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.

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

If you are talking about the passcode that gains access to the iPad - you will have to restore your iPad in order to unlock it. You will want to use the last computer that you synced with so that you can recover all of your app data, settings, etc. this explains how to restore the iPad. At the end of the process restore from your backup as described.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If iTunes will not let you restore that way, you may need to use recovery mode to restore, and you can read about that process here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
IF - you are talking about a restrictions pass code that you put on the device to restrict content or downloading apps or something like that - you do not want to restore from the backup - because that backup will contain the passcode that you cannot remember and you will end up where you started.

My iPad wont sync to my computer but will sync to other computers.

Like the title says, my iPad wont sync to my computer but will sync to my bother's mac and my windows laptop.

First off, an iPad is designed to sync with only one computer. Syncing with a second computer erases everything synced from the first computer.
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What happens when you try and what, if any, error messages do you receive? Do you have iTunes 11.1 or later on the computer you want to sync with?

I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

What fixed it for me:
On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
Uncheck "Sync Music"
Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
Let it run and finish
Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
Let it run and finish
Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
Let it run and finish
See if that doesn't work for you. I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

The ipad wont sync and will return an error "Ipad cannot sync because the computer is no longer authorized to transfer the purchases..." But when I do a file devices transfer purchases.

The ipad wont sync and will return an error "Ipad cannot sync because the computer is no longer authorized to transfer the purchases..." But when I do a file>devices>transfer purchases. It is successful. Updated to ios7 recently. I'm facing the problem since then. I've tried deauthorizing and then authorizing several times.

Thanks Gail but ive tried that as well as logging oht and back into my accounts on my iphone and mac but I still get that message. I actually found a solution by unckecking my synced music playlist and clicking sync to remove it and then reclicked on my playlist to sync and it actually synced notmally and I got all of my new songs so I wanted to test it again so I clicked on sync again and the message once again popped up until I did the un-syncing and re-syncing again. I guess I will keep doing that in the future even though its annoying but its better than resetting my iphone.

Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread.
