One of the great things about the iPad is the ability to read books. Even Steve Jobs, at the very first presentation of the device, noted the convenience of reading books on this tablet. Millions of users have already appreciated all the benefits of such reading. Many of them have practically forgotten about the existence of paper books. Uploading a book to iPad is easy.
Book formats for iPad
Downloading books in Russian is no different from downloading in any other language. We recommend using the iBooks app to read books on your iPad. This is a native application from Apple, which was created specifically for reading books on Apple devices. Those who have used the application at least once are unlikely to want to exchange it for something.
For all its merits, iBooks also has a drawback. It only reads epub and pdf formats (iBooks 2.0 and later supports iBooks format).
Of course, there are many other reading apps that open other formats as well. But if you want to use only iBooks, you can use special programs that will convert a book of any format to epub in a few minutes (for example, the program (Caliber). And then you can enjoy a pleasant background, flipping pages, bookmarks, convenient search and other delights of iBooks.
Download books to iPad from computer
So, you have a book on your computer in the required format, but how do you download it to your tablet? The easiest way is through iTunes. You need to download the latest version of this program from the Apple website and install. After installation, you need to launch the program and connect your iPad to your computer via a cable.
When the device is detected by the computer, synchronization and backup will begin. This can take a long time. After completing these procedures, the iPad is fully synchronized. It remains only to open the "Books" section and transfer your files there. Now click on the sync button, after which you can turn off the tablet, open the application and enjoy reading.
You can do without a cable or aytyuns. The easiest way is to email the file to yourself. To do this, you need to go to the mail from the tablet, then open the file and select the "Open in iBooks" item. Everything! Your book will be loaded into the application and immediately opened there.
Mail can be replaced with a file storage accessible from both a computer and a tablet. For example Yandex. Disk. You can simply upload a book there from a computer, and then open it from a tablet. Then the procedure is the same - "Open in iBooks".
Downloading books to iPad from the App Store and other sites
Books can be downloaded directly from the Apple Store. To do this, open iBooks and select "Store". You will be taken to the Apple Library, where there is a great variety of books available - both for money and for free. True, there are very few books in Russian.
You can do without an app store and a computer. If you find a site where books are laid out immediately in the desired format and not archived, then you will only need to click on the download button. A file with a book will open on a separate page, and then everything will follow the old scheme - "Open in iBooks".
