pdf file size here is ~9.96MB in case it's a file transfer problem.

I still haven't seen the firmware for the OM5P-AC radio yet. Will that be part of the technical documents released after Kickoff or will we need to search elsewhere?

My guess is the radio update utility will be installed with the 2017 Update Suite. Might be posted here:http://search.ni.com/nisearch/app/ma...nav:pdl/q/FRC/

What Browser are you using? With Firefox, select Save Link As... I would have thought that that saved the link itself, but it downloaded 10.2 MB of data.

Firefox and Linux both describe the file as 10.2MB. However, if you do file browser on it, the number of bytes should line up perfectly.

My file is described as "10.4 MB (10,444,146 bytes)".

Has any iPhone user been able to save this to their iBooks app on their phone? I can save it in dropbox but I'd prefer to have it in iBooks. When I click on "view in iBooks" in the safari browser, nothing happens. Thanks.

I am getting this problem too. I might try some workarounds later. I'll keep you posted if anything works.

I literally just had to figure this out with one of our students last night.

Long story short, no solution could be found to save it from Safari. If you go to the link in the Chrome app, you can save it to iBooks from there.

Thanks for the tip. Just wasted 30 minutes trying to save to iBooks from Safari. Installed Chrome and it was done in seconds. I also saved a local copy with Adobe reader too, just in case. Wish the world could run on Android.

Glad to be of help. I tested with other documents and have submitted a radar request to Apple through their Beta channel. I remember being able to save the document from Safari last year, so something changed with Safari.

I downloaded it on my computer, emailed it to myself, and then opened it from the email on the iPad. Was rather disappointed that Safari wasn't working.

Opening it in Chrome sounds like a much simpler solution.
