How do I transfer a folder of docs to ipad

I am not sure how to do this. I have a lot of word documents and I have the pages app on my ipad. I want to edit the word docs in pages, but the only way I could get them to my ipad 2 was emailing them. They would only open as an uneditable document. How do I send them to the cloud, or can I add the documents to my ipad via a sync.
I have been trying a few things and can't get the docs over, let alone to open in pages.
Cheers.

If you haven't done so, setup an iCloud account >  Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices
To keep your Pages documents up to date, once you have iCloud setup, on the Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Make sure  Documents & Data is selected.
On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Make sure Documents & Data is switched on.
The next time you edit a document on your Mac it will be updated on the iPad and vice versa via Wi-Fi.

    I somehow deleted a folder filled with bookmarks from Safari. I have the same folder on my Firefox application. How do I transfer the folder on Firefox over to Safari?

    I found the post under the "More Like This" window at the top right of the Discussions page:
    Essentially, it led me to:
    In my case I didn't want to import all of my bookmarks, just a folder.
    What I did was: In Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize
    Select the file folder of bookmarks I wanted to move to Safari
    Under the "star"icon in toolbar, select Export HTML
    Select location to save the file, then SAVE
    Open Safari,

    The easiest method is to setup an iCloud account, turn on Contacts syncing in Settings > iCloud on both devices, and the Contacts from the iPhone will sync to the iPad.

  • TS2776 How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

    How can I transfer e-mail contacts from one IPad to another?

    Depends on how big the file is.  If itis only a couple of pages, or mostly text, the easiest way would be to e mail it.  If it is a very large file you are going to need wifi.  Take both pads to starbucks, and e mail it from there.  Or if you have wifi, use drop box, for example. 
    Your other choice, avoiding wifi would be a bluetooth type transfer.  There is an app call bluetooth file lite that reads like it will do what you need.   The good news is it is free.  The bad news is that it has terrible ratings.  For grins, i am installing it now on a pad and a phone, and will see if it works.
    With a bluetooth method, you need both devices in  the same place.  If you are trying to send your file across country, bluetooth will not work for you.  you need e mail or drop box type solution, and if the file is big, you will almost certainly need wifi.

  • How can I transfer photos from my pc to iPad using iTunes?

    HOw can I transfer photos from my pc to iPad using iTUnes?

    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 (though it looks like Apple are doing some maintenance at the moment so the link isn't working). 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 - not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad (synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad).

  • How do I transfer my account To my new ipad?

    I have a new Mini/Retina that I want to replace my iPad 2 with.  I want to use my same old AT&T account for cellular/data connection, so how do I transfer my account To my new iPad?
    The guy at the AT&T store (where I bought the Mini) said I would have to start it as a backup from the old machine, and I might have to switch SIM cards (believable), but there must be more to it than that.  At what point shoud I shut off the old iPad account?  If I do it at the wrong time it seems like there should be a conflict (perhaps the SIM card).  Is there a procedure posted anywhere?  (He also gave me a 1-800 number to call for help - so I suspect I'll need it.  But you guys are so good, I'll start here.)
    TIA

    If your iPad 2 has a newer iOS version than your new iPad Air then you'll need to update the iPad Air to newest iOS before you can restore it from the iPad 2's backup. Its conceivable that being in the store the new iPad air does not have the most recent iOS installed.
    Anyway as to the AT&T service. you should not have to anything on the old iPad.
    Simply remove the sim card, go to your AT&T store and ask for a new sim that fits your new iPad with your current service on it. Then simply insert the new sim card into the new iPad.  In the process of setting up the new sim card, the old one will be deactivated by AT&T.
    Without a sim card the old iPad will have no cell service.

    How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro
    I am facing problem while I connect to my iPad mini with MacBook Pro , it only sync photo from its taken by and from it camera roll only. It doesn't sync all the images... Like my all albums. All photos in library....

    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
    You should also be able to copy albums that you've created directly on the iPad via apps such as Simple Transfer (though I haven't tried it)

  • How do I transfer all my data from an iPad Air wifi 32 GB to a brand new iPad Air 2 64GB?

    I received right now a brand new iPad Air2 wifi 64 GB. How do I transfer ALL MY DATA from another iPad Air wifi 32 GB ?

    Back up your old one. I use and prefer iTunes, but back up all the data, etc.
    Then unplug it. Plug your new one in and go through the setup steps. When you see the option to set up as new or restore from the backup you just made, choose that and your new iPad will be a near clone of the old one.

    If you are going to get rid of your old iPad, read this before you do so, just to make sure you're not inadvertantly selling someone a brick

    After downloading IOS 6 all my stored pictures were wiped off.  I later noticed that the pictures are still there on photo stream on my Facebook and google accounts. How do I transfer these pictures back to my iPad from any of these accounts?

    I once had a sync problem that turned out to be that a specific photo was corrupted and impeded the process from continuing. Try to see if it gets stuck at a specific photo, then delete just that one.
