Books in iBooks, but not syncable via itunes
I have 100s of PDFS and books currently in ibooks, however only less then half of the collection can be seen in itunes. Making it impossible to sync the books to my ipad!
Some are purchase from apple, some are not, however half of both collections are not present in itunes.
I have the lastest software for both mavericks and ibooks.
anyhelp on the matter would be greatiely appreciated,
thanks

That seems to be the case now with iTunes 11, but in prior versions iTunes would automatically download all new books in iBooks, even ones not purchased in the iBookstore. That's why I developed the workflow I've been using. I'm just now running afoul of the changed behavior in the new version of iTunes.

I bought a book in iBooks but received it in a foreign language. What should I do to get it in English and not have to pay again?
What languase does the book's description page in the store say that it's in ? If it says that it's in English then try deleting it from the bookshelf in the iBooks app and redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app.
If it redownloads in the wrong language then try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : 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
If the book's description page says that it's in the language that it's downloaded in then purchases are considered final, but you can try the above 'report a problem' link or Contact site to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you -
If I fully backup my iPad using iTunes, does it backup ebooks in iBooks that are not purchased via iTunes or will restoring from that backup only showed purchased ebooks in iBooks?
Purchased content MAY be available for redownload - Music for sure. I think books are NOT available for redownload (not sure).
Best practice is to keep the content on a desktop computer to be able to resync when necessary (or use a cloud service like Drop Box). -
Library Issue: I just imported 2 CD's into ITunes. They show up in "Recently Added" and on my other devices via ITunes Match, but NOT in the ITunes software on the computer where I added them. They show up in the search box, but when I click on the results it just kicks me to ALL my music. I have imported thousands of songs/CD's before and this is a new one.
Something may have gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Making another change to the library such as downloading the current iTunes Free Single of the Week, or deleting one track from your library and reimporting it, should fix the problem.
If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up which ought to correct things.

I have this issue too and want the same result, another feed suggests selecting the movie, going to get info, and changing this under options, but I suppose you have to do that movie by movie.
You can select all the movies you want and change them at once. -
Since updating my iPhone 5 to OS 7, changes made to calendar on phone no longer sync to Mac Book Pro OSX 10.6.8 via iTunes 11.1.1. Any thoughts?

Thanks - I would rather not upgrade to snow leopard. Is there a way to revert from IOS 7.0?
What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
Why not upgrade to Snow Leopard, if you can?
NO. There is no way to downgrade your iPhone OS back to iOS6. Apple makes downgrades of their mobile OS not possible.
If you can, the only thing you can do is upgrade your Mac's OS X operating system.

Since I updated my MacBook Pro's OS X version 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2, I am unable to synchronize my Address and Calendar Books informations with my iPhone 4 via iTunes. What do I need to do to update these data ?
I cannot synchronize the Address Book and Calendar data, even by means of iCloud or similar servers. It appears these data are not selected automatically during synchronization. How can one select Address Book and Calendar Book in Mavericks for synchronization ?

How do a really delete books from iBook store (not just hide them)?
How do a really delete books from iBook store (not just hide them)?
What do you mean? They do show in the Purchased items in iTunes. Click on the three little dots ... to the right of the last icon showing in the top left to get the list of other iTunes categories (like books). Click on Books, and then on Purchased:

I am trying to delete songs from itune 11 library and i want it to delete the song from my hard drive as well. All my songs are in the music folder but not in the itunes folder. itunes did not prompt me to move file to trash nor is there an option to remove file to trash bin. How can i delete songs from both the itunes and hard drive at the same time?

could it be in the itunes folder or does it have to be in the itunes media folder, which is within the itunes folder??
A Espinoza,
The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities. So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11. -
I purchased an audiobook from iTunes On my iPhone. I got a new phone and after the back up, the books I downloaded were not there. iTunes wants me to repurchase the books I downloaded. Is there a way for me to Redon load my already purchased books?

Make sure Books is turned ON.

My Mac Mini doesn't recognize my Avengers DVD--it keeps saying "Supported disc not available." I've tried other DVD's which work, but not this one. itunes and everything else has been updated to the newest versions. Help? Also...It doesn't recognize the digital copy DVD.
I have ALL the exact same symptoms as on my home computer.
It sure sounds to me like something on the iPod is broken. If it's under warranty then I would send it back for repair. If not, check out some of the web repair services, such as iPodResQ etc. -
