Syncing my iPad to my formatted Mac Pro. I just need photos and videos sync.

I always synced my iPad to my Mac Pro. Recently I installed an SSD and therefore I did a new install of Lion. The only things I want so sync are Movies (I made with iMovie) an Photos. I don't need the apps on my mac since I can re-download them from the iCloud.
I activated this new Install of Lion for my Apple ID / iPad and I am able to sync Photos with iPad. But whenever I check the Box for Syncing Movies I get the notice that all my data will be deleted from the device.
So will everything be deleted as soon I click OK and click Sync? I read somewhere that only movies and music will be deleted. But I want to keep all Settings and Games with their settings.
Hope there is an easy solution for this
Thank you in Advance for any advice!
P.S.: I still have my Hard Drive with my old Lion installation flying around. I waited to format it and use it for Time-Machine until I knew that I copied all of files I need to the new Hard Drive.
P.S.S: I read the other day that since the newest Version of iTunes someone doesnt have to sync all the apps from iPad to mac...

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...

  • My parent's IPad is SUPER outdated and I'm trying to buy an app for my brother for Christmas. However, the computer that was connected to the IPAD, we no longer have. So is there any way I can update it on my mac without erasing all the photos and videos?

    It appears the 15" 2.2 ghz isn't worth spending $400 more for, but you get the 1GB Radeon 6750M that has four times the VRAM than the 15" 2.0Ghz model and about 167% more performance. High settings on all current games with over 50 fps.
    If your not into 3D gaming or just light weight, then the 2.0 Ghz (last years performance) will suffice on low-medium settings at about 30 fps.
    The 13" is rather poor as it has integrated graphics. 30 fps on only some games.
    The high res screen is a excellent choice and the anti-glare is great for viewing just about anywhere.
    No messy films to replace at $30-$40 a pop.
    A lot of people bring the glossy screens back once they hear about the anti-glare.

    Here's my 17"
    In my opinion the extra $400 for another 2-3 years of use out of the computer is worth it.
    Quad cores are more than enough for most uses for most people for many years, it's just a slow card is going to make the machine feel slow in rendering graphics in the future.

  • I got my New iPad in the mail yesterday. I imported my photos and videos to make a short movie. The photos had lost all their original quality. Is there any way to import photos without losing quality?

    It is a hard one.. laptops with small drives are a pain.
    What you need is a home media server.
    Some people use a PC running itunes for cost.. but that is nothing like as good as using a Mac mini.. they make great little HTPC device.. you can plug in large hard disks and store all your files and media. And share it with the network.. Read up apple's instructions on home sharing.
    https://www.apple.com/au/support/homesharing/
    For cost you can buy a mini from 2011 or 2012.. I would not recommend earlier ones.. the advantage of 2012 is they have USB3 ports. But you will pay more for them.. new mini is not as useful.. they have soldered in memory and you cannot upgrade.. the old mini was the most easily modified mac in the whole range. Uses little power and can be bought for a $300US for a good one second hand.. maybe less.

  • HT4889 How I make copy from iBooks on my iPad to iBooks on Mac Pro , without deleting my iPad books most of them not purchased books , thanks

    I want to make another copy of my iBooks on iPad to iBooks in Mac Pro device without deleting my any book from my iPad . All the books are not purchased from apple store .   Thanks 

    Hey Aggiesmommy 91,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues downloading purchased iBooks. Let’s see if we can troubleshoot this so you can enjoy those purchases.
    First, try forcing the iBooks application to close:

    If the issue persists, try restarting your iPad:

  • When I connect my iPad to my new Mac Pro, I can't see my pictures

    When I connect my iPad to my new Mac Pro, I can't see my pictures on iPhoto in Mac Pro under devices.I want to import my photos from iPad to Mac Book. Can you please help me?
    Thanks and regards,

    Oops ... You are correct. I misread your question. My sincere apologies. You want to import the photos from the iPad into iPhoto - not the other way around.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac with the cable and launch iPhoto. Your iPad should appears under the devices heading in iPhoto - in the left sidebar - just like it does in iTunes. Click on the iPad name. Then you can import the photos.

    i can't get icloud to sync my ipad notepad to my mac. it works fine for email and calendar?I have clicked the notepad setting on my iPad to ON.

    On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud. Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    On the iMac, open System Preferences > iCloud. Deselect the box next to Calendars then reselect that box then restart your iMac.

  • Mac Pro will not boot - HD and Machine are fine.

    Greetings, and thank you in advance for your wisdom.
    I have a 12-core Mac Pro, and she has been running like a dream. Once a month I run Onyx. Yesterday I did the same and upon reboot I got the grey apple screen and the spinning progress wheel that never stops spinning.
    1. I repaired the HD via Disk Utility. All is fine.
    2. The contents of the start-up drive are accessible - so the drive itself is not physically damaged.
    3. I installed a new HD and made a copy of this Start-up disk via the Disk Utility. It will not boot from this drive as well.
    4. I installed Snow Leopard (still using this) on the new drive to make sure the computer was happy. It fires up fine.
    5. Everything is disconnected from the Mac Pro
    So, I have obvious, and idiotically damaged the start-up disk using Onyx (assumption).
    My life would be much better knowing I could do something that would enable me to boot from my current start-up and that's where I seek your wisdom.
    Another question would be: If the above is not possible, if I install a fresh OS on the new drive, and then begin to replace all of the folders from the old drive (applications, library, etc.) will I be able to access my files as I did before. My issue is that I use this for music production, and there are literally close to 100 plugins that all have been registered. Going back through that process again would be days of labor, as some of these were purchases years ago. Tracking down serials would be a task. I think you understand.
    So any advice that might prevent me from having to do as I said above will be wonderful.
    Thank you all so much.
    Lance

    Under some circumstances, you may need to reinstall Mac OS X. You can reinstall Mac OS X while keeping your files and user settings intact.
    from:
    Mac OS X 10.6: Reinstalling Mac OS X
    If your Hardware is functioning correctly, and your disk has no un-repaired Directory problems [Hint: run Disk Utility ( Repair Disk ) first] then re-installing Mac OS X modifies ONLY the files that are part of Mac OS X. Your Added Applications, User files (which contain preferences and serial numbers) are not supposed to be touched.

  • TS1362 I have a Mac Pro tower, am running osx and iTunes will not work.. It basically just stopped working after having run faultlessly for...years... I can see all the songs, playlists etc, but the progress bar will not progress..it's 'stuck'. Suggestion

    I have a Mac Pro tower am running OSX and iTunes will not work. It has always worked flawlessly. I can see all my iTunes content- my playlists, my songs et cetera, But I cannot play anything. The progress bar is  'stuck'...any suggestions?

    Thanks. I have been using iTunes since its inception and have never had a problem...I'm using the latest version. The progress bar is the bar that moves when you're playing a song..it just won't start when I double click on a song,..have tried quitting, rebooting etc but nothing works. Apple are useless-they have told me twice they've tried to call me 'momentarily', but I've been waiting by the phone, and they definitely have not tried to call...

  • I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do?  How can I get the data off this disc?  I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?

    Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive.  Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth)  around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
    If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.
