How do I transfer photos from ipad 2 to a flash drive

how do I transfer photos from iPad 2 to a flash drive?

You don't. There is the Camera Connection Kit, which let's you download pictures to your iPad via SD card, but the reverse is not a standard feature of iPad. The best method would be to connect your iPad to your computer and transfer the pictures to your computer via iTunes.

How can I use iCloud for storage without duplication problems?

I recently set up iCloud to use on my Mac and PC. With the exception of a single data file that I have stored in the cloud (as a working data file) that I use both on my Mac and PC....I want to use the rest of my 20 gigs of space on iCloud for storage/backup purposes only. However, I have very little experience with iCloud; and it doesn't seem entirely intuitive to use iCloud.
For example, if I store all of my music and pictures on iCloud, how do I stop Itunes and iphoto from duplicating the results of each music and picture file in those programs? I ask this question because I have seen iTunes act up way too many times (in other circumstances) when it creates duplicate music files.
Just to be clear, I want everything to remain on my local hard drive. I only want to use iCloud for storage/backup only. So, again, how do I stop iTunes and iPhoto from reading music and photo files once I successfully get them on iCloud? (I am thinking I have to hide the archived files once I get them in iCloud, but unsure about how I go about doing that). And here's my second question. To upload my personal music and picture files to iCloud, can I simply drag and drop them into the iCloud drive on my computer and assume they will be successfully uploaded?
My second question seems kind of basic too. But, once again, iCloud does not seem entirely intuitive to use for a beginner. For example, I recently purchased some music from the Itunes store. And while I have it downloaded on my harddrive (like I wanted it)......I don't see it on the iCloud drive (on my computer)....nor do I see it when I log into icloud.com on the web site. Thanks for any replies.

If you have a Mac signed into your account running iPhoto, you might want to check iPhoto>Preferences>iCloud to make sure Automatic Upload isn't checked. If it is checked, all new photos added to iPhoto are automatically added to your photo stream.

How do I transfer pics from my iphone 4 to desk computer?

How do I transfer pics from iPhone 4 to desk computer?

You can import pictures from your iOS device using iPhoto (if installed):
Connect the device to your computer. iPhoto should automatically launch into its import window with your device's images and videos listed.
Note: If iPhoto does not automatically open, you may wish to enable the behavior.
Click Import All. If you want only some of your images imported, select the images and videos you would like to import into iPhoto, then click the Import Selected button.
When the photos finish importing, you will be presented with a dialog asking whether you'd like to delete the original photos from your Camera Roll. Click Delete Photos.
Note: Deleting photos after importing helps to reduce Camera Roll size, and it improves backup and restore times. You may choose Keep Photos if you wish to import the photos to additional computers.
If you do not have iPhoto installed on your computer, you can import pictures from the device using Image Capture:
Connect the iOS device to the computer.
If Image Capture does not open automatically, you can navigate to your Applications folder and open Image Capture from there.
Choose the location to which you'd like to import pictures.
Click Options.
Click the Options tab if it isn't already selected.
Enable the option "Delete items from camera after downloading".
Note: Deleting photos after importing helps to reduce Camera Roll size, and it improves backup and restore times. You may choose Keep Photos if you wish to import the photos to additional computers.
Click OK.
Click Download All.
If you have Aperture, you can use it to import your photos. See the Aperture User Guide for more information.

How do i transfer pic from my iphone to my macbook pro?

how do i transfer pictures from my iphone to my mac book pro using usb. i tried but it keeps saying no photos available

You can only transfer photos via USB that you took yourself with the camera and are on the Camera Roll. If you are trying to transfer other photos I think you can transfer using third party software, or possibly mail them to yourself (?).

Anyone else having an issue with TCP connections using iCloud for Windows?

Hi,
Before I asked this question, I did wait to see if any related questions came up, but none did, so I submit it now.
On my admittedly older laptop running Windows 7 64b Home, I've run into difficulties with the iCloud for Windows app to the extent that I had to uninstall it.
It would that, as my laptop was running, in the background, iCloudServices.exe would endlessly iterate TCP connections, which, while not actively sending or receiving any data, after some hours would number over 100 instances, taking up resources, and grinding my laptop's WiFi connection to a grindingly slow pace. I ended up, within the app, turning off everything, iCloud Drive and Photos, (I never used bookmarks), but still this would continue to occur.
I contacted Apple Support, explaining what was going on, and they stated they only dealt with IOS and gave me a Microsoft Support number. When I called Microsoft support, I came more and more to the realization that the issue was specifically with the iCloud for Windows app, as that was the only software that was endlessly creating and not closing TCP connections as it was. How was Microsoft supposed to solve an issue with Apple code?
So I called Apple back, whereupon they insisted it was a Microsoft issue. I explained other cloud services installed on the same computer were not having the same issue, it was unique to ICloudServices.exe. They stated they only dealt with IOS. I stated I purchased an iPad Air less than 7 months ago, and was trying to run iCloud in support of that. They again stated they only dealt with IOS, and suggested I again try Microsoft. I asked them if it was reasonable to expect Microsoft to solve issues with Apple code? They said regardless, there was zero support offered for anything having to do with Windows, and all I could do was uninstall the app, which I did, though that did not feel very satisfactory to me. My thinking is, if Apple writes a Windows app in support of their hardware, they should offer support for it.
Anyway, I was just wondering, is this an issue unique to me? or have others experienced a similar issue? I found this issue by opening the Windows Resource Monitor, looking under the Networking tab, and scrolling through the TCP Connections section to find 100+ concurrent iCloudServices.exe instances listed, whereas even Chrome, with multiple tabs and extensions, topped out at around 20.
My one month old Desktop, DYI, sports a solid Asus 1150 MoBo, i7-4790k cpu, 16GB Ram, and an EVGA GTX 970 video card. I list some specs only to illustrate this computer has no hardware issues in comparison to my long in tooth laptop. On this desktop, running Win 8.1 Pro 64b, at least as many, identifiably Apple, background service TCP connections are created even compared to Chrome, regardless of many tabs being open, many extensions, and even some related apps. Adobe does not even come close, though I run the full CC subscription. On this new computer, running Windows 8.1 Pro 64b, there are currently over 50 TCP connections and loopbacks that do not identify themselves, with just a - for the Image, and PID. With the experience on my laptop, I wonder how many of these are generated by Apple software, if not specifically iCloud software?
The frustrating aspect of these connections is they seem in no way active, While the Chrome and Adobe connections can be seen to be transferring data, as long as I am not running iTunes, or so have my iPad actually plugged in, it seems 99% of the time these iCloudServices.exe connections are just taking up ports, neither sending nor receiving any data discernable to me under the Processes with Network Activity, or Network Activity lists, both displayed in the same window as the TCP Connections in the Windows Resource Monitor.
Though I am fairly ignorant as regards coding, it seems as if there is no call to close a connection, very specifically, iCloudServices.exe, when it is no longer needed, and the next time a connection is needed, a new one is opened, rather than accessing the one previously opened. The only other reason I could imagine this might be occurring is if my Norton Internet Security software might mask and/or block the port after a certain time of inactivity.
Anyone out there have any ideas or advice about this? Thanks in advance.

Thanks jared,
I'm still dealing with this issue through Apple. Some time after I posted this, I contacted Apple again. They did start a case up for me, as I was experiencing the same behavior on two different machines, with two different versions of Windows.
So far it remains unsolved. I've logged iClouds for Windows on my desktop, which is brand new, then logged for awhile after completely uninstalling Norton Security Suite, depending on the Microsoft security for some time, and finally logged after I uninstalled iCloud for Windows, restarted, installed a clean download, and connected using a completely different test account, which Apple set up for me. None of this made any difference. Looking at the logs, it seems every 10 minutes, iCloudServices.exe creates a new TCP connection to confirm I'm using less than 5GB on iCloud, (which I am by a good margin, using less than 2GB), it seems this connection is not closed, and when the next iteration rolls around 10 minutes later, a new TCP connection is created. I come very close to having 6 TCP connections created per hour, until I restart my computer. This works out to... 6 x 24 = 144/day.
Perhaps the article you posted will shed some further light on this. I'm thinking seeing the state of the connection through netstats, at the least, could help.
For the last week, I've been putting a hold on further logging, as Apple wants me to create a new user account on one of my computers, install iCloud for Windows there, and log it running in the other account. This however basically means I cannot use my computer for a fair number of hours, and I've been busy enough with work the past week that I haven't the time or energy to afford to set this up and run it. I've had need of my computers too much for the past week.

How do I transfer pictures from my iMac to a flash drive?

Very frustrated. I plugged a flash drive into my iMac, opened Finder, opened iPics, then tried to drag and drop a file with 200 pics onto the flash drive. It says the flash drive is locked, and it won't download the pics onto the flash. What am I doing wrong? Please help!!

Hi.
Some flash drives actually have a really tiny lock switch on them to prevent moving/changing the contents. You might carefully examine your flash drive to see if it has one.

If you have the iPad connected to the PC and think that you can simply copy the photos to the drive via the iPad without importing them to the computer first, you can't. Import them to the PC them copy them to the device.

How to use iCloud for documents

This is what Apple should tell you, but won't.
iCloud automatically keeps your documents up to date across all your devices. (Important exceptions apply, additional requirements sold separately)
iCloud is already seamlessly integrated with the Apple iWork apps for your iOS devices — Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. And we’ve given developers the tools to make their apps work with iCloud, too. So you can do things like paint a masterpiece, edit stock lists, and more — and have it all with you on all your devices, including your Mac or PC.
This is blatantly misleading. Read on.
iCloud makes it easy to move Pages, Keynote, and Numbers documents between your computer and your iOS devices. Just sign in to icloud.com/iwork in any modern web browser, and all your iWork for iOS documents will be there — complete with your most recent edits.
Unless the most recent edits were done on your personal computer. Then you have just downloaded an out of date version unless you first uploaded the version from your computer the last time you worked on it.
Click a document to download it in iWork ’09, Microsoft Office, or PDF format. You can also drag and drop any iWork ’09 or Microsoft Office document from your computer into one of the iWork apps (SOLD SEPARATELY) on icloud.com, and it automatically appears on all your iOS devices (note: this does not include your personal computer), ready for you to review, edit, or present.

Thanks Bob, that was my intent but I could find a forum for every Apple product and software imaginable...except iCloud. I'll repost it there.
The point is, my post is correct. Apple intentionally makes the highlight of of their pitch "iCloud automatically keeps your documents up to date across all your devices." Which is not true. Key words are, "automatic" and "all devices". My computer is not a device then.
Most of the text of my post is from Apple's website about iCloud. The important points of how to make it actually work are added by me gleaned from various sources.
For a company that prides itself on stuff that "just works", this doesn't and to make it worse, they fail to explain exactly how to make it work. And don't even get me started on the multiple Apple ID debacle that Apple forced upon all former MobileMe users just to further complicate the issue.
Thanks for the heads up about the proper forum.

How to use Keychain for multiple users on one computer?

I have a new Macbook Pro with Yosemite. I just moved over from PC for my work computer and the Keychain thing is killing me! I am a social media consultant so I manage multiple accounts for multiple clients. I need a way to log in and out as them on many different platforms. The reality is that I am the only user but I log in and out of different things as if this was a public computer with multiple users.
PC allowed me a drop-down option with each login. For example the email box could be clicked and then I could select the client email that I needed to fill in. The password would then auto-populate. Is there any setting I can change to make this happen on a Macbook? I have been logging in, deleting the info in Keychain, then logging in for the next client, delete...etc.
Most password managers don't work because of this same problem. Please don't recommend a password manager app unless it can handle logging in and out of (for example)10 different LinkedIn profiles.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

How do I download the full resolution JPEG images from my iPhone to my flash drive through my mac?

When I plug my iPhone 5S into my MacBook Pro through a USB 2.0 to Lightning cable, the phone doesn't show up as a device in finder (#imisssnowleopard). How can I grab the images off the phone and put the files on my flash drive? (without using the iPhoto library compression or the iTunes photo compressing) (iPhone 5S with latest iOS)(15" MacBook Pro June 2009, most recent OS X)

Use Image Capture to import the pictures wherever you want to have them.

How to use icloud for calendars

All of a sudden my calendar dates are not going to my iphone anymore. Well some did and then I had to manually enter them in my phone then there were duplicates and I dont know which claendars are applicable. Should I select all calendars or Icloud calendars?? I am up to date on all software and the latest operating system but icloud has confused me no end!! is there a easy way???

Only the iCloud calendars are synced with your iCloud account, and via iCloud, to your phone. Copy the missing calendar events to your iCloud calendar, then you can deselect the other calendars and you should see duplicates any more.

Hey i am unfamiliar with how to use icloud for storage. Can some one slowly( lol ) help me to understand how this thing works. I also need someone to help with how to transfer pics from your iphone to your flash drive.
