My books are no longer in the iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. They are not in my iBooks, either. I had over 200 books in my iTunes library, all synced to my iPad 2. I deleted them from the iPad as I read them, knowing I still had them in iTunes. Then I updated to iOS 7. I still have the books I haven't deleted from my iPad, but all the other ones are nowhere to be found. No books in iTunes, no books in iBooks. Where are they? Also, going forward, if I want to add more books to my iPad, especially PDFs that are not available for purchase from the iBooks store, how do I do that? Help!

let's try working through this document. (you can skip the reinstall itunes step.)

  • My iTunes match on my MacBook Pro hasn't worked since Mountain Lion install. Tried Apple Tech but all their suggestions didn't solve the issue. Guess I will try them again on Monday. Clearly this is a common problem and a Mountian Lion conflict issue.

    iTunes match hasn't worked since Mountain Lion install. Cloud icon keeps striking~ off. Won't upload new tracks to iTunes match. Just the eternal circle of step one, two, freeze....then tries again but never gets completed. Worked fine before Mountain Lion. Apple tech tried over phone for an hour but it didn't solve this issue. See others are in the same boat. Any help with this, please??

    Same issue here with a MacBook pro recently upgraded to Mountain Lion.  I hadn't tried iTunes Match prior to the upgrade so can't say whether or not it worked previously.
    Getting quite frustrated!

  • I had over 200 e-mails.  I went to my webmail and deleted most of them.  However, my iPhone still shows 200 e-mails.  How can I force my iPhone to update from the e-mail server?  Or will I have to delete each e-mail from my iPhone as well?  Thanks.

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

    Hi vickkjayy11 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    Just to be clear, we are a peer to peer support community and have nothing official to do with Apple.
    So to your problem, when you say:
    "I reset my macbook pro a few days ago"
    What exactly happened? Did you have a Time Machine backup?
    Read this:
    OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    It would help to know the exact model (size and year) and which OS you're using.

  • HT1329 My large iTunes library is on an external hard drive. Can I set up iTunes on my new Macbook Pro and copy the library to it or are there any pitfalls?

    I have my large iTunes library on an external hard drive. Can I set up ITunes on my new Macbook Pro and transfer/copy this library to the internal hard drive or are there any problems I should be aware of?

    ITs an old Iomega 100gb external HD that has about 90gb of music on it. The Macbook has a 500gb HD. I would like to put the iTunes library on the internal HD so I have room to expand.

    You can copy it to the internal hard drive as long as it fits on it. How big is your library, and how big is your internal HD?
    The only thing you do not want to do is over-stuff the internal hard drive. The OS needs some space to operate correctly, so if your iTunes library uses up more than say 80 to 85% of the internal HD's available space it may not be a good idea to transfer it over.
    With that said, the internal HD will provide slightly faster access to the library than the external would, but other than that, you can point iTunes to the external drive just fine.

  • Macbook pro not displaying music library: What do I need to do to show music files in Library? They are not showing up.

    macbook pro not displaying music library: What do I need to do to show music files in Library? They are not showing up.

    If you click View, Show Sidebar you will see the other libraries under Shared in the left hand column. Click on the Library you want and you can expand it to select Music, Movies etc. Select whatever items you want and click import if you want to move them to your Library.
    You will have to have all computers authorised with the relevant Apple ID's
    Store  >  Authorise this computer...
    This is separate from the Home Sharing username and password and is to allow playing of DRM Movies, TV shows etc from the other computer.
    If both Computers use the same apple id this step is not required.

  • I am trying to download ebook from my library on my macbook pro but i can't figure out how...anyone know the answer?

    I am trying to download ebook from my public library on my macbook pro but cant get it to work anyone got a solution?

    They are usually intended for mobile devices like iPhones, iPad's (and Kindle's) ... you need the Apple iBook app to read them.
    Google for Stanza or eReader and it should do what you want.

  • My dad has itunes on his PC. I don't have my own but I recently have an iPad mini and an iPod. I don't know how to get songs onto itunes on the PC, using a different account or at least private/ separate..

    My dad has itunes on his PC. I don't have my own but I recently have an iPad mini and an iPod. I don't know how to get songs onto itunes on the PC, using a different account or at least private/ separate..
    So how do I create a separate I tunes on a PC which already has itunes... Or if not can I plug my iPad to the PC and use itunes on my iPad, and drag mp3s from a computer.
    I'm not sure what the equivalent of a desktop is on the iPad.. And I don't actually know how to use the icloud either...
    Can anyone start me off, given it have a iPad and use of a PC - not mine with existing iplayer
    I do have spotify soundcloud so I could potentially use these.. If there is a route of getting either mp3's etc to end up on my iPad or iPod.
    Kind Regards

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar.  Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom on my MacBook Pro laptop. I bought an iMac and I'd like to move my installations to the larger display desktop for editing purposes. How can I go about transferring them?

    I have the same question. It seems that Adobe is almost impossible to contact (I ended up here at the forums to ask the same question).
    I will never buy another Adobe product again if I can get another program to replace it. If this is customer service then it is NON EXISTENT!
    I notice that your question has not been answered and why should you have to get the information from a forum? I know of no other company that makes you do this for simple product information.
    NOT HAPPY with this version of arrogant customer service (nor am I happy about renting Photoshop products into the future - it is just a money grab in my opinion). I will be voting with my feet and going elsewhere in future.

  • Transferring my contacts, itunes music, apps, address book, and pics from my iphone to my new MacBook Pro

    I bought a new MacBook Pro 4 months ago, had some issues with it, brought it to Best Buy Geek Squad and they   . Now I would like to sync my iphone 4 with my computer. However, when I go to do that a message appears that says the computers current information will transfer to the iphone. Well there isn't anything on my computer and so I am afraid if I follow through with it my iphone will lose everything. I am mainly concerned about my address book, itunes and pictures. Is there any way for me to transfer from the iphone to the MacBook Pro?
    My husband also has an iphone. I'd like to be able to also sync itunes with his phone but not the contacts. Any suggestions?

    You might want to ask your question in the iPhone forum - https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/using_iphone.
    While all of us here have MacBook Pros, not everyone (including myself!) have an iPhone.
    Then again, some MBP/iPhone user may come along with an answer to your question... but I'd post it in the iPhone forum were I you.
    Good luck,

  • How do I easily transfer itunes back to my Macbook Pro?

    I transferred my whole iTunes folder from my Macbook Pro onto my Time Capsule in order to save space on my Macbook Pro. However this has caused plenty of problems especially when opening iTunes on my Macbook and it not being able to find the library. I have to physically locate it myself.
    I've since read on here that you should only move your iTunes Media Folder and keep the rest where they are, so maybe I should have done that instead of moving the whole folder!
    There are plenty of tips and advice on this forum in relation to where you should, or shouldn't store your itunes folder and/or library and I'm not a little confused. Some people say never store your itunes on the Time Capsule as this is only for backups and connect a separate external HD to your Macbook, but that doesn't make my Macbook very portable!! So I now don't know what to do for the best. If I transfer everything back to my Macbook Pro it will probably take a couple of days like it did do transferring it to the Time Capsule.
    Could I just delete iTunes and back up the library then reinstall it and start again from scratch?? I really don't know what to do and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Assuming you still have the CD's and they are still readable:
    Delete everything "jumbled" from your iTunes Library.
    Insert the CD, and do not read them into iTunes, but copy them instead  into a folder with the name you want in your iTunes Library afterwards, insert the next CD and copy it into a second folder (different name), etc.
    Then put the first folder into Yourname/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Automatically Add To iTunes folder.
    Start iTunes and see it appear in the iTunes Library. Close iTunes, do the same with the next folder, etcetera
    That was excessively complicated, and NOT how you import CD's into iTunes.  I have imported nearly 1000 CD's into iTunes and never once, not once, have I fulled around with folders.  That is done in preferences.  That's not how iTunes works.  William needs to post his question to the iTunes for Mac forum, where much easier solutions will be provided. 

  • HT3814 Why does iTunes on my MacBook Pro not remember/save edited info about CDs? It does on my G4.

    I haven't used iTunes in awhile to play CDs. Lately though it is not remembering CD info I put into iTunes. I have been using iTunes since the late 90s. I have always been able to edit info for ANY CD I play on iTunes and that computer would remember that info. Lately my MacBook Pro isn't remembering this info. I am able to edit CDs on my G4 Powerbok and it is remembering the info. (The G4 is using 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1 (5). I am using 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6.1 (7) on the MBP.) This used to work on the MBP but I haven't dealt with CDs in 6 months or so so I don't know more closley when this behavior changed.)
    I've had a go-rounds with Apple Care. Some say I have to import each track for iTunes to remember any edits on that track. I tried that today and that appears to be how things work now. That was not the case up until now. Has iTunes changed how it works?
    I realize that iTunes will read file names on the CD if they are burned into the CD. I used Toast for some recent CDs I burned on the MBP awhile ago and voila, those files names are appearing whern I pop the CD in. I cannot edit them so that iTunes remembers them though unless I import whatever track I wanted to edit the info from. OK. That's a step backwards but OK. (I realize I am not editing the info on the CD itself. Once a CD is burned that's impossible, I would only be editing the info that iTunes has about it...) Most of the CDs I have burned do not have track titles as file names.
    I know about the CD Info.cidb file. That is where info that I add manually (and info that Gracenote adds, which I also can edit...) gets saved. In the past I could edit ANY CD, regardless of where it came from, and that info would be saved in that file. That is not happening now.
    I have moved the CD Info.cidb file to my desktop and edited some info. ITunes is NOT creating a new CD Info.cidb file.
    So, has anything changed with iTunes or is there something else going on here? It could be a third-party app or an OS problem.
    Thanks for any help.
    Cheers,
    John L
    PS Apple Care is looking into this some more and will call me back next Thursday if not before then. My fingers are crossed that will have some info that is helpful. If I now have to import a track so that I can edit it (and save that info) on a CD, well, so be it but it doesn't seem to be a step forward...
    PPS For some reason, Apple put this under the iTunes Store. I would have put it under just iTunes. I forget the page where I asked the title of this question (which has since been edited). It then brought me to this particular forum. I would have moved it if I could...

    Basically anything not purchased from iTunes that is on my iPhone 6 will not sync over to my MacBook. I have tried to just manually back it up but only the purchased music will sync over to iTunes.
