Photos on my iPad how to save? (1 Viewer)

[colyboy]

Seem to have loads of photos on my iPad mini. Which is the best way to save them?
Can I use one of those memory stick things and if so how do I load them?

I ordered three of these yesterday for delivery today. It's seems like a perfect solution.

You could save them on photobucket or dropbox ( and probably many others )

A little trick I do. Make a new 'images' tab in your email provider and email images to yourself. When they arrive drag the email to 'images'

Dont forget to name the batch in subject as you will be able to search for them later.

One of the cloud services.

There's nothing wrong with Apple's own iCloud photo sharing apart from the free storage space is a little low.

Google Drive is also good and give you 15gb.

Dropbox integrates fully with Apple products and you can have multiple free accounts if you need them.

It's a solution, not sure it's a perfect one. I wouldn't trust any physical device, flash drive or hard drive, as my only means of back up. If it fails, and they do occasionally, there's not a lot you can do about it and your data will be gone.

I was at my Dads yesterday he has loads of photos (of grand baby) on his iPad which he emails to himself and then transfers to his laptop (but it was taking time and I keep having to explain to him how to do it) but he needed a quick solution and he said couldn't he just have something that plugged into the iPad and then he could plug in the laptop. I didn't know these even existed until yesterday but at that price I thought it's worth a shot. Mike suggested a cloud but seriously Dad would not cope with it!

Agree , I have my photos in three different clouds, havnt got loads of photos but I have google drive, iCloud and the windows one , don't know what it's called, I only have them because different devices I have had at different times all came with their cloud and I just went along with them, now if I take a photo with one it's automatically on the others, apart from that I also have a Sony camera that works on wifi, so uploading from that to either device ends up with them on them all fantastic what happens now a days , also I might add this is all free

Once a cloud is set up , it does it all itself .

There are quite a few file manager apps, you can then connect to your network or just another PC and transfer them. Trying to load photos on Google drive or Dropbox takes forever especially if you are traveling with slow connections
We value our photos so boss loads them from camera to crapPad for viewing and I also load them onto my laptop and we copy them to our server when we get home.

If you have iTunes on a computer just set it up and then when the iPad is plugged into the computer via the apple lead it will automatically sink the photos on the iPad back to the host computer.

The latest iPhones and Mac books are a doddle as they have "airdrop" so you just select the photos on the iPhone and then as long as they are both on the same WiFi network you select the other device and they all hop over 200 photos in less than a minute.

There's nothing wrong with flash drives, everyone uses them. All I really meant was that it would be advisable to have back ups elsewhere rather than relying 100% on just the flash drive.

I go through iTunes too but I do like to print them off too. You can't beat looking through an album.
