Nov 11, 2014 11:55 AM in response to Keeley4Ryanby Star Traveler,I'm not absolutely sure about that, because I don't know how long data will remain in the flash drive (on the iPad) without any power. Maybe someone else knows whether data will remain a long time without power ... or it requires a minimum amount of power all the time. There are flash drives where you can disconnect from power and have data stay. You can't go on some assumption here ... you have to know this "for sure".

Nov 11, 2014 12:13 PM in response to Keeley4Ryanby Star Traveler,That would make a difference if the app was saving documents to iCloud. For example, I have Pages and it saves my documents to iCloud. Therefore, it would depend on whether this app you're using did that. If you don't know, you could write to the developer and ask.
I have several apps that save to iCloud, and that is something different than the "iCloud Backup", just so you know.

IF i replaced the battery myself would all my documents still be there or would they go
Yes they would survive, provided that you don't screw up in the procedure. Note that iFixIt rates the deed as DIFFICULT (i.e., not for the faint of heart or 10-thumbed individuals). They also have all the stuff you need to do it including the heating pads and, naturally, the new battery. The main risk is cracking the glass.

Do you have to use batteries on your USB thumb drive? No? Well, the storage on an iPad is the same thing, just bigger (in some cases). Things remain there forever, even if the battery is deader than King Tut.
