![]() I download Adobe Reader, but it doesn't install because my OS isn't completely up to date. ![]() When I open this "link" on the Kindle app, it turns out that it had turned my 600 page pdf into just 2 pages, one of which just has that weird custom title and the second page just a blurry cropped image of the first page of the pdf. ![]() To send it to the Kindle, I have to create a "link" with some weird custom name. So it's impossible to read my pdfs while taking notes unless I want to squint or manually zoom in the whole time. I transfer them easily, but do you know what happens next? Books automatically zooms out of the pdf, filling no more than 50% of the screen when multitasking with Pages. I want to transfer my pdfs to the Books app. ![]() This is where things really start to go loco. I upload my files, re-install Dropbox on the iPad, sign in, and in a second all my files are on the iPad. So next I decide to try Dropbox, which I haven't used for a while. When I finally open a pdf in Google Drive, it turns out that the Google Docs interface is so chunky that I just can't use it. So I have to go through the hassle of signing in. The links open in Safari, where Google isn't signed in since I don't use it often. So I do it, but because the files are apparently a bit too big, they get sent as Google Drive links. So next I try emailing my pdfs to myself, because that's my next instinct to transfer files. Maybe my cord is botched or my software is slightly out of date in any case, I gotta try something new. I know I can't do this with file explorer like I would with a USB stick or hard drive, but I figured I'd see if I could still do it with iTunes.īut when I plug in my iPad into my PC, even though the iPad and iTunes and my PC recognize each other, somehow the verification doesn't complete and iTunes can't transfer anything to the iPad. I don't transfer files on my iPad very often (every few years), and my instinct is to just plug it into the PC and copy the files over when I'm transferring files. To do so, I needed to upload my pdfs onto my iPad again because no other app will read the files on Google Play. But today I realized that Google Play had turned my 7 MB pdfs into 1.3 GB monsters. Until very recently, I was using Google Play Books to read the pdfs, because I like its simple interface. I have a 2018 iPad, which is still running perfectly. This method really works well for me, and makes good use of the iPad's advantages.
