Let's be real — you've got a gazillion adorable photos sitting on your iPad right now. Maybe it's sunset shots, your dog doing something hilarious, or that one perfect selfie you actually like. Time to get them onto your Mac before you lose them, yeah?
Don't worry, it's ridiculously easy. Grab a USB cable (the one your iPad uses — hunt behind the couch if you need to), plug your iPad into your Mac, and unlock your iPad. Trust me, this step trips people up more than you'd think.
Now open Finder on your Mac. Click on your iPad under "Locations" on the left sidebar. Then head to the Photos tab. You'll see all your gorgeous pictures ready to roll. Choose "Import New" if you only want the latest ones, or "Import All" if you're feeling ambitious and filling up your hard drive like a champ.
