Hey lilafrommunster,


It appears you're wondering if you can get an adapter to use your USB drive with your iPad Air (3rd generation). The iPad Air (3rd generation) has a Lightning connector, so you would need an adapter that has a Lightning connector on one side and then a USB-A (or the applicable end that would work with your USB drive) slot on the other end. You can see if any nearby resellers have this adapter available. This link can help find locations: Apple - Find Locations - Location Selector
