Store your manuals on your iPod iPhone or iPad

Post by mytimac »

I made up a tutorial for people in the pinball machine hobby. But last weekend I helped an RC guy with the same thing. So maybe I should share the same info with the RC world.

Realized I could just load the manuals for my pinball machines into iBooks on my iPhone
and iPod. Now I could carry a whole library of manuals in my pocket if
I want. Makes it easy to quickly look up part numbers.

Here is a fairly deep write up on how to use them on your device.

Thought anyone who is not real computer savvy might find them
helpful. The instructions are for using iBooks, there are other
similar programs for i devices. iBooks is just free and pretty
standard on most Apple devices.

The RC guy I helped is the type who would have never downloaded iBooks on to his iPod. :)

i use "AJI Reader", find it in your appstore

AJI does *not* need to use iTunes (& USB cable) to upload PDFs,
they use a proprietary app on your PC & it syncs via wifi.
