How to transfer files from 1 ipad to another

how to transfer files from 1 ipad to another

Depends what you are trying to transfer.
Are you just trying to add content such as apps, music and photos?
Or are these files that were created by such apps as pages and numbers?
You can download content that was purchased in the itunes or app store by signing into same account.
You can dowload any documents saved to icloud by signing into the same account.
You can create a backup of the first ipad and restore the second from that backup.
You can import or sync the content from the first ipad into itunes and then manually sync to the second.
But this all depends on what you are actually trying to do.

  • How to transfer files from ipad to new computer

    I am trying to find out how to transfer files, (Music, Videos, Ect.) from my iPad to a another computer. I lost all my files on my computer and it won't let me recover my files from my iPad and save them on my new install.

    Honestly there is no real way unless these are items you have purchased from iTunes.  There is an option to Transfer Purchases from iPad but these are only going to be Apps, Music, Videos, etc. that you purchased and downloaded from the App Store/iTunes (you can also do the same by just opening up iTunes on your computer, going to iTunes Store, then going to Purchases, and downloading your purchases).
    If they are files that you haven't purchased through the App Store/iTunes then you won't be able to transfer those back to your computer.

  • How to transfer files from ipad to usb flash drive

    Hi Everyone,
    How can I transfer docs stored on my Ipad to a USB flash drive or external hard drive? Thank you.
    Donnie

    You can't do it directly, you will need to copy them to a computer first e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc., whatever the app that you using supports. The iPad's camera connection kit which has a USB connection only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, you can't copy any content off the iPad with it.

  • How to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes

    how to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes ???
    as i want to use my ipad for official use as well...please suggest..

    well to be 100% technical, no you didn't but that aside, it good to know there are ways for people to transfer music into the default apps without iTunes, if they have a need.
    I tend to use 3rd party apps for documents, like your mentioned iExplorer etc, which are handy.
    I see from a search the two "apps" you mentioned are not iOS apps, which I had assumed, SyncPod and FreeSync are apps for your computer, that would explain their access to the default Music/Video apps.
    I had wondered how Apple had allowed iOS apps in the store that could get around the sandboxing in iOS of apps.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How to transfer files from iBook to reader?

    How to transfer files from iBook to reader

    The first step is to export the PDF from iBooks to your computer (this cannot be one on your iPad or iPhone). Connect your iPad or iPhone to your syncing computer. Open iTunes. Select your device (how to do this depends on which version of iTunes you are running). Click on the Books tab at the top. In the current version of iTunes 11, I had to choose to view by PDFs. Then I could drag a PDF from the iTunes window to my Desktop.
    Then follow the instructions in this document to import the PDF(s) into Adobe Reader:

    Not so easy, I'm afraid. Easier if you just keep copies of your PDFs on your computer.

  • HT1379 Summary: how to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards.

    How to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards?
    Insert the SD card.
    System opens iPhoto with SD contents.
    Want to transfer files from SD card to system drive.  iPhoto closes
    SD card directory removed from the Finder window and is not available again. 
    I don't want to have to reboot the system every time I want to perform this option.
    What's wrong here. 
    The support columns show this isn't an isolated incident with all sorts of solutions possible.
    This is a simple task - there should be a simple method for the system to recognize SD cards.
    What's the answer?
    I've reviewed a recommendation to reset the SMC.

    another one that has the same problem with OS Mountian Lion,
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21919740#21919740
    another one with the problem that says SD cards can't be read by Apple unless the card is formatted specifically for Apple, ie. that Apple is not compatible with other cards, but the problem maybe something else that requires Apple service - (bad SD card reader?).
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18711818#18711818
    there are probably more discussions, but I dont' want to spend my entire sunny in Seattle day working this.
    thanks for the help!

    What does that character on the right side of the SD card name do?  Is it an eject function - with no way to subsequently reread the drive?
    It ejects or unmounts the card. When the SD card mounts click on it once to highlight it and then drag the files shown within it to the new folder.

  • How to transfer photo from ipad to pc

    how to transfer photo from ipad to pc??
    If i have photos stored in my iPad and want to transfer it to my PC?

    If you want to transfer photos that were originally synced from your computer then you'll need to use a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which also has a free 'lite' version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can transfer photos off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when iTunes transfers them to the iPad, what you transfer back may not be exactly the same as what your originally synced.
    Perhaps from now on you'll take backups of your photos ?
