HT5557 why can't I sync my epub books to my ipad and ibooks

I have several epub books on my pc. when I try to sync them onto my ipad it says syncing but they never show up in ibooks on the ipad

The exact same thing has been happening to me. I've searched all over the Internet for an answer to the problem but nothings  listed. The problem started when I got my new Iphone 5 and started to sync it on my computer  from then on everything just went down hill. Every time I add epub files to itunes and then try to sync it to my ibooks library the files don't show up. I'm using the same method that I always used but nothing seems to work. Sometimes when I try to add a new epub file to my ibooks, ibooks would delete some of my other books. Then it's al whole new struggle to get my old files and the new ones back on ibooks. I really don't know what to do anymore..!!

    Sure you don't have the iPod set to manage the music manually?
    You can check by going to the 'summary' page and you will see the option to:
    "manually manage music". Is that selected?
    If you want to auto sync your music etc, you need to click on the 'music' tab, where you will see the option to:
    "sync music" with either "all songs and playlists" or "selected playlists".

  • Why can't I sync music from my mac to iPad?

    I'm having trouble syncing music from my MacBook Pro to my iPad. I have some music that is already transferred, but I can't seem to add new music. Any suggestions?

    Hi Zane
    Yes, I do that each time, but it makes no difference. I've had an iPhone with music on for ages, and this issue only happened when I update to iTunes 11 earlier on in the year.

  • Why can't I download a few books to my iPad? I've got an iTunes account.  I'm out of the country, but I was able to download a free book.

    I m out of the country and trying to download a few books to iBooks. I was able to download d a free book, now it tells me to contact iTunes support.

    Did you contact itunes support?
    You should not be able to use any country's itunes store from outside of that country.
    "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance."

  • HT4910 Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Why can't I sync notes from my iPhone 4S to my ipad mini?

    Hi Drumsing,
    As long as you have your iCloud account set up and signed in on both devices, and the Notes checke in iCloud on both devices, there is no reason they should not sync.
    Try resetting both devices - Hold down the Hole and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold until the Silver Apple appears. Do that for both, then try Notes again.
    P.S., after you write a note, you need to close the App on the device you wrote the note on before you open the app on the other device to see it.....
    Hope this helps,

  • Why can I only sync 2 audible accounts to my iPod

    why can I only sync 2 audible accounts to my iPod

    Why would you need to sync any more than just 1?  What exactly is happening? Need a bit more detail in order to assist you. 
    However, it sounds like it may be more of an Audible issue, in which case you should contact Audible's support.

    What message are you getting, if any?
    Is your iPad showing up in iTunes when you connect it? If not, unplug it from the computer and re-plug it. Sometimes it is best to try a different USB port.

    Why can't I sync my ipad air w/ my older Dell Computer?

    Start iTunes on the computer.
    Connect your iPad to the computer.
    SELECT your iPad in iTunes. Look for the small device icon in the top bar of iTunes. Click on that.
    A sidebar should be on the left.
    Select the Music, Photos, videos, App etc. that you want to have on your iPad.,
    Then click on Sync or Apply whichever shows.

    Accidents happen, and apple can certainly assist you with replacement of said device.  Most manufacters would tell you to buy a brand new retail unit, apple will charge you about half price for a replacement unit.  I agree its unfortunate that it happend, but expecting a free replacement is just going to lead to disappointment

  • HT1386 Why can't I sync my iPad to pc, it says this iPad cannot be used because the apple mobile device service is not started

    Why can't I sync my iPad to pc, it says this iPad cannot be used because the Apple mobile device service is not stated, the last time they were synced was December and I had no problem.

    Log in as an Admin User on your PC. Type 'Services' in the search area above when you click on start. (or see control panel and select Admistrative Tools.)
    Select the Services shortcut.  In the window that appears with your listed service, navigate to ipod service, Apple Mobile Device service, and, Bonjour Services.  Doubleclick them to get the property page.  Change startup to automatic, click apply.  Then click start,
    There is a known issue that when iTunes updates it incorrectly sets the Service startup type - this is normally due to installations on Vista and win7 services and  drivers that run in the Local Sstem requiring Admin account permissions that are not always granted with User Account Elevation, when running installations or updates in User account.
    Normally the Local System is set to inherit the User account permission token when being set up - but Apple in their infinite wisdom have a higher token in place for their services.  so a standard user cannot derogate the required elevation, even with the UAC to admin prompt, since the local system is owned by the Machine account and only Admin, bBackup, Restore, Machine, operator accounts carry the same descriptor permissions on process ownership to set these services correctly.
    Third party security programs, such as Kaspersky can also limit installations by User account installations, which adds to the problem.  I have had a few installations fail, even in Admin mode - because Kaspersky sits on par with the Main Machine Administrator account for watching program and installation directories and registry keys - (which have  higher privilege levels in some respects than the ordinary Admin account you normally start a new machine in before you add any other user accounts- all very confusing - but that's Microsoft all over for you.
    Follow Ralph's advice if you do not have the necessary software already installed.  You should install Apple's Application Management Software - which will look after the installation of all required elements for you and notify you of updates pending.  In options have it set to Notify only - not all updates may be requred, and this option allows you to see what is being installed.  It is good practice to set all updating software to Notify only - especially any thirdparty software - much of which carry all sorts of little 'extra's' you  may not need or want.
    It is also good practice to keep an eye on your Program and Features option in control panel, just to see what is being installed and when - including Windows updates.
    Sorry about the long reply, but with December being your last sync - a lot can change in the meantime. Best be prepared.
    Best wishes, Ct
