How to transfer my iPad 4 iOS 7 music files using iTunes and GoodReader (latest version) app to my Macbook Pro (Mid 2010)

The GoodReader user manual procedure allows me to transfer files from macbook to iPad but not the other way. I can see my iPad music files via iTunes on the MBP screen. However, I cannot select the music files for transfer to GoodReader, My Documents folder. Once they are in the Goodreader folder, then it is easy to transfer them to MBP.
Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Thanks for your response, Demo.
I'm using the latest version of iTunes, also my MBPS is 10.6.8.  My music files on my ipad are MPEG type and they should be compatible with iTunes and GoodReader. These files were already in my iPad before I installed GoodReader.
I want to move the files from my ipad to my MBPS. I previously thought that I am supposed to move these files myself to GoodReader documents folder by following some steps. But after reading the instructions for file transfer, I realized that the GR documents folder should show ALL the files on my iPad. While it shows a couple of documents that I downloaded after the GR was installed, it does NOT show the music files that were on iPad before. This is the problem.
I'm wondering if there is another way of getting these files to theMBP. These files should have a physical location on the iPad. Is it possible to access that location and move them from there? I tried to drag and drop these files from iTunes to a thumb drive in Finder but it did not work.

  • How do I permanently delete music files from itunes AND my  computer (without going to the folder to delete each item)? It's a windows system. I've tried 'reset all dialogue warnings' as I've been told to do but no luck. Files are still in Itunes folders.

    Solved! Music was in Itunes folder but not in Media folder within that. It doesn't seem like a very user friendly system so far!

  • HT1660 when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retireved?

    when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retrieved?

    The file is just left where it was when it was connected to the library. Typically:
         <User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/<Artist>/<Album>/## <Name>.<Ext>
    If you want to add it back just drag it into iTunes. If you want to cull the files you kept previously add the entire iTunes Media folder back into iTunes (or use one of Doug's scripts that has the same effect), then delete (and don't keep) the recent additions.
    Note that warning/prompt is only issued when the files you are removing are located inside the designated iTunes Media folder.

  • Charge new ipad on macbook pro (mid 2010)

    I have a Macbook Pro MID 2010. When I connect my new ipad using MAC OS X Lion it charges normally, but when I connect it on my Windows 7, it doesn’t.
    does any of you guys know how to make it work?

    Newer mac books have USB ports that provide sufficient wattage to charge an iPad.  Very few windows laptops have high powered USB ports so they can only trickle charge an iPad when they can easily charge an iPhone. 
    It is because the iPad, as has been mentioned, needs to pull 10 watts through the charging system to do a normal charge.  This is why the iPad comes with a dedicated 10 wall charger and not the standard 2.5 watt wall charger that comes with the iPhone and iPod.
    If you need to buy an extra wall charger for your iPad for when you are on the road or to keep at work make sure it is truly iPad compatible.  I found a really nice two port charger that provides high (10 watts) capacity on one port and low (2.5 watts) on the other.  So I can charge both my iPhone and iPad at the same time without damaging my devices or the charger.

  • How to download macbook pro (mid 2010) drivers for windows 7, without the included DVD (lost) ?

    Hello everyone,
    I am facing a problem with bootcamp on my Macbook pro 15" (Mid 2010, running Mos OS 10.6.6).
    I have successfully installed windows 7 via Bootcamp, but I lost the Drivers DVD furnished by Apple.
    I tried to download these using Bootcamp (v3.0.4), but bootcamp won't let me save it, i get this error :
    "the windows support software could not be saved to the selected folder"
    An Apple support article has been made for this problem ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3648 ), but it doesn't solve the problem in my case because I lost the furnished DVD.
    So here I am, struck on this drivers issue...
    So, my question is :
    How to download macbook pro (mid 2010) drivers for windows 7, without the included DVD (lost) ?
    Thank you for your help !
    Regards

    Aw, and I forgot, being in Thailand, they do not sell the installation DVD.

  • How much does it cost to replace the speakers in MacBook Pro (mid 2010)?

    The sound from my MacBook Pro (mid 2010)  has suddenly become fuzzy. I suspect that I blew a speaker.
    Does anyone know how much it would cost to have one or all the speakers replaced?

    You may check for pricing on the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com websites.  You may also bring the MBP into an Apple store genius bar and get a replacement quote from them.
    Ciao.

  • How do I manage music files using iTunes in the iCloud?

    HW: HP laptop running win 7 and itunes 10.6.3.25; home sharing is on; itunes match is on;
    iPhone 4S w/iTunes; itunes wifi sync will use the hp laptop; itunes match is on; use cellular data is on sho all music is on; auto downloads for music is on; icloud says 4.1 gb available
    I have about 1000 music files on my pc
    I spent 3 hours sending them all to itunes match
    now I have:
         duplicate tune files on my phone
         files on my pc that lost their track/artist info and now appear as Track 1 (2,3,etc)
              i have listened to all of these and renamed them manually
         music files that were on my phone are now missing
         music files that were shipped on my pc that I never played/wanted are on my phone
    In addition, I used to be able to select and play music from "music" on the phone through the radio in my car. Now, the selected music only plays through the phone speaker, while, at the same time, the radio starts playing the entire library in alphabetical order from the first song title.
    This is a nightmare.
    How do I delete unwanted tunes from my iPhone? How do I get everything to match up? How do I wipe all the music from my phone and my laptop so I can just start over?
    much gratitude and many thanks.
    And if anyone can tell me how to change my "name" in profile, that would be great too.

    should have mentioned:
    iphone is connected via usb to pc and they are on the same wireless network
    itunes on the pc occasionally freezes/loses the iphone (it disappears from the device list)/says it does not recognize the iphone
    all device, app, and os updates have been run in the last week.
    All of this misery started on Tuesday--i spent 3 hours on the phone with an apple tech to step me through the match process, and didn't discover all the problems until a few hours later.
    Thanks again...

  • How do i transfer music files from an sd card to a late 2008 model Macbook Pro?

    The android phone I have is really messed up and I can't plug it in with a USB cable to transfer the music files so is there anyway I can transfer them with just the sd card? I know on the newer models there's a slot for the sd card adapter but it's not on my model. Any help?

    If is a MicroSD card you'll need a MicroSD to SD card adapter. Something like this.
    Once you have one of those just insert it into the SD card slot on your Mac then open a Finder window and select all the images and press Command + c to copy then go to the folder you want to put them in and select it and press Command + v to paste to that folder.

  • Editing Music Files Using iTunes

    If I am Editing Information to a song(s) file in iTunes, does that information I'm adding change the song(s) root file to my preference?
    So when I copy my music to my External HDD then clean my computer, I will move it back to iTunes. Will my information still be with the root song(s) file to add to iTunes?
    - No I will not use TimeMechine
    - Yes my Preference to Organize my music files is ON

    When you edit a song file *with iTunes,* the information gets written to the file itself as soon as you click "OK." There are a few exceptions: (1) Info for WAV files is not written to the file. (2) If you don't have write permission, the changes will not take (3) Certain information, such as Rating, is stored in the library, not in the file. (4) If you have multiple copies of the song file, iTunes only changes the copy that the library is referencing.
    When you edit a song file *with a 3rd party editor,* iTunes will pick up the changes the next time it uses the file, e.g. to play it.
    If you are making a backup of your iTunes library, copying the song files is not sufficient. You need to back up the entire iTunes folder so that you have all your library information.

  • Streaming m3u files using iTunes and not QuickTime plug-in

    Hi,
    I am listening to mp3 files using a webserver and streaming m3u files. When I click on the url I get the QuickTime plug-in. I don’t like the QuickTime plug-in very much so I would like to have iTunes starting instead of QuickTime.
    I have chosen to use iTunes for m3u files but it do not work. If I save the m3u file to my disc and double click iTunes is starting as I want but not when clicking on the link in Safari.
    Is there any solution to get iTunes starting when clicking on a link instead of QuickTime plug-in?
    The link looks like this: http://www.samplelink.info/custom.m3u?ltype=SEARCHRESULTS

    Hi
    I'm generally ignorant in the way of those computer thingies, but seeing as no one else has responded, I'll venture my poorly informed opinion.
    It seems to me that what you're asking for can't be done (as yet). What you would need is an "iTunes plug-in" effectively, which I don't think exists.
    The only way you could set iTunes as the default for playing m3u is to leave the web/browser context (i.e. by downloading the m3u file) and then opening it with iTunes, which you already know how to do.

  • Am using Macbook pro mid 2010 running on OSX 10.9.5. It does not read my old Seagate back up plus ITB ext hard disk which opens and works on snow leopard. The back ups were made on snow leopard and mountain lion. How do I make it work on Mavericks?

    I have been making back ups on a Seagate Back up plus drive on a macbook pro running on Mountain lion. Sadly the mac was stolen and all I had was the seagate back up. I tried opening it on my old iMac running on snow leopard and after several visits to this forum managed to open it. The data was safe and sound. Now I have received a hand me down macbook pro which runs on osx 10.9.5. I'm assuming there is a compatability issue as the drive does not come on at all when I hook it up to the usb port. I checked the seagate drive once again on the imac and its light came on on that system. Then I suspected there may be a problem with this macbook pro usb port. But it seemed to work fine when i hooked my camera cord into it. Is it that I must reinstall mavericks. In which case how do I back up before reformatting or reinstalling. BTW I did the command+ R thingy and repaired my internal Hard disc which was showing errors. What do I do next, your help is most appreciated if you have had a similar problem.

    Your 2010 MBP would be able to handle Yosemite, but I would strongly suggest that you get the current problem sorted out before trying to upgrade to Yosemite. I'd also recommend another backup that isn't created by Time Machine if you are thinking of upgrading. SuperDuper and CarbonCopyCloner can make bootable clones of hard drives. If you clone your existing system to a fresh external drive, you would be able to boot from that drive and recover quickly in the event that your Yosemite upgrade didn't work out. Time Machine backups are not 100% reliable.
    It's possible that, if your internal HD is the one that shipped with your MBP in 2010, it may be failing. If it keeps needing repairs, that is probably a sign that it is approaching the end of its useful life.
    Have you run Disk Utility's Repair tool on the external drive as well?
    I mentioned the hub because some people have reported here that attaching their USB 3 drives through a USB 2 hub solved some disconnection problems. A good-quality powered USB 2 hub won't cost much.
    My most recent brush with random disconnections involved a nice new OWC drive enclosure. I used the cable that came with the drive, but the drive kept disconnecting. Using a different cable solved the problem. You wouldn't expect that what appeared to be a high quality cable would be a problem straight out of the box, but it was.
