IPad has update software but will not work with iMac with updated software

I have the iPad running the 5.1.1 and when the iPad is plugged into the wife's new iMac running iTunes 10.6 I get a message
The iPad “Ase’s iPad” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.5 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.
I check the iTunes and it's at 10.6, and iTunes will not even recognize the iPad under devices.
Again while plugging in the wife's iPhone you get the following:
The iPhone “iPhone” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.5 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.
Again the iTunes is at 10.6
Any help with this? Do I remove the iTunes completely?
Shouldn't be this hard.

Locate the iTunes app in Applications folder, highlight it and type Command I (I as in Ivan) and look to see what version is installed. If it's still 10.4 then navigate to
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1426?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Then download and install following the on-screen directions. Once it installed it wouldn't hurt to restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches, it's possible one or more is corrupt.

TS3694 I have an ipad, 2 yrs old, that will not restore, due to error 3. what is error 3?

What is error 3 ? I have a list of many but not that one. Ipad opens with a silver apple on a black screen, then when you hit HOME, it turns on for 30 seconds and a black screens comes in from the left, shutting it down. After 10 tries i got a graphic to plug into itunes, so did it. My mac worked on iy for 30 minutes, then came back with error 3.
The ipad was taken to an Apple store & the genious said there was a battery problem and there was nothing they could do?
Ideas?

Thanks Alfred,
My iTunes on the Air are up to date. Tried 3 times to restore and always get error 3. The iPad now only shows the graphic to plug into iTunes.
Called hotline to Apple rep yesterday, (chat) then they phoned me. He couldn't figure it out and went to consult a colleague. That was yesterday afternoon & he hasn't called back yet. This is on my dime.
Any idea what error 3 is.

IPad 2 iOS 5 Pages will not sync with iCloud

I have my iPad 2 fully updated [iOS 5, latest pages update] and I turned on the options for using iCloud; however, when I go into pages, all I see are a bunch of up arrows in the upper right corner of each document and nothing is syncing. I have the iCloud setting for doc sync turned "on" and the Pages option to use iCloud turned "on."
It has been over 10 hours since I turned all this on, I connected my iPad to a power source [its connected to a good WiFi] and went to bed - its still not synced.
I have migrated my Mobile Me account over to iCloud, and I click on the 'iWorks" and it only gives me the Giraffe and the "Use Pages with iOS" but nothing will change.
Thoughts? Is it just too soon executus? [sorry bad reference]. It looks so very exciting! I cannot wait for my iPad to live sync through pages! I've been using dropbox and other word processing apps for so long >< I cant wait to be able to rely solely on pages!!!

Did you set up iCloud on the iPad in the settings?
I set up my iCloud account on my iPad and on iCloud.com and updated Pages this morning and my documents uploaded right away. The up arrow indicates that the documents are uploading or ready to upload - at least that's what I assumed.
Try quitting pages and restarting your iPad your iPad - you might as well restart the Mac while you are at it - and then try it again.
You did update Pages so if you did this should work.
To quit Pages - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close Pages by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Pages app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Unknown error - will not sync with iTunes

My 80gb video iPod worked fine until yesterday. Now every time I try to sync with iTunes an unknown error occurs and it won't update from the Library. Have tried everything suggested, even restoring and have consequently lost all music from the iPod after the letter B. I updated the iPod with the latest software it suggested, was wondering if that could have anything to do with it, or what I could do about it.
Thank you.
Dell Inspiron 6000 Windows XP Pro

Could you quote for me what the error message says?
Since there are a lot of "unknown error" numbers out there with syncing (-36, -50, -69, -39, -48, etc.), it would help to know what is the exact error number that you are getting.
Thanks for the info!

Active sync on bionic will not work with exchange 2010

We recently upgraded our corporate email system to exchange 2010. Prior to this, while on exchange 2007 I had no issues with active sync. On the day we upgraded active sync no longer worked for me I have others at work running older Droid OS. 2.2.2 and 2.2.3. They have no issues with the new exchange. I am on 2.3.4. I am able to do the setup and the setup will detect the new server and act as if the account is setup correctly. When it tries to sync I get a "connection error" message.

Hi,
From your description, I recommend you use the following URL to check if you can access EAC. I see it works for several people about this issue.

Hope it helps.

My computer sees my iPad as a camera and will not sync with iTunes.

My computer sees my iPad as a camera and I can't sync with iTunes.

If there are any photos in the Camera Roll you will get a prompt like you mentioned when connecting your iPad to your computer. It is indeed a good reminder to save those photos to your computer. But if you don't want to copy those photos to your computer then dismiss the window and start iTunes. Once iTunes is running you should e able to sync your iPad.

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

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.

My iPad just went black and will not start. It has not been dropped, nor has it been wet. What do I need to do?

My iPad just went black and will not start. It has not been dropped, nor has it been wet. I am very careful with it. What do I do now?

Plug it into an electrical outlet let it sit a few minutes. Then try performing a hard reset, by holding the home button and the lock buttons at the same time until an apple logo appears.

My iPad 2 will not restore using iTunes. It keeps telling me - the iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknow error occurred (4) - I have tried every suggestion I could find so far. Any ideas as to what I can do?

My iPad 2 will not restore using iTunes. It just quit a week or two ago and showed that I had to connect to iTunes.
When I do the "restore and update" it does not complete the "verifying iPad restore with Apple" and then shows the following message:
The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (40).
I have tried it a number of times. Also turned of anti-virus and firewall. Tried on different computers. All resulted in the same message. The iPad is only 2 1/2 years old, so I hope it can be fixed.
Does anyone have a solution?

Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7. The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8). For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work. However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things! Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

Photostream will not sync with ipad

My new ipad will not sync with any of my current photos, any pictures that i already have or have taken with my iphone will not download, but they will download to my pc but will not download to ipad. Also any photos taken with the ipad will not upload on photostream. Everything is connected with the same profile, and are all on wifi. Tried turning off photostream and turning back on but no results and turning the ipad on and off, did nothing too.
Need Help.

I had the same problem, but after looking in other discussions concluded that when the level of the iPad-battery is less then 20% fotostream does not work!!!

No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
• I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?
