TouringPlans eBooks are delivered as Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Nearly all electronic devices are equipped to via these files without installing special applications. However, getting a PDF file on your mobile device may be tricky.
First--and this is incredibly important--no matter which eReader or mobile device you're using, always download the PDF file to your computer and then transfer the file to your device. This is the most reliable way to ensure a successful download, and it ensures that you have a back-up copy on your computer for safekeeping! Here are links to the instructions for the most popular formats:
- iPad & iPhone: Apple recommends importing the eBooks into iBooks, which you can do by following these instructions.
- Kindle: Amazon suggests emailing the file (these are likely too large for that) or copying via USB. Use these instructions to transfer.
- Android: You should be okay opening the download email you receive from us in your Android device and clicking the link there. If you'd rather go the more reliable route and copy from your computer, Android phones can act like disk drives when you connect them to your computer with a USB cable, so copying the files over to a phone is just similar to copying a file to any other external drive.
- Nook: Nook users should connect via USB and transfer to their device by following these instructions.
