HT4059 download books from my computer to my ipad

how can i download books already on my computer to my ipad

If they are on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes, and then use the Books tab on the right-hand side to sync them to the iBooks app on the iPad (assuming that it's installed).
If the books weren't bought from Apple or aren't epub books that are digital rights free, then you will need to see if the store that you bought them from has their own app or if you they support a different ebook app.

    Instructions on syncing your iPad can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12311
    and in the accompanying documents linked from that page. Syncing your iPad with iTunes copies items, it doesn't move them. The only way apps would be actually removed from your iPad during syncing is if you had iTunes set to remove them on syncing, so check the appropriate settings in iTunes, set the book to sync as well, and then sync the iPad again.
    Regards.

    How do I download pictures from my computer to my ipad?

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • How do I download pictures from the computer to the ipad

    how do I download pictures from the computer to the ipad?
    I want to temporarily put pictures that I took from another camera that's on my desktop into my IPAD so I can carry it to another location and show off my pictures to friends and family?

    Connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you want more control over your photos (e.g. being able to sort them directly on the iPad and delete synced photos) then there are third-party photo apps such as Photo Manager Pro.

  • Is it possible to copy mobipocket books from my computer to my iPAD

    Can I copy Mobipocket books from my computer to my iPad2 ?

    Download history usually will have the link back to the original source location. Assuming that still exists, it's worth a try. When you right-click (Ctrl+click) an item, the small context menu should let you copy the URL of the original source, which you then can paste into the address bar to fetch it again. If the original download required you to be logged in to the source site, you should log in again first to increase your odds of getting the download.

  • I've downloaded songs from my computer to my ipad and some of them still need downloading but it wont download

    I downloaded songs from my computer (that I got from my iPhone) to my iPad and some of them have a cloud symbol next to them and I tap it and it says Download Over Mobile? I haven't got Wi-fi or a sim card in it but that doesn't matter because I've already downloaded 1 album and it works. How come these songs won't play?!

  • HT4059 downloading books from the cloud

    i already purchased a book but can't seem to download to iBook it from the cloud.  When I go to Purchased, and tap on the book to download, it just refers me to Purchases and tap Download, which I have been doing.

    Are they showing up in the cloud or your phone, or as downloaded books ? If they are showing as downloaded then when do they reshow, after syncing with your Mac (which would imply that they are still on your Mac and being synced back from it), or randomly ? If they are showing as being in the cloud on your phone, and if you haven't already done so, then try logging out of your account via the Featured tab in the iBooks app on your phone and then log back in and see if they still show.
    To check that all of your books are showing in the iBooks app on your Mac, do File > Move Books From iTunes in it and see if that gets any others to show.

  • HT1349 How can I download books from my Nook onto my iPad?

    How can I download and read books that I have purchased on my Nook? I would like to read them on my iPad.

    In the iTunes App Store get the free Nook app. Then you will be able to sign into your B&N account in the Nook app and download your Nook library directly into the app on your iPad over the internet.

  • Sync Books from one computer, movies from another?

    The title describes it...is there a way to sync movies from one computer and my books from another computer to my iPad?  I have a Macbook Pro that I use mainly for work, but also use it for some personal stuff.  However, I keep all my movies on my iMac at home and the iTunes library there.  I keep all my books on my Macbook Pro.  Is there a way to make this work?  Or should I just get all my books onto my iMac?  That would be a chore, but would be doable.  I have been purchasing books on Kindle and then importing them into iBooks because the app is better. 
    Any suggestions would be greatly apprecaited!  Thanks in advance!

    Yeah...that's probably what I will be doing.  A bit of a hassle as I use my MBP MUCH more than I use my iMac, but not too bad.  I use my iPad more for books and everything BUT watching movies.  However, I have a 2TB media server HD on my iMac where all my movie content lies.  My music is on my MBP, but use iTunes Match, so that's a wash.
    The Kindle to iBooks thing is awesome.  A bit of a process, but awesome.  Here's the article that explains it all...

  • HT4059 my iPad mini cannot download books from iTunes - help

    my iPad mini cannot download books from iTunes - help

    Hi, debikay45. 
    Test to see if you can download a free application from the App Store.  If this was successful, test downloading the book again.  Try closing all open applications and power cycling the device, test the results.  Make sure you have an active Internet connection.  If these results were unsuccessful, see the steps in the article below that refer to iOS. 
    Isolate the issue: (Mac OS X, Windows, iOS)
    Make sure the issue is with the iTunes Store only. (You need an Internet connection to access the iTunes Store).Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for the iTunes Store. This also tests if the main ports 80 and 443 are accessible. If the website works but the iTunes Store does not, it is most likely a firewall blocking the iTunes software or servers. If this is the case, follow the steps in the "Blocked by software firewall" section below.
    Test using another device.If possible, another device, ideally on a different network, would help troubleshooting any iTunes Store issues most efficiently. If another device on another network has issues, the iTunes Store may be undergoing maintenance, and will be available soon.
    Test using another network.
    Connect your computer or device to another network and testing helps determine the next step. This is also helpful if multiple devices are affected.
    If your device can connect to Wi-Fi and a cellular network, larger downloads may not be possible over the cellular network.
    If the issue disappears while connected to another network, you may need to work with your support options to open access to:
    itunes.apple.com
    ax.itunes.apple.com
    ax.init.itunes.apple.com
    albert.apple.com
    gs.apple.com
    ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net
    mzstatic.com
    Note: iTunes may use the fully qualified version of these addresses for additional security.
    iTunes uses well known ports and these ports may need to be opened for iTunes: 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999.
    It is critical that your date, time, and time zone be correct:Windows:
    Click Start and then click Control Panel.
    Click "Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options" and then click Date and Time.
    Click the Date & Time tab.
    Make sure that the date and time settings are configured to use the current date and time and then click OK.
    Mac OS X:
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    In System Preferences, click Date & Time.
    Enable the option to "Set date and time automatically" if it is not.
    Click the Time Zone tab and adjust the time zone to match your current location.
    iOS:
    From the home screen, tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
    If the option exists, turn off Set Automatically.
    Verify the time zone and time (in the status bar) are correct for where you are currently.
    If not, adjust the incorrect setting accordingly.
    If everything was correct and the option exists, turn on Set Automatically.
    Remove any restrictions that may be causing the issue:
    Windows:
    It is recommended you use iTunes from an administrator account.
    Refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.
    You can also check using iTunes Diagnostics if you are recognized as an administrator by iTunes.
    Mac OS X:
    It is recommended you use iTunes from an administrator account. To become an administrator account, from the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    In System Preferences, click Accounts.
    You may need to unlock the lock in the bottom-left corner of the window to make changes. If you can unlock the lock, you are already an admin user.
    Under the account you are using, it may say "Standard." Enable the option to "Allow user to administer this computer" to make the user an admin account user.
    From the Apple () menu, choose Log Out.
    Log back in and return to using iTunes. Test to see if the issue is resolved.
    iOS: Restrictions can limit your ability to purchase some content. Check restrictions via Settings> General > Restrictions if you're unsure about those settings.
    After isolating the issue to iTunes by following the above steps:
    If the issue still occurs and iTunes displays an alert message with a specific code, please see the section below titled "Specific Conditions and Alert Messages" for additional troubleshooting steps.
    If the issue is still not resolved and there is no specific code or alert message, you can visit the iTunes Store Discussion Board to try to find additional information for help resolving your issue:
    You can also contact AppleCare to discuss your support options. Depending on your product’s coverage status, you may need to pay for support.

  • How do I download documents from my computer to Ipad?

    How do I download documents
    from my computer to Ipad?

    Apple has the iBooks app for compatibility with pdf flies. If you do not have it on your iPad, you can download it for free. My personal preference for pdf's is the free Adobe Reader app. It has so many more useful features than iBooks, but if all that you want to do is save the pdf's and organize them into collections, iBooks will work fine. So download an app that you can store pdf files in.
    In order to transfer pdf files to the iPad, you can do that via iTunes. If you are using iBooks on the iPad, you have to add the pdf's to your iTunes library via File>Add to Library. Then you can select them to sync to the device by selecting them in the books pane of iTunes when the iPad is connected to your computers iTunes. This explains how to add content to iTunes. It works with pdf files as described in this article.

    If you use the Adobe Reader app, you can use iTunes File Sharing to transfer the files.

  • How can I download books from my library

    how can I download books from my library

    To load or delete a WMA or MP3 book onto an Apple mobile device do the following.
    1. For Windows versions, you must first do a security update of Windows Media Player (even though you won't be using it) using Internet Explorer at http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/indivsite .
    2.  Open iTunes, plug the mobile device into the computer USB port and open the Overdrive Media Console.
    3. Highlight the mobile device in the left hand menu of iTunes and insure the "Manually manage music and videos" box is checked in the Summary Tab.
    4. Highlight the book you want to transfer in the Overdrive Media Console and click the Transfer Button.   A window opens permitting you to click the boxes for parts of the book you wish to transfer.
    5. After the book has been transfered, when you click the disclosure triangle (arrow) to the left of the iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes, MP3 books will show up under the Music subsection and WMA books will show up in the Books subsection.  Once the mobile device is disconnected from iTunes, MP3 books will show up in the Songs list and WMA books will show up in the Books list.
    6. To remove a book from a mobile device plug the device into the USB port and open iTunes. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes so that you can see the device’s subcontents.
