Update: The lack of camera applies only to the first generation iPad.
As iPad doesn’t have a camera, we cannot take photos directly with the iPad. So we have to add those photos to iPad from our PC or some other device.
If you have an iPhone with you, then it is possible to take photos with the iPad. Check this out to know more about it.
Anyway, here we are discussing about how to add photos to iPad. If you have some good photos in your computer and want to add them to your iPad, then here is how to add photos to iPad. Just do the following steps to add photos to iPad from the computer.
Method One ( Easy Way )
1. Just email the photo to one of your own email address.
2. Now take that mail inbox on your iPad.
3. Save the image to your iPad photos library.
That’s all!
Method Two
1. Connect iPad with your PC.
2. Select iPad under ” Devices ” in iTunes.
3. Select the Photos tab.
4. Check the Sync Photos from box.
5. Now click on the small arrow to get the drop down menu and click on ” Choose folder “.
6. Select the desired location and click on ” Select Folder “.
7. Now select ” Select Folders ” box.
8. Now select the desired ones from the list and click on ” Apply ” to finish.

I am not sure how to download a photo from email. Can you explain how this is done?

Hi Pat,
Just tap and hold the image and you’ll get the option to save the image to your iPad photos library.
Hi, iPad resized the images so that they take up entire screen space in Photos. That makes images blurry. I looked into settings, but they do not have an option to keep the original size and not resize. Any sufpggestions?
Hi Bimal,
I created a folder for comics with individual pictures in a order so I can read my comics on my computer. I added that folder to my iPad through iTunes but unfortunately it shows pictures in a different order. I have checked settings but could not solve this problem. Can you help me on this?
Thanks

Thought this might be the tip I was looking for but found a glaring problem with it. Itunes won’t allow you to select a subfolder specifically, only the parent. I pointed the sync entry to “My Pictures” on my pc and then scrolled thru the list to select folders I wanted. Discovered it only shows the primary folders under the root path – and wont’ let you click into a folder to select just the subfolder under it. Weak. Very Weak Itunes.
