    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Those that I've seen have only had SD or microSD, and I need CF Express. But the main thing for me from this thread is that it seems to work well enough, so it's an option I can consider.

    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Thanks, the other hubs I've seen suggested are Delkin and Amker. Until I watched the videos this morning, it had never occurred to me to use the phone for this. My iPhone 7 is also ideally needing replaced. But like my old ipad it does 80% -90% of what I need it to do, and don't feel all that...

    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Thanks, I had forgotten about this (I used to have an equivalent many years ago). As it so happens, as I use CF express cards (as well as SD) it wouldn't work for me. In my case, I really need a new iPad (and a replacement for my two dead laptops), so this is an exercise in trying to decide...

    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Thanks. It's raised in a few videos I've watched, but only in the older ones. So I'm not sure if it's now less of an issue (assuming I buy new), but still worth checking. For me, it's normally not going to be much of a problem. Most days I'm backing up far less than 100 files, and even on a...

    Looking for panorama stitching software

    It was a phase I went through of experimenting with panos that didn't last all that long. Partly because I didn't fancy paying the price for PTgui, and after having used it, wasn't happy with the results I was getting from the alternatives. I still think about giving it another go, and if I...

    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Thanks, and the Youtube algorithm is also suggesting other useful options.

    iPad for transferring files from memory card to external SSD

    Does anyone use an iPad to copy files from a camera memory card to an external SSD? I am assuming you need some sort of hub to plug into the iPad and then plug a card reader and SSD into. I don't want it to be copied into the ipad and then copied to the SSD, but directly from card to drive...

    Looking for panorama stitching software

    I did some comparisons some years ago (not including Hugin) and liked the results from PTGui, much better than I got from LR, Affinity Photo, and a third program I can't remember the name of. But I wasn't sure if this was down to my inexperience of making panos with any of these programs, or...

    Looking for panorama stitching software

    I've not used it but as @Ian Grant has suggested, Hugin gets good reviews. e.g. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PgZ8xNIxo8&t=379s

    mail server error message?

    Yes, but those are the server and port details for fetching mail "from" the FastMail servers (unless I misunderstand). Fetching email from FastMail is working fine. Edit: the relevant help pages are here...

    mail server error message?

    I'm not sure I feel able to ask FastMail to try connecting with POP3 (I'm not even sure they support it)

    mail server error message?

    Thanks, but no. The error report is the error message that Zen are sending Fastmail when they try to fetch mail from my mail boxes (mine and my wifes) on the Zen server. FastMail are then sending me an email, telling me that they are receiving this error from Zen when trying to fetch my email...

    mail server error message?

    I wonder if anyone can shed light on an occasional error I am getting once to twelve times a day I use FastMail to fetch my email from my domain at Zen. I then read my emails using the Fastmail client. My wife and I both use a joint account with Fastmail, and this affects my mailbox and her...

    Nor is my memory, but as a Capture One user, I just remembered the background.
