Q: Device takes to much energy..." ?
When I try to connect my camera directly to my iPad with Retina, I get a message along the lines that the device being connected is taking too much energy and cannot be connected.
How can I connect my camera to my iPad?
SD Card works fine, but there are times I may want to just download my images directly from the camera instead.
Is anyone else getting this type of message?
iPhone 4, iOS 6.1

What app is on your ipad now for opening .doc and .txt files? Pages should do that, at least .doc.
This may be more than you need, but here's my list of office type apps and cloud based productivity services.
Apple's iWork apps

Others, including cloud based
- Microsoft Office Web Apps:These are versatile apps since they can be used on or off the cloud. Expect a simplified experience to the full version of Microsoft Office suite.
- OnLive: Access both a degree of Windows desktop functionality and full Windows versions of Microsoft Office Suite.
- CloudOn: This was one of the first solutions for iOS productivity. Syncing with Dropbox, CloudOn offers a more complete Windows desktop. The tradeoff is it also offers a more pared-down version of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
- rollApp: Offers Open Office programs for iOS, also utilizing Dropbox.
- LogMeIn: Remotely access your home computer's desktop from your iOS device. This solution requires coordination of logins, settings, and hookups. The free version does not offer file transfer, but you can get a separate, free app for that.
- Google Docs: Now featuring Google Drive for iOS, users no longer have to battle with pressing the Refresh periodically to initiate syncing. This makes collaboration much smoother, resulting in a stronger office productivity product.
