Q re sync. I have deleted photos on my iMac going from 20,000 to 11,000. My iPad still has the 20,000. If I sync the 2 hopefully I will end up with only 11,000 on both devices but before I sync I want to make certain I won't end up 20,000 again
sync between desktop and iPad
Sorry, been away for quite a while....to clarify....
When you sync photos from iTunes, you overwrite the last set of photos that you synced unless you select them to sync to the iPad again. All photos have to be included/selected in every sync, and if any photos are not selected to sync, those photos will be erased. Since the photos no longer exist on your Mac, it is impossible for them to reappear on the iPad when you sync again. You have nothing to worry about ad long as the photos have been deleted from the Mac.

Just got new iPad mini and I can only get 140 pictutes in My Photo Stream while in my other devices I have 1000 photos in My Photo Stream. How do I sync to have all photos in My Photo Stream on this new iPad mini?
Hi Jose Sam,
It sounds like some of your photos are over 30 days old.

I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
You may want to sync the older photos through iTunes to get them on your new iPad mini.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever. -

Because I have deleted photos, Iphoto gives error that it cannot find the photos
Because I have deleted photos in my albums, Iphoto gives an error for each file saying it cannot find the file. Is there a way to stop it from looking for deleted pics?
Are you running a "referenced" library?
If you are did you delete the source photo via the Finder and not from in iPhoto? It sounds as if you did. If that's the case then drag the thumbnail to the Apple Trash Bin and empty it. That will stop the error message.
If you're running a managed library and deleted the original file via the Finder that's the reason. The same fix applies.
WARNING: Never delete a photo that's in the iPhoto library via the Finder. That damages/corrupts the library as you've experienced.

I have deleted photos from iPhoto trash but apparently still have 82GB of photos which I cannot see or delete - any help would be much appreciated
check the overall trash on the 'dock'.when files are deleted from programmes, they always go to the general 'Trash' as general files and you will need to delete form there as well. if there is still a lot of missing files taking up space try reloading or deleting 'Iphoto' and uploading again.

I have an original iPhone running version 2.2.1. I wish to get rid of the phone, but before discarding it I want to remove the email records, phone book information, and photos. I would like to leave the other apps in place. Any suggestions?
Delete you mail account on the phone and disable to sync your mail account in the info pane in iTunes with your phone connected, same for contacts. Also deselect photo syncing in the photo pane. After the following sync, your mail, contact and photos should be gone.
Photos inside the camera roll have to be deleted on the phone.
Remember, that apps only can be used with the account they were bought with. If the phone will be set up with a different iTunes account, all of your apps will be removed.

I am trying to print wirelessly from my ipad to an epson stylus SX438W. The connection appears fine on both devices but the ipad cannot connect to the printer. It has been working fine for the past 4 months. Can anyone help?
Have you tried restarting the printer? Reboot the iPad as well.
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 - let go of the buttons. -
What would happen if I added the itouch email to the add accounts on my iphone and confirmed that email address? Would only my iphone get both (itouch and iphone) messages? or will my itouch then also get my iphone messages as well??
Thank-you for clarifying third party and for pointing out the potential problems.
i will either have my phone unlocked by the carrier or get my phone service from them. switching carriers is not essential.
Thanks agin.

I have a few thousand songs in my itunes music library, when i connect my ipad that has only 50 songs on it will it overwrite the songs in my itunes library
I had previously syncd the ipad and the songs on it, then loaded songs from an old ipod into the itunes account (using irip) and now the ipad songs that were in the itunes account are gone. Can I change the auto sync settings before reconnecting the ipad again as to not lose the songs from my old ipod.

What the h*** happened to Live Updating of smart playlists in iT 11? I have several smart lists that pull from larger lists based on how recently a song has played. Not happening now. The whole library only updates "last played" for about 1 in 20 songs. This is really screwing up my lists that I use as backgrounds for a lot of activities in my classroom at school.
FYI, I've found that Live Updating can SORT OF work. It seems if you only have two rules, live upating works (IE, I have one that is a Rating must be 3-5*'s and last played cannot be within the last 8 weeks). Once the song is played it disapears off the playlist. BUT, as soon as I try to add a third rule, it doesn't work anymore! This is unfortunate because two rules really limits the ability of the playlist...

Two days ago most of my music dissapeared from my Ipod, however all of it is still in my iTunes Library. After synchronizing the Ipod there is a huge difference between both music in my library and the one in the Ipod.
Hi Rodobaldo,
Let's try to clear up this issue for you, I'd like to clear out the music on your iPod first. You'll want to find the Sync Music Checkbox, uncheck it, then Apply or Sync:
Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPod nano, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following article:
