I purchased an iBook on my iPad air and all software updates are done but the book is listed under purchased and will not open to view

I Purchased a book in iBooks on my iPad air with all updates complete 8.0.2 and the book is listed under purchased and will not open to view

Tapping the icloud arrow should get it to download to your bookshelf and it should then get 'downloaded' against it in Purchased instead of the arrow. See if any of the following fix it :
- close the iBooks app via the device's taskbar and then re-open the app and re-try downloading it : iOS: Force an app to close.
- soft-reset of the device : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
- log out and back into your account : select the Featured tab in the app, scroll to the bottom of it, tap on your id and log out, and then log back in

    Before you can download free apps:
    1. Make sure you are using IOS 7 (ignore)
    2. Make sure your iPad is registered in My Support Profile.
    https://supportprofile.apple.com/
    3. Try downloading again; it should be free.
    If you need serial number, it's here:

  • Could apple send me an iPad air. All my friends are making fun of me because I'm stuck with the old device and no phone. I've had app problems with apple before so I think that it would only be fair to get a newer device. Thank You Apple

    First we aren't Apple just normal users just like you.
    Second provide Apple a feedback or send them a mail.
    Third they will never send you a free iPad Air.
    If you want one you have to buy it. (go for refurbished if the device is too expensive) or look for special prices.
    Contact iTunes support if you have a problem with an App.

    PogoPossum,
    My area of interest is in business and economic history. There is a considerable amount of reading and charting. Until the iPad hit the streets, I only considered stacks of books, journals, and downloaded documents, all marked up with highlighters, underlines, and marginal notes.
    Most of my PC based work involved MS Office, Endnote, and MS OneNote.
    What I would like to do with the iPad and MacBook are the same things (Office, Endnote, OneNote) and add the ability to read and markup all forms of printed materials from books to pdf to webpages.
    I cut my teeth on an iPod Touch and have tried a lot of the note taking and reading apps. Without a camera the standard iPod Notes works for short quick notes and long think pieces. I just emailed the content and downloaded the stuff to my PC. Obviously, I do not want to continue at this "non-integrated" level of work.
    Does this help?

  • I recently purchased icloud storage for my iPad Air.  I want to store photos in the cloud and learn how to retrieve them.  I need help.

    I recently  purchased iCloud storage for my iPad Air so that I can store my photos in the cloud.  I don't know how to do this.  I want to be able to retrieve them as well. 

    Hello Janet
    With that iCloud storage that you purchased, is used for mainly for iCloud Backup for your iPad Air, app data as in games and documents for like iWork and other apps that save data locally within the app. Dealing with photos in your Photo Stream they actually do not count towards that storage plan. If you don’t think that the storage is going to work for you, then cancel the upgrade you just made.

  • When I open itunes it starts up in the book mode, why?  Also it will not sync my iPad

    I am having problems with iTune.  I start iTunes and it starts up in the book mode.  I do not see the start up screen and I am unable to sync my iPad.  I've tried uninstalling iTunes and restarting my system but have the same results.  I like the iPad but having to deal with this type of issue is beginning to make me feel like this is not the product for me.  Your assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

  • I plug in my iPad and sync it with iTunes and it says it's done, but the songs I synced on my iPad aren't there. How do I fix this?

    It no longer updates when connected to WiFi and it doens't sync when I plug it into iTunes.

    Like Tiffany, I too get the same message when I try to sync my ipad. I have a library and so does my husband. Both libraries are on the same computer, created at different times, with different content.  He has a movie in his library but it shows (as do his music, apps, etc) in my library.  When we try to sync the movie from either library we get the message. How do we complete the sync and how do we seperate the libraries?

  • HT5622 when I get an e-mail I do not get the notification, i.e. the red indicator on my screen. I have checked everything against my ipad and all appear to be similar but the ipad is ok.

    When I get an e-mail on my iphone 5 I do not get the red button on my mail app. Alos no Blue dot appears when I select the mail app.

    You can use the same, i.e. you can access the same mail account from both devices and keep them in sync if you like.

  • I'm trying to download some purchased TV shows to my iPad Air.  I keep getting the dreaded Download Error Tap to Retry Message.  I've signed out of iTunes and back in.  I've updated my software.  I have plenty of room for them on the Air.  Help?

    I'm trying to download some purchased TV shows to my iPad Air.  I keep getting the dreaded Download Error Tap to Retry Message.  I've signed out of iTunes and back in.  I've updated my software.  I have plenty of room for them on the Air.  We are taking a long flight this week, and I wanted to have something new to watch.  I've read through lots of threads on this but I can't seem to find a good solution that I haven't tried.
    If I can get them to download them on my iMac computer, can I then transfer them to my iPad?  How is this done?  (Please pardon an older lady's ignorance, and thank you for any assistance!)

  • TS3274 why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    why does ibooks crash on ipad air using 8.02?

    Hi DizzyTaco2,
    If you are having issues with an Apple application such as iBooks freezing or quitting unexpectedly on your iPad, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Why i do not see all purchased apps on my new Ipad air?

    I bought new Ipad air, restored all apps from back up. It worked perfectly.
    But when i  check purchased items in the apps store, there are only few appearing. It is weird because on my iphone 4s i see all purchases.
    Already tried log out, restart, log in did not work.
    What should i do to be able to see ALL purchased items in the app store?

    I have found the issue is related to transfering from one device to another using the option to restore from iCloud.
    In my case transferring from one iPod 4gen to another iPod 4gen.
    I have noticed a couple glitches, in addition to not being able to see my Purchased Apps from the App store, my Wi-Fi connection(s) are considerably slower. Signing in and out with my Apple ID does not help.
    When I setup my iPod as a new device using the same Apple ID I have none of these issue's, other than I have lost all my saved data.
    I can not find a documented fix for this issue and have been all over my iPod settings trying different things. I most likely will have to abandon my iCloud backup and start over.

  • Are we supposed to purchase an anti-virus for iPad Air?

    Are we supposed to purchase an anti-virus for iPad Air? Or is it secure without one.

    Virus's - defined as a malicious program that propagates itself through the operating system - cannot run on an ipad due to its sandboxed operating system. You can still fall victim to phishing if you put your info in the wrong place or enter it in the wrong site. but, generally, any 'bad' activity on an iPad requires the user to initiate or do something first.
    So while you can't get a virus you do have to be smart about how you use the internet and what you do with your device.
