How to sync books and PDFs on Mac iBook App to iPad iBook App

On Macbook, iBook used to be part of iTune. Now it is an independent component. Here is my problem. I found no way to sync the books and PDFs in iBook library on MacBook to my iPad. How can I sync?

You should be able to sync them in a similar way to how you used to sync them, it's just that now you use the iBooks app on your Mac to manage your ibooks/PDFs/epubs library on your Mac instead of within iTunes.
If you connect your iPad to your Mac's iTunes and select the iPad, one of the tabs across the top of the screen should be Books which you can use to select which of your Mac's iBooks library to sync to it e.g. with the left-hand sidebar in iTunes disabled (option-command-S) I see :

Why didn't the contents of my iBook app on my iPhone transfer to my new iPad 3 when I synced the iPad in iTunes on my computer.? HELP PLEASE

Are all books and PDF files available in the iBooks app on your iPhone available in your iTunes library on your computer?
If so, is this content selected under the Books tab for your iPad sync preferences with iTunes?

How to sync todos and memo between Mac and iPhone

Hello!
On my MacBook there are todos and memos in the Mail.app, on the iPhone, I found todos and memos too, but no way to sync this between MacBook and iPhone.

This is a possibility. But please be aware using your Mac to emit a WiFi connection is a temporary solution. And it will get a short range unlike an actual WiFi Router. Also you may find it to be unstable at times. The Airport Card in your Mac was not designed to be a full time Router WiFi emitter. But more of a receiver to get the signal and use it for personal use.
1. Unlock the network on your Mac make it an open network
2. Go to your iPhone, Settings-Wireless-Tap on blue circle next to network name, Choose Forget network
3. Now go back, It will rescan and find an open network, Connect, and see if Safari works
If Safari works, Then you had a Security issue. Try using WEP 128 bit 13 character passkey or WEP 8 Character Passkey.
Cheers and best of luck

How to sync photos and videos from mac to ipad

Hi, my brother took pictures and videos on my mac, I searched everywhere in itunes, but I don't know how, can you help me, thanks.

Connect the device to your Mac.
Click on the iPad listed in the let panel of iTunes.
Go to the Video tab and select which videos in the iTunes library you want on the iPad (that's where the videos need to be)
Go to the Photos tab and select which pictures from iPhoto (or Aperture) you want on the iPad.
Press the 'Sync' button in the lower right of the iTunes window.
iTunes will tell you when it's safe to disconnect the iPad.

Sync selected books and pdfs iTunes desktop

Hi all,
I have been trying to archive my pdfs and ePubs to my computer via iTunes. It used to be I could back everything up to my iTunes library on my desktop and then I could select which songs to sync on my iPad, but the option to select sync is greyed out. I am planning on deleting all unnecessary pdfs and books off of my iPad as they are taking up a lot of space. I can't update to iOS 7 as the books and pdfs are taking up a lot of space. Most of my books were made by my school, so I can't redownload things as purchases.
Im running:
iTunes 11
iOS 6
Latest version of iBooks

I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though, itunes automatically putting books on my idevices

I'm trying to get organized and I just added a bunch of books and pdfs to my itunes library. They were all added immediately to my ipad and iphone even though I did not want this. I added them to itunes using add to library and I have both devices set to sync only selected books.
How do I do this in the future so this doesnt happen? Its a lot of work to now manually erase them from each device and it sent my phone over capacity.
thanks

I dont see the difference in the posts. I dont think theres anything inaccurate or misleading about what I wrote. The items were immediately added to my ipad and my iphone, even though I have them both set to sync only select items. As soon as I added new titles to my itunes library, they were immediately added to the devices. Not on the next sync. Immediately. Both devices were plugged into the computer at the time. Sorry if I failed to mention they were plugged in but I dont see the signifigance youre making out of it. The problem persists anyway.
Now that I did a test without the devices plugged in, the new items were still added as soon as I plugged my devices into the computer ( I do not have them set to sync over wifi).
Since I have both devices set to manually select items to sync, of course I want to manually select new items to sync. For instance, I am not going to read any of these magazines or books on my phone, ever, and I dont want to waste valuable space with them.
So I'm trying your advice:
I just tried deselecting sync books. It erased all content from ibooks on my device. I then dragged
one title onto the device, and it just goes back to syncing select books, with the one title selected.
It appears that wont work to solve my issue. The next time I add something to itunes it will be put on my phone. Is this really something most people want? To select to manualy control what content is synced, but then have things automatically added. It seems inconsistent to me.

Hi pissedadobeuser,
Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.
Which Browser version, OS version and Acrobat version are you using?

I received a replacement iPad. On my original iPad I had dozens of books and PDF's. I completely backed up my original iPad. The categories of my iBook files transferred but NOT the actual PDF and Books. Please help.

Are the PDFs and ibooks on your computer's iTunes ? If so then you should be able to re-sync them, if not then you can re-download ibooks for free as long as they are still available in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . The backup doesn't contain the contents of the ibooks app, so for them to be restored to the device they needed to be in your iTunes library.
