File sharing on the iPad in iTunes
From what I've read, a lot of people are having problems with the file sharing in iTunes for the iPad (under the apps tab), the problem is pervasive and goes back to last year. I'm trying to back up all the files in the apps that support file sharing (Pages and Good Reader primarily). Occasionally, one or two apps show up for a few seconds, long enough for me to use the "save to" function. Normally, they show up as blank. Anyone had any luck getting this to work? I think its an iTunes bug. I've tried closing iTunes, resyncing the iPad, disconnecting the iPad and reconnecting, even connecting the iPad from a powered down state. None of it works. I'm connecting to a Windows 7 computer (where all my music and movies are stored), but am considering trying to sync with my Macbook Pro, though I'm not sure what this will do (same iTunes account).
Using iTunes 10.4.1.10 (latest version as of 9/5/11)
