Transfer PDF files in iBooks from ipad to iMac

I want to free up some space on my ipad by moving some PDF files I have saved in iBooks onto my iMac. Any ideas? I can't seem to be able to do it in iTunes.
Thanks.

When I don't have my computer available, I do this by emailing the PDF to myself then open it from whichever device I need (open in iBooks)

  • How to change the name of a pdf file in iBooks on ipad

    I have a number of appliance and tool manuals  as pdf files uploaded to my iPad. In order to identify them easier I would like to change the names of the files. I changed them in iTunes on my computer but they do not change on the iPad2 when I sync. Is there a  way to do this?

    Greg,
    I had been working on this a while and found what worked.  Save the pdf to your desktop with the file name as you want it.  Open up itunes on half of your monitor.  Drag the file to the library section of itunes (music, videos, books, movies etc...).  When you drag to the library section, it will put it the book section of itunes.  Sync and you will see the file in ibooks on your ipad.  Give it shot.

  • I have many PDF files in iBooks for iPad 2. How can I get those files to sync with iPhone 5?

    I Have many categories of my work brochures stored in PDF format in iBooks. iPad 2 running iOS 6. I'd like to be able to view those same PDF files on my iPhone 5. Is this possible to do over the iCloud ?
    i Cannot do it via iTunes because my MacBook is 10.5.8 and apparently is not capable of getting iTunes 10.7

  • How do I transfer PDF's in iBook from one device to another?

    Backed up old iPad 2 on Mac. Restored to new iPad 2. At first all iBook books and saved PDF collection in iBook was there for maybe 5 seconds. The PDF's suddenly disappeared, while the books are still there! Can't see PDF's, although they are still in iBook on the old iPad 2! Any ideas appreciated.

    I see the PDF files in the books tab of iTunes. The PDFs were not visible in the books tab of my device.
    The sync directions said to click on the books tab. I selected the PDF button. I selected all the PDFs.
    I opened sync my iPad.under files/devices and clicked on "my iPad".
    The progress bar rapidly went through 1,2,3 of something appearing to be doing what I wanted but no files transferred.
    I repeated the above several times.
    Those were the directions under help for ios7.02
    What did I do incorrectly?

  • Is it possible to restore pdf files in ibooks from a back up (not sync!) ?

    HI   I've never synced my ibooks app but i did a backup.   Since i lost all my pdf files, is it possible to restore them from a back up?   Thanks for reading this.

    You have asked this same question three different times now. If the PDF files did not appear when you restored form the backup, I'm sorry, but they are gone.

  • Ibooks from Ipad to Imac

    How can I get all of my PDF files on my Ipad to the Macbook via IBooks?

    I figured it out (for me anyway) for syncing via USB or WiFi.
    My PDFs in iBooks Mac weren't showing up in iBooks iOS & this is how I fixed it - it's syncing seamlessly now
    I went to iTunes for Mac
    Clicked on my device e.g. iPad
    Clicked on 'Books' from along the menu that says 'Summary - Apps - Tones' etc.
    Ticked the 'Sync Books' checkbox
    Selected the 'All books' button, making sure that under the menu ('Books') I had selected 'Books and PDF files'
    And then pressed the sync button at the bottom right of iTunes. It worked.
    It's a 'set it and forget it solution' - after doing this I no longer need to interact with iTunes for syncing PDFs & books. Even when I rename collections on iBooks Mac, it transfers seamlessly across to iBooks on my iPad/iPhone via Wi-Fi.
    Hope that helps - it certainly wasn't obvious to me.
    Best,
    Haider

  • How do I transfer PDF files from PC to IPAD using Itunes 12.1.2.  Previous versions let me drag file in Itunes to Ipad and files appeared under Ibook but can't get it to work in latest 12.1.2 version.

    How do I transfer PDF files from PC (Windows 7) to IPAD using Itunes 12.1.2.  I would like to do files manually rather then auto synch.  Previous versions let me drag file in Itunes to Ipad and files appeared under Ibook and then I could move them to an appropriate collection title.  The interface appears to have changed in the latest ITunes version and I am not sure what the proper procedure is.

    King_Penguin - Thanks it worked perfectly.  I had my pdf files copied into ITunes on my PC but when I clicked on a pdf file to copy it I thought the sidebar would appear with my IPAD name and then I would drag it over.  I didn't realize that I needed to click-and start dragging it towards the left-hand side for the sidebar to appear.  It worked like a charm - THANKYOU!!!

  • I installed the Adobe Reader on my ipad from the app store. I bought a subscription to transfer pdf files to word, excel. No Russian language in the settings. This is very bad!

  • Transfer pdf file from mac to ipad

    How to transfer pdf file from mac to ipad without using the internet and with the help of the cable?

    You say without using the internet, then the only way left is to use a USB connection to itunes on your computer.
    If you have a pdf reader app on the ipad (you must if you hope to read pdf files on the ipad), then go into the Apps tab in iTunes (for your device)  and find the pdf reader app in the list.  If there, then drag a pdf file from the mac to the panel in iTunes and then sync.  Once on the ipad, you should be able to open the pdf reader app and access the pdf file.

    If the Mac use Lion (10.7) you can use Airdrop for that.
    With Mac's not using Lion you may set up a computer to computer (ad hoc) connection.
