Syncing iPad v1 to iMac
Have recently updated iTunes to v. 11.0.3 and have problems in syncing my iPad v.1 to my iMac running OS 10.8.3.
Upon syncing both by hard wire and WiFi, back up step runs, but sync stops at Step 8 and reports connection has failed.
PLease advise
I wonder if it's related to this?...

I have a 1st gen iPad. Upgrade to IOS 6.1.1 appeared, but it quit shortly into the installing and has not come back up again. Both the iPad and when synced to the iMac, say i am fully up to date at 5.1.1! Has anyone had / got the same issue? How can I upgrade when it doesn't acknowledge there is no need?
You are most welcome

Can't sync ipad calinder with imac 10.6.8
I can't get the ipad calendar to sync with the calendar on my imac running 10.6.8. I put an event on the ipad, it never appears on the imac! it does appear on the icloud calendar. I've tried itunes sync plugged in to the imac too. What can I try?
I´m having the same problem. From the info I have gathered online, you need to upgrade the Mac OSX to 10.7 or 10.8 which costs $19.99. Is there a free way to do this?

i just bought a brand new imac and i connected my ipad thinking i could easily sync my whole itunes library over. My actual itunes library is stored on my PC at work. When i connected it, it said it would erase everything on th ipad and sync from itunes library on the mac (of which there isn't one yet). I'm confused. Honestly I thought this would be a snap for such highly intelligent products.
AdamYour iTunes library is stored locally on your computer. It is not stored by Apple/iTunes on a server somewhere so that your iTunes on a new computer recognizes that library and sync with it. You said it yourself that your iTunes library is on a PC at work.
You will have to copy that library to the new iMac and then iTunes on the Mac will recognize the iPad and sync accordingly. This kb article from Apple explains a number of ways that you can do this. Included in this article is the transfer purchases feature which you can do from the iPad to the new Mac, but it will only copy purchased content into the new iTunes library. The link is actually at the bottom of this post. The Atomic browser is giving me fits today.

Why do I get an error message when trying to sync my ipads with my imac
We have two ipads - version 2 I think - the last ones with the old style plug. Both are running IOS 7.1.1 Over the last week, every time I try to sync either ipad with my imac (27" - about 18 months old) which is running OSX 10.9.2 I get the following error message. "The Ipad cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred (1723)" In every case it takes a while for the error message to appear - the sync gives every impression of rolling along just fine through the various steps - when it reaches step 5 of 6 (syncing photos) it seems to hang up, then after a while the error message shows up.
Interestingly, there are no photos on the ipad, so nothing to sync to the imac, but I discovered all of this when I tried to sync some photos in the other direction, from iphoto to one of the ipads. All I got was the pin wheel of death. I am running the most current version of iphoto too.
Any suggestions on how to fix this would be gratefully accepted.Can you create a test Project in PrE 9 and does that work. If so, close that Project and then Open it again in PrE 9.
It could be as simple as your PrE 8 Projects just not Opening in PrE 9. There is often forward compatibility, but not always. It is usually best to finish Projects in the version, in which they were started.
Good luck,

Since I synced my ipad to my iMac I have duplicate photos appearing in the Photo section on my iPad and one can be trashed but the other one can't. How can I get rid of the ones without the trashcan?
Thanks so much. I was afraid to mess with that. But when I unsynced them, it worked.

When I tried to sync my iPad to my iMac tonight, I get a message that my iPad 2 cannot be used because it requires iTunes 11.1 or later. Yet when I check for updates in iTunes on my iMac, it tells me 10.6.3 is the current version. When I got to apple.com and try to download an iTunes update, it says it is downloading, but nothing happens.

I updated my Safari to be able to get into the itunes store again and now I can't sync my ipad to my imac anymore. What do I do to get it synced again?

Really? Safari is not updated as part of any standalone process. Do you mean Safari on your iMac? Then did you really update OS X?
Sorry, it's not at all clear what you really did. You should provide us with version numbers of:
OS X
iOS
iPad model number

I have 2? How do I sync selected photos from my IPad to my IMac w/o losing all photos on my IPad which will be replaced with the photos on my IMac.You see I have two IMacs with different sets of photos. Also want to convert all Apple works docs to pages docs on my IMac. Is there and app available to do the former. many thanks. b
The iPad and related software is designed to sync with only one computer. I suggest transferring the photos from one of your iMacs to the other so that all photos are on one Mac. Same for all other files you want to sync over.
To get those AppleWorks files to the iPad you'll have to determine if Pages will open them. If it will then use the file sharing feature of iTunes to copy them to Pages on your pad.
If Pages will not open the AppleWorks files directly you'll have to save them in some format that Pages will read. These include but may not be limited to Pages and Word formats. -
How do you sync iCal on my iMac to my iPad?
How do you sync iCal on my iMac to my iPad?
Hi Patti,
You need to use a server calendar system like on iCloud or Google Calendar. You could alternatively connect your iPad to the computer and use iTunes to sync calendars.

Sync my existing iPad to new iMac
Hi, I have just bought a new iMac computer which i have just tried to sync with my existing iPad. I used to sync this iPad with my old laptop and when I now try to sync with the new iMac it says it will wipe all the date and replace with (not a lot) on my iMac! I don't want to wipe whats on the iPad (photos).
Also on my iTunes on my old laptop I have lots of music from old CD's that I downloaded. How do I get these onto my iMac????? The only ones on my iMac are the ones I paid for on iTunes! They are however on my iPad so can i somehow transfer them from that onto my iMac?Mike has answered half your question and the rest is implied. As he said, Migration Assistant will transfer your data (and applications if you wish) to the new computer. Note: Migration Assistant migrates the entire account, not just data so assuming you've started up your new computer and begun using it, after you've run MA you'll have two accounts - the old one from your previous computer and the one you've been using on your new computer. For this reason it is sometimes more convenient to grab any new files you've created on the new computer and put them on a flash drive and then erase the new computer and reinstall the OS so you can use Setup Assistant to recreate your old account on the new computer. (You'll have to restart in Recovery Mode to do this. See Mike's link above.
Having moved your data from the old computer to the new one you can sync your iPad and everything that was on it will still be on it. -
Is there a way to sync outlook calendars with Imac, Ipad, Iphone calendars? I am not running exchange server.
hello,
BlackBerry devices do not support ActiveSync.
you have several ways, from best to less good :
1)
if your company has set up Outlook Web Access, you can use the BIS connection of your device to connect to the Exchange server (email + Address book) through the url of the Outlook Web Access. The OWA needs to be accessible from outside the company.
2)
if your company has setup an external link to the exchange server (can be accessible from outside the company), you can configure your BIS directly to the Exchange server (email only if I recall correctly)
3)
if your company allows it, on your PC you can setup your email account to automatically forward all incoming emails to a third party email (like GMail or Hotmail), and then configure BIS to connect to that email provider. You will get push email. You can then setup a reply-to: field.
4)
use a Windows Mobile phone that has the ActiveSync feature.

Unable to sync iPad to iMac. Get message 'iPad can't be synced because not enough free space to hold items in iTunes Library'. Only major content is iTunes U stuff (lots of videos). Don't download any music or other videos to iPad.
Deleted iTunesU content on iPad and unticked iTunes U from syncing on iMac but message remains.
Very frustrating.No longer a problem. After leaving a while and trying again the iPad and iMac successfully synced.

What is the procedure for verifying that my photos, after syncing up my iPad and my iMac, actually are in iTunes?
iTunes manages your photos between the iPad and iPhoto on the iMac. If you have things set up correctly, then the photos will go to iPhoto for safe keeping and later use.
