Is book free downloaded for iBook really free forever? Or like Newsstand,monthly charge?

free books in iBook app are from the project guternberg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Gutenberg
so they will be free until the whole international copyright system is overhauled

Costs of books for ibooks higher

Is there anything to do about the higher costs of books for ibooks? Can you read books purchased at Barnes and Noble on Ibooks? It's just that it's hard to purchase from Ibooks when I can pay $4.99 for a book that costs $6.99 on ibooks.

You can do it, but it requires breaking the law. You have to strip the DRM protection from the eBooks purchased elsewhere, then use a programme to convert the B&N eBook into an ePub (which is what Apple uses). It is extremely complicated, and not for the faint of heart -- plus, you have to scour around the internet for the programme.
But it can be done.
BTW, with all due respect, you haven't thought out your gripe correctly. I'm talking of the part of your post above, where you intimate that you should be able to read books purchased at one site, on an Apple device, which has its own store.
If you went to Barnes & Noble and bought a book, but then lost it, and your only option was to buy it at another bookstore, would you tell them, "I want to take this book home, because I already bought it at another bookstore"? Of course not. Your purchase rights begin and end with the particular item you bought, once.

Free Book for English Expert

I'm about to publish the beautiful, so worthy of reading The Richest Man in Babylon.
This book has been edited, by me, in digital media, and in print, line by line, word by word. However, after the 1000th quotation mark, within quotation mark, within quotaion mark (third person quoted within one paragraph) . . . In short, I would still like another set of eyes.
So, I am offering one free print book to be sent to your place of work or residence; read the book, relax, enjoy (as it is clean and beyond useful). In exchange, I would like your eyes. You must know quotation rules like the back of your hand.
I will forever be grateful.
It is a great book.
I will be back with the link.

Can't delete free books from iBooks

I tried to download a bunch of free books from iTunes. The download just won't work. Finally I decided to just try and delete them from my bookshelf. Nothing I tried worked;
1) Selected the undownloaded books in question and pressed "delete". Nothing happened. They are in the "Books" folder, not "purchased"
2) Set "Show Purchased" in the iBooks settings to off.
3) Deleted the iBooks App from my iPad. Deleted the books in question from my PC. Even went into the folders and deleted them. If I've deleted the content from my ipad, and from my computer AND told iBooks NOT to sync from iCloud AND told iTunes NOT to sync any books at all, then how is it that iBooks is still showing me books I clearly do not want anymore on my device. No matter how many times I uninstall and reinstall iBooks, those holding images for the books in question still keep coming up.
It really doesn't say much about a book app when the simplest thing (deleting unwanted books) needs a visit to the support pages.

Books not actually on the iPad will not show up unless you have Show All Purchases set in teh setting app. Even then they will be indicated with a small cloud icon. These will always be in teh Purchsed collection, but can also show up in other collections if you choose to place them there (moving to another collection doesn't effect the Purchased collection).
To delete a book, tap Edit (upper right corner), tap each book to be deleted, Tap Delete (upper left).
If for some reason this doesn't appear to be working correctly, two things to look into:
Open the Settings app > iTunes&App Stores. Check to see if automatic downloads are tuned on for iBooks. If so, turn it off.
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
Since you have such heartburn over the need to visit this site, you may want to consider having a look at the user guide. It may prevent the need to do so: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf

Free Books from iBooks store

Does anyone know how to search for free books other than searching for "free" which brings up a lot of books that aren't free along with the free ones. It has been well over a month since I have checked, but if I remember right there used to be a "free" link down at the bottom of the iBooks Store in the Quick Links category. Where did it go?

Yep. If you go to "browse" you can click on the top right where it says "Free books"
Or, in Chart, if you page through the paid books, you get to a list of the top selling free ones.
Here are two free novels to get you started.

Free books on ibooks?

Purchased the hobbit for ibooks, then went and checked my collections and under purchased there was a whole bunch of books that I did not purchase so i clicked on one, thinking it was a sample, but turned out to be the entire book. Was I then charged for this?

No record of any other purchase.The book I clicked on thinking it was a sample was Grimms's fairy tales.
there is 6 other books that are listed with the blue "New" banner on them waiting for me to click and install them(just as the Grimm's fairy tales did). They dont appear in my Books collection, only when I change the collection to Purchased(which The Hobbit is the only book that should appear there) Yet I have no history of purchasing any of these, have gone thru iTunes and checked purchase history and nothing.
Thats why i wondered if they came free with something?

Where are books for iBook reader ?

So in iTunes, I search for 'kaplan' as they are giving away 100 ebooks. In the results iTunes just shows audio books. I change my search parameter to 'book'. Still shows only audio books. In the Books section it always just says: " Books related to your search can be also downloaded on iPad with iBooks." LaaTeeDaa.
Is this stupid program for real ?

You download them from Kaplan using Safari. I don't believe they are in the iBook Store.
Safari will then ask if you want to use iBooks to open it.
So I guess I have to spend the next 2 hours on my iPod searching and downloading the 100 free books
They show up in iBooks. Or the nook app if the get them from B&N.com
Just curious as to why you would download all 100 books since the selection is so varied?
-> http://www.freekaplanebooks.com/free-kaplan-ebooks/
No not with Safari. There is no download link there. And they would have to have 3 different ones for the 3 different readers they support.
I had to use the iBook app to search and download one-at-a-time. I want all 100 because they are diverse. And free for a limited time. A few for my step-son's ipod (he is not allowed internet access on it) for SAT test practice.
King_Penguin: Thanks for that tip. Now how do I NOT have them sync'd to my ipod yet still have them on the computer for later usage ? In fact, that question in general for anything in the Library as I find no menu (dropdown, contextual or right click) to tell iTunes not to put things on the ipod yet keep it around for doing so in the future.

HT4059 See no free books on iBooks except old fiction. Why is this so. A matter of all kinds to be free. Please advise on how to use correctly.

See no free iBooks except old fiction. Why is this so. Please advise on how to find and use correctly.

What country are you in ? (This page shows what content types are available where.) Some countries currently only have free books, to be able to sell recent/current books in a particular country the publisher's need to grant Apple a license to do so. Have you got access to other ebook apps/stores in your country ?

Delete free books in ibooks

how can I do this for books that I no longer require, please

Alternate method:
Delete the books from the Books Library in iTunes, telling iTunes to send them to the trash.
Sync your iDevice to iTunes and the books should be deleted from it.

Buying books for iBook on iPad from other countries - any ideas?

Can anyone tell me if they have been able to buy books from other countries for iPad if they are not available in their own country. I am from Australia and want to purchase "Cold Comfort Farm" by Stella Gibbons. Thanks Elizabeth

If it is not available in your country it is probably because Apple has not yet negotiated the required distribution rights. The fix is to use another ereader app, like Kindle, Nook, or Googlebooks.

No, currently the XMLQuery object's setting affect the output of the top-level query, but not the nested rowsets. You could use an XSLT transformation to transform this into any other XML format you require.

Downloading a free book to iTunes on my pc.

So, I'm on my laptop this morning, checking out my emails, and here are my BookBub bargains for Tuesday. Normally there's a free book for Kindle, and I'll just click on it, tell Amazon I want to buy it with One Click, and it'll ask me which computer I want to download it to. (And, BTW, if you like to read, sign up for BookBub. And check out Project Gutenberg and librivox.org. But forget the librivox app for iPad; it doesn't work. Download from your desktop or laptop and sync it to iTunes.)
But this morning I found one for iTunes. When I clicked on it, it determined that I have a PC, and told me I needed to download iTunes. I have iTunes. Do I have to go to iTunes to download it? If I check out this email on my iPad and click on it, will it download to the right place? (I've had problems trying to download things before that just kinda disappeared [that was a librivox book, and I was in Safari], presumably while still taking up space in memory.)
Thanks, guys. MargretRose

No if you already have iTunes you don't need to download it again to download any of the free offers from the iTunes Store. Depending on your browser you may need to install an extension in order for product links in your browser to automatically open iTunes, and then open the iTunes Store at the correct page. Alternatively you can open iTunes yourself, such promotions are normally visible from the front page of the iTunes Store.
Note that iBooks cannot be opened directly on your Windows PC but need the iBooks app on an iOS device or Mac computer.

Only free Books ??

Not all countries can purchase books yet from the ibookstore. Instead try Kindle, Nook, Kobo, or Googlebooks stores (they have free readers for iOS devices).

On the home page (discussions.apple.com) you should find items How It Works and Tutorials.
There is no app for these forums, you need to use a browser.
