Transferring from an old ipad to a new one I have just bought a new ipad mini. I did the "transfer" process from my old one to my new one. And it seemed to work perfectly - except for one thing. None of the email addresses appear to have come over to the new Ipad email system on the new machine. But the email logins and passwords did - what more do I need to do to get all the old addresses back?

New iPad and synching Today I bought a new iPad, and linked it to the same Apple ID as my old iPad. I want to stop Mail synching between the both of them. I have unselected Mail in the iCloud settings on both, but still the Mail apps are synching. I want to remove all emails from the old iPad and have them on the new one. I have also deselected the old iPad on the iTunes devices section... but even when I connect the new iPad to my iMac it does not show up in devices. I want to let my husband use the old iPad for reading the newspaper, browsing etc, but without access to my emails. I've been google searching but haven't come up with anything. Hope someone can help please.

No. Properly preparing the iPad prior to trade-in will not impact data on other devices.
