Though the thunder of iPad 4 has been stolen by the loftily expected iPad mini, the new Apple tablet is still a real market hit. Moreover, as the new flagship of iOS tablet, iPad 4 can take full advantages of the latest apps in App Store.

With the help of music apps and the new EarPods, iPad 4 makes music enjoyment extraordinary entertaining experience. Now more and more people tend to use iPad 4 as a powerful MP3 player. As a consequence, the transference of music from iPad 4 to computer seems to be quite necessary in some situations. As a device devoid of Micro SD slot, iPad 4 only allows users to take full use of the built-in memory space. Therefore, when there is no space left and users are reluctant to delete any songs, they can transfer music from iPad 4 to computer to make room for new songs.
