Ipad mini to flash drive

How do you connect an ipad mini to flash drive or card reader

You can use SOME usb drives to move photo or video file. Emphasis on some. I once had 14 laying around and only got half of them to work. There was no consistent size or brand.
and like stated above, only for photos and videos, only if they follow a a strict naming convention. you can't transfer any other type of files.

Does the ipad 2 support flash driver ??

Hi am wondering does the ipad 2 support flash driver ??? i purchased an adapter for that purpose
if yes so how can i use it ? i mean how can i view my music ,photo and else in my flash driver via ipad 2 ?

Any discussion of jailbreaking an iPad on this forum is against forum rules. If you want to take the chance of bricking your iPad and negating your warranty with Apple, that's your choice. But you're on own and won't get ANY support from us users who would never think of jailbreaking our devices.

Move your excess photos to a cloud service like Dropbox or save them on a computer (which can put them on a flash drive).
You won't be able to do this on the iPad.

If you have the iPad connected to the PC and think that you can simply copy the photos to the drive via the iPad without importing them to the computer first, you can't. Import them to the PC them copy them to the device.

You can do it with a wireless flash drive. An ordinary flash drive will not work.

Why can't a mac ipad use a flash drive or cd burner

Please. let me know why ipad doesn't have ability yo use a flash drive or CD burner.

The iPad doesn't have a file manager - like Finder or 'my computer' that allows the use of such devices.
It likely will never support any sort of optical drive - heck within the next few years I'm wiling to bet cd readers/burners go the way of the floppy drive (likely as soon as the record and video industry goes the way of distribution via USB key). But there are some apps and wireless flash drives that work with iPads - they have an app that takes the place of a file manager.
Look for sandisk wireelss flash drive, to just name one. I have no experience with them but there are a couple of users here that have them and recommend it a lot.

How to transfer files from ipad to usb flash drive

Hi Everyone,
How can I transfer docs stored on my Ipad to a USB flash drive or external hard drive? Thank you.
Donnie

You can't do it directly, you will need to copy them to a computer first 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., whatever the app that you using supports. The iPad's camera connection kit which has a USB connection only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, you can't copy any content off the iPad with it.

My PC does not recognize ipad mini as a drive

When I connect my ipad mini to my PC with the provided USB, my PC does not recognize my ipad mini as a hard drive. Under devices on my PC the ipad mini is identified as "Apple Mobile Device". The driver on my PC is "Apple mobile device USB driver". It states that it is working properly and there are no updates for the driver. How can I have my PC recognize the ipad mini as a hard drive?

You can't. It cannot be used as a disk drive. It is accessible through iTunes, only.

If I look at these pricing comaprisons, I really have great difficulties in understanding your pricing politics.
The iPad Mini models above have exactly the same built technical features ... the only difference is ... the memory.
I mean, you could also offer a built-in SD card slot, where I could at least store more of my movies, photos, music etc. for *less*.
Right? or Wrong?

There are some other options for additional storage for somewhat less cost. Get a wireless external hard drive that can be used with the iPad.

Can i use a pendrive with the ipad mini 2 and access the files in the pendrive

can i use a pendrive with the ipad mini 2 and access the files in the pendrive

I've literally had a 50/50 success rate with drives. But even if you get it to work, all you'll be able to access are photos or videos that follow a very strict naming convention. You cannot access documents or music, and you cannot write anything off the iPad onto a flash drive.
If you want to access photos or videos, you'll get more reliable results with an SD card than fighting with a USB drive.

USB flash drive not recognized by computer. Have tried all options of which I can think.

Okay. I have a Patriot S-Mini 32GB flash drive that my Windows 8.1 HP Slimline 400-434 is not recognizing. I believe it recognized it once, and has refused to do so since. My laptop (Windows 7 Toshiba) recognizes it just fine.
All other USB devices function perfectly on this computer. USB mouse/keyboard/USB Hub/Apple iPhone cable.
1. I have tried unplugging all other USB devices before trying this one. FAIL
2. I have gone to Device Management and the USB drive does not appear in the list. FAIL
3. I have uninstalled the USB Root Hubs and restarted the computer. FAIL
4. I have tried plugging the USB drive into the rear ports that plug directly into the motherboard. FAIL
5. I have updated the drivers, and have been unable to find a BIOS update as the link on the HP website downloads and says that it is incompatible for my computer. FAIL
...so what the bloody gorram heck do I do now?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Okay, and in the most ridiculous way I have ever solved a technical problem...
The USB flash cannot be inserted ALL the way into the port. It has to be inserted slowly, so that the contacts line up.
I figured this out by trying to connect it into my USB hub and noticing that the red indicator light was going on and off as I inserted the USB drive, flickering on as I inserted it and then off once it was all the way in.
Weird. But hey. It works now.
