[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1756696, member: 83420"] Hello again Mesut. Just so I understand correctly: before you used Air Drop, may I presume you had those PDFs on your Mac? You then copied them over to your iPad? It was copied, not moved? I'm really trying to understand where the PDFs originated (your Mac?) and whether they should still be there (copied, not moved). On which device (Mac or iPad or both) can you not find the PDFs? There are two aspects to your question: finding the PDFs and determining which app should open them. The latter is easy in that if you locate a PDF, Right Click on the file and, from the drop down, choose Open With - a list of options will appear - choose whichever app you want. Now to locating your PDFs: On your Mac, you could use "Spotlight" (part of macOS) or download "EasyFind" or "Find Any File" and search for them. If you can't remember the names of the files, search under Kind PDF and all your PDFs should appear. May I leave it there till I know a bit more about the circumstances as per my questions above?
