For educational institutes purchasing ibooks for children

I understand the text books which are a fraction of the cost of a hard bound books and the ibooks should be live with updates as needed. 
But the classics, Dr. Suess,even Winnie the Pooh should remain  property of the school system buying the book.
If the authors are worried about the royalities, then maybe they should do what the music
industry did - lower the price to .99 and then I could see school system buying the book
annually.  But as it stands, this will hinder books being bought by schools for ipads. Or the burden of parents
having to buy the book themselves.  Just a thought....

Thanks for the information Vera.
Cheers
Kieran

    You can search Google, eBay, Amazon, and Craigslist to find an old version of iWork for a PPC Mac. Probably needs to be iWork 6 or earlier.

  • How do I buy an Ibook for a friend?

    I thought there was a way to buy an Ibook for a friend, that he could download on his Ipad. I can't find the instructions anywhere.
    Can someone help me?
    thanks

    Unfortunately, unlike in the app and iTunes store, you cannot purchase iBooks for others.

  • Does BCM work for Office online for education

    I have office 365 Academic and downloaded BCM.
    I've installed and used it for a few days. Now it stopped working, I can still see the link, but it's kind of frozen.
    Is Business Contact Manager supposed to work for
    Office 365 Academic and if yes, how can I fix the problem.
    If no, can I purchase it with a one-time payment
    and kind of download it from the web or do I need to change the plan and pay monthly?
    Here's my plan: 
    Yammer for Academic 
    The latest desktop version of Office 
    Lync Online (Plan 2) 
    Office Online for Education 
    SharePoint Plan 2 for EDU 
    Exchange Online (Plan 2) 
    Thanks for your help, 
    Kind regards.

    Hi,
    BCM should work well as you mentioned you had used it for a few days, and you also have the latest desktop version of Office. However, I haven't found any official documents about this, I will need to do more research on this.
    About the issue "I can still see the link, but it's kind of frozen." What link is it here you referred to? Let's see whether we can work together to fix the issue.

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
    programs.

  • Shop for education

    I noticed on the Apple website that if you're currently enrolled in college you can "shop for education" and get products for a cheaper price. Does this also take place if you visit an apple store? Or is it strictly an online offer?

    You can get the discount in an Apple Store as well as long as you have a valid student ID.

  • HT4059 My purchased ibook has been in a "downloading" state for two days, on both my library, and in the store. Any solutions?

    My purchased iBook is stuck in a downloading state. Any solution?

    Thank you. I know you're all users and not official Apple tech support, but I also know that the results of these discussions make their way up to search engines, and that Apple has to be aware that the issues discussed here happen.
    As for the link to contact the iTunes support, I have already used that. I have a "ticket number" in their system, and have signed up for Apple to call me tonight after work. I was on hold with them yesterday for about 40 minutes, but had to hang up when my children's doctor called (they are both sick).
    I was just venting, in the hopes that my venting would find others in the same troubled spot and we could share our frustratons together.
    Thanks for trying to help and for listening.

  • IBooks for Mac - purchase books as gifts

    I know in the past it was not possible to purchase books as gifts. I've seen in iBooks for iOS it is now possible to send a book as a gift; it is shown as an option at the bottom of the Featured screen.
    With iBooks for Macs running Mavericks, can you gift a book? Or, if you want to send a book as a gift, do you need to do so using iBooks for iOS?
    Thanks.
    Sheri

    I’m seeing the same thing on my MacBook Pro. My Mac mini, running the same OS X version 10.9.3 doesn’t have this issue. The issue exists across user accounts on the MBP.

  • Ibooks top sellers & other books are not available for us to purchase in India.

    Top seeling ibooks & other books within the ibooks store are not available for purchase in India except for some free classics.
    When will the topselleing books within ibooks store be available for us to purchase?

    No-one knows. It depends on when Apple decide to open an iBookstore for India.
    In the mean time, you could create an Apple ID in the US store without a credit card and use iTunes gift cards to buy things. Gift cards are available on eBay. (I have never done this, but heard a number of reports from people who have and were happy with this approach.)

  • I just purchased an ibook for my mac for the first time and it started with two pages then switched to one with notes and i can't change it back. Anyone else having this problem?

    I just purchased an ibook for my mac for the first time and it started with two pages then switched to one with notes and i can't change it back. Anyone else having this problem?

    Up the top where the three buttons are (red yellow green) are three images. Click on the third image that looks like a notepad (not the first which is a library book), and that should get rid of 'Notes'. To read using two pages make the window bigger.
