My iPad will not associate with iTunes, I reinstall and still get prompted to open iPad in Word, Camera or Scanner

Do i need to change my windows file association?  What is the extension?

Have you selected the content to sync to your iPad in your sync settings in iTunes. The content that you want to transfer must be selected (checked or "ticked") to sync out will not transfer when you sync.
For instance - if you want to sync music....
Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Music Tab on the right.
Click on the albums or playlists that you want to sync - or the entire library if you like.
Click on the Sync Music Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
This applies to all content that you want to transfer from iTunes to your iPad. Make the selections in the appropriate tabs in the iTunes window on the right.

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

    My new iPad will not sync with itunes. itunes is updated to latest version. Do I need to uninstall itunes and reinstall?

    That could be a solution. Are you getting any error messages or error codes? Is the iPad recognized in iTunes? Does anything happen at all when you try to Sync? Can you provide more details?
    You can try a very simple first step, quit iTunes, reboot your PC and restart the iPad.

    Do you have the absolute latest version of iTunes downloaded?  If your iTunes software has not been updated in some time, your iPad will not be recognized.  With iTunes open, click on Store at the top.  Check for available downloads and if there are any, download them.  Once you've verified you have the latest software, connect your device again, and it should be recognized.

  • My ipad will not sync with all my music and films in my itunes library. I have just carried out a restart and sync again but still not showing all my music or films.

  • My first generation iPad will not synchronize with iTunes

    I haven't synchronized my iPad to iTunes for a while and when I plug it in to my iMac it just never connects.  Does anyone know of an issue may cause this or a solution?  My mac is running 10.8.5 with the latest version of iTunes and the iPad is running iOS 5.1.1.

    Hello wga,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the iPad is not seen in iTunes and will not sync.
    I recommend taking a look at this article to help troubleshoot this issue named:
    iPad not appearing in iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/
    Here is step one to get you started:
    Update iTunes
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. To check for available updates of iTunes on a Mac, go to iTunes > Check for Updates. On Windows, go to Help > Check for Updates.
    To install iTunes, you need one of the following operating systems on your computer:
    Mac: OS X version 10.6 or later
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    Note: If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7, be sure to download the 64-bit version of iTunes.
    If your computer does not meet these requirements, you may need to upgrade your software or computer before installing iTunes.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • IPad will not sync with iTunes/DL from iTunes Match

    I have just purchased an iPad with retina display and it will not allow me to download tv shows or music which i have on my itunes, either by syncing on itunes via my Mac or by using itunes match.  It has however allowed me to purchase Pages and has no problem with getting previously saved documents from icloud.
    I checked all settings are correct but it still wont allow me to sync. It has become very frustrating.  I also downloaded the Ipad Metro app but that seems to have disappeared from the screen but will open in the app store.
    Would peple recommend resetting the ipad and starting over or is there a less drastic option?

    iTunes Match is for music only, not TV Shows or Movies. iTunes in the cloud lets you download previously purchased content to your iDevice. As long as you use the same ID that you bought the content wih, you should be able to download that content again in the purchased tab of iTunes.
    If you are using iTunes Match on the iPad, I think that you have to turn it off in order to sync with iTunes on your computer.

    As for the app that is not appearing on the iPad, open it from the App Store and then close it in the recents tray. Reboot the iPad and see if it appears on the device. I assume that you have swiped from screen to screen to look for it already.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Ipad will not sync with iTunes to load new picture

    i am having problems with my ipad as it will start the sync but then it says not able to sycn, i just updated the software and that went fine. i am sure what to do from here

    Your first question makes it sound like you are trying to add new photos to the iPad and the sync will not complete. Can you sync the iPad without syncing the photos to the iPad?
    Sometimes it helps to delete the iPod Photo Cache folder if you have issues syncing photos. If that is the problem that you are having, delete the iPod Photo Cache folder and then try to sync again.

  • IPad will not sync with iTunes in Windows

    My ipad will no longer sync with iTunes (iOS5 was downloaded). iTunes shows my iPad as having content and I can sync, but when I disconnect iPad, nothing appears on my iPad. If I set up as a new iPad, can I still then access everything I have in iTunes?

    You should, yes. The iTUnes content is governed by the apple id, not the device(s). I had my iPad die on me and got a new one and just set it up as a backup and it sync'd all my old apps and my new one looked exactly like my old one.
    So I believe if you set it up as a  new one, you will have to put everything back on the ipad, but your apps will still be there in iTunes.

  • My ipad will not sync with itunes. nothing shows up

    when I plug my ipad 1 to my computer it will not sync. I would like to add my music collection to it. supposed to find it under devices, but there is not such link on my screen.  doesn't sync automatically.

    On occasion, iTunes will not recognize my iPad so what I do is quit iTunes, restart the iPad and reboot my Mac and it will appear after that. You could try that first, and if you still have no success, start with this support article from Apple.

    Try changing USB ports on your PC and make sure that you use a port on the computer - do not use a hub or a port on the monitor.

  • My iPod Touch and iPad will not sync with iTunes, Windows crashes

    I have done the latest upgrade on software for itunes, upgraded the software on both my ipod touch and ipad and now itunes will not sync.  As soon as it starts the syncing process I get a pop up window (I'm on Windows XP) that says that there's an error and itunes has to shut down.  I ran the diagnostics test and it says there's no error.  Not sure what to do now.
