Transferring files from your Mac to your iPad can be a bit of a challenge, especially if you’re dealing with files that aren’t natively playable on Apple devices. In this post, we’ll show you how to transfer files from your Mac to your iPad using a few different methods.

The first method involves connecting your iPad to your Mac using a USB cable and using Finder to transfer files. Once connected, you can select your iPad in the locations menu and transfer files such as music, movies, TV shows, photos, and other types of files. However, some files, such as FLAC and MKV, are not transferable via cable.

If you need to transfer any file, including those that are not natively playable, you’ll need to check out Walter Pro. Walter Pro can transfer any file and convert it to a format that will play natively on your iPad. It works on iPhone, iPad, or iPod and can be used from your Mac or a Windows PC wirelessly.

To use Walter Pro, head over to softwareenal.com and download the free version. You can then convert any file you want to transfer. The app also comes with a host of other apps, including Syc Pro, iRing, Hold, Colorizer for Mac, and more.

Using Walter Pro, you can send files directly to Apple Music or your iPad, and they will be playable without any issues. You can even send video files that are not natively playable, and they will show up in the TV app.

Overall, transferring files from your Mac to your iPad is easy once you know how to do it. Whether you use the cable method or Walter Pro, you can transfer any file you want and enjoy it on your iPad.
