Why will my ipad 2 not show up when I plug in

Cannot get my ipad to be recognised on itunes. what a waste of money

Have a look at your firewall, it's probably blocking the iPad. If you are using a third party firecwall, such as AVG 2012 or McAfee etc... go to their website and search their knowledgebase for iTunes issues and follow the directions given. If you are using Windows firewall, go to Microsoft.com and search the KB for iTunes issues and follow the instructions.

Why will my iPad 2 not recognize any iPod cables? I have tried two different cables in both the wall and in my laptop, but it will not register that it is receiving power, nor will the laptop recognize that they are connected.

Crizzo is right, the best way to charge is with the included power block. That said, the USB cords are interchangable as far as an of us know. (just not power bricks, iPhone and iPod bricks put out 5W of power, the iPad wants 10W and will always say 'not charging' if plugged into less power than it requires even though it will charge, just very slowly)
If you have tried to charge your iPad - with the iPad charger - with multiple cables and multiple computers and get no joy then it's time to head to the apple store and have them check it out. The 30 pin USB port can go bad - mine did - and it's a manufacturer's defect (unless there's any sort of obvious damage) and should be covered under the warranty;

Why is my iPad is not showing up in the Devices list in iBook Author?

Why is my iPad not showing up in the Devices list in iBook Author? iBook ver is up to date. iTunes sees the iPad. What gives...
Message was edited by: drydruid

OK, the problem is partly solved. iBooks Author is not 'smart' enough to realize the iPad had been plugged-in and iBook on if all that happens after iBooks Author is already started. On the off chance that that was the problem I Quit iBA, made sure the iPad was connected and iBook was on then restarted iBA. Sure enough, there it was.
I really like Mac's but sometimes they're not as smart as they think they are.

Why is my iPad calendar not showing older entries?

Why isn't my iPad2 calander not showing entries past 5 weeks old?

when you sync the calendar you have the option to not sync events older than.....and you choose the days.
Is things disappearing off your calendar or are you maybe just not syncing older items?
you can access the calendar controls with your iPad attached to your computer and iTunes open then navigate to the 'info' tab. If you set it to 0 it'll sync everything.

I have pulled pictures off of my windows desktop to a jump drive to try to put them on my macbook pro (OS 10.7) but they do not show up when I plug in the jump drive.

I have pulled pictures off of my windows desktop onto a usb jumpdrive to transfer to my macbook pro (OSX10.7). when I plug it into my macbook I do not see the picture files. Does OSX not recognize certain files from windows? They are standard .jpg files.

Hello RumDog,
I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
Where are my iTunes files located?

Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
You can then:
Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

Why does my iPad backup not show up in iTunes?

Everytime I attempt to backup my iPad, the screen on the iPad goes to the Apple logo startup and either holds on that or intermittently comes back w/ the "Sync in Progress" message. I let it go all the way to completion...it appears in iTunes as if alll is normal (albeit slow). When it completes I check iTunes to see if it's available to restore from and it doesn't show on the list. My hard disk has obviously gotten 20 or so GB more full and there's a new backup file in the Mobile Sync library directory. I have scoured the message boards about this particular problem and have tried almost everything suggested. I delete the backup folder. I do a hard reset on the iPad. I have deleted and removed as much as I can from the iPad and gotten about 5GB of space. I upgraded my MBP OS from Leopard to Snow Leopard. Some have mentioned deleting and re-installing iTunes, but I figured the OS refresh basically was the equivalent of that. Any other suggestions? Could I/should I consider backing up to my work MBP or is the problem in the iPad itself? Would love to not have to wipe my iPad and lose music and other original files I don't have backed up. But also am patiently waiting to upgrade to iOS 5!
iPad 32 GB WiFi
MBP 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM
Snow Leopard 10.6.8

These are the instructions for that specific code.
Error 40265xxxx: Errors of the 40265xxxx range generally occur during the restore-from-a-backup phase, after iOS has been installed on the device. Restoring the device and setting up as new can resolve the issue. Before restoring as new, take steps to preserve the previous backups created by iTunes, such as copying the contents of the Backup directory onto the desktop. See iPhone and iPod touch: About backups to learn where backups are stored for your computer's operating system and additional precautionary notes regarding setting up as new. The backups created by iTunes store data such as your SMS, Favorites, Bookmarks, and other app data.

I think you are going to have to restore as new. Deleting that MobileSync backup folder may have caused the problem. When you delete the backup from iTunes like I was asking about, you are only deleting one particular backup. If you have multiple iDevices - all of the backups would be in that one folder - I think that's how it works.
Read the article - even though the heart and soul of it has been pasted into this link already.

Why does the iPad AppStore not show sub categories ?

I always search around on my iPhone and come across a new app but on the iPad you can only see featured apps, is there a reason why it is like this, why we can't browse apps like on the iPhone.

Dude why do you have to be a nub? You know what he means. Don't suggest using your computer to search. That is ignorant. The whole point in getting a iPad is to replace using a computer for easy day to day usage. Especially in this case. Searching the iPad app store is a joke. I been messing around with this thing for a hour trying to do stuff that takes seconds on my iPhone. There is they key statement. iPhone! Can you say iPhone? The iPhone has a superior search function to the iPad. There is absolutely positively no reason get go sit at my computer to search apps when I can do everything I want from the comfort of my bed on my iPhone at night. So apple got it right on the iPhone but dropped the ball on the iPad app store. Sure I can search from my iPhone but I want to search iPad specific apps in the RPG games category. Is that to much to ask? The iPhone already does it so don't say goto your computer. I have bought a ton of games I didn't even know I wanted by searching sub categories on my iPhone. I'd like to think this was a oversight that will be fixed but looking at older post it seems this has been the case for awhile, so it leads me to believe there is some evil pay apple to get yours apps featured thing going on.

Why will my iPad mini not turn on FaceTime in settings?

Seriously, I can't use FaceTime at all on my iPad mini, because it thinks that I have FaceTime turned off in settings, but I don't!

Most USB port do not supply enough current to charge the iPad.
iPhone only need a 5W charger.
iPad however need a 10W or 12W charger.

HT4623 Why will my iPad 1 not update to ios 7?

HT1766 Why is my iCloud backup not showing up when i try to ste up my replacement iPhone?

I just got my iPhone replaced and the man put all my data in iCloud. When I got to a Sprint store, the phone said there was no back up data. I've tried a million times and still can't do it. Please help.

Are you running iOS 5.1.1? If not, you may need to update the phone before you can access your backup. (You can't restore the phone to a backup made on a phone running a newer version of the iOS than the phone you are restoring from.)

Ipad error not enough power when i plug in a usb hub

whenever i plug in a usb stick i get an error power not enough

The iPad doesn't provide enough power in order for most USB sticks or card readers to work (the amount of power was reduced in iOS 4+), but you could try a powered reader. I don't know what you want to transfer off the stick, but the camera connection kit is only designed for transferring photos and videos - you can't transfer, for example, music or documents that way.
