ITunes not up to date in iPad, but updated on mac

My hard drive on my Mac was just replaced, and when I plugged in my iPad, it said that it couldn't connect, as my iTunes is not up to date. My iTunes on the Mac is up to date. Did the update a couple of times, and still getting the same error. I went and looked online and it tells me what to do, but nothing has worked. Unsure where to go or what to do. Please help.

I did it directly, and clicked on the software update button, and there was nothing new to be updated.  It should be brand new as my hard drive was just replaced, but I did notice that the OS X wasn't on here, like on the old one. could that be the issue? and how would I find out how old the operating system is? The Mac as a whole is only a year old.
I went into my app store and looked at purchases, and am going to re-download OS X Lion on here, and maybe that will help??? still unsure and don't know.

  • I am trying to update to iTunes 10 to us my new iPad, but I can not remove a corrupted "apple software update" program... I can get everything else off, but due to "previous version" of software update it will not continue.

    I am trying to update to iTunes 10 to us my new iPad, but I can not remove a corrupted? "apple software update" program... I can get everything else off, but due to "previous version" of software update it will not continue.
    I stopped in to see one of the genius at the local store who referred me to "Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable" (I am trying to install it on a Windows XP System)
    The last version on iTunes on my PC was iTunes 7.
    Thanks for your help,

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • I have a PC.  I would like to sync my iPad2 via itunes.  My computer recognizes my iPad but itunes does not.  I have deleted the itunes program, shut down my computer and restarted and then reinstalled itunes.  I still have the same problem.  Suggestions?

    I have a PC.  I would like to sync my iPad2 via itunes.  My computer recognizes my ipad but itunes does not.  I have uninstalled itunes, shut down the computer and restarted plus reinstalled itunes.  I visited the Apple store there is no problem with the iPad or the cord. I still have the same problem and am unable to sync when I plug in the iPad via the USB cord.  Does anyone have further suggestions? 

    Try going into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTUnes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. Then redownload and reinstall iTunes and see if it'll work
    If the computer sees your iPad you know the cable and connection is good, so the issue has to be software.

  • Can I force iTunes not to embed custom album art, but store it separately?

    (I only use iTunes to manage my 16GB iPod nano 5th gen and update my mother's iPad.)
    Now as far as I am aware, when iTunes downloads album art, it stores it separately from the audio files, and thus several tracks share the same image file for their artwork. This seems economical to me, considering the space limitations that most Apple devices have.
    But if you set your custom album art, iTunes embeds it into the audio files themselves, so each has a copy of the artwork, and thus the total size of artwork increases about tenfold. Now this is okay when storing the audio files on personal computers, but is quite stupid for devices with limited storage capacities. It really depends on the size of the artwork and the bitrate your audio is encoded to, but I calculated I could put an extra 300MB of music onto my iPod if I could just somehow force iTunes to store my custom album art separately, not embed it into the audio files by default.
    Does anybody have an answer/solution to this problem, or do I have to look beyond iTunes to do this?
    Thanks!
    (Note that I do not wish to use the iTunes download artwork service, as it is quite unreliable and the artwork is of low quality.)

  • My iTunes asking password from backup my iPad,but

    My iTunes asking password from backup my iPad,but i don't know passworad.

    Hi Denis_Chumichev,
    If you have encrypted your iTunes backup, please keep trying to remember your password.
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    Warning: Make sure it's a password that you'll remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and choose set up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.
    Take care,
    Nubz

  • Could not activate cellular data in iPad

    Could not activate cellular data in iPad

    I found that mobile data stopped working on my iPad once upgraded to IOS 5.1. I have resolved the problem by re-applying the settings in Settings > Cellular Data > APN Settings which had (very bizarrely) been over-written as a result of the upgrade process.
    Clearly your APN settings will be specific to your data plan, but if you contact your contract provider, they should be able to tell you what they are.
    Hope this helps.

  • I can not get any updates and therefor not use Java as it only run updates for Mac 10.7. and later? How do i get the updates to install and use Java?

    I can not get ny updates and therefore not use Java, as it only run updates for MAC 10.7. and later. How do i get the updates to install and use JAVA ?

    In Snow Leopard you update Java from Software Update (in the Apple menu). You can check your version by opening Terminal and typing
    java -version
    (don't get creative and type anything else)
    The latest version is 1.6.0_65.

  • HT1430 dueing the  update ios7 7.0.2 ipad can not open. They show the message is correct the itunes. I back the house and correct the itunes and get the recover the ipad but unsucessful. now the ipad is unavaible to start. pls help

    dueing the update IOS 7 7.0.2, ipad show the message is contact the itunes, when I back the house, ipad contact the PC and itunes for recovery the ipad but unsuccessful. Now ipad is not start.please help

    I hope this helps. If I understood your question properly, it is the same or similar problem many, including myself, had with the IOS7 update. I'll relay my situation & what I did to rectify it.  I have the iPad2 & MACBook Pro. I have an iPhone 5 but won't be updating it.
    IF YOU HAVEN'T YET UPDATED YOUR iPAD TO IOS 7... DON'T. NOT UNTIL YOU'RE CERTAIN YOU HAVE BACKED UP YOUR iPAD, AT LEAST. BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN YOU HAVE BACKED UP YOUR DEVICE.
    FIRST: BACK UP YOUR IPAD, & ALL YOUR DEVICES.
    NEXT: CHECK FOR UPDATES ON ALL DEVICES.
    I updated my iPad while away from my main wifi connection because using my main wifi for the last update subsequently interfered with my connection thereafter. New problem now.
    1.) Once I updated (was it successful/unsuccessful?) Because...
    My iPad showed a large apple with a line underneath; then it illustrated & said, "connect to iTunes." i can't accessa thing. (Huh? Doesn't Apple know people TRAVEL FAR away from their MAC with their iPads? I WAS RUDELY LEFT WITH AN INOP DEVICE on the road.)
    2.) On my MAC: I checked for all updates, & ensured my iTunes was updated.
    3.) I followed thre following instructions from a website (http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/ios-7-problems/) I found when researching this common problem. iPhone... iPad... same instructions...
    ...connect to iTunes and try DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode.
    Potential solution:
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button to turn your iPhone off.
    Open iTunes on your computer and connect your iPhone.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for ten seconds, and then release the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue to hold down the Home button until you see a pop-up on iTunes stating that “iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes.”
    Your iPhone screen should be blank, if you see a logo or message on it then you are not in DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode.
    Select your iPhone in the left hand column of iTunes and select Summary then Restore.
    You may need to install the iOS 7 update again.
    ------------------ THIS WORKED.
    I followed the instruction & so far so good. DO NOT DISCONNECT YOUR iPAD! It will continue to prompt you through SEVERAL items, including the re-installation of one of your previous back-ups. It appears the back-up was successful & that everything is now back to normal.
    Except that now I'm stuck with the juvenile appearance of this new IOS. My Notepad no longer looks like a notepad. Why don't I just type on DOS? My APPLE easthetice have disappeared. If I can, I will revert to IOS 6.

  • I have Icloud through Itunes and Purchased Icloud on my Ipad but when I Sync my my Ipad with my Itunes account it downlods my music directly to my Ipad Hard drive and it's taken up all my available memory storage. How can I load my ituse in Icloud

    I have an Iclouds account through Itunes and also I paid to have and an Icloud account on my Ipad but when I sync my Itunes music it's not being stored in the Icloud but directly on my Ipad haard drive. I like to know what do I have to do to correct this problem.

    Hey jousley33,
    I see that you wish to have your music stored remotely and be able to access it via streaming on your iPad. This is a feature of the service called iTunes Match:
    Apple - iTunes - iTunes Match
    https://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
    You may also be able to access the music that you have purchased through the iTunes Store remotely:

  • HT1349 How do I go about installing software from a disc onto my ipad2? I have no external drive, but do have a PC with iTunes on it. Someone suggested I could load it into iTunes and then sync with the iPad, but this suggestion doesn't seem to work.

    How do I go about installing software from a disc (a language programme) onto my ipad2? Someone told me if I downloaded it to iTunes on my PC I could then sync it to the iPad but hav not been able to do that.

    Even if there was a convenient way, the software will not run on the pad.  Ios is a unique language, and only programs written for ios will run on the pad.   All of the programs are in the app store.  You might look there and see if the company that makes your sfotware also has an ios version, which would be in the store.

    Your iPad is not a cellular telephone.  It is not capable of sending or receiving SMS or MMS messages (except when used in conjunction with your iPhone using handoff).
    Your iPhone can send and receive iMessages to/from other Apple devices when they (and you) are connected to WiFi or a cellular carrier that supports iMessage.
