Best way to view Text files from Mac on iPhone 4?

What is the Best way to view Text files (loaded) from my Mac onto my iPhone 4?
Will any of the "readers" (e.g. Kindle, Kobo) allow me to put my own text files onto my iPhone and read them easily?
Thanks

I actually purchased GoodReader because it is easy to transfer files without iTunes.  I dislike the file sharing through iTunes.   You can use a Mac or PC.  Once I was in the app I clicked the "Wi-Fi" symbol which brings me to "WiFi-transfer."  It will show this --
"WiFi status: ON
Use one of the following addresses exactly as you see them
1. IP-address: http://192.168.0.98:8080 <-- Local LAN address the iPhone is broadcasting on.
2. Bonjour-address http://Myname-iPhone.local:8080"
All you have to do is type one of those addresses into your browser. (Safari, etc.)
It will take you to a page that has iPhone Connection and a list of options.  You can either create a new directory within the application or use an existing one to upload a text file.  It's rather simple, you just select "Choose a file to upload" > Select your file > Press upload > Start the app and see your text/pdf/whatever file.
You can also connect to a server to download a text file, browse the web, or enter a url.  I see it also has an ICloud folder which I'm not sure if it integrates with Apple's iCloud or not, I think it does.  I'm not affliated with the app and I'm not saying you have to buy it, I'm just a happy user.
If you don't want to buy this app let me know I'll keep looking for a free or cheaper one for you if you want.

  • Best way to handle text files in OD10g

    We have a requirement to store reports in text format into a database field, to be able to view the reports, and to print them if desired using Forms 10g. What is the best way to handle this?
    - define the field in the database as clob or blob?
    - if CLOB is the choice, what tools to use to upload CLOBs to the database (since webutil transfer is for blob only)?
    - in Forms 10g, can one use the Forms data type LONG for CLOB?
    - can you do Forms search on clob and blob fields?
    - how can reports that are stored in fields be viewed without first downloading to the client workstation?
    - in Forms 10g, what is the best way to view text files residing in local PCs: "host notepad myFile"?
    Thanks much for your reply!

    Take a deep breath. Relax. All is fine.
    iDVD does not look at the size of your video file, it looks at the length. iDVD can accomodate up to 2 hours of movie
    iDVD gives you different options depending on the length of your movie. Although I won't agree with your friend about reducing the length of your movie to 15 minutes, if you could trim out a few minutes to get it under an hour that setting in iDVD (Best Performance though the new version may have renamed it) gives you the best quality. Still, any iDVD setting will give you good quality even at 64 minutes
    In FCE export as Quicktime Movie NOT any flavour of Quicktime Conversion. Select chapter markers if you have them. If everything is on one system unchecked the Make Movie Self Contained button. Drop the QT file into iDVD

  • Best way to create SVG file from drawing application?

    I am developing a drawing application that allow the users to draw and edit static two dimensional images such as Rectangles, Ellipses and Text. I have a superclass SVGShape that contains all the common features of a shape such as x1, x2, color etc. I then have SVGRectangle as a subclass of SVGShape.
    I want to know what would be the best way to create an SVG file from this? An idea I have at the minute is to have an abstract method getSVG() in the SVGShape class, and then implement the method in the subclasses. I will then create a new class called SVGManager which iterates through the list of shapes (Btw I'm using MVC, my shapes are stored in a Collection) and uses the getSVG() mehtod in each shape to build up a SVG file.
    What do you think of this? Any better ideas?
    Thanks guys

    I used a visitor for this in a similar project, so that when the svg library is used in a applet or browser and the writing functionality isn't required, it may be omitted from the bundle.

  • What the best way to create XML files from JAVA application?

    Hi to all,
    I need to edit and to create new filex in format of xml. I know to parse, but what would be the best way to do:
    1. - Create new file, create like simle text file, or there is some clases that know to do it in more simple way
    2.a - Edit XML file, to take some data and add it to the XML in the place I want to.
    2.b - Also Edit, but not to add fields, just update some of them.
    Code examples or links to samples woul be welcomed.
    Best regards, Nick.

    I have tried working with XML directly using the Java classes but this was a pain. I then looked at DOM4J and JDOM and found JDOM easier to use.

  • Best way to read text files at multiple production sites

    Need to write a solution to read txt files that contain binary data on multiple SQL Servers. I have no control over the SQL servers, they are not mine. Thinking of BULK INSERT or bcp. But must something on the server be turned on for it to work? What are
    some other production solutions for reading files and loading the data into a SQL table?

    Hello,
    I think the best way is create a SSIS package to import data into SQL Server tables. Here are some articles for your reference:

  • Best way to transfer Word files from imac to ipad2

    I have certain Word for Mac files which I would like to transfer to my iPad2 so that I can read them when traveling. What's the best way to accomplish this?

    You're gonna need an application called Pages (Apple's Word). It's around about 12 bucks on each iTunes Store.
    Once you have the app on the iPad you use a feature called File Sharing. File sharing is found in the Apps section of the iPad if you scroll to the bottom.
    When at the File Sharing section you should see Pages on the left. Click on Pages.
    To the Right-hand side you should see to buttons. Add and Save To. Click on Add
    Choose your file you want in the computer and then Ok.
    Sync the iPad.
    Once thats done there should be a little Arrow to the bottom of Pages which imports the documents to the app.

  • Best way to regularly share files between mac and pc?

    Hi
    I'm starting uni this year and want to get all preppred and ready to go. Just wondering the best way I can go about sharing files between my iMac and the universities library computers (which I assume will be PC)?
    I currently use Word for Mac 2008 but am considering upgrading to Word 2011 or Pages before I start classes and for file sharing I hear Evernote or iCloud are the best options but if all else fails, I'll probably just go with a simple USB.
    Currently Own:
    - iMac
    - iPhone 5
    - Word for Mac 2008
    Considering
    - Word for Mac 2011
    - Pages
    - Evernote
    - iCloud
    - USB
    Let me know if you have any advice,
    Thanks

    Not too sure what you mean, sorry... but I will try and explain a little further.
    I'll be creating documents at school on a library PC computer, then wanting to access them at home on my iMac and vice versa.
    I had the idea that I would be able to save them to a web-based file sharing site but I've since learnt Evernote has to be downloaded to both the public PC and personal iMac and that probably isn't possible.

  • Best way to move Onenote files from offline file location.

    We have a majority of our users now on Win 7 using Office 2010.
    We have redirected folders with offline files syncing Included in this location is the OneNote files.
    After starting to investigate Win 8.1 Update 1 and office 2013. We noticed the message OneNote 2013 throws up about issues with having OneNote files included in the Offline files location (The first version to offer this message). And have started to notice
    issues with users OneNote files corrupting etc.
    Almost certainly from the Offline files syncing and OneNote's own in built cache\syncing abilities. 
    We investigated excluding *.one files from offline syncing but quickly eliminated this because users then wont be able to create any further *.one files in this location.
    My two questions are-
    1) How bad could the issues with corruption of OneNote files get if they stay in their current location? We are concerned the more our users get to know how useful OneNote is the more issues we will get.
    2) Is there an easy way to move the OneNote files to another network location for multiple users with least disruption to them as possible?

    To move the notebook, take one of the following actions:
    From On the File menu, click Share, and then click
    Copy this notebook to OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive) or SharePoint.
    Right-click the notebook, click Properties, and then click
    Change Location.

  • Best way to transfer old files from iBook to iMac?

    About two years ago, my key lime iBook died. Since it was pretty well used, I bought a G5 iMac and didn't worry much about the old laptop. I now want to get files from my iBook to my G5. I replaced the power input board and got the machine to start without incident.
    I purchased a firewire to use Target Disk mode to get the files I want, but I'm having trouble making the two machines talk. The iMac can see the iBook and can tell me how much memory is left, but I can not pull up any specific files. The cursor spins and the finder is useless until I give up and disconnect the iBook.
    My iBook is still using 9.0.4 while my iMac has 10.4.8. I think this gap could be the problem, but I'm not sure what to do about it.
    Is there something I'm missing about TDM? Thanks for the help!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Your iBook does not support Target Disk Mode:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Probably you have to take apart your iBook (quite easy):
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/50.0.0.html
    Then you can put the HD in a external enclosure and back-up your stuff.
    The HD will fit in any USB or FireWire 2.5 inch IDE (or ATA) enclosure.
    All this seems difficult, but it is easy!
    Hopefully this is helpfull or solved your problem.

  • How can I upload .pdf file from Mac to iPhone or is there an app for that?

    How can I upload a .pdf file from my mac to iPhone 3G?
    Or is there an app that will allow me to that?
    Thanks in advance
    Zia

    The app called "Air Sharing" allows you to do that. Connect to a wifi network, run the program and you can mount your iphone as a drive using Finder. Upload all the PDFs you like, and you can open them from within the Air Sharing app. Also, you can view most image files, most office files, etc.

  • Transfer I file from Mac to iphone so I can email it

    When traveling recently I was unsuccessful at transferring a file from my mac to my iphone so I could email it (there was no wifi available for my mac)... I tried bluetooth and my USB connection... couldn't figure it out.
    So, is there a way to take a file (on a mac that's not on wifi) and transfer it to an iphone so it can be emailed?

    If you create a wi-fi network using your MacBook and then have the iPhone join that network, you can use one of the file transfer apps to copy the file from your MacBook to the iPhone.
