i ran the beta of Ipad OS 13 on my gen 1 12.9 Ipad Pro and connected all my external drives via the USB w/power port and using a power block of between 12W and 29W. My drives are 2 Lacie mobiles of 1T-(one was Thunderbolt 2 but also had a USB port, the other 1T USBa), a WD 4T USBa, and a Sandisk...

I installed both public betas on my well used with battery issues gen 1 12.9 Pro. It is what I hoped even with the bugs. There are several things I hadn't even thought of wanting LOL but love using. I wouldn't recommend installing until later unless you have an older or alternative device. I...

I have a gen 1 12.9 Ipad Pro with lightning port and though it has a battery that constantly needs charged (main reason I bought the 2018) I charged it, installed the public beta. I just love it—so much of what I have hoped for over the years and likely will mean my late 2015 Macbook Pro will...

I agree with you-especially the second paragraph. I have a MacBook Pro 15" but think I can migrate entirely to my 2018 12.9 Pro. I don't code, don't use apps only available for the Mac, and my use of spreadsheets and docs is basic enough to do on a big iPad (and photography processing on the...

Thanks so much. I have several hubs on my list but don't know this one. I too have the Brydge (12.9) so am looking for a hub with exactly the ports your hub has.

I'm really surprised not to see any thread on IOS13/iPad OS. There are so many things that will make my 201812.9 Pro experience so much better that I just kept hurrahing as it was spelled out (but so fast hard to keep up with). And then as people got hands on and tried different things my smile...

I know this is probably something you've already done but I always tell friends to reboot when any app or device doesn't act as expected or as before. I've seen it "fix" things in my husband's devices when he has some seemingly unlikely issue and I ask if he's rebooted (the answer is almost...

Thought I would mention that I did preorder the Brydge keyboard case for my 2018 12.9 Pro. I received it last week and have to say I love it. Because I use the keyboard often and touch type, this works very well for me. It is heavier—probably feels about as weighty as the Logitech Slim Combo...

Depending for what and how you use a stylus the Logitech Crayon is an excellent alternative (I have the Pencil 2, had Pencil 1 with gen 12.9). Adonit also makes some excellent accurate styluses-i still carry one to use with my iPhone. I've had a lot of earphones over the years but I've been...

Mini update: Found Amazon was able to deliver before last trip so bought from them. I've found it a great companion to my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 like Twerpoet I use it for notetaking all the time both in Notability app and Notes. I can throw it in a bag for easy carry and know notes or anything...

I have both of the SD dongles, lightning and now a USBc for my 2018 12.9 Pro. Both work really well and depending on your Ipad model may be extremely fast. When I travel I often use a WD wifi/USB external drive—easy to transfer to a computer when I return. I’ve contemplated a USBc hub (if your...

My Kindle is years old with a very aging battery and I’ve been contemplating replacing it—a friend has an old Mini 4 for reading primarily so I had looked at refurbed 4s but hated buying a device that old. I use a 12.9 gen 3 Pro all the time (has pretty much replaced my Macbook Pro 15” except...

That’s really bizarre—three. I haven’t heard of anyone else having a similar issue so far. Hope it can be resolved. I truly enjoy using the 2018 12.9 Pro and have had no issues at all—LOL—well, none not self inflicted.

Will be looking to see how the drive works

Back again about cases. My needs/wants may not be the same as many but the right case can mean a better use (or maybe more enjoyable should be the better word) of the Ipad. I’ve had Ipads since the first one just several weeks after it came out so have been thru many cases and covers and know...
