I tinned the wire and am just trying to touch the wire to the pad with the iron until it gets hot enough to flow and then remove the iron, but then the wire just doesn't stick after the solder cools.
Flux will help with that, but sometimes I also have to add additional solder in situations like that. Just be careful you don't blob it around so much that you bridge some things that shouldn't be bridged.
