E. o. Wilson iBook won't open after download.

E. o. Wilson iBook won't open after download. It appears to have completely downloaded, but it won't open.

Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit iBooks and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If neither of these things help, delete the book and download it again. As long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with, you will not have to pay for it again.

  • Ibook won't open after download. instead, a different book opens

    I am downloading .ibooks that I created in ibooks author onto my ipad. I am not using itunes, rather I am downloading from my server through the web and opening them in ibooks. however, when I try to add a new book i wrote, it opens a different book and the new book won't show up even though it is downloaded and prompted to "Open in Ibooks". help please.

    that may happen when you created the book by duplicating a previous book you built (the preferred method is to save the previous book as a template, and create a new book based on that template). You have to delete the previous ibook from your iPad and then you can download and open the new one.

  • ITunes won't open after downloading 7.0

    My iTunes won't open after downloading 7.0, what should I do?

    replying to Robert
    I get a Windows error code of 0x666D743F
    First see:
    iTunes 7 for Windows: iTunes fails to launch with an unknown error
    There are some other possibilities
    That error has been known to be produced by having Total Recorder or the Volume Logic plug-in installed on the PC.
    For a workaround for Total Recorder, see:

    To check on the Volume Logic issue, see:

  • ITunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?

    iTunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?  And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

    It would help to know versions here.  I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed.  Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago.  If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses.  Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

  • HT1338 exe files won't open after downloaded from Safari on my Mac OS X 10.4.11

    exe files won't open after downloaded from Safari on my Mac OS X 10.4.11

    I use the free Unarchiver: http://unarchiver.c3.cx/unarchiver
    I have just tested it on a self-extracting Windows Internet Explorer and it opened it first time on my Mac.
    However, as you have been told, normally Windows executable files cannot be opened or used on Macs.

  • Garageband won't open after downloading Lion, what should I do?

    I downloaded Lion from the app store, now my garageband won't open. Also I use Pro tools 8.4 and that won't work either!
    I would appreciate any help or advice.

    If it is the third party apps crashing - try downloading another app - any free app is fine. See if that resets the other apps.

  • CS6 won't open after download..

    I just downloaded the cs6 Beta, and it won't open.. a pop up states * Archive Verification Failed * does it not work any more?

    Sorry you are having trouble. For starters, did you download it from here? http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/photoshopcs6/
    Did fail upon installation or launch?
    Try downloading it again. When you download the program, compare the file size to see if you got it all.

  • Some books in iBooks won't open after iOS 8.1.3

    I have an iPad Air and today I just updated to iOS 8.1.3. When I go to open ebooks or pdfs in iBooks, only certain books will open. When I press on the icon after about 10 seconds a little the sunburst icon in the middle appears, cycles through and then disappears.  I've tried restarting my iPad several times but I'm still encountering the same problem.

    I updated my iPad mini 2 this week to iOS 8.1.3.
    Unfortunately, all PDFs and many EPUBs disappeared from iBooks.
    Next i realized, that iBooks content is not saved in iCloud as part of the backup.
    For me, iBooks with EPUB and PDFs was a main reasons to buy more Apple products. Loosing them during an update is such a disaster.
    Hope, that Apple will solve this ASAP and spends a tiny fraction of the last quarter earnings into software quality ...

  • IBooks won't open after adding a new PDF

    This topic has been posted before and there are really no resolutions that I can see. I added a 2 page pdf to iBooks and it closes as soon as it encounters the pdf on the shelf. I've tried just about everything suggested. Finally I tried deleting it in finder and iTunes and then deleting iBooks and downloading a new iBooks but it just won't go away. I am SO happy that most of my stuff is on Kindle. I won't use iBooks for anything further. Kindle is great and always there for me. It's terrible all the posts and no help from Apple.

    Hi there Eyes-only, I'll see if I can help you with this problem.
    Try some basic trouble shooting steps first to see if they help the problem:
    • Multi tasking quit iBooks (double click the home button then slide ibooks away)
    • Perform a hard reset on your device (hold down the power button & home button until you see the apple logo)
    If these fail to solve the problem, you're going to have to move onto some more time consuming steps.
    • Backup your device then entirely reset & erase it, then setup your device again restoring it from your backup via iCloud.
    • Failing this, attempt a software reset using iTunes
    Let me know if any of these steps resolve the problem, or get you any further to a solution.
    Kind Regards.
    - Mike.

  • Itunes won't open after download!!!!!!!

    Well when i opened up my itunes a window popped up asking me if I would like to upgrade to Itunes 7.6.1....I decided to do it and it worked perfectly....LAter on I closed down itunes only to realise i could no longer open it!!!...The following message came up in another window "Quick time failed to initialise (error -2096).Quick time is required to run itunes.Please re-install itunes)...I then went on to install Itunes again only to be greeted with the message that the library of songs was not compatible....i updated itunes to where it was prior to the problem but the same message appeared...Can anyone help me??????It would be preferable not to lose all my music as i have done once already in the past 4 months...Any advice welcome PLEASE????

    This is not much help but exactly the same thing happened to me after responding to the request to upgrade to 7.6.1. The upgrade went fine. Although I don't get any error messages Itunes simply doesn't load. I also would prefer not to lose 4gb of music that I have compiled over the last year. What is the matter wiith this upgrade? Is there any Apple support on this thread?

  • ITunes won't open after downloading version 8.0.2

    I downloaded the 8.0.2 version of iTunes on Nov 25 and ever since I have not been able to open iTunes. Every time I try I get "The application iTunes quit unexpectedly". If I click relaunch the same message pops up. Reporting it to Apple does nothing and clicking Ignore does nothing. Even when I connect my iPod touch I get the same message.
    I don't know what to do to make it work again and I'm getting really frustrated.
    Please Help!

    I have had the same problem - I have uninstalled iTunes per the proper approach - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1224 - after having used Disk Utility and getting rid of the preferences. Still no joy. It is a mixed blessing to find others out there with the same problem but no solution. We all seem to need help.
    Curious thing is, if I go back to iTunes 6, it works!
