Buying a book on ibooks
Hi, I downloaded the iBooks app but it is only giving me access to free books. I won't let me search for any latest releases or anything and I have an account. Please can someone help me cause I am getting very irritated. Thx
Looking at this list of what is available to buy in each country http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599, you are only able to download free books in South Africa - so you won't be able to get any paid for books from Apple (Apple are only able to sell content that the copyrightholders and/or distributors allow them to sell). Have you got access to other ebook retailers in South Africa e.g. Amzon (Kindle) ?

Domicile and billing address are Thailand. I want to buy a book in Ibooks Switzerland. However this does not work. Because my Apple ID applies to Ibooks Thai only.
The best fix for your problem is to try getting your books from some other store which also has a free ereader app, such as Kindle, Nook, Kobo, GoogleBooks, Sony.

The only field that works so far is that under "info", "Artist" corresponds to "Author".
How about "Category"? -

I bought a book on itunes, and can't open it. tried to send it to my iphone so i could read it there and it won't let me carry it over. I have updated Ibook on my iphone. What do I do? I do not want to buy the book again.
You won't be able to open it on your computer, ibooks can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. How were you trying to get it to your phone, syncing it by selecting it on the iPhone's Books tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, or by dragging-and-dropping it from the Books part of your iTunes library over and onto the iPhone 'device' ? Another option is to try re-downloading it directly in the iBooks app on your iPhone via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in it (re-downloading).

I redeemed a gift card of $15 in my Itunes Store. I purchased one book in IBooks of $6.99 now the balance in my iTunes store is $ 7.10. How Do I use this balance to buy another book or music from my Itunes Store It is not using my balance? Whenver I try to make a purchase it is trying to charge my Visa Credit card. My Credit card is no more active. I want to remove my Visa credit card and use Itines gift card fro purchase in Itunes store.
TIA
Bikram Suri
<Email Edited by Host>Sir,
I thought So too but then I went to Itunes Library and try and buy a single song from an album for $1.29. Now my Itunes Gift card balance is $ 7.10 as I mentioned earlier. it still did not let me buy and kept trying billing my Visa card.
Should I restart my PC and Itunes and retry. What do you suggest?
regards

I have an ipad 2 that has about 300 books on the Ibook app. This weekend i'm buying a mini Ipad, now my questions is this: I don't want all of the books on Ibook on my new Ipad. Can I just download the books that I want on Ibook? How do I do that? Can anybody help me please?
In the settings you can choose to not automatically update content so you can manually manage the books on the mini.
settings, iTunes and app store, and turn off automatic downloads -
I am unable to buy books on iBooks.
The price shows up and sample shows up, but both buttons are greyed out and do not let me click on them. Why am I being blocked from buying? I live in Canada if that makes a difference?
I have exactly the same issue with iBooks; I have an Apple account in the US but am connecting to iBooks store from Belgium. This works fine for iTunes Store, but iBooks just greys out all prices (even if I have previously purchase books on iBooks).
A workaround is to purchase the books from iTunes on your MAC or PC and then just download them on the iPad. Not very nice to have a non-working iBooks on the iPad, but ... better than nothing. -
I have PC with Windows XP. I wish to buy a book but it says I need iOS with a specific version of iBooks to open the file. How can I open the product without using an Apple product?
What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
GarageBand 6.0.5
GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system. But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio. Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.

HT2534 How do I delete a credit card used to buy books with ibooks?
I purchased a book through ibooks with my ipad. I did not authorize a credit card to be saved and did not set up an account but it was there. I did not intend to purchase the book and assumed they would need to ask me for payment - the book went through. Now I do not know how to cancel this card so I will be asked for payment in the future.
Thank you for your usual wonderful help.You can't delete a credit card unless you replace it with another.
Simply enter some incorrect information if you want to stop the card being used.
