Is there a way of swapping all data over from one ipad to another ipad and vice verse?

Another family member and I both have iPad 3, they have with 3g and mine just wifi. We are discussing swapping so I can have the 3g feature as its more useful for me. Is there a way of swapping all their data to my ipad and my data to their ipad so it is a straight swap?

What you want to do would be no different that restoring your current content to a brand new iPad. You should both do as described below and then erase your respective devices and make the swap.
First ... and you both want to do this.... Transfer purchases from your iPad into iTunes on your computer, backup the iPad and then sync with iTunes.
These two articles will explain how to do that.

How to backup and restore from a backup

You may want to import photos from the device to your computer as well so that you can sync them back at a later time. Your camera roll photos are stored in the backup, but it never hurts to be proactive.
Read about importing photos here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
After you have transferred purchases, backed up and transferred photos, you can erase your iPad before you swap devices. Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That will completely wipe your devices.
Now you can swap and you will both be starting from scratch like you did when the iPad was new.
When you re-activate the new iPad, the one you are getting from your family member - toward the end of the activation process you will be given the opportunity to restore from an iCloud or iTunes backup. You want to select the iTunes option. So you will have to connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and restore from the backup and then sync with iTunes.
Restoring from the backup will recover all of you app data and settings, syncing with iTunes will recover all of your apps, books, photos, music and other media

    Is there a way of drawing a straight line from one point to another please?

    Yes.  First click on this icon:
    Now select the line drawing icon:
    Now press a shift key and drag your mouse on the image to draw a straight line.
    These instructions are for Windows system so you need to adapt the method for Macs.  I can't afford to by an Apple Mac!!!!!
    Good luck.

  • I redeemed a giftcard in one of my accounts, and realized I wanted to redeem it in another. Is there a way I can transfer the money from one account to another, without being billed to my credit card?

    I redeemed a giftcard in one account and realized I wanted to use it in another. Is there a way I can transfer the money from one account to the other without billing my credit card?

    You can't transfer money between accounts.  You can, however, gift items by clicking the arrow to the right of the price, which will achieve the same ends.  It should work for everything except rentals.

  • Is there a way to reference a private variable from one class in another?

    My first class starts off by declaring variables like so:
    class tStudent {
      // declare student name, id, grades 1 & 2, and gpa
      private String fname, lname, g1, g2;
      private int id;
      private double gpa;
      // define a constructor for a new student
      tStudent () {fname=lname=g1=g2=null; id=-1; gpa=0.0;}
      // define methods for manipulating the data members.
      // readStudent: reads information for just one student
    public void read (Scanner input) {
          fname = input.next();
          lname = input.next();
          id = input.nextInt();
          g1 = input.next();
          g2 = input.next();
    }And the second class:// tStudentList: for a list of students
    class tStudentList {
      private int nStudents;
      private tStudent[] list;
      // constructor for creating student list
      tStudentList() {
          list = new tStudent[36];
          for (int i=0; i < 36; i++) list=new tStudent();
    // read the individual students into the student list
    public void read(Scanner scan) {
    nStudents=0;
    while (scan.hasNext()) {list[nStudents++].read(scan);}
    // display the list of all students - fname, lname, id, g1, g2 and gpa
    // with an appropriate header so the output matches my sample //output
    public void print() {
    Is there a way to reference the variables in the first class to use in the second? Specifically in the last section of code where I am going to print the list.

    Not without resorting to reflection hackery. If the fields are private (and are supposed to be), then that means "don't allow access to these to outsiders of this class" by design.
    So if you really meant them to be accessible, then don't use private, or provide public accessors for them.

  • Can you transfer all your content from one computer to another?

    We have a slower computer and a faster one and all our music and apps are on the slower one.  Is there any way to transfer all our stuff from one to the other?

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Is there any way too see all data on all enteties an user owns.

    Hi all,
    Is there any way to see all data an user owns in CRM2011?
    Maybe an custom report or view?

    I could only think of one solution to this, a little bit of code to get a list of records a user owns. The List contains Entity objects with the Id & LogicalName. You could do this with a report too but you'll have to query every entity...
    public List<Entity> GetOwningRecords(IOrganizationService service, Guid systemUserId)
    List<Entity> owningRecords = new List<Entity>();
    RetrieveAllEntitiesRequest retrieveAllEntitiesRequest = new RetrieveAllEntitiesRequest();
    retrieveAllEntitiesRequest.EntityFilters = EntityFilters.Entity;
    retrieveAllEntitiesRequest.RetrieveAsIfPublished = true;
    RetrieveAllEntitiesResponse retrieveAllEntitiesResponse = (RetrieveAllEntitiesResponse)service.Execute(retrieveAllEntitiesRequest);
    foreach (EntityMetadata entityMetadata in retrieveAllEntitiesResponse.EntityMetadata)
    if (entityMetadata.OwnershipType != OwnershipTypes.UserOwned)
    continue;
    try
    QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression(entityMetadata.LogicalName)
    ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("ownerid"),
    Criteria =
    Conditions =
    new ConditionExpression("ownerid",ConditionOperator.Equal, systemUserId)
    EntityCollection result = service.RetrieveMultiple(query);
    foreach (Entity entity in result.Entities)
    owningRecords.Add(entity);
    catch (FaultException<OrganizationServiceFault>)
    Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Couldn't retrieve the records for {0}", entityMetadata.LogicalName));
    catch (Exception)
    Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Unexpected error for {0}", entityMetadata.LogicalName));
    return owningRecords;
    Hope this helps

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Thanks for your answer. I was hoping for an easier answer. Too bad there is no drag and drop solution, it would have been much easier.

    You can, but only the purchases that were made from the iTunes Store. Other content that was imported from a CD or other sources will not transfer over.
