We finally did it!

We found our dream coach at MOT. It is a '01 42 ft U320 with lots of upgrades and extras. We take deivery in a couple of weeks after our residential fridge is installed. My questions will become more frequent and problem-oriented.

Michelle,

I am having problems understanding how to post images from my iPad. I read Steve's post in the How-to area, but didn't see anything about doing it from an iPad. Can that be done?

Thanks for all of the encouragement on our first Foretravel.

Bamafan, I only use my iPad and have not had any problems.  Did you try adding "attachments and other options" below the text box?
  Your life with the foretravel will never be the same.  We say all the time why did we wait so long?  Congrats, can't wait to meet you on the road somewhere.  David

We don't have an iPad, so I don't know the process or or the OS/file system on one.  I know there are folks here who will be able to help, though.

BamaFan,
When posting, just click the "choose file" located below the text area.  It will prompt you to take picture or choose existing photo.  If you choose existing for example, it will take you to your picture file and just click on the picture you want to post.  Hope it works for you!  And Welcome!

Well, for now I've given up on trying to attach pics from my iPad. So I have tried it from my Win machine. We'll see how that works. I don't have any good pics yet. This is the best that I have.

Edit: My wife decide she didn't like those pics, so I changed them.

Hi Royce,  Welcome to the Forum and the great folks here.  Help on any topic is just a question away.  Your new coach looks like a beuty!

If you are taking pictures with your iPad or iPhone keep the home button to your right or down so the orientation comes out correct.

Attaching a photo from your iPad is just like attaching from your pc.  Tap the  Attachments  and select Choose File under Attach:

If the photo you want is already on your iPad then choose Photo Library.  Your photo libraries will pop up.  Select the library you want and the photo you want. It shows up in attachments as a little photo about 1/8" square.  Once you post the photo will be in your post.

Here is my 2001 U320 peeking out of the barn at -18° getting ready to head south last February.

You are in good company.

Also had a problem getting pictures to post from iPad.  Found after selecting photos by pressing the box with orange sun and green background (directly under the B) was able to add the photos.  Not sure why but it worked.
