How do I move GarageBand files from iPad 2 to New iPad?

My laptop is a PC, not a Mac.
At the Apple store I was told it was no problem. I merely back up my iPad 2 and then restore my New iPad (3) from that backup. So far it isn't working and I've tried several times.
Weirdly, when I first set up my New iPad (3) iTunes set it up as the default "Steve's iPad" which is what I called my iPad 2 on iTunes, and  my GarageBand files appeared on my new IPad (3). So I know it's possible.
HOWEVER, I hadn't backed up or synched my iPad 2 in a while, so my newer GarageBand files weren't on it.  So I backed up/synched my iPad 2 and then restored my New iPad to original settings, and clicked on "restore from Steve's iPad"  No luck. No GarageBand files. I tried this several times,with no luck.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here is how you can export a .band folder to your iPhone, it should work for iPad as well.
This was my steps
1. Download iExplorer and install it. Connect your iPhone
2. Find the folder "com.apple.mobilegarageband" in iExplorers browser
3. Drag and drop your folder .band to the folder "Documents". (!! Your'e not done yet!)
4. In GarageBand on your iPhone press the plus-button as you would start a new song. Choose "Copy from iTunes". Choose your imported song.
5. Start rockin'

  • How do i move garageband files from my itunes back to my phone??

    hi i made some songs on my wifes phone and now i got one so i want to transfer them to the new phone.... how can i do this through itunes??

    At the moment iTunes can't add a folder to the file sharing area, only individual files. Looking at an iMovie project it is exported as a zip file with a .iMobileMovie extension and I don't really understand why the same hasn't been done with .band exports.
    I have seen reports of success using iExplorer (formerly iPhoneExplorer) to add projects to the device but having completely failed to get it to work, or even show me the contents of the GarageBand app's folder on my iPhone I can't really suggest that as an option right now.
    I have however submitted a bug report about the issue so hopefully it will be addressed at some point.

  • How do I get GarageBand files from an older mac onto my iPad 2?

    How do I get GarageBand files from an older mac onto my iPad 2? I can open the GarageBand Documents folder through iTunes while the iPad is sync'd but I can't seem to "add..." any of my old .band folders to the iPad to be able to view those music projects. When I tried I could only sync individual data files contained in the .band folders over to the iPad and there was no way to organize them into .band project folders. What can I do here to get these GarageBand projects onto my iPad for further use?

    This is not currently possible. You can transfer an iPad project to the Mac, and transfer songs/loops from the Mac to iPad, but not GB files from Mac to iPad.

  • How do I move a file from my mailbox to my desktop/

    How do I move a file from my mailbox to my desktop ?

    As there is no "desktop" on the iPad, do you mean you want to move a file attachment from an email received on your iPad to the desktop of your computer?
    If so, the easiest way is just to access your email account on your computer and save the attachment directly.

    I have elements 9 running on computer A. I now have elements 11 running on computer B. How do i move my files from computer A to B?

    Do a full backup using the organizer's backup command on computer A. Then restore that to computer B.
    EDIT It will probably go smoothest if you use some kind of removable drive for the backup location.

  • How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?

    How do I move music files from the startup disc to iTunes in the other internal hard disk os 10.5.8?
    The music I want to move was in iTunes but is now just files. I had to reinstall a new iTunes and lost all my old music.
    Thank you!

    That article is about using your iPod as an external hard drive, to move files from one computer to another computer.  It is not related to your question.
    You can't use iTunes to move song files from iPod to computer, except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download purchases).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can move song files from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your current computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library by dragging the files (or folder containing the files) to the iTunes window.  After confirming everything is there (and fixing the data issue you mentioned) you can sync the iPod.  You may want to do a Restore on the iPod, if it might have a data corruption issue, which will erase the iPod's hard drive, re-install the latest software, and set it to defautl settings.

  • How do I move my files from my Macbook to a pc?

    How do I move my files from my MAcbook to my pc?

    What operating system is the PC running?
    You will need to turn on file sharing on the PC. For Windows XP use methods described here. Windows 7 here.
    Connect to the shared Windows volume by going to the Go menu in the Finder and selecting Connect to Server... In the resulting dialog type smp:// and the IP address of your windows machine. Click Connect and enter your Windows machine's username and password when prompted.
    The Windows share will now appear on your Mac's desktop. Drag the items you want to copy over to it.
    Best of luck.

  • How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    How do I move all files from an old PPC to a new Mac Mini?

    The new mini has a Firewire 800 port. Likely the PPC version only has Firewire 400.  The OP will need a converter cable which is why I was asking first about what hardware is available and how much is being copied.
    Probably go with using the external hard drive if you decide all you want are data files.
