Sync my new ipad and macbook pro

For Christmas I received the IPAD Retina and I am trying to Sync it with my MAC Book Pro. When I connect the cable a message appears saying that I need to install ITUNES version 10.7. When I check for updates on my MAC Book it appears there are no software updates available and I am running version 10.6.
HELP please.
Thanks,
G

iTunes 10.7 (from here) requires Mac OS X 10.6.8+ - is that what you are running or is it a lower version ?

How do i sync emails between iPad and Macbook Pro

I have the iiPad2 with WiFi. I remember that I used iSync in the past between my Macbook and desktop unit. I also am signed up with me.com. Can anybody please advise me what's the best way to sync my emails? I use Apple's mail program. Thanks.

iSync has never synced email or anything between Macs.
To sync email you need to set your account up as IMAP (not POP3) on your iPad and Mac.
If you are using your MobileMe email address and have configured your MobileMe account on both Mac and iPad, then your email is automatically in sync.

How do you sync calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro running Maverick

I had no problem syncing my iPad with my MacBook Pro before upgrading to Maverick. Now I just keep going round in circles. It's such a basic requirement to be able to sync calendars, but just so problematic.

IMessage not syncing across iphone, ipad and macbook pro

I was recieving messages to my ipad at my mobile number. But they were not being recieved on my phone or my macbook. I then signed out and back into imessage on my phone as I saw that the number did not have a tick next to it. That has got me recieving numbers again on my phone but now I am not recieving messages to my ipad on macbook. I logged out on my macbook and the imessage crashed - when I relaunched and logged back in the names against the messages had all disappeared as it had reset the message threads to "bonjour", even though this was disabled in settings. Is there a way to set them all back to my apple account? I am also still not recieving incoming messages to my phone number on the computer. Or messages in my iPad. Please can someone help?
Thanks

Read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data.
Quit Messages if it’s running.
Step 1
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following item from the Library folder (it may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.Messages
Leave the Library folder open. Try Messages again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
Step 2
If you still have problems, quit Messages again. Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
Messages
Note: you are not moving the Messages application. You’re moving a folder named “Messages.”
Test. If Messages now works, delete the Messages folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Messages again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place, and continue.
Step 3
In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with "com.apple.iChat". Move them all to the Desktop.
Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
Test again. This time Messages should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes Messages to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Messages again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in step 1. Stop here and post again.
If you later decide that you don’t like the results of steps 2 and 3, you can undo them completely by quitting Messages and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

How do I sync Pages and Numbers between my iPad and Macbook Pro?

I know there is a way to use iTunes to sync my Pages and Numbers files between my iPad and Macbook Pro, but I can't seem to find the app or software or instructions. I've searched iTunes and all I've found are the apps that I already have installed on my iPad. Can someone tell me where I can find the right downloads and instructions? Thank you.

The exact same way as in the old version.
Option 1) Select the content desired to sync and sync.
Option 2) Drag and drop the content onto the device.
If the side bar is needed/desired, typing Cntrl + S will display it.

Pages and Numbers not sync between ipad and macbook pro. icloud problem?

My Pages and Numbers are stopped synchronizing via icloud between ipad and macbook pro. Everytime I edit something to Pages or Numbers on my ipad, my ipad failed to upload the edited version to icloud. what happened?

I have a slightly different problem with Numbers and Pages failing to sync between a Macbook and iPad via iCloud. I have checked all the obvious settings. I think the problem may be that the Macbook username is my email address, whereas the iPad username is my wife's email address. However, both addresses are named alibis for exactly the same email address from our internet provider – eg we get the same emails, despite appearing to have different addresses. So I don't understand why the iPad cannot pick up Numbers or Pages files that have been opened and saved in iCloud on my Macbook. Other apps, such as iCal, sync perfectly, but i guess they don't use iCloud. Any help appreciated!
(We have tried emailing Numbers files to the iPad, but that is very slow and innefective.)

Syncing emails across iPhone, iPad and macbook pro

Can you sync emails across iphone, ipad and macbook pro, so if you delete from one it deletes on all? If you write an email on one it shows up on all? If you store something in a folder or flad something it shows up on all?
Thanks

Syncing mail is a function on the type of mail account, & requires an IMAP or Exchange account. Not possible with a POP3 account.

IMessage sync iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro

For some reason iMessage no longer syncs between my iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro. How do I re-sync them?
Thanks!

Hey there David,
If you are still not receiving your iMessages between all your ios devices, I recommend the following section of this article:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on each iOS device and make sure that you signed in with your Apple ID. You must use the same Apple ID on each device.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By iMessage At and make sure that you selected each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage.
If you linked a phone number to your Apple ID with iMessage and the phone number hasn't appeared, follow these steps.
Sign out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and Settings > FaceTime on all devices.
If you're linking a phone number to an Apple ID, sign in to iMessage on your iPhone first. Then sign in to the rest of your device one by one with iMessage and FaceTime.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Sync iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro contacts

Hello.
Everytime I sync my 3 Apple devices (iPhone 4, iPad 2 and Macbook Pro), I get the same contact 3 or 4 times at my iPhone...
By other way, I want that the iPad and Macbook Pro can have the same contacts as iPhone, because I update my contacts at iPhone everyday. So, the iPad and Macbook Pro must get the iPhone contacts and not the contrary.
Can you help me on this, please?
Regards
Luis Antunes

Well I answered my own question. I just deactivated all the other accounts on my iPhone except iCloud, and all the duplicates disappeared. Before I did this, I merged duplciate cards on the MacBook Pro (from the Contacts Card menu selection). iCloud needs to be selected as the default account on all your devices, and it seems that other accounts need to be deactivated. Be careful - deactivating an account also erases entries associated with only that account.

I have an ipod, ipad and macbook pro. When I add anything to my calendar it always comes up twice, and always reminds me twice on all of my appliances. Its probably really simple but how do I rectify this?

Hi there. Can anyone help? I have an iphone, ipad and macbook pro. Whenever I add anything to my calender it always puts itself in twice and always reminds me of everything twice on each of my appliances. I'm sure it just a matter of ticking or unticking boxes but I can't seem to get the right ones.

- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

How do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?

how do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?
I saved a corrected, most up to date version of my master Address Book Contacts as a back-up on my Mac Book Pro.
then in an effort to "simplify my life" i attempted to sync my I phone contacts - ( pre clean-up version) with my clean list on Mac Book Pro, New I pad and newly available icloud. DUH!! Using iTunes to do the sync caused the clean MacBOOK Pro list to be commingled with the dirty iphone contacts. amd now the whole mess is in the cloud.
I need to clear out the contaminated lists from all iplaces, and startover with Back-up on my macbook pro. BUT HOW???
Help
Karen

I had exported an address book backup: abbu
so since i wrote, i have found my way into the cloud: selected all entries - deleted them all from the cloud.
This wiped out contacts on my iphone and i pad, and MBP, as well as on the cloud. I then imported the abbu back into my now empty address book.
To repopulate the crowd, i selected all in my address book and created a single card vCard for export to my desktop. I then dragged that vcard into my empty cloud. Now my cloud has the same clean contacts as my MBP addressbook. The cloud then pushed the clean contacts into my empty ipad and iphone contacts.
I had to go back to Address Book>preferences>Accounts and Add an I cloud account - but if you accidentally create a second i cloud account - all of a sudden your address book will duplicate itself. I quickly reversed it by deleting one of the icloud accounts in my Address Book>preferences>Accounts.
I created a new entry on my MBP and it is now on all devices and in cloud
I also created a new entry on my iPhone and it is now in the address book on my MBP.
I feel empowered!!
Have i missed anything??

Can I connect my iPad and MacBook Pro both via an iPhone hotspot?

First, a little background. I have an aging MacBook Pro (~5 years old), and my netbook was smashed on the way to work last night. My cell phone (not an iPhone) crapped out a few weeks ago.
So my first priority is to replace my netbook with an iPad. When I can afford it, I also want to upgrade to a new MacBook Pro. I've also been thinking of getting an iPhone.
One thing that always confuses me is Internet connections. I currently connect my MacBook Pro to the Internet via Verizon and use T-Mobile for my cell phone.
I was surprised when an Apple salesman told me the iPhone has a "hotspot" that I can use to connect both an iPad and MacBook Pro to the Internet. But an Apple salesman at another store told me the hotspot will connect the iPad.
Can anyone offer some details? I've been browsing some of the other threads, but I still don't really understand what a hotspot is. Am I correct in understanding that as long as I have an iPhone with me, I can use it to connect my iPad to the Internet? Can I similarly use it to connect a MacBook Pro (either my 4-year-old+ model or a new model)?
What kind of connection speed does a hotspot offer? I do a lot of websurfing and web design. Would a hotspot connection be about as fast as my current connection via Verizon?
Also, is the hotspot feature available with either AT&T or Verizon?
Thanks.

Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.
