Problems syncing ipad, problems syncing ipad

Hi There,
I have just bought a 27" Mac and would like to Sync my ipad to it. The problem that I have is I keep getting a message that says unable to sync because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the iTunes library. I have flagged the things that I want to sync and it only fills up half of the 64G that I have avaliable. This is the first time that I have had a mac and the first time that I have tried to sync, Im not sure of whats wrong. Any assistance would be appreciated

I think I know what I did, I downloaded the update early from online and now it wants to restore to that download which I have deleted, if I click Shift+Restore is the official apple update file somewhere for me to select?

Can't add a new event to iCal on my iMac - but the event sync's to my iPad - is this a Lion problem? iCloud is on.

Can't add a NEW EVENT to my iCal on my iMac- however the event is sync'd to my iPad with no problem. iCloud is turned on for iCal. Is this a Lion problem or something turned pff. I cannot find an answer. Help?

William,
It is a possibility that you are adding new events to your "On My Mac" calendars.
"On My Mac" calendars will not sync with iCloud. After backing up the "On My Mac" calendars, and ensuring that all events are duplicated on your iCloud calendars you can delete any "On My Mac" calendars.
For further troubleshooting advice read iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

TS4062 I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. Any other suggestions?

I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3. Any suggestions?

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

I can't sync my macbook air with my ipad, problems with authorization... this keeps cropping up: "The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permi"

Help, cannot sync completely with my ipad, and i also cannot remove or delete shared photos which are clogging up my ipad 64GB memory! Some issue with this keeps croppin gup, so frustrating:
"The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed."
Not sure how we can correct his permissions problem, and whether authorising or deautorizing makes any difference, with more and more errors keep popping up, this got to be such after an update of the OS, can remember which!?
HELP!!!

follow this:
Launch iTunes
select iTunes Store from the menu on the left side.
sign in via the link on the top right area if you haven't done so already
click the link where you Apple ID email appears, enter your Apple ID password, click View Account, this will take you to a page displaying detailed information about your Apple ID account.
The last item under Apple ID summary should be Computer Authorisations, click Deauthorize All
now reauthorize any computers as needed when the system prompts you.
good luck.

Hi, Abril_Perez17.
This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music. See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled. This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

Ipad 2 syncing problem.. please help..

i have recently bought an ipad 2.. earlier it would sync when i connected it to itunes however now it doesnt. i hv downloaded new apps into itunes that are not gettin transferred to the ipad.. the ipad is gettin detected and when i press sync den it whizzes through the apps but doesnt transfer the new ones. what can i do?

Can you try following to see how things behave:
1) wirelessly add a new app to the iPad
2) connect the iPad to the MacBook with iTunes running
3) select the iPad and go to the Apps tab
4) select Sort by Name for the apps list and scroll to where the new app should appear
5) move to the home screen containing the new app
6) perform a Sync
I saw 6 phases during my test. During the 3rd phase I saw the new app being copied over. You should see "Copying xyzapp..." type messages. During or after this phase, the new app should show up in the apps list and it should appear with a check mark. Is this what you see?
My guess is that an error is occurring in one of the steps prior to the app copy phase and that phase is being skipped. Maybe iTunes later checks the app list and not seeing an entry for the app, removes it from the iPad.
One other test to try is, if possible reinstall the app wirelessly (you should be able to get to it through the Purchased list in the App store) or get another app. Do the Transfer Purchases menu option. This should place it on the apps list with it checked. It you do a Sync, it should leave the app on the iPad. If the transfer purchases does not work, then the problem should be just with that process.
I would say try to use your free phone support contact if you are eligible as no part of your sync process should be failing. Hopefully you will eventually get to someone that can guide you through pinpointing the exact point of failure.

IPad Calendar sync problem

Hello. I have a strange problem that has come up within the past few weeks.
When I create a new event in the calendar app on my iPad2 (ver 6.1.3), it doesn't sync with my other devices or iCloud. But, when I create a new event on any other device, my iPad will sync and the event will appear in the calendar.
So far I've tried going to settings>iCloud and turning Calendars OFF, then turning it back on. No luck there.
Any other suggestions? Thank you!

ICal iPad, iPhone syncing problems

I have turned off icloud calendars on both devices then I have reset them both and then turned back on icloud calendars, numerous times, yet still my calendar entries do not show up on my iPad.
I have both devices set to show "all events"
This is a recent problem.
I have an iPad 1 and iphone 4s

Many thanks, that was indeed true and it does answer part of the question. Do you happen to know why one event every now and then will not sync properly, but if you erase it and start again, it will? I am not joking....

IPad & iPhone Sync problems

This is starting to make a hole in my head!
I have one album that doesn't want to sync with my iPhone. I tried repairing the database - no joy. Then I tried rebuilding the database - even less joy (since it deleted all the images from 2 of my albums and I had to replace those.)
Every time I would try to sync to the iPhone, I would get a -50 error. Meanwhile, syncing the same album to AppleTV worked fine.
OK, I decided this was probably due to a problem with a single photo. So I muddled through testing, and found 4 photos that were preventing the sync. I removed those 4 photos, and it was able to sync with the iPhone.
But then I tried to sync the same album to my iPad, and the -50 error is back. When I get some time, I'll try to track down the additional images that might be causing it for the iPad.
But this leaves me frustrated and confused:
1) Why would the same album sync fine to AppleTV, but have a problem syncing to iPhone and iPad?
2) Why would different photos be causing the same error on different devices?
3) Why is this only an issue for photos in that 1 album?
4) What would cause individual images not to sync?
BTW - to fix the problem with the individual images, I duplicated the master for those files. I then lifted/stamped the adjustments. The new image was able to sync just fine.
Any suggestions?

Well, after hours of troubleshooting, I think I figured out the problem.
First, the fix:
Select all images in the "offending" album.
While holding down the "Option" key, click right and select "Generate Previews".
Then re-sync, and it works.
My theory on why this works:
I suspect there was no problem with the Aperture Library. I believe the problem was with the iTunes Optimized Image Cache - you know, when iTunes says "Optimizing xx of yy images for iPad". That cache, I believe, is only updated when there is a change to the image. I'm also guessing that deleting the image from the device (iPad or iPhone) does not delete the image from the cache, so if you then re-add it to the device, it pulls it from the cache. So the only way to re-generate the cached image is to make a change to the image. This can be accomplished by making additional adjustments to the image. But of course, no one wants to do that. So instead, another way to update the timestamp on the image is to regenerate the preview. When iTunes sees the update to the timestamp, it goes ahead and runs its "Optimizing..." task, recreating the cached image that gets dumped onto the iPad or iPhone.
So, I believe this is actually a bug in iTunes.

IPad Contacts sync with Microsoft Exchange problem

I have a iPad & iPhone and use Microsoft Exchange to sync my Calendar, Contacts and Email with my Google account. I am having a problem with my Contacts. Some how when I have my iPad sync my contacts it keeps adding contacts that I have changed or have deleted. I can have over 30 extra contacts with some adding the same contact 7 or 8 times before I delete them in Google and switch the sync off on my iPad. How is my iPad having these ghost copy of old contacts and keep adding them to my contacts on Google. I have deleted my Microsoft Exchange account to Google off my iPad and tried it again with no luck. It keeps adding old contacts I have changed or have deleted? What can I do

We have a user with the same issue. Each time a contact is updated, a duplicate is created. I have done some testing removing phone numbers from a contact in Outlook, but they remain in the contact information on the iPad. Any ideas?

I have problem, after upagrading my ipad to ios5 i cannot sync my music library correctly it is diiffrence between song in itune and in music i ipad after sync.

I tried sync and unsync nothing my itunes library has 3367 songs and when i connect ipad it shows after selecting entire music only 3342 songs. Pleaese help. Thank you.

You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

Syncing iPhone iPad problem

I have an ipad 1 and iphone 4s

Many thanks for that, it would have been very useful if still had old pc. The part I don't understand is the films are on my iPhone and were on iPad, but iTunes library refuses to recognise them. And I can't find anyway of accessing the iPhone memory for want of a better word though my new iMac
Many thanks again

Lightroom for iPad. Sync problem

Lr for iPad. Syncing .... To iPad. Just shows a folder , no images and a symbol in empty box with " import from camera roll " any ideas welcome please !!!!!!!

TThe same thing happened to me a few days after installing the app. It seems that once the connection is broken, the Mobile collections simply disappear. I also had this happen when I booted my desktop and tried syncing the second time (oddly, not the first). LR told me it was trying to sync a different catalog. Thinking it was referring to the Mobile catalog (collection?) I clicked ok. My collections once again disappeared.
Seems the Mobile collections are "fragile"? Until Adobe gets the direction all the mobile apps are moving in totally figured out, I'd suggest making LR originated copies back into your ios camera roll. At least then rebuilding won't be so frustrating. Really hoping they link LRM and PS Touch in Creative Cloud. That seems like A very logical next step and would make workflow intuitive and very useful on the run.

Having problems syncing to iPhone and iPad

Im really struggling to sync my photos to my iphone, I tell it which projects to copy over and then it just randomly copies some of them sometimes then other times none and doesnt copy over information such as faces and places.
On my ipad it syncs them fine but a lot of the photos are blurry...which they aint on my aperture?!

Try this. Go into the Aperture library (Control-Click on it and "Show Package Contents".) Delete the folder "iPod Photo Cache".) Sync your iPhone (and/or iPad and/or iPod) again. This may solve it. If this short procedure doesn't work, the try the long way:
1) Uncheck the "Synch Photos from ..." box in iTunes. Sync to delete the photos from the i*. Quit iTunes.
2) Start Aperture. Select all the previews that you want on your i*. Choose Delete Previews from the Photos menu. Quit Aperture.
3) Delete the iPod Cache folder from the Aperture library as described above.
4) Launch Aperture, select the photos (projects, albums, ...) you are synching and do Generate Previews from the Photos menu. Quit Aperture.
5) Launch iTunes, and recheck the Synch Photos box, choose the stuff you want synched, and then hit the Apply (or Sync) button.
Please let people know if this works.

I would like to know how I can delete sync photos from my ipad as I have tried everything to delete them as they are unwanted and it was a first time try

I am having problems deleting unwanted photos from my photos app on my ipad, I synced with my pc as i wanted to see how the system worked, and now i cannot delete any of them, even with the delete button at the top left hand side, which does not function

If it was synced from your computer then it can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need remove/de-select it from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

Mac mail not syncing deleted messages with iPad email?

I'm very frustrated with the mail sync between my MacBook and my iPad. My Microsoft Exchange (@student.uml.edu) email for school will NOT sync between my Mac and my iPad.
When I delete mail from from Mac mail, it does not delete on my iPad. This has led me to have 3 read emails in my inbox on my MacBook and 45 emails on my iPad. I can't imagine having to keep track of deleting emails from my laptop then again on my iPad thats just silly.
Am I doing something wrong here? Help!

I have the same problem in the opposite direction - I can delete things on my iPad but they don't delete on my MacBook and Mail won't let me delete them. My problem is also with an educational Exchange account. Other accounts sync without problems.
