Gary:

You have about 4 steps to get your iPad pictures into Legacy.

I will outline the process.
1.  Transfer your iPad pictures to your PC
2.  Edit / Resize your pictures (e.g., 400x400 pixels)
3.  Copy / Move resized pictures to your Legacy picture file folder (e.g., 
Windows 10 --- c:/Documents/Legacy Family Tree/Media/)
4.  Attach 1 file to Individual and/or 1 file to an Event for individual or a 
marriage event for a family picture.  This events picture is the only way to be 
able to print the picture in a report.  When the pictures r printed in a 
report, they normally are only 1.5" high by 1" wide.  For a scrapbook, I would 
print either 4 or 6 per page and this is why you want to resize / crop the 
picture used in Legacy to something like 400x400, 400x300,  .....  you need to 
experiment with the scrapbook report and see how many you want to print on a 
page and size all of your pictures so that will work correctly.

Here are some other tips but will not go into depth of how to.
Step 1 above:
Several ways to transfer iPad pictures to PC --
- Use iTunes and connect iPad
- use a USB stick like sans to copy and transfer
- use an app like PhotoSync on iPad and PC on same Wi-Fi ( this is my favorite 
way)
- use a cloud service like DropBox

Step 2 a I like FastStone Image Viewer. It is free and simple to use for 
resizing pictures.  About 10 minutes and you r good to go.

Anyway, that's a start. The devil is always in the details.
