Sync mail accounts to new iPad Mini
I just got a new iPad Mini, and going to set it up, didn't there used to be a way to sync all one's email accounts, when it was setup and plugged into iTunes? I could have swore there was a check box, that you selected, and all your different email accounts one had, was transferred and added to your iOS device, but am not seeing it now... do I actually have to go in and manually add each and every email account?! It does my iCloud email, which is fine, but that's it... there are my own domain email addresses, my gmail, my local ISP email account...
Didn't that used to be in iTunes the way for those to be synced and added to one's device, without having to go in and do them all individually? If that abilitiy is still there, where is it now? If no longer the case now - what? Are we to add them manually each and every one?!
Please, someone say it's the former and not the latter.
Thank you for your time and help you may provide. All the best to you,
JPH
Hi, Demo...
I actually discovered this awhile ago when trying to get my email accounts onto my iPhone, and ended up having to go in and manually add each and every email account into my phone, after seeing that the ability in iTunes to sync all one's email accounts was no longer there... But, with the new iPad Mini now, was not wanting to have to go in and do it all again, and so was checking to see if I was just missing it, and apparently I am not, and it is no longer there to do so.
When I set up my iPad, I even had it backup from my iPhone's latest backup, but it still did not add the email accounts... Like you, I have the latest version of everything... am going to go in and see what I can do... maybe backup my iPhone again, and then just do a restore of my iPad Mini to that latest iPhone backup... though I really don't want to do that as I spent a good portion after getting the iPad yesterday of setting my iPad up to how I wanted everything, to now go erase all that!
Or, maybe I will just get ahold of Apple Support
Thanks for your time, Demo, I appreciate it. All the best to you,
JPH

Itunes could not sync mail accounts to the ipad beacuse the mail accounts are in use by the ipad
hi all just syncing pc and ipad after 7.0.3 upgrade and get the message that itunes could not sync mail accounts to the ipad because mail accounts are in us eby the ipad. i know i have seen several older threads on this,. but now cant find them. any ideas how to get over this problem message? many thanks
When my icloud account is attached to my device I go to mail, contacts, calendars, and there is absolutely no way to remove my mail account. When I deleted my icloud account it suddenly gave me a way to delete and readd my mail account, and synching became feasible again. Synching wasn't possible for me, when I had an icloud account. I suppose the icloud idea still isn't feasible, at least Ican't figure out how to use it.

I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?
If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance. -
I can't set up a rocketmail (yahoo) e mail account on the ipad mini. Works fine with the iPhone 4s
I have reset passwords. The e mail address is correct, the server details match that on the iPhone. I have even created an iCloud e mail address. All with no success. I would appreciate. Simple how to resolve the issue. Thank you.
I had exactly the same problem when I was trying to set up the Rocketmail account as an 'other' account. When I changed to setting it up as a 'yahoo' account it now works. Hope it works for you too.

I have a new iPad mini and my contacts are synching with each others information and pictures
I am trying to set up a new iPad. My contacts from Facebook are putting wrong picture and combining names
Hi Hindie,
If you are having issues syncing contacts on your new iPad Mini, you may want to double check how you have your contacts set to sync. The "Contacts" section of the following article should outline the process:

Hi. I purchased a new ipad mini and my brother already has iphone 4,so how can i avoid sharing the same contents that are on his phone? Will creating an other apple id help us in seperating our facetime and icloud accounts as we share our laptop to sync ?

I just got new ipad mini....I want to delete all of the music that was synced from my itunes account. I have went through and deleted some songs one by one but some have a cloud icon with a red arrow on them.....is there a simple way just to delete them?
Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

I have a new ipad mini and I want to sync with my ipad, but I don't want to sync photos or music as it takes up all my memory. How can I do this?
I'm not understanding what you're wanting. You don't sync ipad to iPad. You can sync both devices to the same iTunes account or same computer.
And you can choose the content on each device. I have an iPod and iPad and maintain separate content on each one. -

I just bought a new Ipad mini a while ago, and created a new apple ID *********** , I can't download anything on apps store, it keeps on asking for a credit card but I don't have one. Can I create an account without a credit card?
<Edited by Host>Read this:
iTunes Store: Accepted forms of payment
It is the same for the app store. You are required to have some sort of payment method in the record.

The iPad mini is basically a one user device. There are no Accounts. You can set up restrictions so that only you can do certain things.

How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes? I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini. Thanks.
If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

How do I add a new Mail account on my iPad with IOS 6.0.1?
How do I add a new Mail account on my iPad with IOS 6.0.1?
You should not need to enter anything. the iCloud service is one of the preconfigured options.
Just choose the iCloud type from the Add new Mail screen, and enter your details in the next screen.
If you don't have the iCloud option, but instead have the mobileMe option then you will need to update your iOS.
