Important: To avoid duplicates, keep contacts, calendars, and notes in sync using iCloud or iTunes, but not both.

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.
