Syncing Help needed!

My father was trying to download music on my ipad2.  He hooked it to his computer and hit restore.  I now have all his info and mine is gone and none of the Apps will open.  The iCloud looks like it is still set to me.  Any advice?

Don't sync with another computer except your own.
Do you sync with iTunes on your computer? Do you have a backup in iTunes. You can check to see if you do. Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and you can see all of your backups.
If you have a recent backup - you can restore your iPad from a backup and then sync with iTunes to restore all of your own content.
Turn off auto sync first. Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box at the bottom that says prevent iPods .... from syncing automatically.
The click OK and quit iTunes.
Now connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes - right click on the iPad name on the left side under devices and select - Restore from Backup. Choose the backup from the popup window and restore. After that completes - sync with iTunes to restore all of your own content to the iPad. iTunes will tell you that it is going to erase the content on the device - but that is what you want anyway - you want your own content back again.
If you do not sync with iTunes and you are using iCloud for backups and content storage - read this.

  • IMovie syncing help needed!!!

    Am trying to use iMovie 11 and am going insane, seriously insane. I wanted to make an interview between my brother and I in time for xmas. So we recorded ourselves on camera, and used a zoom box and mike to record seperate and better quality audio.
    Now, all I want is to attach and sync my audio clip with my takes, and his audio clips with his takes. Shouldn't be too difficult, right? Here is the problem. Once synced, I need to CUT DIFFERENT CLIPS and put them together, i.e. my brother talking, then me talking, then him etc. Yet I want these clips to have the seperate audio tracks attached and sliced in the same spot, which is just not happening.
    I can attach the audio in the project window, but what I want somehow is to attach and replace the audio in the EVENT window, so I can just select the clip I want and drag into projects, and the synced audio will come with it. Does that make sense?
    This would seem the most basic video editing ever but iMovie just won't do it!
    Any help would be appreciated before I burn my mac and go back to a PC : (

    This is difficult in iMovie, and rather easy in Final Cut Pro.
    If you would like to avoid the expense of Final Cut Pro, I would recommend this...
    1) Sync your takes, make a project out of it, and SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME to Apple Intermediate Codec so you retain as much quality as possible. Repeat this for your brother's takes.
    2) Now import these AIC movies into iMovie using File/Import/Movies. This will give ou the video and the good audio together in unified clips.
    3) Now edit your iMovie project as usual.

  • Calendar sync help needed

    I am not allowed to use Outlook email at my workplace. It seems that I cannot use only the Outlook calendar to sync my Iphone without making it my primary email client.

I am trying to find a solution with 2 way sync between my Iphone and calendar. Can anyone help? I would deeply appreciate it as this has been a substantial problem for me with my Iphone. Thanks

  • Itunes/Syncing help needed

    I have re-installed Itunes after a system crash. Now:
    1.) Sync IPOD is greyed out
    2.) I have used up all 5 activations for my one PC. I want to know how to reset that to 0 or 1.
    3.) After 5 hours I have still not received the Restore Or Reset my User Name or Password email from Apple Support, so something is serious blown. (Yes I have checked all of my Junk/Spam folders and it isn't there either.)
    Any helpers here?
    Thanks

    P.S.
    This IPOD Touch is in need of a backup before I restore it to factory settings. Why?
    I need to reset parental controls and the 4 digit security pin has been forgotten.
    This IPOD has dozens of apps that she has paid for through Itunes. Can the APPS be restored from 'The Cloud', Itunes Store account records, anything?
    What about the songs? Are they gone too?
    How would I back up the apps, songs etc, without also backing up the inefficient security measures and forgotten pin?
    Thanks

  • Improper syncing - help needed

    When I switched to a new computer, the playlists and music that I had created went to a separate file on the computer.  But the iPod does not sync to that file and I do not know how to transfer those files to the file that does sync with the iPod.  There are two separate files in the iTunes folder on my computer - one has my whole music library, the other has music that happened to be on the iPod before the computer change.  Can anyone help?

    Actually, isn't the message that you are getting that the iPad hasn't been backed up for 3 weeks an iCloud message? I've never heard of the message about not having synced for 3 weeks. That doesn't solve the problem, I ask for clarity sake only.
    Typically, resetting the iPad as we talked about will clear this message. I'm not sure what else to try if resetting doesn't work and with no access to a computer. I don't know what having acces to a computer and iTunes would do anyway, if the iPad is frozen with this message on the screen.
    Are you sure that you waited long enough - until the Apple logo showed up on the screen - before you let go of the buttons? Have you tried it a few times?

  • Post-sync help needed for Macbook

    Hi
    I recently bought a Macbook Pro 2Gb and sync'ed it up to my old iBook G4 using the firewire cable. Unfortunately I think I've now realised that I didn't want to move my old applications over as most of them are pretty shoddy and some have been totally removed (including email).
    How do I uninstall as such the old applications on my new Macbook and only use the fabulous new applications that come with Leopard? I'd like to keep the firewire'd documents etc. Should I totally uninstall everything and start again or is there a quick fix please?
    Many thanks for helping a blonde in distress!
    Em

    yes I meant shoddy in the fact that they are unusable or old applications tht have improved versions for leopard. Because of installing old applications i can't even access an outlook type email application at the mo. All I want is to totally revert to the applications that Leopard comes with. I should never have firewire'd my applications from my g4 ibook over to my new macbook.
    Thanks

  • Major sync help needed

    So I had to do a clean operating system install on my computer. I did backup my itunes music folder on a flash drive, but that did not work I guess. So I installed itunes again and want to know how to get everything from my iphone back to my computer??? I need my contacts, music and everything. Please help

    If you copied the iTunes folder, where did you place the copy of the iTunes folder after you did a clean install of the operating system?
    With iTunes quit, the iTunes folder should be placed in your Music folder, which I believe is located in the Documents folder on a PC.
    You also need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes
    Photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer should have been included with your computer's backup, and can be restored from the backup.
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer. If you aren't syncing contacts with a supported application and the same for calendar events - these options are not selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences, contacts and calendar events will not be touched on your iPhone, and the same for photos in your iPhone's camera roll. Photos in your iPhone's camera roll are not touched during the iTunes sync process except for being included with your iPhone's backup.

  • Sync help needed

    i've seen other similar problems on here but the trail ends and I'm no further
    I am unable to sync on my imac.
    when I open mobile me in systems prefs the sync button is greyed out.
    I've tried signing out of mobile me but cannot. I tried opening isync to reset, but get the message "SyncServices: Can't connect to the sync server: NSInvalidReceivePortException: connection went invalid while waiting for a reply ((null))"
    I've restarted, tried the solution via terminal thats is suggested on another thread and still no luck.
    I've deleted the mobile me password in keychain but when i signed in again the same problems existed.
    any ideas?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This is the iSync forum. iSync is only for syncing Contacts and Calendars to non-Apple mobile phones, not for syncing between Macs or to MobileMe.
    The MobileMe forums start here: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=116
    In the meantime, try this:
    First, make a backup of your Contacts and Calendars:
    In *Address Book*, choose *Export > Address Book Archive...* from the File menu.
    In iCal, choose *Back up iCal...* from the File menu.
    Then navigate to:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/
    Make a backup of the Local folder then delete the original Local folder.
    Restart the Mac and hopefully the message will be gone.

  • ITunes/iPod sync help needed!

    So I have a 2nd gen iPod touch, and I buy all my music straight off of iTunes app.  My old Mac computer (Let's call it Mac1) had all of my songs that I had bought on there prior to when we replaced it (may 2011).  Then, we got Mac2. I can't put my songs that I bought after May 2011 onto Mac2, because it will only let me delete my ENTIRE library on my iPod (which has all of my purchased music on it). I don't want to lose those songs that I spent my money on.  How do I make my iPod sync to a new computer and get the iPod's songs onto the computer?

    Just transfer the iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    You may also be able to redownload the music( and apps) by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • IPhone 3G 8GB Crashes when syncing with iTunes. URGENT HELP NEEDED.

    I have latest iTunes and OS on my iPhone 3G...
    Every time i plug my iPhone in it begins to sync and then iTunes will freeze and not respond..
    I have tried re installing iTunes.. I can't reset my iPhone as i can't create a backup..
    URGENT HELP NEEDED PLEASE!

    I don't have an iphone, but if it's anything like my click-wheel ipod, a reset doesn't delete anything.
    It just resets the ipod's operating system, kind of like a PC restart. Did you try this Sleep/Wake button thing mentioned here?

    Maybe it's a podcast of voice memo causing the problem like it did for this person
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10907809#10907809
    That's all I got. You might have better luck on an iPhone forum. Everyone there would probably have one. Like I said, I don't.

  • Sound import to 25 fps sequence is always out of sync and need rendering!!!

    Anyone know why an aif sound file from Pro Tools imported to 25 fps sequence is always out of sync and needs rendering? It is like FCP is converting it to another freq. when it is 48k already! I do this all the time with NTSC and 23.98 projects, what is up with the 25 frame seq.??
    Thanks, Mark

    Your audio files must be 48,000 kHz AIFF files if you want to use them in Final Cut Pro.
    If the originals are coming from CD's they are 44,100 kHz.
    Resample in Soundtrack Pro or convert in QuickTime Player.
    Your location says you are in LA. Why are you working in in PAL?
    I know that things need to be at 48K this would not matter anyway if it was 44.1 FCP would do the conversion and not make it out of sync in an NTSC Timeline, but a PAL timeline FCP screws with the sound file. The files came from pro Tools, the industry standard should mixing.
    I put them through Sound Track Pro and it did not help.

    Unfortunately this is very difficult because the top half of your post, your really the only one that can answer what the setup should be.  The adjustments are made based on the acoustics of your room and how everything sounds noone can really give you info on it because every house, and room has different acoustics.  The walls, insulation, carpet or bare floors, basement or main floor are just some examples of what can make a difference in sound reproduction.   By the way NHT (Now Hear This) are excellent speakers.  For bass and treble, the music I listen too requires a high treble content so I usually have it at 7 out of 10 but my bass is at 4 out of 10.   The sub base should be fine where it is.
    Did your receiver come with an Audessy mic for calibration.  I would use that for a basic setup and go from there I am not sure if on your unit it will do frequecy but I think it did.
    Your volume settings look fine again personal preference there is right or wrong.
    For you listening mode Preset  you should have an auto setting I am at work so it may take a coule of hours for me to get back to you as I have to go through your manual and see what you would set it up with so please bare with me. I will list the info as I read it so it may not be in the order you have it.
    I will have to make a second post since I can't go back and edit this one.

    How can I transfer music from my ipod classic 60GB to my iPhone 4 music library, just by song or whole CD that I have bought? Help needed!

    load the current version of I tunes on the laptop and sync the pod.  Then sync the phone - you can select all or as much of the music you want to.
    Also - if the music on the pod was purchased from the itune store in the first place, you should be able to redownload it to the phone for free, as long as you are using the same apple id that it was bought with.
