Hi there,
Could someone pls clarify whether it is possible to send files (i.e. photo's) from iPad to iPhone or MacBook, vice versa? I'm using 5.0. Thanks!

Hello and welcome to the forum! :)

Concerning Bluetooth (BT), the quick answer is NO - BT is used to connect a limited number of devices to the iPad w/o a wire; e.g. I own the Apple BT keyboard and also a set of BT headphones (the latter I use mainly w/ my iPod for music) - external BT speakers are another consideration - those are the main purposes for using BT unless something recently has been released by Apple or a third party?

However, Wi-Fi w/ a number of numerous apps can accomplish your goal(s), e.g. Photo-Sync is a great program for transferring images - there are so many other options - good luck in your choice(s) and enjoy!
