All Devices Syncing pdfs to all devices...

[mrgreeneyes]

Hello,

i have 14 pdfs that are in the books app on my macbook. That synced to my iphone se but did not sync to my ipad.
All the settings are the same on both devices.

im not sure what i need to do.
Is there a way to force my ipad to sync the books and pdfs?

I had a problem with research PDFs syncing across devices a while back, but have not had any issues in a while. I would locate them with my Mac, add them to Books and then later pick up iPad to read them, but they would occasionally not arrive / sync.

im[sic] not sure what i need to do.

Patience. The fix is just around the corner.

Is there a way to force my ipad to sync the books and pdfs?

I 'forced' the sync by dropping the pdf in a temp iCloud folder location. Then on iPad, locate PDF in Files > Add to Books.

FWIW, I've used Acrobat Reader (free) and Adobe (free) Document Cloud for years to keep/access my pdf. files across multiple Apple devices.
No problems for years.

FWIW Adobe has been dead to me for 10+ years.

Whatever.
FWIW, I don't use flash, tho.

Whatever.

Adobe, as a company, has been negligent and incompetent on level rarely seen and only recently matched by Zoom.

Adobe Creative cloud causing huge battery drain issues!

I had been looking to get Adobe XD and so installed it to my surface book 2. Since then I noticed that I had a huge battery drain occurring even when the laptop was in sleep mode! I literally went from 100% down to 76% in the space of a morning without ever even opening the lid of the laptop...

Just a little FWIW, in case did not know. Also a small warning to the OP, whom you recommended the abhorrent company.

That’s good to know.
Since I don’t use Creative Cloud on my portable devices and only use Photoshop and Lightroom Classic (local storage only) on my iMac, battery life is not an issue that I have encountered.
As for data breaches, Adobe isn’t the largest, and they did not leak financial data.
‘Equifax with 163 Million breached user files would worry me more.
FaceBook, which I never used has had almost 1 Billion users’ data lost.
Yahoo approaching 4 Billion!
