HT1904 My iBooks say failed to load book because requested resource is missing? ?

I purchased three books that won't let me have access. Give me an error message that says "failed to load book because requested resource is missing. How do I resolve this problem?

Hello Akiva 1959,
It sounds like you have made some purchases in iBooks, and when you try to download them you get this error message that the resource cannot be found. I would report this issue to our iTunes Store support directly with this article:

  • I am unbale to read my downloaded Ibooks on my Ipad mini. message says ' failed to load book because requested resource is missing" ?

    i am unable to see downloaded iooks on my ipad

    You have to be at your original source where you downloaded your iTunes account (mine was my home computer).  Delete the iBooks app, turn off your iPad. When you are back home or where you originally downloaded iTunes re-download the iBooks app. All your purchases will be there, deleting app does not delete your purchases but you may have to re-download all your books again.  The key is to be at the original iTunes download spot.  Good luck.

  • TS1702 help!!!!  I cannot open books in ibooks,  says "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing"  how do i reopen purchased books?

    I cannot open open purchased books fro ibooks,  a window pops up saying "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing"  not sure what has happened, extremely frustrating.....does it have something to o with icloud?

    Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logou appears and let go of the button.
    Or try deleting the book and download it again. You can download it again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID.
    If that doesn't work either, sometimes deleting the iBooks app and reinstalling it may work. But art with the first two suggestions.

  • My iBooks were fine yesterday,today unable to read, message comes up; failure to load book because requested resource is missing".  What do they want?

    My iBooks were fine yesterday, today unable to get into book, message comes up, "failure to load book because requested resource missing"  
    It doesn't tell me what resource is missing, & why could I read this 12 hours ago fine.

    I've got a solution, it's not so perfect, but i bet someone would come out with a better one based on mine.
    Solution:
    Step 1: close iBooks app and delete all existing book data
    Since I have recently lost all files in my ibooks library due to something wrong with Time Machine backup, I could delete all my book data without anything to worry about.
    I deleted all files in:
    /Users/[usename]/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBoo ks
    and the iBook configuration files (well, the whole folder):
    /Users/zlw/Library/Containers/com.apple.iBooksX
    It doesn't matter if you have deleted the whole iBooksX folder, what you would lose at most is the bookmark data, etc.
    deleting all the files inside the iBooks folder of BKAgentService will enable you to redownload the file that you want correctly.
    Step 2:
    reopen iBooks and you will be able to download the book that you want.
    Possible improvement:
    there is a Books.plist file in the iBooks folder of BKAgentService, it might be possible to modify the plist and and the folders so that it's not necessary to delete them all.

    If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

  • ' failed to load book as required resources is missing' on my iphone

    i am getting error ' failed to load book as required resources is missing' on my iphone.
    Mine is the Iphone 3gs, It has iOS 4.3.3
    Does any body knows how to fix this issue?
    I have tried the re-downloading etc.

    I am having the same problem too. I have the iPhone 3GS and its running 4.3.3. I have tried re-downloding and re-installing and none seem to work. Would there be a way to fix this? I think that the problem is that it stores the book in the memory and I'm wondering if you can delete it from there.

    Receive this message when I try and open a book " failed to load book because the requested resource is missing" I have deleted the book and deleted Ibooks and still keep getting this message. Any ideas on what I should do.
