    If I have a video on my iPhone that I want to watch on my dads iPad, how do I do that?

    Someone told me "Select the video, Go to the small box with the up arrow and click on it, Send it to him via email or iMessage which will be sent by MMS, Either way will work. Good luck!"

    There is no small box with an up arrow (I know the icon). I do NOT want to have to upload the file first then start downloading it on the iPad, I could just use Dropbox if I was going to do that.

    I want to know how to send a video directly to the ipad using my wireless connection at full speed. Please tell me the iOS is capable of this.

    Thanks

    I see the icon and it works for me. Can you post a screenshot of what you see after you select the video?

    Use AirDrop! Works like a charm as long as you're close. Works for long videos too.

    Just movies you shot with your iOS device. Just like you can't airdrop music.

    The OP said video, but meant a movie. Nope, you can't AirDrop a movie. But there's this app.?
