Because they are two separate devices.

IMac Calendar wont sync, iPad and iPhone do

Recent update to Mountain Lyon and iTunes, iPad, and iPhone all up to date. iPhone and iPad Calendars sync to each other, but iMac Calendar will not sync. I am using just Apples Calendar and iTunes for syncing. Help. Tried checking syncing only Calendars, checking no Calendar Sync and then Calendar Sync on again...no joy.

How to sync iPad and iPhone 4?

How do I sync an iPad and iPhone 4 so that they can both use my cellphone number?
Also when I try to update my iPhone 4 in iTunes, it says my iPhone software update server could not be contacted, what does that mean?

Just plug the two devices into the Mac, as if the other one didn't exist. iTunes will keep them separate and allow you control sync of apps and media content as you wish.
As to iCloud, for the iTunes in the Cloud feature, if you use the same iTunes Store account on both the iPad and the iPhone, you'll want to turn off the automatic download option in the Settings -> Store preference pane on your devices. Then you can sync, download and update as you wish on each device.
Regards.

Syncing ipad and iphone apps

I like the way all of my folders and apps are set up on my iphone and would like the same arrangement on my ipad. Is there a simple was to SYNC to current layout from my iphone and copy it exactly to my ipad?

You will want to sync manually rather than automatically.
When your iPad is connected to your computer and you have iTunes open and running, simply select only the apps that you want to sync by selecting or deselecting (checking or unchecking the boxes) next to the apps that you want on each device. Select the Apps tab at the top of iTunes and under the Sync Apps heading in iTunes, you can even sort your apps by iPad, iPhone, iPad and iPhone, etc.
Just pick and choose which apps you want to sync to each device. I have an iPad and three iPod Touch devices that I sync using the same computer and iTunes library and each device has it's own content.

Syncing ipad and iphone games together as one

I was wondering how or if I can sync my ipad and iphone together so that my games are all in sync...for example, I have tiny towers and angry birds on both but the games are on two different levels because they aren't synced together...anyone know if this is possible?

Wait a second-- so there is no simple way to sync data from games? Isn't this something that could/should be possible through iClouds or Game Center or some kind of cloud system
With apps that require a sign in and where the data lives online (Pandora, Spotify, Evernote) it's all there and updated, no matter what device you sign in on
Kind of insane that it's not possible with games

How do I sync iPad and iPhone without getting all the iPad apps on the phone

iPhone 4 tried to download all the iPad apps when syncing today. But of course overloaded the phones capacity.
After deleting from the phone and syncing they were all reaload to the phone again.
After disconnecting, went into iTunes, selected iPhone and when I selected one app to delete I got the message that this app would then be deleted off all devices. I would have thought that the iPad and iPhone options at the top of itunes window would highlight apps for each device especially as the two lists are not the same.How do I keep iPads apps on the iPad And iPhone apps on the iPhone?
Help please

Connect one device to iTunes.
Select what is desired to sync and sync.
Eject the device.
Connect second device to iTunes.
Select what is desired to sync and sync.
iTunes will remember what to sync to each device based on the device name/id.
Be certain to uncheck the option to automatically sync new apps with each device connected.

Is it possible to sync iPad and iPhone automatically?

Is it possible to sync Numbers and/or Pages between iPad and iPhone automatically?

Is it possible to check whether this functionality is in the roadmap for LR? I would love this feature - I have LR installed on 2 Windows machines and would like to sync my photos (and edits!) between these. It may be possible using Dropbox or similar service but it feels like this should be built-in to CC.

Syncing ipad and iphone on the same mac!?!

TS3899 Email sync ipad and iPhone

How can I sync email on my ipad with my iPhone so that when I read or delete email on my iPhone it will show the same on my ipad and visa versa? Thank you

That action will only work if you have an IMAP email account. If you have a POP email account, your email actions will not sync across devices, so I assume that your email account is POP and not IMAP.

WIFI sync iPad and iPhone with new computer?

Bought my iPad in the fall, but didn't sync with my iMac because it was old and performing miserably, and because I was waiting for the MacMini to get a refresh so I could use it as a Media Center. Well, now I have my shiny new MacMini, but when I go to my iPad settings to do a wifi sync, it says it will sync next time I'm near my friend's computer. This is strange, because the only time I've EVER hooked up to a computer was once, at his house, to charge up and copy a book I wanted. I did not do anything except drag the book to my iPad in the Devices list on the left (older version of iTunes). I've read on other boards that I have to right click on my iPad and "transfer purchases" but when I connect my iPad to the MacMini by USB, all it gives me is the "Welcome to your new iPad" screen, with the option to set up as a new iPad or restore from a backup. Right clicking merely asks me to eject or restore. The only backup listed is dated April 21, 2011, which is an old iPad that was stolen. I've been backing up this current iPad with iCloud and have never had a problem, but it would be nice to sync over wifi if i want to copy files or music, instead of relying on Dropbox all the time.
Simillarly, when I try to sync my iPhone, I get as far as the syncing options, but when I go to apply the changes, it warns me that my phone is synced with another computer and that I can proceed if I want to erase this phone and sync the contents with my current library. In both situations, I'm afraid to proceed because I don't want to lose vital work information that has been stored in various apps. Any words of advice here? I know my apps are backed up, but I don't want to be surprised by finding out that the apps were backed up, but not the data I entered into them. I previously followed a tutorial which claimed I could copy and edit a file from the original iMac and transfer it to the MacMini, forcing it to recognize my new compurer as the original library... so when I open iTunes on the new computer, it does load up the iPhone and recognize it over wifi, and I can fiddle with options without having to connect via USB... but I get halted by that warning, and the settings app on the phone itself still indicates my original library as the one it needs for wifi sync. I should also add that my original iMac indicates that I need a newer version of iTunes to connect with my iPhone's iOS, but it is also too old (it's Lion) to upgrade iTunes beyond it's current version. I feel like with all this amazing technology, the options for a person who buys a new computer but doesn't want to migrate the clustered mess of their old system... still shamefully limited... unless I'm missing something.

Hmm. That sounds easy enough... but how do I backup to the new computer when it doesn't give me the option? When I connect the iPad via USB, it asks me to:
• set up as a new IPad
• restore from a previous backup (where the only backup listed in the drop down menu is a stolen iPad with outdated information, dated April of 2011. It doesn't ask to restore from iCloud where this current iPad is backed up.)
If you're suggesting that I back up both devices to iCloud and then wipe them, then plug them into the new computer and restore from the iCloud backup, so that my new computer considers these new devices, that makes sense... except that I don't see an option to restore from iCloud. Does that option appear later? And is it absolutely certain that any app I have entered data into will restore that information as well, and not just the app? For example, if I have an index card app which I make essay notes in, will those notes definitely be backed up along with the app? Or just the app? I can't afford to lose all my work data.
Thanks.

Syncing ipad and iphone to new macbook pro

I have a pre-intel tower mac that the iphone and ipad are currently synced to.
I want to sync them both now to my new macbook pro. I am unsure about syncing in general as I haven't done it myself yet.
I'm a little worried about loosing data, and wondering what happens to the old tower they are currently synced with.. can I not longer sync them to it once they are synced to the MAcbook pro?
any tips will be helpful.

Connect to the MacBook. It will ask you if you want to sync with the MacBook. It should then ask if you want to save what is on the iPad. Tell it yes, and it should do so. You should have your iPad apps backed up anyway, but I am pretty sure that you do not lose anything by transferring to another machine. The iPad does not care if it was a Mac or PC that it is synced with, it is not in either format. You do need to go and authorize your Macbook on your iTunes account.
Besides there is a step by step instruction on [How to transfer or sync iPad contents to Mac|http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/Howto_transfer_or_sync_iPad_contents_toMac].
Hope it can do you a favor.

Syncing IPad and IPhone on same account

I was setting an IPad up on Itunes for the first time. I was told that the user did not have an apple accout so clicked New User in ITunes. After I did this and setup the account my friends spouse does have an apple account with an Iphone. The apps on the Iphone syncs to Ttunes but when I plug the Ipad in the apps will not sync to the Ipad. I have successfully setup other Iphones and Ipad combinations to sync to each other on itunes. I have the lates copy of itunes loaded. I have uninstalled itunes and stated over from scratch. I can't seem to get back to the orginal page where it ask if you have an accout or a new user.

Probably because you should have used the spouse's account not a new one. Try logging into the iTunes store with the Apple ID and password for the account under which the apps already exist. You can then have as many different iDevices sync with iTunes. Each device needs a unique name so iTunes will keep track of what should be synced to each device.
But if you use a new account with a new Apple ID, password, credit card, etc., then prior purchases via the other account are not recognized and she/he will need to purchase all over again.
