How do I add books from iBooks on my iPad to iBooks on my desktop iMac?

I have down loaded eBooks to my iPad iBooks and I would like to view them in iBooks on my iMac but they won't sync.
Can anyone help me do this.

Instead of syncing (which is from Mac to iPad, not the other way round), you need to Transfer Purchases. It's the same process, control click the iPad in the Sidebar > Transfer Purchases.

How do I add Books tab in library on iPad.

How do I add Books tab in library on mac iTunes. I m using mac iTunes version 11.1.5 and I could not find books option in its preferences. I have .pdf file to add in.
I managed having Books option in Devices << my iPad but I cannot manage to have in library. Also I went through app on my devices and I could not find iBooks app.

Okay so I have that option in tabs up to the right. However, I cannot find option to add a book to sync. I am attaching screenshot. First screenshot is for a book that I want to add and second screenshot is where I dont able to add book to. Also ignore the book that appears in second screenshot. But because there is no books in Library sidebar in the same place where you can see Music and Movies are the only options I have, and if I have books option there then definitely I can sync. so thanks for trying but I am still looking for a solution...

How do I add apps from launchpad to my iPad

I have a bunch of medical apps that I paid for and put them on my macbook pro. I recently won an ipad at an office drawing and want to transfer the apps I would like to use for work from my macbook to my ipad and preferably keep them on both. How can I tranfer apps from macbook to ipad?

Sorry, apps designed for the Mac will not work on the iPad. There may be similar apps avaialble from the App Store that can be installed on the iPad.

How doI share a book to my wife's iPad in iBooks?

My wife and I have separate iTunes accounts. In the past, I could download a book on my iPad. If my wife were interested in the book, she could sign on to my account and download the book (she knows my password, and vice versa).
Now I get a message that If I switch to another account I can't switch back for 90 days. I don't understand the implications of doing that (we also do the same for apps as well).
Can someone explain what the message means?

It clearly makes no sense to pay twice for a family member to read the same book. The Apps store allows us to share apps and we can each authorize the other's Macs to share iTunes content.
The issue is not sharing personal data - she can log onto my account whenever she wants, and I can log onto hers.
If I understand the message, and it would preclude her from accessing her account for 90 days, then I find that unacceptable.
I can buy the same books from Amazon at the same price and we can share books in the same way.

How do I transfer books from blue fire to ibooks on my ipad?

How do I transfer books from blue fire to iBooks on my ipad?

If they are albums that you've synced from your computer then they are removed by re-connecting to your computer's iTunes, de-selecting them on the Photos tab, and re-syncing - albums and photos that you've synced can't be deleted (and albums can't be merged) directly on the iPad.
If they are albums that you've created directly on the iPad then you should be able to delete them on the iPad via the Edit button at the top left of the album selection screen. You can also copy more photos into (via the Edit button when within an album), and delete photos from, those albums.

How do i transfer books from a flash drive to ibooks

How do I transfer books from a flashdrive to ibooks.

Are you using OSX 10.9 or 10.8? If you are using 10.9 as a beta tester you should not be posting here but in the Apple Seed forums.
iBooks will be part the new 10.9 but is not part of the OSX system currently.

HT5772 how can i delete books from ibooks on iMac

how can i delete books from ibooks on imac?

That doesn't work. It only allows you to delete your local copy but keeps the book in your library. The instructions on Apple's site are also incorrect. They suggest going to iTunes and selecting Books from the Library menu, but there is no Books option under that menu in the current version.
Anyone at Apple listening?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.

A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

My apologies for the lack of photos, here is my post again with photos.
