Chapter 3: Sync Your iPad with iTunes > Syncing Media and More
Syncing Media and More
Now let's look at how to set up an automatic sync for music, movies, iBooks, iTunes U content, and more.
CAUTION: Make sure you're logged into iTunes with the same iTunes account you want to use on your iPad, as Digital Rights Management (DRM)–protected content (music, videos, and more) won't sync unless both accounts match. You can logout and log in to iTunes on both your desktop and your iPad to make sure you are logged into the right accounts.
Keeping an Eye on Capacity (Available Space)
As you begin to select ringtones, music, videos, books, podcasts, and more to sync, you will want to keep an eye on the capacity bar at the bottom of each of the iTunes sync screens. If you see that you are nearing or exceeding capacity with any of your selections, you know you need to make a few adjustments. Sometimes you just can't take it all with you! Figure 3–14 shows that we currently have 15.6 GB (gigabytes) free on our iPad for more content—so we have plenty of free space.
