This program:

Supposed to allow you to access iPads, iPhones etc from Mac and PC through Explorer rather than iTunes.

I need to know if you can also use to transfer Pages and Word files?
If not, any other similar programs that do?

aven't used it myself but it gets favourable reviews on macupdate:

There's also a free demo you can download to find out if it does what you need.

I have used it and it's good. It was once upon a time free but not used it in a while.

I use it for transferring the odd file across but for something completely different, never tried it for page and word files. I just use the demo version and never had a problem. Well worth giving the demo a try.

Very good program too

I too used to use the free version.. if its just for file transfer, I much prefer dropbox at the moment or even icloud thou icloud will only work with files from programs that it knows about.

Thanks for the feedback.
Didn't realise there was a demo version

In fact it was only when someone at work mentioned it I even was aware these type of programs existed.
I thought iTunes was the only way to file transfer for iPads etc :rolleyes:

I am using dropbox app for file sharing. According to me Dropbox is the best solution for file transfer.

I use http://www.copytrans.net/#copytrans-manager (freeware) to copy new music to my iPad & iPhone without having to sync.
