Did you backup your computer? Surely computers crash, and surely you must have a backup, right?
Thank you VirtualGeo, this worked great! I didn't even restore my iPad, just transfered purchases, backed up, then clicked sync.
Just finished reading your post, about moving apps etc to a new PC..but will your instructions also work with books etc?
thanks
Any content that you purchase from iTunes, the App Store and iBooks will be transferred to the computer when you transfer purchases as described. This does not work for photos - only purchased content.
If you are in the U.S., you can also download purchased apps, music and TV shows again for free (if the content is stil available in the stores) as long as you use the same Apple ID and iTunes account that you used for the original purchase.
This looks wonderful; does it transfer everything from the iPad to the computer? Previously, when computers have crashed, or wiped themselves, I have had to download third-party software in order to transfer music, playlists, etc to the pc.
I have got as far, above, as backing up the iPad, but am loathe to restore, lest I lose anything from my iPad which is working perfectly.
