Do I have to have a Website URL to publish a paid book using ibooks author?

Is it required to have a website url to publish a paid book using ibooks author?

A "website" can be very easily created and at no cost.
I suggest Facebook can cater for  "feedback"  and "product support" although  Wordpress and  other similar blog sites offer a free service which is suffiecient for the purpose and a free /default page template makes it fairly easy  for anybody without knowledge of HTML or CSS - to create a page and  learn to add in much more.
The URL, if you did not know is the address line ie    http://www.apple.com/

  • I am new to epublishing but I wrote a book using ibooks Author.  I am now wanting to publish but I keep hitting stumbling blocks like--it asks if I have epub rights?  Do I?? Do I need to purchase them or are they implied if you are the author?

    If you are the author of the content, then you already have all the rights.   Of course if your book contains photos or other things created by other authors, you may need to acquire the rights to use those in your book.

  • How can I share iBooks authored by me using iBook Author on 2 different iPads synced to two different computors? Both iPads have different iTunes accounts.

    I am in the process of authoring an eBook using iBook Author.  The project is a work in progress and I want to share the draft with other collegues.  We each have our own iPads synced with other computers and we have different iTunes acounts.  I attempted to preview the book on the new iPad, but the iPad did not come up in the available device window.
    Am I missing something or is there a way around this?

  • IBooks Author. I am not allowed to sign in with my Apple ID on iTunes Connect when I am trying to publish my book in iBooks Author. I do not understand why because I have fulfilled the first steps creating an account and informed my IRS tax number...

    I am not allowed to sign in with my Apple ID on iTunes Connect when I am trying to publish my book in iBooks Author. I do not understand why because I have fulfilled the first steps creating an account and informed my IRS tax number...

    The recommendation is always to make another ID for use with a paid books account. And while I can't swear this is at the root of your issue, you should in any case reach out to Apple for assistance on this one, I think.

  • I have children's books in Japanese, Chinese and Arabic that I am trying to convert into epub formats that ibookstore will accept. My source docs are in ms word or pdf format. I want to use ibooks author for this purpose. Can anyone suggest a solution?

    Is there an easy way of importing the children's books into ibooks author? There is an image on every other page. The books has to be in fixed layout format.
    Any help will be sincerely appreciated. I understand that ibookstore will accept only epub 3.0 formats for Japanese titles. As I stated earlier, my objective is to make those language books available in ibookstore.

    The books has to be in fixed layout format
    If you mean keep the same as original, I wouldn't expect to retain that, sorry.
    You'd be obligated to either copy/paste in sections/blocks of text, images, etc. or insert from Pages/Word, but either way you can expect to have to rework towards whatever 'fixed' layout you need in an iBA book....that can mean significant work in some examples.
    You may want to work with a sample to find out the best workflow in any case.
    As for Arabic support, see this thread: Does iBook Author support Arabic...: Apple Support Communities
    Good luck.

  • I have created a book in ibooks author with a custom font when previewing on the ipad the special characters within the font do not appear?

    I have created a book in ibooks author with a custom font when previewing on the ipad the special characters within the font do not appear?

    'custom' font sounds like you may be working with a font that is unsupported on iOS/iPad.
    Supported fonts are found in the pull-down font menu in the toolbar. Authors are obligated (mostly) to stick to that list.

  • I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks author?

    I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks Author?
    I have tried converting the book to different files like, mobi, epub, pdf. By using an app on my iphone.
    I still cannot add it to iBooks Author.
    I'm stuck, Please help me!

    Either use copy/paste and then format/style as desired, or take it to Pages or WORD and insert chapters - which may still require resettling.
    If you're looking for a 1:1 port, with all styles and layout intact, you may be dissapointed, tho.

  • Help!! i have forgotten my password to my book on iBooks Author.

    i have absolutely no idea what it could be as my hint is Cartoon which doesn't help me at all. is there any way i can retrieve or reset this password?

    The password used to log in to a user account remotely is the same as you would use to log into it locally. You can also use your Apple ID, so try that.
    To change your login password read OS X Mavericks: Reset a login password
    also OS X Mavericks: If you forget your login password

  • I'm using ibooks author and have 2 ipads. I was able to use my 1st ipad to preview the book and it worked perfect. Then I needed to use my 2nd ipad and it didn't work

    The 2nd ipad is another designers in my department. I did all the tricks that normally make preview work. Unplug ipad, close ibooks, reopen ibooks, then plug into my computer, waited a few minutes, then hit preview. Still nothing?
    Plugged my first ipad back in to double check for user error and that works fine.
    By chance does ibooks autor only recognize 1 ipad?? the ipads have 2 different "owners" so would that cause an issue??
    thanks!

    When I had this problem it was because the iBooks on the iPad hadn't been updated to iBooks 3.
    It can't be a number of iPads issue as I've connected a couple of different ones here.
    If it's not this then sorry I have no other ideas!

  • HT4059 I can no longer read books using ibooks, i have the second gen ipod touch

    what other app can i use to read books other than ibooks this app is no longer compatible with my ipod

    So if you spent money on one of these two devices, its just a poke in the eye? No solution to simply wanting to read books you paid for? Is it being suggested that old ipods can't handle books?  There's no possible way to make them compatible?  Is Apple's solution "just buy the newer one" like everyone just has that kind of disposable income.
    EDIT: my mother has this issue, and she asked me "What is the solution to problems like this?" and I replied, "Android"

  • I'd like to use iBooks author to make a book. Thing is I don't have an iPad (yet) but would still like to make a book and read it on my iPhone 4 but I'm having a hard time doing that. Please advise.

    I exported it and saved a copy to my desktop. It appears as a folder. Then I dragged it to my other books on iTunes. Check. Then when I wanted to sync, that book was not listed. Please help.

    The Performa 6400 has an IDE hard drive, not a SCSI drive.  This means that you can use one of those inexpensive USB-to-IDE adapters that plugs into the drive's data interface and includes a separate power supply.  Because this type of adapter isn't platform-specific, you can buy one from a PC store for about $15.  The USB-to-SCSI adapter that you wish to purchase will likely cost you more than a vintage Mac sold in thrift stores.  An older Mac or Power Mac with an internal SCSI bus and ribbon cable with an extra connector would enable internal connection of the Quadra 950's hard drive.

  • Can a book in Ibook have its own passcode before it can be opened?

    Can a book in iBooks have its own passcode before it can be opened? (I wrote a book in IBook Author and exported it to IBooks. Need passcode for privacy reasons).

    Oh, that's too bad...well, let me know if they ever come up with that idea. Thanks.

  • Why do I have to use iPhoto to add photos to iBook Author?

    As a photographer my photos are all in Lightroom and I use Photoshop.  I don't own and don't intend to own Aperture and have long since stopped using iPhoto.  While I love Apple products and own lots of them, I don't want to have to maintain a separate system just to use iBook Author.  I've been wanting some time to play with this for ages and have some ideas for books that I really want to play with but ....  photos and video are an issue for me.  I don't use iMovie either, I use either Final Cut Pro or Premiere.  Please, please tell me there is another way to use media with iBook Author???
    Frustrated ....

    Hey Herbgarden,
    Media can be dragged from the Finder or from another application directly into iBooks Author.
    You can also add media files (such as images) to a page by dragging them from the Media Browser, the Finder, or another application.

  • Does anyone else have problems with built in website url links in a PDF not working in iBooks?

    I have several magazine PDF files that have lots of website url links built in to them.
    When I click the links when viewing the PDFs via iBooks they often don't work.
    However, the exact same PDF when viewing/clicking using other PDF apps like GoodReader work perfectly fine.
    Nothing else is different except which app I am using to view the PDFs.
    Anyone?

    It would appear iBook app doesn't support hyperlinks except within a document.

  • Does firefox 4 have the 'feeling lucky' google search feature when you type phrases into the URL bar? ATM it goes to google where i then have to click on website.

    if i type simply phrases in to the URL bar (i,e bbc) it use to take me directly to www.bbc.co.uk. but now in firefox 4, it seems to go to google.co.uk instead displaying all the searched items. I then have to click on the link i want.
    Is there any way of enabling this?

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
    [http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=]
    If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name
