Can you transfer files from Macbook Pro to iPad Air via USB ?

Hi ,
Can you use that USB adapter to transfer photos / .pdf`s / .mp3`s and so forth ?
I have a MBP-R + MM , and would like to be able to use the newer iPad Air for veiwing photos as well as .pdf`s , I got the music part , just sync with iTunes.
Many thanks !

iTunes, when your iPad Air is plugged in via USB to your computer and selected in iTunes, has a tab for Books which can transfer your PDFs to iBooks.  It also has a tabs for Photos.
If you select the Apps tab and scroll down to the bottom of the apps list, you will see a section for Apps that can sync files between your computer and the App on your iPad Air.  So if you have an app that handles a specific file format you can use iTunes to sync that file between your computer and your iPad Air.
As has been mentioned above, besides iBooks, GoodReader is another well respected app that handles PDFs and you can transfer PDF files between your computer and GoodReader on the iPad Air via the Apps tab.

    For transferring videos you could use 'Video Transfer App'. I'm the developer of this universal application (iPhone/iPad) that let's you transfer videos from your iPad or computer directly to another iPhone or iPad.
    The app is currently in the Top 25 iPad apps in the photography category.
    Here are couple of videos that show how the app works:

    The latest version of Migration Assistant is version 5 and should have been installed in you Utilities folder when you upgraded to version 10.8. Use the 10.8 version machine to migrate to and you should have no problems.

  • Can't delete file from macbook pro...

    I recently bought a new macbook pro (2.3 GHZ, i5, 4gb ram...) and began to download some torrents. I was converting one movie file to play on my iphone but I cancelled the conversion because I realized the picture quality of the movie wasn't that great. I deleted the file but now there is a left over file that can only be seen under the "all my files" section in the Finder that I canno delete. There is no icon for this file except for this grayed out cut out.
    When I click "get info" I'm unable to move to trash that way and it says I have "unknown access" under the sharing and permissions tab. I can't drag the file to the trash bin and when I do, another file is taken instead.  When I click on the icon this message displays -The alias “Immortals.2011.DVDScr#8B1B.divx” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found" I'm given options to click "Delete alias, Fix alias, or Ok". When I click delete alias, nothing happens, when I click Fix alias I can't find the original becuase I've obviously deleted it and clicking ok just closes the message.
    I have two questions,
    1. When I "get info" on file, it states that the file size is 956 mb. Is it really taking that much space up on my hd? I know I deleted the original file. What gives?
    2. How can I delete this file?
    I could really use some help on this. I've asked my friends and they coudln't figure it out either.
    I'd appeciate any and all who can give me some ideas.
    Thanks,
    D

  • How can you transfer files from an iMac with a bad logic board?

    This is in reference to my "Nothing but a blue screen at startup!" post. He took his iMac to an Apple authorized repair shop and he was told that the logic board was shot. He has decided to get a new iMac but he's wondering about all the photos and other files he has on the old hard drive. What are the ways that he can get files from the old hard drive on to his new one when he gets it? Thanks in advance for your help with this!
    Eric

    Hi Eric!
    roam's method is a very good one!
    I don't know if this will work because of the bad Logic Board, but another way, may be to use Firewire Target Disk Mode.
    The ailing iMac would have to be Firewire enabled, and you would need access to another Firewire Mac.
    Good Luck!

  • How to transfer files from MacBook Pro to a thumb drive?

    When I try to do so I get this screen:
    The operation can’t be completed because an item with the name “Ronay Enterprises A” already exists.
    The thumb drive was empty until I attempted to transfer a folder.
    Jim

    Lex,
    As mentioned before, I did install and ran Clam twice. I again eraced the stick (quick erace) and still 55 files remained so I'm doing a 7x erace now. It will be another 3 hrs until that 7x will be finished. The folder was from my Mac and it is clean according to Clam. My laptop is clean as well according to avira antivirus software.
    All of this comes as a result of trying to move folders from my Mac to my laptop. My Mac sees both PCs but will not allow me to xfer files/folders. The PCs are linked via a router. My laptop PC and desk PC can exchange files/folders but I can't seem to get my Mac to exchange files/folders with my PCs. Thus I turned to the stick hoping I could make transfers via the stick. I'm also using Zone Alarm on both of my PCs.
    Will the stick be reformated automatically when the 7x is finished?
