How can i get photos from mac to ipad ? please

hi all, i am in a mess !, some how a lot of photos have been deleted from my iPad, and i dont know how ?.
However i do still have these photos on my MacBookPro but i dont remember how i got them onto my iPad originally, over 2 years ago (this is nothing to do with Photo Stream)
So PLEASE PLEASE how do i get these photos back onto my iPad ?. I would rather not use iTunes, i think this may be why the photos have gone AWOL in the first place !!!.
iTunes always seems to be so dammed complicated for my liking
i have an APP called iExplorer but i cant work out how to get that to work, i can two Finder Windows, one for MacBookPro and one for iPad but something seems to be write (or read) protected, i can select all the photos on my MacBookPro in one window but i simply cannot drag them across to the iPad window !!!

Hey Timmy,
I use Dropbox to get my photos to/from my iPad to my computer wirelessly (no iTunes). The process below is one I posted a few weeks ago for the opposite process than what you're wanting to do (from iPad to computer) but Dropbox will work both ways. Just set up a Dropbox folder on your computer and set up the Dropbox app on your iPad and they will both be in sync automatically.
Hope this helps!

---from a post I did a few weeks ago---
The Dropbox app has a very cool auto-upload process that will automatically upload photos from the iPad Camera Roll to Dropbox.
First sign up for a free Dropbox account from your computer.
Then, download the free Dropbox app on your iPad.
Log in to the Dropbox app on the iPad with your new account and click on the Photos icon in the lower left corner of the screen (second one from the left).
Select "Enable Camera Upload" and "Only Wi-Fi." The upload process will begin for all existing photos in the Camera Roll.
From now on, all future photos taken by the iPad will automatically upload to the Dropbox folder. You can then download your photos from Dropbox to your computer by going to http://www.dropbox.com, logging in to your account, and downloading the photos. You can then put the photos on a USB drive or burn to a CD or upload them to a photo processing website.
Hope this helps!
~Joe

    how can i download photos from mac to other hard wear device

    Depends on the actual device.
    If it's an iOS device you can sync via iTunes.
    Other devices: Export from iPhoto to the FInder and send them from there.

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

    If you just have a few that you want to view, you can e-mail them to yourself and use the viewer in the mail app to view them.
    If you have several or want to save them on the iPad or edit them then you'll need an app. Apple has iPad versions of Pages, numbers and keynote that should sync between your mac and iPad.

    How do I get photos from lap top to iPad?

    The photos tab appears on the right-hand side of iTunes when you've selected the device, in the same way as the music, films tabs etc appear for syncing those items to the iPad. You need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad.

  • I can't sync photos from Mac to iPad.

    I can't sync photos from Mac to ipad2 and i have read on the support page How to fix it but it won't work

    Have the photos been taken with the iPad or have the photos been synced to the iPad Air? Photos synced with iTunes to iOS devices cannot be synced back. See this link:  iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes
    If the photos have been synced to the iPad Air, you need an external app as JimHDK recommended. Or mail the photos, which will be tedious. To delete them from the iPad after transferring them, sync again with iTunes, but select no folders to sync.
    If the photos have been taken with the iPad Camera, you can connect the iPad Air to your Mac using a USB cable and then to launch Image Capture or iPhoto to transfer the photos. But that will not transfer synced photos.

  • How do I get photos from iCloud TO iPad?

    I connected my iPad in my computer and I dind't mean to restore it, but ir did. So now all my photos from the iPad are gone, but I know they are on iCloud. But the problem is I didn't make a backup from iCloud, and now I can't get them back to my iPad!
    Please help me, I'm losing my mind here! There are over 1000 photos!
    Thanks

    The only photos backed up to iCloud are the ones in Camera Roll which are only there if you selected iCloud for your iPad Backup. If the backup was setup to be on the computer there may not be one on iCloud. Through the Restore process you should have been prompted to restore from a backup if available. This is you best option for recovering only those photos which were stored in Camera Roll.
    iCloud does have the Photo Stream service which is not intended to be a back up but more of a service to share your photos between other devices. It is possible to use Shared Photo Streams for backups but it is also intened to be used to share photos. The "My Photo Stream" has a 1000 photo and 30 day limit in which photos are removed from the servers once these limits are reached. You can log into iCloud and turn on Photo stream on the iPad which will return any photo still available on the server, but not all will be there.
    Since Photo Stream and iCloud are more of a syncing service other than string the limited data in the iOS backup irreplaceable files should be synced to a dedicated online photo back up service. Or at best transferred to a computer where they can be organized and properly backed up using external drives, CD/DVDs and/or other online services. Once organized iTunes can sync an additional copy for viewing on the iPad.
    Good luck.
