How can I download files from my PC to my new I-Pad? Mainly PDF files. The manual doesn't make sense to me...

I have read the manual on how to transfer a file from a computer to my I-Pad. It says in I-Tunes, go to devices Apps pane...
I open the I-Tunes App and can not find anything referencing an Apps pane.
What am I missing?

You connect your device to your comptuer and open iTunes. Once it 'sees' the ipad, you can click on the name of your device and then you should see the tabs. In the Apps tab is your interface to remove apps, also to use the file transfer protocol - if your app supports that - to move files from your computer to your iPad. You can also use this interface to move the app icons from menu page to menu page on your device.
First, to use that apps tab, you'll need an app that'll read PDF files.
The file structure on an iPad is different than that from a computer or Mac. There is no general 'overall' file manager. Every file on your iPad needs to be associated with an app. So to read PDF files, you'll first need to install an app. iBooks will read PDF files. as will ReaddleDocs. I also see goodreader recommended a lot. So just search for PDF reader and find one that looks good to you.
Install the app. After the app is installed, you can go to the apps tab and move files onto your device.

  • How can I download songs from my PC to my new Mac?

    I am having trouble transfering the songs from my PC to my Mac. I was told that I can use iCloud but I'm not sure how to do that. Can someone please help me?

    Hi bkokomoor!
    I have a couple of articles here that will provide you with some options for moving your music from your old PC to your new Mac. The first outlines a couple of different methods for getting your iTunes library onto your new computer, and can be found here:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    As you hinted at earlier, you can also use the cloud to re-download all of your previously purchased items from the iTunes Store on your new Mac. An article about doing that can be found here:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    You can also choose to migrate a large swath of your data from your old PC to your new Mac, including your iTunes library, by using a program built into your Mac called Migration Assistant:

    Take care, enjoy your new Mac, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I download music from my iphone to my new computer?

    My old computer died and I got a new computer and want to download all of my music from my iphonne to my computer.  How do I do this?  I can't figure it out.  Please help!

    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion. Have you failed to do this?

  • My hard disc has failed how can I download data from my ipod to a new hard  disc?

    my hard disc has failed how do i transfer the data on my Ipod/Ipad to a new hard disc?

    In addition to the comments above, when you create a new library with the media that you recover this will be treated as "new" for the device and iTunes may want to wipe it and start over, losing any personal data and settings. The following approach ought to help.
    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to your iTunes installation
    Transfer your purchases into a library authorized to your account
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer (same as above)
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

  • How can I download images from website with Automator?

    Hi!
    I want to ask how can I download images from website with Automator like here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQm7Xr9jY0w&t=85m15s (in 1:25:15).
    I want to download these images to my downloads folder. Some things have changed and I can't find exact options as then. When I am trying to make it it shows "The action "Download URLs" was not supplied with the required data."
    I am using 2012 late iMac with Mac OSX 9.2 (Mavericks).

    There are two apps that I know of - and I would also swear that they come from the same developer, although they've different names. Both have free trials and both cost $40 (but both do 'other' video conversion as well).
    One is WonderShare - I bought this one and it works very well for downloading YouTube videos as well as converting just about any file format you can think of.
    The other is iSkysoft Video Converter (just noticed that it's now $36).
    I tried them both and finally decided on WonderShare. Give them both a trial run and decide if you like either one enough to buy it. I don't know of any 'free' software that will allow you to download and convert YouTube videos, but perhaps someone else will come along and know of something...
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • How can i download keynotes from my iMac to my macbook air

    how can i download keynotes from my iMac to my macbook air

    Do you mean the application Keynote or projects you have already created in Keynote on the iMac?
    If it's the latter just copy the files across the network to the Air. If it's the application itself and you bought it from the Mac App Store you can legally install it on any computer registered to you (I think there is a limit, but I'm not sure how many it is). Just log on to the Mac App Store from the MacAir and download it again - you won't be charged a second time.
    Edit: Just realised you may mean keynotes of various Apple events - if so, ignore me . If this is what you want, have a look here: http://www.apple.com/apple-events/

  • How can i download music from my computer to my i phone

    how can i download music from my computer to my i phone?

    If the music you are wanting to have on your iphone was purchased through itunes you can then go to your front display to settings>itunes and app store from there you have a toggled switch that allows you to automatically download music and apps by toggling the switch. You will need to toggle the switch below these switchs that allows for cellular data to be enabled if this has not already been enabled. This then will automatically download music and apps directly to your device with no additional charge to you.
    Good luck.
