Macfags how do you deal with this shit
You don't.
You spend more money on some shitty cloud service with vendor lock-in so you can perform file operations over mobile intenet connection to rape your battery, data plan, and send a back up copy to Obama.
Its fucked coming from WP but when i save pdfs into iBooks and .docs into Word then it Gera easier to send them as an attachment using the ios/stock e-mail client.
Gera--->becomes
I am still getting used to the awful T9.
>want to download and email a PDF on company issue iPhone to coworker
just send the link
>mfw I just recently got an iPhone an never had to do this
>mfw I just tried to download a pdf from my gmail and there's no option to download or do something similar to the file
>mfw I literally have no idea how to handle this situation
I never needed to save and send a pdf til this moment but now I questioning my life choices. Normally I'd just share a doc in Google Drive with a coworker and would call it a day.
>h3h3
fuck off reddit
>download PDF to iBooks
>connect to a computer
>transfer PDF to computer through iTunes
>e-mail
is how i'd do it
sure it's convoluted but it's better than what op went through (and not necessarily less convoluted than op)
You can e-mail a PDF from iBooks tho
not without setting up the stock mail client, as in op's situation
Just tried, it won't let me e-mail it since I've uninstalled Apple's Mail and am using Outlook and Gmail clients instead.
What a piece of shit OS. I miss my old laggy LG G2.
This is mind boggling to me.
True
(btw he can remove the calendar duplications by setting up the sources)
Every year, EVERY SINGLE YEAR they add basic functionality Android had forever to iOS and call them FEATURES.
So there is another way. Long press (but not too long that you highlight text) the PDF in the page and wait for the options menu to come down from the top. Go to more and you have import options. Now they might look identical to the options in the regular share menu but they are implemented in a non retarded way that actually copies the file over.
I have absolutely no idea how or why Apple turned file sharing into Professor Layton bullshit but it works for me.
>being anything other than a teenage girl and using iOS
Kill yourself
This only works in Safari, right?
Because it doesn't seem to work with the PDF I've already imported to iBooks.
My head hurts.
I wish I could, but it was behind login and VPN that only IT and engineering have and we were both out of the office.
holy fucking shit
Out of the half dozen apple support sites on Google none of them mentioned this.
>Safari can't Download pdf hurr durr
Press Command s brainlet
you need to perform some iCloud fuckery with it to make it work since for some reason they don't show up on iTunes sync
>t. iToddler
You should've asked for a lagdroid OP, ios is for consumption not productivity.
Android might be slightly slower for everyday chill like Facebook or whatever. but at least it's got you covered when you need to get actual shit done.
I tried using 3d touch and the option didn't come up.
>press command s on a fucking iphone
fucking blind retards everyone
>friend works as service tech
>drives around all day filling in digital forms from his phone
>new IT guy joins company
>literal dindu nignog
>knows fucking nothing and someone convinced management to renew phone contract with all iphones
>all service techs get their galaxys replaced with iphones
>none of the techs can fill out their forms in the field anymore because iphones are such a fucking joke they can't handle drop down lists properly
>android does a proper drop down list you can quickly scroll
>itoy does some pants on head retarded barrel roller thing you have to flick for hours to get to the bottom of a list
>b-b-b-but the barrel rolling animation is so fancy!!! i-i-i-it jus werx!!111
Appletards should be rounded up and gassed.
>iTunes
It's like fucking hell. Are telling me you can download a document in current year? Wtf people even do on they devices
Why Outlook/Gmail instead of Protonmail/Tutanota?
"lagdroids" are usually considered insecure by companies, thus you are stuck with either blackberry or iphones.
Blackberry is the better of the two for production, but so many companies have hopped on the ios hype train that they have decided to stick with it, for some reason.
Because 1 "personal" gmail account (for shit like registrations, subscriptions and receipts), 1 corporate gmail account, and 1 outlook account for interviews, interaction with the state revenue service, and other formal stuff.
I have a Protonmail account but I have no use for it. Never heard of the other one before.
>be me
>work in it, underpaid
>have an old android phone because poorfag

fuck iphone users
I have tutanota, and 5 aliases, so I can use one as a spam mule, 1 for business ([email protected], for example), and another 3 to do whatever I want with. There are also solid inbox rules, so you can direct mail from certain senders into different folders.
The basic service is free, the premium shit like 5 aliases costs 1 euro/month (bitcoin and paypal accepted, I believe; I use paypal), and it's encrypted like protonmail.
Give it a try sometime. Not like you can't go back to your old service anytime.
this shit is like those stories from tumblrinas that talk about people clapping at the end.
Alright, thanks, I'll check it out.
No problem. Hope you like it.
Issues like this really makes me think.
It's one thing that this doesn't work on a phone, but their iPad Pro's are shipping with the same OS. It's supposed to replace the laptop but fails miserably at doing any productive work.
