When you connect it to the Mac iPhoto should fire up. Jim -- Twitter:@GreyAreaUK "If you have enough book space, I don't want to talk to you." Terry Pratchett

I don't have an iPad, but I'm curious > about this. I never install iLife suite. iPhoto is just the default app that starts up. If you manually run Image Capture.app you can configure what happens when each device is attached. I have it set to not begin iPhoto when my iPod Touch is attached, for example. As to iPhoto alternatives, I guess Photoshop Elements is roughly equivalent. Maybe Picassa too? At the higher end Lightroom and Aperture are also presumably able to download from attached cameras. -- Chris

Can I assume from the above you can't view > the iPad as a USB mass storage device and drag files across that way? Correct, you can't. It doesn't mount like a drive.

But since no iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad currently advertises itself as a USB mass storage device, you can't just drag things off and on :-( You're limited to whatever the photo transfer protocol is (PTP?) -- Chris |
