HT1296 how do you transfer documents to ipad?

How do you transfer word documents or spreadsheets and pdfs to my ipad?

You first need one or more apps on the iPad that support those document types - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
The options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents and Numbers for Excel spreadsheets. And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
For PDFs there are free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of word and excel documents).
As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

    How do you transfer photos from iPad to computer?

    For photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from email/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    If you want to copy back photos that were originally synced from a computer then you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video 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 may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

    how do I transfer photos from ipad to imac

    Depends on the photos.
    If the Photos were taken with the iPad or downloaded from the web onto the iPad, simply connect the iPd to the Mac  and use your favorite Photo Application to move them, or simply use Finder to open the iPad icon, (it will show up as a camera) and drag them from there to a folder on your computer.

  • How do you transfer apps from iPad to mac book pro?

    I need to upgrade to the ios5 on ipad I but it says I need to transfer the apps and I don't know how.

    There are purchased items on the iPad “Laura Crowell’s iPad” that have not been transferred to your iTunes library. You should transfer these items to your iTunes library before updating this iPad.
    This is the message I get...and I don't know how to transfer these to the iTunes library.  Perhaps this is my question??

  • How do you transfer photos between ipad and mac on demand?

    New Ipad air, purchased today, upgraded as soon as box was opened to 7.1.1.  Mac mini i7 running mavericks (2 weeks old)
    After waiting an undetermined time for icloud to sync (not very long actually) I find SOME of my photos from my mac on my new ipad.
    I edit on the ipad (the reason I bought it) and cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the edited version to go BACK to my mac.
    Honestly, I thought editing was supposed to be "seamless" across platforms; that what you edited on one showed up on the other.  This is NOT happening and furthermore there seems to be no way to actually deliberately SEND a picture from one to the other.
    The OS makes no sense at all in this regard.  Did I waste myu money on the ipad?  (I can still return it!)

    Figured it out finally.  Save edited pic (edited on ipad) to camera roll, which then automatically uploads to icloud.  Get it on Mac from icloud "project" (or album or whatever it is called) and IMPORT it to aperture for editing, etc.  Then edited pic (edited on Mac) must be dragged to icloud to be available on ipad.
    Quite the runaround, but it works.

  • How do you transfer photos from iPad 1 to macbook?

    I have iCloud, but can't seem to be able to xfer or pick up my photos from the old iPad 1.
    shame on me, my Macbook died and I had not backed my photos up and the only place I have them is on this old iPad......
    Help!

    Hi,
    My challenge is that the photos that I am trying to transfer from my old iPad1 were taken with a camera, not an iOS device.  These instructions say that only photos take with an iOS device
    can be transferred.  There must be a way to get them back onto my mac. 
    Please tell me that I am wrong.

  • How do you transfer apps from an iPad to iPad2

    how do you transfer apps from iPad to iPad2

    If you just want to install the apps then you can either sync them from your computer's iTunes or re-download them directly on the iPad 2 : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you want to sync the apps and their content from the frist gen iPad then you can backup the iPad 1, and then restore the iPad 2 from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)

  • How can I transfer photos from ipad 1 to pc

    I have an ipad 1 - ios 5.1.1
    I want to transfer the photos on the ipad to a windows 8 pc.
    Should be a really simple operation - yes? wrong.
    After visiting 30+ webpages, downloading various 3rd party software (and deleting them again) - I am still unable to transfer photos from my ipad to a windows pc.
    I connect the ipad 1 to a pc using cable.
    PC shows ipad.
    Then you get the option to import photos (Which 20+ websites just repeat).
    Contained in the DCIM Folder is 2 thumbnail photos. Yes - just 2. Two.
    Stored on the ipad is nearly 3,000 photo's. NOT 2!
    So how do you move photos from an ipad to PC?
    Next problem.
    Someone recommended using Syncios - wonderful.
    All photos found.
    All photos copied - except they are copied as thumbnails.
    It would seem that ipad stores your photos as a thumbnail - but when you email the photo the true size is sent. (Thumbnail is 11kb - when I attach the same photo to an email it shows it as 1.1mb)
    So - apart from creating and sending 3000 emails - so that I can transfer photos at their original resolution - HOW DO YOU TRANSFER PHOTOS FROM IPAD 1 TO A PC.
    Apple really couldn't have made a 30second operation more difficult - or deliberately impossible.
    There is NO option to do this via iTunes.
    I can transfer photos from a PC to iPad using iTunes - but not the other way around.
    So - please - does anyone have a degree in astro-physics that can explain how a person is supposed to transfer full sized photos, that are stored as thumbnails - from an iPAD 1 to a Win 8 pc?
    ps... and yes I am irritated. This has taken me 2 days so far, and still unable.
    pps... and no, I really don't need people posting - oh yes I have the same problem... I need answers.

    HHow did the photos get on your iPad? since the original iPad does not have a camera, the photos were either received in emails, copied from the web or synced from your computer. If they were copied from emails or the web they should be available to copy off the iPad using whatever Camera or image capture application you have on your computer. Connect your iPad, start the application and transfer the photos.
    if the photos were synced from your computer, they should still be on the computer used to sync from.

  • How do you transfer Pages files from Mac to ipad?

    How do you transfer Pages documents from Mac to Ipad?

    If you have iOS 5 on the iPad and enabled iCloud in Pages, you can go on your Mac and go to http://icloud.com, then click iWork, then click the gear icon and upload the document. It should appear on your iPad.
    If you have an older OS on the iPad, you will need to plug in to the Mac and launch iTunes. Click on the iPad under DEVICES. Then click on the Apps tab up top. Scroll down until you see a File Sharing section. Click on Pages, then click on the "Add" button.
