Re: Flash Drive
Steve, I am using the vootoo drive it is a 512gb flashdrive with both a lightning and usb plug on it. I had to install the ydisk software to use it, but as soon as I plug the drive in the ydisk software detects it and loads the base information from the flashdrive. The software has a backup tab which allows you to backup both your contacts and photo library. The buttons are not clearly labeled as buttons but it is fairly obvious which the buttons are. When the backup is done, the software displays a complete message. Each time I backup my photos it just adds to the backup/myphotos folder. The software also provides a file browser for the flashdrive so you can put other files on the drive and access them from your iOS device. I am certain there must be a way to copy files from teh flashdrive onto the iOS device I just haven't tried to figure that out. I am no longer seeing the flashdrive on amazon unfortunately.

RE: Good USB flash drive to use with my iPhone?
There are several, they are all comparitively expensive because of the Lightning port and pretty much all require you to use an app to view or use the content on the USB drive. You may know that Apple is a bit different from Windows or Android, you can't just plug in a USB drive and access the files on it. If you are thinking of putting music on the USB drive then you can certainly do so but you will not be able to play said music in the native music app. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Conrad Bennett Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2018 2:30 PM To: Google Groups viphone <viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: Good USB flash drive to use with my iPhone?

OT: Help: Reading flash drive on Mac
I know this is off topic, but I really got a nasty surprise. Please help and forgive. On my braillenote on a flash drive I have 2 folders. One is called Books and the other is Lessons. When I put my flash drive in my Mac I used command-shift-C to get the list of drives. I found the flash drive, but when I opened it all there was for reading were numbers, not books and lessons. Please, please tell me what I did wrong. If they have to be copied and moved to read the files, where do I paste them. This is the first time I have tried to use a flash drive on my mac.

Apparently yes, but it is using USB 2.0 instead of the current 3.0 speed and for the price, some feel it should be using the latest technology especially since it is brand new.

RE: iStick: USB Flash Drive with Lightning for iPhone and iPad
I just read in a 9 to 5 Mac review that iStick uses its own ap to access the stick. You have to transfer files from apps like Pages using the open with another app feature. You can't send multiple files at one time. Then the question becomes, Is the iStick app Voice Over friendly? I would hate to pay the high prices to find out that it is not.

RE: iStick: USB Flash Drive with Lightning for iPhone and iPad
I don't think that is how these drives work. Yes, you can transfer pictures, videos, music and so on from your computer to the device, but as far as I know that data will only be available to the iStick or iXpand apps and has to be consumed so to speak with these apps. Of course we also don't know fi these apps are even accessible. I think it would be the other developers like Winston from Voice Dream who would have to program his app to maybe grab files from the iStick just like it is when you import an audio book from Dropbox.

Yes, I have and use the iStick. The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver.

Of course we also don't know fi these apps are even accessible.

Re: iXpand Flash Drive for iPhone and iPad
I agree with you. Even though this sounds nice I think that it is overpriced and not worth the money especially considering that it uses old technology.

Re: iXpand Flash Drive for iPhone and iPad
Holy crap! $120? That's nuts! My $40 MobileLite sans 64 GB SD card is way cheaper! I think the card only cost me $25 or so, so even there, the whole package was about $65 or thereabouts. Also, I feel that the MobileLite Wireless is a better buy not just because it's cheaper, but because up to three people can use it to stream totally different content to their devices. And I think this will work even if there's a mix of OS's accessing content. Thanks, Ari On 11/16/14, John Diakogeorgiou jdiakoge2...@gmail.com wrote: I agree with you.

Hi Andy, This drive has a Lightning port as well as a regular USB port. It uses the FAT32 file system and I don't see why USB 3.0 support For when you plug it into a PC or Mac is not possible. After all, they advertise it as a device you can use both ways and especially if you transfer large amounts of photos or videos the faster transfer speed would be useful. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andy Baracco Sent: Sunday, November 16, 2014 11:10 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: iXpand Flash Drive for iPhone and iPad This may be an issue of what protocol the iPhone supports as opposed to corner cutting on the part of Sandisk.

Re: Flash Drive for Pc Alternative option for the iPad for school?
You can get an adapter to go in the data port of an iPad, and that gives a usb port to plug in a pen drive. The iPad has enough power to power it too. they're not expensive. Otherwise, that is what icloud is for, though don't think you ahve the flexibility you get with your own backup methodology.

Hello all, My friend uses iPad especially for school that she got. In PC, we have always been taught to backup our documents or files on alternate device such as flash drive or as some people call it thumb drive. It is those little rectangular thingies u can insert in your Pc for backup. Well, my friend wants to restore her documents somewhere as a backup for safety reasons. What options does she have? What should I tell her? Thank u and I hope u know what I mean. Oh yeah, she is using iPad mini with the latest IOS for the iPad. Thanks for your time and assistance.

Flash Drive for Pc Alternative option for the iPad for school?
I would suggest using google drive if she has a google account (and if not, make one) or Dropbox. I personally use both and they both work well. Does your friend have a windows computer and use Microsoft office? If so, she can go to preferences (under general or tools), then save settings. Here, she can dictate that all of the Microsoft word/excel files will be automatically saved to the google drive or Dropbox syncing folder. I would also suggest changing the auto save time to happen every 1 minute, just in case the program crashes. This has saved my bacon many times this past school year. Also, if she uses google docs, she can pick up wherever she left off from any computer, ipad, smartphone, etc. currently, I have to use an app like smart office 2 to do that with .doc and other such files via my phone. I'm not sure if you can edit normal documents directly from the Dropbox app, since i mostly use it to store older files. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Flash Drive for Pc Alternative option for the iPad for school?
Two easy options are to sync with a desktop computer and move the documents to a folder, or use Dropbox, which will store documents in the cloud.. I believe she can also store documents in iCloud, but I have never done this, so others may be better suited for information. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

Flash Drive
I found this app on the Applevis site and it looked so very promising. However, I can't figure out how to do anything with it except copy from a dropbox folder to the phone. Can someone write me off list that uses this for WIFI transfers from their network? I want to understand what I'm missing.
