My iPod and iPad are synced together and I don't want them to be

I have a school iPad and I can only use it for school since it was given to me by the school. My iPod is now synced to it but only my pictures that I've noticed, like all my pictures from my iPod photo stream is now in my iPad photo stream. And my music is on there too. I'm not supposed to sync it to my computer either. I'm supposed to give back the iPad at the end of the year. How can I keep them separate now? Or how can I separate them from being linked?

Are you using a separate Apple ID on each device?
Are you syncing it with your home computer?
For photos and some other things just go to Settings>iCloud and deleted the iCloud account or use a different Apple ID for the account
If you sync to your computer use the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Go to Settings>iTunes and App store and turn off automatic downloaid and turn off SHOW ALL
But to really help we need to more how yo use the school device and the ID used on the device

You don't sync the MM calendar anymore, you subscribe to it in iCal,
iCal>Preferences>Accounts, enter the details here.
MM should be the default calendar on all clients.

Latest update, 10.5, thinks my iPhone and iPad are still connected and self launches. Help?

Since updating to 10.5, iTunes self launches and shows bothmy iPad and iPhone as connected when they're not. Any help would be appreciated.

I'd like to know also. The way I understood it would work is that if you enabled the wireless sync on the iPhone or iPad, it would start iTunes and wirelessly sync when you plugged the phone or iPad into a power source. My iPad is not plugged in and is asleep with the cover on it, and it keeps restarting iTunes a few minutes after I shut it down.
Right now, I'm unchecking the "start iTunes when device connects" box on the iPad and the phone to see if that stops it, but that defeats the purpose. I DO want it to start iTunes when I initiate it by either plugging the device into the sync cable or into power, but not when it's sitting there asleep on the battery and just happens to be in the vicinity of my home network.
I think both my phone and iPad are doing this.
Obviously, I have Itunes 10.5 and iOS 5 on both my iPad 2 and iPhone 4. TIA.

I can not remember my icloud password and my ipad is blocked because I need to confirm my cloud password. any help you can provide would be appreciated

I for one at least am not experiencing Wi-Fi dropping on iOS 6.
Try this..
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You may need to enter your network password.
Then restart the devices.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
And try turning off your router for about 5 minutes, turn it back on.

Hello, scouseboy02.
I would recommend trying the steps in this article to troubleshoot the iOS device not being recognized in iTunes. Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8. If the issue still persists, try all remaining steps in the article.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Also, try testing other USB ports as well as disable any security software installed.

Is it possible to sync hotmail between ipad, iphone and macbook air. My iphone and ipad are synced OK but cannot sync up with my (new) macbook air - neither maill nor contacts.

I have had ipad and iphone for a while and my mail, contacts and calendar are all synced up so that when I add or delete an item on one device it mirrors that on the other. Have recently purchased a macbook air but cannot get my hotmail to sync up - so I have to manage that separately from the ipad. Help!

The text on my iMac, MacBook Pro and iPad are light grey and difficult to read

I have the latest upgrades of OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on my iMac, MacBook Pro and iPad Air 2. To my dismay, the text on all three computers is light grey and difficult to read. I tried to increase the contrast and also reduce the transparency, but to no avail. It is still difficult to read the text. What do I do?

Send feedback to Apple about their poor design choices. That's all I can think of, since this is the new, modern, minimalist, gray, and drab crapola Apple's foisting on computer users.

How do you make the iphone, ipad and macbook calendars sync together?

I thought I had everything set up to sync in icloud but just my iphone and ipad are syncing together and not my macbook. When I put a new event in the mac it shows up on my iphone and ipad but when I put a new event in my iphone or ipad they sync together but it does not go to my mac. Is there a setting I need to change?

None of the spreadsheet apps that work with Excel files offer anything like full native support in iOS. Apple's own Numbers app pairs down features for the iOS version. The hardware is simply not up to what a true computer is capable of, so all apps like QuickOffice, DocumentsToGo, Numbers and so forth offer reduced features from their computer-version counterparts.
I think a custom app will be your only real choice, be it a fully standalone app, or something built in filemaker or some other db-based platform.

My itunes on my phone and ipad are syncd but the itunes on my mac is empty ive plugged in both phone and pad but no syncing what can i do

i have only had my imac 27in a week my problem is my iphone and ipad are perfectly synced with i tunes but the itunes on my mac is empty i plugged them both in but it stays the same what can i do anyone know please

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall for the network problem.
Also for the original problem try the following if Ana's suggestions does not work
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1688 Every since I installed ios7 my Iphone and Ipad are not in sync and I cannot connect to FB via games

Since updating to ios7 I have had several probles. My iphone and ipad are out of sync especially with games. I can only play on ipad mini now because it won't sync iphone and is way ahead. When on my games it constantly says sign on to FB but won't do it. Can anyone help?

Ensure that all settings are the same for both devices in:

My calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.

my calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.

Make sure you are entering the contacts and calendar events on your iCloud account. On your iPad, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar. Here make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default, and not something else like On My iPad, Google Calendar, and exchange account calendar, etc.
Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and make sure you have selected iCloud as your default. (If you don't see this settings, this isn't the problem).
If your settings for your calendar is correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new calendar events to your phone, go to icloud.com from your computer and enter any missing calendar events on your iPad that are not on your calendar on icloud.com. Once your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted, then after a minute or so turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendars back to your phone. Then enter a new event on your iPad and confirm that it syncs to icloud.com now.
If your settings for your contacts are correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new contacts to your phone, do the same thing for Contacts (add any missing contacts to icloud.com, turn iCloud syncing off, choose Delete from My iPhone, after a minute turn contact syncing back on, try adding a new contacts to confirm that it syncs).

I recently had to send my old iPhone back and get a new one. When I did, I simply did a restore and backup with my computer. When I did that, my iMessage between my iPhone and iPad are no synced,

I recently had to send my old iPhone back and get a new one. When I did, I simply did a restore and backup with my computer. When I did that, my iMessage between my iPhone and iPad are no longer synced. No matter how many times I went to settings, messages and adjusted it, my iPad and iPhone recognize when I send a message out but not when I received a message from another IMessage user to my iPhone. My iPad simply doesn't get those messages. HELP!!!!

If it's corrupt, generally it would be lost.
However, there is third-party software out there that can retrieve some of the data, those of which however I could not recommend as I have never done so myself.
Also, if the old 4S was running a more recent software version than the current 4S, that may cause the issue however usually iTunes tells you exactly that.
Good luck in retrieving that information.
