I am new to the Apple world and yesterday i bought an APPLE IPAD (4th Gen) .. My Question is "Can we connect a flash drive to the IPAD4 and transfer pdf files to and fro"??

Hi all,
I am a newbie to the Apple World and Yesterday I bought an APPLE IPAD (4th Generation).. My primary purpose is to read pdf files on IPAD4.
I have 3 questions ..
1. Can we connect a usb flash drive to the ipad4 and read pdf files from it?
2. I am using windows since 2000 and accustomed to the file explorer and file management in it. Can I get such kind of environment in IPAD4 ?
3. Do I have to sync the IPAD too often?
Regards,
Manikanth

Sandisk has recently come out with a device

Never used it so I can't comment on whether or not it works well. There are very few devices out there that allow file transfer without going through iTunes or via the internet. IMHO, one real weakness of the iPad, great for consuming data, however not very fully featured when it comes to moving data around, especially if that data doesn't come from iTunes or other online source.
there is also a device called a WiDrive

that is also a wireless drive for iPads.

Can I load adobe flash drive on the I-pad or is there an alternative?

can I load adobe flash drive on the I-pad or is there an alternative?

Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad - and Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they've recently announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, and there is the built-in YouTube app.

I have an iPod that when I try to update the Apps that are shown to need update-ding and when I indicated to have them updated I get a message "can not connect to App store". The ipod has been updateing until recently. I came still down load new App and

I submitted my question but ran out of room in the box. I can still down load new Apps to my iPod touch AND update them but CAN NOT update the older Apps. that was on the iPod before the problem.
I have been to Three Apple Service Center stores - In Tulsa OK, Oklahoma City OK, Tacoma WA and NO ONE could tell me what is the problem OR what to do to correct it. The Tech then tells me to get hold of the main Apple Service Center number. I tell them I already have and they still recommend going to them.
I have erased all information and started over as a new iPod Touch but the problem persists.
I have called the Apple Service number and they tell me to do everything that the the Tech's at the Apple Service center stores tried to do but DID NOT work.
After I spend a lot of time on the phone, I get told to make an appointment at a Apple Service center store so they can physically have hands on assistance. Come on folks I have already done that and they were of no help. When I say that, I get told that may be the only way I can get the problem resolved.
Surely there is someone out there that knows something about what is happening OR not happening with my iPod and provide a solution.
Thank You for your concideration

After ios7 my ipad 4th gen is fast but hangs with no response from any of the buttons or touch pad

I bought ipad (with retina display) with ios 6.0.1 but I recently upgraded to ios7.
Post that, today I had a serious problem. When I used Music app, after some time all the input mechanisms stoppd; no buttons worked; no input possible from the screen. I had to restart by pressing the power down and the central circle button together for 10 sec to reboot the ipad.
Is this a specific proble with the ios7 or with the music app or with my HW. I have never faced this problem before I upgraded to ios7.
thanks

Sorry, never heard of a blue water sensor. I'd plug your phone in to mains, leave it overnight and try again tomorrow.

HT5205 Why is HK carrier 1010(CSL) 4G LTE cannot be used in iPad 4th gen. I have subscribed to 1010 4G plan and under contract. However, I cannot use the 4G LTE service in the 4th gen iPad I just bought. Why Apple is so unfair ?

I have asked my local carrier 1010 about their LTE service and they said the frequency of their 4G is actually matched with iPad 4th gen but it was Apple who decided to limit their latest iPad and iPad mini 4G LTE to certain carriers but not CSL and PCCW. I think it is extremely unfair to customers who bought the the latest iPad or iPad mini(from apple store but not from telecom company) presuming they can use the 4G LTE feature.

So it's Apple's fault that you did no basic research or made any effort to find out if your carrier supported the iPad?

I just bought a new Retina Display macbook pro, and I plugged in my iPod touch (4th gen) into the new computer, but it will not show up, even after I typed in the passcode. How do I get my iTouch to sync with my new computer without restoring my itouch?

Each time I create a new album in IPhoto, photos from another album or from photo stream are automatically dumped into the new album.. how do I create a blank album and then import photos from a flash drive into the new album?

just import the iPhoto
Surely you meant "just import the photo"? The Spell checker is dangerously creative !

My i phone 4 fell down and I can't connect to my provider.it also recharges itself within a few minutes and the back of the phone is really hot.what should i do?

my i phone 4 fell down and I can't connect to my provider.it also recharges itself within a few minutes and the back of the phone is really hot. I tried to send it to the technical support but they told my that the reparationcosts will be higher than the actual price of a new phone.is this possible?

Yes, it is entirely possible.
Although in most countries Apple offers an out of warranty replacement for a nominal fee. In the US it is $199 for the 4S and $149 for older generations of the iPhone. Depending on where you are, that may be an option.

Yes, if it is an 8G model. You will receive a refurbished one for that price.

Is it possible to connect an external drive to the time capsule that I could use to store and access my primary iTunes files?

I would like to move my music files to an external drive that my iMac iTunes could access wirelessly and I'm wondering if it is possible to do so through connecting a drive to my Time Capsule.

This can be done....but if you move your iTunes Media folder to the drive that is connected to the Time Capsule, you might first want to think about how you will backup these important files.
Time Machine cannot backup the files back to the Time Capsule, so you will need to use a commercial backup application like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper to copy the files back to the Time Capsule drive.
As long as you plan to add a hard drive, you might want to consider an alternate plan:
Connect a hard drive directly to your Mac using USB or FireWire and move the iTunes Media Library there. Then, Time Machine will back up both your Mac and the hard drive, so you have original copies on one drive and backups on another.
Whatever you decide, be sure to follow the correct instructions to move the iTunes Media Folder. You cannot simply drag and drop.

I don't know which Apple ID I used to register my Ipod Nano. I had to restore my Computer and now I can't connect my iPod to iTunes again. I have my serial number and ECID

Hi, I don't know which Apple ID I used to register my Ipod Nano. I had to restore my Computer and now I can't connect my iPod to iTunes again. I have my serial number and ECID. I'm using Windows, BTW, sorry!

Search your email for the word Logic (and set the search to All) and you should find the receipt (so long as you didn't delete it)
Other than that.. simply contact Apple directly and ask.. Make sure you have your transaction details ready for them as they will need it...
