Important: Don’t sync items in the Info pane of iTunes (such as contacts, calendars, and notes) and also use iCloud to keep that information up to date on your devices. Otherwise, you may see duplicated data on iPad.

You can also choose to manually manage content from iTunes by selecting that option in the iPad Summary pane. Then you can drag songs or videos from your iTunes library to iPad in iTunes. This is useful if your iTunes library contains more items than can fit on your iPad.

Note: If you use iTunes Match, you can manually manage only video.

The Apple MD510LL/A, MD528LL/A, MD512LL/A, MD330LL/A, and MD513LL/A represent a suite of devices from Apple that have contributed significantly to the landscape of mobile technology. Each model, while serving similar purposes, has its unique set of features and characteristics that cater to different user needs.

The MD510LL/A, more commonly known as the iPad mini with Retina Display, is celebrated for its compact size and high-resolution screen.

The device also supports Wi-Fi and 4G LTE, ensuring constant connectivity.

Next, the MD528LL/A, which is part of the iPad Air lineup, further pushes the envelope in terms of power and design.
