Can't load my iBook onto my iPad error

Hello,
When I try to load my iBooks Author created iBook (.ibook) onto my iPad via iTunes on my PC, it says it cannot load it because my iPad needs the latest version of iBooks.  However, my iPad has the latest version of iBooks installed, and has been synced.
error: "was not copied to the iPad because it requires a newer version of iBooks."
Yesterday I was able to load the same book file onto my iPad via a Mac Air, and was also able to preview the iBook on the iPad via iBooks Author on the Mac Air. (However today I am not able to do either because my iPad is not appearing on my Mac Air when connected - but that is an entire different support communtiy issue I suppose).
And today I am able to open the book on the iPad in iBooks via a Dropbox file transfer.
This concerns me because - although the book has been verified to open and function on the iPad via iTunes on the Mac and via Dropbox - if a PC user purchases the book via their PC they are not able to load it to their iPad from their PC. In addition, I am not able to proof my book via a PC when the Mac fails to recognize and connect to the iPad.
Thank you.

Yes, that is indeed an issue, and that is why I am asking for a solution to my problem!
As I wrote, the book tests fine on a Mac and the iPad, and functions and reads properly, and uploaded via iTunes Producer without error. The issue is with loading the .ibook file to the iPad via iTunes on the PC.
If I were to just use a Mac for testing and not have done the actions with the PC, all would appear fine and I would have never encountered the issue that I am having.
My issue is that I encountered the error using iTunes on the PC:
error: "book was not copied to the iPad because it requires a newer version of iBooks."
yet the iPad is loaded with the newest version of iBooks.  So my original question is, what's up with that?

  • Can't load same apps onto daughters iPad, she has her own apple id?

    I have an ipad with my own apple id and my daughter has an ipad mini> I set her up with her own apple id so i don't keep getting all her games onto mine. I've tried loading Lovefilm app for example which i have onto hers but it won't allow me. Any thoughts why this is happening?

    Go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

  • I cannot load more photos onto my iPad as I'm being told there is not enough storage. I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud so how can I now load more photos onto my iPad. Surely there is enough space!  Do I need to delete previous photos?

    I cannot load more photos onto my iPad even though I have bought an extra 20 GB storage plan from iCloud. As I am on holidays and taking loads of photos I thought  a good plan was to load them onto my iPad and then regularly back them up to iCloud. If I do this, do I then delete those photos from the iPad that I have backed up to iCloud and if I delete them from the iPad are they gone forever or can I somehow get them back from iCloud? I'm only new at all of this so I hope someone can assist me. I'd hate to lose all of my photos(I know they are still on my memory stick) but I would like to have them safe and secure and able to retrieved whenever I wish.

    You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
    Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
    Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
    If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
    On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
    Tap iCloud.
    Tap Storage & Backup.
    Tap Manage Storage.
    In the Backups section, tap your device.
    In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
    To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

    No, it only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app on the iPad, not from the iPad. You can copy photos that you've copied to the iPad via the kit to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • How can I load photos on a new iPad for a customer?

    Now this is something that I've done before. But iOS has gone through some changes since then, and now I can't remember what to do.
    Basically, I have a new iPad which was purchased for a customer. I need to load some photos on the iPad for the customer, then give to to them to do whatever they're going to do with it. Trouble is, I seem to remember being able to do this through iPhoto in the past, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore. Now it seems you have to go through iTunes, which means setting it up with my iTunes account, which I don't want to do.
    So, my question is, what is the best way to load these photos onto the iPad so that when the client sets things up they won't lose the images. Can I just set things up as usual, then manually sign out of my iTunes account on the iPad?

    I'd really suggest you not try to do this. An iPad can only be synched to a single computer, so if you sync the iPhotos on your system (and synching has always been done through iTunes), when your customer takes the iPad to his/her own computer and syncs, it will erase the content (i.e. photos) you put on the iPad.
    There may be workarounds, but I'd strongly suggest you just let the customer sync the photos him/herself. That's going to be a lot less headache.
    Regards.

  • How I can download my iTunes playlist onto my IPad mini

    Hi all,
    Does anybody know how I can download my iTunes playlist onto my IPad mini so that I can play it without being connected to WiFi? At the moment if I am not in a WiFi zone I can't play my music...
    Thanks!

    Apple devices can hold protected content from up to five different accounts, however updating apps purchased over more than one account (as far as I'm aware) requires signing in and out of each account. You may be better off continuing to use one account for your family, as I do, but disabling the options on each device for the automatic download of purchases made on the account, and in iTunes, the automatic inclusion of new apps when syncing from the library to the device.

  • How can I download an iBook from my iPad to my computer and reader kobo?

    HHow can I download an iBook from my iPad to my computer and reader kobo?

    You can't.  Books bought in iBooks, can only be read in the iBooks app due to copy right and DRM protection.
    If the Book is a non-protected e-pub format or a PDF you could transfer it to your reader normally.

  • Can't load any music onto my new iPhone 6

    Hi Everyone - I just bought my first iPhone ever - the 6, 128 GB - and am really frustrated that I can't load any music onto it. I try syncing through iTunes and nothing happens. It shows me a little grey circle next to each song that's supposed to be synced. Have tried:
    1. Deleting song duplicates using a software called Dupin
    2. Shutting down and restarting both my Mac Air and the iPhone.
    3. Unchecking 'Sync' under the music tab and then rechecking it after.
    Nothing seems to be working.
    Was super psyched about finally switching over from Android to IOS, and so far, it's not going so great!
    Photos have synced, no problem. But no music yet.
    Any suggestions? Please help!
    Sh

    I've been hoping 8.1.3 would fix this less than smart bug on Apple side, but no, no luck. Does anyone know the solution to this? I'd like to sync my music, please. Makes me think I should not have given up my iPhone 5 and iOS7 so fast.
