IPad and camera import

I'm having trouble importing video from a small HD video camera. It's called a Go pro hero HD..very popular with race cars.. other brand seem to transfer video just fine. My question is are there certain formats of video that will not mesh with my iPad?
So, I guess I need the approver formants that iPad handles.
Thanks

From the iPad tech specs:
H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
A good program for the Mac that should convert it to an iPad supported format is HandBrake.

Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced - and then re-syncing.
Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Uncheck all of the albums that you want to remove under the Sync Photos From heading
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you are using iTunes 11 and you can't see the sidebar go to View>Show Sidebar from the menu at the top.

IPad and Camera Kit

I plan on getting the Apple "camera kit" for the iPad, so that I can upload photos and video from a camera while traveling.
Apple says that you will be able to transfer photos AND video.
But I had a question.
I will have a Canon DSLR T2i(rebel) that shoots 1080p HD video as well as 720p as well as 640 x 480 video.
I am also thinking of getting the smaller FLIP camcorders or the Kodak Zi8. They both shoot HD video, but the flip transfers via usb and the kodak has removable SD cards.
Basically, does anybody know if you'll be able to transfer 1080p video clips to the ipad? Or at least 720p HD clips?
Thanks for any and all help or advice concerning this question.
Also...not a question, but I hope Apple releases a "lite" version of iLife(imovie/iweb/garageband) for the ipad, like they did with iwork.
Peace out.

I can't comment on 1080p but 720p videos from my Nikon D90 import and play on the iPad without a problem. RAW files and jpgs also import fine.
I also have a flip video ultra HD that will connect to the iPad and I can copy the files to the iPad but I cannot view them on the iPad. So with regards to the Flip video camera, the iPad can only be used as a backup device.
The weird thing is when I connect the flip video to the iPad, in the import screen, iphoto does show thumbnails for the individual clips. Perhaps, the flip video embeds a jpg thumbnail for sorting, preview, etc. or the ipads can view that file format but apple has decided not to include it in the OS.

The new Ipad and camera connection kit with Sony A65 RAW

Hi,
I recently purchased the "new ipad" with camera connection kit. I'm shooting photos in RAW format with Sony A65 and I have succesfully transferred them into my Ipad. The problem is that none of the applications such as Snapseed, Photoforge2, etc. will display the full 24 megapixel image from the RAW file and will instead show small preview.
It is indicated in support pages of these applications that there should be support for IOS Raw engine supported RAW files with full size. Can someone indicate me what RAW formats are supported by IOS 5.1 and whether support for Sony RAW files will be added.
The same problem persists with 16 megapixel images from Sony A55.
Thank you in advance.

Thank you, David, but actually your answer is not helpful. As I explained in my opening message, I am interested in buying and using an i-Pad while on a trip in Spain, where I will not have access to a computer, other than, perhaps, one at the Apple Store where I might buy the i-Pad.

IMovie on iPad and Camera can't upload my movie to YouTube

I just made a video on iMovie and I've tried many times, but can't upload tot o YouTube. I then saved the video to the Photos app on my iPad and tried to upload it there, but it didn't work there either. I am guessing the problem is with the YouTube app, but I am not sure. everything is recently updated on my iPad. I did notice that on the YouTube app the icon with the three horizontal lines is not avilable for me to select and there is no way I can upload my video using the YouTube app. What should I do to fix this problem??

Me too,
If I try to upload or save a video to camera rol the progress bar stay on 0% ( the problem isn't with the YouTube app, because I can upload videos with the YouTube app )
I had this problem also with iOS 7 ( progress bar stay on 20% ), so it isn't a bug in iOS 8.
iPad Air (1) ,iOS 8.1.3, Belgium. (hopefully isn't my English too bad)

I recently uploaded some pics and videos from an ipad and a camera. I put them all on Iphoto and backed them up in my personal folder. I then trimmed one of the videos and dragged and dropped that into the master folder(pictures). Its now gone!! HELP!?!?!

I rencently added all my photo's from my Ipad and Camera. There were photos and videos on both. The import was done through Iphoto and then transfered to my backup in my pictures folder. I then took one of my videos and trimmed it and then addded that trimmed version to my back up(pictures)albumn. It asked If i wanted to replace existing photo or cancel and I hit replace. Now the file plays great on Iphoto but I am unable to share it through any form(facebook, Imessage etc) and in my back up(pictures) it says the file in only 87kb. I dragged and dropped it from Iphoto to the desk top along with another important video, when I hit get info on both of them one of them is a full sized video(50mb or whatever) and the other one(the one I am trying to recover) is only the 87kb. I want this full file avaiable to me how can I get it back?? it is already deleted off the camera??? please please help me.

Garret,
is your movie in your backup folder a Quicktime movie? Then probably only have the Quicktime wrapper in your backup folder, but not the referenced media in the file fork of the movie. If you see the full quality movie in iPhoto in QuickTime player, don't drag it from the browser to the Desktop, but use "File > Reveal in Finder > Original File" to show the movie in your iPhoto Library. Select the Movie when it is revealed and ctrl-click it to open it in Quicktime Player.
Export it from Quicktime Player with "Export to" and share it to iTunes. This way it will be converted to a .mp4 movie that embeds the missing resources.
You can drag the converted movie from iTunes to the Desktop or share it using to Media Browser to other applications.
Regards
Léonie

IPad and iPhone photos/folders disappear in Aperture 3

Hello all,
As my subject line states I'm having problems with my photos/videos and their folders disappearing in Aperture 3. I can import them without problem via Aperture's built in import feature. I created a folder called iPhone and one called iPad and then import into the appropriate folders.
My problem occurs when I close Aperture. When I reopen my folders and all the projects/photos are gone. This has happened to me to numerous times. It does not occur with the other folders/projects that I have in my library.
I am using the latest aperture update and OSX 10.6.8. All of my IOS are up to date as well and not jail broken. With regards to the photos/videos on my ipad they are mostly ones transferred to my ipad via the camera connection kit.
Thanks for any help or insight you can give.

These are user-to-user forums, so I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post (posting it on public forums can lead to spam).
Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing.
In terms of editing them, on iOS 6 I get an Edit button at the top left of the screen which gives me some edit options at the bottom of the screen : rotate, enhance, red-eye, crop. The edited version will then be saved to the Camera Roll album, the original photo is left untouched. There are also third-party photo editing apps e.g. Photoshop Express (which is free with some in-app options) - they will also save the edited version to the Camera Roll album, the original photo will be left unaltered.

How do I download my Camera to the ipad and then to iphoto on my G5?

Lets say that I'm on vacation and the memory card on my camera is full.
How do I download my camera to the ipad2?
And then when I get home how do I transfer those same photos to iphoto on my G5 running Leopard?
Thanks!

Thanks,
And I just read this on the camera adaptor link in the apple store, which answers part 2 of my question.:
With the iPad Camera Connection Kit, it's incredibly easy to download photos and videos from your digital camera to your iPad so you can view them on the gorgeous iPad display and share them with family and friends.
The kit includes two connectors, each with a different interface:
The Camera Connector features a USB interface. Just plug it into the dock connector port on your iPad, then attach your digital camera or iPhone using a USB cable (not included). iPhone 3G is not supported.
Use the SD Card Reader to import photos and videos directly from your camera's SD card. Connect it to your iPad, then insert your digital camera's SD card into the slot.
After you make the connection, your iPad automatically opens the Photos app, which lets you choose which photos and videos to import, then organizes them into albums. When you sync iPad to your PC or Mac, the photos and videos on your iPad are added to your computer's photo library.
iPad and the Camera Connection Kit support standard photo formats, including JPEG and RAW, along with SD and HD video formats, including H.264 and MPEG-4.

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files.   What am I missing here?

I write both JPG and DNG files in the camera.   Camera is a Leica Monochrom.   Photo, unlike iPhoto, seems to ignore DNG files and only imports JPG files when both are present on the SD card. JPGs are used for quick proofing on an iPad.    DNG RAW files are edited on a Mac Pro (2013).    Other than deleting the JPGs before importing images from the SD card, is there any way to force Photo to select and import only the DNG images?

Thanks Larry,
I did see the J stacked in the lower left of the thumbnails but couldn't figure out how to get to whatever is below it.   How do you select R?
I use an iPad to do quick proofs of my images.   A JPG is good enough for a proof ( dust on the lens, composition, blown out image, etc. ).   The iPad is JPG friendly and can load the images quickly.    Serious editing takes place on my Mac Pro with the DNG files.   I use the same workflow with the the Leica M 240.   iPhoto has been a quick and easy importer to the Mac capturing all of the metadata in the EXIF sidecar file ( location, date, time, camera settings, lens type). A quick scan in iPhoto for the "keepers" let's me export those worth editing to Lightroom/Bridge/Photoshop. I typically shoot 50 images from three locations in a normal day. If I'm lucky I'll get 1 worth real work to add to the portfolio.

How do i import movies from my iPad (movie cam) into final cut

I have imoported movies from the ipad into Iphoto. I couldn't get any videos to show up in the import browser from Ipad into Aperture. trying to import files directly from iphoto to final cut brings up an error message. exporting the videos from iphoto into another folder got them into final cut but the video doesnt play, the timeline just moves along a still image of the first frame of the video.

It's a bit confusing whether you are using iphoto or aperture as you mention both.
Are the movies still on your iPad? The best way to import would be to do it directly using FCPX. Attach the iPad, fire up FCPX, and import from camera (command-I). You should then see your clips that exist on the iPad and should be able to import them to an Event.

answered in your other thread LR 4 suddenly no longer recognizes files.

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto. I get the following error message:
Some import operations were not performed.
The following files were not imported because they could not be read [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
Thumbnails show up. LR just will not import them.
Any idea what is going wrong?

If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name

I have numbers on my ipad and after the latest update I can't open a spreadsheet in it, a very important spreadsheet. I have rebooted a number of times but this does not seem to have fixed it can someone advise what I can do??

I have an ipad and have just downloaded the lastest update, now I have a very very important spreadsheet that will not open!!!! other spreadsheets open fine but for some just this one will not open. I have rebooted the ipad and tried re-syncing but to no avail, can anyone HELP?????

I had the same problem. I created an iCloud account and backed up my iPad to iCloud. I then went to www.iCloud.com, signed-in and then I was able to download my spread sheet data. At least I have my data.

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive. One of my cameras does not use an SD card. How can I do this?

Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad? I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive. One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line. Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory. Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive? Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad? Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips. Internet and WiFi are not available. Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad). I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC. I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips. Is this possible and how would I do it? I'd appreciate any guidance.

No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.
