HT4059 Can I use Bookshare books on iBooks ?

Can I use Bookshare books on iBooks? Will their format be compatible ?

I don't think so. It appears that Bookshare uses the DAISY format, and iBooks uses ePub. According to the Bookshare site, you need Read2Go:

  • Can't add pdf book to iBooks

    Upgraded to iOS 8.3 on iPad Mini, using Mavericks and iTunes 12,1,2,27 on early 2008 MacPro
    Can't add pdf books to iBooks like i used to . I normally use the add to library command to achieve this but books don't show up
    Following numerous tries and un plugging iPad Mini and restarting iTunes, i searched for my iPad library in my home lib ray to discover the books i wanted to add are now in the iTunes Media folder (where my music is) but as unknown artist. I have separate libraries for my iPhone and another iPad and these show the books folder which seems to have disappeared from my iPad folder.
    Also when trying to synchronize iTunes said it lost connection and could not save my iPad Mini numerous times.
    Also the general info bar at the bottom of my iTunes window is now all confused as to the size and contents of my iPad Mini. I have about 25000 photos and it says i only have 235Mb of photos where it should be closer to 15 GB. The miscellaneous portion in that bar is rating this content at about 16Gb.
    Can someone help ?

    This probably isn't helpful, but what you did does work in 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    I dragged one of my PDF eBooks into iTunes and it showed up in the Books section.
    But when I clicked on it, it displayed it in Adobe Acrobat, just the same as if I'd clicked on the original file itself.
    I don't see any advantatge to importing eBooks into iTunes, especially PDF eBooks ... unless you're syncing with an iPhone, I guess ... even then you'll need a good pdf viewer on the iPhone unless you convert the PDFs to ePubs.
    You might also post your problem in the 10.7 Lion discussion group.

  • I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks author?

    I have written an ebook that has been created for kindle. How can I export the book into iBooks Author?
    I have tried converting the book to different files like, mobi, epub, pdf. By using an app on my iphone.
    I still cannot add it to iBooks Author.
    I'm stuck, Please help me!

    Either use copy/paste and then format/style as desired, or take it to Pages or WORD and insert chapters - which may still require resettling.
    If you're looking for a 1:1 port, with all styles and layout intact, you may be dissapointed, tho.

  • How can i delete some books from ibook?

    How can i delete some books from ibook? It says: this book can't be opened. The book is corrupt. I can't open and I can't delete it

    I was unable to delete a book sample from my iPhone 5s running iOS 7.  This seems to be what worked for me.  I went to the Library and clicked "edit" in upper right side of the screen.  I then tapped one time on the book I wanted to remove and a blue check appeared at the bottom right corner of that book (presumably you could tap several at a time)  Anyway, when the blue check is on the book, you will see in the upper left of the screen the word "Delete" (mine was in red) I clicked that and then a confirming dialog came up from the bottom of the screen with the choices of "delete" or "cancel".  I chose "delete" and the book was gone.  Hope this helps.

  • Can I share purchased books from iBooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    Can I share purchased books from ibooks with separate iTunes accounts?

    While that's an understandable desire, the publishers don't want you buying a book and sharing it with multiple individuals who others would buy it. The inability to "share" a book or pass it on to a friend or relative when you're done is one of the drawbacks of ebooks vs traditional print ... And consider that when you pass on a real book to your wife, presumably you're not reading it at the same time. :-)
    Some other ebooks do allow limited (time-constrained) sharing of books - Barnes & Noble, for one, I believe - and they have an app for the iPad that would allow you to read books on it.

  • Can I make a book in iBooks an audible book?

    Can I make a book in iBooks an audible book?

    There is an app called "Book Creator" which allows you to write, add pictures and audio to your own book and then you can export it to iBooks. It is a fabulous app and works very well in the classroom on the iPad.

  • HT5824 How can you permanently delete books from Ibooks

    How can you permanently delete books from IBooks?

    You cant permanently delete them, but you can hide them.
    Pop into iTunes, and in the iTunes Store under Quick Links along the right hand side, you can see Purchases, and then sign in, look at your books and click on the X in the top left and it will hide them so you dont have to see them.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    Why can't I delete books from iBooks/iCloud?

    What happens when you try to delete them from the iBooks app on your Mac ? If they are downloaded into the app (i.e. they don't have the cloud symbol on them) then you should be able to select them and then press the delete button on your keyboard to delete them.
    In terms of the cloud, you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show for redownloading, which you can either do via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    Or for the iBooks app you can go into the Store in the app, and on the Featured tab select the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the screen and hide them (hover your mouse pointer on a book and it should get an 'x' on its top left corner, click that to hide the book).

    "if you can use the Kindle app from iPad to Macbook, shouldn't you be able to do the same with an apple product?"
    No.

    Ibooks does not.
    " I would rather buy books from iBooks"
    You can buy form whomever you like.
    " but not being able to go from device to device like in Kindle is a problem."
