I have logged into iTunes with the same account on both the iPad and laptop.
Any ideas?

HELP - trouble syncing ipad and itunes

Hello - hopefully someone can help...before my head explodes.
I've been trying to sync my ipad with my itunes and I continue to receive the following error message: the ipad Kelly's Ipad cannot be synced - the required file cannot be found in addition to the following message on my ipad itself: itunes sync needed high resolution images synced via itunes are missing. connect your device to the computer you sunc photos from and launch itunes to sync them.
I have not done anything differently here...I've synced the same way millions of times. Nothing has changed. Anybody have any thoughts on this..???

After endless months of frustration about why my iPad would sometimes sync just fine and other times I'd keep getting the popup message:
iPad could not be synced because it could not be found
While perusing some Apple users' documentation for my old, first generation iPad, I finally found this one sentence buried deep:
iPad must be connected to a power source in order for it to sync.
So, it's not enough for your WiFi to be correctly configured and enabled on both the sending and receiving ends, you must have your device plugged into a power source anyway. Yes, it seems counter-intuitive because we tend to think of WiFi as doing away with the need for wires.

Syncing my iPAD and laptop

I presently have a Blackberry, IPAD and laptop.
I have signed up to mobile me in an effort to synchronise my diaries, contacts, etc but am unaware if the Blackberry is causing the problem. Can I get just the laptop and IPAD to sync using mobile me and if so, how?
Thanks

Hi and welcome.....
MobileMe does not support Blackberry. If you are using Bluetooth on your Blackberry, turn that off if it's in range of your iPad.
In order to sync your MobileMe account with your iPad, you need to sync first with your computer.
Connect your iPad to your PC. Launch iTunes. Make sure iTunes recognizes the iPad under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Select the Info tab from the menu. Select the Address Book Contacts / Calendars / Mail Accounts. Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.
If you have problems after the sync is completed, click here.

My ipad and laptop were stolen, how can I get my data back?

Both my ipad and laptop were stolen. Ive downloaded itunes onto a new laptop but none of my files are there. I was using iCloud.Can anyone help?

You're music can be downlooaded (if it was purchased using iTunes) have you signed into your account in iTunes on the new laptop?
If the music was not purchased from iTunes and you are using iTunes Match you can also download it. If you are not using iTunes Match music that was not purchased from iTunes is gone.

I'm trying to figure out why I have to download them again. Why when I downloaded music to the iphone, the ipad didn't receive the music also automatically?
Because they are two separate devices.

Hi, I have apple account/password on laptop but can't use the same ID etc on new Ipad. On my account it says ID is only for 1 system. I really want only one ID for both Ipad and laptop. Thanks

It seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

Ipad and Laptop yearly service

Who do I talk to at Apple. When I bought my ipad and laptop nobody asked me if I wanted to join the Apple training system yearly. I understand you can only sign up when you buy them but was not aware of that and was not asked.

Simple, you were not told about 121 probably because its only available when you buy a laptop or desktop. iPad and iPhone are not eligible.
Or maybe that terminology is not used everywhere, Victor: I'm on my third Apple laptop and the term is new to me -- though I do have AppleCare (1 year extended to 3 yrs); is that 121?

I have just deleted 6000 emails from my ipad and laptop leaving about 100, but my ipad still says my mail is taking up 3.7 GB of space. How can I fix this?

do a reboot. press and hold both the home and sleep buttons intil you see the apple logo. ignore the red slider. Also, make sure the mail app is fully closed. doulbe tap to see the task bar, then swipe up on the mail app.

How do I sync my email so I don't have to delete it on my iPad and Comcast acct on laptop

I don't believe that Comcast uses IMAP, unfortunately. The best solution might be to access your email through Comcast's specialized app: http://xfinity.comcast.net/learn/internet/mobile-iphone-itouch-ipad/

Trouble syncing iphone5 and ipad now that I have Yose

Help please. I just upgraded to Yosemite on my MacBook pro not realizing that I would need iOS8 on my iPhone 5 and ipad in order to sync through the cloud. I can't download iOS8 on my phone because there isn't enough storage. I did clear off as much stuff off my phone as I could and still don't have enough space. Need 3 GB more. This iPhone is new. I don't want to buy a new phone. How can I go back to Mavericks? Or how can I go forward?

Hi tbalco,
If you are having an issue with updating your iPhone's operating system over the air because of a lack of memory space, you may want to use iTunes to do the update instead. This does not use nearly as much space on the iPhone as an over the air update. See this article for how -
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Specifically -
Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
Plug in your device to your computer.
In iTunes, select your device.
In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
Click Download and Update.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Having trouble syncing iPad to get movies onto it.....any ideas?

For some reason I am having trouble syncing movies onto my iPad. They are in my iTunes library, I check the box hit apply/sync then nothing.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Been there, done that...........
It appears that when I sync it seems the sync is syncing the computer with the iPad not iPad with computer.
I have delegated all movies on iPad when I check some movies on iTunes it adds the purple bar at the bottom and availability of space decreases accordingly. When I hir apply/sync it goes through the process then when finishes step four the purple bar at the bottom goes and available space increases again.

My computer died, but I have 2 iPads and an iPod. How can I sync iPad and iPod to update iTunes library on ipod?

Computer died that I use to sync to itunes to iPod. Can I sync iTunes library using iPad and iPod?

iDevices cannot sync to one another, they only sync to a computer or iCloud.
