Being new to my Ipad Pro I’d like to know how to rename my usb stick. When I insert the stick into my ipad it shows up on the left column as ‘No Name’. All the folders on it display on the right with their various folder names. I can rename the folders but how do I rename the actual stick from ‘No Name’ to say utilities? So easy in Windows just don’t know how in IOS…

Thanks Carl for your valuable video. Today i had the following issue with ios word on ipad pro. I was editind a document created two weeks ago. At the time i needed to go back to files the document disappread and when i accessed the folder the version of the file was one week before. I communicate with Microsoft and Apple Support and could not help me. Thanks in advance for your thought!

@Carl_Pullein Год назад

Interesting one. Flies is basically a shell that pulls data in from the cloud apps you have on your iPad. This would mean that is something disappears from a cloud service, the likely error occurred on OneDrive (in your case) rather than Files.

@Lightnin991 Год назад

Thanks for this - it confirms what I already know but doesn't explain that why files open whenI tap them and other files come up with an error message.even though they're both in the Libre Calc format. Any idea why?

@Carl_Pullein 3 года назад

It depends. Often the file will be saved to your phone's folder in Files unless you specify exactly where you want it to go. To see that folder, you will need to scroll down to the very bottom of the files list. You will see it there. If it's not there, then open Files and look at what has happened in your Recents--if the file downloaded, it will show up there.

@John1911 3 года назад

Late to the party. Just got an iPad Pro. Looking to switch from my MacBook to all iPad. My question concerns backups and catastrophic recovery planning. The on my IPad folder: Is that just a folder that indicates items “downloaded” from ICloud? Or…is it a separate area that is segregated from the ICloud? Here is real life use case: Let’s say I am creating documents and videos on the iPad. And after creation and use, they reside in the “On my iPad” folder? Are these files NOT being automatically backed up on iCloud? Additionally…should I go in later and add something to a files in the “on my iPad” folder, will those changes be reflected in the ICloud later? Or should I keep Everything in the “Icloud Drive” folder?

@Carl_Pullein 3 года назад

The downloads folder on your iPad as well as "saved to iPad" will only save files locally. They are not backed up in iCloud. You would need to designate a separate iCloud folder to save your files. You will find, though, that a lot of time time, if your using apps like Garageband, your files will automatically save to the cloud.

Hi i am still a bit confused about where the files from iCloud goes when you open it /“download it” on different device . It seem like if I’ve got a file on my iMac’s desktop (synced to iCloud)and then go to my iPhone trying to open the file i have to download it (there is that little cloud in the corner)in order to open the file and it seem like it occupies space on my phones storage. But when i check the “iphone’s storage” nothing is there 😀 How does it work then? Are files from ICloud taking space from my phone when I want to access it? Thanks 🙂

@Carl_Pullein 3 года назад

It does occupy space when you first download the file. If you don't open the file again for a few days (or weeks, nobody knows how long it takes) it will be moved to iCloud only.

Theoretically, your cache and deleted stuff will be removed when you shut down and restart your iPad. The iPad was never designed for "power users" who understand clearing cache and other digital debris is a good thing. It's made to be used without all the old maintenance tasks people had to do many years ago.

You can open any file using the Files app, although you will need the appropriate app to open the file. If you want to install apps outside of the App Store, iOS is not going to be the best operating system for you. That's something Apple are never going to allow. For that feature, you would be better with Android.

Thank you again for responding. Your videos motivated me to adopt saving by app. Indeed as I am dismantling my old hierarchy of folders by topic or account the OS figures out what type of document I am filing be it Pages, Numbers etc. However for new documents the iOS system is placing the documents straight to iCloud Drive but not in the specific app folder. I can move the documents into the right folder but it seems like an extra step.

@rickatkinson1000 2 года назад

Hi Carl: I checked with Apple. They say that the default action for saving new documents(within the app) is to place the document in the iCloud Drive root level. From there the user can move the file to the location of their choice. The reason existing older files find their way to the respective App Folder is because the document already resides on iCloud Drive. Hmmm.

No, file manager for Android is so EASY TO USE AND UNDERSTAND

@osomax 2 года назад

Awesome app? That is the most confusing app that I used in my life! It's the only file manager where you don't know where your files went and when you think you've definitely managed to save one locally THIS IS NOT THERE!

Sorry to hear that.

Uggghhhh! You didn’t explain how they work. How you save files. How you find files. Why when you save files and it says “Path: Local”, yet there is no “Local” tab in Files. Why files show in Path but not in Files. Smh

My apologies.

You strayed off course mentioning in a confusing way items that DO NOT have to do directly with Files. I searched “Files” and you came up with more extraneous material than how to use Files and the options. We don’t care about One Drive, Windoz, what you use or don’t use and all the other baloney. Next time address “Files” and don’t go off course. Thanks!

IOS is horrible. Android is SO much more intuitive.

What a useless video. There is nothing in here that tells you how to organize the file structure.

Files is the messies piece of garbage apple have come up with, well the hole IOS is garbage, i thought this function would make IOS/ipad usable, but they just messed this up as well. i love mac os, that OS just works. However they must have been drunk during the hole process of making IOS.

@@mahnazqaiser3371 All you need do is open the notes app, type and close the notes app. Your note will be saved automatically. All you need worry about is typing your notes. Let Apple take care of everything else for you.

so basically files app is like the file manager on Android

@Carl_Pullein 3 года назад

I guess so. I’ve never used Android, so I unfamiliar with how that works.

@@Carl_Pullein Me too since I only use Android and now I tried ipad, been looking for the file manager and couldn't find it 😂 I went to youtube and found your video. And thats the only time I figure it out 😂 thanks for your video!

It is not. Android file manager gives you full access to device file structure. Files app on iOS is a sandboxed app. If for example you make a folder and put your photos in it, while on Android they will show on gallery, on IOS you have to export to photos app otherwise you cannot see them.
