IPod to iPad Mini via iTunes on a laptop.

iPod to iPad Mini via iTunes on a laptop.
My wife has an iPod
80 GB
Serial 8M744BXQY5N
Model type MB 029
1.1.2.PC
Her iTunes account was on an old laptop long gone
She does not know what her old Apple ID details for her iPod are.
I have now bought her a mini iPad and we have a new laptop Windows 7
She has an Apple ID for her iPad.
How do we transfer her iPod music to a new iTunes account on the Laptop without losing it all? I am aware of the horror stories surrounding Apple on this issue. If so in ‘Janet and John’ how do we do it?
Can we just sync the iPod to the laptop? Using her new Apple ID?
Be very grateful for any help and advice on this
Thanks Ernie

More than likely, your laptops do not have the high power USB ports necessary to charge an iPad. They will charge the iPad, but incredibly slowly. In fact, if the screen comes on, it draws too much power and causes the not charging message to show.
Your best bet is to sync with the computer, then use the provided power adaptor to charge the iPad from a wall outlet.

I have same Apple ID for iPhone iPad and my daughters iPod and iPad mini. Can I obtain another iCloud account for her without changing her Apple ID. She had a iCloud account on old iPod bit can't retrieve it.

Me and my daughter have same Apple ID for my iPhone iPad and her iPod and iPad mini. Is there any way to get an iCloud account for her devices without changing her Apple ID. She has an old iCloud account from older iPod but can't activate it or remember her old iCloud account.
Thanks

You have to use a different Apple ID to create a new iCloud account (each ID can only be used with a single account). You don't have to use the ID for anything else though, she can continue to use her current ID for other services such as iTunes, iMessage, FaceTime, etc.
The only limitation is that each device can only create three iCloud accounts.

Cannot get PDF files to load on the iPad Mini from iTunes!

Cannot get PDF to load on the iPad Mini through iTunes (latest version). I could easily do this on the iPod Touch. So what is missing?

I solved my problem. It turns out the default in iTunes is NO Sync for books or podcasts. Once I turned that on I had success. That wording should be included in the explanation on how to transfer PDF files to the iPad.

I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

Hi Divine Inspiration,
You wouldn't connect the iPod to the iPad for data transfers. Music is stored and shared either through a computer or iCloud.
This article gives an overview of moving music and data off the iPad.

Can I view, edit and save microsoft documents such as Word, Excel and Powerpoint using iWork applications such as Pages, Keynote and Numbers on my iPad Mini (16GB Wi-Fi)? If Yes, then can I directly load these files to my iPad mini using iTunes?

If Yes, then can I directly load these files to my iPad mini using iTunes? Also, once I finish working on these documents, can I download these back to my Computer.

Sorry, forgot to say:
Thank you so much to EVERYBODY/ANYBODY who may reply with helpful information,

Video Podcasts Not Syncing From my iPad Mini to iTunes for Windows

Hello all. I have the iPad Mini, and recently have been downloading my Podcasts there.
It occurred to me that in case something happens to my iPad, I should have my Podcasts backed up to my computer. So, i downloaded iTunes for Windows on my computer. I plugged my iPad Mini into my computer and synced it, so that my Podcasts would sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library.
I noticed that all of my podcasts did sync, except for the 3 video podcasts I have. None of the video podcasts synced.
Anyone know how I can get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library?
Thank you in advance!

Just wanted to kick my question back up. to see if anyone had any idea how to get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to iTunes on my computer.
Audio podcasts seem to be syncing fine. Just the video podcasts are not.
Thanks.

iOS device backups are stored in your iTunes library.
Move your iTunes library to an external drive.

I would suggest that you buy a visa or mastercard gift card and put a few dollars on it and use it to access the store. Just add money to it before you want to buy something from the store and it will act like a normal credit card for you.

HT201269 I cannot restore my new ipad mini from itunes

When trying to set up new iPad mini from iTunes backup, it does not complete and starts back on the Set Up iPad screen.

Other than the Hotspot feautre, there is no way to connect iPad and iPhone through bluetooth, because there's nothing they can do when connected.
I am assuming what the person at the Apple Store showed you was the Hotspot feature, in which case you need to Turn on Hotspot, and then turn on Bluetooth.
