    Hey Juergen119,

     

    I would recommend syncing your photos from your computer to your iPad by using iTunes:

     

    iTunes: Syncing photos

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

     

    First, if you want to set it up to work via iCloud, I would check and make sure My Photo Stream is set up correctly on your devices:

    To use My Photo Stream you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:

    • iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    • Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    • Apple TV (2nd generation) with Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later
    • PC with Windows 7 or later and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows

     

    For complete iCloud setup instructions, visit How to set up iCloud.

     

    Then, once it is set up, you can upload your photos to My Photo Stream by following these directions:

    PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.
