Managing Photos with new iPad Air???

Hi,
I was looking to get some insight from experienced users on the best way manage photos with the new iPad Air. Oviously, im not too familiar with the subject as, i do not use any iPad and i am trying to set one up for someone else who recently purchased one.
So here is what i need to be able to do:
There are a bunch of pictures i need to upload into the iPad (more or less 15gig for the first batch).
Id like to be able to manage these pictures as in be able to delete, organize folders, etc.
Preferably also be able to export these photos, later on, as a backup in their respective folders as previously organized in the ipad.
Mainly, the ipad will be the main storage unit of the albums, as this person enjoys viewing them on daily basis. So i believe this rule out using itunes photos syncing. After searching for a while i believe there are multiple third party app which would be better for importing, organizing and exporting photos. Im just not quite sure which as i have not experience it yet.
*This has become quite a pain since im trying to find a way to minimize the usage of a PC or MAC, so the person would be able to manage their photos with the ipad and i believe it would be simple to transfer pictures taken from their iPhone.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Have a look at Photo Manager Pro.

TS3899 Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone.

Cannot send email with new iPad air. Works fine with old iPad and iPhone. I have deleted account and reinstalled.

Thanks. I got the problem fixed. Spent time with the Apple folks and was kicked up to a senior advisor. It seems the problem was with my internet provider - Tmie Warner. Remember I could use the old ipad and the iphone to send mail. I checked all the specifics between the three units. It seems that TW is changing over from the RR.com to TWC.com. Since the new ipad air was just set up, it fell under the new TWC mail specifics.

Any problems with new iPad Air 2?

I have an iPad 2 (2nd Generation) 512GB RAM w/32GB storage. Running out of storage room.
Thinking of getting the new iPad Air 2 128GB wifi
Before I buy one, any problems or issues with it? I hope the issues are only with iOS 8 and not the hardware.
iOS issues can be fixed with a new update.

Currently as of this post there is a random popping sound every so often, wifi shuts off sometimes and turns back on. The speaker vibrating isn't a defect but it's there because of how thin.

IWork/iLife Apps with New iPad Air

iWork/iLife apps are supposed to be free on a new iOS device. I bought and registered a new iPad Air and the Appstore wants to charge me for downloading them. How can I get these on my device without being charge?

I was under the impression they were separate apps. When you bought your iPad Air, you got the iOS versions, but if you want the MacOS versions, you will need to purchase them.
They were free when you purchased a new iOS/MacOS product, but the free software would most likely coincide with that.

Productivity apps supposed to be free with new ipad air

I purchased a new ipad air yesterday and tried to download imovie from the app store but but it shows as a 4.99 price tag. How do I get it for free as promised by apple? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your post, like others, I had the same issue as the OP. I tried the 'sign out and reset the iPad and sign back in' thing I had read about in other posts, but your suggestion got me the closest to fixing it. I'd like to add something to your suggestion to help some of us who are new to Apple products. Plus, I think they may have changed to selection name since your post as I couldn't find a selection labeled Optimized for iPad Air.
First off for those who are having a hard time getting to the app home after searching for these apps, (Hey, I can't be the only one.) Tap 'Cancel' on the top left corner of the search screen. Now from the home screen of the apps page scroll all the way to the bottom. On the bottom right, tap on the selection Apps made by Apple. There you will find the free apps.
Again, A.R.S.E.N.I.Y thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction!

Managing photos with iMac, iPad, iPhone using iPhoto

Help! Can anyone point me to how to gain some control over photos in this Apple environment, because my experience has been horrible so far.
As much as I love and have used Apple products since the mid-80's, to the same extent I detest the lack of understanding I have for controlling my photos across my devices. I will use the iPad as my foil, but it applies to the phone as well. I know how to search the web.
Where is a scheme described for simply managing photos? There seems no reason for many photos from my iPhoto library to be on my iPad. I have not opened the photos, nor explicitly placed them in photo stream.
I spent hours in iPhoto yesterday and deleted several thousand photos. Apparently, I only thought I deleted many if them, because they are still in my IPad and some are in iphoto.
Can I wipe out all the photos on the iOS devices, lock the devices so icloud can't put any back on until I wish, then allow me to select which I want to put on again, then start to trust PhotoStream?
Is there anyone with good information?
I really hate all the trial and error with this, and no satisfaction.
Last week I thought I sent some pictures of some people to PhotoStream to show when I went to visit them. Hours later, with iPad, wanting to show the Photos, none i wanted to were there, by my PhotoStream share had a lot of pictures I do not care about. WTH? I have great wi-Fi. Everything is connected. Fine demonstration that was!

What version fo iPhoto and system are you running:
If you're using Photo Stream in iPhoto on your iMac disengage Automatic Upload in the iPhoto/Photo Stream preference pane:
Now you will have to manually add photos to Photo Stream in iPhoto if you want them to be on your iPhone's Photo Stream.
You can remove photos in PS from iPhoto by selecting them and Control (right)-clicking and selecting Delete from Photo Stream:

Need help with new iPad Air not turning on

My new iPad screen is black when I tried to use it this morning. It charged all night. There was a 'ding' sound when I unplugged and plugged in so I believe it has power. Any advice? Thanks,

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Problems with new iPad Air

Applications close unexpectedly and static when i play music, what can do?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

New iPad Air won't sync with iTunes on Windows 8

Hello,
I have an iPad Air that will not sync with iTunes. That same machine however syncs with my original iPad and iPad 2 with no issues.
Only thing that happens when I connect the iPad Air to the PC is a tile/window pops up like it is looking for photos on the USB device?
I have tried disabling, uninstalling/reinstalling, updating the driver, all with no success. I even factory reset the iPad Air and didn't change the outcome.
I can tell you that the iPad Air is running the latest firmware, my iTunes is the latest version, and Windows 8.1 is up to date, as well as both other iDevices syncing error free.
Any insight anyone could provide on what I could be missing would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hello jennebb,

Managing photos with iPhoto in iPad

My target is to manage my photos with my iPad, iPhoto and iCloud without PC or Mac. Now I have noticed that their is quite many limitations: 1) iCloud backups only the camera roll (not other albums although I have created them by the old Photo apps?) 2) in iPhoto I can copy only one photo at the same time from the photo stream to the camera roll (and after that iPad copies automaticly the copied photos back to the photo stream) 3) in iPhoto I can't create a new album from the photos which locate in the photo stream (in the old Photo app this is possible). Could somebody give hints to me if there are some other possibilities to manage photos without PC or Mac?

iPhoto for iOS uses the photos and photo organization found in the Photos app. You might just have to go back to that app to accomplish those tasks it does well and iPhoto for iOS does not.

How do I sync all my photo stream photos from iCloud on my new iPad Air?

I just hooked up my new iPad Air and everything is running smoothly except for the fact that only my photos from October 2nd of this year and after are showing up in Photos and iPhoto.
New photos that I'm taking on my iPhone are showing up as well. It also appears that both my regular and Instragram photos are showing up, but only from October 2nd through today.

Photostream is streaming feature and only holds your photos for up to one month or 1000 pictures. That way when you get new device it works from the point of setup and with backlog of one month. There are other ways to get your pictures on, but it does not look like you did those.
