How to share from GarageBand to Google Drive Garageband is a free (to all new iOS customers) app and covers a lot of bases for you as a creative — be it recording guitar or any other audio on iPhone or iPad.

Hey all,

I'm currently using GB on my iPadPro, and would like to collaborate with another fellow musician. I'm having a hard time being able to send him a GB project. It says online you can share it to iTunes, then share it from there, however I don't have a computer, I have an iPad Pro....
I have tried email, Dropbox, etc, and it wants to mix the project down to an MP4 before sending. Not what I want....
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

How To Send Garageband Project From Iphone

  • edited September 2016

    one idea would be to share it to iCloud Drive, when you do this it will offer on option to save the project file there. Then go into the iCloud Drive and share the project there via email.

    If it's especially large, iOS should offer the ability to send it via MailDrop

    Additionally you could share it via 'open in', then choose Google Drive...when you do this It also presents the option to send the project file.

    I have tried sending it via email from the iCloud Drive, but it shows up as 0 bytes....also tried to send it to google drive from iCloud, but it says it's uploading, but never does, just hangs up...>

    From GB....Notes,Google Drive, Message, and Messanger....tried google drive, and it just hangs there saying 'uploading'....everything else, it wants to mix down.
    From iCloud no open in options

    Well I just managed it using ifiles2

    But it was a hell of a hassle.

    Unfortunately, your options are pretty limited. Have you tried Apple support? They should be able to help with iCloud/upload issues.

    Otherwise, you're looking at a 3rd party solution like what @BiancaNeve is describing.

    Apple support said to use iTunes....hate to think if you spend $1000 on the iPadPro, I now have to go buy a laptop to transfer files....

    How does ifiles2 work

  • edited September 2016

    Actually forget it. My method worked on iPad Air 2. But the transfer from iCloud on iPad Pro seems to get stuck.

    1st download the app

    iFiles 2 - File Manager, Cloud Storage, PDF Reader by Imagam.com
    https://appsto.re/gb/tBD2bb.i

    Add iCloud Drive as a service

    Open Gagageband App
    Press select
    Select a track
    Press the share button
    Press iCloud Drive
    Select Project

    Select the ifiles folder in iCloud Drive

    Open the ifiles app
    Press the iCloud button. (you should see a folder called whatever you named your song)
    Click on this and press download select local files

    Once the transfer has completed you can zip it and email it or upload to Dropbox one drive etc

  • @BiancaNeve said

    Yes...........
    but how to share it then with others?

    By the way: it is also possible to send a zipped .band file to Dropbox via the free iZip app, without using iCloud Drive. I just did it. But I have no good ideas about sharing it with others. As I understand it iCloud Drive is only about sharing with your own devices. I could send the link of the zipped .band Dropbox file to others, but I can't find a way for them to import the zipped .band file into their GB (without the use of a PC).

  • They need to unzip the .band file and save it to their own iCloud Drive. Then in GB they can just press plus then import from iCloud

  • Good info here for escaping the walled garden. Thank you @BiancaNeve and @Marcel

    Thank you guys for the input!!! I'm going to try it with izip cause it seems like the easiest way... I'll keep you posted if it works....

  • I just tried Izip free on a very simple band file, but it wouldn't zip it because it was too big. But the process of getting it into izip was very simple so I may buy the full version.

    If I remember it correctly: you have to zip the .band map. I first tried to zip all the files within that map, that didn't work, then I tried zipping the map itself, that worked. If it seems you can't select the map then press the file/map above it, then you can select the map.

Since the iPad Pro’s release I was determined to work it into my daily life where my other iPad had never secured a place – I wanted to record guitar, write, and also use it for my 9-5 job. In doing this I found some shortfalls, including the ability to share from GarageBand.

How to share from GarageBand to Google Drive

Garageband is a free (to all new iOS customers) app and covers a lot of bases for you as a creative — be it recording guitar or any other audio on iPhone or iPad.

Google Drive is free and gives you 15GB of online storage out of the box.

Once you have your creation ready and you’re signed into the Google Drive app, just follow these steps to share from GarageBand:

  1. Launch GarageBand on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Once you are at the My Songs page, tap on Select and choose your song.
  3. In the second row of icons, tap on Open In….
  4. Check out all your details and change anything you need to, then tap Share at the top right.
  5. Now choose Google Drive.
  6. Here you can fill in any details, change where you want the file in Drive, and toggle between Google Drive accounts (if you’re signed in to more than one). Once you’re done, tap on Upload.

Garageband How To Use

Note: If you don’t see Google Drive in the share section, you may need to activate the extension by scrolling all the way to the right and tapping More and toggling On the Google Drive option.

If you’ve found other ways to share from Garageband that work well, I’d be interested to know what they are, so let me know in the comments!
