Problem getting photos into an iPad Air

I plug my previously working Apple Camera Adapter (holding SD card containing photos) into an 30-pin/lightning adapter and this assembly into my iPad Air (model MD786B/A) - but photos now don't show up to be transferred.  So how do I get photos into the iPad from an SD card ?

1. Was the SD card used in a camera and is that how the photos got onto the card?
2. Did you previously use the 30 pin SD Card Adapter with the 30 pin to Lightning Adapter successfully?
The SD card readers (either 30 pin to SD Card adapter or the Lighting to SD Card Camera Adapter) are designed to be used with SD cards that have been formatted and used in a camera. The iPad expect to see a specific organization of the photos. First there must be a folder named DCIM. In side that folder photos must have specific naming structure. IMG_xxxx.jpg is correct where xxxx refers to a four digit number.

  • Problem getting apps on new iPad air

    I purchased a new iPad Air and some of the apps from my iPad 3rd gen do not show in my purchased apps nor are they listed in the app store any longer.  The apps still work on my iPad 3rd gen.  How do I get them to my new iPad air?

    I am running the most up to date iOS 7.0.4 on all my mobile devises.  The apps still work on the iPad 3rd gen with iOS 7.0.4 installed.  But if I go to the app store on either of these devises, the apps do not appear, even under my purchased apps on the older iPad.  Not sure how that can happen when the app still works on that devise.  I am really at a loss.

  • Problem getting photo library off iPad

    I wiped my hard drive. I backed up my iPhoto library to a friend's computer. But when I put it back on mine it came over wonky. I used iphoto library manager and extracted the photos but only got some of the pictures. How can I take the photo library from my iPad and put it on my Macbook Pro? All the photos were synced prior to the hard drive wipe.
    *Not talking about the camera roll photos.

    There are iPad apps such as Simple Transfer that should be able to copy them off the iPad to your computer via your wifi network - but as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any photos that you copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer

    Hi norlowski,
    Do you already have the Kindle app downloaded to an iPhone or another iPad? Do you have "Automatic Downloads" turned on under Settings>iTunes & App Store for Apps on your iPad?
    You might want to try touching and holding the Kindle App option in your Purchased list, and when it highlights, let go, and it will go to a a detail page for the app with another "Open" option on it. See if it will open from there.
    If you do have Automatic Downloads turned on on the iPad, turn it off, and then go back to purchased to see if the Kindle is still showing as "Open".
    Post back with results!
    Cheers,

    Hello, suffianr78. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you have the sync photos preference selected in iTunes and photos are still not syncing, I would recommend processing the steps in the article below.

  • I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    Try here:
    iTunes: Unable to sync photos
    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

  • Get photos off an iPad without a PC

    Hello all
    Firstly, sorry if this has already been talked about on the forums
    I did search for an answer to my question but to no avail
    If there are threads already discussing this, can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
    My question -
    How the heck do you get photos OFF an iPad (mine is iPad 2) without a computer?
    Mac/PC doesn't matter, irrelevant to the question
    The reason I ask is because I'm a photographer and I'd like to use my iPad out in the field
    I've found it to be a super-cool device to show clients portfolio work
    But I'd also like to start using it to do basic post-work and editing on-the-job
    For the editing part, there are heaps of apps in the app store that are just great
    But once I'm done, I'd love to be able to give a digital copy of the photos to the client before I leave
    Any ideas?
    I'm very happy with the iPad as a professional tool for this industry
    And even if what I'm asking can't be done, I'll still keep using it
    Just wondering if there's any ideas I haven't come across yet
    Many thanks!

    yes, soon after I posted, I went into the photo gallery to have a play
    found that if you click the share button you can select multiple and email them, indeed to yourself
    or in my case, to the client
    here's my thinking...
    for jobs where a really special emotional response is needed, i'm better off going home and packaging a dvd and posting to the client, such is the case for weddings etc
    for time-critical jobs, like insurance and particularly real estate, emailing to the client would be perfect
    one question though - when emailing, are the photos sent at their original quality?

  • Problem getting photos

    I insert my card reader into the USB port.  The path for the photos is into my C: drive.  The pictures are successfully shown in Organizer and in fact are in the C: drive.  Now comes the problem;  I click on each photo in Organizer, and Elements 6 cannot locate the file.  When I did a metadata on the picture it shows a different path, into my H: drive which is my external hard drive where my photos are backed up.  As you can imagine, I will be happy to hear the solution so I thank you in advance.

    I took a screen shot placed  it into wordpad but was not able to copy and paste into this email.
    What appears is as you have below with the exception of the first line "C:>volumeid c: 66de-00da" and the last line "Volume ID for drive c: updated to 66de-00da"
    On the command line I enter the path and  "volumeid h:  f828-50df  g: 595b-27b7"  and I get the response as I've just described.
    sigh.............

    When you type the command:
    volumeid h: F828-50DF
    what exactly is the response?  It should look similar to:
    C:>volumeid c: 66de-00da
    VolumeID V2.01 - Set disk volume id

    Sysinternals - http://www.sysinternals.com
    Volume ID for drive c: updated to 66de-00da
    If it doesn't, either type in the exact response or post a screen shot.
    I forgot to mention that in c:\windows the file appears as volumeid and not volumeid.exe.
    That's because your Windows Explorer is configured (by default) to not show the extensions (e.g. ".exe").  It shouldn't matter.
    Next I have been attempting to run the psedbtool which is still on my desktop.
    You need to use Windows Explorer to navigate to the folder c:\psedbtool and then double-click "run.bat" (which may show up as simply "run").

    Who can shed some light on my ongoing connection problem.
    After upgrading my iPad Air with IOS 7.06, I could no longer connect to the internet.
    I have 2 MacBooks Air, 1 ipad mini and one iPhone 4S running on the same network, and they are all connected to the net and function well.
    So I cleaned up the ipad completely, installed the latest firmware and reinstalled my apps : no connection.
    I tried all things of resets and forgets. No result.
    I have been fondling with my Airport Extreme 5 , but that did not help much.
    This morning I went to a neighbor , hooked my ipad air on his network, typed the password and the thing all worked fine.
    I have tried to connect the ipad air as an ethernet client, but that did not work. „Not enough power“ was the statement
    Ideas anyone ?

    Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work.  Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
    Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
    Et voila.... everything is back in working order,

  • Getting photos from my ipad back to my Mac that are NOT in camera roll.

    Our hard drive failed and my back up files were corrupt so I lost my entire digital life including my iphotos.  I had set up my ipad to sync several folders from  iphoto to my ipad when I did an itunes sync.  All of these photos and folders  are currently viewable on my ipad.  When I plug the ipad in to sync, i can only transfer the photos that are currently in the camera roll (355 photos)  There are 5000 photos on the ipad via the folders I previously synced. 
    How do I get these photo back to my mac?  Is it even possible?
    Image caputer doesn't work because it only looks at the photos in the camera roll (ie taken by the ipad).
    To sum up:  Basically starting with a new mac and trying to get photos from the ipad back on the mac.
    Thank You!

    If you have iPhoto on your iPad, you can save the photos back to the camera roll: you can select complete albums or events at once to do that.
    Save photos to the Camera Roll on your iOS device
    Tap a photo, album, or event and tap > Camera Roll.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save:
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap up to 100 photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    Tap Done.
    To use your photo in another app, open the app and select the Camera Roll album.
    For other sharing options from iPhoto see:  Ways to share photos
    But a third-party app, like Terence Devlin suggested wll probably quicker and safer, since you have 5000 photos to transfer.
    my back up files were corrupt
    Have you tried data recovery software on your backup drive? Software like
    Disk Drill: http://www.cleverfiles.com/
       might still be able to restore jpeg files at least.
