Apr 4, 2012 8:43 AM in response to kerry108by Menel,iOS does not have a user filesystem.
1. Get a DropBox account (FREE)
https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTM5MjIxMDE3OQ?src=referrals_twitter9
and the iPhone/iPad Universal app. It registers in the OS, and when you download files, you can transfer them from Safari and other apps into DropBox. From there you can playback.

2. iUnarchive (FREE)
Can unzip packages and load files, and send the unzipped package to DropBox.

Jun 23, 2012 8:07 AM in response to Menelby Stargazer250,On mp3 links, it just plays in Safari. How do I save the mp3 if all I have is an iPad?
Thanks!

Sep 24, 2013 10:48 PM in response to Stargazer250by ronald o,First of all, as suggested above, you will need Dropbox and an account. Get that done first.
Whence Dropbox is installed and setup, navigate to the mp3 file, tap and hold the link and a pop up will display list of options, including save to Dropbox.
Another method is to install iCab mobile: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icab-mobile-web-browser/id308111628?mt=8
iCab mobile will let you download mp3 files directly onto your iPad and store them there. Additionally, you can play back mp3 files within iCab.
Further, iCab offers Dropbox integration, which brings us back to the top.

Oct 4, 2016 9:28 PM in response to Menelby overapplealready,This did not work for me. I downloaded Drop Box onto iPhone. From iPhone, visited my website where I have uploaded MP3 files and installed a "DOWNLOAD" plug in so that users of my site (members of my choir) can download and listen to recorded training track (MP3s) on their iphones. When I click "Download" button, i get a fleeting pop-up message saying my file will download soon. Then no apparernt action. When I look in the Drop Box, no Mp3 files have been downloaded. When I go back to the music player / download, I select & copy the url address and save THAT to drop box. When I ope drop box and serach for the MP3 file, all that I can access is the url address which links back to my website.
BTW - Droid users have no problem. They just click the download button and the file plays on Google Play and shows up in their Downloads folder (on home page) for access any time.
