iPad File Sharing

This is a just a quick tip on how to use File Sharing on the iPad via iTunes.  "How do I share files from my iPad or to the iPad?" - I see this question asked a lot on Twitter and on the Apple.com support boards.

 

File Sharing:

  1. Connect your iPad to your Mac or Windows PC

  2. Open iTunes

  3. Select your iPad in the left panel

  4. Select Apps in the top menu

  5. Scroll down to the 'File Sharing' area

  6. Select your App

  7. Drag and drop your document or file (to or from)

  8. If you are dragging to the iPad, tap sync


 

You can share any type of file to the iPad, just remember not all applications will support all file types. A great example would be iMovie, you can easily import your videos to iMovie but the video file needs to be the correct file format or iMovie will not recognize it.
