copy file from macbook pro to ipad

it used to be so easy! i could just click the plus or minus sign to add or delete files.


not any more. so frustrated. followed instructions to drag files into acrobat. i can see them listed when i look at the finder window/ipad. so then i sync.


but they're not showing up on my ipad. obviously i'm missing something


what else do i have to do?



MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

PDFs could go anywhere.

Have you checked the Files app?

The iOS Notes app?


What about AirDropping then from your MacBook Pro to your iPad?

well, i found them on my ipad in the FILES app (which i didn't even know was there) - but still can't see them in the acrobat app. so i moved them into acrobat - again - and it says the file already exists there and do i want to replace it...


but i still do not see the files there. incredibly frustrating - when it used to be so easy!!! what a huge waste of my time


and i appreciate your help!
