EPub and iBooks Author

I have written a book. I have it in iBooks and ePub format. I want to upload both the formats to iTunes iBookStore. I have already uploaded iBook format. But what I want to do is upload both iBook and ePub in the same book. Like for example, if the iPhone user downloads the book, he/she should get a ePub file while iPad and Mac user should get the iBook file. How should I do that?
Link to my book is here: https://itun.es/us/G3CvZ

That would require two versions/books, not one hybrid, which you can't do in the store, sorry.

  • Different ISBN for iBooks standard, and iBooks author?

    Hey guys,
    Submitting regular iBook and iBooks author edition. It was suggested by Apple to use 'Extended" in the title, to clarify that the two editions are different. Cool beans, BUT, do I need an individual ISBN for each version?
    Big thanks for your time.

    An iBA book to the store does not carry an ISBN(13) requirement.

  • Convedrt existing epub for iBooks Author

    I have an existing book in both .epub and .prc formats, successfuly being used in other channels (including Kindle) by lots of readers and purchasers.  No need for me to recreate this from scratch, or import bits and pieces to re-assemble it.  (I also have a PDF version.)
    I'd like to create an iBooks version.  iBooks Author won't let me import the .epub or .prc file. 
    Do I need to convert the .epub file I have, or is it iBooks ready as-is?   If I need to convert/change/alter it, where can I find detailed steps for how to do this?
    Note: lots of advice on getting things INTO the .epub format, which isn't what I need.
    Thanks, -R

    Can you open in Pages? iBooks Author, as you've found, won't open a standard epub. If you can get it open in Pages or Indesign, then perhaps you can insert Pages chapters or copy/paste from it or ID.
    The file must be .ibooks, which is a hybrid epub format from Apple, when distributing/publishing via iBA.
    You might just want to not bother with iBooks Author and go straight to signing up for the store, then use iTunes Producer to upload a standard epub. You'll have to work thru the process to see how close you are for that process.
    As well, check this link for info on aggregators that may be willing to do the work for you:

  • Epub and ibooks version?

    Can I publish in iTunes the same book as a epub-file, created with pages, and as a multi-touch-book, ibooks-file, created with iBooks Author? What can I do that Downloads in iTunes for the iPad will be the multi-touch-book and for the iPhone the epub-file?

    The iPhone can't download a multi-touch book, so you don't to worry about that side of it.

  • Epub and ibooks

    Why does iTunes producer change the format of my epub file when I submit it to ibooks?? How do I fix this?

    trentharris wrote:
    actually no it doesn't, when I i convert it from pages to epub file must be when it changes it?
    Yes, it is Pages causing this.  I suggest you search/ask in the Pages and epub forums and see if someone there has a fix (this forum is for the iBooks Author app):

  • Ibooks 2 and iBooks Author!

    Hi guys!!
    I have some questions about the iBooks 2 Store and the iBooks Author, please help me further with them.
    1. Can anyone post self-made books for sale or for free download in iBooks 2 Store? (For example, students at a school that has made books on a topic, they learned about?)
    2. Is Apple strict with photos and other material taken from the internet, google or books etc? (Must every materials be selv produced?)
    3. How long does it take to get a book published in iBooks 2, so other students and teachers can download the same book?
    4. Does someone have a guide on how to publish the book in iBooks 2 Store?
    Thank you in advance!

    1.) See iBooks Author: Publishing and distribution FAQ - Support- but, yes, anyone...once they have completed the required agreements and been accepted into the program. There are separate programs for 'paid' and 'free'. You might want to utilize the method of putting free books on your own server and not going thru the store.at all, if the audience is limited to other students in your school, as an example.
    2.) Of course You are expected to be able to show proof-of-right-to-use should Apple ask.
    3.) If you go through the store it can from a few to several days. 'Text' books for edu can take longer.
    4.) When you sign up, you are able to download guides for iTunes Producer, which is the tool used to submit books.
    Good luck

  • Animation software and iBooks Author?

    I am looking at attempting to make an iBook with iBooks Author.
    I am quite an experienced Mac user, but iBooks Author is all new to me.
    I want my iBook to include various specific and tailored animations, so is there any recommended software to create these animations in, which would still maintaining the professional and crisp look that such animations should have, rather than having to employ an animator?
    Many Thanks.

    It may be useful to to  start with whatever file types are acceptable for use with iBA and format your animations accordingly.
    These links are in the iBookstore Asset Guidelines v 5.1   which will give you more information  if/when you download it.

  • Applescript and iBooks Author?

    Hi,
    Is anyone using Applescript to automate iBooks Author (IBA)? Since IBA doesn't have the same "track changes" convenience as Microsoft Word, we're seriously looking at automating the conversion from Word to IBA documents. I opened IBA's Scripting Dictionary within Script Editor, it doesn't look like there's good AppleScript support yet. Anyone have good IBA scripting resources?
    Thanks,
    Ted

    If you are in need  of "track changes" it might be best to create text in Pages first and then bring your final drafts into IBA.  I agree with your assessment of the AppleScript dictionary in IBA and hope to see improvements in the future.  Specifically, I'd like to be able to automate an accessibility inventory that identified issues to address.  We'd first need to develop a standard like WAGA 2.0 by W3C for web sites.

  • How can I add an ePub into iBook author?

    I am trying to insert an ePub file created on the App "My Story" into iBook author, any suggestions?

    Copy/paste
    Open in Pages - use iBA's 'Insert Chapters from Pages' menu.
    Either of those should work, basically. You'll need to check font substitution, etc.

  • Edge Animate and iBooks Author

    Hello,
    Let me start by saying that I love Edge Animate! It is easy to learn with plenty of support and examples. However, I am having difficulty publishing my file to iBooks Author. After publishing my animation file, when I drop it into iBooks Author it will not animate. In this particular animation I use GreenSock GSAP exclusively. Thinking it might be my file, I published one of Adobe's example files and it does not animate either in iBooks. My animation is below:
    https://files.acrobat.com/preview/9f94f319-56d2-43f6-a8b1-ff9acbc2cd1a

    Ok Sarah, I'm trying to solve the problem slicing the pictures and it seems the animation get more speed but I have to slice more.
    In meantime, I have a question: why if I use the 1MB size picture in an animation without symbol it works smoothly on Safari-iPad but, if I "wrap" the same image in a symbol, the animation is ver very slower?
    Many thanks for your help!!

  • The new photo app and iBooks Author

    I updated to Mac Os-x 10.1.3 and when opening iBook Author, in the media picker under photos the new photo app is missing to pick photos.
    Does anyone have a solution? or do I need to be patient for an update.
    Brgds, Jelger

    OK some progress to report as a temporary fix. 
    It looks like when you install the Photo update the relationship between iBooks Author and your photos is broken because the media pane shows no images.  I had the same issue as Jelger. 
    However, iPhoto is still in your applications folder so I tried opening it (as I prefer the ability to organise photos in the old program).  To my surprise the act of opening iPhoto seemed to restore a link with Author.  So now, when I open Author I get access restored to my iPhoto library and can use my old working method. 
    Of course, this won't last for ever.  Apple will not support iPhoto any more so someday an update might affect it.  Also, if Apple bring out a fix to link Author and the new Photo this would break the link I have re-established with iPhoto.  I'm also concerned that an update linking Author to Photo will make navigation more difficult.  iPhoto has a natural structure for finding images to  put in books whereas Photo does not.
    Anyway, for the time being everything works again.....  I hope this helps.

  • IA writer and iBook author

    Can I import copy from iA writer to iBook author without to much faffing about?
    Thanks

    The only supported import options are Word and Pages, AFAIK.
    You can of course copy paste text via the clipboard.

  • Snow Leopard and iBooks author - why no go?

    Yet again a new software product will not instal on a Snow Leopard machine. Is there any way we can instal and use? If not why not? surely its powerful enough to run this . .

    This is incredible! Ever worst if it is possible to install it bypassing its OS restrictions. Apple released iWork '09 in January 2009 and was perfectly compatible with OSX Tiger, replaced by Leopard in October 2007 and is also compatible with PPC Macs!. And Apple says that a program released 6 months after the replacement of Snow Leopard is not compatible?. Something is changing in its politics about backward-compatiblility.

  • EPub conversion of a book made by iBooks Author ?

    To get a book made by iBooks Author, into the iBookstore, a ePub format has to be "available" when applying for a iTunes account
    (Able to deliver book content in EPUB format, passing the latest version of EpubCheck)
    Does iBooks Author convert to ePub ?
    Or is this ePub format not required when using iBooks Author?

    Hello Niki,
    It's all seems a bit confusing doesn't it? Here's my explanation ... Historically, to add a book to the Apple iBookstore, the file needed to be in epub format and pass a valadition check. So, we all learned how to do that. Now, Apple has added a new format, .ibook. To make books in this format all you do is create a book using iBook Author. There is no need to convert ibooks made in iBooks Author into epub. They meet Apple's specifications. In fact, ibook is a type of epub.
    So now we all have to ways to get books into the Apple iBookstore: epub AND iBook Author.
    Clear as mud?
