Auto update of file from laptop to ipad?

Does anyone know if I sync an existing document from my laptop to my ipad via pages, then work on it on the ipad, will it update the existing file on the laptop when I sync overall?

Out of interest Magnus, what did you find that was so 'ghastly' about Docs to Go?
I and many others love the app.
Just curious.
It is of course very subjective. DocsToGo can do a lot of things, and it probably does some things better and some things less good. If you use it for what it does well, it may be a good choice.
My own personal experience, however, was thorough disappointment. I bought it for one single purpose: to display and edit Google Docs documents. This function was only "available" in the expensive version, so that's what I bought. However, it turned out that "available" did not mean "working" - at least not working well. To make it work at all, I spent a few hours looking for forums and solutions, and it turned out that DocsToGo asks you to switch to the old version of Google Docs. I could not do that, because then Google Docs could not read my older documents, created with the new version. Ergo, DocsToGo was unable to do the only thing I wanted it to do: view and edit my documents.
DocsToGo claims this is due to a bug at Google, and that may be so, but no matter whose fault it is, I paid extra money to DocsToGo, who did not warn me that the only functionality I wanted was unavailable due to this "bug" at Google.
I did some attempts to use it as a local word processor, forgetting about Google Docs. However, it did not impress me there either: the default font was too small for my taste, there is no word auto-completion as in Pages, there is an ugly time lag between you hit a key and it displays in the document, and pretty soon I just gave up. Twelve Euro down the drain. Well, I can survive that loss. I just wish the money had gone to someone who deserved it.
I'm sure some people are happy with the local word processing, and if some friend of mine buys it for that purpose and is happy with it, I will not push for him to switch to Pages.
It is just that to me Pages does some things better than DocsToGo. Where Pages fails, DocsToGo fails as well, so the application satisfies none of my needs.

  • Getting files from laptop to iPad for email

    I have been stuck trying to find a solution for this problem.
    I have a desktop, laptop and iPad2. My iPad generally syncs with the desktop (which has my photos, complete iTunes library, etc.).
    I regularly travel to a location that has no internet access. My laptop cannot connect. However, my iPad does have 3G service in the area and can send/receive email.
    There are many times where I have to create a file and send to clients for review. These are primarily PDF files, but sometimes I also need to send graphic files (jpeg, eps). These files are created on the laptop and cannot be created on the iPad.
    The problem is - how can I get these files from the laptop to the iPad and attach them to an email?
    Laptop is a MacBook Pro. Currently running 10.6.8, but will eventually go to 10.7. It has bluetooth, airport and USB to connect to the iPad. I just cannot figure out how to get the files over and available to mail.
    Is there a solution or an app? As it stands, when I am in this "no internet" location, I am unable to work - I can create the files, but not send them to the people who need them.
    Any ideas?

    I have Dropbox on my laptop and my iPad.
    Dropbox can only email a link, not the actual file. I would rather avoid this extra step for my clients - although if it were the only workaround, I guess I could live with it.
    Real problem is that the laptop is offline. Only the iPad is online (via 3G). If my laptop could access Dropbox, I could email the file itself from that machine.
    How do I get the file from the offline laptop to the iPad (dropbox or otherwise) so it can be emailed?

  • Downloading Files from Laptop to iPad

    I recently added numerous files (.mp3 files and iTune purchases etc.) on my Toshiba Laptop via iTunes (which I had previously downloaded to my Laptop) to my Apple/iTunes? library.  All these files appeared in my Laptop iTunes music songs list.  I then connected a USB cable between my iPad 4 and my Laptop and iMatched them.  Not all files appeared on my iPad iTunes music list. 
    I then purchased iCloud via my Laptop and uploaded all files on my Laptop iTunes music list to iCloud (I think!).  I then turned iCloud ON in my iPad settings.  Now I have clouds with down arrows as well as red circles next to a multitude of files which iTunes indicates are files waiting or progressing to download to my iPad.  The problem I now have is 2 fold: (1) These files have still not downloaded after 2 days even though I have wifi connected! (2) Some files that appear on my Laptop iTunes music list still do not appear on my iPad iTunes music list.  I would appreciate help to resolve these 2 problems.  Additionally, is it possible to view the files stored in iCloud in order to confirm they have arrived there?

    Hi,
    I am confused by your comments.
    Itunes match and icloud are two different products.
    Have you purchased Itunes match and had your music matched or uploaded to the cloud? You cannot manually sync with USB when you have match.
    Icloud storage does not back up non itunes purchased music.
    Would you please expand on your problem.

  • How to transfer music from laptop to ipad

    I have music in my laptop in itune folder.How do I transfer music from itune in laptop to itune in ipad2.

    If you have iTunes installed on the computer, you have to make sure it is the current version.
    Just run iTunes and go to "File > Check for Update" to check whether your iTunes is the latest one. Then, use USB cable to connect iPad with computer as well.
    After iTunes recognize your iTunes, just hit "iPad" tab under the "DEVICE" section of the iTunes sidebar. On the right screen, you can see a new window to list you all categories of iPad. Just hit "Music" tab. Check the box next to "Sync Music" and click the circle next to "Entire music library" or "Selected playlists, artists and genres." Click the boxes next to specific artists, playlists and genres if you want to sync specific music to your iPad.
    Now, you may press the "Apply" button in the bottom-right corner of the main iTunes screen, followed by "Sync" in the same area to transfer the music to your iPad.

    Best way to transfer DVD videos from laptop to ipad air

    presuming they're not copywriteed commercial dvd's, you can use a program like Handbrake to convert the dvd files to mp4's that you can then import into iTunes and sync to your device.
    If they're copywritted commercial dvd's then you'd have to break the copywrite encoding to transcode the files and since that is illegal in the US no one here can help you with that.

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Auto selection of file from folder during uploading??

    Hi all friends,
    Iam facing with one problem I am developing one uploading software for that i have used swing and servlet.Now my problem is i want to give auto selection of file from one folder means user just copy the files from any computer on network and paste it in predefind folder.And when they click on upload button it should start uploading of file one by one and after completion of uploading it move that file into another folder one by one.Now my software doing it perfectly but if user copy and paste any file in that predifined folder from network computer during uploading then they have to click upload button again after completion of first queue of files(for example if user first copy 10 files and start uploading and inbetween uploading of that 10 files if user copy another 10 files from network computer then they have to click on upload button again after completion of uploading of first 10 files).But my user requirement is they want to click on upload button once only at the time of starting my application and my application automatically select the file one by one from folder and send it to destination.Means if they copy the file from network machine inbetween uploading or any other user from network send file in that folder then my application should select those file automatically and start uploading means they don't want to click on upload button again.Can any one plz guide how I can slove this problem.Below r my codes:-
    Upload.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    try {
    suspendflag=true;
    Resume.setEnabled(false);
    Suspend.setEnabled(false);
    dest=frame.m_txtURL.getText();
    File ff=new File("d:\\DTMS\\Upload");
    File[] files = ff.listFiles();
    fileList = new Vector();
    if(files == null)
    textArea.append("There is no file");
    return;
    else
    for (int j = 0 ; j< files.length ; j++)
    fileList.add(files[j]);
    java.util.Collections.sort(fileList, new FileComp());//sorting by size
    new Thread(new Runnable() {
    public void run(){
    for (int k = 0; k < fileList.size(); k++)//loop for queue {
    File fname = (File)fileList.get(k);
    String str=fname.getName();
    log("Destination:" +" "+ dest);
    log("Uploading Progress\nPlease Wait....");
    result=doPost(fname,dest);//method for read file & send to servlet
    String str2="Transfer apparently failed.";
    String str3=result;
    if(str2.equals(str3)){
    Error(result);
    else if(suspendflag==true){

    Hi Chandan,
                        All the multiselection files are stored in it_tab( i:e file_table in method). you need to loop the every record to upload the data for selected files. please check the code Below...
    DATA: file_str1 type string.
    data: it_tab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF file_table,
           wa_tab TYPE file_table,
           lw_file LIKE LINE OF it_tab,
           gd_subrc TYPE i.
    SELECTION-SCREEN begin of block blk with frame title text-100.
    SELECTION-SCREEN SKIP 2.
    parameters : p_file like rlgrap-filename .
    SELECTION-SCREEN end of block blk.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.
    CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog
    EXPORTING
    window_title = 'Select only Text File'
    default_filename = '.azt'
    multiselection = 'X'
    CHANGING
    file_table = it_tab
    rc = gd_subrc.
    *READ TABLE it_tab INTO lw_file INDEX 1.
    *p_file = lw_file-FILENAME.
    Start-of-Selection.
    loop at it_tab INTO wa_tab.
       file_str1 = wa_tab-FILENAME.
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
       EXPORTING
         filename                      = file_str1

  • "Entitlements are not valid" error message when trying to sync ipa file from iTunes to iPad

    Is anyone else getting this error message, "Entitlements are not valid",  when trying to sync .ipa file from iTunes to iPad?
    The issue I'm having is getting the ipa file that was built by the 'Adobe Flash Packager for Iphone' installed into my iPad.
    So, I have a swf file that works and was able to publish it into the Android Market.  I then compiled and build the same flash project with the Packager for Iphone into an .ipa file.  But when I try and install this .ipa file into my iPad to do my testings, i'm getting the error message. 
    I would like to test my ipa file in my iPad device before submitting it to the Apple Store.
    Any help would be appreciated. thank you.

    Developing for iphone can be amazingly complicated and frustrating.  (even before you start coding).  The process of having to create a Certificate, to approving the Certificate, to Assigning the deviceIDs to the certificate, to creating the AppIDs, to creating the provisioning profiles and then creating the .p12 file... is just too tedious. 
    I solved the problem of the "Entitlements are not valid".   The AppID i had set in the iPhone Developer Portal did not match that of the AppID i had set in the Adobe Flash CS5 -> Publish Settings.  (ie. com.yourdomainname.yourappname).  After I re-entered my AppID and compile, i was able to sync the .ipa file into my ipad. 
    I wish the error message had been a little more descriptive.  Could have saved me a whole day.
    I hope this helps others.  But my guess is, if you don't set the 40 character device ID correctly, or the email in the signingcertificate correctly, you'll get this same generic error message.
