How can I prevent my books from deleting?

My elderly aunt has an iPad and I recently bought a book for her to read on iBooks, but I am afraid she might delete the book by accident. How can I protect the book, or prevent its deleting?

Yes, I know,  but the OP wants to prevent documents from being deleted, not apps.

  • How can I prevent Time Machine from deleting a backup?

    I just want to make one particular backup immune to Time Machine's auto-delete function.  It's the one I used to migrate from my old computer to my current one.  I tried to just drag-copy it on to a different drive, but apparently I don't have permission to copy my own computer's backups... weird.
    Anyway, there's got to be a way to lock this particular backup.  I going to have to keep Time Machine off until I can find out how.

    There's always a way, with a little ingenuity.  I just went to Get Info for that backup and changed the system privilege to "read only."  And if that doesn't work, I'm sure something else will.
    I am sure of one thing that you are going to end up breaking Time Machine which in all likelihood you will not discover until you need to recovery data from it.

  • How can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field?

    how can we prevent a user from entering a value in Parameter Field and Select-options Field?

    make it invisible, make it inactive, make it display only.
    if the field is not there or not to be seen the user WILL have problems inputting data.
    BUT once the field is there you can NOT prevent that the user fills it with data.
    all you can do is on PAI check if the data the user inputted was good or bad, and clear his inputs, but you can NOT prevent him inputting something.

  • How can I prevent my iPhone4 from starting after connecting to Power?

    How can I prevent my iPhone4 from starting (booting) after connecting to Power?

    You can't so far as I know. You can however, shut it down after it's connected to power and it should not power back on as long as it's connected. If the power is disconnected/reconnected, it will power back on.
    If you just want to avoid calls, etc. while it's plugged in, you could just put it in airplane mode.

  • How can i prevent my pro from over heating?

    How can i prevent my pro from over heating?

    Don't use the computer in your lap, or on a blanket or pillow. The case bottom is part of the heat dissipation system so it needs air underneath. If you must use the computer in your lap, get a lapboard. There are cheap, even more so if you make one yourself.
    If the computer is a older MBP with silver keys, avoid "clamshell" mode when using an external monitor. Those models let a lot of heat escape through the keyboard. The black-key Unibody versions don't seem to rely so much on the keyboard as a vent.
    Like eww said, what feels hot to you may not threaten the computer's well-being. Get a temperature monitoring utility. I like this one:
    http://bresink.com/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
    It runs politely in the background and puts the readout in the menubar:
    so you don't have to invoke Dashboard like some other temp monitors require. As Dashboard loads all its widgets as soon as it's invoked, the extra widget processes can run up the temps and you don't get a true average use temp.
    If you use Dashboard a lot, those processes stay active after the first launch and can eat processor cycles as well as increase temps. I use DashQuit, a widget that shuts down Dashboard when I'm done without requiring a computer restart. It's here:

  • HT5557 how can you remove all books from books purchased file

    how can you remove all ibook from purchased file

    When I connected my iPhone, it automatically synced right away. I did click on the iPhone button and saw the contents of my iPhone including the Books. When I clicked that 'Books' button. But since the book in question was not on my iPhone, it did not show up in the list so I could not select it like you suggested. Therefore I could not sync that book to my iPhone. Thanks for the help though.
    The good news is I did manage to get the book on to my iPhone.
    When her book came out for preorder about a year or two ago, I looked for it in the iTunes store and preordered it. About a week after it came out, I found what was basically the same book for a dollar more. ($7.99 and $8.99) I figured there must be something additional (features) in the $8.99 book. So I bought it too. As far as I could tell though, they were exactly the same. So I decided to hide one of them so they would not both show up in my Library. Anyway, I went to my iTunes/iBooks account and managed the hidden books area. I unhid the Demi book and then it showed up in my iCloud to download on my iPhone. Now they are both on my computer so I need to figure out which one is the other one and hide it. So then I can delete it from my computer just have the one that is on my iPhone on both systems. But at least I found a way to get a copy on my iPhone.

  • HT4059 How can I move a book from one device to another

    How can I move an iBook from one device to another

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:

  • How can I import address book from thunderbird on another computer

    I just purchased a new laptop and have dowloaded Thunderbird for my e-mail as that was what I was using on desktop. I have 2 e-mail accounts, my personal e-mail addresses came thru with no difficulty however my other account the contacts in address book didn't come thru. So question is how can I get address book imported for this account too. My desktop is Windows XP and my laptop is Windows 8
    thanks for any help

    The neat thing to do would be to copy the profile from the XP machine to the W8 machine. This would have transferred your messages, your account settings and your Address Book and much else.
    Given that you have set up Thunderbird and have started using it, copying over the profile may not now be terribly attractive for you.
    So, instead, you can export and import your Address Books.
    On the XP computer, open the Address Book, select an address book (e.g. Personal Address Book), select '''Tools|Export''', select the name and location of a file to contain the exported data, choose LDIF and then Save. Repeat for each required address book. Give your LDIF files simple but meaningful names, such as PAB.ldif and CA.ldif. Don't use, for instance, ''Personal Address Book.ldif'', as this will create a second address book with the same name as one of the defaults and you won't be able to easily tell which is which.
    Put the exported LDIF files where the W8 computer can see them, e.g. a USB memory stick.
    On the W8 machine, open the address book, Tools|Import and select an exported LDIF file. It will import and create a new address book; you'll probably want to move the Contact data back to the usual address book. You can select all (ctrl+a) then drag-and-drop the imported Contacts to the preferred address book. Repeat for each LDIF file.
    Having said that, I don't understand what you mean by "my personal e-mail addresses came thru with no difficulty however my other account the contacts in address book didn't come thru"; unless you have moved the profile folder over, I don't understand why ''any'' contacts should have transferred.
    If you have in fact moved the profile folder, then I'm puzzled as to why the transfer of address books has been incomplete. However the export and import route should be able to reclaim the missing address book(s).
