Travelling iPad workflow - quality and backup.

I was wondering if anyone could help clarify a couple of points I have about using Lightroom in my workflow whilst travelling.
I'm traveling and will be away from my main desktop for around 8-9 months I have a canon 700d, camera connection kit and an iPad mini. I'd like to upload my photos from my memory card to my iPad and then drop them in to Adobe Lightroom to do a first round of editing to lessen the mountain of work I'll have when I eventually get home.
My concerns are over quality, i'm not shooting in RAW but the highest .jpg quality my camera will allow. Will I loose anything as the image goes from Camera to iPad Photos to Lightroom to Adobe Cloud Storage?
My other question is after having uploaded and synced all my changes with the Creative Cloud can I then delete the images locally off my iPad? Or will they then be removed from Creative Cloud too? This would not only help with saving space on the iPad but I could also wipe my SD cards as I go.
Thanks to to anyone who can help!

I've not used it personally but I would check first that the originals from camera roll are correctly sync'd before deleting it.
Here is a similar thread relating to iPhone which seems to indicate it's possible but I would suggest you carry out a small test yourself before traveling.

  • Ipad reset itself and backup is corrupt

    My ipad 3 completely reset itself earlier today. when it powered back on it acted like it was fresh out of the box.
    I have tried to restore from my itunes backup, but am getting a message that the backup is corrupt or not compatible.  The backup is encrypted.
    I therefore appear to have lost all my goodreader and pages files...
    Any suggestions?

    There's a method of recovering pictures and videos watch the tutorial below.

  • I am traveling to India, north and south, with my ipad 2, G-3. It is activated by AT and T. How do I use it in India? Do I need to purchase a sim card there and if so what kind? Would they be available in the Delhi airport or where else in central Delhi?

    Also in order not to pay a fortune for the service is it better to acquire if needed a SIM card only once there?
    Check with your carrier about roaming charges.  They are usually prohibitive.  Best to get a local SIM.

  • I am extremely upset. I purchased my iPad in SA and I am traveling in Greece. When I want to make use of the free apps, I get a message that the app is not available in the SA store. What is the point of having an iPad if you cannot use it worldwide?

    I am extremely upset. I purchased my iPad in SA and now I am in Greece. I cannot download free apps as I get a message that the apps are not available in the SA store and only in US stores. When I change to the US store the same thing happens. What is the point of having an iPad if I cannot use it worldwide??? I feel that I wasted my money purchasing it as I specifically purchased it to use when I travel. How can I get access to all the available apps and why are they restricted.

    You can use your iPad worldwide. However, each AppleID is tied to
    a specific country's store. To use the AppStore in any country, you
    must be in that country and have a credit/debit card issued by a financial
    institution in that country with a verified billing address in that country.
    It is the developer's choice which AppStores he makes his app available
    from, and some countries prohibit certain apps.
    To make a purchase from the US store (including downloading a free app
    available in the US store), you must be in the US and have card issued
    in the US with verified billing address in the US.
    You can use your purchases from the SA store worldwide, but you
    cannot make purchases in other than the SA store unless you meet
    the aforesaid conditions.

  • IPad switches on and off after iOS update   cannot backup   no previous backups

    Hi,
    I would really appreciate some advice on this problem.
    My parents updated their iPad, and apparently it got stuck for hours, after which they switched the iPad off.
    From then on, the iPad keeps turning itself on and off, mostly showing the Apple logo, and sometimes the 'apps screen', but only lasting for at most 2 minutes before switching itself off again.
    The unfortunate thing is there is no backup on iTunes. I tried connecting the iPad to iTunes, and backing up, which happens for some time, but then got the following errors:
    1. iTunes cannot back up because backup is corrupt (checked other threads - there are actually no backups on the computer to be deleted);
    or
    2. iPad shuts down, causing the backup to stop. iPad turns back on itself, and backup restarts, but shuts down again after some time.
    I understand we can potentially restore the iPad to factory settings, but that means losing all the data on the iPad. Would like to know if anyone has ideas how to fix this issue, or at least save a backup?
    Thank you.

    I don't think this will work because from everything that you have stated, I believe that the iOS is corrupt and will need to be restored but did you reboot the iPad? You just never know....
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    You can't backup the device unless it is operational. It just will not work.

  • HT1766 When I was trying to backup my iPad 1 onto iTunes on my PC before I updated to the newest version of IOS, I synced my iPad with iTunes and clicked "Back Up Now" it said "iTunes could not back up the iPad because the back up session failed." what do

    I tried it several more times afterwards and it said the same thing. Previously when I was updating my iPod touch to the latest version of IOS I made the mistake of not backing it up before, and lost all my music, books, and apps I had on there, etc. I didn't want to make that same mistake with my iPad, but like I said previously; it's not even letting me back it up, therefore I'm not going to update yet so I don't lose all my data, but if I don't update I can't update a lot of apps on my iPad, and such and overall my iPad just won't be as functional until I update it. So bottom-line, why isn't my iPad backing up, and what can I do to make it back up sucessfuly? Thanks in advance. :)

    There are a couple of things that you can try.
    1. Quit iTunes, restart or reboot your iPad, restart your computer and then try again.
    2. Delete any old backups that you have in iTunes and then try again.
    Try no. 1 and see what happens.

  • I have installed the latest version of iOS in my ipad but forgot to backup the content, what should i do!!! I don't want my media and other data erased, how can i find back all the data in my ipad? I haven't restore ipad yet, so any others way can be use?

    Once you are in Recovery Mode, it's too late to do any backup. I am afraid you are going to lose your data.

  • HT201365 My iPad is locked and has this message "this iPad hasn't been backed up. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to wi fi". What should I do to continue using it please?

    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

  • HT4946 I want to sync my iPad with an older backup, not the old created when I plug mt device in.  Following a problem with my iPad I have lost all my data from a game app and I am trying to retrieve it

    Following a problem with my IPad and restoring it, I have lost the data in one of my game Apps ... I can see in ITunes/ pref my iPad back ups and want to try to sync with an older back up to get the data back.  So how can I sync with an oldera back up?

    In that same window - the one where you see your backups - click on the box at the bottom that say -Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads form syncing automatically. Then click OK and quit iTunes.
    Connect your iPad to the computer and launch iTunes. Right click on the iPad name on the left side under the devices heading and select - Restore from backup. A window will pop up from which you can select any of the backups that you have for the iPad. Select the backup that you want to restore from and then go agreed and restore the iPad. Sync with iTunes when you are done.
    Remember that when you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup to the iPad. You cannot selectively restore content. It is all or none.

  • Just got an iPad mini 3 and have not reset my iPad mini 3; is that why the photos from iCloud backup are not showing up in the new iPad?

    Sorry, don't know what you are asking. You have an old iPad Mini 3 and a new iPad Mini 3?  How did you set up the new iPad? Did you restore it from a backup of the old iPad? What photos are you not seeing?

  • What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material.

    What is the best charging cable for the iPad Air (that is not made by Apple)? I need a long cable (over 6ft or more). I also need the cable to be of high quality and the cord part of the cable to be made of strong material. Apple does not make one this long. Is there a cable out there that is sturdy like this and is safe to use?

    yes, but I'm trying to use my iPad to type notes (using pages) and I have the smart case which I use as a stand. I need a cable long enough to fit through the back of my desk and the charging brick for the iPad won't fit behind the desk. I have to put it on the floor and then the apple cables aren't long enough to reach.

  • I don't have space on iPhone and iPad anymore.. So I bought 10GB on iCloud and backup both electronics. So what I wanna know is can I delete my apps and pics in order to get more space on my devices

    I don't have space on my iPhone and iPad anymore.. So I bought 10GB on iCloud and backup both devices. So what I wanna know is can I delete my apps and pics in order to get more space on my devices?

    You can delete apps (which will also delete their content), but they will only be redownloadable whilst they remain in your country's store - none of your iTunes downloads (apps, music, ibooks etc) use any of your iCloud storage, iCloud is for your backups (e.g. app's content, camera roll photos, messages, homescreen layout).
    To delete an app, press and hold any of the apps and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'
    You can delete photos from your iPad, but if you want them back then you should copy them to your computer first.

    You can also copy your downloads (apps, music, films etc) to your computer's iTunes by connecting your iPad and/or iPhone to it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.

  • TS3683 I get the error message "backup of this ipad could not be saved to this computer" when trying to backup by ipad.  Why and how do I fix?

    I am trying to backup my ipad to my computer.  It goes through the process, but then tells me a backup could not be saved on my computer.  I have a previous backup on here, so it worked at one time a few months ago.  I've got the latest version of iTunes and even uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes.  Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

    Did you try what was suggested on that page i.e. disconnecting the iPad from your computer and turning the iPad off (press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red 'slide to power off' appears on screen and slide that) and then back on ?
    And if the backup doesn't work after that then try a soft-reset instead of the off and on : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
