I bought this card reader because it was advertised to work with the iPad. I wanted something that would allow me to load images into my wife's iPad while we were traveling and thought this would take care of my need.

I tried loading images from xD and Sony memory sticks into the iPad using this card reader, and the iPad recognized the cards and displayed the images. This functionality seems to be completely compatible with the iPad. However when I tried to load images from my compact flash cards the iPad displayed a message telling me that the device required too much power. Interestingly enough when I tried loading images from my sdhc-to-compact flash adpater using an inserted shdc card, it did work.

So, if you need to import images from xD or Sony memory stick cards into an iPad, this should work for you. If you need to import images from a real compact flash card, it will not work for you, but will if you are importing images from an adapter using an sdhc card. Had I known of the compact flash restriction I would not have ordered this reader and expect to return it to Amazon.

UPDATED 10/21/2010:

After writing this review I sent an email to Lexar to ask if they had a list of compact flash cards that were compatible with this reader and the iPad. They did not give me a list, but they did mention that some UDMA compact flash cards required too much power for the iPad to supply. Based on this response I bought 2 non-UDMA 8GB cards (one was ProMaster and the other was a Lexar 200x) and tried both with the reader and the iPad. Both worked as advertised.

Based on this test it seems safe to say that the reader works, when attached to the iPad, with some 8GB non-UDMA compact flash cards. I don't know if it also works with the iPad when using larger non-UDMA compact flash cards, or not. I have tested it and found it does not work with my 16GB and 32GB UDMA cards, but do not know if it will work with smaller UDMA cards.

While the problem is not the reader itself I do believe that Lexar, which must have run their own tests (at least with their own cards) prior to marketing the reader, should be clear in their advertising that while it IS compatible with the iPad, it will NOT work with all compact flash cards.

I found that this card reader causes the same problems with my iPad... the warning that it will not work due to the fact that it draws too much power.

What DOES work is the IOGear USB 2.0 Combo Hub and Card Reader with Mini-B Cable GUH286. Because it comes with an auto-switching 110/120-volt power adapter, it does not draw power from the iPad. This reader allows importing photos to the iPad from all card types, including CF and XD. An extra item to carry, but if you need to import from more than an SD card this is a great device!

Great multi card reader September 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this multi card reader when my old reader for my compact flash card went bad. I now can use this same reader for all my different cards, including the one that is in my cell phone. Nice and compact for storage too. Definitely would recommend for the price.

Great for computer, not for iPad.
I bought this to use with my laptop while working in the field. It seems to be the fastest reader I've used with my 200x CF cards so far, so I'm satisfied. Read more
