It will be tied to your iTunes account, you can't lend it, or transfer it, to somebody else's account.

  • Can you share/lend books that have bought from iBook with others users?

    Can you share/lend books that have you have bought from iBook with other iPad users?

    At this time, unless I've missed something recently, you cannot. You can load an iBook onto multiple iPads if these are all owned by your household though (you can't give an iBook to a friend, for instance, or a relative that lives elsewhere).
    If the ability to lend books is important to you, you may wish to purchase Kindle books from Amazon, though you'll want to confirm that the book has lending enabled - not all do - and that the Kindle app for iOS supports lending.
    This is one of the several advantages of physical books; the ability to loan them out or give them to someone else. Whether the book publishers will ever allow similar unfettered handling of electronic books is unknown, though I'd guess they'll be dragged to it kicking and screaming.
    Regards.

  • How can I share the apps that I have bought on iPhone? Both are with same user ID

    I have bought new iPad and have some apps that I want to share from iPhone. I am using the same user ID and wast able to figure out a solution for the same. Cn anyone guide me

    You can download the apps again on the iPad in the App Store - by tapping on the purchased tab and then find the apps and tap the cloud icon in order to download them again.
    If you want to add all of the app data and settings that you have already created on the phone for these apps - you will have to restore the iPad from the iPhone backup.
    You should transfer all apps on your iPhone and on your iPad in your iTunes library on your computer. The way to do that is, with your iPhone connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases from - the name of your iPhone. Then do the same with your iPad before restoring your iPad from the backup for your iPhone.
    Follow the restore with a sync with iTunes to ensure that all of the apps and other content did transfer to the iPad.

  • Can people share epub books via dropbox and use iBooks to read them?

    my sister put an epub copy of a book I'd like to read in my dropbox folder, but when i load it on itunes on my mac, then sync my ipad, I get an error message ( invalid file format) message.
    Is this a DRM issue? To me, it's the same as her buying a hard cover book and lending it to me when she's done.
    Thank you

    Not possible, Apple doesn't share your view on this question.

  • HT204081 Can you share purchased books with other iPads?

    A friend of mine wants to read a book that I have on iBook, is there any way I can share it with her iPad?

    ibooks are tied to your iTunes account and the can't be lent or transferred to other accounts - so unless she has access to your iTunes account then no.

  • HT1495 My husband and I share an i cloud account but each have our own separate ipads. We were told this would work, but now I can't find a book that I've downloaded on my ipad anymore. Where would I find it?

    My husband and I share an i cloud account but each have our own separate ipads. We were told this would work, but now I can't find a book that I've downloaded on my ipad anymore. Where would I find it?

    You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that.  Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card.  Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account. 
    Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud.  Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account.  To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
    Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

  • Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    Can I share my books on iPad with someone in family that has a different computer and email address

    If you got them from iBooks, then no. As far as I know, iBooks are linked to the Apple ID that downloaded them. If you got them via Kindle or the such, the apps may have a sharing function.
    If it's another app, then whatever  the rules of that app says is what works.
    If you're looking for e-books on a budget, check out your local library. Many have e-books you can check out for a period of time, and they either work with an app or are PDF files with some sort of time limit encoding in them

  • Can I share the books I have purchased with my wife even if she is not on the same account?

    Can I share the books I have purchased with my wife if she is not on the same account as I am?

    Then the answer is that each of you purchases and syncs from your respective iTunes accounts and Apple IDs, therefore to transfer any purchased item from one iPad to the other would require syncing that iPad with the other person's account, and that will mess up all your respective synced data.
    Of course you can swap iPads for bookreading, I suppose.

  • How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device? It still shows up as purchased books on "Icloud".

    How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device but still shows up as "purchased books" on "Icloud". I don't want to see some of these books at all. I can sort by one that are PDFs and ones currently on device, but it still gives option to show those old titles. Does anyone know how to erase your "Icloud" history, please?

    Nooooooo! lol... If I want to download again I will, I don't want an electronic trail. Plus when I have Ibooks open, sometimes I will accidently hit the item and it will immediatly try to download it. The problem with that is that its "Time magazines Best Photos of 2012" etc and it locks up my IPAD cuz of sheer size of the book. So I would like it gone from the history. Isn't there a way to clear the history? 

  • Can I share my books in my iBook app with an iPhone visiting on my network?

    Can I share my books in my iBook app with an iPhone visiting on my network?

    Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
    Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
    You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.

  • Can I share purchased books from iBooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    Can I share purchased books from ibooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    While that's an understandable desire, the publishers don't want you buying a book and sharing it with multiple individuals who others would buy it. The inability to "share" a book or pass it on to a friend or relative when you're done is one of the drawbacks of ebooks vs traditional print ... And consider that when you pass on a real book to your wife, presumably you're not reading it at the same time. :-)
    Some other ebooks do allow limited (time-constrained) sharing of books - Barnes & Noble, for one, I believe - and they have an app for the iPad that would allow you to read books on it.

  • HT204150 can i restore my contacts that i have lost since setting up icloud?

    can i restore my contacts that i have lost since setting up icloud?
    I can only see my husbands contact list and not mine. Can I restore mine?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can only restore them from a backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
    Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

  • HT4059 Can I share a book I purchased with a friend?

    Can i share a book I purchased with a friend and how?

    They are supposed to buy their own copy.  It doesn't work quite the same way with iBooks as with paper books.  You would have to authorize their device for your media and that would make things tricky in all kinds of ways.

  • How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them

    How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over.  Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy.  Thanks.

    Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
    I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
    Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
    And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
    I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
    Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software!
