Re: Why we need a searchable iPhone manual

2013-02-22 Thread Aman Singer
Hi.
What, if I may ask, about the iPhone manual in the iBooks store? It's
in Epub, and you should be able to search it with iBooks. You don't
mention this in your message. Have you tried this as well?

RE: Why we need a searchable iPhone manual

2013-02-22 Thread Cristobal
Also, if you're a Bookshare member, you can grab some pretty good i-device
manuals there. This is what I did when I first got my iPhone and used for my
main source of reference material until I familiarized myself with iOS and
the phone.

No, I have the iBooks app and manual installed but had not noted that it was
searchable. Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Why we need a searchable iPhone manual

2013-02-22 Thread Christopher Chaltain
If you have the PDF file, another option may be to export it as a text
file. this isn't always perfect, but it will allow for quick searches
and a quick way to find some information.
