Hi all,

Just picked up my Ipad 2 and this is the first time ever owning an ipad. Just a quick question, I have a ton of apps for my Iphone but I don't want them to go on my Ipad. I simply want to put the apps made for the Ipad on there, is there a way to auto-sync that or do I need to pick and choose? :confused:
 
Once you plug it in, just go to the Apps tab and browse the apps that you have there. Click on the ones you want to sync and that's that.
 
If you transfer all your apps you can delete the iPhone apps from the iPad when you open them and find they are iPhone only. Once they are deleted they will not be replaced the next time you sync.
 
Only problem are the few apps that are not separated between iPhone and iPad versions. Netflix predominantly comes to mind, as it is one download that works for both devices. I did mine manually, because I still have an iPhone.
