[NTLK] NewtonTalk Digest, Vol 137, Issue 2

Sat May 3 12:26:43 PDT 2025

The best way I found to get old notes from a Physical Newton to Einstein is via Mail.  It takes a while and you have to do like 20 per batch to send, but it does work. 

I sent notes via Newton via mail.  Then I used one of the Einstein builds for my Mac (receive mail), which gives you a “flash” file that you can then copy and paste into the Einstein App via Finder and shared files and pick your Einstein folder on the iPad.

Thanks,
Mark
