Ibooks author file not accepted by itunes producer

I have completed a book with an Ibooks author file size of 830MB; it is not being accepted by itunes Producer for upload. Do I need to export it to IBooks format? I did this export but the resulting file is just 77MB. I did not try to upload it via Itunes Producer as it seems to small to be correct. ????????

Thanks this helped but not enough. I was trying to feed the I books author file directly. So, i went to File/publish and created a file labeled ITMSP. Then went back to the Publisher wizard. I was unable to load the ITMSP file but the Publication window in ITUNES Producer has the Ibook file I exported from IBA in it. I continued through the wizzard but chose not enter a target audience. When I got to the end and clicked on the button to send to Apple it went through a verification process and flagged the lack of target audience. So I went back and entered 13 and up. But the same error keeps occuring and I can not proceed. Any ideas on the following
1. How I clear the error message now that I have entered the right data
2.Is the Ibooks export the file that should show in the produce window, or should it be the ITMSP file that wont load there?

  • Exporting to Apple TV3 - file not accepted in iTunes

    Hello,
    I'm using the "Share" function in FCPX and selecting the Apple TV for 720 (or 1080)
    When I try to import the resulting file into iTunes it does not import. Nothing is happening.
    I have a workaround for this by using another SW to convert the exported file to a file that is accepted by iTunes, but I think that the extra step should not be needed.
    Anyone have some comments on how to easily get an output from FCPX that will be accepted by iTunes ?
    Thanks . Christer

    When you add something to the iTunes library, iTunes doesn't tell you anything happened.  If you can't find it in the library, that would be odd.  I do this all the time and it works just fine.  How exactly are you importing into iTunes?

  • My Ibooks author will not open a file

    I have an Ibooks author file that will not open.  How can I open the file to edit it?

    In that case, if the file isn't locked and/or owned by another user, and you don't see any errors when trying to access it, all I can imagine is that it is somehow broken/corrupted.
    If you don't have a backup to try instead, you may want to contact Apple for iBA support and see if they can help....that, or walk your MB into the nearest Apple Store and see what they think.
    Good luck in any case.

  • Ibooks author file larger than it should be

    Hello,
    I started a new ibooks author file a little while ago.  I began by dragging in a number of tiff files that I created in a music noatation program.  It was about 500 images at about 50 - 60 kb each.  I also pasted a few jpgs of a smaller size.  When I went back to it, the file size said 11.4 gb, which seems ridiculously large to me.  I've already completed one book the same way and it was no where near this size.
      I did notice apport support mentions problems like this with anything earlier than 10.7.5, but I'm running 10.7.5.  I've also duplicated it like they suggested, but it still says its 11.4 GB.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks.
    DJC

    The file size should be 2 gig only.  Tiffs are "heavy" files, you should  really download and read up in the iBA Assett Guide.    Images should also be 2meg although  Apple seem to accept files of 3meg +
    iPad retina display is 2048 x 1536 =3.1 meg.   resolution is suggested at 85 dpi/ppi.
    If you have adjusted files sizes in Photoshop or similar - I  also set the file size and adjust - then set the resolution or check  the files size is set to whatever you prefer between 72 - 150 max
    I cannot explain why your end file size seems enlarged, all you can do is check the source files as they are before inserting/dropping into your pages.
    I use original files sized at 2048 x 1536 @72dpi / ppi  or 1024 x 748 @ 72 dpi / ppi    these are landscape reverse the sizes for portrait. These are the files sizes whatever size I decide to finally display on the page.
    Assett Guide:
    Optimizing Images in Fixed Layout Books
    In addition to the image recommendations in “Interior Image Requirements” (page 22), the following apply
    to working with images in Fixed Layout books:
    ● Images inside Fixed Layout books must be in JPEG or PNG format. To reduce file size, use JPEG for any
    images that do not require transparency. Using JPEGs results in a smaller file size and better performance.
    We recommend using a quality of 85 for JPEGs.
    ● Images inside Fixed Layout books must not exceed 2 million pixels. You can calculate whether an image
    inside the book file exceeds 2 million pixels by multiplying the height and width of the image
    If you have done all the above, already.. all I can suggest is check everything again.

  • I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit?

    I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit? I have not published anything, just previewed on my ipad but the file seems to be deleted from my imac which is what I was using ibooks author on. Any help is welcome!

    It's not a 'process' at all.
    If it was easy/straightforward, people would be turning store versions into iBA versions left/right and all **** would break loose. It's not and that's a good thing, sorry
    Work up from whatever version you have.
    Any work you value should be backed up....period. That backup should be used and tested regularly. Consider this a lesson learned, perhaps. Good luck in the future.

  • IBooks Author does not open existing ibook

    I updated iBooks Author yesterday and saved an existing ibook on my Mac and USB drive. Today morning, the book is refusing to open, displaying a "invalid format" message. The file also apprears to have shrunk in size, from 250mb to 8kb.
    Any idea of what happened and how I can resolve this? Or would I have to re-do the whole thing?

    I found the answer here. I guess I just didn't dig long enough!
    The short answer is that iBooks Author does not output a format that supports iPhone. Use Pages to generate an ePub file that supports iPhone, etc.

  • Merge 2 iBooks Author files

    We're working on a textbook and have multiple designers working on different parts of the book. We'd like to have each designer work on different chapters simultaneously. We thought we could just use separate iBooks Author files and then combine then but can't find any way to do that. How are others working in a mutli-designer environment?

    I am a history teacher and my students are currently creating class iBooks. We are copying and pasting the chapters and everything is coming out fine except for one issue. The glossaries are not transferring over. My kids need to re-create their glossaries and terms. Is anyone else running into this problem or have a solution for it beside copying and pasting their work from one IBA to another.

  • IBook created with iBooks Author does not appear on iPhone

    Hi,
    My daughter created and published a book using iBooks Author but it only shows up in the iPad and Mac version of iBooks.
    Is there a way to get it to work on the iPhone iBooks store as well?
    Thank you for your courage.

  • Convert an iBook author file to an epub file

    How do you convert an iBook author file to an epub file so other devices can open my book?

    This is so unfortunate.  I teach a graduate multimedia class, and we are looking for an authoring program in which students can create ebooks.  Last year we used iBooks Author, which is a terrific program and does not require advanced tech skills, but is really limited in terms of its publishing and output options.  I would love to use Author again but am frustrated by its inability to play well with the PC platform.  Is there anything being planned that would enable iBooks to be converted to a PC friendly platform?  I do not want to export the books as PDFs because we lose all of the interactivity functions.  Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    If I fully backup my iPad using iTunes, does it backup ebooks in iBooks that are not purchased via iTunes or will restoring from that backup only showed purchased ebooks in iBooks?

    Purchased content MAY be available for redownload - Music for sure.  I think books are NOT available for redownload (not sure).
    Best practice is to keep the content on a desktop computer to be able to resync when necessary (or use a cloud service like Drop Box).

    I put my ibook author file in the trash and then accidentally emptied my trash. Is there a way to recover the file? Does iBooks Author have a backup?

    if you use time machine, you should be able to get it back that way. Although IBA saves changes on an ongoing basis, it doesn't create a back up or supplemental copy elsewhere on your drive.

  • Why am I getting print file not accepted?

    I'm using a HP LaserjetP1102W 
    Print file not accepted?  No idea why?
    It's been saying Printer Not Connected. 
    I'm using Safari and would like to print coupons.
    Hope this is the right place to post this.
    Thanks!

    Hello lostvalleyfarm,
    It sounds like you are not able to print to your HP Laserjet.  I recommend following these steps to troubleshoot the issue you are experiencing:
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
