How to Transfer Music from iPad to iPad in Proven Ways


Transferring music from one iPad to another is more complicated than transferring photos, mainly due to copyright protection. As a result, there are limited convenient features on the iPad, such as AirDrop, that can be used to facilitate music transfer, although music information can be shared via AirDrop.

Then how can you transfer music from iPad to iPad?

Fortunately, transferring music from one iPad to another isn't impossible, even with varying levels of difficulty. There are proven methods that allow you to transfer music between iPads, with or without the use of iTunes or a computer.

How to Transfer Music from iPad to iPad with iTunes

Using iTunes to share music from one iPad to another is a workable but not recommended solution, only applicable for transferring purchased music. This process involves transferring music from the source iPad to iTunes, then syncing that music from iTunes to the target iPad, which is more complex and less straightforward than the other methods.

To transfer music from one iPad to another:

Step 1. To connect your old iPad to your computer, you will need to use a USB cable to physically connect the two devices. Once they are connected, your computer should recognize the iPad and allow you to access its contents, including any data you want to transfer or backup.

Step 2. To transfer purchases from your iPod to your computer, launch iTunes and navigate to the "File" menu, then select "Devices" and choose "Transfer Purchases from [your iPod name]."

Step 4. Connect the new iPad to this computer and click on your device icon.

Step 5. From the expanded section, choose "Songs."

Step 6. Right-click the music files you want to transfer and choose "Add to Device."
