HT4059 How do I close a book to look at a different one?

When I open iBooks the page I am reading fills the whole screen, so I have no icons to control the app - all I can do is page backward or forward through the book that happens to be open.  Surely not right?

Well, I'm kind of answering my own question, because I found by accident that a diagonal stroke across the middle of the screen pulls up a row of icons at the top - or at least it does sometimes.  So my first question is ansered, and I hope this might help others, but it prompts another - why did I have to find this out by accident?
And is there a way I can make it a default to keep these icons visible all the time?

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

  • HT4059 How can I mark a book as read or completed in Apple ibook?

    How can I mark a book as read or completed in Apple ibook?

    After researching this further, I have concluded that the update feature is working correctly. What I was expecting was that once the iPod would sync with my Mac, that the updating, including marking the podcast as read would take place at that point. In reality, this function does not take place until I click on "Update" in iTunes. During that process the various blue dots of those Podcasts listened to go away, and Podcasts that are outside the parameters of those I want to retain are deleted.
    So, if indeed, as long as I have completed the entire Podcast, the update functions are working properly.

    What do you mean by 'return a book to the library' ? You can exit a book and go back to the bookshelf by tapping the book so that you get the menu bar at the top, and then tap the 'Library' button at the top left of that. To delete a book from the bookshelf tap the Edit button at the top of the bookshelf

  • HT4059 How can I move a book from one device to another

    How can I move an iBook from one device to another

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:
