Ipad wont sync to iTunes on Macbook Pro

my dad just updated his ipad to IOS 7, and now it will not sync with his iTunes account on his Macbook Pro. Whenever he plugs it in, he gets the same message
"The iPad cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 11.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
When he updated his software, wouldn't that have updated his iTunes? Is anyone else having this issue? Is it a glitch with the new software?

back up the device to icloud. Here is how to do that http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519?viewlocale=en_US
Then you are going to place the device in recovery mode. Here is how http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Hope this works

Ipad air sync to iTunes on MacBook Pro

I have an ipad air and every time I try to sync to my mac the sync gets to the final stage and freezes saying cancelling. The ipad appears to have finished the sync other than the photos which still say syncing and not all photos are on the ipad. I've tried the iCloud backup and disconnecting find my ipad. Any ideas?

Rebooti the MacBook Pro and reset the iPad by 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 and you are sure you have enough storage room on your iPad for the photos start searching for a corrupted photo.
Deselect all photos then do another sync. If that completes normally start syncing one album back at a time until you find the album with the bad photo.

Is the device being recognized in iTunes? Does iTunes "see" the iPad? If iTunes sees the iPad - I agree with the above post but take it a bit further, quit iTunes, restart your computer, restart the iPad and then try again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

IPhone 4 and iPad wont sync with iTunes

I bought a mac mini a few months ago to replace my powerbook (don't need it anymore). All of the files transfered fine but iTunes will not allow me to sync my iPhone 4 or iPad. When I try to transfer files or sync in anyway, iTunes prompts me with "This computer is no longer authorized...." etc, so, I click on Authorize, enter my credentials and it says "This computer is already authorized". I click OK and it again says "This computer is no longer authorized....". This puts me in a never ending cycle of trying to authorize the computer and I can't seem to bypass it.
I put this off for quite a while as it wasn't really impacting anything, but now it is and I need to get this resolved. Any hints, tips, fixes etc would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Did you ever get a fix to this? The same thing just happened to me too....

Ipad wont sync with itunes 10.3.1

Hi,
I recently updated iTunes to 10.3.1. I then went to sync my iPad2 and it kept failing when syncing some audio books. Some error about disc not available I think.
This then made all the videos and music disappear from the iPad2 even though iTunes could still "see" it and the space was still taken. After searching for answers I kept trying to sync but the content never reappeared back on the iPad2.
I figured I would reset it so I did. iTunes then tried to restore it and that seemed ok, the Apps recopied but the content failed! To get a suceessful sync I turned off syncing of anything but Apps. This seemed to go ok but when it finished it told me that there had been 25 errors and pretty much all the Apps had failed to copy!
I can redownload them all over WiFi but now I'm worried that I'll not be able to copy ANY content to my iPad. I also will not sync my iPhone until it's the problems are resolved with th iPad.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Also some recently added photos were corrupted when synced to the iPad2...

All my content is on a mapped network drive (RAID-ed).
Up until now it's been fine. I've done a few quick tests to see if there's a problem and it all seems ok.
The message I get seems to imply it's the iPad2 that can't be found rather than the content...
Could it have picked up a memory issue...? Are there diagnostics to run on the device (iPad2) itself

Apps on iPad wont sync with iTunes

Since a few weeks apps I bought on my iPad will no longer be copied to my PC when I connect with iTunes.
When I synchronise iTunes says it copying the apps to my PC (the names appear I in the informationwindow), but they don't appear in the Library/Apps afterwards, nor in the Apps-tab under iPad. Neither do I get any errors-messages
I tried:
1. Selecting "Transfer purchases ..." from the menu
2. Clicked the button "Synchronise" in the "Apps"-tab
3. In the apps-store of iTunes rebought a (free) app that I previously bought on my iPad and wouldn't appear in iTunes
4. Removed the "iTunes" folder in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer" and resynchronised
5. In "Preferences" reset the "Synchronisation history"
Anybody any idea what is going wrong? Anything else I can try?

It should transfer the content when you sync. As long as you are signed into the correct iTunes/Apple ID on the computer as you are signed into on the iPad, the purchases should transfer.
Try to transfer the purchases manually.

If you don't see the sidebar in iTunes, from the menu at the top of the screen, go to View>Show Sidebar.

HT1386 selected itunes on macbook pro will not sync to iPad

selected itunes on macbook pro will not sync to ipad

Might there be an ownership issue --- such as:
Might the tunes that do not sync to the iPad have been purchased using a different Apple ID and password than are either used on the iPad or authorized on the computer's iTunes?
Remember, purchased music is protected. It cannot be indiscriminately shared.

I have the 2nd Gen iPad and imported my photos from my computer to my iPad awhile back. Now I'd like to sync it to new MacBook Pro and my albums are not showing up? Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi - I'm trying to sync iBooks on my Macbook Pro with iBooks running on my iPad. I have some pdf's download from the net I want to share between devices and I can't work out how to sync the two devices. Any help please? I'm running Mavericks

Thanks for your help Brij011 - much appreciated. Apologies as I'm a newbie but I've looked at the info for synching and I appear to have all the switches flicked on my iPad. Does the iPad and iBooks only sync in iCloud for purchases as I appear to be doing something wrong. I could sync ok when books was in iTunes but since migrating to Mavericks I think I'm doing something wrong!!
