? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there!

    My iPad mail is synced to my private email account, which I organise on my iMac. On iPad, I can only see inbox and sent messages folders, not any of the other folders in my email account I have created on my iMac. How do I get iPad to show my other folders? Probably a dumb question, but I know there's a lot of smart people out there.

    If you select a mailbox, you should get an Edit button (easier to see in landscape mode). Clicking the button will provide you with check circles for the messages. You also get Delete and Move buttons at the bottom. Check the messages you want to move and then navigate to the mailbox you want to drop them into. I think as long as you can navigate to a mailbox you can move the messages to it.
    In the Mac Mail application and probably Outlook on the Windows side, you also setup rules to move messages to specific mailboxes. If the mailboxes are stored on the server, then you can have the sorting done on the server and they should appear that way on the iPad. If your later messages do not show up, you may need to have the iPad app pulled down more messages until they are all showing.

  • How many ipads can i sync to one iMac?

    I am a teacher and our ESL team is considering getting 4-5 iPads for our students and we are wondering how many iPads can we sync to one iMac?  I thought it could be potentially much easlier to sync all 5 iPads to one iMac and use this one iMac and its iTunes as our sync station since I am planning on having our team all use pretty much all the same apps with our students...is this possible?

    Hi mstaum,
    Yes, they can all sync to the same iTunes library. The key is the AppleID that you will be using. Are you planning on using the same AppleID and iCloud account for all users? If so, then you will want to be sure to set up the Restrictions on each iPad to require a Password for purchases immediately, so you can prevent the students from purchasing other apps on the credit card you are using for the iTunes account....
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • I keep getting an error message when I try to sync my ipad or iphone to my iMac:  "The iPad (or iPhone) cannot be synced.  An unknown error occurred (-50)."  What is this about?  Thanks

    I keep getting an error message when I try to sync my iPad or iPhone to my iMac, as follows:  The iPad "_________" cannot be synced.  An unknonw error occurred (-50).  Does anyone know what this is about - thanks.

    Error -50 is a very unhelpful generic communications error with a number of possible causes.  Something between the drive to which you are downloading and the drive from which it is all coming is not working correctly, which probably leaves several hundred options.

  • Unable to sync iPad to iMac. Get message 'iPad can't be synced because not enough free space to hold items in iTunes Library'. Only major content is iTunes U stuff. Deleted this on iPad and unticked iTunes U from syncing on iMac but message remains

    Unable to sync iPad to iMac. Get message 'iPad can't be synced because not enough free space to hold items in iTunes Library'. Only major content is iTunes U stuff (lots of videos). Don't download any music or other videos to iPad.
    Deleted iTunesU content on iPad and unticked iTunes U from syncing on iMac but message remains.
    Very frustrating.

    No longer a problem. After leaving a while and trying again the iPad and iMac successfully synced.

  • I am learning to use my new ipad.  I have to sync to itunes to download to ipad.  I made the mistake of having a different ID and password on my imac and ipad and then synced the two.  My username is not sailsalot.  Too many answers to my computer.

    My account ID on my new ipad was different from my imac.  I accidently synced the two and then learned that the two ID's must be the same (which they are now).  I am new to ipad so am just learning.  My ID is not "sailsalot."  I am getting tons of answers from Apple Support to questions that sailsalot is asking.  My ID is <removed by moderator>

    For ringtones, iTunes > Preferences > General >Import Settings... button > choose Import using AAC encoder to enable Create AAC version from .m4a and mp3 files.

  • Deleting music on iOS 7 with a non-synced iPad

    I have the following setup:
    1) iPad 2 running iOS 7
    2) iMac running OS X Mavericks
    My problem: I have lots of music stored on my iPad taking up a lot of space that I want to delete, as I now use iTunes Match. The difficulty I face is that if I want to delete the music albums from my iPad, I cannot but instead have to go through every single track - a task that would take a VERY long time.
    My next thought was to connect my iPad to iTunes on my iMac and delete the music on my iPad from there. The problem is that my iTunes library corrupted a while ago and I had to rebuild from scratch, so this current iPad is not synced to this iTunes library. If I then choose the option under Devices -> iPad -> Music, select 'Sync Music' and choose no music listings, I'm told that this will replace the entire contents of my iPad. All I want to do is delete the music; if I delete ALL the content, then there are many files on my iPad that I need to keep on there in other applications, from Pages to iAnnotate to Notes, etc. Again, it would take me a LONG time to move all this content off my device.
    Any suggestions on a good solution here?
