    OK....you don't quite get this forum do you?  You don't need to start a new thread to get an answer to a previsous thread.  What you need to do, is actually tell us what you're trying to do with USB?  Just reply to your original thread with a full question.

     

    Like......I'm trying to charge my iPad via USB and it's not working, what am I doing wrong.

     

    Do you see?  A real question will get you real responses.

    You need a little more detail in the question.  But if the question is how do I share files with the USB, the answer is, not at all, or at least not easily.  The USB is for connecting to your computer with I tunes and your photo program, and for connecting the camaera connection kit, to import photos from a digital camera.

     

    There are a couple of new devices that, when coupled with an app. Suggest they will act like a pc type USB, but they are not in wide use yet.  The most frequent ways to get files on and off the pad are via syncing to your I tunes, or using a cloud approach like drop box or one of the other similar services.

    You're being way nicer than I am.  This is the OP's second thread with virtually no details in the question.  I'm not willing to guess what the question is and I've written to both threads that he/she needs to provide a complete question to get an educated answer.
