Pictures from IPAD MINI

[tippytail]

Hi all, I am new to all forums,
I have a new IPAD mini 6 weeks now.
I took 200 pictures while on a trip.
How do I get the pictures to Icloud?
or anyplace else so I can get access from my desktop windows PC?

Hi, welcome to iPF!

You could download Dropbox on your iPad (the app) and on your PC, and enable "Camera Upload" on your iPad. That way the pictures in your Photos app (Camera Roll) will automatically be loaded to your Dropbox account, and you'll have access to them on your computer as well.

There's also the possibility to import them: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

Photo Stream is another option: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486

I use Dropbox. Once enabled, there's nothing you have to do but open the app, and the upload will start. (iPad owner since April last year)
Transferring pictures to the pc often causes problems, afaik, so I wouldn't choose that option in your case.
I don't know how to view your photos through Photo Stream, because I don't use it on my pc, so you'll have to wait for advice from someone else. Sorry!

Alternatively, you can use an app like Photo Transfer App to download photos straight to your PC via wifi.

I have been shown drop box many years ago and used it once and have not used it again. As it is already on my PC I will put it on my IPAD and try it.

Thanks again
