I have a USB male cable from WD storage drive &amp; an iPad w/ 8 pin lightning to USB male cable. Can this transfer pics &amp; video files to storage drive?

No. I bought this with the idea of doing that. I wanted to transfer files with this item as a bridge between my iPad and my laptop. It does not work that way for me.

yes. works very well. lightning connection side (or the 30 pin adapter) allows connection to ipod or ipad and put files on the memory stick. then take the stick to the pc and connect to the usb to have full access to those same files. works both ways. excellent device.

That was my original intent but was not good for that. I got the USB and SD card adapter for my Samsung tablet and phone (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009VBCSVI/ref=oh_details_o07_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and it worked beautifully. My tablet did not have a USB port so I had to use the adapter to make the power plug into a USB port. For an external hard drive, as long as you have a USB port on your iPad you should be fine with the female-to-female adapter as shown here, if not you will need a USB adapter. Hope this helps.

NOT that I'm an expert in this area (I'm not), but I'm surprised your computer doesn't recognize it. Stupid question, but I'll ask it, anyway. Are you using a PC, or an Apple? It was a couple of months before I hooked up mine, but I think that, at the time that I bought it, it clearly stated that it was for an Apple, only. That stood out in my mind, for some reason. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. Anyway, I'd definitely get a hold of WD. They are very helpful and I don't think you would have a problem with them. Let me know how you made out.

I haven't stored games on it. But I assume u can since I have stored movies and all my pics on it. It's a wireless flash drive so I assume so. I love it since I have a ipad and now I can transfer stuff without plugging into my laptop. Really saved me when I was on a trip and was able to transfer my pics onto it.

Yes. The whole point is to use memory on the flash drive, and not the iPad. You do have to load an app to access the device, but it is small.

I don't know, I was using it to transfer photos and it didn't do that very well because of the atrocious file structure on Apple devices.

Use something like Dropbox to transfer the files instead of looking for a reader. The iPhone 5 series doesn't generate the power needed to drive this adaptor. It does work fine with an iPad mini and other iPads, but they can generate the power needed to drive the device.

Yes you can and also you can transfer photos from your Iphone to sd card or usb flash drive.You need to install the app "PWS Manager" and "File Manager for WG-C20", these apps are available in App Store and are free to download

Yes, you can transfer videos, music and other files from Iphone 4 directly to Photofast I-flash drive. Buy the flash drive with 32 pin connector (other end is the USB) to connect to the Iphone 4. Then transfer the necessary files from the phone to the flash drive. In addition, I suggest that you buy an Apple approved connector (one end is 32 pins and the other is 8 pins) to connect the flash drive to mini Ipad. When you connect the flash drive to mini ipad, the APP for it is automatically downloaded. The photofast drive works exactly like a regular flash drive with the Iphone as well as the Ipad. It is wonderful though on the expensive side. Yes, you can transfer videos, music and other files from Iphone 4 directly to Photofast I-flash drive.

Do you intend to connect the microscope to the iPad and see the output on the iPad? If so, I seriously doubt it would work but I could be wrong. This is intended to be used to charge an Apple device and not for video transfer. However, if there is a specific app that is designed to work with the microscope then it might do the trick. Sorry that I can't be more definitive.

It doesn't work WELL with much of anything. Avoid at all costs, and buy a WD MyBook Live Cloud Drive. I'm serious. This one--though it technically still works--is sitting unplugged in my closet. I had too much trouble with it. Frustrating as all get-out. But seriously, yeah, it probably works with 8.1. As well as it works with anything.

No it does not. Media can be on SD Drive or USB Stick and stream it to iPad. You do need to install MediaShair App to have access to the drives though.

This is NOT a general storage device. The Apple iOS will only acknowledge and upload &lt;one way&gt; certain file types (.jpg, etc for images and .mov, etc for video). That is all. It is not theddevice's limitation it is Apple's constraints.

Yes. Just dl the the file from the windows pc (via the USB), then plug the FlashDrive into the apple pc (via the USB), and upload the file. Easy-peasy.

You would need an adapter from USB to the standard iPad connector. It would be the same as the one for connecting cameras with USB cables.
