If you ever experience an issue where your iPad syncs but nothing happens or it syncs and there are errors then this article is for you. There have been a lot of reported sync errors with the release of iOS 4.2 and iTunes 10 and so here are some things you should look for and ways to fix your sync issues.
- If your iPad won’t sync, make sure you are using the exact USB cable that shipped with it. It has a square top and not a rounded one like the one that comes with an iPhone (usb side). This has helped several users out that were experiencing sync issues.
- If you are having issues syncing, go to software update and see if there are any updates you may not know about. Even if it only updates Safari or something for the iPhone, it may be important. Several users reported that once they did this, their sync issues cleared right up.
- Remove iTunes, QuickTime and “Mobile Devices” from your Mac or PC and then download a fresh copy and install it. This has also been reported to solve sync issues when nothing else will.
- Restore your iPad as a last resort. If you have already tried the steps above and nothing seems to be working, then restoring the iPad will take care of the issue but be aware it will erase all your data. Here is how to restore your iPad.
