I erased everything from my iPad (from 2013), and want everything (apps, music, pictures) and home the screen synched to match my iPhone 6.
I thought if I just restored the iPad to factory settings, then connected it to my computer with iTunes, I could synch it to match the iPhone, but I can't.
Anybody know how?
Thanks.

To truly sync the devices is not an option, as they're meant to function independently. You could achieve the look you want manually.

It's probably a lot faster to do it through iTunes on your computer than on the iPad.

If you use the same apple ID on both that will do most of it. It won't synch everything, but many things will be synched. There are some settings you need to set up, such as setting apps downloaded to one automatically being downloaded to the other. Using iCloud Photo Library on both means they will synch. so both will be the same photos. There may be more settings, but these are off the top of my head.

There are a few ways to have the same apps and files on the iPhone, iPod, and iPad, and here is one of them. But I always do things manually (not by syncing):
