Can't add textbook to iBooks

I'm on iPad 2, iOS 4.3.3, I've dowloaded iBooks2 and the textbook Life on Earth. But it doesn't copy on my iPad. Firstly iTunes wrote there theres a crash, then I found out that I need latest iTunes otherwise it won't copy. So I got latest iTunes, but now when I try to copy it iTunes writes me that I need latest iBooks as for copy the textbook on my iPad. Now ***? I already got the latest iBooks, I've deleted it several times and downloaded again - nothing helps, somehow my iTunes doesn't think that I got iBooks2.
So what should I do? I have enough space on iPad. I didn't try these things on the latest iOS and I didn't try to download Life on Earth through WI-Fi, without using a PC. Now, I'm not ready to try iOS 5.0.1 and don't have Wi-Fi in nearby, hope there are other ways of solving the problem.

Unfortunately, you have to have iOS 5+ to use iBooks two and the new text books.
They're all built on each other and 5.0 is the min requirements for the iBooks to work right which is the min requirement for the text book to work right.
It's just like you can get wifi syncing without 5.0.

  • Can't add books from iBooks Author

    I have 4 books that I exported from iBooks Author and tried to copy them to iBooks, however since I upgraded to Yosemite, I can only add one book and after this it tells me for the subsequent books that the book is already in the library (as above) even though this is not the case.
    I am using a Mac Pro with all the latest updates.
    I am also experiencing the same issue copying the files from Google Drive / Dropbox on to the iPad

  • I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library.

    I have an iPad 2 with iOS 5.1 and iBooks version 2.1.1. I have 64GB of storage, 80% is used. iBooks is using 250MB of storage. I have a large number of PDF files in my iBooks library. At this time I can not add another book or PDF file to my library.  When I try to move a PDF file to iBooks the system works for a while...sometimes the file appears and than disappears....sometimes the file never appears. Is ther some limit to the number of books or total storage used in IBooks?  Thanks....

    Hi jybravo70, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you may be experiencing issues on your non iOS 8 devices because iOS 8 is required to set up or join a Family Sharing group.
    The following information is located in the print at the bottom of the article. 
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    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.
    Have a great day,

  • Can't add any books to ibook on mac.

    I try to add a book but to ibooks on my mac however every time an error message comes up saying that "either the former doesn't exist or the folder containing the latter doesn't exist." I lost all of my books and can't add any new ones. I've tried to restart the program, and my computer, and i've tried other files outside of the folder but nothing happens- i get the same wrroe message. I've attached a picture of the error message.

  • Can't add pdf book to iBooks

    Upgraded to iOS 8.3 on iPad Mini, using Mavericks and iTunes 12,1,2,27 on early 2008 MacPro
    Can't add pdf books to iBooks like i used to . I normally use the add to library command to achieve this but books don't show up
    Following numerous tries and un plugging iPad Mini and restarting iTunes, i searched for my iPad library in my home lib ray to discover the books i wanted to add are now in the iTunes Media folder (where my music is) but as unknown artist. I have separate libraries for my iPhone and another iPad and these show the books folder which seems to have disappeared from my iPad folder.
    Also when trying to synchronize iTunes said it lost connection and could not save my iPad Mini numerous times.
    Also the general info bar at the bottom of my iTunes window is now all confused as to the size and contents of my iPad Mini. I have about 25000 photos and it says i only have 235Mb of photos where it should be closer to 15 GB. The miscellaneous portion in that bar is rating this content at about 16Gb.
    Can someone help ?

    This probably isn't helpful, but what you did does work in 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    I dragged one of my PDF eBooks into iTunes and it showed up in the Books section.
    But when I clicked on it, it displayed it in Adobe Acrobat, just the same as if I'd clicked on the original file itself.
    I don't see any advantatge to importing eBooks into iTunes, especially PDF eBooks ... unless you're syncing with an iPhone, I guess ... even then you'll need a good pdf viewer on the iPhone unless you convert the PDFs to ePubs.
    You might also post your problem in the 10.7 Lion discussion group.

  • Can I add intel chip to ibook G4?

    Can I add an intel chip to my ibook G4?

    Jane:
    As previously noted, the answer, unfortunately, is no. You may be able to pick up a reasonably priced MacBook on eBay or Craigslist or a refurbished intel mac on the Apple site.

  • How can I add page turn animation to my iBooks Author 2.2 file? Can I add html / a plugin?

    How can I add page turn animation to my iBooks Author 2.2 file? Can I add html / a plugin?

    I concur with Tom. That feature is not available with iBooks. If the page turning effect is important, you could consider developing a fixed layout Epub 3 instead.

  • I can not see or download textbooks in iBooks from China.

    I am trying to download textbooks in China but they do not show up. I bought this iPad 2 in China. I have another iPad that I bought in America and I can access the textbooks with no problem. How can I get these textbooks on to my Chinese iPad?

    Whether you can see and download textbooks depends upon where your iTunes account is based - as far as I know they are currently only available to US accounts

  • Can I add extra RAM on a mini?

    This may be a stupid question, but here it goes...
    my iBook G3 recently past away (a sad, sad day, I might add), so to save a little money, I decided to replace it with a Mac Mini until I can invest in a new iBook. While I eagerly await its arrival, I was wondering...
    Can I install the 128 MB RAM card (that came with my iBook) in the Mac Mini? Not a huge deal if I can't, but I figured since it got erased before the entire hard drive fried, maybe I could still make use of it. Thanks!
    iBook G3   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    No. Your Mac mini only has one RAM slot. It will come with 512MB of RAM installed. If you want more, you will need to remove the 512MB module and replace it with a 1GB module. That is the maximum amount of RAM you can install. Here is some info on memory.

  • Add code snippets iBooks author

    How can I add code snippets to an iBooks author project?
    Is there a way to format a piece of text so that it would recognize Objective-C language?
    Or is there a way to insert a code snippet in some sort of box that will make it stand out from the rest of the text?

  • Can't add iChat agent password to keychain...

    Here's one for you veteran iChatters...Is there some reason why I must type in the password for iChat agent each and every time I reboot? I've tried adding it manually to the keychain, but it still pops up with that annoying dialog at startup. It's the only app that does this now.
    And is anyone else having problems connecting to iChatters who are still using the Panther version or those who are using AIM screenname? Since I've upgraded to Tiger, I've had no problem connecting to other Tiger users, but nothing but problems with Panther/AIM users. Kind of frustrating, since I had no problems at all before upgrading to Tiger.

    Hi there!
    The ichat dialog message requesting the password for ichat agent comes up whenever I reboot and then start up ichat. As I just did after installing the latest security update. It is the only app that doesn't offer a "store in keychain" option and I can't add it manually to the keychain. Arrgghh!
    And yes, I am running 1.4.2. Haven't updated the popup choice for awhile, I guess.
    Just also found out that the person I'm having the most problems with is running 10.2.8 and ichat 2.0 on an ibook G3. Guess he'll just have to bit the bullet and upgrade to Tiger.
    Thanks for your reply!
