Downloading or Syncing PDF files

Is this possible either from my PC or the web ? Also, I sent an email from my pc to myself with a *.pdf file and it was received on the iPad as a *.dat file. ANy ideas as to why?

I use GoodReader also. If you're on a wireless network GoodReader has a small icon like the WiFi emblem that let's you set up file transfer wirelessly. I love it specifically for PDF.
Once you hit that icon, GoodReader will display an IP address. Then go into your PC, under Network and set up a network connection by typing in the IP address given in GoodReader. This will place a folder on your PC under MyComputer.
Drag and drop your PDF on that folder and it transfers into the GoodReader app.
One thing to remember. I usually create a folder on the desktop of my PC and place any PDF(s) that I want to transfer into that folder by Right Click copying and pasting them into the folder to be transferred. If you don't the file(s) actually transfer OFF your PC into GoodReader.

I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
== When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.

Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

How do you download and open PDF files that come in the email?

I can NOT download or open PDF files. It prompts me to open in IBooks and then it's not there. I am so frustrated. PLEASE HELP!

Touch the attachement once to download it. Then touch it a second time, after it is downloaded ( watch the attachment icon) to open it in quick view. if you want to do something more than just view it, and if you want to save it, Touch and hold the downloaded attachment to get the 'open in' pop up, and any app that supports PDFs, like I books, or any of the other PDF ready apps.
If it is not downloaded yet, it will not be in I books.

Syncing PDF files into my iPad Mini, but will not show in iBooks

I am trying to sync PDF files into my iPad Mini but it will not appear in the iBooks app on my iPad Mini. I have tried to unselect the book and reselect, sync all or sync selected through iTunes.

Please help!
Thanks,
Linda

Why can I no longer download and read .pdf files

I have never had any problems downloading and reading .pdf files until I 'upgraded' the Adobe reader to version 11. Now all attempted downloads fail because "I don't have the necessary helper application or even C:\DOCUME~1\Will-o\LOCALS~1\Temp\Back Channel II - The Vietnam Betrayal - Chaps 1&2.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences. What in the world is going on and how do I fix it?
Under 'Tools - Applications - Adobe Acrobat Document, the I've selected 'Use Adobe Reader.' However since I also have Adobe Acrobat 8.3, I've tried substituting that for the Reader, but that doesn't work either. Please help.

Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

HT5826 how to sync pdf file between iOS and mac

I tried to sync pdf files stored in iBook on my iPad with the iBook on my iMac, but not all the docuemnts are viewable in iBook on iMac and viceversa.
Which is the reason?
Please let me know
Thanks
Luca

I suspect that you haven't synced your iPad with your Mac. iBooks does not "push" new additions to its library automatically, like iCloud does; you must sync your iPad, either with a USB cable, or over WiFi, to have the PDFs sync. Make sure the PDFs are selected in iTunes too.

Can't download or print pdf files

All of a sudden I can't download or print pdf files from Safari. When I try to download the file it says it can't export and then gives file name. I tried changing the file name with the same result. When I try to print, I just get a single blank page. I have reinstalled Safari. I thought it might be a problem with Adobe reader, but that works outside of Safari I did just install reader 10.1.3 and that is when I noticed the problem, but I reinstalled 10.1.1 and still have the same problem. Please help!!
Thanks
Scott

Thank You !!! Even I had the same problem... I used Folx downloader evry time to download the PDF file and open it using preview . Thanks You So much DN Scott & Scorbett.

Download jpeg and pdf files on my iPhone 6

Why can't I download jpeg and pdf files on my iPhone 6?

Download from where? Downloading through Safari may work for images but will not work for other types of files.

Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf files on your ipod touch?

Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf file on your ipod touch (5G)?

There are many apps that allow reading PDFs. GoodReader allows downloading some items. It all depends upon how the site handles the download. It also uses file sharing in iTunes.
iBooks also reads and had file sharing.

HT4059 Can I sync PDF files from my iPhone 4 to my new iPad wirelessly without iTunes?

Can I sync PDF files from my iPhone 4 to my new iPad wirelessly without iTunes

Yes, you can. Just add files to iTunes library (FILE > ADD FILES TO LIBRARY....) and they will appear under Books library.
Connect you device, select the Books tab, and make sure those books or pdf you want them over are being checked, then click the SYNC button on the lower right window.

Unable to sync pdf file

Can some kind soul help me what is the best way to sync pdf file ? Thank you. I have to say that I am really annoyed with my Ipad- there is going to be no more of Apple product for me...I am restricted to do so many things. I wonder why the **** I bought it for..Can't transfer file ising bluetooth, can't use flash site, can't see youtube properly..and now I cannot even read the books that I have in pdf format.

What app are you trying to transfer them to ? If you have the iBooks app on your iPad then you should be able to add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library (they should go into the Books part of your library). You can then sync them to the iBooks app by connecting the iPad to your computer and selecting it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can get the left-hand sidebar to appear via option-command-S on a Mac, Control-S on windows), and then on the right-hand side using the Books tab to select and sync them.
If you are have a different PDF app then how you get the PDFs to it will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, transfer via your wifi network, email, dropbox etc.
There is a YouTube app from google which is now also optimised for the iPad, and there is Jasmine, or you could try accessing the mobile version via Safari : http://m.youtube.com
Flash has never been supported on iOS devices - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it it probably never will be. Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

Yes, and we will have integration with our Mobile Readers as well. We've already submitted to Apple for review, and will be live once they complete their review and approval.
With this, we'll allow you to share files pretty easily between Desktop, Tablet and Phone across all OSes...and when you make changes, we'll automatically bring them to and from your phone/tablet! Pretty cool.

Help~how can I download and upload pdf file in simple solution

I am new doing Portal.
I want to create a page which can provide download pdf file function and other page which can provide upload pfg file function.
I created a link to download file, and implemented uploading files by access the file directory.
Can this solution work in Portal?
I've tried, but I couldn't access file directory through web_dav.
Anyone can give me some suggestion?

You can only install apps (programs) via the App Store app on your iPad, or by downloading them via iTunes store on your computer and then syncing them to your iPad - you can't download and install programs from the internet via a browser, they are not compatible with the iPad.
