Usb adapter for ipad

Hello, I want to be able to transfer files from my USB 2 Thumbdrive to a friends iPad. Is this possible?
Is there a iPad to usb adapter? I am not clear on this. I looked it up and I see that there is a lightning to 30 pin adapter. Don't know what to do with that.
anyone.?
thanks

You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

USB Adapter for iPad 2

WHat adapter do I need on my iPad 2 to read a driver's license card reader. The Camera Connection Kit doesn't work. It says "device not supported." When I tried it anyway it produce mostly garbage on the application page.
THanks.

Not convinced you will be able to get a usb attached scanner to work.
You can used the camera as a scanner.

My apple usb adapter for iPad dose not work any more

I use USB adapter before , but can not work any more

Can you try it with someone else's adaptor to make sure that is where the fault lies?
Make sure it is connected directly to the wall socket and not through a two way adaptor.
Move both ends of the cable slight to make sure there is not a loose connection.

USB Adapter for iPad 3

Can i conntect the ipad 3 thru the camera connection kit with an external harddrive? My idea is to upload pics from my digicam to ipad and from ipad to external harddrive. Is this possible? What options do I have?
Thanks!

There are some wireless external hard drives that can be used with the iPad.
The Kingston Wi-Drive, which costs $50 for the 16 Gigabyte, and then $30 more for every 16 gigs more. It works by you turning it on and then accessing the files on it from an app that you download on your iDevice. You can access music, movies, and other stuff. No connections or anything, it works like a WiFi connection, you connect to it from the setting on the iPad under wireless networks.
Then there is the Seagate GoFlex, which some would recommend over the Wi-Drive. But this one costs $199 and had 500 Gigabytes of storage. It works the sameway as the Kingston: no wires, runs over its wireless connection. You can actually fit up to 300 HD movies on it.
Another option:

Why hasn't apple created its own USB or USB adapter for their products.? Since an iPhone or iPad make traveling and doing school work or on the job work, why not create a USB to make transferring information easier too.?

In some folks' version of the world, you have plenty of ways. YOu have the aforementioned services, you have iCloud, all you need is an internet connection and you're good to go. And that works perfectly...if you always have the internet.
If you want more non-internet dependant ways, then the best way to let Apple know is to send them feedback. They don't monitor or respond to this forum (Beyond removing rule breaking posts) but they do at least log feedback. However, the lack of a file manager will always be an obstacle. There are some apps out there that have at least a pseudo file manager - as in the ability to move documents into multiple other apps. I have Readdle Docs which I can use to download and move things around with, but again, back to the internet or wireless.

Probably not normally, Apple has removed some of the hidden features of the USB dongle via a software update for iPad. One of those features was playing host to hard drives, keyboards, etc.

Help re adapter for ipad 4

Where can I get a lightning 8 pin OTG to USB adapter for my ipad 4 please?

Yeah - you can't import your photos directly to a USB. You must import them to a computer or use a cloud service like Dropbox or SugarSync to store them.
Your iCloud backup will keep your photos, but once you delete them from the phone, the subsenquent backups that you do won't have them. So it is not a permanent storage. Use one of the cloud services if you don't have a computer.

USB adapter for old imac

I know this should be in the crt imac forum, but i need a response soon.
I'm looking for a wireless usb adapter for a crt imac. This mac has the capability to use an airport card, but none is installed.
Are there any usb adapters that are mac compatible? If not, is there anywhere i can find an old airport card (not airport extreme).

Hi John,
You want one of these:

It connects to the ethernet port. I have the 'B' version on an old 450DV+, and it works well.

Shock from AV Adapter for iPad

Ive had a mild electric shock from apples AV Adapter for iPad, and can see it has developed a split in the rubber casing, which has blown out at one end. Ive tried to talk to apple about this, but had no real responce so far. Ive had it for about 15 months now, so I dont supose they will replace it even though it started acting up and overheating some months back, but was told thats normal. I rreally think a so called high quality product (priced £35) should last longer and more importantly be safe. Whatever happens I wont be using it again. Has anyone else had any problems with this item ?

no but there are component and composite versions which does work with 3gs

Is there a firewire to HDMI adapter for IPAD 4?

It's called the "Lightning" connector. Here is the adapter you need:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter
The Lightning Digital AV Adapter mirrors exactly what you see on your device so that everyone in the room can enjoy it on your widescreen TV, video projection screen, or other HDMI-compatible display. The Lightning Digital AV Adapter also supports video out for watching movies, TV shows, and more.
You can also stream wirelessly using AirPlay but that requires Apple TV. Streaming music or other audio requires an AirPort Express or compatible device.

Apple Crew ,
I bought 2 Apple Digital AV Adapters “HDMI” (30 pin Digital TV Adapter "for IPad 2" - Lightning Digital AV Adapter "for IPad mini") three days ago.
I’ve used my iPad 2 to connect with Samsung Smart TV via 30 pin Digital AV Adapter “HDMI”,
The iPad 2 instantly connect to the television, but the problem is that the TV displayed screen (mirror) isn't full screen. I tried with every setting on my iPad and also on the television but still no luck and the screen still appear in small size.
I’ve used my iPad mini to connect with Samsung Smart TV via Lightning Digital AV Adapter “HDMI”,
but also the same problem
I tried connecting with other televisions but the same result
It only works with iPhone with Full Screen!!!!!
I need to solve this issue as I paid almost 95 $ and for the first time I didn’t get the service I need from apple!! (Which I didn’t expect)
