Alright, I am not a very techy person but I do know how to use my computer and navigate the setting on three different OS. Lot to learn and not a lot of time. My question is: "Is there a External DVD drive that I can hook up to my Ipad?". I saw Apple's Superdrive but I don't really want to pay the price so I was curious if there is something that someone would recommend. Who knows I could just be talking nonsense. Thanks
Any external USB DVD drive will work with an iPad, but any thing that requires a Super Drive like iDVD or iMovie will not recognize the external DVD drive unless it is an Apple Super drive.
So basically I can use any external DVD drive...would I have to get a app or would it just register as a hardware. Any specific recommendations for an external DVD drive? I don't really want to fork out 80$ for the apple Super Drive.
I am yet to learn of a tablet that supports external (USB) devices, moreso HDDs and ODDs. The USB port on them can be quite misleading. As spunk.funk points out, there is no (builtin) support for them, one reason why laptop PCs are not gonna be replaced by tablets any time soon.
So basically I am stuck with Apple's Super Drive and can not use anything else....I just love some of these Apple "quirks". I found out that I can't copy you-tubes either; everything must go through the app store. Thanks for your help. I plan on having more questions for this forum in the future.
I downloaded it and ran the program; thanks a lot for the help. :thumb:
