how do i download mp3 to my ipad? I don't have another computer to synch to. It is my only computer device.

how do i download mp3 to my ipad if I don't have another computer or iPhone to synch it with to transfer? It is my only "computer device." I can't open zip files that others have sent me on my iPad and I can't listen to streaming audio off of others websites. I also cant download mp3 off of others' websites. I am taking an online course and the lessons are posted as mp3 and I can't get to them. Please help!


Thank you.

iOS does not have a user filesystem.


1. Get a DropBox account (FREE)

and the iPhone/iPad Universal app. It registers in the OS, and when you download files, you can transfer them from Safari and other apps into DropBox. From there you can playback.

2. iUnarchive (FREE)

Can unzip packages and load files, and send the unzipped package to DropBox.
