Delete books from iPad

How do I delete books from my IPad?  No matter how many times I select delete my books remain, they are not deleted.  I want them completely removed.

Turning "Show all Purchases" off merely hides the Purchased folder on iBooks, the books I don't want still appear in the "Books" folder.
Even if I move them to another folder, delete that folder and tell iBooks to <b>remove</b> those books, iBooks inexplicibly moves those books back to the Books folder. I deleted them from my PC, I even told iTunes <b>not</b> to sync any books, I've deleted iBooks, and yet lo and behold, despite all this, iBooks seems to have decided that what I really meant was that "show these books that haven't finished downloading no matter what I say"

    Can I delete books from my iBooks account?

    Yes, you can delete books from iPad and from all your OS devices.
    Open iBooks, select the list display, not the bookshelves display, then click on Edit at top right. Highlight the title to be deleted and "tick" the button to the left of the selected title. Then simply click the red Delete button at the top left. You will be given two delete options, so just select the one you require.
    Trust this helps.

    You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
    Here's how to do the recovery.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

    I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

  • I want to delete books from my iPad

    I want to add support to everyone's request to be able to delete books from my iPad.  If you are going to provide free books I believe I should be able to delete them since there is not a cost involved.

    I'm not sure why you think you can't delete books in iBooks.  I do all the time......
    On your iDevice, go to the iBooks app -> tap on "edit" and tap on the selections your want to delete and hit "Delete"

    You should be able to delete them from the bookshelf in the iBooks app via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf. If they show on the bookshelf with a cloud symbol on them then try turning Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'. Is that what is happening ?

  • HT5557 Permanently deleting books from iBooks

    Is there away to perminantly delete books from ibooks?  I've deleted them but their picture still remains in the "cloud".  I want them gone.

    You can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    After hiding them on your computer you might need to log out and back into your account on your iPad for them to be hidden on it - with iOS 7 I've been needing to do that for Apps, not sure if it also applies to books

  • Unable to delete photos from iPad with Image Capture or PhoneView

    I recently downloaded about 50GB of photos to my iPad. They are RAW+JPG. Some of the RAWs are from a new camera that does not have RAW support on the Mac yet.
    Using Image Capture I downloaded all the photos to my Mac. They all have the green check-mark next to them indicating they have been downloaded.
    After confirming that the images transferred without becoming corrupted, I went back to Image Capture and selected all, then hit the Delete button. I confirmed that I really want to delete them all permanently.
    Then a little floating window appears that says "Deleting..." and it stays like that for a long time. Eventually Image Capture simply loses its connection with the Mac and simply leaves this console message:
    5/22/12 10:58:38.494 AM com.apple.launchd.peruser.503: ([0x0-0x91091].com.apple.PTPCamera[9744]) Exited with code: 255
    Back on the iPad, I see that some of the JPEG-format photos have been deleted while the RAWs that went with them are still there. Meanwhile for many others, both the RAW & JPEG both still remain.
    Any ideas what might cause this? Is it because the Mac doesn't yet have support for the RAW file and therefore doesn't recognize it as an "image" file?

  • How can I delete photos from iPad but not iCloud?

    Before setting up iCloud, my girlfriend downloaded photos from her camera to her iPad.  We now have iCloud set up, but the photos on her iPad remain in the "Photos" album instead of Photo Stream.  I would like to delete the photos from the iPad to free up storage space, and move them to the Macbook.  I'm guessing that I would need to somehow move them to Photo Stream then delete the old album where they were stored on the iPad...  Any ideas?

  • Is there another way to delete photos from ipad 2, other than sync. i want to delete one or two photos every now and then.

    when sync, you lose all photos.. and have to start over.   i am using picasa to get my photos.. i noticed when you take a pic from the ipad 2, you can delete
    any photo you want.. i would think that it should be the same no matter how you put photos on the ipad... has any one found a solution to this.. 
    I will keep try different ways.. 

    You only lose photos when you sync, if you don't have the photos you want to keep on your iPad checked in Photos in iTunes.  And no, the only pictures you can delete directly from iPad are those you took with iPad.  All other pictures are managed through iTunes.

  • Deleting photos from iPad moments

    Does deleting photos from iPad "moments" delete them from all devices (like from Photo Stream) or only from the iPad?

    It deletes the photos from the Photo Stream so it will also delete it from the Photo Stream on all devices.

  • ITunes crashing when trying to sync books from iPad

    When trying to sync books from iPad to iTunes, iTunes crashes causing Microsoft error message. Any ideas?

    There may be a corrupted video or image file on your iPad.
    Try to download from the iPad using Image Capture instead and save the photos to a folder. If that succeeds, you can check the files for corruption before importing them to iPhoto.
