Choose your problem first

If something is not working in Notability, start with the issue that matches what you see.

  1. Links fail to move: choose the hand tool, then test one Index link.
  2. The planner imported incorrectly: import the actual planner or notebook PDF, not the ZIP, receipt, preview page, or instruction-only PDF.
  3. Imported content is missing: compare the PDF in Apple Files, then re-import a fresh copy into Notability.
  4. Stickers look blurry: insert the original PNG again and keep it closer to its original size.
  5. Pages feel hard to manage: use Content Manager carefully and keep a clean backup before deleting or moving pages.
  6. The file feels slow: close other apps, check storage, update Notability if needed, and test with a clean copy.
  7. You need more help: send your product name, device, Notability version if known, exact issue, and a screenshot or short screen recording.

Common Notability fixes

1. Links fail to move

The most common planner-link problem is using a writing tool when you meant to navigate. Choose the hand tool, then test one Index link.

2. The wrong file was imported

Import the actual NozomuNoto planner or notebook PDF. Skip the ZIP, receipt, preview page, and instruction-only PDF for the planner import.

3. Stickers look blurry

Digital stickers are image files. Use the original PNG and keep it close to its original size.

4. Page tools feel risky

Use Content Manager for thumbnails, bookmarks, page movement, copy, duplicate, and page actions. Keep a clean backup before deleting or moving important pages.

5. The note feels slow

Large images, many stickers, low storage, or an older app version can make a working note feel slower. Test a clean copy before changing many pages.

Before asking for help

  1. Test a fresh import. Import the original PDF again before page moves, cover changes, or exports.
  2. Test the same link in Apple Files. This separates file-link issues from Notability mode issues.
  3. Write down the exact product and app version. Include product name, year, orientation, week start, color, device, iPadOS/iOS version, and Notability version.
  4. Send a short screen recording if possible. Show the exact step where the issue happens.
