ADE seems to be incompatible with Apple devices such as iPads and iPhones. Am I right?

I've just signed up to my local library in London, UK, which operates an e-book "lending" service.
Unfortunately they have chosen as their partner Adobe Digital Editions, which appears not to work with most of the popular systems, e.g. Kindle, iBooks etc.
Should I waste more time trying to transfer the books I've managed to download to my Macbook across to my iPad (the sign-up process alone was a massive faff !), or just give up?

Thank you, Toniste, for that suggestion, which I will try. Certainly, trying to import the books into Apple's iBooks produced, for each one, the error message: "This file is corrupted."
I'll report back !

    If both accounts are authorised on the computer's iTunes that you sync them to, and the relevant apps are on that computer, then you should be able to sync them to both devices. The apps will be tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded them, so only that account will be able to download updates to them.
    If you log into the other account on a device and re-download its apps onto them then you risk tying the device to that account for 90 days (and similarly redownloading on a computer's iTunes) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

    Yes, under the Settings for the store, you can turn off the auto download for purchases, that way if you purchase an app on another device it will not automatically download on that device.  You would need to do this on both your iPad and iPhone.

  • Ive changed my apple id. in my iPad and iPhone under iTunes it's showing the new id but under iCloud still shows old I'd. I have been told to delete account and add in new one but worried in case lose all my stuff that's already saved in iCloud. any idea?

    If all you did was rename your ID, you can go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your renamed ID.  Deleting the account only deletes the account and any data you are syncing with iCloud from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.
    If, however, you are changing to a new account with a new ID, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then choose Merge when you sign into the new account and turn your iCloud syncing back on to upload your data to the new account.
    Before deleting the account, save you photo stream photos to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • Apple ID conflict on iPad and iPhone

    My Apple ID on my all three of my devices--iMac, iPad, and iPhone is:  [email protected] .   When I try to update apps on either my iPad or iPhone, in the pop up screen my Apple ID is [email protected]  an old Apple ID that is incorrect.  Because of this, conflict I cannot download or update applications to either my iPad or iPhone.   Any ideas how to correct this?

    Apps downloaded with a particular Apple Id are foerever tied to it, so any updates will always require that Apple ID.
    For purchases, you would need to sign out by going into Settings->Itunes & App Sotres, Apple ID ->Sign Out

  • I'm having trouble with "maps" on Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone.  It shows my current location and hour away from where I am.  As soon as a move iPhone away from my wifi at home to cellular it shows my correct location.  No help from Time Warner.

    What can I do to get "maps" to work on my Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone when connected to wifi at home.  iPhone "maps" work fine when connected to cellular service. Maps on wifi shows me about 55 minutes away from my current location.  Very frustrating.  I called Time Warne,r my service provider, but they had no answers since they were not knowledgeable of this situation.  Anyone else having problem?  I just updated all devices to newest update.  Is that the problem.

    Did you bring your wireless router with you? If so, it's possible the iPad is getting its location through the router and the router still "thinks" it's where you used to live.
    Try taking your iPad to another location where there is wifi (such as a coffee shop). Then, try an app that uses location services. If it's accurate at another location, then the source of your problem is your router.

  • How to build a website with working pulldown menus on iPad and iPhone?

    Hi everyone!
    I have designed a website,  http://fccr.ucsd.edu/ , base on "Template #1" by Chris Converse, available at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/dreamweaver_custom_templates.html
    The pull-down menus have a curious glitch on the iPad/iPhone which I wanted to ask for help on from anyone who might be knowledgeable on this issue (I have also posted this question on the apple pages, but so far without much constructive help...)
    Template #1 has various href="#" tags that presumably the user is to fill in.  This works fine on all desktop browsers I checked (IE/Firefox/Opera/Chrome/Safari), but if the tag corresponds to a menu that has to pull down, then by replacing this default tag with a URL, an iPhone/iPad will insist on following the link rather than allowing the menu to pull down.  This is a reasonable consequence of using a finger rather than a mouse (which can both hover and click) to operate the menu.  Fair enough, it is straightforward to design the dropdown menu layout so that its entries are either links OR designed to open up a new pull-down menu.  (future users of these templates should probably be warned about this...)
    There is a little glitch, though.  If you are exploring Template #1 (or my website) with an iPhone or an iPad, the first pull-down menu which you attempt to pull down after you load a new page will initially not function. However, all of the other pull-down menus will function after that, and after you pull down a different menu, the original pull-down menu that you originally attempted to pull down will also work.
    This appears to be a curious feature (bug?) in the implementation of the <UL>, <LI>, and/or <A> tags in the iPhone and iPad browsers.  The site http://www.bestbuy.com/ uses the same three tags with some slightly different code behind it, and it somehow avoids this issue (that is, it works correctly on both all five major Desktop browsers and the iPhone/iPad).
    Thus, I would very much like Adobe's help to figure out what bestbuy is doing with their use of the  <UL>, <LI>, and/or <A> tags in their pull down menus, so that these menus work without this little glitch on the iPhone/iPad, and then to see if we can modify Chris Converse's Template #1 (and my web page) to do the same...
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Best regards,

    I don't know of any other menu tool that offers this type of solution - but I thought I'd chime in because the other answers seemd (through no one's fault) that this could not be done ;-)

  • My computer crashed hard drive was replaced and now I have lost my music.  Am trying to sync with my music from my iPad and iPhone but it is not working what is the problem

    I need help please!  My computer crashed lost all data including my music.  Want to sync music from my ipad and/or iphone but it is not working.  What could be the problem how do I tackle it?

    Syncing only works from your computer to your iPad/iPhone, not the other way around.  So you can only transfer your purchased music from the iPhone to your computer.
