Why cant I transfer files from usb to my ipad?

Why do I get the message, The connected USB device requires too much power when I use the camera connection kit and plug my USB memory stick in. I only have a three photo files on.

you get the message because the connected device require more power to operate then the ipad is able to provide
the power required don't change depending on how many photos is located on the usb device
one thing you can try is to connect the usb device to a powered by AC psu usb hub which you then connect to your ios device then the usb device will not draw any power from the ipad at all is will be more likely to work

How to transfer files from USB stick

How can you transfer files from USB stick to ipad2?

Buy a portable wi-fi router with file sharing such as MOCREO 5-in-1 Portable WiFi (not personaly vouching for this one it just happens to be the one I have and it cost less than the apple connection cables).
Plug your USB stick into the router
Connect your phone via wi-fi to the router.
Log into the routers built in file managment or use any FTP capable app to connect (GoodReader, ifiles, etc)
Transfer files.

I cant download any file from safari on my ipad 3 WI-FI it gives me safari can't download this file

I can't download any file from safari on my ipad 3 why
It gives me : safari cant download this file

Hi Morning mist,
If the app did not specifically indicate that it was available from the iTunes & App Stores then, as Diavonex indicated, you cannot download it.
The App Store has 2 free Heartmath apps for the iPad - Inner Balance, and HeartQuotes HD. You can click on your App Store icon and find them under Heartmath in the Categories search bar.
Not sure what you might have paid for?
Cheers,

Why can't I transfer files from usb internal hdd on my mac?

I am trying to restore a back-up (not via time-machine) from an external HDD dock, I've put an internal HDD in there.
I'm constantley confronted with this error: "The finder can’t complete the operation because some data in "8A5A0887.MOV" can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)".
I've tried to check the do not read/write radio button, but it's not even on. I'm afraid my disk is broken but I need those files really bad. Any ideas on transfering the files from the HDD?

looks like the file is corrupt

The easiest way around this is to reformat the external drive to be FAT32 if you want to use it with other PCs, or HFS+ if you only want to use it with Macs. You will lose all the data off the drive when you do this.
You can reformat the drive using Disk Utility.

Why cant i transfer photos from iphone 5c to desktop xp

After I upgraded from 3gs to 5c i can"t transfer photos to desktop xp. I plug into usb desktop port, phone ask to trust computer (which it takes several times to get trust to work), then popup window ask how i want to transfer pictures. I click microsoft wizard like always have, and another window pops up telling me it doesnt detect camera or scanner please make sure device is turned on properly.
Also when i go in throught my computer and double click digital still camera there are no folder.
I tried updating drives. Help!

I also have a 5S which would not permit transfer of photos to Win XP after IOS 7.1 was installed. Found an easy way to solve the problem. Installing iTunes version 11.1..5.5 results in a driver (don't know the name) getting installed on XP which will then permit photos to transfer from the 5S camera roll to any XP folder of your choice. You do not need to use iTunes to do the transfer. You can connect the Apple freedom cable to a USB port on the XP machine and XP will then recognize the 5S camera roll. You can then drag and drop 5S photos anywhere on your XP computer. I have done this on two XP machines and it worked both times. Not sure why Apple does not make this more obvious. Also my experience is that any Win 7 machine can do the transfer without needing iTunes.

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 !
G. 

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.

HT1296 How would I transfer files from computer back to iPad?

I bought the iPad 2 in Fall of 2011. I just updated the operating system to 5.1.1.
Before the update, all of my files and apps were transfered to iTunes.
How do I transfer the files and apps from iTunes back to my iPad?
Thanks,
Jim

I'm glad you wrote back. The message you are getting would indicate your iPad has not been synced to this iTunes account. In iTunes with your iPad NOT connected do the following:
First go to Store and make sure you Authorize This Computer with your Apple ID and Password
Next go to:
Edit > Preferences > Devices and choose Do Not Automatically Sync iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch when Connected to iTunes
Now, connect your iPad and once it is recognized on the left side, instead of clicking on it as you did previously, RIGHT click it. This will open a drop down box and you should choose Transfer Purchases.
This will transfer your Apps to iTunes.
Now, do not sync. You're going to need to restore from backup if you have any hope of getting your GoodReader content back.
To do this, Again, right click your iPad an choose restore. Choose the most recent backup (I do hope you have been regularly backing up your iPad, because if you haven't, you just may not get your contect back.
That's about the best I can offer you. No matter the outcome, at least your iPad will now be working correctly with your iTunes account on your computer.

It could be because your camera must be relatively new model for the PSE you are currently using. Do you get any error messages when you try to transfer your photos?
For unsupported cameras there are essentially 3 ways to deal:
1) Upgrade PSE 10 the latest version (version 11) if at all possible;
2) Use the software that might have come with the camera;
3) Use Adobe's DNG converter and watch this video to learn how to use it:

Once something similar happened to me. The external drives I had set up for FCP to use for some reason were not mounted, and FCP put all its render files on the main drive and I couldn't find them anywhere.
Go to applications, and control-click (and hold down) on your FCP icon; you should get a pop up menu that says "show package contents". Select that, select the "contents" folder, then the "mac OS" folder. See if your quicktime file is in there, or if you've got render files in the "render" folder or audio render files in the "audio render" folder that don't belong there.
That's where FCP sticks stuff when your documents FCP project folders are not available or when external drives you've selected aren't available.

After lollypop upgrade I can no longer transfer files from LG g3 to windows8 computer using USB charge cord. Can I roll back to Kittcat?

That is definitely odd, grantcool. Let's help restore this important data transfer feature. To confirm, when you connect the USB cable to your phone and computer > Pull down the Notification Bar > Select USB Connected > Can you choose Media Sync (MTP) ?

i have deleted my private folder and do not have enough space to reinstall my operating system. How can i transfer files from my hard drive to an USB drive to free up space when the operating system isn't working. or do i need to erase disk through disk utilities without erasing data (but will it delete my programs such as photoshop, office, creative suite?

Connect the computer to another Mac and put it in FireWire Target Disk mode, or use the Disk Utility to clone the drive or image specific folders with the USB drive as the target. After you've copied off everything you want, you'll likely need to erase the drive and reinstall the applications.

I'm new to apple after years of MS OS! How do I transfer files from my USB memory stick to another USB memory stick? cheers

hi all, i've just switched to apple after many years using MS OS! I'm now using iMac desktop 21.5" with 2.9GHz processor and latest Yosemite software.
How do I transfer files from one USB memory stick to another USB memory stick on the iMac? cheers, linley94

Plug in the memory stick and it should open then create a New Folder and drag and drop the contents from the memory stick to the new folder you created. Remove the original memory stick all the information should be in the new folder you created. Now plug in the new memory stick with nothing on it when it opens drag the folder with the contents from the original memory stick folder and all into the new memory stick that opened and there you have it.
CHEERS
