Default iPad sync ...iTunes hard drive crashed

The hard drive on the desktop I had my iPad sync with crashed,, I have since replaced the computer . An now am wanting to sync my iPad to the new computer without losing anything on the iPad. Some of my ebooks are ones I have from all kinds of sources " not much music ,,I do have some videos that I can not replace.. Is there any 3rd party software that will create a complete copy of iPad and install it in iTunes ,, ICloud only takes things that have been purchased from iTunes my ebooks aremy big concern to save along with the vids

This is when you understand what they mean when they say. BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP your computer. Best buy helped me with iTunes when my crashed. I am a faithful backer upper since then.

Can you get a Carbonite subscription for an IPAD? Might be interesting to research.

My IPad, IPhone are synced through ITunes on my computer. My computer is backedup with a simple device called Clickfree. My hubby's desktop is also backed up on the same device. It is so simple to use and takes just seconds. They even have a Clickfree model that will backup all your software. I got mine from QVC for around $100. It came in handy just last week, when my computer died. Bought a new laptop, downloaded ITunes, plugged in my Clickfree and hit restore. All my pictures, music, books, favorite web sites and other documents were restored. It is a cool little device. You can choose what to restore or the whole thing. I like having a physical device as opposed to the cloud. I am too skeptical of the so called "cloud".
