[QUOTE="davowolf, post: 1949016, member: 387936"] Questioning my judgement Ian, is a good thing, don’t worry about that. I’m only semi IT literate and as you can see have relied on the good advice from yourselves on this forum before to get by other issues. When I set this iPad up out of the box it did download from a previous iPad I’d got off eBay which claimed it to be New Unused. After setting that one up I immediately returned it, unused otherwise, for a refund as it was scuffed on closer inspection and I didn’t believe it was as described. So yes it did restore from the cloud from a previous one but I’m not sure if it was comprehensive. When setting up the new one I do recall skipping a stage so that may have led to some incompleteness too. So, perhaps a novel setting up after a reset might be a good thing ? How would I do that ? Would a transfer by wire as you suggest solve anything ? Notwithstanding however, I’m still puzzled by the need for that ODR software to read my .ODT Open Office files. I’ve not come across this before. Might a switch to a different Word Processor be a solution ? [/QUOTE]
