Okay My 80 year old neighbour bought an ipad Since it is his birthday tomorrow I thought I would download a shitload ebooks for him to read as he likes to read a lot.
And they are all currently in mobi format on my pc 5.5 gigs of them.
SO here I thought this is easy I will simply stick the ipad in my pc and transfer all the files over but nooooo that is not possible. The only way to do it it seems is to fucking email each fucking file over you fucking piece of shit apple crap! ffffuuuuu.

What the fuck you talking about? Took me 10 seconds to find out Amazon's Kindle app for iPad supports the MOBI format. So just download that, then open iTunes and transfer your books from there. Laughing

Tried that but kindle app wants to be registered =/ And this is not my Ipad Iam not used to apple crap so it is super annoying that I cannot simply transfer files via the usb cable. Like you know any other normal device can.

I am all for a bit of apple bashing, but even the most simple of people must realize that in order to do this (with Apple) you need to install iTunes.

Jesus fucking wept, can't you just install iTunes and use calibre.

it's it really this complicated with an iPad? I thought Apple shit was supposed to be simple.

Iam sorry iam not a pro apple basher But Iam used to simply be able to dump files onto a device by dragging and dropping and read them with any app you would like this is something that is simply not allowed with this ipad it seems.

You can register your own Apple account and download Kindle app with that. Then just sign out.

"Read them with any app you would like" - right, as if this is true about Android. Every app out there supports your particular "MOBI" format. Rolling Eyes

There's absolutely nothing complex about it mate. iTunes, download Kindle (free), drag'n'drop your books onto the Kindle app under "Documents" in iTunes .. sync.. done.

apple products are designed for sheep and the elderly and the toddlers. you get an idevice you can learn how to use it in like 5 minutes. everything you need to know.

so its understandable a non-idiot would have trouble with his first idevice. i mean you're exposed to windows all your life and one day they throw osx at you. Laughing


but leo tried to help him and he raged like a windows user.... so yes... mental handicap

If he was to ask like a normal person how to do it, the thread would have gone in a completely different way. But him posting bullshit the way he did, while not even giving it 1 minute of Google, I'd say he came out of it pretty easy.

Thanks guys you are all awesome and super intelligent. But yes I finally got it to work it took half a day which could have been done in 5 minutes if it was an android device but never mind! Thanks for all your awesome support. At least That old dude has enough ebooks now to read until he dies.

Edit: I did post this in the bitching session so i could bitch while trying to figure it out.

You barged in and posted bullshit. I googled for 1 min, for a format I didn't know ("mobi") and found out how to do it. "It's that easy." Probably took you longer to type the first post than it took me to look for an answer. Laughing

Not really I had already found that which you found as well but there were a few steps in between that were super annoying and reason enough to start a bitch thread about if you have not touched a apple device before. Like: you need to have fucking itunes installed on your fucking pc also you need to have an amazon account to be able to install kindle.Yes of course I could have converted 5 gigs of mobi files in another format using calibre but I didnt feel like doing that for some odd reason.

And to compare apple vs android if it would have been an android device could simply have copy pasted the folder of ebooks onto the device with a usb cable install any reader that can read mobi files and I would have been done. SO yes I needed to bitch which I did in this thread. I did not attack anybody as I hardly ever do that but its fine I have a reasonably thick skin.

BTw as a final note thanks Saner and Sabin for actually helping =)

You're welcome.. I guess, though I didn't really "help" much Smile I'd forgotten that you needed an Amazon account for Kindle iPad, I guess because I've had an Amazon account for as long as I can remember, so it was just as simple as logging in.
