  • Can you share kindle books using family sharing?

    Can you share kindle books using family sharing?

    Hi Charlie42,
    Happy New Year!  The link below explains how you can tell which purchased content is available to share using Family Sharing.   Contact Amazon for more specifics regarding sharing their content.  The Kindle app itself may be shareable, but the books may be considered an In-App purchase, making them not shareable.  Amazon would be able to give you a definitive answer.

    Which purchased content can I share using Family Sharing
    After you set up Family Sharing, the eligible songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books, and apps purchased by family members will be available to everyone else in the group. Learn what you can share with your family members.
    If you turned on Share My Purchases, you can share most content that's also available in iTunes in the Cloud. You can share Music, Movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store. You can also share Books that you downloaded from the iBooks Store, and apps from the App Store. The availability of each content type depends on your country.
    There are a few things that you can't share:
    Songs added to iTunes Match from outside the iTunes Store
    In-App Purchases
    Items that are no longer available on the iTunes Store
    Items that were hidden
    Apps that aren't shareable
    If you're on an Apple TV, you can't access shared music.See if you can share an app
    Use these steps to see if you can share an app before or after you get it.
    App Store in iOS 8
    Go to the app's description page. Scroll down to the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Updates > Purchased > My Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.
    Mac App Store in OS X Yosemite
    Go to the app's description page and check the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.

    If one of your family members received their content through Apple ID for Students, you won’t see it in their shared purchases. This includes apps and other content distributed through the school.
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing. Content can be hidden by family members; hidden content is not available for download. Content downloaded from family members or acquired via redemption codes is not subject to Ask to Buy.

  • How can I move address book to numbers/excel?

    How can I move address book to numbers/excel? I tried to follow the instructions from a not-too-recent forum, but am not getting the same results. Help!

    Alas, the process doesn't transfer every datas.
    (1) Custom fields aren't passed
    (2) Due to localization oddities, even some standard fields aren't passed.

  • How can I move the book i am currently reading to the top spot on the bookshelf?

    I would like to move whatever book I am currently reading to be the 1st book listed on my shelf???

    Just like you can't rearrange a book on a real bookshelf while you are reading it, you can't move a book around on the shelf while it's open.
    Temporarily close the book with the Library button (tap, then upper left), then tap hold and drag the book you were reading to the top shelf.  Move slowly at first so it doesn't think you are scrolling or swiping.

    Can I buy kindle books dirctly from my ipad mini?

    Although you can't shop for Kindle content directly from the Kindle reading app, you can shop from the Kindle Store using the Safari browser and deliver Kindle titles to the Kindle reading app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.

  • How can I transfer kindle books to iPad?

    How can I transfer Kindle books to iPad Air?

    Get the Kindle app from the App Store, sign in to your Kindle account, and all your books will be there. Not sure if you actually have to download them first, but there you go.

  • How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    If your Verizon account is an IMAP account you can create folders on the iPad via the Edit button when you are in the account. If you see an edit button in the window where your inbox, draft folder, sent folder and trash folder appear in that account - tap on it and an Add Mailbox button will pop up at the bottom of the window. If there is no Edit button there - your account is not an IMAP account and you cannot create folders on the iPad in the mail app.

    Can rental movies be watched via Apple TV from an iPad 2?

    They can be rented on the iPad and sent via airplay to the Apple TV, if that's what you are asking. They cannot be rented on the Apple TV and sent to the iPad.

  • Can Spotlight search Kindle books?

    I've got a whole bunch of Kindle books on my computer (using the Kindle for Mac program). Is it possible to have these indexed in Spotlight?
    I can search within the Kindle app itself, but as far as I can tell Spotlight can't do it - but it'd be nice if it were possible. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    You have to first enable VoiceOver in Settings>General>Accessibility. Then, its only one line at a time as you highlight & move down the page.
    Amazon just added VoiceOver support to the app.

  • HT4059 How can I move a book from one device to another

    How can I move an iBook from one device to another

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:

  • Can't download kindle book to ipad 2

    I downloaded the most recent kindle app from iTunes (2.85, I think).  I followed the instructions: tap on Archives and choose book to download.  However, when I did this, I got an error message indicating that I need an update to kindle app and am referred to the iTunes store!  Has anyone else had this issue and if so, what do I do?  Thanks!

    Dave,
    Thanks for the URL.  I ended up exchanging a few email messages with Amazon people.  That didn't help so I was connected by phone to an Amazon support person in the US.  It's unfortunate, but the very first Kindle book I tried to download was a gift, and the gift giver didn't realize that he had chosen a Kindle book that can only be read using the Kindle apps for PC or Mac.  Unfortunately, my Mac operating system is too old (and who wants to read a book on a computer anyway?!).  So apparently there's nothing wrong with my iPad 2 or the Kindle app--I hope, anyway!  In any case, I've learned to be careful about ordering Kindle books!
    Thanks again,
    Xilan

  • I hate the nook book app can I move my books
