HT4059 Can you share iBook purchases?

Is it possible to share iBook purchases with friends?

ibooks are tied to your iTunes account, and they can't be lent or transferred to other accounts - so unless they have access to your iTunes account then no.

  • HT4059 CAN YOU SHARE IBOOK BOOKS WITH OTHER IBOOK USERS?

    Does anyone know if you can share books in ibook with other ibook users?

    No, not unless you give them access to your iTunes Store account (which would probably be a violation of the Store terms of use).
    Regards.

  • Can you share ibooks

    Can  you share purchased books on ibooks or even kindle with another iphone or ipad user?

    I'm afraid not. The issue is that the purchases made from your Apple iD cannot be shared with another.

  • Can you share iBooks that you have downloaded and read

    After I finish reading a book I am wondering if I can pass it to someone else who has an iPad. Can you share books

    They can't be shared no, they are tied to your iTunes account - so unless the other person has access to your account they won't be able to download the ibook.
    I'm not sure whether ebook stores (e.g. Kindle etc) allow you to share their ebooks

  • HT4059 can you use ibook on macbook pro

    can you use ibook on macbook pro? If so, how do i read the free books from itune?

    "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.
    The kndle app provides this feature.
    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."
    You can read iboks on ipod touch/ipad/iphone, just not your computer.

  • Can you share purchased books with Home Sharing?

    Can you share purchased books (from IBooks) with Home Sharing? Music seems to share fine-books seem to be a problem.

    In iTunes go to Preferences > Sharing and either share your entire library or make sure the Books playlist is checked.
    You may then need to click the Import button to copy the book into your Library, I was not able to actually read the book without taking that step.

  • Can you share/lend books that have bought from iBook with others users?

    Can you share/lend books that have you have bought from iBook with other iPad users?

    At this time, unless I've missed something recently, you cannot. You can load an iBook onto multiple iPads if these are all owned by your household though (you can't give an iBook to a friend, for instance, or a relative that lives elsewhere).
    If the ability to lend books is important to you, you may wish to purchase Kindle books from Amazon, though you'll want to confirm that the book has lending enabled - not all do - and that the Kindle app for iOS supports lending.
    This is one of the several advantages of physical books; the ability to loan them out or give them to someone else. Whether the book publishers will ever allow similar unfettered handling of electronic books is unknown, though I'd guess they'll be dragged to it kicking and screaming.
    Regards.

  • Can you share books

    Can you share books in your iBook account?

    Hello,
    I'm afraid not. All books purchased on the iBook library are user specific.
    They require the reader to be logged in under their own Apple ID which purchased the iBooks.

    Can you share kindle books using family sharing?

    Hi Charlie42,
    Happy New Year!  The link below explains how you can tell which purchased content is available to share using Family Sharing.   Contact Amazon for more specifics regarding sharing their content.  The Kindle app itself may be shareable, but the books may be considered an In-App purchase, making them not shareable.  Amazon would be able to give you a definitive answer.

    Which purchased content can I share using Family Sharing
    After you set up Family Sharing, the eligible songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books, and apps purchased by family members will be available to everyone else in the group. Learn what you can share with your family members.
    If you turned on Share My Purchases, you can share most content that's also available in iTunes in the Cloud. You can share Music, Movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store. You can also share Books that you downloaded from the iBooks Store, and apps from the App Store. The availability of each content type depends on your country.
    There are a few things that you can't share:
    Songs added to iTunes Match from outside the iTunes Store
    In-App Purchases
    Items that are no longer available on the iTunes Store
    Items that were hidden
    Apps that aren't shareable
    If you're on an Apple TV, you can't access shared music.See if you can share an app
    Use these steps to see if you can share an app before or after you get it.
    App Store in iOS 8
    Go to the app's description page. Scroll down to the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Updates > Purchased > My Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.
    Mac App Store in OS X Yosemite
    Go to the app's description page and check the Information section. If you can share it, you'll see Yes next to Family Sharing.
    Go to Purchases. If you can't share an app, you'll see Not Shareable next to its name.

    If one of your family members received their content through Apple ID for Students, you won’t see it in their shared purchases. This includes apps and other content distributed through the school.
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing. Content can be hidden by family members; hidden content is not available for download. Content downloaded from family members or acquired via redemption codes is not subject to Ask to Buy.
