Where can i save pdf files in icloud? Wo kann ich in der icloud PDF Dateien speichern?

You can't. There is no file storage facility like iDisk in iCloud. Only iWork compatible files.

You'll have to use a service like Dropbox.

Nicht möglich. Nur docx,doc,pages,numbers,xls,xlsx,ppt,pptx und key -- um den Upload via www.icloud.com/iwork möglich zu machen ( wohlgemerkt : Manuelles hochladen über einen Browser ), muss aber zwingend das jeweilige iwork app für iOS5 auf dem iDevice installiert sein.

Iwork 09 für OSX hingegen hat keinerlei iCloud support, synct also auch nirgendwo hin, daher der manuelle Umweg.

PDFs werden von iwork für iOS nicht unterstützt.

That's helpful, I'm sure!

"helpful" = No, just explaining the mess that "documents in the cloud" is ..

The OP didn't ask for a description of the 'mess'. He asked about getting PDFs onto iCloud.

I don't think it's a mess. At the moment, it's obvious that only Apple apps will be supported. However, when other developers take advantage of Apple's API, then we'll see more formats being supported.

The method of getting docs on and off Macs is a bit clunky, but on iOS devices it works extremely well.

Your welcome!

I installed a PDF reader.

It allows attaching pdf files to my iPod and synching with iTunes.

But I don't use iCloud, still. I do all backups local to iTunes library.

However, it should work no matter where or what IF you have files attached to an app that allows files.

When I make changes to files attached to apps, they change and show under iTunes - tried renaming a file on the computer and changed on iPod.

There are lots of alternative methods of doing this, but the OP was asking about iCloud.

I gave the "this works but not tested with iCloud"

Just going by experience, logic, 30 yrs programming.... did your scolding me help either?

No scolding intended, just pointing out that the question was about iCloud, not the many alternatives.

Hello Juergen,

The correct answer to your question is: you can sync PDF documents using iBooks. If you open a PDF document in iBooks, it will sync with your other devices in the iBooks application through iCloud. Please Mark this as the correct answer if it helps.

He has already marked the Correct Answer. Anyway, it is against forum rules to ask contributors to give credits.

Dear Mr. McKenzie,

Thank you for pointing out a forum rule that I was not aware of. You've been very helpful with your corrections today.

It so happens, however, that the answer marked as correct is not a correct answer to the question.

Cheers,

Chris

I think Jurgen meant the first response, but you can't change a 'helpful' to 'correct'.

Another forum rule is that there can only be one 'correct' answer that cannot be changed.
