Sync with iTunes
Syncing with iTunes copies information from your computer to iPad, and vice
versa. You can sync by connecting iPad to your computer, or you can set up
iTunes to sync wirelessly using Wi-Fi. You can set iTunes to sync music, videos,
apps, photos, and more. For help syncing iPad, open iTunes on your computer,
choose Help > iTunes Help, then select Add items to iPod, iPhone, or iPad.
iTunes is available at www.itunes.com/download/.
Set up wireless syncing.
Connect iPad to your computer. In iTunes on your computer, select your iPad,
click Summary, then select Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi.
If Wi-Fi syncing is turned on, iPad syncs when it’s connected to a power source,
both iPad and your computer are on and connected to the same wireless
network, and iTunes is open on your computer.
Ways to sync with iTunes on your computer
Connect iPad to your computer, select it in iTunes, then set options in the
different panes.
If iPad doesn’t appear in iTunes, make sure you’re using the latest version of
iTunes, check that the included cable is correctly connected, then try
restarting your computer.
In the Summary pane, you can set iTunes to sync iPad automatically when it’s
attached to your computer. To temporarily prevent syncing when you attach
the device, hold down Command and Option (Mac) or Shift and Control (PC)

If you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes
makes a backup, select “Encrypt iPad backup” in the Summary pane.
Encrypted backups are indicated by a lock icon , and a password is
required to restore the backup. If you don’t select this option, other
passwords (such as those for mail accounts) aren’t included in the backup
and you’ll have to reenter them if you use the backup to restore iPad.
In the Info pane, click Advanced to select options that let you replace the
information on iPad with the information from your computer during the next
sync.
In the Music pane, you can sync your entire music library or just selected
playlists, artists, albums, and genres.

to iPad.
