Funny that Apple hides the truth from consumers. Nobody expects the iPad to be so incompatible when they buy it

This is my initial review since I just got the ipad and I'm hoping to update it when I've had it longer kzread.infoUgkxUGaHtKW8MwCql2fPyIm9-ftTqSMzKFFA . I purchased one that was listed as "acceptable condition" and was a little worried about what it would look like. However, I am pleased with its condition. The back has some scuffs and a small dent near the logo. There are a few tiny marks at the bottom of the front of the ipad but the condition of the screen is perfect. There are no scratches or anything. I was able to set it up, use it, and it charges fine. I'm hoping it continues to work well for me. So far it was worth the purchase. Also shipping was fast. The item came one day earlier than expected

Fabulous tutorial. Thank you!

Very helpful. My Mac is at Apple Store Service dept and now I can continue to do things on the Mac using my Mac backup drive remotely and temporarily.

Warning ⚠ External SSD in IPAD 🔥 10,002 viewsNov 7, 2021

Thanks very much

Thanks for the viedo, Could you please clarify whether it is possible to install games app inside external flash drive in ipad mini.

Hi, may I know if HDD portable hardisk can use this doogle? With the doogle having powered PD port can it have enough power to use the HDD?

I'd love to use an ipad pro while traveling just to offload/backup my footage (cfast cards to 2 ssd's). Can you "select all"? Because there are tons of files directly on the top directory of my cfast cards. And can you copy the footage on two drives simultaneously? Thx!

Hi, nice informative video. I have a peculiar problem connecting SSDs to my iPad Pro 3rd Gen 12.9 in. I have two SSDs, both Sandisk, but one of them is the Extreme Pro version 1TB, while the other is the Extreme version 2TB. I use a Honeywell adaptor with a PD port that says 85 watts, to which I connect the original 20W power adaptor, while the SSD goes into the USB C (SS) port of the Honeywell adaptor, one by one though. The Extreme Pro 1TB connects perfectly and pretty much quickly, while the Extreme 2TB just doesn't show up in the Files app. The OS is 16.5, just updated yesterday. Any suggestion would help.

What dongle device are you using that is powered by house/wall power?

Does this work for transferring music to your iPad as well or just photos & videos?

Thank you and very helpful! However, I am unable to copy and paste from icloud drive into external drive. The other way around I can do. Is there anything else I am suppose to do to enable this action?

Is there any way to determine used / available space on an SSD drive? Does not seem to be a feature if iOS or iPadOS.

Hi how would I connect the sadisk sdd to a 9th gen ipad out in the county side any help would be appreciated

I have a Sandisk e61 2tb and it’s not recognizable on the iPad Pro. I can feel it get warm but i suppose the cannot support the power necessary for ssd

Any advice?

And despite my 2021 M1 iPad Pro 12.9" recognizing the drive (and its designated "label") within the "Files" App as soon as the drive is plugged in; it still wont see any files or directories.

Hey I am not able to copy from ipad to pendrive. But i m able to transfer from pendrive to ipad. How do I fix it.

Thanks for the very clear run down. One question I have (that I may have missed the answer to) is whether the hub/dongle you’re using will run without external power (on iPad power only) to do file transfer. I’m a wildlife photographer and can be in the field away from power for days at a time. I can plug into a power bank in a pinch. But it’s often more workable if I can just run the hub directly on iPad power. Any help much appreciated! Cheers

@jeradhilltech

In that instance a hub would allow you to charge and transfer files at the same time. Of course if you are using the Magic Keyboard, it has a charging port that you can use while the USB-C port connects to an external drive or memory card.

Just to be clear - with no power bank, the hub will still allow file transfer using only iPad bus power? Sorry if I’m being obtuse. : ) Thanks again 👍

How do you format Samsung ssd for iPad pro

Jered, I have an iPad Pro 12.9 4th Gen running IOS17.4.1. It was a gift from a friend who wasn’t using it. Yesterday my main HP i9 laptop failed as it won’t charge. I know it’s not the battery and I suspect it’s something in the charging circuit that will need to be serviced. I removed the 500GB SSD from the HP and put it into a USB-C enclosure and plugged into the iPad. I do not see it in the iPad’s Files tab. The iPad does not recognize it. Since I have a multi-port dongle, I plugged the SSD into the dongle then plugged it into the iPad.Still nothing even though I know the SSD enclosure is getting power as I see the light on the enclosure and the wireless USB transmitter for my wireless mouse is working. Plus the USB-C cord from my phone charger plugged into the dongle is charging my iPad (but the same cord plugged into the port on my Magic Keyboard does not charge the iPad… very strange). I really need to be able to at least access my files on the iPad Pro so I can work while I get my HP laptop serviced. I know my Apple friends use their iPad Pros with the Magic Keyboard as a laptop substitute which is what I want to be able to do but can’t. Based on what I’ve described and your greater Apple experience than mine, what should I be doing? I can’t believe that I’m the only person experiencing this. I found your video helpful (I never knew there was the extra USB-C port on the Magic Keyboard) but I am at my wits end dealing with this. Can you help me? My EMA is fmc2900R@gmail if you can communicate with me, that would be greatly appreciated as well as posting a solution here for everyone to see. Is my problem related to a power issue? Is that what I am missing, why the SSD in the enclosure not being recognized?

I attached an external hard drive to my iPad. The drive that had files on it were accessible from my iPad. The drive itself says read only so I could not copy a file from my iPad. I also had an external drive that has no files on it. I was not able to copy anything to it because it also says read only. Is this a format issue? Do you know how I can change this. I need this to copy from iPad to external drive. I also have an SSD drive. I bought one of the adapters from your link. Will I have the same issue of read only?

When disconnecting a drive, does it not have to be unmounted first? I just ordered an iPad Pro primarily for this feature. Looking forward to it arriving!

Hopefully you've got it figured out by now since this question was 4 months ago, but no you don't need to unmount. Ive used regular and micro SD cards, an old Toshiba 1tb hard drive as well as regular flash drives. I connect all of those with a UNI dongle. I've never had issues with connecting or disconnecting any of those... No data corruption with just closing the files folder and unplugging whatever data saver device I have connected. Good luck 👍👍
