Synch iPad with two Computers?

I have the iPad 3 Wi Fi genertion. Can this iPad be Synch to two Different computers. One computer has windows vista home premium and the other has windows XP Pro. If so, how is it accomplished? Thank you.

The key word in your question is the word "sync". The answer to your question is - No- you cannot sync to two different computers. Syncing with iTunes will transfer content from that iTunes library to the iPad. If you sync with another computer, iTunes will overwrite the iPad contents from the first iTunes library with the content from the second iTunes library.
You can use multiple computers for the purpose of putting music onto the iPad, but you cannot sync with two computers. You can read about that process here.

Use iCloud to backup the iPad. Many users don't use their iPads with iTunes at all anymore. Personally, I would never rely only on iCloud, but I would guess that millions of iOS users are now using only iCloud and not backing up with iTunes at all.

Hey MacFromManila,
It's a different method of backing up your iPhone 4s. This article covers the differences between the two and may actually be able to help you choose between them:

How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
Hi there
My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
How do I do this please?
I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
Any advise please?
Thanks

You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

Opening Blend, I'm met with TWO device choices my Z10 and another that I don't recognize

Actually, when I first open Bland on Samsung Tab S, I see my Z10. I enter the Password. It goes through some process and then I am met with TWO device, the Z10 and Device-xxxx where I guess XXXX is some partial PIN number but I don't recognize it. So I then have to reselect the Z10 and again enter its password. Basically logging in TWICE. Somewhat irritating but I'm more curious what's the other device and how do I eliminate it. Going to BBID site I don't see any place to specify devices associated with my BBID. And it is not the partial PIN of either of my Playbooks (heaven forbid Blend from supporting BB's own devices).

So, I gather it is some residual device that BBID had/had associated but I don't know where to go to remove it from the pool.
The current Z10 replaced a defective one about a year ago and I don't recall its PIN number.
Where does BBID store the devices that share it?
I will charge the 9930 and see what its pin is.
I think that is likely it.
ON a PC, login to www.bbid.com and see if that device is still listed and you can remove it there.

Is there an option of synching Iphone with two itunes on different mac books ?

is there an option of synching Iphone with two itunes on different mac books ?

You can't sync it to two computers.
But you can plug it into a second computer and add things or take things out of apps (under the app tab, scroll down).
Also you can take photos off on a second computer.
There are a few things you can do on a second computer.
But not a sync.

Can I have two iPads with two different credit cards linked to one iTunes account?

Can I have two iPads with two different credit cards linked to one iTunes account?

It is still not possible to have two credit cards with your iTunes store account. I've just had a discussion with an Apple representative who suggested I give feedback to Apple about this. The more we are, Apple might listen to us in the end.
This is the link
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
Please feel free to use or modify what I wrote there:
I’m surprised as are many other people who have the same issue (can see this in many forum threads) that Apple don’t give us the possibility to have at least 2 credit cards with one AppleID/account like most other vendors do (even much smaller than Apple). This certainly forces people to buy some stuff elsewhere that they otherwise would have purchased from Apple (for example books) or restrain from buying things they would have bought if they had a choice to use a second Credit Card.
Not having this option puts me in a precarious situation since it would not be OK to buy just anything with the Credit Card that is tied to my business (and in many cases like mine the business is only one person, the VAT No being the same as my social security No).
Sole traders need an option too.

I have one icloud account sync with two devices. I made a note on my iphone. Suddenly it lost and all i see is note from my ipad. Is there any way to restore the note? Help me pls. Thanks.

Please help me as my note from iphone lost when it sync with another device. How can i restore back the note?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs. I have previously suggested ways to recover contacts, calendars etc, and other users have confirmed that they work, as such I am making the following suggestions to recover lost notes, but please note, as yet success is unconfirmed ***.
Recovering your notes is quite time consuming, you may wish not to save all your notes to save some time, if they are not of importance.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Open the 'Notes' app, and open your first note (assuming your deleted notes have now been restored).
Select the share option at the foot of the screen (rectangle with arrow) and choose mail.
Send the email to yourself (If they won't send, save them to draft)
Repeat steps 7 & 8, until you have copied all the notes you wish to save to email.
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and make sure 'Notes' syncing is enabled.
Open the 'Notes' app, check that iCloud notes have reverted to how they were before starting the restore.
Open the 'Mail' app and open the first email you sent yourself and copy the text you want in the note.
Open the 'Notes' app and create a new note in the iCloud, paste the text you copied.
Go to iCloud.com on a computer and check that the note has synced to iCloud.
Repeat steps 12, 13 & 14 until you have recovered all your notes.
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.
*** As a matter of protocol, anything that I can’t test myself will need to be confirmed by at least 5 individuals before I’m willing to accept it as confirmed. At this time only 2 individuals have confirmed it to work.

Synching iPad With iTunes Apparent Problem

Lately every time I use iTunes on my laptop to synch my apps with my iPad iTunes says that there is less apps on my iPad than there really is. Also it shows that my iPad has more space available than it says I have in settings under "usage" on the iPad. If I choose to remove the apps on the iPad through iTunes instead of manually doing so on the iPad iTunes shows less apps on the iPad through the bar that shows the total amount of space on the iPad and space that is used and by what.
I have noticed this going on for months so I am always removing the apps I want to remove from the iPad manually instead of through iTunes. This way I am not losing any apps that I do want on my iPad and my iPad is remaining the way I want it too. Through this method, I am not noticing any changes through iTunes with the bar that depicts the amount of used and unused space on the iPad, even the correct number of apps on the iPad is correct.
(A) Important Information Regarding the iPad, iPod Touch 4th Generation & iTunes:
1. My iPad is an iPad 4th Generation (or iPad with Retina Display)
2. It is running Software Version: iOS 6.1.3
3. I will not update to iOS 7 (iOS 7.0.4) because I totally hate and dislike iOS 7 and everything about it, I prefer iOS 6.1.3 and iOS 6.1.5 that is on my iPod Touch 4th Generation that is also not able to be upgraded to iOS 7 anyways because iOS 7 isn't supported on it so my intentions are to keep my iPod and my iPad running the iOS 6 operating system. (Because of this, it would be wonderful to get rid of the annoying 1 on the "Settings" app icon notifying about the iOS 7 Update that I have already said I don't want.)
4. Regarding updating apps, not wanting iOS 7 and Apple Devices that can't support iOS 7 (such as the iPod Touch 4th Generations) because many of the app updates that were supported on these earlier devices are saying: "Download the last compatible version? The newer version requires iOS 7 or later." This is truly unacceptable behavior for apps because everyone deserves the right to have the current versions of the apps, especially since some of them had to be paid for with valuable hard earned money. Thus all apps should automatically be compatible with all versions of the software the earlier devices are compatible with (meaning that they can't support iOS 7).
I am suggesting this because this could be the possible reason why the apps through iTunes and the iPad are saying there are less than there really is on my iPad.
(B) Regarding iTunes & Synching With The iPad:
1. My iTunes Software Version is the latest, iTunes Version 11.1.3
2. iTunes with the apps I want to remove still on the iPad (6 total to remove) says that I have 94 apps installed with 8.82GB of free space available. The total amount of GB of space used by the installed apps is: 11.03GB.
3. Removing the 6 apps I want to remove on the iPad through iTunes says that I now only have 80 apps on my iPad after removing them through iTunes and now have a total of 16.01GB of free space available. The total amount of GB of space used by the installed apps is: 3.84GB all of a sudden when only 6 apps were removed supposedly.
4. Of course I decided not to allow these changes to take affect on the iPad and intend to remove a total of 6 apps manually, so instead of clicking "Apply" in iTunes I've clicked "Done" and then when asked: "Would you like to apply these changes?" I clicked "Don't Apply" and manually removed the 6 apps after disconnecting the iPad from my laptop.
(C) After Removing The Apps Manually From The iPad & Re-Synching With iTunes:
1. With the 6 apps manually removed, iTunes now says that I have 88 apps installed on my iPad. (94-6=88)
2. The total amount of free space on my iPad according to iTunes is 8.91GB of free space available. This matches what my iPad says under "Usage" in the General Tab under "Settings".
3. The total amount of GB space being used by all the apps now currently on my iPad are: 10.91GB.
Now as I was saying earlier about iTunes and synching apps with my iPad saying I have more space and less apps installed than it really does has officially been proven with the three sections (A-C) of information above. Now I like to know why this is accruing and how can it be corrected so both iTunes and the iPad are showing the correct information when synced?
ALSO NOTE: If anyone tries to tell me or suggest I should install iOS 7, don't bother saying it because I will not upgrade to iOS 7 ever because as I've said I don't like it and in my opinion it looks un-appealing and uninteresting and at the same time I want both my iPod Touch 4th Generation and my iPad 4th Generation (iPad with Retina Display) using the same iOS operating system, as in iOS 6.

HT202213 how to sync an ipad with two libraries

How do I share my itunes library between 2 devices? Dragging the music over to the device isn't doing the trick...

Not quite sure this is what you are after, if not you'll need to explain further.
Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

Synch iPad with iTunes

I just bought myself an iPad and wanted to synch it with the rest of my Apple gear thru iTunes. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing all sorts of trouble doing this.
The versions of software does not match. First I upgraded my iTunes, then to install this, it says I need the latest version of Ios 10.6.8.
Is this a paid FW upgrade, or can I download this somewhere?
This is really tiring as I cannot synch my brand new iPad and get full usability, if the devices cannot be synched.

Problem synching ipad with itunes

I have an ipad 3 and have started having a problem synching in itunes. It refuses to merge contacts, calendar and notes but instead simple replaces the one on the ipad with the older version from itunes. This is also happening on my iphone 5. It has also deleted 2 of my calendars. I still have these calendars on another iphone 4 but I am afraid to try to to back them up as I don't want to lose them permanently.
I have double checked that it is marked correctly in info. It has synched correctly in the past.
My itunes is current as well as my IOS.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

IPad with MiFi device?

Has anyone used their iPad with a mobile hotspot device?

Slightly off topic because it's not a MiFi, but I wanted to mention that I use the WiFi Hotspot from my Palm Pre Plus without any problems so far. And Verizon now gives the ability for free as opposed to spending $50 a month for it (Mobile Broadband Wi-Fi like the MiFi uses) as before (it's included with the regular data plan, $30 a month, which you have to buy with the phone anyway). It's hard to say, but with the difference in cost between a 3G and Wi-Fi only iPad, it will take me several months to "break even" on what it would have cost to get the more expensive 3G iPad. And if you consider I would still be paying for data on the phone anyway, and never paying AT&T for 3G, I am saving money forever.
