I have an SD card reader but when I plug it into my iPad along with the micro SD card in the reader, my iPad doesn’t respond to it at all. I’m thinking it may have something to do with the videos’ file type but I’m not sure. Will I need to convert them to a different format?
iPad Air (5th generation)
Start here:
Connect external storage devices to iPad - Apple Support
Direct import of photos from your camera SD Card to your Photo library is possible - subject to a couple of caveats:
Import photos using Apple camera adapters - Apple Support
If you are unable to use the direct photo import feature, you should still be able to manually access and copy photos from the SD Card using the iPad’s built-in Files App. To do so, just open the Files App - and in the Sidebar you will see your SD Card in the list of Locations. If necessary, open the sidebar by tapping the sidebar icon at top-left of the Files App Window. Photos can be copied to the iPad Photo Library, or copied to a folder of your choice either on your iPad or elsewhere.

My iPad Air 5th Gen doesn’t respond when I use my micro SD card reader. What could the issue be?
