Can I create a hardcover book

I have used iphoto and created photo books but now I want to create a hardcover book with mainly stories with a few photos. Iphoto provides very little space in its text boxes for text and I understand that ibook author will produce and ebook but will it allow me to produce a hardcover book of stories from the ebook format? Or is there a better Mac friendly programme to do this??
Thanks,
GH

If you can create an iBook Author book that you like, share/export to PDF, then give that to your printer.
You can also use the Print/Print to PDF feature...from iBooks Author, Pages, etc.

After creating a hardcover book in iPhoto how do you copy and create wire bound issues of the same book?

I created a hardcover book in iPhoto. Now, I want to make additional copies but wire bound instead of hardcover. Can't seem to make it happen.

Duplicate the book in case of problems (command-D) and click on change theme - select the same theme and the new binding -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
- check the preview very carefully in case any text reflows or gets cut off due to size differences

HT3412 When creating a hardcover book, is the flap paper or printed on the cover and inside the book?

When creating a hardcover book, is the flap paper of printed on the cover and inside the cover?

No. The book jacket is spearate from the rest of the book and inludes the photos and text boxes that you select in iPhoto. There are no photos or text printed on the hard cover, outside or inside. It's just like book jackets on commercial hard cover books.

How can i create a photo book from 2 libraries easily?

This is my situation.
I want to create a photo album of my child for the past year for parents/grandparents etc from the photos on mine AND my wifes macbooks. Before iphoto 9.5 i would simply look at her shared library from my iPhoto and use hers and my photos to make a book.
Now there is no shared library in 9.5, so after doing my homework on how apple wants us to do this now, I started a shared iCloud photostream ('kid' 2013) and invited my wife to it. I started adding photos from my library, and she did the same. All good i thought, but no. Becasue the photo stream only sorts by 'date added' not date taken, and in fact I cannot even see the date the photo was taken in the photostream, it means making a chronological photo book from both our photo libraries has now been made impossible.
Anybody got any other ways to do this?

Create an album, and then select all photos in the Shared Photo Sream and add them to the album. In the album you can see the dates of the photos in the Info panel. Then sort your album by date, and create the Photo Book from the album, not directly from the shared stream.

I've created a hardcover book but cannot add a map box of our trip to a page. Help!!!

I am unable to add a map box to my hardcover book creation in Aperture 3. Aperture help says some books do not offer this option but it does not tell you what books it's not available in. Any help would be appreciated.

I found only two predefined themes that offer maps - "Journal" and "Photo Essay". Those are the two themes showing maps in the preview you can see in the theme chooser panel.

The solutiuon is here.....
Apple have new requirements..... iTunes, iBooks Free and iBooks Paid each require a diferent ID - email address and passwords.
Apple do not seem to think about chaning the website everytime they change rules and requirements.
For World renowned high tech products business.... at times they do nothing to help their users!!

Can I make a hardcover book with pictures from my ipad or do they need to be on my desktop first?

I am having trouble putting pictures from my ipad onto my desktop. I could use the memory card of my digital camera, but I was hoping the folders would transfer intact from my ipad. Also, Can I make a Shutterfly type book directly from my iPad?

There is a Shutterfly app for iPad ... although I have no personal experience with it, I see it has not been updated in about 16 months, and it doesn't have such great reviews.
There is also an iPhoto app for iPad that probably enables book creation.
So there are probably other apps out there as well, given these two exist.

Can i create a hardcover photobook with iPhoto for ipad2

PLease help

Evening Wendy,
No, not yet.
Hopefully a feature Apple will add in the future, but for now you will have to use the full version of iPhotos on your Mac.

I have created 2 photo books and would like to merge them into one. How can I do this?

I have created 2 photo books and would like to merge them together. How can i do this?

You can't just merge them. You will have to add the photos of Book B to Book A and add new pages to A to duplicate those in B.
NOthing was said about copying and pasting - you add the photos from book B to book a, add pages to bbok a and recreate teh pages in book a
Another way would be to print book B to PDF sending the PDF to iPhoto and then placing the pages as full page images in book A

How can i transfer a iphoto book created on one mac to another mac.

how can i transfer an iphoto book created on one mac to another mac. i am aware of pdf saving but it doesn't help! need to see the iphoto book on other mac.
and how can i view in slide-show double pages instead of single pages?
anybody has an idea?

Stephan:
If you want to be able to view the book with iPhoto on the other Mac you'll have to copy the library containing the book to the other Mac. You won't be able to import that book into the other library.
Make a duplicate copy of the library containing the book and rename the folder "Book Library". Open it with iPhoto and delete all of the files that are not in the book. Then copy the Book Library folder to the other Mac and open. You can also burn the Book Library folder to a CD as a way to archive the book in case you decide to order another copy at a later date. I create a separate library for each book I create and order and archive it to CD when I've ordered.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

When creating a photo book how can I sort the photos shown by file name?

I am creating a photo book. The photos shown in the right hand column appear out-of-order. How do I sort them by file name? The album in iPhoto the book is based on is sorted by file name.

You can not - they are soreted by date
-- the only solution I have seen is to put them in an album sorted the way you and and then use the batch cnage command to redate them with a small invrement between so a data sort matches your desired sort -- I personally do not want to redate a bunch of my photos nor do i want to have to go through and un-re- date a bunch
suggest a change to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

Cannot create a large hardcover book in iphoto '08

I'm trying to create a large (8.5 x 11) hardcover book in iphoto. I've followed all of the directions (selecting the album, selecting "book" and then selecting the size and theme but nothing happens. The only book that I seem to be able to create is a size small softcover.
Has anyone been able to solve this issue? The large hardcover book option appears in the drop down but clicking it doesn't do anything.
Thanks!

I've not seen this reported - try renewing yoru iPhoto preference file - A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

.Issue with creating a photo book in Iphoto error message states some frames are missing images, but I've checked each one and from I can see they are all filled in. It won't let my buy the book though

Having an Issue with Creating a photo Book in Iphoto. I continue to get an error message when clicking on "Buy Book" The error indicates that I'm missing a frame or frames from the book. I've checked this many times and cannot locate the issue. The book appears to be complete from my perspective. What can I do now? I worked very hard on this and would hate to lose it all.

How did you check the book? Did you preview it?
See:
iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
Is that the message?
"your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos. You must either change the layout of those pages or place photos in those frames before you can buy this book."
The most common reason for this error is, that you have used a page layout that needs a background photo and you have not yet added the backdrop. Then the book is still showing some default grayscale image.
Check, if one of your page layouts is using this background:
Then you need to add a photo to the background of the page.
