Download apps for macbook pro

Does anyone know what app and how to download it to read books on the MacBook Pro? I downloaded a book for my daughter to read with no issues thru iTunes but can not figure out how to have her read it... and I'm beyond frustrated right now...
Please advise if anyone can help!!
Thanks
Alex

You can download audiobooks from iTunes Store, but you would buy ebooks from the iBook Store.  And any ebooks purchased through iBooks can only be read using iBooks on an iOS device.
Other ebook vendors offer their own readers and apps, including apps for OS X and Windows - Barnes and Noble's Nook app, Amazon's Kindle app, Kobo's ereader app,... there are several.  You can also use some of these to read DRM locked ebooks from other vendors using Adobe Digital Editions software to "authorize" a book (eg. to authorized a Barnes and Noble DRM locked ebook to be read in Kobo's ereader or vice versa).  Most of them will also be fine with DRM-free ebub formatted ebooks.
But if you buy ebooks from Apple's iBook Store, you will need to use iBooks on an Apple iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch - there is no version of iBooks for OS X nor Windows).

    First, use speech recognition. It's installed on OS X, so you don't have to install a third-party app. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11258?viewlocale=en_US

    Can I download iPhotos for macbook pro 10.6.8 and re-install?

    If your computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, it'll have come with a DVD. If needed, phone Apple and order a replacement.
    Unless you got Mac OS X Server with it, which is highly unlikely for a portable computer, that DVD will contain iLife.

  • My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.

    My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?

    This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.

  • SPSS - where to download one for macbook pro that works

    Hey Guys!
    I have a very big problem, for my uni it is required for me to use SPSS and of course my university is mac unfriendly.
    So I have a question if anyone know of the link for a free trial version of SPSS for Macbook pro 10.6.8.
    Take Care

    Welcome to the forum, mladizi!
    Remember that Google is your friend.
    The IBM website has a 14-day trial of version 21.
    Comparison of versions 18-21 for Mac OS 10.5-10.8.

    It may seem that way if you see more PCs than Macs. Consider checking with the University's IT Department or Bookstore to see if they have a relation with some of the retailers of academic version software such as OntheHub. These retailers offer discounts on purchase or rental of many types of software such as the SPSS GradPack. See the links to Student versions on that web page.
    Good Luck!

  • IPhone app for MacBook Pro?

    I downloaded the IBook app for my Iphone and am enjoying reading books. I see that when I sync my phone, the books from it are moved into ITunes and show up there, but they cannot be read on the MacBook Pro.
    Is there a version of the IBook reader software that is available for the laptop so ebooks can be read on it as well as the IPhone?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    at the moment the iBook reader is only avaiable for iPhone and iPad not for OSX.
    It's up to Apple to decide whether they will make an OSX version or not.
    Regards

  • HP1020 Download Software for MacBook Pro

    I have an HP1020.  I need to download the software so I can print from my MacBook Pro.  Apple told me to go online and download the software for HP1022.   I can't figure out how to do this and I don't know what "Lion" or "White Snow" or whatever is.  All I know is I need to print and I can't do this.  Could you please help me?  Thanks!

    So for this printer and this OS, all you need to do is download the drivers from Apple Software Update. Here is a document that should help guide you through...
    HP Products with Print Drivers Supported in OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, OS X 10.7 Lion, and Mac OS X 10...
    Let me know if you need more help.

  • What is the best mail app for MacBook Pro that is not the req mail app

    i am having nothing but issues with the mail app.   i use office 365 but cannot sync my contacts to it. so what is a better app to replace it

    Go to OWC and purchase a drive and an enclosure. Put it together yourself. Takes about five minutes and a screwdriver. Or you can purchase one already complete from them if you prefer.
