Stop videos on iPad syncing to computer

I have podcasts (videos) on my iPad. How do I stop them syncing to my Mac laptop? I don't have space for them. I've deleted them from the Mac and selected 'don't sync podcasts' and 'don't sync videos' but every time i connect iPad to laptop it syncs again. How do I stop this from happening?
Thanks in advance.

Ok, because I synced it originally on my laptop and then I took it to work and authorized that computer also. After that, I ripped all of my cd's and transfered it to my ipad. After that I backed up the library on my work computer and transferred it to my laptop. I am trying to use my laptop as the main device... ok, so I'll manually transfer all of the purchases and then sync. Wish me luck!

    You don't need to double post with the same question.
    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Music and Apps Purchased on iPad, sync to computer???

    Hey, I'm very new and don't understand how this works. I've downloaded a few albums and a bunch of apps directly through WiFi on my Ipad. If I sync to my computer, will all of the apps and music be gone on the Ipad? I just want to make sure there's a backup... thanks! I've also downloaded one album to iTunes on my PC. Can I put that album on my ipad?

  • IPod and iPad sync new computer

    I have the original iPad and a touch. Desktop recently crashed, no backup. When I sync for first time w new computer, can data be transferred to iTunes from pad/pod? Or have I lost everything?

    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iDevice, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so. With the iPad connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purcahses From - the name of your iPad. Repeat the same for your iPod unless the iTunes content on each device that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store is identical.
    For iTunes content that was not purchased from the iTunes store and for photos transferred from your computer, if you have a Mac you can use this 3rd party utility to transfer this content in the opposite direction.
    http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/
    Photos transferred from your computer to your iPad are optimized for viewing on your iPad as part of the iTunes transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced depending on the resolution of the photos on your computer. The resolution will be lost when transferring these photos in the opposite direction which is why this is not supported via the iTunes transfer process. Photos on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with your iTunes library and all other important data. An iDevice is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device.

  • Sending iPad Sync from Computer to iCloud

    I tried to restore my iPad last night because I had a couple of apps that wouldn't open.  Each time I chose restore, I would get an error message that a file was corrupt and it could not restore. 
    I was able to clean it and get most of my apps back by using iCloud, but a lot of files were lost that I had backed up to the computer.  And each time I've plugged it in to restore those apps, it won't work. 
    Is there a way to send the backup from my computer to the iCloud and have it restore that way?
    Thanks anyone for the help!

    If you want to remove all photos and not have them sync back to the iPad, with your iPad connected to your computer, while iTunes is running and with the iPad selected under the Devices icon at the top of the iTunes window, click on the Photos Tab and then uncheck the box next to Sync Photos From and click on Apply in the lower right corner of the iTunes window.

  • Video Podcasts Not Syncing From my iPad Mini to iTunes for Windows

    Hello all.  I have the iPad Mini, and recently have been downloading my Podcasts there.
    It occurred to me that in case something happens to my iPad, I should have my Podcasts backed up to my computer.  So, i downloaded iTunes for Windows on my computer.  I plugged my iPad Mini into my computer and synced it, so that my Podcasts would sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library.
    I noticed that all of my podcasts did sync, except for the 3 video podcasts I have.  None of the video podcasts synced.
    Anyone know how I can get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to my iTunes Library?
    Thank you in advance!

    Just wanted to kick my question back up. to see if anyone had any idea how to get my video podcasts to sync from my iPad Mini to iTunes on my computer.
    Audio podcasts seem to be syncing fine.  Just the video podcasts are not.
    Thanks.
