Download iBooks Author 1.0/1.1?

Upgraded to iBooks Author 2.0 and it has rendered my book file unusable. Is there a way to download iBooks Author 1.0/1.1 after you have upgraded to 2.0?
I have tried the book file with a friend's iBooks Author 1.1 and it still works, so it's something with 2.0 that just doesn't like my files.
Thanks!

Thanks for the response, Tom.
The problem is with the videoclips. I have an 800-page book that has about 30 video and audio clips in it. After upgrading to iBooks Author 2.0, it requires videos be reformatted. However, when doing so, it says all vid clips are not compatible and I need to re-import them. Fine enough. But after that, even though I can move around the file and update content, if I go anywhere near a page with one of said videoclips, the program crashes. Even if select "Not Now" when opening the file, i.e., not reconverting the videoclips, the program still crashes if I touch any page with a videoclip on it.
I've tried everything. I've tried deleting just the clip from a page (it crashes), deleting the whole page with a videoclip on it (it crashes) or even copying a page with a videoclip on it into a newly created book (it crashes). So I can't convert the clips, I can't delete the old ones and re-import them, and I can't even copy my content into a new book file.
So I feel my only recourse is to open the file back up in iBooks Author 1.1, delete all the videoclips, then re-open in 2.0 as hopefully then the crashing problem will be avoided. Otherwise, I'm stuck with a file I can open but can't update. And recreating an 800-page book that took eight months to put together sounds like a nightmare. Nor should anyone really have to recreate their entire book from scratch, just to upgrade to 2.0?

  • How to download iBooks Author

    This seems like a ridiculous question, but I can't seem to make the download work.
    I'm trying to download iBooks Author. I'm asked what app I want to use to open it. I have no idea. I thought it was an app. I tried choosing iTunes and I was taken to iTunes, but nothing happened regarding "iBooks Author."

    Go to  
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ibooks-author/id490152466?ls=1&mt=12
    Click on
    Now you are in the iTunes App Store
    Click on the Install button.
    Okay, you've already done all this and it isn't woking. Is that what's happening?

    You would have to re download iBooks Author from the U.S. App Store. Launch the App Store then click the round flag icon bottom right side of the window. Select United States
    The issue with this is that your billing credentials (regardless of whether or not it's a free or paid app) must be associated with the same country where you reside. So you may not be able to re download iBooks Author in English.
    Post your topic in the iBooks Author community here.
    More iBooks Author users can offer feedback that way and may know of a work around.

  • Can i download ibooks author on laptop

    Can i download ibooks author on laptop. I have both a laptop (osx 10.6.7) and an iPad and can't seem to download iBooks Author to either.

    Yes, iBooks Author will on run on a Mac laptop, not an iPad. If your Mac OSX is older than the current version of iBooks Author allows, you'll be alerted to this when you try and download the app.
    On your laptop, go to the App Store (icon is a capital A in a blue circle), search 'iBooks Author', ten install. It's also a free download.

  • Where can i download ibooks author

    I can't find where to download iBooks Author. I've gone into the Apple Store via iTunes, and I've gone into the App store. Where is it?

    It is in the Mac Apps Store, which you access from the MAS app on your machine, not via a browser.  Look in Applications for the MAS app.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's because OS X Lion is a paid upgrade. The most recent OS X version is Mountain Lion, so I recommend you to upgrade to this version.
    First, make sure that your Mac is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is supported, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. While Mountain Lion is downloading, you can make a backup of your files, so you won't lose them if the upgrade fails.
    When the download finishes, the installer will show up, so follow the steps to upgrade OS X. It will upgrade OS X to 10.8.2, so you will be able to install iBooks Author and a lot of apps from the App Store. Check if your applications are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You have to upgrade to OS X Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • How do I download ibook author onto my iPad mini?

    I would like to share my books that I have purchased and stored on my iPad mini but have been unsuccessful uploading iBooks Author.  Any suggestions?

    iBooks Author is for creating iBooks, not sharing them, and Author runs only on a Mac. If you want your purchased iBooks on other devices you own, either re-download them on those other devices:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    or sync them from your iPad to iTunes on a computer, then sync them to your other devices.
    If you mean you want to share those books with other people, you can't unless you give them access to your iTunes Store account, and that would be a violation of the terms of the license.
    Regards.

  • IBooks author wont open?

    Hello everybody
    ive just recently downloaded iBooks author to create an eBook for school which would be due in about 3 weeks.
    after downloading from the Mac app store, there seemed to be a strike that goes around the application in my docks.
    i put it on my desktop and then back onto my docks to see if that would make a difference but it still had the strike.
    It bothered me but i ended up ignoring it as i clicked on the app's icon to begin working on the eBook project but i got this:
    Ive tried re-downloading it and also checking that the strings within the info.plist said "10.7.4" and so did the coreservices in my mac.
    help within the week would be helpful
    thank you.

    If  are sure your machine is within the conditions set by Apple, have you tried opening the Applications folder  
    A- to see if the app is actually installed and  B- clicking the  iBA app to open it?
    If the iBA app is showing in your app folder and does not open, I would suggest contact  support for either Mac or iBA or both for advice.
