Looking for help to display sheetmusic

I have added a monitor to my Genos setup (see picture) to display sheet music but need some advice. I want to display pdf-sheetmusic from songbooks on my laptop in 2-page format. I know that Songbook+ is a suitable program for this but as far as I know this is only available for ipad or mac. I use a windows laptop. I need some advice on this.
Thanks in advance
Bert

Hi Bert.  If you have a windows laptop you might want to look at Mobilesheets for windows.  I think there is a one off payment of about US$15 but it is a great piece of software and with excellent technical support and a user forum.  I have a similar set up to yours - except I run from a Android and a monitor.

The good thing about Mobilesheets is that pdfs can be easily linked to GENOS registrations.  It can easily handle over 1000 pdfs in double or single page format.

I have no connections with Mobilesheets other than being a satisfied user.

Kind regards,
David

There's always the old fashioned way — just load the pdf yourself.

Cheers,
Fred

You can try OpenText - works very well and it's free.

I highly recommend Mobile Sheets for Windows. I used it to replace Open Text when I got my Genos, and I find it to be excellent.

The price is minimal. Just make certain you download it directly to the Laptop you wish to use it on. (Since it is sold as an app, you can mistakenly download it to a cell phone, and then you are stuck.)

It will show a two-page format on your laptop screen. I use Airturn as a page turner via foot pedal. It links my .pdf's directly to my registrations. I click on the registration, and up pops my .pdf.

Best Regards,

NAMA,

You didn't mention what version of windows you have, but in Windows 10 or 11 you can split the screen and put a PDF on each side.

Thanks Rick.
I am preparing an old windows 10 laptop that I want to use only for this application so that I have a fixed setup. I will add Mobile Sheets.

I downloaded the trial version of Mobile Sheets for Windows from the Microsoft store. After installing on the laptop I noticed that the name of the program is Mobilsheets Companion but looking to the starting page it looks like this version is for a tablet, see photo. I do not understand what I did wrong.
Hoping somebody can help me out.

I just downloaded it and loaded 1998 pdf's into it no problem. I think you installed the wrong version. Mine says Mobile Sheets no mention of Companion. I installed the trial too.

MobileSheets Companion

Download the MobileSheets Companion and unlock the ability to manage your library from the comfort of your PC.

The MobileSheets Companion is designed to connect to both MobileSheets and MobileSheetsFree on an Android tablet, as well as MobileSheets on Windows devices.

As the name suggests this APP is a companion to the windows version, not the program it's self.

Hi Bert,

This is the original download page for MobileSheets. Just click on the "Get it from Microsoft" button:

● Everyone kept saying "That won't work!" - Then someone came along who didn't know that, and - just did it.
● Never put the Manual too far away: There's more in it than you think! ;-)

Thanks for your reply Chris, you are always very helpful.
This is what I did but going to the microsoft site I do not get any further. It seems that this site is locked in my laptop, probably because I reinstalled windows 10. Please look to the photo of the screen. I do not know how to solve this. This has nothing to do with keyboards but probably you can help me in this?

That is not the problem Casper. I just cannot get into the microsoft shop.
I just downloaded the trial version of mobile sheet on my other laptop without problem, so I know the procedure. But I want to use a other laptop, espacially for my fixed genos setup. This laptop I have reset to the factory settings with windows 10 and with this laptop I cannot connect to the microsoft shop because it is locked (see my previous picture). I do not know the reason and how to solve this.

Did you do this after re-installing Win10.
Open Settings.
Click on Update & Security.
Click on Activation.
Under the "Windows" section, confirm Activation is set to "Windows is activated with a digital license."
Under the "Add a Microsoft account" section, click the Add an account option.

I finaly managed to download mobile sheets. I upgraded my windows 10 to the latest version and this solved all the problems. Great program!
Thanks for all your support.
