How do I access files on my Netgear Stora with Ipad?

I have an Ipad2 and would like to be able to transfer files from my Netgear Stora drive to my Ipad.  My Ipad can see the Stora drive but does not display any content.  What do I need to do to be able to access the files on the Stora drive?

First you have to share a folder or volume on the PC. How to do this depends on what operating system you have on the PC.
Once you have that set up, open a Finder window and look in the Sidebar under Shared. You may see the PC there. If not, go to the Go menu and select Connect to Server, and enter smb:// followed by your PC's IP address. You should be able to connect to the files that way. See this Apple article for further information.
Best of luck.

  • How can I access USB drive on AirPort Extreme with iPad

    Good day. I recently purchased an AirPort Extreme, and am very pleased. I thought I would take advantage of the ability to store files and videos of my children on my USB drive on the router. Installation was flawless, however, i cannot access the USB drive with my IPad. I have seen several postings about this, am i correct in reading that this is not possible without a 3rd party app? If that is the case, could someone point me in the right direction?

    Have you tried this? (And is the Airport new enough that you can call Apple?)
    *Manually mounting Mac OS Extended (HFS+) volumes*
    *From the Finder's Go menu choose Connect to Server.*
    *Enter the AirPort Extreme Base Station's LAN IP address (by default 10.0.1.1).*
    *Enter the username and password required to access the AirPort Disk(s).*
    *Select the desired AirPort Disk(s) from the available Volumes.*
    *Manually mounting FAT16/FAT32 volumes*
    *From the Finder's Go menu choose Connect to Server.*
    *Enter the AirPort Extreme Base Station's LAN IP address preceded by smb:// (for example, smb://10.0.1.1 )*
    *Enter the username and password required to access the AirPort Disk(s). Leave the Workgroup field empty unless you have assigned one in AirPort Utility.*
    *Select the desired AirPort Disk from the available CIFS (Common Internet File System) volumes*

  • How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; I also have Microsoft Word installed on the Mac as well.

    How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; none of the options I choose work. I also have Microsoft Office (with Word) installed on the Mac as well.

    Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

  • How do I access files with an iPad on a Lion Server?

    One of the reasons I upgraded fron Snow Leopard server to Lion server is to access files from an iPad and iPhone.  I see in the File Sharing sharepoint configuration box the iOS checkbox, but how do I get to the files from the iPad?

    Thank you for shaking my brain!  I kept looking for a file structure to show up, such as Fidner.  Your answer got me thinking correctly. Instead of looking for a "Finder", I opened Pages on my iPad and touched "+" then "copy from webdav".  From there I got a login screen and typed https://servername.com/webdav plus my credentials and it got me right to the files on the server!  I can now access files on my server from my iPad and can save the changes back!  It works both on the local network and remotely!  Thanks again!

    Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

  • How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

    How do I access files that have been recovered (after a Mavericks problem) with the .cca file extension

    First, to access documents you must use an app designed for that specific Document type. So Pages will not be able to open PDFs. The Documents app by Readdle can handle PDFs though. In the latter case, you'd open the app, click the menu icon at its top left, and click Open to go to your iCloud Drive. With Pages, if you had files outside the main Pages folder, click + then iCloud and navigate to the file's location.

  • How can I transfer files from my mac to my iPad, e.g., mp4 files.  Do I have to use iTunes?

    How can I transfer files from my mac to my iPad in an easier way?  I'd like to put some movies on, and I can use iTunes, but is there another way?  I have transferred epub books using Dropbox.  Movies eat up a lot of dropbox space and the iPad has trouble getting them.

    USB disk. You still have to go through iTunes.
    Connect device to computer/mac
    Select your device in iTunes menu.
    Apps...
    At thebottom of the page you will see the app.
    Select it and the Add for windows and + for mac
    Hope that helped.
    In the long run there is no way to access or uplood data on your device without iTunes unless you JailBrake....

  • How to import MXF files to Final Cut Pro with smooth editing

    Summary: Follow this tutorial to learn how to import and edit MXF files in Final Cut Pro by converting MTS to FCP native format.
    If you have a Panasonic P2, Canon XF or Sony XDCAM series camcorder,
    you may be familiar with Material eXchange Format (MXF). Though MXF is a
    great video format to record high-definition videos, it is not easy to
    use in that they are not natively supported by most NLE systems like
    Final Cut Pro. In order to import MXF to FCP for editing, the easy workaround is to transcode MXF files to FCP compatible video formats.
    Along with some help from a top MXF Converter, it can be done. To
    help those who wanna edit MXF files in FCP without problems, here I
    share with you a simple guide on how to convert MXF files to edit in
    Final Cut Pro 6/7 or FCP X.
    First of all, downloading the App- Brorsoft MXF Converter for Mac
    Overall, the program is a professional yet easy-to-use MXF Converter
    on Mac (Mavericks included) which can not only convert XF100, Canon
    C300, XF105 and XF305, Panasonic P2 recorded MXF files, but also provide
    simple video editing functions for you. The MXF to FCP Converter not
    only can convert MXF to ProRes for FCP, but also can transcode MXF
    videos for editing in Avid MC, Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie, FCE, etc.
    Just download it and follow the tutorial below to get the work done.
    Transcoding (P2) MXF files to ProRes for Final Cut Pro 6/7/X
    1. Import MXF files to the converter
    Launch the best MXF to FCP Converter, and then click the “add files” button to browse and import MXF videos from your camcorder or hard drive.
    2. Select FCP editable format
    Click the Format bar, and move mouse cursor to choose “Final Cut Pro > Apple ProRes 422 (*.mov)” as output format.
    Tips:
    a. Settings- click to set video
    resolution(1920×1080/1440×1080/1280×720/720×480), bitrate (from 1Mbps to
    20Mbps), frame rate (24p/30p)
    b. Editor (next to “Add” icon)- click to set deinterlace, trim, crop, add effect, attach subtitles, etc
    3. Start transcoding MXF video to FCP
    Click “Convert” button to start converting MXF files to Apple ProRes
    MOV for FCP 6/7/X under Mac OS. Once the MXF to ProRes 422 conversion
    is done, you can transfer MXF footage into Final Cut Pro (X) for editing
    smoothly on Mac with ease.

    Authorize your new computer's iTunes first - Store>Authorize this computer.
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
    This discussion has much of the same information and even some more helpful tips.

  • How did my pdf files get converted from 'open with Adobe Reader' to open with Adobe Acobat'?  And if I have a ''free'' Acrobat account why does it not open?  When I do click on the account it ask me to pay $89.99.  I never wanted Acrobat.  How can I get -

    How did my stored files get converted from 'open with Adobe READER' to 'open with Adobe ACROBAT'? How can I get them re-set to open with 'Adobe Reader'?

    It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
    The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.

  • How do add .mov files in Premiere Elements 11 with Windows 8? I get a generic error message.

    How do add .mov files in Premiere Elements 11 with Windows 8? I get a generic error message.

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for your quick response. The original movies were taken on a Canon ES970 (1990's). I don't know the resolution but things were not as high tech back then.,.. I used a Roxio software to convert them on my MacBook Air. I didn't realize that I could use Adobe Premiere Elements to do that or I would have. However my old camera did not have a cable to attach it to a computer and the Roxio software came with it.
    I then saved the recordings on an external hard drive. I did not make movies from them using iMovie or edit them in any way. They are simply .MOV files and they can be played on my Mac. Upon realizing how much memory it takes to work on videos, I decided it might be easier to burn DVD's on my husband's  new Dell desktop that came with Windows 8. I downloaded Quicktime as suggested and still the movies can't be added to Premiere.

  • How can I access music that is now unavailable with iTunes 11?

    How can I access music that is now unavailable with iTunes 11?

    Many of the tunes have exclamation marks by them and iTunes says they "cannot be found". If I do a search throughout my computer I find the songs. But it is very inconvenient.

  • Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    We relied upon the "days available for download" to get people to take
    action more quickly. The "virus scanning" progress bar was simply another
    way of knowing this activity was actually taking place - unless this is
    written somewhere in the Adobe Send User Guide.....wherever that is.
