How can i download my word documents from my macbook pro to my IPad?

I have many documents on my macbook pro that are word documents i want to download to my new IPad. How can i do this. I have read there is a way to do it through ITunes, but i have no idea how to do that either?
Help

You can copy documents to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports the type of document that you want to copy - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
For word documents the options include Apple's Pages app, and from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer 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.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

  • How do I move a document from my MacBook Pro to my iPad?

    How do I move a document from my MacBook Pro to my iPad?

    What kind of document is it?  Keep in mind that you may need an app on the iPad to do anything with the document.  You can sync documents to particular apps by opening iTunes with your iPad connected, select the iPad in iTunes and click the Apps tab:
    Then scroll down to the File Sharing area, select the target app and drag a document to the Documents box.
    Alternately, you could use something like Dropbox to sync documents between your MBP and your iPad, as well as any other devices you like.

  • How can I download Microsoft office excel  for my MacBook Pro Mac OSX version for free. Please help me!

    How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro  for free?

    You can't. Excel is a commercial product sold by Microsoft in an Office "package" and not as a stand-alone product.
    If you need to be able to open and save Excel documents on your Mac, however, you could try the free LibreOffice.

  • How can I move my iPhoto Library from my MacBook Pro to my iMac or hard drive??

    How can I move my iPhoto Library from my MacBook Pro to my iMac or to my external hard drive? 'Help' is not helping!!

    To move to another machine:
    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    To move to an external disk:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • How can I completely delete an app from my Macbook Pro?

    How can I completely delete an app from my Macbook Pro?

    For programs that do not require an Administrator's password to install on your Mac, drag its program icon to the Trash. For those that require a password, research its developer's website or other support options for specific uninstallation instructions.
    Never use all-purpose "cleaners" or "zappers" or similarly named clever utilities to uninstall anything.

  • How can I best edit word documents that have been emailed to my iPad?

    I  regularly receive word documents from work, via my yahoo email account.  I have two questions really. 
    1) Can I edit word documents received via email?
    2) If this is possible, what is the best way to do this?
    Thanks in advance

    Sorry, yes. When I asked "how do I transfer it to Pages for editing?" I perhaps should have made it clear that I have purchased it. I can also create documents in it and send them as a Word document to others via email.
    Could you clarify "When you get the email, click on the Word Document to view it." The email appears in the Inbox list but does not show an attachment in the same way it does on my Mac. If I tap the email, it opens and reveals the contents including the Word document contents. At what point am I looking for an arrow - in the email list or in the opened and readable Word document?

  • How can I totally remove GoPhoto.it from my MacBook Pro?

    Hello!
    How can I totally remove the malware program GoPhoto.it from my MacBook Pro? I am desperate to get some help on this issue.
    Somehow, the malware GoPhoto.it downloaded itself to my computer. A few days ago in a desperate attempt to delete the program, I followed some instructions that I found online. I deleted the "supposed" file from the "Application Support" folder, but the program continues to plague my laptop! Please help, as I just got this computer a few months ago and would like to make it last as long as possible!
    Blessings and thanks in advance!
    Elizabeth

    Hi, I have the same problem occurred to lizholmes, and:
    -  I have been able to remove GoPhoto.it it from extensions in Safari.
    - The MAC now seams to switch off normally.
    What is still on the Dock is Mac_installer icon. I'm not able to remove it.
    Any suggestions?
    Thx

  • I have a lap top - pc - 10 yrs old - screen went out - how can I transfer pictures word directly to my Macbook pro retinal display 2013

    screen went out on my 10 yr old dell xps m1710 - it appears to still boot - I can't see anything on the screen - I am looking ofr a way to directly access the hard drive pc to pc connection and do direct file transfers - tornado does not work c osx systems yet  any otehr device out there? I have a lot of famiily pictures and some word files I want to transfer - nothing heavy.  it is a screen/hardware issue not someting I can boot c in safe mode - still can''t see the screen and can't see to use a zip drive - I will need to use my new macbook pro 15 retinal display 2013 screen to "see" the files on the pc.
    ideas?
    Thanks
    mhdmd53 -
    usb to usb does not work nor does the tornado device - that is - so far - just pc to pc.

    FireWire between the two (get appropriate 800-800 or 400-800), Target Disk Mode on the old one, appears as an external disk on the new one. Drag everything over, or use Setup Assistant if first start of new one, or plain old Migration Assistant. You really don't need a display to see a prancing FireWire icon, do you?

    (with the added advantage that since you ain't booting anything off the drive, can turn the Mac on or off at will without risking data corruption on the drive)
