Connect the devices to a powered USB-A hub or secondary power source.
Where can I get this and how does it work for transferring my photo to my iPhone with the adapter that I already have but needs power.

Thanks for replying, 2Bumblebees, and that additional info, it really helps! Based on this info, this Apple resource and positioning maybe helpful:
"Some devices need more power than your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch can provide. If you connect one of these devices, you might see an alert that says “attached accessory uses too much power." Try one of these steps:
The Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter has a built-in Lightning port, which you can connect to a USB-A power adapter. This provides power to your iOS device and connected device."
Use Apple USB-A camera adapters with other USB-A devices
Have a great day and thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

My Apple adapter says it needs power to plug in my SD card or USB and the Apple website says to plug in a powered USB adapter but gives no part number for me to buy one from Apple.
