Anyone have an ePub file that isn't properly read by iBooks?

I have (2) ePub books, without DRM, that appear in iTunes and on the iBooks shelf properly, and the first few pages of the book look fine, but all the pages after like page 4+ are blank. Very strange. But the books are still long like there is data there that it is not rendering. I've tried resizing, etc. Nothing works.
I installed Stanza on my PC. It can open and read the ePub files just fine. I tried converting the ePub files to another eBook type, and then resaving them to ePub. The "converted" book can be read by iBooks without incident, but a lot of the nice formatting is gone. Just trying to make a small change to the ePub book in Stanza and then saving the file did now work.
I guess just a small bug in iBooks. Version 1 and whatnot...

I had some similar problems this weekend. In one case, everything after page 50 or so was blank, and on another, a blank page was inserted between every other page. I ended up just turning the file in to a pdf, copying and pasting the text in to an RTF file, and then changing the file back in to EPUB. It's not an optimal solution, but at least I can read the book on the iPad now.

  • When syncing a video on my iPad, I have en empty file that I can't read

    Hello,
    When I try to sync a video on my iPad, I can't read the video. Syncing is processing, then when I go in the video section of my iPad I have a 0MB file that is not working.
    How can I fix this problem ?
    (I'm using a MP4 format file though and iTunes 11.0.4.4 on a HP Pavilion PC)
    (French speaking person, so if you want to answer in French, there's no problem)

    Since nobody here can possibly know what is included in "majority suggestions posted for this problem" then your next step would be a trip to an Apple Store and ask for their help.

  • Anyone have an iPod file that is corrupted  (TVZY.m4a or 1108.m4a)

    I do and therefore i cannot put anything on my iPod and it only shows up in My Computer not iTunes restore does nothing and it did happen BEFORE the 1.2 update so Does anyone know what I can do? I have the 30gb. ipod w/video. I paid $320 for it and I do not want that to go to waste.
    :(PLEASE HELP ME:(

    When music files and video files are added to the Ipod, the name is changed. The extensions you listed m4a are song file extensions. Now, why the name change to the files on the iPod, it is either Apple language or copyright protection for the files you add to the iPod.
    Truse me though, look for those files (use the search companion for those file names and delete them off your iPod).
    Post back to let me know if it worked or not. I have this posting set to email me with replies.
    Good Luck.

  • Since changing our computer I have been unable to download ebooks to my Reader Library I get a message Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library; Waterstones suggest that I may have accidentally created a new Adobe

    When I try to download them from the Waterstones website I get a message saying:
    ‘Some file types associated with EPUB files are not associated with Reader Library.  Do you want to associate them now?  When I reply yes I get another message; ‘Configuration error unable to update EPUB files check network firewall and try again’.
    The ‘books’ are saved in the Download directory and I can’t transfer them from there to my E-Reader. I have not had any problems before, it was very simple; I saved the download and it automatically went into the Reader Library.
    I contacted HP and they said it is a software error and suggested I contact Waterstones.  I contacted Waterstones Customer Support and got the following response:
    As the error message is specifically mentioning the firewall it does sound like something in the firewall settings is stopping the download from taking place correctly. However, the files should not be being saved to the Download folder. It would be worth trying again by going to your Digital Order History on your Waterstones.com account and pressing the download button, and then making sure to press "Open" not "Save". When you press Open rather than Save it should give the option to open the file with Adobe Digital Editions. If the firewall message still comes up then I'm afraid something is blocking it on your end.
    If the above "Open" download method works but you then still get an error message it could possibly be that you have accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up on the new computer, rather than signing in with your old Adobe ID. It would be worth trying the aforementioned download technique again first, but if problems did still persist it would be worth calling Adobe themselves on 0207 365 0735, as they should be able to sort out any account issue.
      In response to the first para of Waterstones email I already do what they suggest I do press ‘Open’ not ‘Save’ but I don’t get the open with Adobe Digital Editions (we have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer. Waterstones say we may have ‘accidentally created a new Adobe ID when setting up the new computer’ does that mean that we shouldn’t have installed Adobe Digital Editions on the new computer as it would have already been there? How do I sign in with my old Adobe ID? 

    Hi all after attampting to get some supoport from adobe by phone.... nice people infurating policys as far as support for digital editions or DRM is conserned... However I got no where with support.
    I ended up instaling Digital editions on my desktop PC and going through the motions of registering and borrowing a book then returning it. Then I trying on my iPad, Bluefire worked, Over drive did not so I completely removed Overdrive and reinstalled and re registered. all working now.
    Maybe some one at adobe did something. Maybe the install of the adobe DE client on a PC corrected what ever was out of wack with my account. Mayby the server that my account lives on did a scan disk and corrected a bad clustrer.
    What ever happend My account is actiove and working again. hope this helps others.

    I have a .avi file that is not playing. It keeps telling me additional software is needed. I have Mac OS X 10.6.8. Can anyone explain why?

    Because there's no codec installed on your system for that specific AVI, and there may be no Mac OS X component for it. Try installing Perian.

  • Does anyone have a simple program that will return the size of a file

    Does anyone have a simple program that will return the size of a file?

    I quite hate it when I receive the incorrect amount of yoctocandela per metre squared. Swarthy people
    can't properly convert poundal feet to barleycorn; throws off the whole conversion! Aaah, you get what
    you paid for.I recognize those figures; you've got your outsourced file sizes from Zanzibar; admit it! I always apply
    the scientific approach when I've got file sizes back from Zanzibar: I simply divide those numbers by
    pi (very scientific) and drop the eleven (ueber scientific, because 11 is prime even when looked upon
    as a binary number) least significant bits. And remember: never compare two floating point numbers
    for equality. (<--- that's a free tip)

  • I have a Pages file that I created on my iPad that I used iCloud to store. There are no backups anywhere of this file. The file is stuck on updating on iCloud and on the iPad the file is inaccessible. There is a black bar over it which greys the file out.

    I have a Pages file that I used my iPad to create. iCloud backed this file up to its server. The problem is that my iPad somehow locked itself. I had to restore it, the file was lost on the iPad, and when I went back to iCloud to retrieve the file it said it was Updating. The file is showing on my iPad, but it is greyed out with a black bar across the bottom of it. I have been working on this file for months, and I am not about to lose it! Please can someone tell me how I can get my file to download at least to my iMac.
    This file has worked perfectly in the past, and what I didn't realise when the iPad was locked down was that the Airplane Mode was on, to save battery. If that had been on it would have synced it again.
    Can anyone help me? I'm supposed to be sending this file (completed) off to a company in three days.
    Thanks

    On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
    Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

  • EPub file that works elsewhere getting error in iTunes producer, error items-9000

    I'm trying to upload an epub file to iBookstore with iTunes Producer. It's an epub file that's uploaded elsewhere with no problems. I am getting this error message ERROR ITMS-9000: "Unable to analyse: chap07.html" at Book (MZItmspBookPackage). Would appreciate any help.. thanks

    Just did a little research. You must publish your book from iBooks Author if you have media files in it. That arror code means that there is a file type error. If you upload using iBooks Author then that code should go away.

    I am having a problem with the FireFox browser. I have attached two files that best describe the problem. I have labeled them A & B. A is the way it should look and B is what happens after I have I opened several tabs. I can get it back to normal if I click on VIEW than click on customize. When the customize window appears FireFox returns to its normal state. I than click on the done box and go back to what I have been doing. I tried resetting FireFox back to default settings, but that did not correct the problem.
    This began happening about a month ago. Is there a way I can fix this problem? Thanks for your help.I don't know how to attach my 2 attachments that shows the problem I am having.

    This is not the problem. We are using quicktime on the pc's and the mac. I also tried to open the file on the pc with other programs and it doesn't recognize the file. The file opens fine on my mac but I cannot save it as a new file. It says that "the end of the file was reached." The recording was made in iShowU then edited in Quicktime Pro.
