This Quick Tutorial is for someone who want transfer their images from camera to ipad / ipad 2 / iphone.

My reason for doing this is for my customer to preview my pictures instantly. Instead of looking it up from my tiny screen on my camera, now they can take advantage of the big Apple iPad / iPad 2 screen.

First, assume you have a camera and a jailbroken ipad/iphone, you still need the following:

  • Eye-Fi SD Card (both non X2 and X2 works) Pro version is perfer allow to work without Wi-fi situation.
  • SDHC support CF card adaptor if your camera take CF card instead of SD
  • jailbroken ipad/iphone with “MyWi 4.0″ apps from Cydia and “shuttersnitch” from Apple apps store

So Here you go: (need a wireless connection area with a computer to setup at the very first time)
1. unwrap your Eye-fi X2 SD card, insert it to the USB adaptor that come with it and plug it to your computer.
Then install their software, software can be found inside the Eye-fi card.
Then Eye-fi will ask you to create an account, yes you need to register ! (Check your email to comfirm the registion before you move on)!!!!IMG_0796
2. Install MyWi 4.0 from an jailbreak ipad/iphone, under Cydia you need to purchase it.

3. Then turn on the Wi-fi hotsport at MyWi 4.0 (I didn’t try 3.0 or 2.0 but i think it may work as well)

4. Go back to your computer with the Eye-fi software and select the ipad/iphone wireless device that you just create using MyWi.
Go and add the ipad/iphone to the profile.
