Q: Flash drive for iPad4
I am looking for a dual USB and Apple Lightning flash drive to quickly and easily transfer content between my PC and iPad 4.
I need to liberate storage space on my iPad4. I can't do the OS updates. I can't download new apps that require the newer OS versions. I am presently running the 7.0.6. version. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi, iOS 7.0.6

If you have iTunes on your PC, you can back up your data to iTunes on your PC, then start deleting stuff off of your iPad 4, then do the iOS upgrade with your iPad 4 connected to iTunes.
You can, also, check Apple's iCloud (Apple offers a 50 GB storage plan for $.99/month) and you could, also, backup your iPad 4 to iCloud.
There are a few special storage devices for mobile devices. There are portable hard drives for mobile devices made by Western Digital and Seagate.
