My iPad will no longer sync with my mac. My iPhone and iPod are connecting fine. Please help
The connection is working because the ipad will still charge but it will not sync.
Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable? Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

IPad will no longer sync with iPhone when using iMessages
I'm not sure what happened but my iPad no longer syncing iMessages with my iPhone. All have been signed in with Apple ID, all have the same telephone number and email address selected. I'm at loss what to do. Any suggestions?
I am having the same issue with my ipad 3 with retina display and my iphone 5 (both iOS 8.1.2). Text messages received on my iphone will be forwarded to my ipad, however imessages will not. Also, some contacts that i can Imessage on my iphone (blue contacts) show up as grey, red or green on my ipad and it wont allow me to imessage them anymore.
I have tired all of the apple support remedies to no avail, including a full reset of both devices. No luck yet. I hope someone can figure this out for both our sakes. -
This problem developed in mid December. the synching worked perfectly on my 18 month old iPad 2 until then. Now the iPad will not sink my calendar, contacts and notes from my desktop Outlook program. It does seem to sync my pictures. the wireless keyboard had no problem recognizing the iPad until mid-December. I tried to reset the iPad by pressing the on off and home button concurrently. The iPad logo appeared but the iPad did not reset. Instead, my full configuration on the iPad along with all of my apps simply reappeared. I am at a loss as to what happened and what to do about it.
Your post indicates iOS 4.3 which is now quite old. I am going to suggest restoring your iPad, which, among other things, will update your iOS to the current version.
I recommend restoring your iPad. Make sure you have the current version of iTunes on your computer (currently 11.0.1). Plug your iPad into your computer, let it sync, then press "Restore" on the right side when the summary page of the iPad is displayed in iTuens' display. -

My Ipod Classic will no longer sync with my MAC.
The message says that for it to sync with the new library, it will have to remove the old one. I don't want to loose my songs, and don't know what to do! It shows that I've purchased the songs on my itunes library, but it doesn't show on my ipod classic!
Syncing is iTunes keeping your iTunes library (or a defined portion of the iTunes library) "in sync" (the same as) the library on your iPod. And iTunes syncing of content generally goes in one direction only, from iTunes library on computer to the iPod. That's why, if you want to sync it to a NEW iTunes library, iTunes is warning you that the existing library on the iPod will be replaced.
So, you cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library. Once your iTunes library is consolidated with ALL of your songs, you can sync your iPod to it.
NOTE: If you have songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store on the iPod, you can re-download them at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen. The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS. -

BB Desktop Manager will no longer sync with BB Torch
My Torch will no longer sync with my desktop. BB Desktop software shows "Connecting " but this message stays on and does not change and it never connects. Never had any trouble before. I've reinstalled BB Desktop Manager but still have same issue.
The day prior to me noticing this problem I disconnected my torch during a desktop software backup, which is what I suspect is the cause of this problem, but cannot seem to fix it. Any thoughts on how to remedy?Your post indicates iOS 4.3 which is now quite old. I am going to suggest restoring your iPad, which, among other things, will update your iOS to the current version.

My iPad 2 will no longer Sync with iTunes on my computer. It tells me to Restore which I don't want to do as I may lose valuable information from my iPad. My wife's iPad 2 and my ipod still Sync OK. How can I overcome this?
Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard. -
My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.
My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes. it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted. Any suggestions?
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Then try restoring again. -

iCal will no longer sync with wife's mac mini. It works with our iPhone, iPod and and older G5 tower. I am using an iMac. Nothing shows up on the mobile me calendar in her office. I have been unable to get the shared calendar to open on her machine. All had been well until yesterday.
Thanks for any help.I did restore from back-up as well. And I had thought of restoring my iPod to factory settings however...I just got my mother-in-law's old iPhone 3GS. Upon getting it from her I restored it to factory settings. After having the problems tonight syncing my iPod to iTunes I tried syncing the iPhone. It started out fine, showing it as a new device and setting it up. It shows both devices on my iTunes and then when I went to sync it I got the error message that none of the songs could be copied from my iTunes because they could not be found. But they all clearly show up in my iTunes. I had done this before when I was having the issue with my books and then I had deleted them all from iTunes and readded a few that I wanted to put on my iPod and it still wouldn't sync them. So I really don't want to take absolutely everything off my iPod and restore it to factory only to be unable to add anything from my iTunes ever again as is the case with the iPhone.

My podcasts will no longer sync with my ipod classic. Also when I tried to sync in itunes, the category "podcast" disappeared under my ipod listed in itunes.
Are you sure your iPod Classic is configured to sync podcasts to your device? You'll want to double check by taking a quick look at your iPod's Podcast configuration tab in iTunes.
To access this tab, plug your iPod in and click on it from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes when it appears to bring yourself to the iPod's Summary tab. Now locate the Podcasts tab and select it. Under this tab you can configure how and what podcasts are synced to your device. If you make any changes, be sure to click theApply button in the lower right hand corner.
