If I buy a digital book in EPUB size from a web site, how I may read it on my IPad? Specify that I didn't buy it from Apple Store.
If I buy a digital book in EPUB size from a web site, how I may read it on my IPad? Specify that I didn't buy it from Apple Store.
First, epub has nothing to do with size, it is a file format that is popularly used for ebooks, but ebooks published in epub file formats vary greatly in file size.
It will depend on where you buy it. Many books are DRM locked (Digital Rights Management, a software lock). If so, in order to load it into another companies reader or reader software, you need to use something like Adobe Digital Editions to "authorize" the book on the device. Apple's iBook software does not work with ADE.
If the book was DRM free, you should be able to read it in any ereader or ereader program that supports epub format.
If the book is DRM locked to B&N, Amazon, Kobo or whichever seller you shopped from, then the simples thing is to download their free app for the iPad (they all make one, in fact they all make free apps for iPad, Android, Mac OS X and Windows).
So the short answer is yes, you should be able to read any epub ebook file on an iPad, although not necessarily in iBook.
So, books from
Amazon - get the Kindle reader app
B&N - get the Nook reader app
Kobo - get the Kobo reader app
non-DRM epubs can be read in iBook, Nook, Kobo, or Google Play

How do you find your recent purchases. I was charged something that I didn't buy from the itune store according to my bank statement.
You can check the purchase history on your account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, though I'm not sure if that shows auto-renewing subscriptions . If you don't recognise a charge then you could contact iTunes Support via this page and see if they can help : 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

HT1349 how can i sign up for one to one if i didn't buy my ipad from an apple store
i would like to purchase one-to-one for my new ipad, which i didn't purchase at the apple store. how can I do that and is there any way I can use it this afternoon if the apple store near me has a slot available? Thanks
Betsy WildBetsy, call the Apple store and see if you can get in if there is space available. Friends have purchased Apple products and had no problems at the stores in my area participating. One even went to a training session before buying. So give them a call and get that spot before it is taken.

I have a blue hanging screen with restart and I went to trade line stores and they refuse to help me saying that I didn't buy my iPad from trade line store ?
Your problem might be a easy fix.
If the firmware "forgets" what partition it's supposed to boot from, it won't load OS X, so if OS X doesn't load then it can't tell the fans to slow down, the default is "turbo mode".
So all you might have to do is hold the option/alt key down while booting the computer with a charged up battery on power, you will then see a row of icons and you pick OS X to boot from.
Once in you head to System Preferences and set the Startup Disk, that will tell the firmware what to boot from again.
Try it and see if it works.
You can do more if your problem is not fixed.

I wanted to know if I am able to go to the apple store and will they help me even though I didn't buy it from them.
Yes, if it was purchased new you have a 1 year warranty, despite who you bought it from (unless it's stolen goods)
However you should purchase AppleCare while your in the store for another 2 more years of coverage also a backup drive for TimeMachine to protect your data. -
hi
i bought 2 taylor swift songs 2 years ago,
but today when i wanted to download them again it said that i didn't buy them.
so how can i get them back
btw im not planning on paying for them againIf you are in a country where you can re-download music, and they are the same songs that are still listed in the store (e.g. they aren't different releases of them), and you are signed in with the same account that you bought them with, then they should show in the Purchased link for re-downloading
If they don't show then are they hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 ?
And you haven't changed country since buying them ? -

apple store,very dangerousThese are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. Have you checked the purchase history on your account (Store > View My Account on yoru computer's iTunes), and have you (or anyone who access to your devices) made in-app purchases in apps and/or have you taken out any subscriptions in apps ?

Can I use Apple store from a country other than the country I live in. Example: I live in USA and want to use Apple store in Thailand to buy and download thai content.
No, you can only buy content from your own country's store - to be able to buy form another store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it. You can try requesting that the content that you want be added to the US store, but ultimately it's the content providers (record companies, film studios etc) that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

I wish to buy a book that is only available in the US store but my itunes account is only for the Australian store - is there a way I can still buy this book. Sorry I am only just learning all this.

How come I can buy foreign books through Amazon as e-book, but the same book can't be downloaded from iTunes? That doesn't makes sense.
Why would you think that all stores would have the same policy?
Amazon allows it, iTunes does not. That is why. Like most companies, Apple does not forward explanations to al of their decisions to the general public. It does not have to make sense to you, for it to be true. Apple has teams of experts that have determined that this is how they should conduct their business.
With iTunes, you cannot use other countries stores.

So i bought a book on ITunes, but i don't know how i can read it?
So I bought a book in the ITunes Store on my Macbook, but i don't know how to read it?
I noticed at the bootom of that page was this note "Note: Books are only readable on iOS devices that have a compatible version of the iBooks app installed."
"Buying and downloading books on your computer
When you find a book you like, you can purchase the book and either sync it from your iTunes library to an iOS device, or have it sent automatically from your computer to your iOS device to enjoy it. You can also send samples to your iOS device. To send the book or sample to your device, you must have iBooks 1.2.2 or later installed, and have Automatic Downloads enabled on your iOS device. When you send a sample or book, the content will be downloaded to your enabled iOS device with Internet access. Books you purchase on your computer will download to your iOS device as well as your computer, but may only be read on your iOS device. To enable Automatic Downloads, you must have iOS 4.3.3 or later installed on your iOS device; Automatic Downloads are not compatible with iPhone 4 (CDMA Model). For more information about Automatic Downloads, see iTunes Store: How to enable Automatic Downloads." -
