Hi there,
Please may I have some advice for apps on my new iPad ?
I have an iMac on which I run MS word, excel and powerpoint. I have just bought an iPad which I would like to use to store and edit some of these files. I know that plenty of apps for storing and editing MS office documents are available..... BUT if possible, I would like the documents to automatically sync with the iMac over iCloud, so that the most up-to-date versions are available on both devices, without having to keep copying and updating manually.
The app store is quite bewildering. There are so many apps promising to do the same thing, but when you read a little deeper there are subtle differences e.g. I understand that Pages will sync documents over iCloud, but I would have to install Pages for Mac and move documents on my hard disk - I would prefer to leave the organisation of my Mac hard disk alone if possible.
So,
1. Can anyone recommend bug-free, practical and easy-to-use software to store and edit MS Office documents on iPad ?
2. What's the best way of getting them to sync with the Mac effortlessly ?
Many thanks indeed for your time. Your help is much appreciated.
Cheers,
John.
