(iPad Pro 11" 4 generation) unable to send large photo albums to file to export to usb

Hi,

I am trying to save a large photo album of 3357 photos to file so I can export to a usb, every time I select all the photos and press send it comes up with the option to save to file, I click on save to file, the timer comes up and once its loaded the timer disappears, If I go to files its empty. I have tried to do it with 1 file and it's the same outcome. I hope you can help

How much free space do you have? If I go to Settings>General>iPad Storage, mine says "193GB of 512GB used." What does yours say?


Do you use iCloud Photos? Do you have "Optimize Storage" turned on? I don't remember iPad models-- do you have a lighting port or a USB-c port?
