Converting to ipad from PC

Hi All
Have just got an ipad and it does all I need at present. Was thinking of ditching my PC. However, a slight problem. I have about 5 gig of photos on my PC. If I place these on my ipad then they arent backed up on the cloud. As someone pointed out it is possible to email a picture to your ipad and then choose to have it backed up. This not so good for several thousand.
Perhaps Apple are missing this trick. I would happily pay for this to be done - eg upload them somewhere to have them on the cloud with Apple and also appear on my iPad. Even if they said I would have to purchase an additional icloud type space for such a purpose.

Do you have a Camera Connection Kit? If you don't, get ne - cheap and immensely useful for other purposes too.
Just copy the images to a card, import them and voila - they're backed up to iCloud.
Another alternative is using third-party photo viewer apps that don't hide the images you transfer to them (that is, keep them in their original Documents directory). They're also backed up - but their content will NOT be accessible as a native photo content from other clients; that is, they will only be accessible from the same app strictly on iOS devices (not on desktops).

Do I need a power converter to go from 220 to 110 on the ipad

Do I need a power converter to go from 220v to 110v when charging my iPad in Europe?

Hi,
No Converted Needed...
All you need is an adapter from your supply... to the sockets of the country you are in.
Cheers,

How do I load movies into my ipad from itunes?

I'm trying to load movies onto my ipad from itunes, I've already synced my ipad with all the current songs and the movies, but I go to videos on my ipad and do not see it. So I go to itunes, hit movies and still see nothing but movies for purchase only. I'm going on a trip on Wednesday and would love to sync all my mp4 movies into my ipad but can't find them on my ipad, can anyone give me some advice? I've been searching the forums, but nothing seems to work for me. Appreciate it guys.

wondershare video converter.
I wouldn't bother with Wondershare. While iSkySoft has some excellent products (e.g. FreeSync), their video converters are generally (sometimes far) slower than HandBrake (check out the benchmarks at http://www.macworld.com/article/1150757/dvdripping_roundup.html and http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/benchmark-excellent-multimedia-converter-handb rake-vs-commercial-apps if you want to see some figures). And vastly overpriced, while HandBrake is free and so is its batch companion. Finally, it's really a one-second drag-and-drop to drop the files it creates into iTunes.

HT201302 transfer videos to ipad from pc

i want to know how to transfer movies to Ipad from pc? as i have downloaded movies from internet and i want to watch them on Ipad, ipad supports AVI format?

If you have them on your computer's iTunes then you can try syncing them by connecting the iPad to your computer and selecting it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side on the Movies tab selecting and syncing them to the iPad's Videos app. If you get a message that they are not compatible with the iPad then try doing Advanced > Create iPad Version and then try syncing those versions.
If you can't get them into your computer's iTunes then you will either need to convert them into a compatible format, or you could have a look in the store for AVI players.

Buying ipad from usa to use in australia

buying ipad from usa and using in australia.can you do it and what do you need for it to work.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Yes you can do it, and if you search, upper right corner this has been discussed recently.
The iPad is compatible in both countries...charger handles 100-240 volts at 50-60 Hertz...just need the proper plug piece or converter. That should be easy enough, the plug piece slides off horizontally and the proper one for the country slides on...same piece for all iDevice chargers.
Service plans you need to check into.

Ipad from India use in US?

I bought ipad from India. Can i use it in the US? Will there be any issues related to power?

The charger is universal in terms of voltage and current, all that is needed is a plug converter to the US flat pin plug type.
WiFi will work fine.
If it is cellular, you will probably want to get a sim for a US service provider to avoid high user fees.

I have an AT&T iphone 6 and want to give my AT&T 4 to my wife but she is a Sprint customer. How involved would it be to convert my 4 from AT&T to Sprint?

I Have an AT&T iPhone 6 and wants to give my AT&T 4 to my wife but she is a Sprint customer. Is this possible and, if so, how involved is it to convert my 4 from AT&T to Sprint?

Likely not possible.
Sprint is a CDMA carrier which typically do not support BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) .
You will have to ask Sprint if they can offer service on a unlocked GSM Phone that does not have the CDMA chip.
Its unlikely they will though. But if they do, you will need to request AT&T unlock your iPhone so you can insert a Sim card form another carrier into it

How can I get all my data back after erasing my iPad from find my iPhone?

What happened is that I have 2 iPads . So I deleted the two from "find my iPhone" so one already got deleted but the other one is still awaiting to get delete. What I want to know is that the one that is not deleted yet is using the same ID as the other one... So I have the one that got deleted and I had to put my ID again and all those stuffs and I wanted to get all my photos back but I couldn'. So the other one has the same ID but already did the backup therefore it's supossed to get all its inforMarion back with the ID but the other one has that ID so how can I get my data back and the one that already got deleted?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to know how to restore one iPad from the backup of another iPad. Take a look at the article linked below, it’ll walk you through the restore process which will prompt you to choose the backup that you would like to restore from.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

Sed an iPad from someone and I want to go into App Store to update apps, but when I click on the update button, the previous owners' apple Id username appears and it won't take my apple id password. How do I replace their username w/ mine?

I purchased an ipad from someone and i set up my apple id for it but when i go to the app Store to update apps, i click on the update button for an app, the previous owners' apple Id username appears and it won't take my apple id password.

The iTunes Store on my iPad is set up with all my music already. And at the very bottom it shows my apple Id username. The only place it shows the previous owners id is in the App Store...
You can probably change the ID in the "iTunes and App stores" settings on the iPad....click on the wrong account ID , select sign out, then log in with your own ID, I have not done this but I think it works.....
but I would be more inclined to to the factory reset and start afresh.

Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"

Updated iPad 1 to IOS 5. When trying to restore my iPad from my backup it gets half way through and the iPad reboots and iTunes says "An error occurred while restoring this iPad (-1)"
I have tried to restore my contacts and company data at least 20 times and every time half way through THE iPAD REBOOTS! When it boots back up it is at the brand new iPad screen.
This makes me angry as I do not use the iPad for fun and games. I use it for business. My company data and records for the last year are gone. ALL of my out standing customer invoices are gone. ALL payments received are gone! ALL Business contacts and emails ARE GONE! All my company, personal email accounts and settings ARE GONE!
What am I supposed to do now? In 6 hours I have to get on the road and conduct business with a empty blank factory out of the box iPad. How am I supposed to know who owes me money or who has paid their bills Apple? All of my meetings and calendar dates are GONE!
Everything was supposed to be backed up and restored after the update!
Question???WHY DID YOU MAKE THIS UPDATE WIPE OUT ALL SETTINGS AND APPS ON THE iPAD??? All the other updates left everything on the iPad intact and ONLY upgraded the IOS,and when it was done everything was still there.
Yes! I have done everything. Rebooted computer, checked for updates, Hard booted iPad, Factory restored iPad to ios 5 twice, tried every usb port I have, unplugged all other usb components.
Everytime half way through "Restoring iPad from backup..." The iPad turns off shows a spinning circle then shows the Apple logo and takes me to the brand new iPad setup screen.
Apple, you have no idea the level of stress you have created today.....

Check the console app to see if there are any error messages. I had one app showing an issue (Pet Hotel) the error was (truncated):
ERROR: Restore message response: 102 rename error: File name too long (63) at path "/var/mobile/Library/SafeHarbor/com.pocketgems.tappethotel/Container/Documents/ savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHis tory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGa meHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/sa vedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHisto ry/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGame History/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/save dGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory /savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHi story/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedG ameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/s avedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHistory/savedGameHist ory/savedGameHistory/1313349538-pocket_gems_crash_report.txt" (MBErrorDomain/102)
I manually snyc'ed that particular app and then re-ran the restore and am now the proud owner of a working iphone. Not sure it is the same problem or app but looking in the console was the key!

The password would be either your iTunes ID password or your admin password for the Computer.

I live in india. I am planning to buy an iPad from US. Will an iPad from US work in India?

Hello everyone
I am new to this Community and have a query.
I am planning to buy an iPad from US.
As I live in India , will my iPad work in INDIA?
Will I have to choose any specific carrier for that and why.
Thanks & Regards
Sushil Raisinghani

Well, first you have to come to the US to do that. When you do you will pay US sales tax in the state where you purchase it. Understand that once your return to India your warranty will not likely be honored, so you will have to return it to the US for any warranty repair. If you have it repaired in India by a non-Apple certified shop, then any further warranty will be voided.
Keep that all in mind before doing what you plan to do. You may find it is wiser to purchase it in India from an Apple certified reseller or retailer.

I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3. I cannot find my photos and videos. I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out. Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos?

I just upgraded my iPad from 4.3.3 to the newest - I think 6.1.3. I cannot find my photos and videos. I tried a restore, but after 3 hours, it's timing out. Pardon my ignorance on asking this question; but is there a way to find my photos? I do nto care about anythign else.
Here are the steps I though I took this morning:
Backup iPad
Connect to iTunes and downlaod newest version of iTunes and then newest iOS
restart Vista Laptop
upgrade to newest iOS
I knew somethign was wrong when it took about 6 hours to upgrade the iPad
at the end it errored with this message error (-50), but the upgrade worked
I was expecting to see all my photos but didn't see them
I have tried a restore to a back up 2 times. The first time took 3 hours and just sort of timed out - it kept saying that there was an hour to go
I tried it again 2 hours ago and same message.
They are very valuable to me and so now I am panicking
Your help is much appreciated

Hi Eric Ferguson,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For troubleshooting on this, take a look at this article:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
Best of luck,
Mario
