Wich hdd file format do you use in order to edit files inside of it?, since my (New)Hdd is formatted on (Exfat) and my ipad pro 2018 does not recognize it, but I have a micro sdcard and it does recognize it and allow to store files to it (using the same file format). (Also this hdd is recognized across all my other devices, if I do format the disk to NTFS, the ipad only recognize it as read-only). Thanks!

Thanks for a great video Andrew. I’m now using LumaFusion editing from the external 5Tb drive successfully. I also store finished Movies on the external drive too.. The problem I have is not being able to upload to KZfaq directly from the external drive. It doesn’t seem possible to browse and select the finished video from either the browser or app version of KZfaq on my iPad Air, works from a PC…. Have you had the same challenges? If so, it would be great to have another video to show the solution.. Best wishes, Paul

It’s the wrong goal. macOS was never designed for touch use while iPadOS was. Instead of putting in the significant work of trying to move macOS to iPad, iPadOS should be significantly beefed up. Allow iPad to run more Mac apps, work on windowing, add true external display support. No reason iPadOS can’t be improved and it is more future-forward, even if not powerful enough yet

@davidempire4874 2 жыл бұрын

@@AppleInsider The iPad Pro has the same M1 chip as the Mac and Apple is preaching it as a laptop replacement. There is no reason an M1 device (more powerful than most Windows laptops) should be held back by software. Putting macOS on the iPad would be by no means a difficult task. macOS can support a 4:3 aspect ratio. It can even support touchscreen monitors. It would be significantly easier than rebuilding iPadOS from the ground up.

@@AppleInsider WHY are people so afraid of macOS on a powerful iPad?! You most likely could dual boot, and you would never have to go into macOS if you didn’t want to! And if there was only macOS you didn’t have you wouldn’t have to buy it - you could get the iOS version.
