Although the iPad is rated as the best tablet on the market today, one of the device's biggest "minus points" is the lack of USB ports. However, you can still use the USB drive on the iPad by connecting them via Apple's camera connection kit.

The steps are as follows:

- Step 1: Format USB Flash Drive with FAT32 standard using Disk Utility Partition, MSDOS (FAT) utility.

- Step 2: Create a folder (folder) named 'DCIM' in the root of the USB Flash Drive drive. Put pictures and movies in it.

When connected to a USB Flash Drive drive through the Camera Connection Kit, the iPad will determine that it is connected to a digital camera and read the movie files and images in the 'DCIM' folder. An open application will allow you to copy images and movies from USB Flash Drive to iPad.
