Can we use that Usb port and connect to pc while charging please tell i really need to use usb on pc while charging

I love someone that continues to serve even when folks throw shade. Thanks for teaching me so much.

This is exactly the video I was looking for! Thanks for having taken the time to make it for iPad Pro 10.5 inch users!

Brilliantly done. I carry extra power bank with me anyway so it’s good considering power banks are slim so not much of a hassle

Been watching your videos for a little bit, your honesty with your viewers is great! Just earned yourself a new sub.

Thank you. That is all I needed to know.

Yo can u put an extra USB port machine in ? (So you don’t only have 1 usb, but multiples)

“Is that not correct? That is correct.” Awesome.

This has helped me so much, thanks! The best video with the step by step, and explained in detail.

adding power does it charge also the ipad? Great vid and thanks!

If you buy a lightning to HDMI adapter, can you hook this up to a monitor or is that only with the USB-C models?

Finally the video I searched for my entire day

Thanks man, your vids are so beneficial

I missed which "power" you connect through the USB-C port for this to work

Very nice job with this review, thank you so much! All I needed to do was attach my usb-3 thumb drive to the iPad Pro tablet... you've shown lots of great options. All the best!

@Will H. Tech Review Did you get it to work? I’m thinking about buying a USB-C hub (because they have more options), but I can’t figure out if adapters restrict what you would be able to transfer (or anything else). Did it work like a normal USB-A cable when using an adapter?

Thanks man you helped a lot 👍🏻

After two weeks of wracking my brain with my lightning cable ! guess I’ll have to get one!

I have this device. I’ve used this device. I have one of the SanDisk SSD’s just like the one you have. I realize that this is a down and dirty quick video about if it works but I would like to just offer some experiences I had with these items. I wasted tremendous amounts of time, energy, and yes patience trying to archive data from several devices, iPads and iPhones which were FULL of photos and videos of children and grandchildren from the last few years. After some research I found this Apple device and purchased it along with a couple of storage products. As mentioned before the SanDisk SSD and a SanDisk USB thumb drive. Both of these storage devices had only out of the box files on them. As in this video I connected the Lightning connector of the device to the iPad or iPhone then the charging connector to the larger of Apple’s charging blocks (not the little square one that comes with the phones, but the larger one that comes with the iPads). At this point I should be ready to DUPLICATE the procedures on this video. I was able to do these things with some limited success. Here is what I found. After proving what was done on this video to be able to be performed with “A” file (photo, video) or two I decided the device and procedures I was using worked and continued on with this belief until EVIL reared its ugly head. I CREATED thru the Files program a folder on the storage device and transferred 10 files into the “SUB” folder I created - - still no problems. Giddy at the fact that this was so streamlined and effortless and I would soon be able to have backups of all my precious files that eat up all of my iPhone, iPad, and YES even my MacPro that I have been putting off doing for way too long I started to move more and more files in this manner. By this I mean I went from moving files 10 at a time to 20 the 50 then 100. Everything seemed “to good to be true” as far as getting done quickly and easily. It just took longer times to transfer depending on the amount of files and size of files being transferred, for instance if a group of files contained quite a few longer videos then it took longer. Nothing wrong or unexpected with this fact just that once I got to some SERIOUS amounts of data to be transferred the iPhone or iPad would sleep and this usually ended up in disaster see below. THEN disaster strikes. For reasons I still do not understand I got an error message (sorry forgot what it was) and was forced to disconnect everything and begin again. Keep in mind that I had “ALREADY TRANSFERRED” I thought HUNDREDS of photos and videos. To my SHOCK however when everything died and was disconnected and then reconnected I went to the Files App and located my device again expecting to pick up my backing up activities where I had left off before the lock up of the process. To my HORROR NONE of the FOLDERS I created were to be found on the storage device. Fearing the worst I connected the storage device to my MacPro and tried to find the folders I created there. I found files with the names of the folders I had created BUT these files WERE NOT folders, had odd file extensions in the name, and contained ZERO BYTES of information. I got the hair brained idea of creating the folder structure on the storage device from the MacPro after deleting all of the garbage which I found there to see if there was any way the Files App just didn’t have the umph to do this function. I recreated folders for “My iPhone, my wife’s iPhone, my iPad, my wife’s iPad etc and started the process over again. On the plus side I have been able to back up most all of my files into these folders onto the thumb drive which is where I started the process and then later disconnect everything and plug the thumb drive into any of these devices and access all of my backed up photos and videos, however with the SanDisk SSD I’d had little to no luck doing what was done on the video as I always get an error message stating no support or not enough power to use it. 2 further notes 1) if the iPhone or iPad slept the current group of photos and videos would NOT finish and would have to be redone 2) Not sure if the raw out of the box storage devices need some type of FORMATTING to work seamlessly with iPhones and iPads My OPINION: If iPhones and iPads are doing something they SHOULD NOT SLEEP If devices NEED formatting they should say so AND finally IF I selected AAALLLLLLLL of my files to transfer and start that process I should be able to have it complete regardless of the amount of time it takes until it is completed

I was gonna say try the Apple adapter. Apple had us covered for once. You can also use a powered usb splitter to use a keyboard and mouse, as well as connect midi devices, your camera or usb headphones as long as it’s powered. It’s a little bit extra but that’s why the iPad Pro has usb c the 7.5 Watt power out takes care of the lack of power from the device like in this video.

It does work with the iPad Pro 10.5 2017 model, had to send mine back to ebay

Please, could you test the Sandisk USB 3.0 iXpand flash drive with iPadOS? It has a lighting connection and I wounder if it would be recognized by the iPad Air 3, as it has a low power consumption. I know it works with its own software (iXpand). But it would be much better if it would work directly in the native Files app. Thanks!

hi, great video. Is there any lightning cable to HDMI and USB ? since i often do presentation and wants to do it from the ipad and use the pointer from the usb. thanks before. shout ot from indonesia

Nice video. What type of power source are you using?

Nice video man. Cheer up. But i just curious is it gonna work if you using this accessory connect with USB type C Hub that have a PD port to connect with power supply while using the USB 3.0 port that with the Hub ? For example, the brand UGreen USB type C Hub (usb c male)

Have you tried plugging a USB Hub / Card reader so you can plug an SD card and an extreme SSD drive at the same time to move files between the two external storage devices?

Great. I like very much that you correct yourself and that you work out questions a lot of non techie people are asking--and that you are willing to try some lesser known accessories (for instance the Procase from several weeks ago that works great for me for travel)

Thank you, currently using a 10.5 and it works just fine for my needs, dont see a reason to up grade yet. However, was concerned about being able to use external drives....this helps a lot. Thank you from Montana

If you want to use mechanical drives (HDD) you’ll need to use “Powered USB hubs”. These are USB hubs that has their own power supply. :) Try to search for this in Amazon. The brand U-Green has one.

If the 120Hz refresh rate or the stereo speakers matters to you, go for the iPad Pro 10.5 otherwise go for the Air 3. It has a later chip, thus, will get software updates for much longer.

Another question, do you plug the external drive, mine has a usb c directly to the lightning or I need a usb A adaptor for it? Thank you

Ok watched the video and you plugged the device first, then plug the external drive USB C?

Hey, thanks for the great video! Will the Lightning to USB adapter from apple also work for connecting my ssd to my Ipad pro 1st generation? It is a little cheaper and it doesn't have the extra charging option but it is USB and nog USB 3, will that work too? Thanks a lot!

Not sure if it works for the 1st generation. That's been a long time ago.

Sir, can the pdf , word , zip or other types of files also be transferred to / from the external storage devices into the iPad using this device?

Apart from SSD’s you showed. Do WD portable external hard drives work as well?

The lightning port and the USB-C port look alot alike. Just by looking, it seems like you would directly plug the USB-C cable from your drive in the "little hole" that seems the same as the cable. I know in the video you specify it's for the power source, and that it's a lighting connection, but that may still be confusing for a beginner. It would be more helpful if you specify that you actually need TWO adapters: the actual white adapter you are reviewing, and then one to go from USB-C to USB-3 (or as a rookie would describe: the regular USB we are used to seeing). I saw you do this and figured it out, but a beginner would not have caught on to that right away. Apologies, if someone else already called this out in a previous comment.

Thanks for your video. What I have learned thus far is that your power source needs to be the power cube that came with the iPad (the bigger cube that you connect your lighting cable to) using an iPhone cube won't supply enough power. Oddly enough, some older usb flash drives will work without a power source. For me, it was a 4GB Transcend and a 8GB Lexar. My 32GB SanDisk Cruzer Blade requires power. I can only assume that this has something to do with the actual capacity of the usb flash drives. Im still trying to find a way to use a portable power bank/brick to make all of this work. Maybe you have some ideas? I have tried the two that I own and they do not supply enough power. Again, my guess here would be that the portable power bank/brick needs to have the same output as the iPad power cube.

Thanks for doing the hard work for me. I theorized that was the issue.

Great. Do you known if it’s works exactly the same with new iPad 8th gen?

Would you mind giving some information on the black plastic stand that you are using to hold your iPad?

So, I did a lot of testing with my iPad Pro 10.5 first gen. Bought a SD card reader only on amazon. This works fine all the time. I also had a Belkin dual lightning adapter. The SD card ready works through this also. I can charge and use the SD card reader at the same time. I bought the Apple lightning to USB 3.0 adapter. It works fine with SSD and not HHD. My USB 2.0 flash drives work without having power running through it. I tried to use my USB flash drive 3.0 128gb in my car having the power connected to a cigarette lighter adapter and there wasn’t enough power. So just a heads up that to use SSD and/or USB 3.0 flash drives, you have to use enough power coming in. Not all power adapters supply enough amps to run it. (Probably need the 2.1amps and not just the 1 amp)... that would be a good test for you to do.

Do you know if on iPad 2018 an usb-c to USB adapter would work? I mean, without the extra power from an extern battery? (Because the one I might get only has the USB port) I'd thank so much your help with that 🙏🙏

Does this work with LaCie rugged external mini?

Could some one tell if it's strictly necessary to use the lightning to USB adapter to make it work? Or the new lightning drives (the ones with the lightning tip instead of Usb) connected direct to the lightning Port of iPad 7th gen would work?

What cable did u use as the power source? I don’t have anything that fits into that small port, not even from other devices.

Ok, so that seems perfect for me but I need an answer. With this full line of adapters, is there a limit of 100 mah to power up what we want to plug? And also, can you connect a usb type c hub? Anyone who answers this comment is a hero, I’ve benn looking for this for days

Is nice video thank you 👍🏻

Does it work with the first iPad Pro 2017 model? Software version 13.1.3. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just subscribed because of your 1st sentence in this video ! I think a usb device that was externally powered would work too, as long as there is driver support or app support.

Can you try with lightning to usb type c cable to transfer SSD hardrive data without power source?

Can you watch movies purchased through iTunes from an SSD?

So at 3:30 you use what is that? a type C to USB A adapter? (Only a type A port on the lighting adapter) Do those come with the SSD drives that have a type C output? Or is that an additional peripheral needed...

You have to have a powered adapter - say you have a USB to lightning adapter, you want the one that has a lightning port on it too - then you can plug a lightning cord to a wall adapter (or into a power bank) and then into the adapter. This will 'power' the adapter/ipad combo. If you hunt a bit on amazon, you can find USB to lightning that has 2 USB ports and a card slot - or HDMI to lightning but the MAIN thing is it has to have that lightning port ON the gizmo so you can power it. 2018 and up have that C port so isn't that just so easy... :(
