Syncing new Ipad to iTunes??

I have an iPhone4 that is synced to my laptop for itunes... I just got my 1st iPad, (new one), and was wondering if I use my laptop to sync to iTunes also??
Or will it delete all my iPhone stuff?

Won't be an issue. iTunes will easily differentiate between the two separate devices.

Sync new iPad with iTunes

When I am trying to sync my new iPad the new one asks for a password. I cannot use my current iPad password, nor my ITunes password and it keeps resetting.

Hmm, is Whitson's iPad the current name of the device, or an earlier iPad? Does that image you've shown occupy the entire iTunes window or is the usual column of library sources and playlists shown down the left-hand side. If the list is there then the iPad should appear as a device that you can right/option/cmd-click on. Failing that with all your purchases having come from the store you should be able to set up as new device and then reacquire all your store content but that would lose any data and settings. I suppose that after restoring as new, then backing up to the machine, you could then try restoring the backup from the cloud, and then if needed go through the original process as I suggested.
You might find that if you opt to set up as new nothing actually changes until you choose some content to sync, which may give you the opportunity to use the process I've previously outlined. Sorry I can't be clearer but I know that method has worked for a few people who have had to switch computers after a crash. I'm not personally familiar with the process under your precise circumstances.
The "cut the cord" feature which allowed you to set up the device without connecting to a computer is all well and good but if you have to go through this sort of effort when the time comes that you want to hook up your device to a library on your computer it becomes a complete nightmare.

Syncing new IPad to iTunes...dramas!

Hello! So I've a pretty basic understanding so bear with me...
My iTunes account was synced to my old laptop, which is now completely broken beyond repair. I have a new iPad mini but so far I can't find any way to sync it to my iTunes account without connecting it to the original laptop, which is obviously not an option. Help!!!
Thanks, Danni

Ideally, you would simply restore a backup of your old (broken) computer to your new computer, and pick right up where you left off before your computer broke.
Failing that approach, here are some tips:

Can they go out of my account? Their content is saved on their iPads, but can another iCloud be on the same home computer?

The syncing of music is one way, computer to phone. See this helpful document from a fellow user. Credit goes to the author.

If it's not too late, see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. As long as you have a backup of the device when the device still held your photos you should stand a chance of recovering them using a tool such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

IPad (4th Gen Retina Display Wi-Fi) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows). Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply. Any other solution?

iPad (Retina Display) (iOS 7.0.4) won't sync new music from iTunes (Windows). Only solution found was to uncheck "Sync Music" under Music tab, apply, then recheck "Sync Music" and apply. This is timely and aggravating. Any other solution?
I have also tried a hard reset. I have also gone into settings and checked "display all music".
Anyone know if the new update will have solutions to this problem?

Successful experience with Apple Care.
If anyone is having the same problem, there's a chance it's an issue with the Mobile Device Manager for iTunes. The key is to ditch the old/corrupt file and replace it via clean iTunes installation.
Here's the fix that worked for me:
1. Trash iTunes (uninstall); don't forget to trash it from your dock if you have it there.
2. Head to /System/Library/Extensions/ and trash file AppleMobileDevice.kext
3. Head to /Library/Receipts/ and trash AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg ( * this may or may not be there * )
4. Restart computer (& empty trash)
5. Download fresh & clean iTunes and reinstall.
Voila! The content is now properly recognized by iTunes, the capacity bar registers the correct amount and type beyond "Other", and now I can put music back on the iPad.

You can select the calendar to sync in the Info Tab in the iTunes window on the right, when your iPad is connected to the Mac , while iTunes is running and after you select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading.

That's probably not a good idea to try to share apps since you will have to switch ID's each time you update apps and sync apps from iTunes.
And technically - according to Apple's terms - you cannot share apps using different ID's. You can actually lock yourself out of an ID for 90 days if you switch ID's and if you associate the iPad with another ID.
The bold type is a copy and paste from the site that I referenced below.
When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.

HT1386 Why didn't the the books and PDFs in my iBooks app on my iPhone transfer to my iPad 3 when I synced my iPad in iTunes on my computer

Why didn't the contents of my iBook app on my iPhone transfer to my new iPad 3 when I synced the iPad in iTunes on my computer.? HELP PLEASE

Are all books and PDF files available in the iBooks app on your iPhone available in your iTunes library on your computer?
If so, is this content selected under the Books tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?

How do I sync new ipad mini and iphone 4s?

Make a backup of the iPhone, connect the iPad to the computer and iTunes and restore from that backup.

Cannot sync the ipad with iTunes

I synced the new iPad with iTunes and every photo I had on the Mac (I didn't know that I wouldn't be ask first) went to the iPad. Now I cannot sync the iPad to delete the photos because there is not enough memory to properly sync with iTunes. Can anyone help me correct this?

This is not selected by itself - this is selected under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes, which must be manually selected or is selected automatically when transferring the backup from another iOS device to the iPad if this is selected under the Photos tab for the other iOS device.
Have you tried deselecting Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?

I just upgraded to iTunes 12 and had all sorts of problems. After several restores I seem to be able to sync my iPad with iTunes BUT I can't delete anything off my iPad from iTunes. Any ideas on what to do?

How do i sync my ipad to itunes to restore my passcode

how do i sync my ipad to itunes to restore my passcode

When you connect your iPad to your computer, select your iPad from the devices list in iTunes. You will see a series of tabs in the window that say things such as; "summary," "info'" etc. select the "Apps" tab. From here, you will see a long list of all of the applications in your iTunes library. On the bottom of the list, you will see. checked box that is followed by the statement, "Automatically sync new apps." Uncheck this box. Now, in the list of the apps in your library, you will see that everything already has a check next to it. Uncheck the apps that you do not want to sync. The next time you sync your device, it should only sync the content that you have selected. Beat of luck.

HT3819 i originally synced my ipad to itunes on my computer before I found out about home sharing. Since I set up home sharing, can I remove the synced library? It seems to be taking up space

i originally synced my ipad to itunes on my computer before I found out about home sharing. Since I set up home sharing, can I remove the synced library? It seems to be taking up space and I'd like to free it up.

I don't think I have made myself clear... I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5 so everything was set up to sync with no problems at all. I transferred everything across to my new device by iCloud and everything appears as it was on my old device including on the face of it my music library. However, I cannot play all of the songs in fact the majority! When at home I can access the entire library via home sharing but that is no use away from the house. I never had this problem with iPhone 4 and although I am automatically syncing the device to iTunes it is not working. If I try to play songs via the device it skips until it finds a song that cAn be played and if I try and play the device via the laptop/iTunes an ! Type signal appears and I cannot play the song!
Any ideas re solutions would be appreciated???
