Has anyone successfully been approved for a Paid Books account?

I submit my completed application for a Paid Books account over 7 business days ago, and I've yet to hear so much as a confirmation of its reciept yet. Judging by the existing conversations in this forum, this is not unusal, it seems.
Thus, my questions is this: has anyone successfully been approved for a Paid Books account? One success story would be enough to inspire some hope while the nail-biting waiting for a response continues.

It took a while to get approved and when I submitted the iBook, it took a while to have the book approved. But today it was approved. They approved the sample and the paid ibook at the same time (eReading: The Best Thing). I submitted them on the same day. It was indeed a nailbiting affair

  • While trying to upgrade to mavericks I received the following error during download "OS 10.9 has not yet been approved for software upgrade. Thanks! -SWN IT"

    Hello,  I am trying to upgrade an iMac to Mavericks. At the end of the download phase, a message pops up that says
    "OS 10.9 has not yet been approved for software upgrade. Thanks! - SWN IT" 
    The download stops, and I cannot resume. Made several attempts to start the process of downloading again and receive the same message/error.
    I am not familiar with any software that has the intials SWN or have SWN in the title. 
    Does this error look familiar to anyone? 
    Any clues as to how to find out the what application could be sending this message would be greatly apprciated.

    Is this on a Mac that belongs to a company or did you buy it used?

  • I applied for a Paid Books account, but did not receive a confirmation email.

    I applied for a Paid Books account, but did not receive a confirmation email. Now when I try to log in to upload another book, I get a message that says,
    "The iTunes Store account entered has already applied to distribute content on the iBookstore. To continue with this application, you must enter a different iTunes account." How do I even log in to the account that I already applied for???

    Did you use an existing Apple ID or create a new one just for paid books sales/distribution?

  • Has anyone else been required to change their iTunes account to an email but then can't buy or upgrade apps, etc.under their original account?

    Has anyone else tried to ungrade their iPhone or iPad and been required to change their apple ID to an email then not been able to upgrade apps under the old ID. how did you get Apple to fix it?

    Yes.  My ordeal started with the pre-order debacle when they cancelled my pre-order for no reason.  I got the email notification and called the number they gave in the cancellation notice.  I was told that it was a glitch in the system and that my order was not cancelled.  She had to fill out some paperwork to help them gather data on who was getting these erroneous notifications but that my place in line was not impacted - still guaranteed to arrive on release day.  I explained how important this was since it was my 15 year old son's big birthday present.  No problem.  On release day, I checked my online account and it still showed that the order had been cancelled.  I called in just to make sure I was still on for delivery and was told that my order had been cancelled and there was nothing that could be done about it.  The rep told me that if I wanted one that day, I'd have to go stand in line at the Apple or Verizon store like everyone else.  There was no offer to help me jump in the line whatsoever.  As you can imagine, I'm really ****** now that I hear there was, in fact, a way I could have been helped.  I used to love Verizon.  I, too, have been a long time customer.  It seems they have been taking customer service notes from the likes of Comcast and Time Warner.  I have completely lost faith in their ability to take care of me as a customer.  Like you, I am evaluating options to leave this sinking ship.

  • I want to create a Paid Books Account however, I already have a iTunes store account for creating Apps with complete contracts, tax,

    I have created some books using the iBook author and in order to distribute content on the iBookstore I have been told electronically that I need a new Apple ID and password that is different to iTunes store account which I have already activated and completed contracts, tax information and bank information valid until 2013?
    I want to create a Paid Books Account using the same email address, tax information and bank information. This has been most frustrating, as I cannot get passed the sign in section and there is no contact person I can speak to. I was of the understanding the iTunes connect account and the Developer programs which I paid good money for is all what I needed to be paid for selling iBooks on the iBookstore???
    I only have one email address and wish to also use it for the Paid Books Account. I have books ready to be exported and published.
    I am also having trouble locating and downloading iTunes Producer. I understand I need to have the Paid Books Account active to access the iTunes Producer program. Please help.

  • Support for setting up Paid book account ibook author

    I want to set up a pid book account for ibook author. did get a US EIN (I am German), got meanwhile an ISBN, and filled the form for a paid book account some 6-8 weeks ago. No response at all ydet from apple. I thenwanted to set up another account with another ID (as I am thinking my first try went into a black hole) - but then the syygtem said then my EIN was already used by another user.
    The Genius bar in my apple strore could nto help, and the support from itunes neither.
    Does anybody can give a hint whom to ask in Apple what happened?

    Hi Lrwill,
    If the apps that are on your son's iPad were purchased under his Dad's Apple ID, then signing your Apple ID onto the iPad will not help you with updating those apps.
    Also, if the iPad was sync'd with his Dad's iTunes library, then hooking it up to your computer/iTunes library, will require you to reset the iPad, and everything that was loaded under the other Library and Apple ID will be wiped out.
    Can you provide a little more info about what was set up under which Apple ID and what iTunes library the iPad was sync'd with?
    Cheers,

  • Terms to be agreed when creating a Paid Books Account and submitting an iBook to the iBookstore

    Hi there everyone
    I'm advising a client on the range of terms to be agreed when its creates an iBook using iBooks Author and then submits the iBook for publication on the iBookstore (using a Paid Books Account, not a Free Books Account).
    From what I can glean from various sources, it seems the client needs to agree to:
    the iBooks Author 2.0 License Agreement, when downloading the iBooks Author app from the AppStore;
    the eBook Agency/Commissionaire Distribution Agreement (when creating a Paid Books Account through iTunes Connect); and
    the iTunes Connect Terms of Service when downloading iTunes Producer (the separate app through which one publishes an iBook to the iBookStore).
    There are two things I'm not sure about though. The reason for my lack of certainty is that I don't have a US Tax ID and so cannot replicate the Paid Books Account sign-up process to the stage where I'd have to agree to the various terms and conditions. My  questions, please, are:
    Am I correct in thinking that a person is required, when creating a Paid Books Account through iTunes Connect, to agree to the "eBook Agency/Commissionaire Distribution Agreement"?
    If so, can anyone email me please ([email protected]) or provide a link to the latest version of the eBook Agency/Commissionaire Distribution Agreement? (I've seen a version online (http://outskirtspress.com/iBookStore_v3.pdf) but don't know whether it's the latest version; I'm thinking it's probably not).
    When signing up for a Paid Books Account, is one also required to agree to the "PHG Terms and Conditions" and the "Publisher Program Terms and Conditions" that are attached to them, or is that optional?
    Many thanks for any help. Much appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Richard

    Any documents/agreements are obtained as part of a contract and not allowed to be distributed in an otherwise uncontrolled manner, which if done, could violate the agreement/contract.
    You need to participate in the process to:
    1. Access the latest, binding versions of all agreements/contracts
    2. Possess a tax id/SSN to sign up.
    If you have questions about the process, you should contact Apple directly.

  • How can I transition from a free books account to a paid books account?

    I created a free books account (based on my existing itunes ID) to post 2 books just to test out the process.  Now that I feel like I know what I'm doing, I'd like to update a paid book, but can't figure out how to go about doing it.  I created a second Itunes ID to create a paid book account, but then the SSN I used for that account was the same (obviously) as the one I used for the free account and that's where I ran up against a wall.  What to do now?
    Thanks!

    You  will need to retain your free books account - its not 'transferable" in any way.
    You will need to apply for for a Paid Books account, new "username" email address is required.
    You will need to fulfil the  requirements in the Contracts and Banking section of  your "new account" - you can use the same bank and credit card details and you will to apply to the USA tax office for an EIN.
    I used this.

  • Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

    Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't.  If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

    Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
    The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
    AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
    A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
    That is all.
    Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

  • TS1424 has anyone not been able to get the installer to properly load and get a message like: This installer is intended for 32 bit versions of windows. Please download and install 64 bit iTuines installer instead? and even if you uninstall and reinstall

    Has anyone not been able to get the iTunes installer to load properly and get a message like this: This iTunes installer is intended for 32 bit versions of windows. Please download and install 64 bit iTunes installer instead. I have tried repeatedly to get this to load, I have uninstalled iTunes completely and reinstalled and still get the same message. I have windows XP and a brand new ipod touch which I am trying to load.

    Yes, it's come up a number of times. If you look to the right under "more like this", you'll find threads that may offer useful suggestions.

    Either import your Songs into a new clean library, or rebuild your existing library - it would appear your current library is corrupt.

  • Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Although I gave up investment tracking for personal reasons (I had used Quicken Deluxe 2002 for many years for that reason), my understanding is that the new Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion is completely the same feature wise as Quicken 2007 for PPC.  It will run on Snow Leopard, too.
    For $15, why not download it and just try it and LET US KNOW!

    It works fine here.
    I noticed that I don't have /etc/php.ini, just php.ini.default.
    If I copy php.ini.default to php.ini, php does not work anymore, but if I just put

    in /etc/php.ini and restart apache, it works fine and the timezone is OK in phpinfo().
