My ipad will not sync with itunes/windows 8

My ipad will not sync with windows 8. I had no problem with windows 7.

Some user have experienced issues with Win 8, as of yet its not listed as supported in system requirements for the ipad.

My ipad will not sync with all my music and films in my itunes library. I have just carried out a restart and sync again but still not showing all my music or films.

My ipad will not sync with my library in itunes, i have music and films in my itunes library but they will not transfer to my ipad. I have just carried out a restart to factory settings and then sync of my back up but still no joy. Any suggestions?

Have you selected the content to sync to your iPad in your sync settings in iTunes. The content that you want to transfer must be selected (checked or "ticked") to sync out will not transfer when you sync.
For instance - if you want to sync music....
Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Music Tab on the right.
Click on the albums or playlists that you want to sync - or the entire library if you like.
Click on the Sync Music Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
This applies to all content that you want to transfer from iTunes to your iPad. Make the selections in the appropriate tabs in the iTunes window on the right.

Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to latest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?

That could be a solution. Are you getting any error messages or error codes? Is the iPad recognized in iTunes? Does anything happen at all when you try to Sync? Can you provide more details?
You can try a very simple first step, quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad.

Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded? If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized. With iTunes open, click on Store at the top. Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them. Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

My "notes" on iPad will not sync with iPhone thru iCloud. What gives?

My "notes" on iphone and iPad will not sync thru iCloud. I am sure it is user error...but I can not figure it out.

It reads like this is a problem on the iOS side. On your iPhone or iPad launch the notes app, in the top left corner tap the button until you are on the Accounts page and see if iCloud is an option. If it is select that option and new notes will push to your Mac. If its not close the Notes app and go to Settings > iCloud > Notes > Toggle On. The option will now be in the notes app as described above. Side note: You may be asked to set up an iCloud email if you haven't already. Hope that helps.

IPad will not work with G4 due to lack of native USB 2.0 Hub

Now that I've spent over $1000 including upgrading my G4 to Leopard, I am told by technical support that I need to get a new computer to make this iPad work.
It is not recognized in iTunes and I'm told this is because the USB 2.0 that I added to my G4 does not supply enough power for my iPad.
Is this really true? Does any have any suggestions before I invest in a new computer just to make this iPad work.
Has anyone else had an iPad work on a G4??

If your problem is that iTunes will not recognize the iPad using your USB 2.0 card, the problem is not the power output of that card. Underpowered USB ports/hubs work just fine as far as synching with iTunes, it is just for charging the iPad it will happen real slow with the iPad turned off.
The day I got my iPad, I noticed it wasn't fully charged (90% I think). I didn't want to wait until I got home so I brought my old 2004 Toshiba Tecra 9100 laptop just to activate it. It only has USB 1.1. The laptop synched and activated just fine, and of course I got the not charging message. By the end of the day the charge was up to 93%.
On my Intel iMac at home (just a week after i got my white case, they came out with the prettier case, dangit!) and I get the same thing, Not Charging, but left in long enough and it will eventually charge up.
Now, if your problem is iTunes will not recognize the iPad at all, then play the swapout game.
Try another device plugged into that USB card. Works? Card should be fine.
Do you have another iPod or iPhone? Swap out USB cables. Does the iPad cable work on the other device just fine? Cable not a problem. Does the other cable work on your iPad? If still no, continue. If it does work, probably bad cable.
Like others posted, try another computer if at all possible. If it works, problem not with the iPad or cable. If the above other device works with your USB card, then could be some weird incompatibility.
Does your G4 have any other USB ports to try out, even if they are 1.1? ; I'm unsure if it works with 1.0, but obviously 1.1 by itself should work just fine. If this works, definite USB card problem of some sort, or just a general incompatibility.
Finally, and I don't remember if this works on an iPad that has not even been activated yet, does it work with the supplied wall outlet? At least as far as it looks like it is charging?

IPad will not connect with extended network and/or guest network

I have extended my main network (AP Extreme) with an AP Express and uses a guest network too, all Macs, PC's, iPhones, game consoles, mediaplayers can connect to the internet with both networks. Only one device does not work with the main network and that is the iPad (1st gen). It can connect to the guest network, though. If i disconnect the Express, the iPad can connect with the main network or if I set the guest network to off it will too. But I want to connect to the main network (remote access).
Device.                          Network.          iPad internetconnection
Extreme.                        Main.               Yes
Extreme + Express.       Main.               Yes
Extreme.                        Main + guest    Yes both
Extreme + Express.       Main + guest.   NO
I have reset the network configurations on the iPad and it works for only one time, if the iPad goes into sleep mode and restarts, the connections is lost. The iPad seems to be connected with the router/AP but no internet access.
Fyi
- all devices have a fixed IP address dedicated by the Airport. i tried to use DHCP, but no difference
- radio channels on automatic
- all on 2,4 GHz band
IS THIS A IPAD 1 ISSUE and do I have to accept the fact that Apple does not support the iPad 1 anymore?
Any suggestions how to fix this? Thank you.

Thank you for the suggestion.
The name of my home wifi network is automatically found by the iPad and after I select it the iPad asks for a password. I have typed in my password that I use with my laptop, but it does not work.
I also tried the two alpha numeric 13 digit strings on my router. It is actually a Belkin. Neither of those worked either.
finally, I went into general as I could not find settings to tell the iPad to forget network settings?

My ipad will not charge with adapter

My iPad2 suddenly stopped charging with the AC adapters (all 3 that I have). It will charge with the computer USB port, very slowly.

Does the iPad charger charge the iPhone?
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

My first generation iPad will not synchronize with iTunes

I haven't synchronized my iPad to iTunes for a while and when I plug it in to my iMac it just never connects. Does anyone know of an issue may cause this or a solution? My mac is running 10.8.5 with the latest version of iTunes and the iPad is running iOS 5.1.1.

Hello wga,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the iPad is not seen in iTunes and will not sync.
I recommend taking a look at this article to help troubleshoot this issue named:
iPad not appearing in iTunes
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
Here is step one to get you started:
Update iTunes
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. To check for available updates of iTunes on a Mac, go to iTunes > Check for Updates. On Windows, go to Help > Check for Updates.
To install iTunes, you need one of the following operating systems on your computer:
Mac: OS X version 10.6 or later
PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Note: If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7, be sure to download the 64-bit version of iTunes.
If your computer does not meet these requirements, you may need to upgrade your software or computer before installing iTunes.
All the best,
Sterling
