Trying to Save Files From Apple iPad to USB

When I try to save my mp3 files from my iPad, I hook a USB camera adapter up to it and plug a USB external drive into the adapter. I have an Apple 🍎 iPad. It’s not easy trying to save my files. When I do, I discover that some of the files have disappeared out of my folders although the iPad may still recognize that the files are there. Some of the mp3 files will show 0.00. If I try to play an episode of my podcast titled iPad, it will play another episode instead titled computer. Things are very crazy. Then I have to go back and re-save my files again to the USB.

The next thing I have tried to do to save my files is simply compress and save my files as a zip file and email them to my computer. Then I can transfer them to my USB from the computer. Files can build up and take up space. Apple makes two copies of a file. One copy to your files app and another copy to your iCloud. When you run out of iCloud storage, Apple wants you to pay by the month for more storage. Your audio editor might save your files as MP4. You may need to convert them to mp3. That is more files taking up space, and you are left with so many copies. The best thing to do is make a final copy and erase all of the rest.

Apple Store Should Be a Share Button

You see newspapers, books, websites, and blogs in the digital world. You know about Apps, bookmarks, and buttons. I think the Apple Store would be a great idea for a share button to either share projects or sell a product. If you have a newspaper, for example, that you would like to sell digitally, it would be nice to share your link from another site to the Apple preview.

Upgrading and Throwing Away What's Good

On the newer Mac computers, power pc applications do not work anymore. It's a shame that you have to throw away a software that can still be used because of the changes of a new computer. Then you have to buy a new software and a few years later you have to do it again. Just because a software is made new doesn't mean that you are going to like it the way you did your old one. So you never really own anything. You may have it and still cannot use it. I wouldn't be surprise if somebody looses customers. I'm thinking about not buying a particular software because I'm tired of updating. Some people like the updates and some people don't. I'm tired of throwing away my good software just because it's out of date. What a waste of money, and money doesn't grow on trees.
