How do I play files from my computer on my ipad?

I have several files on my Mac Pro in Itunes under playlists/music that I want to also play on my ipad. I did sync my ipad with itunes on my computer, but these files don't show anywhere on the ipad. When I hit Music on the ipad I get a screen that says No Content-you can download from the itunes store. Where are the files from itunes on my computer found on the ipad to play.

Sounds like you didn't actually sync.

Make sure you see the sync process bar in the top display in iTunes.

How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play with quicktime but not iTunes so I can't sync them

Th AVPlayerHD works well for playing other video types. You can transfer the videos via USB in the app tab in iTunes on your computer. When you open that tab when you have you iPad connected to the computer scroll down and you will see apps listed on the left and a blank on the right. Click on the app and then click on the add button under the blank window on the right. Then navigate to the video you want to play and it will transfer it to the iPad. I have about 14 movies on mine using AVPlayerHD. works very well. Also have VLC player (before it was yanked from the app store). Works about the same.
You can also get the app Air Video and stream the video to from your computer to the iPad, and even have Theo ad connected to the tv to watch on there. I do that all the time with my iPhone. Saves time with not having to sync movies all the time.

Try a conduit such as Dropbox.
Goodreader or Documents to Go also have helper apps that allow transfers.
Goodreader is particularly good in that it has a integal file tree and you can mount your computers harddrive and navigate directly on your ipad.
Use the open with to view/move files into other apps.

You've sycned other content via your computer's iTunes to the phone ?
You can sync photos to your phone via your computer's iTunes : connect your phone to your computer, click on its icon towards the top left of the iTunes screen, and select Photos on the left-hand side of the screen :
Photos that you sync from a computer can't be deleted directly in the phone's Photos app, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync - so you will need to include all photos that you want from your computer in each photo sync.

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.

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....

I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader.

I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader. I do not want to view them in iBooks or Quickoffice. Since I cannot email these large files, how can I get them on my iPad? Thanks for your help.

I think that Adobe reader supports file sharing.
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under "devices". Click on the Apps Tab in the window on the right. Scroll down to the File Sharing Apps list under the main apps list. Click on Adobe Reader. Drag the documents into the file sharing window on the right or select them using the "add" button.
Launch the Adobe reader app and the files should be in there.

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.)

I want to temporarily put pictures that I took from another camera that's on my desktop into my IPAD so I can carry it to another location and show off my pictures to friends and family?

Connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will 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 - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you want more control over your photos (e.g. being able to sort them directly on the iPad and delete synced photos) then there are third-party photo apps such as Photo Manager Pro.

How do I move a keynote file from my computer to my ipad?

I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.8 and an Ipad version 7.0.6. How can I move a Keynote file from my Mac to my Ipad? I do not have Icloud on my Mac.

Have you tried e-mailing the Keynote file to yourself? You can then press and hold on the attachment in Mail and choose to open in Keynote. However the results may depend on your version of Keynote.
