Will this device allow me to transfer video files from my iPhone 5S? I mainly am thinking of using it as a way to free up space on my iPhone.

Yes, you can use this device as a personal cloud that you carry with you. Just remember to limit its access by locking down the wi-fi with a password. It will work within 30 ft of the device you are accessing it with. Learning to movie files back and forth is not well explained in the instructions but there are very good videos on line for how to accomplish this (its much easier than it initially seems). Its used in my experience for the very same thing you are intending to use it for and it works very well. The better part is that if you have more than i-device and or laptops and desktops, you can share the data between them via this wi-fi device.

Yes it will, but the mobilelite app will not allow video , the best app is "files connect" but this cost £3.99 but that also gives the option of making any hard drive a network drive so making the mobile lite redundant , if I had known this I would not of brought the mobile lite, just the great "files connect" app which is free to download to any PC/mac to allow file sharing and making any hard drive connected useable anywhere in world . Hope this helps. Save your money for the app. Or best way is to get an apple time capsule that take work out of any setting up , just down load airport free app and it connects straight away , Yes it will, but the mobilelite app will not allow video , the best app is "files connect" but this cost £3.99 but that also gives the option of making any hard drive a network drive so making the mobile lite redundant , if I had known this I would not of brought the mobile lite, just the great "files connect" app which is free to download to any PC/mac to allow file sharing and making any hard drive connected useable anywhere in world .

The video doesn't actually 'transfer' anywhere. You need to connect to the device to see the video. The camera can be set up to 'push' images to an FTP server, or email them upon motion detection.If you actually wanted to view live video from this camera from the Internet, it would need to live on a public network and have its own IP. An alternate solution would be for the camera to live behind a firewall and use a NAT statement on the firewall to permit the HTTP port of the camera to be accessible from the firewall itself on some alternate port. (ie: http://ip.address.of.firewall:12345 ). It doesn't matter if you're using an iPhone, PC, android, etc. Anything with a web browser can hit the camera.

I believe that is correct. Something about the new "lightning" adapter for iphone 5 not transferring video (audio only). I don't have the special iphone cable JVC sells but I'm fairly certain that even with that cable, no video applications will work. There is mention on JVC's web page that they are working on a fix but the last time I checked, they still haven't released anything yet. It works fine with the iPhone 5 for everything else (bluetooth, music, etc.) through a standard apple lightning to usb cable. Hope that helps.

Nope. This device's only way to put files in is through a computer. Unless you can upload files using dropbox there is no way.

Yes, it does do video. I know you can send files via bluetooth, but I don't mess with the cloud so I've got nothing on that part.

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.

I do not have an iPhone 5s or 5c, have only used an ipod on here. However, we haven't used it in a while because we were having problems with it skipping songs or not even playing at all. So for now I wouldn't be able to recommend but you may want to see other reviews. Maybe its ok and we just got a defective one. Sorry to not be of much help...

It's been working in my S5 16g without issue for almost 2 months. Read Google tutorials on line on how to transfer video, picture, and other files to it and how to set storage to the disk. I'm no computer expert and I figured it out

It would depend on a number of factors. e.g. the format of the movie file, blue ray, mp4, oog, etc. It would also depend on the particular app. Does it support the files format? Or does it allow you to read from an external hard drive? I've plugged in a thumb drive into the unit being sold, and have been able to read/move files to and from the tablet. I've also been able to view some videos from the thumb drive. But I cannot say it would work for you for sure. It did for me.

There is no problem with the HD, in fact you are able to put all the pictures, music and videos possible according with the capacity. But when you try to connect the device wireless with your Ipad, Iphone or Android it only shows sometimes the music, maybe... never the videos. Thera are really serious issues with the software on the app that made me return the device and get a refund.

I'm sorry but I am not that "savvy" with this stuff and cannot give you an answer. I use this adapter to transfer files between my iphone and ipad.

So so, you can connect a mobile (IOS) devices in my case in two modes m , direct to the camera and through a wireless access point mode. You cannot download or view videos (gutted ) but can do with photos. I've not used it used it for social media sites and can't comment on that side.It is ok, but can be a pain switching between more than one devices and profile setup.Hope this helps.Polo

You can transfer photos from ipad mini to the USB stick. Not sure about video. Hope this help.

Good question, Clyde. I'd like to know as well. I think that it will work, but I'm also curious if anyone knows if if apple pages/numbers/keynote docs will work? They're not listed as supported file types, but I'm wondering if that's just in regards to viewing them within the kingston app, if you can still transfer the files back and forth through the app or through the iDevice browser or if it won't allow it at all?

Yes. You'll need this device if you want to transfer data from a flash card, another sd card, or a memory card too large to fit in the phone. I'm very glad I bought it, because it's so versatile and extremely easy to use. I back up my phone's data such as contacts an other documents onto a flash card, so it doesn't end up in a "cloud" for someone else to view.

I have only had success making this feature work on TV's with Component Video In capabilities. If you have the right inputs on your TV and still have no luck you might try undocking and redocking the device you are trying to stream the video from. I have only used my iPhone 4S on mine. Sometimes I have to undock and redock to make it work. If you are using an iPhone, you should see an indicator on the phone screen indicating that it is sending video to your TV... if you don't see this, try undocking and redocking. Also, some iPhone video apps aren't compatible.

If you can read the information on your card with another device, it should work. If nothing else, you should be able to archive the camcorder files on another device through this and then pick and choose which file you want to work with.
