Old ipad to new ipad problems

I have an old ipad with newer iOS (6.1.2) on it. I backed it up to the icloud. I am trying to set up the new ipad but the iOS (6.0.1) isn't up to date. Can I set up as a new ipad and then still get my stuff from icloud afterward?

Re: Old iWeb to new iweb problems -please help

1. I've been experimenting with the new iweb, and I inserted the html on the page,
then I uploaded onto the internet to see what it looked like, and now I can't delete
the html from the page. What should I do?
2. I took my original iweb pages and created new pages with the new iweb
using the original addresses, and on the internet, it says page not found.
What should I do?
3. I have videos created with imovie, but in the new iweb they are not showing up on the internet, they upload to a folder, but not onto the internet, I tried everything. What should I do?
Thanks,
Barbara

1) Do you mean that you insert HTML into a snippet box?. If so, delete the box and republish.
2) If you are publishing to the Apple server then the page URLs are different. iWeb '06 publish to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb folder and iWeb '08 publishes to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites. The old URL will have iWeb in it and this needs to be cut.
30 iWeb '08 stores your movies in the "Media" folder. Make sure you have uploaded it.

TS3899 Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.

Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone. I have deleted account and reinstalled.

Thanks. I got the problem fixed. Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor. It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner. Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail. I checked all the specifics between the three units. It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com to TWC.com. Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics.

I bought an iPad 3 yesterday; this is an upgrade from the original iPad. I was told that migrating the data would be simple. My desktop is a PC with Windows 7 Professional. I can't find a way to back up my old iPad so I can restore the data to the new

I bought an update to the original iPad an iPad 3. In was told that migrating the data from my old iPad to the new will be a snap. Alas, it isn't. My desktop is a new high end PC that came preloaded with Windows 7 Professional and I have had nothing but problems. My earlier computer was XP and everything, including my Apple interface, in particular iTunes, worked without problems. When I was trying to back up my data from the old iPad to my desktop, the only thing it would do is synchronize, then got an error message to download the latest iTunes, which I did but it still did not work. I have a lot of music both purchased through iTunes and a lot of others which were CDs that were copied to the desktop. I also have a lot of books through Kindle and other books in iBooks and audio books from other sources, plus two iPods I want to sync. I need some advise on where I find the back up feature in iTunes so I can copy all the data on from my old iPad. Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you.

In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

How can I use back up from my old iPad to my new one when one is iOS 8.1.3 and the new one is iOS 7.1.2. It not compatible on the screen of my new iPad

I Had several problems with my old iPad so I have now been given a new one.i have made a back up on iCloud with my husbands iPad bit now it's telling me on the screen that there are no iCloud backups are compatible with the version of iOS 7.1.2 on this iPad my husband has iOS 8.1.3. Which I am trying to set up from.
what do I do?
kathryn.

You can't restore to a backup that was taken on a device which has a higher version of iOS than on your iPad, you will have to update your iPad to 8.1.3 to be able to restore to it
You should be able to update your iPad via Settings > General > Software Update

Can i safely delete and reset my old iPad when my new iPad2 is synced?

I got a new iPad 2 and its synced by icloud. Now I want to reset my old ipad and give it to my mom:)
Can i safely choose "erase all content and settings" in "General" without everything being erased on my new ipad via icloud...?
Please help.

As long as they have different names that shouldn't be a problem.
Back up the old one on your computer. Then with the new one, when you set it up, set it up from the backup you just made of the old one. Verify that your data is on the new one, then you can reset and rename the old one. (When you set that one up, presuming you use the same computer, select the option of setting it up as a new ipad, give it a new name and it should be different.)
Personally? I'd back up to my computer first and verify the info before I backed up to the cloud. iCloud has eaten some peoples' data and lost it forever, so I'd be 'better safe than sorry'.
Once you have them backed up and separated then you can use the cloud for your backup.

[TRICKY]How to buy apps made by apple free with old account on new ipad?

This is really trick...
How can I buy apps made by Apple free with old account on new ipad?
I bought a new ipad air and creaed a new account, and I used the new account buying iMovie, Keynote and Numbers on ipad air for free ofcourse... then I decided to abadon the new account and again use the old account. With the old account I bought and downloaded Pages and iPhoto --still for free of course... and I found that iMovie, Keynote and Numbers are not for free!!! Isn't it wired??
Now my problem is ----- How can I buy apps made by Apple free with old account on the new-bought ipad air?

But I bought Pages and iPhoto for free using the old account....i just couldn't buy iMovie, Keynote and Numbers for free with the old account, which I have bought with the new account on the new ipad

I have a new iPad Air but I am not able to sync any non-iTunes purchased movies between my Mac and the iPad. My old iPad still syncs correctly.

I have tried all the advice from the forums such as editing the info in iTunes, adding playlist, changing the info categories, ensuring there is adequate iCloud backup space, but to no avail. I suspect the issue is with an iPad setting or with iCloud as this is only a problem for the new iPad and not the old one but cannot see where anything differs from the old iPad settings. Any dieas welcome.

Hi Demo, I am back, so here is my result.
On my PC I signed out of itunes and deleted the software and then downloaded again.
It appears, at this stage to be working OK. It has allowed me to do a restore and backup, fingers crossed xxx.
That is a very good sign.
The happy result is, I have not been arrested and my computer is intact, so far.......
Thanks for trying to help..
I'm happy to hear this news. Sorry that I couldn't help, but you are quite welcome anyway.

Restoring new iPad to last sync with old iPad

I just replaced my iPad due to battery issue. When I connect to iTunes to restore using backup it states the software is to old on the new one (guess it does not have 4.2). It suggests I start as a new install, upgrade software then go back and restore to old...my question is does it matter what I name the new one and can I delete it later after restoring to the name of my old iPad or does it matter? Thanks.

I would give the new iPad a different name for the time being before your finally restore from the backup of the old iPad to avoid possible problems (I doubt you have to do that but I would not take the chance) . After you restore you can just click on the name of the iPad in the left-hand side of iTunes under Devices and change the name like you would a file name.

What's the best way to migrate from an old ipad to a new ipad?

Well, it's more than that. I gave my husband a new ipad for his birthday. He needs to set up the new ipad and can't figure out the best way to do it. Any advice to minimize frustration and lost apps?
Then I want to zero out his old ipad and claim it as my own. Any advice on the best way to do that?
thanks in advance.

Two major ways for hubby to get going with the new iPad.
1. Do a full backup of the current iPad, then "restore" the new iPad from the backup.
2. Do a complete new setup on the new iPad, and download all the apps again from your app store purchases.
Each approach has advantages and disadvantages. #1 is faster and less burdensome, but if there are any quirks with programs or data that may have caused problems on the old iPad, you will carry them over to the new iPad. #2 is the cleanest way for a new machine, but you may lose some data.
In either case, once he is comfortable with the new iPad and it is acting as it should, you can wipe the old iPad by going to Reset and wiping the machine to restore factory specs. Following that, you can set it up fresh for your own use.

I want to restore my new ipad to my old ipads back up, but the back up is not listed in the drop down menu.

OK, report back once it is done even if it works so that others with similar problems can find solutions.

Is it possible to transfer some games from an old iPad to a new one without loosing all the data?

Is it possible to transfer some gMes from an old iPad to a new one without losing all my game's data?

yes
You will need to copy the whole iTunes folder which is in your user profile on the old computer in Music folder.
Before you do it make sure iTunes are updates on the old computer and it works without any problems.
This will copy all your media, music, movies (provided you did not change the default location).
After the migration you will need to sing in to Apple store again with your Apple ID
and also authorize your new computer (both done from the tom menu bar in Store.
Once you are done please deauthorize your old computer (the same menu path) if you are not planning to use it anymore.
Any problems post here.
