IPad wont sync with iPad

Hi
My iPad refuses to sync. iTunes tells me it's backing up, and the progress bar starts to move then after about 5-10 minutes the iPad turns itself off and back on again many times. I have to disconnect. I can restore the iPod and put it back to the last time it backed up; but then the next time I try to sync it it goes through this loop again. Any ideas?

Hi,
Don't backup from a restore. There's something in those files (most likely an app) that causing the problem.
Re sync again, sync as new but don't sync any apps, just the other content like music, photos, etc. If the iPad functions ok after the sync, then re sync 3 apps at a time until you find the culprit.
Go to iTunes / Preferences - Devices. Remove any backups there. When the iPad is stable, then create a backup.
Help here for backing up the iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414

ITunes 11.1.3 wont sync with iPad mini 7.0.4

Okay so I just recently tried to sync my iPad mini with my windows 7 laptop and it simply wont work. I have tried to uninstall the apple driver and reinstall it (didn't work). I reset all the settings on my iPad (didn't work). I tried to unselect "entire library" and then select specific playlists to sync (didn't work). My iTunes recognizes the iPad mini perfectly fine, even when I click on "on this ipad" the newer songs are displayed but when i check the actual iPad the new music is not on it. I would really prefer to avoid resetting the entire ipad because i do use it mainly for gaming and would hate to lose my save data. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks :-D
ps i have never had any issue this ipad before

only http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538. also check the lightning to usb cord.

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.

Ibook wont sync with ipad says it cannot locate information

Purchased an audio book on itunes.
Ipad crashed and restored to factory settings.
Didnt have ipad backed up to computer or icloud.
Purchased new laptop cannot down load audi book from itune account says information wasnt found.
Asks to locate but this starts a search on computer.
urchase is displayed in purchase history

You will need to try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a redownload of it - music is different, in a lot of countries you are able to redownload them (as long as the rights-holder doesn't remove them), but audiobooks are supplied to Apple by audible.com, and I assume that it's them that are requiring the one-time only download.
In terms of backing up you should copy any item that you download from the stores on your iPad (and whilst they are still on your iPad) over to your computer's iTunes library, which you can do via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option
You can then take your own back copy of them - you are only guaranteed one download of any item from the store, even for apps and music the rights-holder could remove them from the store at any time, so you shouldn't rely on being to redownload any item.
I backup to both the cloud and to my computer's iTunes, but it's personal choice.

Since upgrading to Maverick Ical wont sync on ipad and iphone 4

iCal (7.0) wont sync with iPad (7.1) or iPhone (7.1) since upgrading to Maverick (10.9.2). I noticed iTunes (11.1.5) no longer has the 'info' tab I used to go to for settings. How do I sync my Mac, iPad and iPhone with iCal and Address book?

For some of us, the additional problem is that once you give in and go iCloud, no rep will tell you there are iCloud limits on iCal's size, so that if you're calendar is say 10 years old, with 10 events per day, and there's a 25K event limit, it won't work, even if you buy all the storage in the world. Which means that's syncing is OVER.
So far I've tried three alt calendars: Fantastical (rated one of the top iCal alts); Pocket Informant (allegedly capable of superpowers); and Calendars. Not a single one is able to do the one simple task of
1) integrating an ical ics file,
2) placing a calendar program on the desktop and the iPhone
3) keeping them both in sync.
This is really getting to annoy me. Chelsea, a tech support supervisor, offered that if I pay $99/year I can become a developer and get the next beta iTunes which will allegedly offer local syncing. Great.

TS3999 My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone?

My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone? despite doing everything as per the support page. I keep on clicking the Add in but it wont "take"?
It use to, but no matter what I try nothing works. Using Windows 7. HELP!

This step is not clear:
"Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports. And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
Also, this step:
"Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account. And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
Thanks!

Some of my films wont sync with my ipad anymore. Any ideas?

Some of my films, all purchased through itunes, wont sync with my ipad anymore. Can someone help?

I get songs once in a while that are saved in a weird format of mp3 and won't convert properly to apple audio format. I turn those files into aifs first and then convert to apple audio. I don't know why but this seems to eliminate this problem for me when it pops up.

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

i created a password to my iPad as a parental restriction, but my daughter played with it and pushed the wrong password 10 times my ipad was disabled, what should i do, since it wont sync with itunes becoz it will just say, cannot sync files becoz the device is password enabled, Please somebody helpme

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.
