Lost iPad and iTunes account?

How do I delete the missing iPad from my iTunes account? My only concern right how, since the chances of it turning up is slim, is that they don't use my account to purchase anything. I've browsed though the forums and it says pretty much that I can unauthorize the device if it's with me.

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

You can only buy from the UK iTunes Store, and per the Terms of Use for the UK Store, you agree not to attempt to use it from outside of the UK. Apple may take technological steps to prevent such use, though I've never seen any reliable indication that they do so.

This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

Commercial software utility for transferring songs from i-device to Mac - http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - just media purchased from iTunes Store
You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that. iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

Is there a way to stop sharing apps between my iphone and my daughters ipad. We share the same email and itunes account.

You can keep the same Apple ID for purchases, but set up her own iCloud account for email and syncing.
You can easily and effectively use the same ID for purchases.
What you do is use the apple ID you have been using for app/book/movie/music purchases. In Settings > Store, make sure you are using your usual apple ID.
Then, set up an icloud (@me.com) account for you on your phone, and one for your daughter on her phone. In Settings > iCloud, make sure each of you are using your new iCloud accounts, and not your Apple ID.
Also, in Settings > Messages > Receive At, make sure you are using your iCloud accounts
This way, all of your purchases are using one account, and you can effectively use iCloud.

Lost iPad and want to get all apps shut down

Lost iPad and need to get it shut down. What to do?

If you had "Find My iPhone" enabled in Settings > iCloud then you may be able to locate it. If not, you cannot locate it.
If it was enabled then you can try locating it via http://icloud.com on a computer or the App "Find My iPhone" on another iDevice. You can also tell your iPhone to "Play Sound", enter "Lost Mode", or "Erase".
Note: this will only work if your device is connected to a network and the device hasn't already been restored as new and/or "Find My iPhone" has not been disabled on it. Note: Disabling "Find My iPhone" is much more difficult in iOS 7.
If you think that your device was stolen rather than lost then you should report it to the police. In either case you should contact your carrier, change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

Differences in "storage used" between iPad and iTunes

I have an iPad Mini 2 and there a differences between the stated "storage used" between the iPad and iTunes.
Looking in the general settings "Storage" it states I have used 113GB and available is 413MB.
Looking on iTunes, when the iPad is connected, it states I have 67.20GB free.
Which is correct and what causes the problem?
How is it fixed if it is because the iPad has a fault?
Many thanks.

It is now a couple of weeks and noticed the discrepancy occurring again. I did not want to go through the above process again because it took about 4 hours to get my iPad up, running again and normal.
Again, there was a difference in memory by about 20GB.
This time it tried something different.
1) Went into General settings on iPad and managed memory. From here I removed all films and TV episodes. Now Video memory was zero.
2) Switched off WiFi. When I opened the Video app, I noticed a pile of films and TV episodes showing, even though they had the cloud icon. They could even be watched. I deleted these films/episodes.
3) Viewed the iPad memory using iTunes on laptop and compared to iPad general settings usage (video memory negligible). Both numbers pretty much spot on.
My musings - I can only assume that the iPad does not properly delete films/episodes that I had previously watched. It is evidently holding on to the video, even though I had deleted them and they were not showing in general settings. Though it is a hassle, I at least now how to find where the "lost" memory is and how to reclaim it.

Two ipads one itunes account

Old story, heard many times before I'm sure...two ipads, one itunes account. How do I set it up so one ipad is not always syncing the other's data etc?

You select the exact content that you want to sync to each device. You can use one iTunes account with 6 iPads. You just have to set your sync preferences the way that you want them to be set for each device.
Using apps as the example....
Sync with iTunes.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Click on all of the apps that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Apps Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
You do the same thing in every tab in iTunes. Select the content that you want to sync to that particular iPad and iTunes will remember the configuration the next time that you sync.

Home sharing only allows you to stream content from a computer's iTunes to an iOS device or another computer (and to copy from the computer to another computer), you can't use it to copy items to an iOS device.
If the apps are still in your country's store then you should be able to redownload them on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it, and for music (if you are in a country where music purchases can be redownloaded and they are still in the store) then you can redownload them via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPad. Or you can copy them from your iPod to your computer's iTunes library by connecting it and using the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option and then sync them to your iPad.

HT1727 I bought a new computer that I wish to be the primary computer for my iPhone, iPad and iTunes. I cannot sync my apple products to the new computer.

I bought a new computer because my other computer was failing. I want to link my iPhone, iPad and iTunes to this computer. I transferred my iTunes library to the new computer files but don't know how to put them INTO the iTunes library that I have set up on the new computer.
I tried linking my iPhone to the new computer and it will not hook up.

Hi Don ...
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

Can you sync two 4S iPhones to one PC and iTunes account?

Can you sync two 4S iPhones to one PC and iTunes account?

No you don't. You log into iTunes with your Apple ID but you can use one Apple ID for iTunes and a different Apple ID for iCloud. On your device go:
Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and sign in with a new Apple ID
This will only change the Apple ID for iCloud and both devices will continue to download apps and backup to the shared iTunes account.
