Using itunes ID as apple id on new ipad

how do I use my existing itunes id as my apple id to set up my new ipad?

you just need to sign it in, either during set up which ask you to sign in with apple id or you can go to
Settings>Store>Sign in>Use existing Apple ID

You want to restore from the backup. Do not set up as new. You can read the article that Tom posted above, but it really is pretty simple.
Transfer any purchases from the old iPad into iTunes, backup the old iPad in iTunes and them sync one more time.
Connect the new iPad and when prompted during activation, restore from the backup that you just created and then sync with iTunes.
The new iPad should be identical to the old iPad, but you will have to enter some passwords again on the new device.

How to backup and restore from a backup

HT201269 I have lost my iPhone 3GS. It was backed up to my computer using iTunes. I now have a new iPhone 4 series from a friend. How can I restore the backup information for my previous phone to the new phone?

I have lost my iphone 3GS. It was backed up to my macbook pro using itunes. I now have a new iphone series 4 (china model). How can I access the backup information for my old phone and put it on my new one?

Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
Sync Contacts:
Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
Sync Calendars:
Your calendars are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more. And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should. On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much. I will post a note in the app store to let them know. I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine.
Starbucks app works as it should.
I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

1 apple id; 2 new ipads; 1 ipad as a gift; Don't want to share apple id password

Hi. 1 apple id; 2 new ipads; Will give 1 new ipad to my son back home in the Philippines. Same apps; But I don't want to give my apple id password; Even if he buys an itunes gift card to redeem apps or install free apps, ipad will ask for apple id password before installing; He is 7 years old and I don't want other people to buy apps using my apple id, password, credit card. Could someone please help and show me the best way how to go about this... Thanks...

I don't think there is a y way to do what you want. Apps are tied to an iTunes account, not a device, and your son will either need to use that password or set up a new iTunes account, in which case the apps already on there can not be updated.

ITunes asks me to register my new iPad every time I open it

I just bought a new iPad a few weeks a go and registered it on my mac the very day. But ever since iTunes keeps asking me to register my new iPad. I checked, My Support Profile, and Apple has the New iPad's serial number registered with my account. Any one come across this problem?

Don't know if this brings you any comfort, but I just got mine today, and am getting the same problem. Also, when I run diagnostics, it says it can't find the IPod - but the thing did sync and does work. I also checked to see if it was registered on the Apple site, and it is.

I synced iTunes from my computer to a new iPad. All of my purchases appear and are listed as downloaded, but none of the will play. Any ideas?

I synced iTunes from my computer to a new iPad. My purchased music appears as normal in the list and is designated as downloaded, but none of it will play. Any ideas of what I can do?

try resetting the device by holding down the home and sleep key, past the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.
Also, try finding a free app, any free app, download it on your ipad then see if that gets your others to work.You can delete the free app if it works (or if it doesn't for that matter)

How to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

how to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
You will have to contact iTunes Store Support and ask for their help. You can email them from here.

i am using a GLOBE prepaid microsim for my new ipad with retina. i was registered with supersurf 999, and i was able to enjoy my internet connection until i updated my ios with 6.1... since then, every time i go online,it says i am not registered with mobile internet... however, when i insert the microsim on my broadband, i can actually go online... what to do??? my apn setting in internet.globe.com.ph which is for prepaid users...

PS - I just sent this to a few of my friends in the big hardware review sites, as well as a few apple execs:
Whats up guys? Its your old buddy dom "battleship mtron author , 9 ssd drives in raid 0" years ago. lol
I wanted to fill you in on a HUGE problem with the new ios 6 update.
My iphone 4 updated without a hitch.
My ipad 3 on the other hand has a HUGE PROBLEM. It is essentially a brick without wifi (since the device relies on wifi for just about every task).
There are currently hundreds of a users within the last 2 hours reporting the same error on the apple discussions site.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19626235#19626235
What happens is simple:
1. Download and install the update on Ipad 3.
2. Try and connect to your normal wifi connection.
3. It will connect for a few seconds and than fail stating "no internet connection available"
4. It is no a brick without wifi accessibility. (unless we revert to ios 5)
I have tried resetting my router. Resetting settings on the ipad. Renewing the ip address both LOCALLY and through the WAN at the cable modem and rebooting all of my networking equipment (ie: router), I even tried doing a complete wipe and re-install of ios 6 fresh. You guys know I am a tech geek from my background and I have tried everything so I just wanted to fill you in on this potential problem for apple.

How do you use itunes to transfer pics from windows to Ipad?

How do you use itunes to transfer pics from windows to Ipad? I went under "advanced" under itunes and found photo sharing, but when connecting my Ipad to computer,nothing happens.

With the iPad connected to your computer and with iTunes running and the iPad selected - You sync the photos within iTunes by selecting the folder from which you want to sync on your computer - while in the photos pane in iTunes.

Why didn't apple cal the new Ipad the iPad 3???

Why didn't apple cal the new Ipad the iPad 3???

Apple has not explained why, so nobody here could tell you for sure. Perhaps to keep it in line with naming polices for computers (all iMacs are iMacs, all MacBook Airs are MacBook Airs) rather than the iPhone.

Is it real? apple change to new ipad If i bought ipad in a month?

My friend sad apple change to new ipad. If people buy in a month..
Is it right?

If you bought it from Apple then there is normally a 14 day returns period, though apparently some US stores are extending that to 30 days - I haven't seen any posts about the same extension in other countries. If you bought the iPad from a different store then you will need to check that store's returns policy (Apple won't accept iPads bought from other companies).

Why Apple deleted the new iPad (refer A1416 ) supposedly "the iPad 3" that Many people we bought before june last year Of their web site

Why Apple deleted the new iPad (refer A1416 ) supposedly "the iPad 3" that Many people we bought before june last year Of their web site. I say this because the Apple store sold me the new Apple in this moment, but really two months after arrive other model with better things, retina, HD, etc

There is no "unfair trade" in releasing the next version soon after the last version. No "unfair trade" in releasing the new version the day after the last version. No one made any statement or guarantee that a new version would be a year away. Yes, most people who bought the "iPad 3" expected it would be a year before another release and, yes, some (or many) were not happy about the iPad 4 coming out so soon. There may have been some trust or love lost beween those consumers and Apple but there is nothing illegal or improper about it.

When I got a new iPad a week ago, I created a new Apple ID so that all of my other "stuff" wouldn't sync onto my new iPad filling it up! However, I do have an app that I paid for on my on my iPhone that I'd like to put on my iPad, how do I do that?

Sync it to your iPad with iTunes. First check the app store to be sure it is compatible with an iPad (not all iPhone apps are). If it is, first confirm that the app is in your iTunes library by opening iTunes clicking on the apps folder, and checking if the app is there. If it isn't, add it to your library by connecting your phone to iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Once it's in your library, connect your iPad, click on the name of your iPad in iTunes, go to the Apps tab of your iTunes sync settings, locate the app in question and click "Install" next to the app, then click on Apply at the bottom to sync your iPad.

Problem using iTunes restore to transfer library to new PC

I have used iTunes 8 to back up my entire library to 5 DVDs following the instructions at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382
When I insert the DVDs in my new PC I get the option in iTunes to restore from the DVD's - which I do. However about 50% of my music is missing after restoring from the 5 DVDs - also none of the Playlists are restored.
Any ideas on what is hapenning here?

OK so some more detail.
As I restore from each DVDs it goes fine for while - but eventually a dialog pops up saying that I do not have enough privileges to write to C drive. It happens at a different place each time. When it happens it stops copying from that DVD and asks for the next one. I have checked and I have write privileges for the music and library folders. Any ideas?
