    not sure what you're trying to do. If this is with ZotPad, contact their support. If this isn't with ZotPad, please provide a lot more details.

    It is with my Ipad. Not in ZotPad but in Zotero. Trying to upload an atachment. Chosing select file. I only get to my pictures. That is the beginning of my problem. My core problem is that I can't upload files via Evernote or Dropbox on ZotPad because it doesn'not recognize the files.

    I directed this request here because I thought that it was about the bookmarklet.

    There is currently no way to add any file from your iPad to your Zotero account. You currently have three ways to edit files on your Zotero account using iPad.

    1) Send the file to yourself by email, or some other way, and add it

    2) Use the Zotero bookmarklet. This works like the the import button in that it translates an existing webpage and downloads any attachment files that the page has.

    (I made a video of the bokmarklet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdk5XoxrN_U, the relevant part starts at 0:55)

    3) Use ZotPad to edit files that already exists in your Zotero library. This is explaned on pages 16-18 on the ZotPad user manual with screenshots: download a file using ZotPad, send the file to an external application for editing, and send it back to ZotPad for uploading.

    Uploading any file is one of the most requested features for ZotPad, and it will be implemented in the next larger update. Here is the relevant feature request http://zotpad.uservoice.com/forums/172475-general/suggestions/3121352-allow-uploading-new-attachments
