How do I retrieve purchased books purchased through iBooks?

I recently bought a few books on my ipad only to find out my it won't charge, sync, or recognize the cord at all. No big deal, it's getting exchanged, but I can't sync the books just bought! How do I retrieve my stuff with the new ipad?

You didn't say what app you purchased them in, so I'm going to assume it's iBooks.
When you get the new iPad set up on the same iTunes account, just go to the store within iBooks and then select "Purchased" on the bottom right corner. To the best of my recollection, it will let you download previously purchased books.

  • How do you retrieve a book purchased from Amazon?

    I downloaded the Kindle app to my IPAD and purchased a book from Amazon. How do I retrieve it?

    Have you set up the Kindle app with your Amazon userid and password?  If so the title of any books you have purchased should show up in the app with a downward pointing arrow on the bottom righ hand corner of the book.  Click this arrow to download the contents of the book.
    Update... I'm using Cloud so maybe it works differently.
    Further update...  A quick search found the Amazon instructions on how to do it.

    Purchased songs in the past then recently purchasd new songs,  but the new purchases replaced all of my old purchases.  How can I retrieve my old purchases?  Cannot find them in any of my playlists.

    If you purchased all of the songs through itunes store, please follow these steps:
    1. Open up Itunes and Click on Itunes Store
    2. Once you're in the Itunes Store look to right side of the screen and you should see the word "purchased". Click purchased and you'll be sent to a purchase screen.
    3. Click on "All Songs" and then it will show all the songs you've downloaded. From there you just hit the button that looks like a cloud with an arrow on it, and it will download all the songs all over again.

  • How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    How can I delete the purchased books list in iBook?

    Hi,
    Yes you are miss understanding the problem.  To clarify. The problem is not how to delete the book from a device, it is how to delete the puchase (i.e. the history).  You can hide it in your account settings, but you cannot delete it. So if you buy something on a shared account (i.e. a family account like mine), your children can see and download any of your puchases - forever.
    Some will say it's for your protection.  A bit like the shop looking after your receipt, so that you cannot lose it.
    However, I thought that as part of the data protection act, you could ask for this information kept about you to be deleted, but this doesn't apply to Apple purchases.  Believe me I've tried.

  • How do I retrieve my iTunes purchases?

      I had to restore my computer due to a virus emergency. The wipe ended up destroying my iTunes backup completely because the virus literally infected everything, and now it says that there's no available downloads (I think that has something to do with authorizing computers, because I never got to deauthorize my iTunes before I restored my computer to factory settings). How do I retrieve my iTunes purchases? There's got to be some way to do it, I spent probably over $500 on purchases and will be really upset with Apple if there's no way to get it all back.
      Also, I looked up some YouTube videos on how to do it, and some mentioned a place on the Apple website where you request them to reapply your active downloads, which will recover all of your purchases even in a situation like mine. However, all the links that were provided on the videos are now broken. If someone could either tell me what to do straight up, or send me a working link to that place, that'd be great. Thanks!

    Depending upon what country that you are in (not all content types can currently be re-download in all countries) then you should be able to re-download some/all via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you are not in a country where everything can be re-downloaded and you haven't got a backup then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    One possible reason is have you synced to your computer's iTunes recently ? If so then it might have replaced the books that were on your iPad with those that are on your computer's iTunes library.
    You should be able to re-download them via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app, or via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes and then sync them back to the iPad : re-downloading. If you re-download them directly on your iPad then you may want to copy them to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, so that you have a backup copy of them and to see if it stops them disappearing from the iPad again when you sync (assuming that was the reason why they disappeard).

    Google Czech ebooks.
    You'll need to make sure the format will work with iBooks or one of the reader apps when you download.
    Start with the free books and go on from there.

  • I updated my iPad to iOS 6 I face a problem to retrieve  my books in the iBooks and the videos as well all the other apps are fine , I am sure I did back up, the books appear for a second in the iBook then disappear? Thanks

    I updated my iPad2 to iOS 6 I face a problem to retrieve  my books in the iBooks and the videos as well . All the other apps are fine with full data. I am sure I did back up to my friend's mac book pro .The books appear for a second in the iBook then disappear? Thanks

    They gave me a brand new phone and I logged into all of my iCloud stuff, etc...
    When I try to go onto the Internet it will say its loading, loading, loading, then give up. Pandora has given up after one song. All other apps that need to connect to Internet or networks load and load and then give up. I will double tap the one button and close out all the apps and it may work for a second but no more. Then I will turn the phone off and the same thing happens.
    I have run out of ideas.

  • How do I delete a book purchased for ebooks through Apple iTunes

    My son took my ipad on vacation and purchased inappropriate books for ebooks through Apple itunes, these books need to be removed, ASAP.  How do I remove these books?  When I open my apple account they do not show up, when it open the ebooks account they are there.  Gotta get them removed.  I contacted book bud & ebooks, both told me I needed to contact the download engine....since I'm usually asked for iTunes password and/or apple password is why I'm asking.  Could somebody please help me.  Thank you.

    If they are ibooks purchased from the iTunes ibookstore then though purchases are considered final you can try the 'report a problem' link on the account's purchase history to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
