Does anyone know how to do this?

I can't get it working, I have Adobe Reader on my tablet.

But I'm not sure how to import. Here are my steps so far:
Step 1: Log into my university's
Step 2: Go to files and download my instructor's powerpoint.
Step 3: Android gives me options: Polaris Office and Quick Office

I'm not sure what to do next. I thought it would be important to get this to adobe reader. i have this, but it doesn't list it as an option. Nor do I know how to convert from Polaris Office. A huge part of why I bought this tablet is because of s-notes, and I know there are ways to use it and it will fulfill my needs.

I checked out Terran White's videos on Youtube, but it is not helping.

I figured out how to annotate Powerpoint on Polaris office, thanks to other posters on the forums and playing around with my android. :confused:

Not sure about but I think your two Office apps can't convert a PowerPoint to PDF.
But there are apps that do this (online). Adobe has a convert app too.
I've to look for its name.
Update: 'Adobe CreatePDF' by Adobe ... sorry not in Play Store anymore.
But there are others of this kind.

Also, I have Adobe PDF reader along with various pdf readers. Or converters.
Here is what happens after I have files in pdf.

I do the following steps:
1. Click S-Notes (Takes me to to a screen of files in S-notes)
2. Click On three line with the triangle
3. Click "import"
4. Click "pDF file" when importa box pops up.
Then it takes me to "My Files"
Then "sd card"
5. Click on Downloads or Documents
6. Then it comes up with a box saying "Complete action using..."
Here are my options: Adobe Reader, Office Suite , PDF Reader, Polaris Office, Polaris View, Quick Office

None of these take me to S-notes after I supposedly click to important them. What am I doing wrong?
I think part of it is locating the files, I talked to my classmate who owns a small android thing. But he does not use S-notes.
Does anyone else have any idea?

The problem is that it doesn't matter what app I use, I want to fix S-notes.

It's not putting the files in s-notes, it just re-directs me to the other app. That is not functioning right.

I talked to the 24/7 support chat at Samsung.

2 people cut out on me.
1 person told me that it can't happen. Then what is the point of the import button?

Okay. The situation is resolved. I messaged Terran White and she got back to me.

It turns out that when I go to the pdf and when it asks for which application I wanted to run, I had to press the back button and then click "done".

Hi - I just bought the Galaxy Note 10.1 and did exactly what you noted above but when it redirects back to S-Note - it gives me an "internal error" message and then doesn't import.

Any thoughts?
