Is there a way to download the AARP Magazine and AARP Bulletin for offline reading on a computer? I have downloaded them on my smartphone and someday I may actually find where they were downloaded to and what format they were downloaded in (PDF, etc.).

If there is a way to download to a computer, is there a way to stop the paper delivery so there would be no need to recycle them?

Thanks in advance for any assistance. 🙄

@VictorTango76 Thank you for being a member! I invite you to visit AARP The Magazine at aarpmagazine.org or AARP Bulletin at bulletin.aarp.org to view published content online.

I was also able to stop delivery of your AARP Bulletin and AARP Magazine and they will stop being delivered to you within 4-6 weeks due to pre-printed mailing labels.

Thanks for stopping the printed AARP Bulletin and AARP Magazine - the environment also thanks you.

So, I guess there is no way to download the AARP Bulletin and AARP Magazine as PDF's to be read on other devices, like a Kindle or Nook or other devices that are not connected to the Internet?

@bjedrick Unfortunately, there is no way to download PDF copies of the publications at this time. I have passed on your suggestion to our team. Also, as an AARP Member, you can log in to view the current issue of AARP The Magazine and AARP Bulletin online.

There appear to be MANY who would like a PDF copy of the publication....why is this not happening.

Unfortunately only go back 1 year, it would beat clipping copying or scanning, from the issues I have before i found this feature.

Clutter I don't need either, I'm just becoming too lazy to stop the mail version, Ill have to figure that out someday.

Always asks for my phone # when I log in here.

TO DOWNLOAD: Click on one of these links for the bulletin or magazine. Then click on VIEW MAGAZINE to open the PDF version in a browser. Then you can download. Works for me on a PC with Chrome browser.

I give yet another vote to have a pdf download available from my computer (not a table or phone).

I moved and missed about 8 months of the print edition.

I tried to see if the "ONLINE AARP MEMBERS EDITION" would work for my needs. It does NOT.

I looked at the members edition online & find it severely wanting. I made pdfs of the first 5 "pages" of the online edition to look at it for offline viewing. It is not very pleasant to read and the page numbering is way off, so that is not an option.

Guess I'll be another person who won't be renewing.

For the record, starting with the July-August-2024 edition, pdf file downloads are no longer offered.
