[AnnaMarie]

i tried to download the concordance offered in the News forum.

After 3 minutes I got this.



Not sure if there's a problem, or just not available outside USA?

Looks like your browser is treating the epub file as something it can open in the browser.

Try right-clicking the link and choosing Save As...

There is no right click on an iPad. And it just went straight to that page, didn't give me any options.

Yeah, I see the same thing happening -- I'd recommend using a desktop computer and transferring it over to your iPad manually

Thanks for your help Bev Vincent . I'm also trying to find my Kobo to see if it'll work on that. No idea where it is.

....I'm sure a Hartsfield had something to do with it's disappearance....

Language has been added to the page:

The download is an epub, and you will need an ebook reader such as Calibre to open the file.

If you're having problems downloading the file, try right-clicking, command-clicking, or holding the link and then selecting "Save Link As..."

I've modified the link itself to try to make it more iDevice-friendly. Could you give it a try?

Kobo is ePub. So, if I can find mine, I should be able to download on to it?

At least...I think it is.

I've never tried downloading anything directly to my Kobo, but you should be able to load it as you would any other ebook (not purchased from the Kobo store).

I got the same gibberish.

I have always downloaded directly to my kobo. I stopped borrowing e-library books because they no longer allow it. Guess I'm going to have to actually turn on my computer and figure out how to transfer.

<sigh> I am so technologically challenged. But, hey! I can set up a VCR...

Probably from ebook stores.

It was lost...obviously my ereader is not a purchase I'm happy with.

Apparently this problem with epub files and iDevices started with iOS 9. Previously you'd get a link allowing you to open the file in another app. One suggested solution can be found here...but I can't vouch for it. I don't know that I'd want to reset all my settings.

Thank you Jordan

It downloaded quickly onto my computer, and my son was able to then put it onto my ebook. Which is actually where I wanted it. I was willing to settle for the iPad if I had to.
