I getting "waiting for changed to be applied" when syncing my pc Itunes to my Ipad

It "finds" my ipad, then "starts the sync" but then it says "waiting for changes to apply". I just updated my Itunes to the 11.01 version and this is a brand new Ipad so im assuming it doesn't need an update. I have my ipad connected to the same wireless as my computer, Itunes open, and my Ipad plugged into a power source charging.

What am I doing wrong??

Yes it finishes. That's just the last step in the process. Just wait until it stops. You can watch the progress bar at the top - which I know you are already doing - and when everything finishes, it will just quit.


I sync over WiFi and the very last thing that I see on the screen is a window that pops up with the words - "looking for iPad" and it has the blue and white barber's pole (that's what I call it anyway) that rotates until the sync finally ends. That window stays on the screen for about 3 or 4 seconds.


there is a very easy way to test to see if the sync does complete if you are that concerned about it. Download a free app on the iPad and when you sync, it should transfer into iTunes. Check your apps after you sync and it the app shows up in your iTunes library, then you know that the sync was completed.


I'm sure you are fine, but that would be a way to check. But what you are seeing is absolutely normal and expected behavior when you sync.
