EPub Books? On my Windows 7?

I am a Windows 7 user, and I have iTunes on my computer.
Not too long ago, I bought books off of iTunes in the hopes of being able to read them, but for whatever reason, I can't seem to be able to view the contents of the books.
I installed things like Adobe Digital Editions, tried Chrome software that dealt with reading ePub books, and done eveythign else, yet whenever I load up the books, they either always give me completely blank pages, pages with glitched-up text or code, or some other error (in some cases, however, it does display the table of contents clearly).
Please help. I feel like I wasted my money buying unreadable books.

Sorry, but books sold in the iTunes Store carry copy protection and cannot be read on anything other than an iOS device, as it says right on the purchase page in the iTunes Store:
You cannot read them on your Windows system.
Regards.

    For this problem, you need to deauthorize and authorize ADE again.
    Launch ADE
    Help -> Erase authorization.
    ADE will be deauhorized.
    Now again AUTHORIZE ADE
    Help-> authorize computer.
    Error will be fixed !!

  • Epub books show up in ipad on itunes but do not show up on ipad. Also can not delete the books from ipad in itunes

    epub books show up in ipad on itunes but do not show up on ipad. Also can not delete the books from ipad in itunes

    You have no choice but to lose your data back to the last backup you made.
    Here's how to do the recovery.  Note you may have to try to get into recovery mode more than once to succeed:

    I'm sure next time, you'll be more vigilant about keeping current backups.

  • I am trying to download an epub book from the library, which I have been doing for almost a year. Now I am being asked for my adobe id, which I enter and I get an error message stating Adobe Activation Request Error:2004.. What's this ?

    I am trying to download an epub book from the library, which I have been doing for almost a year. Now I am being asked for my adobe id, which I enter and I get an error message stating Adobe Activation Request Error:2004.. What's this ?

    I downloaded Blue Fire Reader and it requested an adobe id. I clicked on the link that was in the error message stated http//adeactivateadobe.com. Found out that if the date and time on my Ipad is wrong that it won't let me download a book. I was off 5 hours. I reset my clock settings and adobe id let me download a book from the library. I am back to using Overdrive and adobe again on my ipad.
    Thank you.

  • 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 no longer access epub books since iOS update

    Until recently I had a number of books and PDFs installed on my iPad that I accessed through iBooks.  During a recent iOS upgrade ALL of them were removed from my iPad, but were still available on iTunes.  I have been able to move all of the PDFs back to the iPad, but am having no luck with the books.  These are all epub books that I downloaded through iTunes. 
    Any suggestions on 1) why this may have happened and 2) how I can 'recover' these books?

    Shortly after posting this question I found the solution (http://ow.ly/jnab1).  Still not sure why these were all cleared off the iPad when the iOS was upgraded.  They survived a number of previous upgrades.

  • How do I copy text from an epub book?

    how do I copy text from an epub book?

    Just some observations.
    PDF page content that is an image (and music notes may very well be that in a given PDF) then all that can be exported is the image.
    Only an image editor can "edit" such eh.
    As to textual content - once in TXT, RTF, DOC or DOCX yes, expect to have to do "cleanup"
    Of course there's the old school alternative that is always available.
    Paper copy beside you as you transcribe to a fresh word processing file.
    Be well...
