How do i rename a pdf in ibooks in ios 8

I used to be able a pdf in ios 7 in ibooks by selecting the file and then editing the name. Seems to be not possible in ios 8.
Help please.

Thanks so much - it was driving me mad. It's NOT intuitive to tap to the right of the filename after hitting select. If you hit the filename it opens the file!
thanks again.

How do I rename the PDF (both Title & Author) in new ibooks for Mavericks?

Hi!
I can't seem to amend both Title and Author for my PDFs in the new ibooks App in Mavericks.
(Opening it in Preview and renaming it does not change the Author name FYI)
The current solutions present are for 2013 and there is none for the new app in Mavericks.
My obsessiveness does not allow me to list my books in such haphard fashion.
Any kind souls able to help?
Thank you!

LOL! As you've explained it, the reason this community is called iBook for Macs is because you can easily change PDF titles on a Mac…
I know that people like to be gatekeepers--and I know that people can post in the wrong places--but that's not what happened here. I was correcting the previous comment about iBooks on the iPads! (See earlier post above.)
"iBooks.app on iPads or Maversick is a "viewing" app ie it allows you to open books etc,. on the device its used on. Its "read only" in computing terms.. you cannot change anything."
I wanted to do it by not directly pointing out the person's error, but you've forced my hand!
By the way, I ended up at this thread inadvertently while looking for how to change book titles in iBooks under iOS. So, in case anyone else ends up here looking for how to change PDF titles on their iPads, they'll know it can be done and how!
Happy Labor Day, everyone!

How can I open a PDF in iBooks on iPhone 5s?

I have PDFs in iBooks. When I try to open them it says I should open them with Adobe Reader. I downloaded Adobe Reader but can't seem to get the PDFs to open with it.
I found a previous thread saying that you can't use Adobe Reader with iBooks, but that was before the 5s came out, so I'm starting a new thread. If you can't open a PDF from iBooks with Adobe Reader, why is it telling me to use Adobe Reader? And how else can I open it?
This shows what happens when I try to read my PDF, and click on the icon that's supposed to let me open it in Adober Reader:

This particular file is a PDF Portfolio, which needs Flash to display correctly. When you open a PDF Portfolio in the Adobe Reader mobile it will open in list view to get around the fact that Flash isn't supported on iOS. So, it won't open properly in a native viewer on iOS only within the Adobe Reader.

Syncing PDFs between iBooks and iOS devices

Hello everyone,
I just ordered an iPad Air. I wanted one for a long time, and one of the things that I am most after is the ability to read PDF documents anywhere I want. I have been organizing my eBooks and PDFs in iBooks, and I was under the impression that this meant I would be able to see the collection on my iOS devices and download them to those devices when I needed them. But I guess it's not that simple, is it?
As I don't yet have the iPad with me, I have been trying to sync what I see in iBooks to my iPhone 4S, but I only see one mqtching book on both the Mac and the iPhone, and that's one book purchased from iBooks itself. Then there's one free ebook that was also downloaded inside iBooks, from the computer, but does not show in the iPhone. Adding to this, none of the PDFs I have organized inside iBooks will show up on the iPhone.
Am I doing something wrong? Any of you successfuly organizing ebooks and PDFs in iBooks and seeing them on your iOS devices? What should I try?
I'm on the latest Mavericks update and all the mentioned apps are updated. Also, the iPhone is running the latest update of iOS7.
Thank you so much.

Well, nevermind. It suddenly decided to start syncing, somehow! Not sure what I did to make it work though.
Anyway, this is still not what I was expecting. The only way to synchronize what I have in iBooks with the iOS devices, is through iTunes, and I need to be in the same network, right?
I thought this would be something more like iTunes Match, where I could have all my ebooks and PDFs up in the Cloud and download them to my devices whenever I needed them.
Do you know if there's any app providing this type of system?
Thanks a lot.

How do I rename my PDF file in the "new" DC mobile app.

What a mess. Adobe decided to push the new "DC" on my tablet. Now there is no document tab, all my PDF files are gone or in-accessible, and I can find no option to rename new downloaded PDF files. Complete revamp really was a good idea, right? Just when I getting used to working around the KitKat 4.4 SD card issue, now this. I'm going back to paper and pencils!!! This is so incredibly PRODUCTIVE, learning a whole new buggy interface after so many years of getting comfortable with "Reader".... I don't need or want the cloud, I just want to work with my documents on my tablet - THEN, let me decide what I want to do with them. Sorry, I am just so frustrated with having to completely RE-LEARN how to do something so basic every time some software gets "improved", or "updated".

Could you try if this video helps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTrTPR9LEq8.
Also, for renaming the document, you would need to use a third party file manager such as AndExplorer or ES File Manager.
Thanks.

How do i add a pdf to ibooks

I subscribe to the digital edition of Photoshop Elements Techniques magazine, and I download it as a pdf on my MacBook Pro. I would like to use iBooks as an easy way to read pdf's on both my MBP and my iPad. When I try to drag a PET isisue to iBooks, or import it from within iBooks, I get an error message saying it is not the right format. I have done it in the past, and have also added recipes I have saved as a pdf and successfully added them to iBooks, but cannot remember the how i did it .
I realize I want to use iBooks is a way that it is perhaps not intended to be used, but this is a really good way to collect pdfs in one place to use across my devices. If someone knows of a better way, I'm all ears. Thanks for your help!

Control click the pdf > Open in ... iBooks. It is possible that the pdf you are having trouble adding to iBooks is incompatible with it, but most pdfs can be added. I've never struck a pdf yet that can't be opened in iBooks.

How can i mark books (pdf) in iBooks on my iPad?

Hello,
I am using the new update - and Mavericks on my Macbook. I want to synchronize those marks and annotations, but i don't know how to make an annotation or marks in iBooks on my iPad -
please help! thank you!

I've been looking at this today also, unfortunately it looks like there is no option in iBooks either in Mavericks or iOS to annotate and sync those notes via iCloud, when the book is in PDF format (despite the implication that you can). Best I have found, is that bookmarks sync between iOS devices, but not to Mavericks.
The annotation option is not present in iOS, and the PDF just opens in Preview in Mavericks, rather than iBooks.
I found this workaround helped:
1) Convert the PDF to ePub format - you can easily do this here for free: http://ebook.online-convert.com/convert-to-epub
2) Add the converted ePub book to iBooks on Mavericks. (Add to Library from the File menu)
3) Sync the book to iOS using iTunes in the normal way (the ePub book will automatically appear under Books in iTunes)
4) You can now annotate by selecting the text in the book (in either Mavericks or iOS) and these changes push via iCloud provided this is all setup normally. In iBooks on Mavericks, you may need to Authorise the computer.
5) Then to annotate In iOS, highlight the text, the popup menu gives the option to add notes.
Hope this helps

How do I print to PDF in safari for iOS?

When I shop on my MacBook, I like to save my receipts as a PDF. This way I can easily search and consult them later, and don't have to go to the trouble of physically printing and filing them. How do I do this when I make the purchases in Safari on my iPad 2? So far, I've only identified 3 options, none of which really meets my needs:
1) Take a screen shot of the receipt page. This is unacceptable because the image file is not searchable the way a PDF is, and also because I can't always fit everything on one screen, meaning two images or more are necessary for one receipt.
2) Make all my purchases through a 3rd party program like Print2PDF. Unfortunately, this means giving up use of Safari whenever I want to shop.
3) Print out a paper copy of the receipt. Ick.
Is there a feature or option I'm missing? I just want to select Share > Print in Safari and be able to select Print to PDF.
Thank you.

The PDF port is not sharable between systems, not even on the same machine. You'd need to buy a second copy of Acrobat for use in the virtual machine.
