With iCloud, we don't need to use iPad/iPhone/iPod to Computer Transfer when we need to share media files among iPad, iPhone and iPod. As long as we upload important data from Apple device to iCloud, we are allowed to access these files freely. Although there is only 5GB space for free, it is enough for most Apple user.
This page is going to tell you how to transfer photos/music/video/app/contact/settings from iPhone to iPad. Here you need to note that iCloud is only support files downloaded or purchased from iTunes App Store. That means you cannot backup media files you downloaded from other web store like Amazon to iCloud. Or we have to still use iPad/iPhone/iPod to Computer Transfer. Here comes the detailed guide.
How to Sync iPhone Music/Settings/App/Contacts/Photo/Video and etc. to iPad via iCloud?
First all all, you have to make sure your iPhone and iPad have upgraded to iOS 5 or later system. Or iCloud is not accessible for you.
Step 1. Active iCloud on Your iPhone/iPad Air
It is very easy to active iCloud on your iDevice.
* Open your iPhone and iPad. Tap Settings button of the home screen.

Step 2. Upload iPhone Files to iCloud

As long as you have connected iPhone with Wi-Fi or 3G/4G network connection, the iCloud will backup all files of your iPhone files automatically. It means all iPhone photos, music, video, app, setting, contacts, etc. will be transferred to iCloud.
