How do I get my photos from my PC onto my ipad?

Hi. Just bought myself an Ipad4 32gb and want to have selective photos from my laptop PC viewable on it. I have an iTunes account and my music has automatically appreared and can be played on the iPad, I also have ITunes Match.
Do I need to create some new folders on my PC and place the required photos in them and then synch them to my new iPad by connecting it up? or is there some other way e.g. 'iCloud'?
Sorry but I'm not very techinical so keep it simple please!!
Any help appreciated.

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • HT1349 I have an iPad (1).  Connected a camera connection kit, then inserted a SDHC card.  Nothing happened.  How do I get the photos off the card onto the iPad?

    I have an iPad (1).  Trying to load photos.  Connected a camera kit, inserted an SDHC card with photos.  Nothing....  How do I get the photos loaded onto the iPad?

    At first glance, your iPad should have reacted to the presence of the SDHC card.
    Are you sure the card is SDHC and not SDXC?  I do not think the newer XC format is compatible with the SD adapter in the Camera Connection Kit.
    How did the photos get on the card?  The iPad expects them to be in the same format as if they had been stored there by the camera.  They should be in a folder named DCIS.  Their file names should have 8 characters plus suffix.
    Have you tried connecting the camera's USB cable to the USB adapter in the Camera Connection Kit?

  • How do I get the music from my iPod onto my iPad?

    How do I get my iPod music onto my ipad2?

    One has to assume the music on your iPod is in your iTunes music library?  From there, it's simple.  Simply connect your iPad to iTunes, and after it synchs (you can cancel the synch if you don't want to synch), then click on the iPad on the left hand side.  Your device will be up on the screen.  Click on music and check which music you want to synch to your iPad, then synch and your music will be there.......

  • My Laptop was stolen. How can I get my photos from my iphone onto my new laptop that are in albums, not the camera roll?

    I have photos in albums that are stored on my iphone. My laptop that I had everything backed up on was stolen. I would like to be able to re-sync my iphone with my new laptop (Windows 8) without losing the photos that are in my albums. I'd prefer not to have to individually email them all to myself and I have everything off the camera roll already. I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

    Also, ALL of the photos were taken by my iphone.

  • HT201269 How do I get the music from my iPod onto my iPad

    What cable do I need to link my iPod to my iPad (retina display)

    If the content is already on the computer that you sync the iPad to then as long as his account is authorised on it (via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option) then you should be able to sync it to the iPad in the same way that it was synced to the iPod (syncing music).
    If the music isn't yet in that computer's iTunes then you can copy it over to it : copying music.

  • How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    How can I get all photos from iPhoto to automatically back up to iCloud from my Mac OSX Version 10.6.8 operating system.  Not enough memory to upgrade.

    You can't.  iCloud is not for general file backup from a Mac. It's for backup up and syncing data between mobile devices and and Macs and  The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Backup and restore overview.
    iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your (mobile) device using iOS 5 or later. Once you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch .....
    What is backed up
    You get unlimited free storage for:
    Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and books
    Notes: Backup of purchased music is not available in all countries. Backups of purchased movies and TV shows are U.S. only. Previous purchases may not be restored if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. These movies will indicate that they are not available in iTunes in the Cloud on their product details page in the iTunes Store. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer available in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
    You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails
    But not from a Mac.  If you want to backup your photos and other important files I suggest you get an external hard drive and use  it with Time Machine.

  • How can I get all photos from the camera roll onto the photo stream so they will share between iphone and ipad?

    How can I get all photos from the camera roll, and all new pictures taken, to get on the photostream so they can share between iphone and ipad?

    When turning PhotoStream on with photos available in the Camera Roll, only photos captured by the iPhone or saved on the iPhone are placed in the PhotoStream.
    For all photos that were in the Camera Roll prior to turning PhotoStream on, import the photos with your computer and add the photos to your PhotoStream on your computer.

  • How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12?

    How do I get my photos from a previous version of Photoshop Elements (6) into Photoshop Elements 12? Do I restore from a backup?  I have over 12,000 pics ( a good portion with multiple versions) and don't want to lose captions and metadata. Thank you in advance for your help.

    If this is on the same computer just install PSE 12. It should find your old catalog and upgrade it to PSE 12. If for some reason it doesn't, then go to file>manage catalogs, find your old catalog and tell PSE 12 to convert it.
    If this is a new computer, then yes, full backup and restore.

  • How do I get my photos from Elements 11 into a file folder.

    How do I get my photos from Elemtnts 11 into a file folder.  I am trying to use Blurb to make a travel book but because of the number of photos I have them in groups and want them to stay in groups for the book.  Unfortunately the photos in each grouping are all over the place and will be definitely difficult and time consuming to bring into Blurb.

    Thank you.  I tried this before I wrote the question as the photos had just disappeared!
      I was very nervous to try this again but did with some junk photos and after much trial and error - it worked!  I'm not a real pro as you can tell and appreciate your help.

  • How do i get a photo from LR to my iphone   thank you    joanlvh

    how do I get a photo from LR to my iphone    thank you   joanlvh

    In iTunes you can choose to use a folder for photos rather than iPhoto.
    I have a folder in Pictures called iPhone, and I export to subfolders of this. These subfolders become albums in the Photos application.
    I have a preset setup to give me 760 long edge photos, sRGB at quality 80.
    If you want to be even lazier about it, you could set up an Export Preset folder called iPhone and create a preset for each folder. So you could make a preset called Friends that exports to the subfolder Friends. (this is then an album called Friends on the iPhone)
    Export the photos you want on the iPhone and then sync via iTunes.
