Hi fantus and welcome to MobileRead. I used to read on an iPaq but now that I have an eInk device, I'll never go back. Well, okay, I do occasionally reda on my iPhone which is pretty good but I really like the no light shining in your eye with the Sony eInk reader.

Meanwhile, check out Calibre software (available free on this site) for converting formats

Welcome to MobileRead, fantus!

I wish I could help you with reading on your iphone, but I'm strictly a dedicated reader gal! As cassidym has said, Calibre is a great place to start with getting content in the correct format and onto a reading device. Good luck.

Happy Reading!

Welcome!

And while I personally refuse to buy anything from Apple (so I can't help you with your problems), could you describe what the problem is, exactly? What type of books are you trying to transfer? Do you get an error, if so, what error?
