I just updated iTunes and successfully backed up my iPhone, but it won’t backup my iPad Air 2. It only gives me two choices: set up as new iPad or restore from previous backup. I realized that I had the iPad set to Cloud backup so I turned that off, but still no luck. It sees the name of the iPad but not that it already has 30GB worth of apps and data. Any thoughts?
Thank you, I totally misunderstood what that meant! It’s working fine now.

Hello,
If you tap on “Set up as new iPad” it should not erase your device. It will just associate your iPad to your Macintosh or Windows PC.
I agree, it does look a bit scary! I am happy to hear all is working as it should.
Yes, but all is good now. Thanks again!
You are very welcome!
