How do i set ibooks author to UK english

I cannot change the language used by iBooksAuthor to UK English, so it continually wants to change words like colour or centre. My MBA preferences are set to English UK and the region is UK. Can anyone help

How are you Using iBooks Author and Samples

I'm curious to see how everyone is using iBooks author to create books. Are most people copy/pasting content into their book or are they directly writing the content in the book? How many have just imported the information from another word processing program? Who is using the program for creating books for children, entertainment or work-related functions?
And that being said, I'm also interseted to see samples of how the books of others look on the iPad, including if possible the children's books, entertainment books or the work-related books. (Including how they incorporated widgets, theme in the pages, fonts, etc)
Me personally, I have been developing two books using iBooks author for work related fuctions. The first book is a training manual for a software program; the second book is a guide to all the reports that can be created in the software program. Both books have been well received by clients.

I generally find that, for creating the text, I'm better off with the word processor of my choice. That way, I get to focus on content and structure and I don't get distracted by layout and formatting issues. While working in the word processor, I use only the simplest of styles. (Logical styles rather than visual ones, the equivalen of HTML <H1>, <H2>, etc.
Once I'm happy with the text and I've done the copy editing, I import into the page layout program and do the layout.
Cheers,
Michi.

Language setting Ibooks author

I have the dutch version of ibooks author (i think). I can find the language setting for text and i can change the language in OS X v 10.7 Lion.
In the wordlist the spellchecker keeps working in Dutch. Who knows how to solve this problem?

What is the problem exactly? You have selected the text and set the Language to English in the Inspector but it keeps checking the text as if it were Dutch?

How can I share iBooks authored by me using iBook Author on 2 different iPads synced to two different computors? Both iPads have different iTunes accounts.

I am in the process of authoring an eBook using iBook Author. The project is a work in progress and I want to share the draft with other collegues. We each have our own iPads synced with other computers and we have different iTunes acounts. I attempted to preview the book on the new iPad, but the iPad did not come up in the available device window.
Am I missing something or is there a way around this?

How do you get iBooks Author to show page numbers? (All my pages are in blank layout.)

I'm using iBooks Author 2.0 to make a picture book and can't get it to show page numbers. The "insert page numbers" menu item doesn't highlight when I'm creating a page, nor does a number magically show up when I preview the book on my iPad. Please help?
It may have something to do with how I'm using the ToC (tried to avoid having a ToC, but that's not working out too well. Any suggestions on how to do that with a picture book would also be helpful.)
Thanks,
C

Thanks K T, This definitely got page numbers to appear.
Now I actually have to read the iBooks Author support to figure out what I'm doing wrong with the whole Section/Chapter template thing. (It would be nice to just have a simple picture book template. Not to complain.)
Thanks for your technical support across so many issues.

How to reset an iBooks Author Html Widget?

Hi folks!
I'm using with great pleasure Adobe Edge Animate 1.0 to make Html Widgets for Apple iBooks Author!
In a composition, I've defined this variable:
var track1 = new Audio();
        track1.src = "media/track1.m4a";
        track1.volume = 0.5;
and made it play:
track1.play();
All it works but...what if I want that - when I go out from the widget on iBooks on iPad - the track pauses?
I've coded this in my index.html file inside the widget:
    widget.pauseAudioVisual = function() {
// do this when closing Widget
$.Edge.getComposition(EDGE-114545384).getStage();
track1.pause();
widget.didEnterWidgetMode = function() {
// do this when entering widget
$.Edge.getComposition(EDGE-114545384).getStage();
track1.pause();
... but when I go out form widget the track still plays on....
Any hint?
Many thanks in advance!
Davide

I suspect the file is corrupted in some form.
Which could be a few keystrokes away from fixing or days of BS&T, sorry. There's no way to know, especially from here.
If you're handy with a text editor, crack into the xml and compare it to a behaving file to see if you can spot the issue(s). Or, do the same and carefully graft sections from it to a new file until you manage to manually rebuild.
In the end, tho, I think your time at this point is best spent simply redoing from scratch. If you have further questions, please start your own, unique thread so you can better track, close if solved, etc.
And again, to everyone....if your work has value, be sure to have a tested and reliable backup in place at all times.
Good luck.

How to remove the iBooks Author watermark?

Is it possible to remove the iBooks Author watermark?

If you're loaded with money, Adobe's Acrobat Pro might let you removed the watermark. If you're like most of us, you may find PDF Pen or PDF Pen Pro more reasonably priced. You can find out more here:
http://www.smilesoftware.com/PDFpen/
PDF Pen and PDF Pen Pro offer about 90% of the features of Adobe Acrobat Pro at about 10-20% of the price. And I find them much easier to use.
I tried with my copy of PDF Pen Pro and I was able to erase the "iBooks Author" footer (if that is the watermark you mean) in about a minute by selecting it with the rectangle select tool and erasing. (Putting a white box over the watermark might also work.) But you'll have to do that manually on every page.

How do I download ibook author onto my iPad mini?

I would like to share my books that I have purchased and stored on my iPad mini but have been unsuccessful uploading iBooks Author. Any suggestions?

iBooks Author is for creating iBooks, not sharing them, and Author runs only on a Mac. If you want your purchased iBooks on other devices you own, either re-download them on those other devices:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
or sync them from your iPad to iTunes on a computer, then sync them to your other devices.
If you mean you want to share those books with other people, you can't unless you give them access to your iTunes Store account, and that would be a violation of the terms of the license.
Regards.

Hi jvm2221,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing, and/or how you are currently crating your reminders. If you are having issues creating reminders that have the correct date, you may want to make sure you are following the steps outlined in the following article:

Write a book in pages; export to ibook author

Normally, I write a whole book in one pages for mac file. Now that I would like to import to iBook Author, I discovered that I have to import as one chapter per pages file.
Is there a way to write a whole book in one pages for mac file and able to export to ibook author without having to split the whole book into multiple files (one per chapter)?
In a sense, how do we inform ibook author that we have more than one chapter in one pages file?
Thanks,
Narin

What version of Pages?
You have Section Breaks or not?

IBooks Author on version 10.6

How can I install iBooks Author on a Mac OS version 10.6? Current version with minumum requirements to install iBooks Author on the Apple site is 10.7.2.

You can find instructions for how to install IBA on 10.6 here. As noted in the article, that's not a supported configuration, but it might just be enough to get you going.

How can I change the language back to English on Appstore?

          I just recently upgraded my Ipod touch to iOS 5.0.1 and after that the language of applications Appstore & Itunes was set to French, while everything else is in English -as it is supposed to be as before the upgrade everything was in English-.
          Currently the Language set on my Ipod is English (From Settings->General->International->Language->English).
          The account for Appstore is not linked to any credit card it is a an account to only download free applications.
              How can I set the language back to English?
Thanks a lot,

Is the address on your account based in France ? The language of the stores should reflect the language of the country where your account is based, which isn't necessarily the same language as you've set on the device.
If your account isn't based in a French spealing country, then try logging out of the account (via Settings > Store) and then log back in (and also make sure that your address is correct and complete), and see if the language of the iTunes and App Store the reflect the language of the country where your account is based.

How do I set the margins for a book in ibook author

I am fairly new to Ibooks author and am having trouble figuring out how to set my margins to follow throughout the book. I am making the book in landscape mode and want the hardcopy version to be 11 x 8.5. I need the left margin to be set at 2.5 and no matter what I have done it skews the following pages. I will publish this online but since this is going to be a family history book, I am going to have to export it eventually to PDF and send it to a printer. Does anyone know how to change these settings?

Thank you. I just like the possibilities associated with Ibooks author. But I will do that and maybe later transfer that data to Ibooks.
Thanks again.
