Epub books directly to ibooks mac like previously iTunes

how can i get epub books to go directly to ibooks mac like they used to automatically go to iTunes?

I don't recall ePub books (barring those from Apple), ever being added automatically to iTunes. To get a book into iBooks control click the book > Open with ... iBooks.

How to view pictures on epub book purchased from iBooks

How to view pictures on epub book purchased from iBooks?

The important thing to remember abuout iPhoto is that it's a database. And like any db, the data must be imported into it. By default, when you import the pics to iPhoto they are copied into the iPhoto Package File in your Pictures Folder. If you have NOT changed the default, then yes, you can trash the pics outside of the iPhoto Package File.
Most people do this.

Had iphone backed up to itunes on Mac Book Pro. water destroyed mac. downloaded new itunes on PC. want to sync iphone to itunes on PC. When clicking sync a pop up asked if I'm sure i want to erase what is on my iphone and sync with a blank itunes! No!Help

How do I sync my phone to a new blank Itunes without erasing the data on my iphone?

iTunes now gives you the option to install previous purchases on your devices. Sign in to your iTunes account on your computer and go to the iTunes store. Once there, click on the purchased link on the right side of the store screen. It will take you to a screen that shows all of your previous iTunes purchases. Music, TV shows, Movies... Download whatever you want on your new computer. If that isn't an option you want to try then plug you iPhone into your computer and open iTunes. When your phone shows up in iTunes, click on it. At the bottom of the screen you should be able to select the option to manually transfer music. Then select the music you want from your phone and copy it over to your computer. At this point if you aren't logged in to your iTunes account you will be asked to sign in to play the songs. Hope this helps.

How do I put my ePub books back in iBooks?

I purchased some hardcover books from Baen Books and got free cds with the epub format of the books on them.
I downloaded the ePub to Dropbox, and selected open in iBooks to add them to my iBook library. With the most recent downgrade ("update?") to iBooks, all of those books were deleted, and when I went to Dropbox to put them back, I am told that this file format is not supported.
Do I have any alternative other than switching to Android? I would rather not switch, as I have bought just about every Apple computer since my Apple II, (I even had a Lisa) and currently have 4 iMacs, a Mac Mini, 4 iPads, 3 iPodTouch, and 4 iPhones active in my household. If I switch, I cannot just buy one device, as I do not want to support multiple platforms. So I will have to replace all my devices.

Problem Solved!
I was able to download NeoSoarBook reader from the App Store and download my deleted books that way.
I am really not wanting to convert to Android!

Read .epub book w/ DRM on Mac Computer

What Mac OS X 10.7 compatible application(s) is required to read a book (.epub) with DRM purchased/downloaded in iTunes to my computer iTunes book library?

These are user to user help forums and none of the participants represent Apple. Apple reads but never responds to feedback. They really don't dialogue with users the way you are perhaps expecting.
I think everyone here believes it would make sense to have an ibooks app for OS X. Nobody knows why Apple has decided not to do that (and to leave this field open to other stores), or has any info on whether they might change their mind in the future.
There have been countless postings about this over the last 2 plus years -- you perhaps did not see them because this is a forum for people who produce ebooks. The forum for people who read them is at

HT201272 transferring non ibooks books from iPad to mac.

how can i transfer non ibooks books in my ibooks app on my ipad to my ibooks app on my macbook air?

You should be able to copy them over by connecting your iPad to your Mac's iTunes and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (that should copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and then in the iBooks app on your Mac do File > Move Books From iTunes.

IBooks Mac has stolen all of my books

I have (had) quite a few books in my iBook on my iPad. After synching it to my new Mavericks system, it appears that iBooks for Mac has taken control of my book collection and I can find no way to resync my collection with iBooks on my iPad.
If this is documented somewhere, it's very well hidden.
I've got a trip coming up and really need to get my reference books back onto my iPad.
Drag and drop in iTynes was so much easier...
What's the magic and where is it documented?

Resolved this through a convoluted reset of iTunes...
Close iBooks on Mac
Close iTunes on Mac
Copy ~/Music/iTunes Music Library.xml to the desktop
Delete the iTunes Library.itl file from that same folder
Open iTunes
Select "Add to Library -> Import Playlist" from the File menu
Select the xml file that you copied to your desktop
(Wait...)
Once completed, open iBooks on your Mac
Select "Move Books from iTunes..." from the File menu
(that step may not be necessary, but just in case...)
Attach iPad
Open iPad and select Books from the tab bar
Check "Sync Books"
The same books in your iBooks library on your Mac will now show up on your iPad's sync list
Click Sync
My books. PDFs and epubs are now back on my iPad.

How do I get an epub book into IBook to read on my iPad

I have a lot of eBooks, used on a Kindle and have tried to get iBook to see them on my iPad. It does not.
1. I converted from azw to epub with Calibre
2. I tried dragging and dropping the file onto iTunes->iPad->Books and onto iTunes->iPad which didn't work.
3. I used Add to Library from the File menu and they imported ending up in iTunes->Library->Books.
4. I tried dragging each book from iTunes->Library->Book to iTunes->iPad->Books and onto iTunes->iPad and it would not work
5. I Synched my iPad and cannot find any of the epub books with iBook. Nothing but Winnie the Poo which came with iBooks.
What and I doing wrong?

There are some threads on the use of Calibre with the iPad on their forums. This thread might be of help:
http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=79093&highlight=Ipad
and if not searching that forum for "iPad" may turn up additional suggestions.
Good luck.

Can I mirror my mac book pro with apple tv like i can do with my iPad 2?

Cn I mirror my mac book pro with apple tv like i can do with my ipad2.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No that's not possible

Can you connect the TC directly to a Mac Book Pro thru either USB or Ethernet?

Can you hook a Time Capsule directly to a Mac Book Pro thru USB Port or Ethernet or?
So that you can speed up the transfer time??
It's so slow compared to directly connected FW800 and Thunderbolt Drives...
It's painful...
Thanks

Ethernet, yes. Connect the Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule. This should be 4-5 times faster than wireless. Be sure to turn off wireless on the Mac.
USB,no.

I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad. How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream.

I made a photo book in iPhoto and would like to transfer the book to my iPhoto on other macs and iPad. How is this done and can it be synced between devices like photo stream?

You can create a Quicktime movie slideshow of the book's pages and share that. Here's how to get your book into an iPhoto slideshow and then export as a Quicktime video:
1 - While viewing the book type Command+P to start the print process.
2 - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
Note: If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
3 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
4 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. Immediately select all of the photos in the new album and sequentially renumber them as "Page " using the Batch Change ➙ Title to Text with the option to add a sequential number to each title. This is to let you put the pages back in the correct order in the event they get sorted incorrectly.
Now you can proceed as follows: create the slideshow in iPhoto and export it out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large (480p with iPhoto 9),
Happy New Year

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.

I sprayed glass cleaner directly on my mac book pro screen. Will the screen be permanently 'spotted'????

Sprayed glass cleaner directly on my mac book pro screen - will the screen be permanently 'spotted'????

No chemicals should ever be sprayed on the screen of a Mac - they have coatings that can be damaged. Only use plain water, on a clean cloth that is only slightly damp and do not wipe over the edges of the glass.
How much damage was done depends on what kind of cleaner was used and how much was sprayed on.

To reinstall the original OSX in your rMBP, boot the MBP using the COMMAND-OPTION-R keys. The display should show a picture if the planet earth and you will be connected to the Apple servers. Make certain that you have a solid Internet connection and follow the instructions.
