Check out the gear I mention in this video:

So i have 32g ipad and my music files are taking up too much i can put them onto the external storage to free up space correct? I also use koala btw
Ok I get what you are saying in the video but I still have a issues and not sure how to get it to work. If you can help. Ok I a iPad mini 2. Operating system 12.4.7. And I have a leap frog system. That in order to use this device. I have to go leap frog online and downloaded ad the books ok. There’s no USB port on the iPad. Is there something I can get so I can connect my iPad through USB
or buy an android tablet 🧐
So is this increase my iPad space by means of pen drive?

(Our printer is kinda old that its not compatible for airprint)
Is there a way of removing sd reader safely or do you just pull it out?
will it support in ipad air (Model no-A1475)?
You need 3 things to get a pen drive running. 😂😂😂 Lame
Thanks it’s very helpful! Why does apple eco system making simple things complicated!😞😞😞
Hi Pete! I have an iPad Pro 12,9 second gen and have the exact same adapter as you. I am at the latest iPad OS software and have plenty of storage. I cleared the memory (with a memory app), I cleared all notifications and safari history. I restarted the iPad and followed your instructions step by step. When I connect the lighting power to the adapter, the charge goes intermittent as if you plug and unplug the power. Also that notification goes on and off just as the charge. On my iPhone X, it doesn’t even register that it’s plugged in to charge, so I used the wireless charger and nothing happens. The thumb drive does not appear in the folder. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
You kinda sound like another youtuber named Slapped ham
hey, I tried doing this with an ipad that is update to IOS 13.4 but it still says too much power. I tried on my phone and it worked so I'm confused
Do they expand storage?, say perhaps I have 32 gb and want 64 can I do this and will I be able to download as many games as I want until I fill up all of the hard drive?
I have an ipad 6th generation and I tried to use an lightning powered USB hub which works for about 2 minutes then get an message say a accessory not supported on this ipad I have got ios 13.3 what am I doing wrong
can a usb mouse + keybopard can be use at the same time?
Annoying process
What if I’ve updated the ios and connected to power but still not working 🤷🏻♀️
It doesn’t say about time on mine

One question – running iOS 13.3.1 but have never seen a desktop like yours on my iPad mini.
Looks like the Finder on my MacPro!
How do you get that view?
Thanks! …John
Appreciate this is the.older iPad but just wanted to point out the latest iPad Pro’s, with USB-C, will work fine without an external charger with USB sticks and Hard drives.

Yo Pete, thanks man….it’s because of you that I got a powered usb hub.
I finally need upload stuff to my iPad and my connecter/adapter doesn’t have power but
I’m covered…you saved me a lot of time. I love your channel
Constantly stuck on “preparing to import from iphone” then nothing , just stays at that message. ios 13 ipads cant read/import from iphones with ios 12 which is really lame of apple but not surprising as that company pulls every trick they can to get people to buy new devices even when iphones running ios 12 as there max level firmware update still work fine . Pathetically greedy and deceiving corporation.
Why dis dude sound like Happy Days?? 😂
No offense lol thx for the tutorial tho
How do I unplug my USB key without damaging it?
What case for your iPad are you using?
Are you using a app for this what is open on your iPad
What will happen of you connect a Flashdrive with a Virus to your iPad??
Not working for me
Any other way?
what app are you using to navigate your iPad/flash drive
Great video. What mobile battery do you recommend? Thanks.
You might as well just use a laptop instead of all that attachments.
You have no idea how helpful your video was. Thank you
Very informative. Not perfect but it works. I can now transfer my photo and video albums.
I watched YouTube videos on how to burn cd's without using a computer just with a external cd burner. I tried it doing the same but it didn't work, the apps they showed didn't even work. When I hit the burn button it kept saying incert a blank disk. So can a iPad burn cd's without using apps when you connect it to a external cd burner ???
Having just bought an iPad iOS for my daughter, this was one of the questions I had. This video has saved me a lot of hassle, thanks.
Mac OS Extended volumes should work too??? (HFS+) & why not Apple’s latest APFS?
good job done
pfff WHY does Apple devices not simply have SD-Slots and USB-Slots. I just don't get it. Because now it seems lo longer to be a software issue.
Does microsoft documents also work with this?
