Are FAT32 and exFAT the only filesystems that iPad can read/write from that can also be read/write on a Windows system? Some google searching suggests this is the case but I figured a doublecheck would be easy in here, mostly because the search engines think I'm actually interested in osx and windows which is close but not quite.

No networking in this case, I'm trying to come up with a somewhat convenient way to copy the contents of a cfexpress card to an ssd while on a road trip and have the ssd readable by windows when I get home. I figured using Files.app would be serviceable because I'll already have the ipad with me, and if it works it's less gadgets to pack. But I'm discovering ipad os' copying features are pretty primitive. When dragging a folder to an existing folder, there's two options: duplicate or replace. There's no way to have it skip already copied files. And the replace option generates errors.

Well, I got a $270 iPad gen 9 yesterday to replace my Air 2 that has been absolute dogshit for the past 4 years or so of iOS updates. It took an eternity to open literally anything on it. It’s nice actually being able to type on a keyboard without crazy lag.

Looks like Logic Pro and Final Cut are finally coming to the iPad, for all the people who have been complaining that the iPad got the “Pro” moniker without any ”Pro” apps to go with it. M1 and up only for Final Cut, but Logic seems to need only an A12 or better.

Just adding that these are not one-time only buys like on Mac OS, but subscriptions. It's annoying to see Apple go the Adobe route but eh, people will pay for it so it'll work. Hopefully it doesn't happen to the Mac OS versions...probably a good idea for students to take advantage of the $200 Pro bundle.

Wonder if final cut will run better on the M1 than Davinci does. Subscription is rear end though.

I could see them rolling that into the top tier (or a new tier) of Apple One. They absolutely want everyone subscribing to that.

Considering how Apple Arcade has ultimately failed to make much of an impact (and the app store’s relationship with games in 2023 in general a huge disappointing mess compared with productivity/lifestyle apps), it’d make sense for them to expand Apple Arcade into an umbrella covering subscription-based apps too

Every usb-c microsd reader i've used has been flaky.

Oh my God, the Stage Manager feature is what I've wanted for years. Three windows AND picture-in-picture video, it's like using four iPhones at once.

I say this without like, sarcasm or ill intent or anything but I want to know what your impression of stage manager is gonna be after a month of usage. I feel like Apple kinda knows what they’re going for with it, but then there’s these seemingly arbitrary self limiting choices that they made that kinda spoil it all for me. It becomes a bit of a fiasco when you use an external monitor because the limit on window sizing options seems like some sort of compromise that pleases nobody, especially the end user who is trying to snap windows into certain areas.

I don't use it for work, this is a shitposting and media consumption device that I can carry around everywhere. I'd prefer it if each window was edge-to-edge, but they're already larger than the screen on my iPhone 11. In fact, each window is as large as my phone is, bezels and all (iPad pro 11").

Swipe down from the top right corner of your pro/m1 Air, and select the icon with three small squares to the left of a bigger square. I wouldn't bother using it unless you have a pressing need to be tracking updates from multiple windows at once but somehow DON'T need them to be in real time. Which is to say, reading and making forums/discord/etc posts.

It becomes a bit of a fiasco when you use an external monitor because the limit on window sizing options seems like some sort of compromise that pleases nobody, especially the end user who is trying to snap windows into certain areas. I use it for work, most days, via an external monitor, and have done for a couple of months now. I like having the iPad second screen below it, where I can have my emails or music app up and can navigate via touch, and then a word processor and browser window or two on the external monitor. It’s way better than it was when it first launched, although it’s definitely not as malleable as a normal desktop-class OS. You get the sense that they’ve taken it as a chance to completely rethink how an OS might work, for better or for worse. I get the sense that a lot of apps need to catch up to it - what I would normally go to most apps for, I just do via safari instead (like Netflix, YouTube, stuff like that), because you can’t do obvious things like go full-screen on a lot of apps. Even Apple Fitness doesn’t run its videos full-screen on your external monitor. It does take a while to get used to the flow and logic of how to navigate - there is a logic to it, but if you’ve grown up around a desktop environment it’ll feel counter intuitive at first. It feels at times like the OS equivalent of one of those alternative keyboard layouts, where devotees tell you how great it is, but there’s the huge buy-in of you having to re-wire your brain to get used to it. Or, I dunno, like a recumbent bicycle. But I still really like it, because even though it’s fairly limited, if your use case falls within those guardrails it is nice to use and look at. You can zip around the interface pretty snappily using a trackpad/magic keyboard type setup. You’ll have a bad time with a mouse. It’s nice to be able to just take it to work, plug it into a monitor, and have all my apps and stuff there. It runs well and there’s no slowdown. Personally, I have a much easier time focusing on things with iPadOS. I use it for most of my work now, and really just use my windows pc for games. The caveat is that I mostly just write (and a bit of light research) for a living, and I can get away with using my own choice of office software and generally don’t have to worry about compatibility with co-workers’ machines beyond using Zoom + Outlook. If I had a macbook I would almost definitely use that instead. But I don’t, and honestly this is just a nice environment to get work done and do some light computing type stuff.

Is there a website or something I can use to learn about all the useful poo poo that has been added since iOS 12? I got this iPad Pro to replace an OG air and I'm kinda overwhelmed at what it can do and missed out in all the multitasking stuff that exists now.

Im kind of surprised how decent the onscreen keyboard experience is for the iPad 11 inch in landscape orientation. I probably wouldn’t use it to make an entirely new thread OPs worth of content, but it’s actually really good for smaller posts such as this one. Portrait mode keyboard is yikes, though.

I always use the split keyboard, especially in portrait. Having half a keyboard at hand usually works well enough.
