Syncing IBooks to IPad 1

My original IPad 1 is broken. I got another Ipad 1 and synced it up but all of my IBooks that I purchased from the ITunes store won't sync to the new IPad 1. How can I get the new updated IPad ap for an old Ipad 1. As of now, it won't work with the old OS on the IPad. I hope that makes sense..Thankshow do I find out what OS my Ipad 1 has?

Yes, update both devices to iOS 5 or newer. Then be sure both devices are signed in to iCloud (Settings > iCloud) and be sure iCloud is signed in to the same account. You will then need to turn notes to ON, and have the same me account on both devices (it will prompt you for the me account, which is free through apple).
Your notes will then synch.

Sync iBooks From iPAD to iPhone

Please follow the steps below to figure out how to Sync iBooks From iPAD to iPhone
Before Starting: Settings For Both Devices
1. Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections > On

1. Sync iPAD with iTunes.
2. File > Transfer Purchases From iPAD (this should transfer those books your purchased on your iPAD onto your iTunes)

No, this is not necessary or correct. It's not necessary to transfer to and from the iTunes library. When you sign into your iBooks account on each device you have iBooks installed in:
iBooks > Store > Purchased > shows everything you bought > download from there wirelessly.

Syncing iBooks on iPad to PC iTunes

Can I get the books I purchased on my iPad iBooks app to sync and save/backup on iTunes on my PC??? When I try to sync, iTunes seems to want to overide my iPad with my iTunes info instead of the other way around. I don't want to lose what I've already purchased. Any help would be appreciated ...
Thanks everybody.
Dave

Finally got the iBooks synced with iTunes after the 7th or 8th time. First it took all the books I purchased off my iPad and put them in iTunes on my PC. Then I couldn't get them back on my iPad. After speaking to Apple phone support who kept insisting to me that the only way that would happen is if I synced my iPad with another computer (which I don't own another PC) or that the iPad was setup at the store where I bought it (it wasn't, the box was sealed when I got it home)I got disconnected from phone support (twice, including I'm assuming was an attempted call back which was disconnected immediately) After just trial and error I finally got things where I need them to be. But, what happens the next time I try to sync everything ??? I don't think that'll be for a while ... Like the iPad, but support, not so much ...

Unsure how to sync ibooks between ipad and iphone

A few months ago I downloaded an extensive collection of work documents, in pdf format. They've been saved in ibooks on my iphone. After having synced my phone to my itunes, I currently see that I have those documents in Itunes. However, not knowing how to sync between iphone and ipad, I had uploaded those documents manually to my ipad via email. Now I have some mismatching documents in ibooks. I am wondering how to rectify this. I wonder if I could erase my ipad, and restart it as a new ipad, then sync it with my itunes on my computer, in order to upload the appropriate documents into ibooks. Thoughts?? Thank you!

Welcome to the Apple Community Ryan.
PDF's don't sync between devices in iBooks, if you want to do that use something like Adobe reader.

IBooks on iPad and iPhone

I have an iPad and and iPhone. I have iBooks app on both. I don't have an iMac computer. Can I get the books I purchased on my iPad to show up on my iPhone. I believe I have the settings on both to Sync.
I saw on on Apple commercial they showed someone reading an iBook on an iPad and then showing the same book being able to be read on the iPhone. There was no iMac in the commercial. This lead me to believe I do not need an iMac in order to share a book on my iPad and iPhone. However, earlier threads seem to indicate a computer is needed to sync iBooks between iPad and iPhone.
My calendar and contacts sync correctly.

The books won't share or bookmarks/collections?
Reset both devices?
Turn sync bookmarks & collections off, then on again?
Remove the books and then load them up again from a single iTunes library?

My books are no longer in iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. Not on my iBooks, either. Had over 200 books in itunes library, all synced to my iPad 2. I deleted them as I read them, knowing I still had them in iTunes. I updated to iOS 7. No books! Where?

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!

How to sync pdf files in iBook on Mac to iBook on iPad/phone?

I used to easily move pdf files I created on my Mac to my iPad by using iTunes to sync them as books. But now books are separate from iTunes (as they
should be), and iBooks doesn't sync my pdfs to my iPad. I've done it using Dropbox as an intermediary, but this involves lots more steps... Am I missing
something? (Yes, I seem to have the sync content options enabled both on the Mac and the iOS device.)

From iTunes Help Menu this worked for me

Hi - I'm trying to sync iBooks on my Macbook Pro with iBooks running on my iPad. I have some pdf's download from the net I want to share between devices and I can't work out how to sync the two devices. Any help please?

Hi - I'm trying to sync iBooks on my Macbook Pro with iBooks running on my iPad. I have some pdf's download from the net I want to share between devices and I can't work out how to sync the two devices. Any help please? I'm running Mavericks

Thanks for your help Brij011 - much appreciated. Apologies as I'm a newbie but I've looked at the info for synching and I appear to have all the switches flicked on my iPad. Does the iPad and iBooks only sync in iCloud for purchases as I appear to be doing something wrong. I could sync ok when books was in iTunes but since migrating to Mavericks I think I'm doing something wrong!!

Using iBooks on iPad Syncing Problem

Using iBooks on iPad I added several books directly while not connected to iTunes. When syncing later, the books do not appear in iTunes (Windows) but seem to stay in iBooks on the iPad. Why don't they show in the Books folder? Why aren't they added to the Books in iTunes? How do I get them there? All software is at the current versions.

It may be your computer is not yet authorised. Check by going in iTunes to Store > Authorise this computer. If that's not the case, simply try going to File > Transfer Purchases
That should get any purchased content off the iPad onto the computer
Hope this helps

EPub books not syncing between Maverick iBooks and iPad

The books on my Mac won't sync to my iPad. I can read them fine on my laptop but can't transfer them. I tried moving the files to ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books as was suggested somewhere here but they still won't sync. I cannot buy ebooks from the iBook store because there is none in my country; how am I supposed to read them on my iPad/iPhone?

Hey, calm down everyone.
There IS indeed a solution to this. You only have to do 2 simple steps that all your books are wirelessly updated no matter where you annotate them, on Mac with Mavericks or on iDevices running iOS7.
On Mvericks, the auto update feature is already set to be syncing. Go to the iBooks Preference > General and check the Sync Notes, bookmarks etc. This is a default setting. So there's nothing to do.
Then go to your iDevice and open up Settings > iBooks > Check the Sync Bookmarks and Sync Collections.
Then comes the magic. Everything will set up and sync automatically. Everything from notes, highlights and colections.
Voilla!

IBook Bookmarks don't sync iPhone to ipad

I've read all I can in the communities and online and followed all instructions but my iBook bookmarks still won't sync between my iPad mini with retina and my iPhone 4.
All settings match, with all sync options on.
Please help?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Which exact iBook model is it?
You can choose from this list:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/index-ibook.html
Which version of the operating system is it running now?
How much RAM is installed?
What kind of optical drive does it have? (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD, Combo, or SuperDrive?)
(Sometimes these older model Macs simply won't work with the newer gear.)

Sync epubs from iBooks on iPad to iphone

I have downloaded several free epubs, from non-iBooks sources, into my iBooks on my iPad. I now have an iPhone. I turned 'sync iBooks collection' on on both devices but cannot get my iBooks collection sto sync. What am I doing wrong?

Hi NewGirl8,
Welcome to the Support Communities! What format are the ePubs you are trying to sync? The article below explains how to sync your PDFs and non-iBooks Store books.
iBooks: Viewing, syncing, saving, and printing PDFs on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Using Sync Collections with PDFs in iBooks
If you turned on Sync Collections, iBooks will keep your PDFs (and non–iBooks Store books) in the same collections across all your iOS devices and Mac (if you're using OS X Mavericks). For example, if you have the same PDF on all your devices, when you move that PDF to your Sci-Fi collection in iBooks on your iPhone, that PDF will appear in your Sci-Fi collection the next time you open iBooks on your iPad.
If you delete a PDF (or non–iBooks Store book) while you have Sync Collections turned on, it only affects the copy on the device. For example, if you delete a copy of the PDF from your iPad, it will still be on your iPhone.
For more information about iBooks and the iBooks Store, see the frequently asked questions and how to sync iTunes Digital Booklets to your iOS device.
Cheers,
Judy
