Ipad won't sync to windows 7

I have an ipad and use windows 7.
My Itunes is on a WD external usb drive. I used to be able to sync just fine. But after I bought some movies on the ipad. I can't sync or back up, or transfer purchases, I get a my book is full when I have 300G available.

I have tried wireless syncing. I have tried another computer. I have removed and re-installed itunes. I have moved my library to the internal hard drive.

IPad won't sync; instead tells me it's syncing for 2 seconds without result

Hey
Here's my problems:
My iPad won't sync to my computer
My iPad's system time and calendar are messed up after the failed sync
What happens:
Once I connect my iPad to my PC with iTunes open, it starts to sync
Two seconds later, iTunes tells me the sync is finished
Nothing new appears on my iPad, and my the time and calander are messed up
What I've tried:
manual sync (only works for music)
reboot computer
reboot iPad
uninstal and reinstal iTunes
Info (I'm not sure if all of this is relevant):
I just switched from a 32 bit Windows XP to a 64 bit Windows 7 computer
My iTunes is also 64 bit
I'm using a different iTunes account than I was before, and I've successfully downloaded books and music with it on my iPad
The iTunes library is in the right place (it's on an external hard drive, just like it was on my old computer); I can see and play the music on my computer
I have an iPad 1, latest software update available; it's about two years old
My computer runs on 110 volts, and my iPad runs on 220 volts (I baught my iPad in europe and moved to the US a few weeks ago; I use an adapter to recharge it, which works fine)
I've tried different USB ports, all directly in my computer
Thanks for reading all this :/ Hope anyone knows whats wrong. Thanks

SOLVED
It turned out I still had apps installed from my previous iTunes account (Apple ID), which I deleted and re-installed using the new account. After that, it worked perfectly

I had to reinstall iTunes and now my iPad won't sync.

I tried to upgrade with 11.1.4 and everything go messed up (Windows 7 user). I ended up going back to a later version of data on my computer. Then I was able to reinstall iTunes. My iPhone is syncing like it should, but my iPad won't sync. I've lost the App Sore icon and others. Not sure what to do. I refreshed my iPad but nothing is working.

attach a screenshot of the error unless that's all of the error message.

My ipad won't sync with itunes, can anyone help

My ipod tpuch and ipad won't sync with itunes even though they are recognised by my comuter. i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes but still won't sync. How can i get my equipment to sync with itunes?

It has been shown there are problems with the latest update of iTunes and Windows computers. What you need to do is remove and reinstall iTunes, and make sure that you follow the steps in this support document exactly. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923. If you do not follow them exactly, you will just compound your problems. Once you do this, you should have no trouble having the phone recognized in iTunes.

My ipad won't sync photos, need help please

my ipad won't sync photos anymore, anyone out there can help

You could try clearing the photo cache.
You could also try a reset of the iPad and see if photos sync after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type. Why does it reject some and accept others?

The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type. Why does it reject some and accept others?

Hi there. I'm having the same problem: my iPad won't import some photos from a folder, saying that they can't be read. They are all JPEGS and some photos taken at the same time have synched fine, but out of a folder with 200 photos, it only lets me synch 37. I'm synching albums created via Photoshop Elements 6, which has worked fine until now.
I've tried deleting all photos and re-synching, and have also deleted the iPod Photo Cache, but it hasn't made a difference.
The iPad auto-updated to the latest version of iTunes, so maybe that's what's causing it?
Any advice gratefully received!

How can I buy more iCloud space when my ipad won't sync and has jammed

How can I buy more icloud space when my ipad won't sync and has jammed. I cannot press settings or close and cannot even turn off?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

Had to reset Ipad to factory settings, now Ipad won't sync to Itunes and apps that aren't factory installed will not open. Is there anything I can do?

Hi,
I hope someone can help. There was something wrong with my Ipad so I had to reset it back to the factory settings. Now the Ipad won't sync to Itunes and only factory installed apps will open. Does this mean that this Ipad is DOA and it is time for a new one? Or is there anything else I can do? It is a 1st generation Ipad.
Thanks for the help in advance.

if all that does not work you can always try to do a recovery mode restore back to factory settings and then set it up as a new device then try to redownlaod every thing again

My iPad won't sync my iCloud documents

My iPad won't sync my iCloud documents,neither will my computer, and I have everything checked and updated. From the "Document and Sharing" box to the password being rewritten a thousand times. I also have space in my iCloud memory. What to do? URGENT

Hello Modean,
It sounds like you have deleted and re added the iCloud account to your iPad but none of the iCloud content will sync to this one device. I have a few things to recommend for you. First, delete the iCloud account again from Settings > iCloud. Then close all the apps on the iPad:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
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.
When you have done that, reset the network settings on your iPad then retest the issue:
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
From: iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:

My mini iPad won't sync to laptop. Says needs update, but can't figure out where to update it.

My mini iPad won't sync to my laptop, also a Mac. When I plug it in it says it needs to be updated, but I can't figure it out.

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
If that doesn't help post back with more specifics on what is happening. Describe any error messages you get.
