[QUOTE="davowolf, post: 1949052, member: 387936"] Rod I honestly can't remember what stage was skipped on the new iPad but bacause I had set up a previous one (dishonestly sold as new and unused on eBay) I think the brand new one was updated from that. And yes all the Open Office .odt files open as normal on the iMac. That's the thing, they don't on the iPad though the titles do appear. The ODR document reader I've now got thanks to Jake identifying the issue, does work and opens for read only but only if I open that and pull the file in there. The two other ways would be 1) as Jake suggests converting the .odt files to jpeg or pdf or 2) copying the odt files on my iMac and pasting them into a new Pages document which can then be read (and edited) on the iPad. So there's 3 solutions, but all 3 are tedious and involve document by document work. I have several dozen song chords and words. A fourth of course is to write any new documents from scratch in Pages. [/QUOTE]
