You don't need Adobe reader on any Mac or iPad. It displays PDF files natively. In fact, the Mac display IS Display PDF , and the Mac can create a PDF file from any application.
Search for any PDF on the Internet on your iPad and click on the file. You'll be able to read it.
Hate to say this, but pretend you’re talking to a 10 year old. No, scratch that, the average 10 year old probably knows more about computers than I do. I use this I-pad to read books, search the Internet and post on some sites. Every so often I come across a story or picture or video that is blank or has a small blue question mark in the center. I click on it and it says (not a direct quote, it’s not in front of me right Now) “adobe reader and flash cannot be viewed on I-pad” Are you telling me there is some other way I can view this stuff on my I-pad? Are you saying I can convert it to a different format?
