PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?

PDF from Mac to iBooks on iPad - how?
Before iBooks for Mac came along I simply dragged my PDF to iTunes and synced my iPad. I foolishly installed Mavericks and iBooks on my Mac.
Now I have no idea how to drop PDF's to my iPad.
There is a support article but no helpful at
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4227?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
What must I do? I simply want Apple drag 'n drop functionality back please.

You should be able to add the PDF to the iBooks app on your Mac via File > Add To Library, and if you then connect your iPad to your Mac and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your Mac's iTunes then it should show on the iPad's Books tab for syncing to your iPad's iBooks app.
Or you can email the PDF to yourself and use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPad to copy it into the iBooks app.

  • Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks.  I have to shut down y iPad and start again.  Any suggestions?

    Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks.  I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system.  Any suggestions?

    It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
    Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.

  • I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  Thanks for any ideas!

    On my iPad, I'm trying to open a PDF from Safari with iBooks, but when I choose "Open with ..." in Safari, only Pages and Dropbox show as options.  I'm running iOS 7.1.2 and iBooks 3.2.  I have rebooted the iPad and that did not help, and reinstalled iBooks, which also changed nothing.  Thanks for any ideas!

    Yup, it was uploaded to our school Wiki as a PDF, and Pages did open it.  I was then able to move it to iBooks, but I'd rather avoid the extra steps.

    Did you select the Pages app to sync to the iPad? Do you know how to do that or do you auto sync and rely on that only?

  • Sending pdfs from Mac Mail to Outlook

    I have users that are sending pdfs from mac mail to outlook and the attachements are not going through.  All you see is the paperclip and nothing else.  This has just started happening.  I am telling the users to send emails as plain text with windows friendly attachement as well as to put the attachment in the email.  Anyone have any idea how to fix this.  There are some unhappy users.
    Thank you for the help
    Jeff

    Outlook for Mac has no option to import from Apple's Mail application. The best suggestion I can offer is that you use an IMAP account to transfer your messages.
    Get a free Gmail IMAP account from Google and connect to the account in Mail. Drag your messages into the account to copy them to the server.
    Connect to the same account in Outlook and copy your messages from the server to folders under On My Computer.
    Another option is to get a third party tool that are available online.
    One tool that I am familiar with is Apple Mail Export
    Or you can find more on
    google or
    yahoo for more results
    Hope this helps!

    Further to my last post re uTube  for ipad i have just found information on Buzz Player HD  as an app to play videos  on my ipad.    Apparently it plays all downloaded  u Tube in any format?.
    If  you feel this is a good idea. Please explain what part vimeo u Tube app will  be the scheme of things.
    I apologise for silly questions - but I am not very technical and very confused about what some similar apps will do or not do and their overlap. What I need is an app that will do the necessary and delete the the unnecessary.

  • Combining PDFs from MACs and PCs

    Is there a way to effortless combine fairly large pdfs created on MACs and on PCs (usually containing images and tables)? We have had terrible problems with this, including image  and caption distortion, etc. Sometimes, we are unable to create pdfs on a PC if we are sent a Word document created on a MAC.
    Any advise could be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Steve

    If I print to PDF, nothing at all happens.
    If I try to do a Save As, I get the following message:
    “The export failed. The document could not be prepared for exporting.”
    If I right click on the file name and use Convert to Adobe PDF, it will start the process and then stop and return to the Word document.

  • How do I transfer a PDF from my laptop to my iPad

    Want to transfer an Adobe PDF training document from my laptop to my iPad. How?

    How do you want to?
    Email it?
    Or drop it into DrobBox?
    Or use Evernote?
    Or GoodReader?
    Or use the iTunes file transfer features?
    Or ... < fill in the blank > ...... any other?
    Bottom line: There are many many different ways to do it but almost all are going to involve one app or another. That's just how things are done in iOS.

  • HT4059 I used to be able to transfer PDFs from Dropbox to iBooks but now the file appears for about 1 second and then disappears - any ideas?

    Can anyone help? I want to transfer PDF files from Dropbox to iBooks but when I do, the file appears for about 1 second then disappears. I used to Beatle to do this with no problems, but now it doesn't work. Help!

    I had the same problem.  After numerous attemps to Restore from Itunes, I decided to use the "Setup as New Ipad" option. It went through a few question on new setups. Afterwards all my apps, data, photo's were still intact. Which shows that the Restore from Itunes worked. There must be a small bug that prevents the Ipad to open after "Restore from Itunes" .  Hope it will help you.
