Unable to see my library to sync my iPhone and iPad on my new iMac.
I've just replaced my iMac and cannot see my library on the sync window.
I have entered the library location into preferences but it will not see the library at all.
Hence I am unable to sync music to my iPhone and ipad
Hi ..
Syncing your music can be done via iTunes connecting your devices via USB to the iMac.
This process is not done via preferences.
You may need to authorize the new iMac.
Launch iTunes.
From the iTunes menu bar click Store > Authorize This Computer
Then sync your music > Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support

Migrate your iTunes library from the previous computer, or see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device if that is no longer possible.

If I add a new account user,can I sync my iPhone and iPad to that account without effecting the other user? I'm trying to sync my iPhone and iPad to a new account on a computer I am now sharing after my computer died.
Don't create a new iTunes account.
Just update everything with new info/change password/ security questions.

I have had several computers in recent years and when i try to sync my iphone and ipad to my new computer, it says it cant because the devices are registered on too many computers. I only need them synced up to two computers - how do i fix this?
In iTunes, under the "Store" menu, you can select "Deauthorize this computer". That will remove that computer from your iTunes account and free up a spot for the new computer.
If you have already sold or wiped your previous computers, you can log into your iTunes account from the Store menu in iTunes by selecting "View My Account xxxx@xxxx". Once you are logged in, about 1/4 the way down the page it will tell you that you have "xx computers are authorized......". Beside that you have the option to deauthorize all of the connected devices. That is the only option, you will have to deauthorize all and then set up the ones you want to use.
I think 10 is the maximum number of devices that can sync to one iTunes account. -
I just purchased a new computer and downloaded I tunes but when I go to sync my iphone and ipad touch my library from my old computer doesn't show up on the new one. Only the purchased itune songs come up. How do I get my original itunes library?
Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?

Hi All, I am using iphone in UAE and ipad in India usinging same apple id. Earlier I could do imessage to my Ipad with different name but with software update,I am unable to do, as signing id for the iphone and ipad is same.How to restore back
I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps -
I got a new computer and need to sync my iPhone and ipad on it, how do i do that without losing all data. I need help ASAP!
If you still have the old computer see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
If you don't have your old computer, but you made regular backups of it, restore the most recent backup using the backup software that you used to make the backup. You will have to read the instructions for it.
If you don't have your old computer and you did not back it up regularly see: Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive -

HT5295 How to sync between iPhone and iPad?
How to sync between iPhone and iPad at Podcasts app?
Please elaborate - share what?
Just guessing here...
Any sharing is probably a result of being logged in with the same Apple ID on both devices.
For apps/music: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads OFF.
For iCloud: Settings > iCloud > Delete Account.
For iMessage: Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. -
I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3. Any suggestions?
All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

Sync my iphone and ipad 1 to keep game scores
how do i sync my iphone and ipad 1 to keep game scores
Game score / syncing has to built into the app by the game developer. It's done either thru GameCenter (that should be installed on your iPad, if iOS has been upgraded), or by the game itself. Read instructions and check settings for the specific game.
