Hello, I have what Amazon calls a “ [Apple MFI Certified] OMARS® Meteorite Lightning Flash Drive USB 3.0 32GB Memory Expansion for Apple iPhone iPod iPad & Computer Mac Laptop PC
” This device has a built in 32Gb SD card. It also has a rechargeable battery that can be charged via a PC via the USB port on the unit. The device has two ports one at either end. A standard USB for connecting to a PC and at the other end a Lightning Connector. When you first use the device you are required to download an app from the App Store. The app calls itself I-Drive. Using this app you can access the device. Unfortunately however it is invisible to Apple’s Files App. No idea why.Sent from my iPhone > On 5 Jan 2020, at 14:52, Richard Turner <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Russ, > Are you saying you have a USB powered hub that you plugged into the adapter > that was plugged into the iPhone? > That means you are adding multiple drives at once, which computers handle > fine; I am not sure iPhones or maybe even iPads can handle that. > Have you called Apple Accessibility who maybe could answer your question > fairly quickly? 877-204-3930 > > Richard > > 🖖 Live long and prosper > > > Check out my web site at: www.turner42.com > > From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Russ > Kiehne > Sent: Sunday, January 5, 2020 6:45 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Documents 7 review: Free iOS file manager puts Apple’s Files app > to shame > > I tried pluging in a flash drive where I got the message: accessory requires > too much power into a usb powered hub. when I connected the usb powered hub > into my device nothing happened. > > From: Ryan Mann > Sent: Saturday, January 4, 2020 9:32 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Documents 7 review: Free iOS file manager puts Apple’s Files app > to shame > > Note that with some drives, you will get a message that the accessory > requires too much power.
