  1. Ensure all your references in your EndNote Desktop library on your computer have been synced with your existing EndNote Online account. You want to make sure that your references in your EndNote Desktop library will be the same as those in your EndNote app.

    To sync your references: go to your EndNote Desktop library, then Edit > Preferences > Sync. Enter your EndNote Online credentials (e-mail address and password), tick the Sync Automatically option and press the Apply button. Then press the Enable Sync button and then the OK button. Press the OK button again to exit the window.
     
  2. Download and install the 'EndNote' app from the 'App Store' icon on your iPad/iPhone. Search for 'EndNote'.
     
  3. Once installed on your iPad/iPhone, open the 'EndNote' app and login into it using your EndNote Online credentials.
     
  4. Press the 'Sync' icon on the top left corner (looks like two arrows in a circle). This will sync all of your current EndNote references from your EndNote Online account so you can access them from your iPad/iPhone.
     
  5. Your references on your iPad/iPhone have now been synced. This means that the references in your 'EndNote' app library on your iPad/iPhone, the references in your EndNote Desktop library on your computer, and the references in your EndNote Online account are now all exactly the same. It is best to sync your references often to ensure they are always up to date.
