I have copied photo's to a folder on the iPad. How can I view these foto's?

I have copied some files from an USB memory card to an iPad. I did this by first copying the foto's and movies to my computer. Then i connected the iPad to my USB port, and copied the foto's and movies to a folder on the iPad. I copied them to the folder containing some foto's we made with the iPad. On the iPad we can see the foto's we made with the iPad, but not the foto's I copied. How can i make the foto's and movies visible on the iPad.
Since I don't own an iPad myself, I do not want to install any software on my computer to manage an iPad. I am using a computer with Linux 12.04.

I know you need iTunes tosynchorinize your iPad, and i know ther is a connection kit (i searched internet before posting this question).
The point is:
We are on vacation. the iPad is my fathers. We have here only his iPad and my laptop. We wanted to put foto's we made with a digital camera foto's on the iPad, so i connected the iPad to my laptop, and was able to copy the foto's to the iPad. So they are on the iPad, but they cannot be viewed. Since I do not want to instll software on my laptop I do not need my self, and we see no point in buyin a connection kit for one time use, it would be great if you could just copy foto's to the iPad and then view them.
I would appreciate it very much if someone could tell me how to do this. I am not used to working with tablets.so I am used to thinking "PC wise": youo copy files to a location on your computer and then you use a program to open those files. I know it works differently on an iPad, but it woul be great if this was one option that also would be available.

  • HT1209 My Itunes Library and iPhone have fallen out of sync on music over the yearsare - how can I compare my itunes library with my Iphone  to see what songs are missing from my library so I can then bring my Library up to date

    My Itunes Library and iPhone have fallen out of sync on music over the yearsare - how can I compare my itunes library with my Iphone  to see what songs are missing from my library so I can then bring my Library up to date

    Hello Solid Buck,
    Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing.  It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone. 
    In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone.  I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
    Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.

  • HT4436 I have a laptop Mac and an IPad, and would like to transfer pictures, videos, etc from the ipad to the Mac but not from the Mac to the IPad, how can I set up the iCloud in both devises to do so?

    I have a laptop Mac and an Ipad, and would like to transfer pictures, videos, etc from the ipad to the Mac but not from the Mac to the Ipad, how can I set up the iCloud in both devises to do so?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your best method would be to connect via USB and transfer that way, since videos are not transferred using photostream.
    However you can stop photos on your mac being added to photostream in the iPhoto preferences > photostream by unchecking the automatic upload box.

  • I want to transfer pictures from my photo stream to another folder on the ipad.  help

    I cannot for the life of me figure out how to transfer certain photos from my photostream to a specific folder on the ipad.  Probaby very simple but...

    Thanks for the information but shortly after I asked this question I did indeed figure it out.  You must go to the Album/Folder you want to send the pics to.  Then tap the Edit button in the upper right hand corner.  Then tap the Add button in the same corner.  Go to the stream and select those pics you want and then done and Wah-Lah.  Thanks for teh reply.

    Der to my pc.any pics that are in my camera roll are fine to transfer back to my pc.whenever I connect my ipad2 to my pc using the USB it will only let me transfer back pics from the camera roll.do I need another app to transfer none camera roll pics?also would I be able to use a private folder app so if I can't delete or transfer the pics I could keep them private on the iPad.thanks

    Try manually managing the phone and rather than synchronising, drag and drop the songs on to the phone.

  • HT3702 I have 5 identical charges from itunes on my bank card - how can I get these unauthorized charges removed?

    I have 5 identical charges on my bankcard from apples itunes for $21.84 - I made no purchases??   How do I get these removed?

    You've checked the purchase history on your account to see what app(s) they are from ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases. And you haven't got any auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098 ?
    If you haven't made them, and nobody else has access to your account or devices and may have made them, then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • HT1222 I have the iPad 2, can I update to IOS6 ??? if so how so I so that?

    Can I update my iPad 2

    You can.  If you are already on iOS 5+ then you should have a Settings > General > Software Update on it for direct update.  If you are on iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes (you can also update via your computer if you are on iOS 5+).
    To update via your computer, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off it to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well 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 - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Updating to iOS 6 will remove the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

  • Hello i accidentally synced all my photos from Iphoto and they doubled, i removed them all eventually to re-import them again, but i have no camera folder anymore and i have a folder called "From Mac" how can i turn it back to normal?

    hello i accidentally synced all my photos from Iphoto and they doubled, i removed them all eventually to re-import them again, but i have no camera folder anymore and i have a folder called "From Mac" how can i turn it back to normal?

    That is normal for photos synced from a computer to a phone using iTunes. Synced photos were never placed in the Camera Roll. Additionally since iOS 8 there is no Camera Roll: http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/09/19/goodbye-camera-roll-where-to-find-your -photos-in-ios-8

  • I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    How many pictures (or how many bytes) are we talking?  Now that the pictures are imported one way to cross users is to use a removable drive (although large volumes of files preclude this).
    The other is to login as the user where the pictures are, then copy them into the public drop box of the user where you want the picture.
    The arrow is showing (in ths example) copy files from the Pictures folder for my user to the guest user accounts public dropbox.  When you do this you may have to authenticate and you won't be able to see the results of the copy until you log in as the other user.
    All users are in the folder "/Users/"
