IPad – way to get iTunes to transfer the apps on an offline machine

ipaditunes

My Music collection is all my own and stored on a PC which doesn't connect to the internet. this has been fine for most cases however recently i've been needing to get a hold of a word processor and learned about Pages, problem is that it appears that the only way to get documents on and off my iPad is to use iTunes.

As my PC is offline so when i connect my iPad to sync stuff like movie, music and images i get the a message saying it can't transfer my apps which is understandable as i can't sign into my apple account.

i could install itunes on my laptop but the documents i want to sync are on my offline PC for when i work on there (ipad work would be for when i don't have access like if i'm in the car for a 2 hour trip) and it's a pain keeping 2 sets up to date, not to mention as i saw in this video i can only sync with one itunes (to which my laptop doesn't have the space for my music and ripped movies)

So I am wondering if there is a way to transfer my apps from my iPad to iTunes on my offline PC? (ie. installing and loging into itunes on my laptop then copying something from my laptop to my PC to trick itunes on my PC that i did sign in)

Best Answer

You can transfer from iPad to Laptop using Internet and iTunes.

Now use a cross-over Ethernet cable, and transfer from Laptop to PC.

There is no Internet involved here, just the cable.

How to use cross over cable set up.

All above also works in reverse.

Get the crossover ethernet cable.
