how to transfer photos from apple computer to usb stick

Presumably at some point Adobe will make things easier and allow image import direct from the card (and export direct to an attached drive) - that does not seem to be currently possible.

not copy and store on the ipad) - but I've found this to be a very slow process. If all you want to do is backup the images you can copy from card to drive when both are attached to the ipad using a hub (i.e. You use the term 'hard drive' - the attached drive would have to be powered by ipad or hub - I've only tested with USB flash drives. I've found step F to be a bit buggy and sometimes get errors during the copy. G) Optionally delete the contents of your staging directory once the files have been imported to Lightroom and backed up to the external drive Here is what you can do for a raw only workflow using the files app:Ī) attach your card to the iPad via a card readerī) open the files app and copy from card to a directory on the iPadĭ) optionally edit images in Lightroom and export back to the directory on your iPadĮ) replace the card reader with your drive (or attach both at the same time with a USB hub)į) copy images (either the originals and/or exports from Lightroom) from internal directory to the attached drive The best way depends on whether you shoot raw, jpg or raw plus jpg. Yes this is possible with iPadOS - there are two different ways of doing it - either using the files app or the photos app. I know there are cloud options but I have limited Apple and Adobe cloud storage for this. We are talking about copying over large numbers of photos all at once. I want to have a dedicated 500GB Samsung drive that can act as a backup of all my photos while I'm traveling.

Most talk about reading and working on files residing on a flash drive and saving them on the drive.

I would rather not travel with a Macbook Pro and instead be able to import my photos from SD cards and into an iPad Pro then save them to a larger flash drive as a backup. Is this (or will this) be possible with an iPad Pro/USB port? Now or with the new iPadOS? My typical travel workflow (with a Macbook) is:Ģ-Export from SD card into Mac and work with LR.ģ-Make a backup of the photos on an attached hard drive. I can't seem to get a straight answer for this.
