IPad with 2 computers.
I sync my iPhone with 2 macs one has all my photos, 1 has all my music and videos. This works fine but I've just got an iPad and it won't let me sync with more than 1 machine. Is there anyway to get this to work?
Thanks
Yeah but I really want it to sync, my iphone will sync with both macs wirelessly. I don't get why my iPad can't!
It does actually work with my iPad but I get error messages which I cancel and it works. But it won't show both machines on the wireless sync menu like my iPhone.

I am going to Chile and want to charge my iPad while I am there. I bought a dual wattage converter (changes 220V to 110V), but it says to not use with computers. Would this include my iPad?
Somewhat much later query but I do have a related one. I've purchased my iPad 2 in India in October past. Using an adaptor for Canada I seem to have no problems charging it. Now I'm travelling to Chile and I see there is a 'similarity' in the two prongs on the electrical cord which came with the iPad (India) AND a similar pair of dual prongs used in Chile. I note Chile also uses a 3 - prong (horizontal) outlet. Query - Should I have any concern re the different currents used ; Canada 120V - 60 Hz versus Chile 220 - 50 Hz, or as noted earlier the iPad takes care of that with its built in converter. Thank You.

i'm trying to sync my iPad with my new pro and i get message saying 5 computers authorised ?? what to do
1. De-authorize one of your five computers and then authorize your new Pro.
Or, if you don't have five computers and got rid of them before you de-authorized them...
In iTunes, click your iTunes user ID in the upper right corner of the iTunes Store. Select Account and then press the "De-Authorize All" button. All of your computers will be de-authorized. Then it is just a matter of re-authorizing the computers that you want to use with iTunes. -
I don't want to sync what is on my iPod to my iPad. (I have a 32gb iPod but only 16gb on iPad. The iPod I use mostly for music.) I can't seem to add the films I have downloaded onto iPad to iTunes. If I could do that, I could erase them from iPad to create more storage.
This is intensely confusing, sorry.Question.....
"I own an iPhone4, an iPod 3rd generation and an iPad 2. I use the same iTunes library but unfortunately synced iPad with a different computer before syncing to my own. Do I risk losing the films/apps I've downloaded onto my iPad if I sync with my iPod?"
Answer.....
Yes you will lose the films that you downloaded to the iPad when you sync with your own iTunes unless you transfer the purchases into your own iTunes library. Were these movies that you purchased? If so, you might be able to download them again for free. Do you have multiple computers that you sync from or is this someone else's purchased content?
You can select whatever you want to sync to all of your devices in iTunes, you do not have to sync the same content to all device.

I want to sync my iPad with a new laptop, so I can get rid of the old computer. I have already downloaded all the itunes content on the new laptop, but when i go to sync, it tells me that itunes will erase and copy all the apps from the new library. The 2 computers are on the same account, so is there a way to copy the apps (including app data) onto the new laptop, instead of vice versa?

I am working in a school. Last year we had one ipad cart which holds 30 ipads and one macbook for syncing. This year we bought another cart of 30 ipads, but not an extra macbook. Can I sync all 60 ipads to the one macbook computer?
In theory everything that you are saying sounds right to me.
I am not sure at all what the limitations are when using the iPad in education as far as how many iPads can sync to one iTunes account. I am going to take a stab in the dark here and guess that you can sync up to 49 iPads with one Mac and one iTunes account since the device that I found has 49 ports. How's that for an obvious guess?
But seriously, I don't how Apple treats volume licensing with a single iTunes account in education. You were using 30 iPads this past school year so we know that's not a problem. The device that I found has 49 ports so we assume that 49 iPads are OK as well. You would have to check with Apple as to what the limitations/rules arefor using a single iTunes account.
There has to be a way to sync as many iPads as you have students in those classes or the iPad in education would not be a viable option. What I don't know about is how you go about paying for that volume license or how it is implemented.
For personal use, you can use up to 10 devices with a single Apple ID/iTunes account. No more than 5 of those devices can be computers. -
please please can some one tell me how do you charge ur ipad with ur laptop. it doesn't chage wen I put use the wire. only charges when I plug the socket in. Iv never used an ipad b4 so don't really know much. Hope some one knowz.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W 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 (2.5W, 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%.

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.

Sync iPad with 2 Apple ID's?
I have an iPad 2 that I use for work. For this I have a "work" Apple ID which I use for synching with my work laptop. But is it possible to also sync the iPad with my "private" Apple ID and MacBook?
What you want to do is difficult. You can mix content from more than one Apple ID on the same iOS device, but that is easiest when the content is mixed together in the same iTunes library. When you sync your iPad to the work ID and laptop it will erase everything that is on the iPad. The same with your personal ID and the MacBook. There is a new ability in iOS 5 to sync specific content wirelessly to an iOS device. You could be syncing photos from your personal Mac and be syncing the Apps from your work laptop, but you cannot sync all content from multiple computers separately.

Can i use lightroom on my PC, Mac and ipad with the photography CC subscription?
I have read that desktop programs may be used on 2 devices but does the mobile version count as one of those or can I use it on all 3 with the photography CC subscription?
The mobile versions do not count against your number of devices. I am currently running LR on a MAC, an iPhone and an iPad With no problems.
Note that you can also install CC on more than two computers, but you can only have two machines signed in to CC at the same time. To run on a 3rd machine, you would have to sign off on one of the other two machines.
hope this helps.

I want to sync my ipad with my new imac in order to copy all my carefuly comleted contacts from imac to ipad. When I connect ipad to imac the info button in itunes on the imac does not exist so I cannot sync. My ipad is synced with my old pc without difficulty.
Hello, shells hip.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I see you have a new iMac and assume that it is running Mavericks. With Mavericks the only way to sync information via the Info tab would be to use iCloud. Here is some information that will walk you through the process of using iCloud.
If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

I want to sync my iPad with both my Mac and PC and it must not delete stuff from the other machine.
iOS devices are primarily designed to be synced with one computer only. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1474
If you manually manage your media, rather than automatically sync it, you can kind of do what you want.
If your two computers are both on the same network, use iTunes Home Sharing feature.
