Retrieval of documents/pix from SkyDrive
Hi to all,
I use SkyDrive for the storage of practically everything on both my iPhone and iPad 2. I've done this so I could free up some space and not store everything on both of my devices. One questions, that I hope someone can answer, is how do I download an item (let's say a picture) from SkyDrive back to my iPad 2, so I can use it?
I hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday Season. And as always, thanks in advance for your help.

Twerppoet's response is right on the money. I chip in here only because I also use SkyDrive to move stuff from PC to iPad and vice versa. Move whatever you want synced from your PC to your iPad by copy/paste or drag and drop into your SkyDrive folder on the PC. then when you open the SkyDrive app on your iPad (which you downloaded free from the Apple store), that item will be synced into that SkyDrive app.

Any ideas?
I'm sorry Cory, but I have never done it with videos so regret I can't contribute further on this. But I am most surprised that there should be a difference. My understanding is that ANY data item dropped into the PC's SkyDrive file would sync over to the iPad's SkyDrive file. May be worth fiddling with a bit more.....😰
