Can Not upload files from iPad to Content management sites?

still you can not Uploading files on the IPad to CM sites... because "Choose file" is grayed out in Moodle or any other web based content management site I use. If it's absolutely not possible I need to be going another route. No file systems means this iPad can't do simple web based tasks. Please no post on how to attach to iPad apps. I need to upload or attach files on my iPad to a web based email account or to a content management site. After a year of waiting for apple to make this more than a content viewing tool im finally getting ready to move on.

iPad, iOS 4.3.2

Hey - I may be a bit late - but I was trying to apply for jobs via job search websites and it would not give me the option to upload my CV - I was able to forward my CV via email - but that was all. Anyhow, I discovered iCabMobile (which is very much legal and costs £1.49 on the App Store) - it's a third party web browser - it works like Safari and it also allows you to store any files in the download option - it allows me to upload my CV and more documents online without any trouble.


I still use Safari, but for work (now that I have finally found one) I like to use iCabMobile as it allows me to do things that I would need my laptop for.


I hope this helps you as it has helped me - I understand we all have different needs for our iPads...


P.S It also works on my iPhone too!!

Thanks but a couple clarifications needed please (I am a 'semi-lay' user)


iCAB says: Search suggestions from Google and Yahoo can be activated on the iPAD. ( OK - where? )


You said - Reset the BrowserID (assuming iPAD) - ( reset to what and where? )



I just want to upload PDF's or WORD to company job application sites. Geeze I only have an iPAD, going to the library is a pain.



iCAB has great reviews.

I too need to upload PDFs to a Drupal site often and would love to use my original iPad (which doesn't allow iOS 6) if away from my Mac Pro and only have access to my iPad.


After reding this thread carefully I'm wondering 2 things:


1. Is iCab better than iUploader for my purpose?


2. If somone emails me a PDF attachment, since a normal finder file architecture doesn't exist on ipad (or at least that we can see and navigate to files in) can one of the above apps find a PDF file attached to an email in my inbox?


Or do I need to get the PDF into say DropBox and then I can access the PDF with iCab or iUploader to then upload to a Drupal type site?


Thanks for the help.

Please help!


I am on the verge of returning this IPad 4!!! It seems like every time I want to do ANYTHING, I have to do hours of research first! Then there's a fee for everything. Either that, or it just cannot be done due to Apple restrictions, agreements, or whatever. Who has time for this??? Well, technically, I do, since I am unemployed. This brings me to the issue everyone seems to be discussing. How can I UPload (or attach) my resume, which I have managed to save in PDF format in IBooks, on a web site? And might I add, how can I do this for free, quickly, and easily? Oh my goodness, I miss my Gateway. . .


Many thanks.

Instead of going to the very end and posting the very same question as the first post, how about read the last 5 pages of this very topic?

Iuploader doesnt work with kijiji. If you get the email sent to you as well, you can see that your file was never attached to the email sent thru kijiji with iuploader.


Still looking for a way to upload my resume with kijiji. Im guessing it might be on their end because none of the browsers or their iphone app have successfully uploaded and sent a file.
