Syncing my ipad problems

I bought my ipad from someone and it had some apps installed i'd never deleted those apps and also got my own from my Itunes now I want to sync the ipad with my mac but it ask me for the other user password. How do I do sync without loosing my apps

All content from iTunes is tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it, so those apps will be tied to the previous owner's account. Unless you authorise his/her account on your computer's iTunes then you won't be able to copy them over to it (nor will you be able to download updates to the apps) - you are better off deleting them and buying your own copies of them
For sycning to a computer that it hasn't been synced to before : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Syncing iPhone iPad problem

    I have turned off icloud calendars on both devices then I have reset them both and then turned back on icloud calendars, numerous times, yet still my calendar entries do not show up on my iPad.
    I have both devices set to show "all events"
    This is a recent problem.
    I have an ipad 1 and iphone 4s

    Many thanks for that, it would have been very useful if still had old pc. The part I don't understand is the films are on my iPhone and were on iPad, but iTunes library refuses to recognise them. And I can't find anyway of accessing the iPhone memory for want of a better word though my new iMac
    Many thanks again

  • After syncing Pc-Ipad my Photo's are out of order. In the folders they don't follow the Date-order. I use Itunes 10.6.1.7 and Ipad 5.1. The Problem is the same with XP and Windows 7.

    After syncing PC-Ipad my Photo's on Ipad2 are out of order. In the Folders/Albums the Photo's are no longer in the order of (EXIF) dates. I have updated Itunes to 10.6.1.7 and IPad2 to 5.1. I have reset the IPad2. I cleaned the Photo-cache and removed Itunes and Installed again. I tried it with Windows 7 (64) and XP, makes no difference. I tried it with one Album, Photo's also out of order. It doesn't seem to happen with my Ipad1 older software version. I there a bug in the newest software? Thanks for Help!

  • Problems syncing ipad, problems syncing ipad

    Hi There,
    I have just bought a 27" Mac and would like to Sync my ipad to it. The problem that I have is I keep getting a message that says unable to sync because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the iTunes library. I have flagged the things that I want to sync and it only fills up half of the 64G that I have avaliable. This is the first time that I have had a mac and the first time that I have tried to sync, Im not sure of whats wrong. Any assistance would be appreciated

    I think I know what I did, I downloaded the update early from online and now it wants to restore to that download which I have deleted, if I click Shift+Restore is the official apple update file somewhere for me to select?

    Unknown Error containing "0xE" when restoring
    To resolve this issue, follow the steps in iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting. If you have a Windows computer with an Intel® 5 series/3400 series chipset, you may need updates for your chipset drivers. See iTunes for Windows: Issues syncing iOS devices with P55 and related Intel Chipsets for more information.

  • I am having problems syncing my iPad 2 with iTunes. Whenever I click "sync" or "apply," the sync begins. As soon as it gets to step 3 (in this particular case "determining apps to sync") it immediately stops syncing. What's the deal here?

    You haven't purchased apps with multiple Apple ID's have you? If you have, you can only sync with one Apple ID in the iTunes library at a time. Whichever ID you are signed into on the computer and the iPad would determine which apps would sync.
    Have all of your apps been transferred into iTunes for your iPad?

  • What to do when iTunes cannot sync my iPad 3. Problem Event Name: BEX (Please Help)

    What to do when iTunes cannot sync my iPad 3. Problem Event Name: BEX
    Please Help to solve...

    Hi Ahmed,
    In iTunes, go to the Store in the left menu, select iTunes Store, wehn it opens, make sure you are on the home screen (icon of a house in the menu bar) and from the righthand side, select Account.
    Next you will see all of your account information. Just a little don, you will find: Apple ID overview, there it says, Authorised computers; click on the button to deauthorise.
    And you should be done.
    Grtz, Carl.

    You do realize that the message means that you need to download iTunes on the computer and not on the iPad - correct? I just want to make sure that you know that.
    If that is the problem, go here to download iTunes.

  • Cannot sync my iPad mini or my iPod touch. I have never had problems in past. Last sync, Jan. 2013

    Cannot sync my iPad mini or my iPod touch. I have never had problems in past. Last sync, Jan. 2013. Have done diagnostic on both with itunes as it does recognize them and they comes up clean. Where do I go from here?

    The music should be on your syncing computer.  Just sync the music to the iPod.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    However, the music and movie redownload is only applicable to the USA with the latest iTunes since iCloud (beta) is now available in the USA.

  • Problems with syncing new iPad touch

    We have bought my daughter a new iPad touch . I am trying to set it up for her, but it has synced all the contacts off the ipad. I tried to delete them manually from the iPod, but it also deleted them off the iPad.
    How can I delete unwanted ones off the iPod without affecting the iPad contacts?
    How can I add new contacts to either iPad or iPod without them syncing?
    Please keep any answers very very simple!!!
    Thank you.

    I too have this issue. I went through the update and I'm trying to sync and music won't go. I am doing selected sync - because I have more music than space on my itouch - but it still should work properly. I wonder how many others are having this issue.
    I got my wife's iphone to update and sync properly no problem.

  • HT1386 i tried to sync my ipad to my itunes using usb but it will say not charging,, i can sync with my ipod touch without any problem... please help..

    i tried to sync my ipad to my itunes using usb but it will say not charging,, i can sync with my ipod touch without any problem... please help..

    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060 :
    The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
    iPods need less power to charge them (their wall charger is half the power of the iPad's, 5W as opposed to 10W), so are more likely to charge via USB

  • Problem with syncing my iPad 3

    I have never experienced a problem ever since I bought my iPad3. To begin with my MBP is version 10.8.2 which is up to date and my iPad3 is 6.1 which is also up to date. Last night at work I tried syncing my iPad with my MBP wirelessly. For some reason or another it timed out and lost connection. Never has happened before while doing this wirelessly. Anyways this morning I come into work and plug the iPad up to my MBP. Same thing happens. It starts out by backing up which is step 1 of 1. It goes all the way until 4 of 4 and comes up with a message " The Ipad could not be synced because the connection to the iPad was lost." I just performed a refresh boot by holding the top button and home button at the same time until the Apple logo came back up. Tried again and same message. Thinking about taking it to the Apple Store. Applecare wanted $79 to add AC and I declined because I never do see the point in buying AC if you switch up your devices every year or so.
    If anyone has any quick feedback they can share with me I would greatly appreciate it.

    Sorry to ask but do you have iCloud backup turned on in your iPad?
    Settings-> iCloud -> Storage and Backup
    Also, I've not used the Wi-Fi option to backup but details in "Settings-> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync" state connect to iTunes on your computer using cable and click sync with This iPad over Wi-Fi. I guess this is due to me not having done this before, but maybe worth trying again?
