How do I open purchased book on mac?

You can't open ibooks bought/downloaded from Apple on a Mac, they can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch - Apple haven't made a Mac (or PC) reader for them.

  • HT4059 I purchased a book in iTunes but it does not open. It was saved in Books in iTunes. How do I open the book to read?

    How do I open a book purchased from iTunes and saved in Books?

    If this is an iBook, they can be read only on an iPad, iPod touch or iPhone. The same would apply to books sold in the iTunes Store as iOS apps.

  • TS1702 help!!!!  I cannot open books in ibooks,  says "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing"  how do i reopen purchased books?

    I cannot open open purchased books fro ibooks,  a window pops up saying "failed to load book because the requested resource is missing"  not sure what has happened, extremely frustrating.....does it have something to o with icloud?

    Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logou appears and let go of the button.
    Or try deleting the book and download it again. You can download it again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID.
    If that doesn't work either, sometimes deleting the iBooks app and reinstalling it may work. But art with the first two suggestions.

  • How do i open a book downloaded from itunes on my macbook pro since it is not a mobile device

    how do i open a book downloaded from itunes on my macbook pro since it is not a mobile device

    Okay i looked them up and YES they are compatible with macs. if it's formatted for windows then no it will not show up on the mac, you need to repartition it on windows or try and see if you can pick it up in Disk Utility on osX. The following link is for this HD but talking about a mac PowerBook, it should be the same for you even if you are using the Intel macs. http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/other-hardware-peripherals/146258-iomega-portab le-hard-drive-not-mounting.html

  • How do you open a book on your library shelf?

    Adobe digital editions is unnecessarily difficult to use.  It doesn't have to look like a library it just has to work.  I cannot seem to open a book or change the list on the shelf.  I want to change the order of the list and cannot do that.  Listen guys just make it easier.  Highlight your choice, select it and voila open it...and start reading.    ?  I downloaded a book and can't open it ---then all the way on the right side of the page it says missing.  How is it missing? It is on my list.
    someone please Help.
    Thank you

    I tried that but only had 3 choices.....open, delete and sometig else I can't see right now.  anyway...programmers should lie writers consider wh0 they are writing for.  Some of us, (and who are people who read most?Oldsters, invalids, those who are not physically active) are stay at home and older and not so computer savvy.  If your program is too convoluted for lots of people , your product will not get used and your company will not make any money. Your product will fall by the waside infavor of more easily used programs.
    I will work it out because I am not the type to give up.  But I will not enjoy it.  Thanks for your help.

    Don't panic!  Things aren't that bad.... We all expect programs to work in a certain way, based on what we thinkthey should do and how they should do it.  BUT - we're users, notprogrammers, so what THEY think is what WE have to work with.  So, how harda program is to use has a lot to do with the differences in viewpoint arebetween the programmers and you.  You can ease the pain by reading the HELPsection in ADE (F1 key from Library view), which has explanations of how itworks. You can change the display order in Library mode easily.  The upper rightcorner of the screen has a box that shows you how the library items arebeing displayed now.  Put your cursor on the small arrow next to it.  Clickon that arrow, and a drop-down box will show you what your options are -all seven of them. If an ebook is 'missing', it could be that the download process did notfinish correctly.  That could happen for a number of reasons beyond thecontrol of ADE, including disconnection before the ebook was finalized, a'hiccup' during the download, an issue with the ebook's data and other notso common problems.  Try deleting the title from your Library anddownloading the ebook again.  That's all I can suggest, because I haven'tfound a way to 'fix' that situation without doing another download. ============

    Have you downloaded or synced the (free) iBooks app to your iPhone ? The iBooks app is the only way that you can currently read Apple bought e-books. If you have got the iBooks app then you can either sync the book from your computer to your iPhone via the device's Books tab in iTunes (which you do in a similar way to how you sync music, apps, films etc to the phone). Or you can just download the book directly into the iBooks app on your iPhone (there is help on re-downloading here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519). There is also some info on the iBooks app in the iPhone manual which you can download from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/iphone/

  • HT201272 How can I delete "purchased books" in the store section of I Books?

    I have been trying to delete the "purchased books" section of I Books.  I inherited this I pad and would like to clear this section as there are questionable books.  I would like to delete them but don't know how.  I have already removed them from showing up in my library but would like to start fresh in "stores".   I do not want them available for downloading in the future.

    You can't permanently delete any items from an account's purchase history, all you can do is hide items : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If you log out of the existing account on the iPad (tap on the id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app) and then log in with your account then none of the previous owner's purchases should show.

  • How do I retrieve purchased books purchased through iBooks?

    I recently bought a few books on my ipad only to find out my it won't charge, sync, or recognize the cord at all. No big deal, it's getting exchanged, but I can't sync the books just bought! How do I retrieve my stuff with the new ipad?

    You didn't say what app you purchased them in, so I'm going to assume it's iBooks.
    When you get the new iPad set up on the same iTunes account, just go to the store within iBooks and then select "Purchased" on the bottom right corner. To the best of my recollection, it will let you download previously purchased books.
