i have a large number of PDFs documents stored on a windows pc that I would like to access on my iPad mini even when not connected  to a network. Does anyone know a solution. Eg maybe card reader and a app.

Those devices have mixed results depending on the application. If the application does not support the device, then you are out of luck. There is no file manager in IOS to allow you to move files between folders because there are no folders that you can access. An app has to specifically support a storage location to access files.
It's not that bad. The app has to have the ability to accept data from another app.  The latest memory dongles come with an ios app to access the external storage.  You then transfer the pdf from dongle's app to your app.  If your app can accept data from dropbox, it will be able to accept data from the memory dongle app.

  • I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library.

    I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library.  When I try to move a PDF file to iBooks the system works for a while...sometimes the file appears and than disappears....sometimes the file never appears. Is ther some limit to the number of books or total storage used in IBooks?  Thanks....

    Hi jybravo70, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you may be experiencing issues on your non iOS 8 devices because iOS 8 is required to set up or join a Family Sharing group.
    The following information is located in the print at the bottom of the article. 
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing.
    Have a great day,

    I have a PC desktop and an iPad.  I have a large library of PDF documents on my desktop that I would like to sync with my iPad.  I would like to be able to download new PDF's and make edits on existing PDF's on either device and have those edits and new PDFs synced to the other device.  I would also like to have my library available on the iPad even if there isn't a wifi connection (i.e., not on the cloud).  Is that possible.  I don't mind if I have to purchase a separate product or a product upgrade ect.

    You can't use an external hard drive like you would with a computer.
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
    When you first connect the USB flash drive, you will only see thumbnails of the pics on the iPad; you have to import the pic file to see the full size. With your large library of pics, you will have to do this repeateably and then delete pics so you don't exceed your memory capacity.

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

  • I have an issue with some PDF documents   some MS Office documents, notably MS Word when received in eMail as attachments not displaying on iPhones, iPad 2s

    Hi,
    I have an issue with some PDF documents & some MS Office documents, notably MS Word when received in eMail as attachments not displaying properly on iPhones, iPad 2s & new iPads?
    PDF docs - areas of the doc only show as grey splotches regardles of viewer
    MS Word Docs -
    inserted graphics don't display at all,
    tables & lists especially with borders are broken &
    tables & lists missing the borders &
    tables & lists missing the 1st 1-2 lines of the lists/tables.
    This is replicated on iPhone 4s, iPhone 4Ss, iPad 2s, iPad new (x2)
    It certainly happens in iOS 5.1.1 & iOS 5.1
    We believe it all worked aok in iOS 5.0.1(?) & prior
    There is no problems reading/seeing these PDF & Word docs on anything other than iDevices.
    This is rather critical for us & if not quickly fixed/rectified will prevent us from further purchases of these devices
    Rolling back to iOS 5.0.1 or prior I believe isn't possible because of the BaseBand update(?) & isn't much of an option because of the quite noticeable Battery/Charging/WiFi improvements in 5.1 & 5.1.1

    Hi,
    I logged a call with AppleCare & have since had explained why this occurs (some time ago)
    I'll try to explain what was indicated to me.
    iOS has a limited Font Set & this affects what PDFs can display. You need to use iOS supported fonts in your PDFs to see/read them properly  
    These supported fonts are indicated here => http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4980
    Regards MS office docs, iOS doesn't have much of an API to work with MS Office documents at all so is stuck with 3rd Party Apps to try to do it.
    Unfortunately Mail in/on iOS uses the API to attempt to open/use MS Office attachments unless you tell it to use an App to open the attachment.
    I have had success opening & reading MS office docs now with CloudOn, but find it slow & very awkward to use.
    Not too sure if this helps others, but at least it explains why this is occurring

  • I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
    One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

  • I have a large number of photos I'd like to delete from my ipad 2 however from reading previous comments it seems I have to unsync from the original source computer. I'm in another country now and don't have access to it.  Is there another way?

    You should be able to do this via the iPad directly.  Open the Photos application and the forward arrow, then select all of the photos you want to delete and click the red delete button.

  • Hi, I have a large number of products in one column and prices of the products in another. Most prices are different. I want to know if it is possible to increase all of the prices by 5% or 10% etc. Hope someone can help. From Stiffy

    Hi, This is my first time I hope someone can help.
    I am working with numbers and I have a large number of products in one column and the relevent prices in another. All the prices are different and I want to increase the price of everything by 5% or 10% etc. Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance
    Stiffy123

    Ad a new, temporary column (or one you can hide when not using). Let's say the current Prices are in column C and the new column is D.
    you can inflate the prices in column C by 5% by entering the formula in the first cell of column D as:
    =C2*105%
    likes this:
    to fill down, select D2, then copy, then select the D3 thru the end of the column, then paste.  Now select C2 thru the end of column C, now paste over the existing values using the menu item "Edit > Paste Values"
    you can now hide column D until you need to use it again.

  • Display PDF Documents Stored In Database

    Hi
    I apologise that this question has been asked many times, but I just do not seem to be able to find answer to my question in many other posts over the years.
    We have pdf documents stored in database and wish for client to view from forms session.
    I am able to use webutil_file_transfer.DB_To_Client_With_Progress to transfer to client and open using client_host('cmd /c start '||TheFile);
    I am also able to view pdf documents stored on application server using web.show_document.
    What I would prefer to do is:
    1. Transfer file from database to application server (This is bit I cannot figure out)
    2. Display from application server using web.show_document
    3. Delete temporary file from application server (Also unsure how to do this)
    Our users have thin clients and so in many cases do not have access or unsure where can access to store temporary file if use transfer to client method. Wish to keep temporary file activity on application server.

    You can combine the methods in WEBUTIL. Check this Re: Forms 10G - Saving Blob on Application Server using Java.

  • I can not open PDF document stored in Google drive

    I have down loaded Adobe PDF reader APP (Touch Type) but it is not opening my PDF documents stored in my google drive. It tells me error 403 (forbidden). Could some one explain how I can solve this problem.
    Thanks.
    Rajinder Kanda

    It depends on how you open the PDF documents that are stored in Google Drive.
    Do you access Google Drive via the web browser?  Or do you have a sync client app installed on your device?  Adobe Reader Touch itself does not display the error 403 (forbidden).
    Could you describe the steps that you used to open one of the PDF documents from Google Drive?  How did you choose Adobe Reader Touch to open it?
