How to Read PassPorter E-Books on Mobile Devices

PassPorter's e-books can be read on your mobile device, including iPhone, iPad, iTouch, and Nook. Below are details on how to view the PassPorter e-books

Store Purchasers: If you purchased your e-book in the PassPorter Store, you can still use the above directions to add your e-books -- if you do not see your purchased e-books listed, be sure to lookup them up here first.

Tip: If you have a problem download any of our e-book files via the Concierge Desk, we recommend returning to the PassPorter Store to locate your order again (sign in and click Order History), and download it from the store instead. This method seems to work better for large files being transferred over slower connections.

iPhone, iPad, and iTouch If your iPhone/iPad/iTouch is connected to the Internet, you can simply use Safari to surf to http://www.passporter.com/desk, touch E-Books, then touch the "Download PDF" link below the e-book that interests you. (You will need to login to view your available e-books.) Once the e-book download is complete, an "Open in iBooks" button will appear. Click this and the e-book will be saved in iBooks for you! Notes: - You need to have version 1.3 or greater of the free iBooks app in order to add your e-books via the web page. If you do not (or cannot) get the latest version, you can still view the e-books in the Safari browser window, or you can add the e-books to your iTunes library, then sync it to your device. - If an e-book you download appears without images, you may need to re-save it with a PDF writer, such as Preview (a free app on Macs) or cutePDF (a free-to-use app for PCs), then add it to your iTunes library and sync your device. You can also use iTunes software on your Mac or PC to transfer the file(s) from your computer to your device during a sync. There are two methods you can use: 1. Drag the desired file over the open iTunes window, and Drop the file onto the Library (upper left corner of the window) 2. Select Add to Library... from the iTunes menu bar, select the desired file(s) from the Add To Library window (you can select multiple files), and click Choose.
