Before asking for help

  1. Test a fresh import. Import the original PDF again without page moves or exports.
  2. Test the same link in Apple Files. This separates file-link problems from Notability mode problems.
  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 problem happens.

Common Notability fixes

1. Use the hand tool for links

The most common planner-link problem is using a writing tool when you meant to navigate.

2. Use Content Manager for pages

Content Manager is where thumbnails, bookmarks, movement, copy, duplicate, and page actions live.

3. Keep a clean backup

If the working note gets messy, re-import the original NozomuNoto PDF and move only the pages or notes you still need.

If something still feels off

If the same problem happens in a fresh copy and another PDF viewer, send the product name, device, app version, and a short screen recording.

For Notability, send the product name, device, app version, and the exact step where you get stuck if you need help.

When possible, test page moves, template copies, bookmarks, or cover changes on a copied planner first, so the original download stays clean.
