Yes,but you'd think if Nook has it why not Ibooks. I'm just frustrated new at this.  Thanks for the reply.

  • HT4059 Not everything in iBook (iPad) will sync to iTouch , why?

    Not everything in iBook (iPad) will sync to iTouch , why?

    Do you have any playlists? If so, I think for some reason the playlists may be causing the issue.
    I had exactly the same issue (though for my iPhone) however I managed to get around it without blasting my iTunes music folder.
    This is what I found:
    Initially in iTunes, I had "Entire music library" selected - I had songs that were missing.
    First, I unselected "Sync Music" and then did a sync to clear out my iPhone.
    After the sync to clear everything out, I went back to iTunes and reselected "Sync Music".
    I then selected the "Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres".
    I then only selected everything in my "Genres". Reason being is that it was the shortest list. I also made sure all my songs were associated with a genre.
    I also made sure none of my playlists were selected.
    After the sync, I had all my music!
    I hope that helps you and anyone else who had a similar problem.

  • Why is Siri not available on the Ipad 2?

    Why is Siri not available on the Ipad 2?

    Only Apple could tell you that definitively.
    Make your own assessment.

  • IBooks 1.3 on iPod Touch 2G (4.2.1) dictionary not available for this language

    I have an iPod Touch 2G, running 4.2.1.  I also have iBooks 1.3.  Everything is running well, but unfortunately I do not have the built in dictionary for ebooks that I have bought on the iBooks store.  I have 14 books from their store, but I am not able to look up definitions of words with the iPod Touch.  I also have an iPad 2, but the dictionary works on it (with the same books).  Could someone help me with this situation?  Or, could someone point me in the right direction.  I cannot contact Apple, since my iPod Touch is no longer in warranty.  Thank you.

    I have the same problem with the same iPod Touch 2G. It keeps saying "Dictionary is not available for this language". Before the update, it was working fine...
    Somebody knows how can we go back to an older version of iBooks?

  • In built dictionary not available after resetting iphone 4

    The in-built dictionary on my iPhone 4 running iOS 6.1.3 has disappeared unexpectedly. It was running perfectly fine but it disappeared i think after i reset my phone. i cannot fint the "define" option in Safari or in Notes. It does appear in iBooks but the dictionary page says "no definitions found".
    how can I download the dictionary? please help me as i read books an my iPhone a lot and really need the dictionary!
    Thanks in advance,
    MAC

    Siri is not available on the iPhone for because Apple didn't make it so.  None of us users here know the reason; speculation is prohibited by the Terms of Use of this forum.
    Regardless of the reason, it is NOT available except for the iPhone 4S.  If you want Siri badly enough, get a 4S.  Complaining doesn't change anything, and none of us here really want to listen to it anyway.

  • Does anyone have any idea when Apple will have one Global App store. In South Africa the apps available on the App Store are pathetic, eg. Angry Birds is not available to Iphone/ipad users here, however android users can purchase this app no problem.

    If this continues, with the competition in the smart phone/android market, South Africans will start to can Apple devices due to the pathetic App Store for South Africa. The most popular games and Apps are not available here and until Apple get smart and make a Global Store for purchases not matter where you are in the world, Apple will continue to loose support. I have everything Apple, but am tired of the run around to try and buy good Apps.

    If you will allow me to say so ... Calm down. 
    It really isn't the fault of Apple.  The developers of apps, the writers of music and of books all have copyright or exclusivity deals through agents in order to market their creations.
    These arrangements are usually conducted on an individual national basis and as a result what would be allowed in one country is not allowed in another if that is what the agent wants.
    Apple has to negotiate through this mire to get the best deal it can yet always accepting that many other interested parties want similar privileges.
    So you can see, like politics, world wide agreements are just not possible.

  • Ipad Apps not available for original Ipad

    I own an original Ipad. I am a photographer and have discovered that many apps are not compatible with my Ipad but only the Ipad 2. Apple should address this issue and require app designers to make them compatible for both the original and Ipad 2. The original Ipad owners made the Ipad 2 more successful and Apple should support us being able to purchase all apps for our Ipads. This is only fair.
    I own two Macbook Pros, one new Mac Pro, two iphones and two ipads. I am a great supporter of Apple and they need to support us.

    ...Apple can make the app developers do whatever they want. They can require all apps be compatible with both ipads. But I think you know this.
    Yes, in fact many developers already complain that Apple already forces them to modify their apps.  Note how many developers complain that their apps are rejected, thus requiring changes to the app.
    But Apple also wants to sell more iPads and iPhones.  So Apple could also force developers to make a camera based app only work with camera based devices.  Oh, wait, they seem to already do that.   Or perhaps it only applies to "photographers". But then, you would think that a "photographer" would want to sell their non-camera iPad1 and get an iPad2.  (I'm a photographer and I know I want an iPad2, although I'm quite satisfied with my iPad1.  But then, I also prefer to edit my pics while sitting at my computer rather than the iPad since, as a photographer, I already have an array of editing tools on the Mac and PC.)
    Don't blame Apple for making a better iPad that actually will fit your needs better.  Go get an iPad2 and be happy rather than whine and try to prove you're right, which you are not.  (And if you're going to complain that you can't afford it, then as anyone else will tell you, sell your iPad1.)
    (And you of course will want the last word, so I will end here since it does not appear that you are not being open minded and refuse to even consider any other viewpoint.)

  • IBooks error - "dictionary not available for this language"

    I am using English on my iPad, and reading a book in English using iBooks.
    I know the dictionary used to work, but now it does not. I suspect it happened when the iBooks app was updated recently.
    Does anyone have a fix?

  • Why is Google Earth not available as an iPad app in Malaysia?

    Hi
    So Google Earth is available on OsX, iOS 4.3 for iPhone and all versions of windows, but despite the links to the iTunes store I cannot install it on my iPad whilst in Malaysia. I know from experience that Europe and the US is fine.
    The best I get is annoyingly unhelpful "your request could not be completed.....Ok?"
    Not even available as an app in iTunes or the app store. Anyone know what the deal is. Is it blocked in Malaysia? Even the Malaysian Internet links to it do not work.
    Thanks

    The App store is different in each country.  And you answered your own question, if you can't access it on a computer, you'll not be able to access it through the App store.

  • Dictionary not working in ibooks ios8

    I just upgraded my ipad air with ios 8.
    Returning to my read I can't get the dictionary to find any definitions any longer. The downloaded dictionaries shows on the list with a circle (non clickable) but i can download new languages and they still work. I have tried restarting the ipad and closing ibooks. I guess I cant reinstall ibooks anymore since it so conveniently now is part of the os.
    What to do to fix this?
    Stian

    Fix for Ibooks Dictionary malfunction in IOS8
    1.  Open itunes.
    2. Choose library, apps and list.
    3. Right click iBooks in the list and choose "Show in Itunes Store."
    4. Once your on the iBooks Itunes Store page, choose "update."
    5. After the iBooks update downloads, connect iPad to computer, make sure iBooks on the iPad is closed, and click choose, File, devices, sync iPad.
    6.  After sync completes, eject iPad.
    7. Open iBooks on iPad, highlight a word, click define, manage and previous dictionaries should be back and functional.

  • HT201084 Family sharing - content not available only on iPad 2

    Situation:  My wife and I are trying to do family sharing with two apple ID's.  Mine as the organizer, wife as member.  Both set to "share my purchases".  Prior to this, we only had one apple ID, so the wife's is new.
    My setup:  iMac, iPad Air 2, iPhone 6.  Wife:  macbook air, iPad 2, iPhone 5.
    Sharing is working on all devices except music and movies/TV shows on the iPad 2.  Shared calendar and reminders are working on the iPad 2.
    Have tried all the tricks in the articles, i.e. all settings seem to be correct.  Have downloaded a free app.  Have signed out and back in.  Reset the iPad as new and started over.  Nothing working.

    I've used the Kindle cloud reader app (http://read.amazon.com) in the past and had problems with it, probably the same as you're getting with it not being able to store many books (and I couldn't find a way to increase it).
    The 4.3 gig that you are seeing is the amount of cloud storage that you have for backups for your iTunes account i.e. how much space you have left for photos, documents etc in the cloud - that won't affect what you can store on your iPad, including in the Kindle cloud reader app.
    I now just use the Kindle app from the store (I currently have about 40 books downloaded from my Amazon account into it), and I haven't had any prompts in it to use their cloud reader. Can you remember where/how the cloud reader prompt appeared ?

  • Is their a Mandarin dictionary available in ibooks?

    I like to check on words as i read, including words in Mandarin. But no Mandarin dictionary is available.

    The iBooks dictionary only has English and Japanese, and there is no way to add others.  To ask Apple for more, use the feedback channel:
