Hundreds of Books disappeared during migration from iTunes to iBooks. Where are they?

After the Mavericks upgrade, I tried to access my iBook library (containing hundreds of EPUB and PDF books, almost all of which weren't purchased from Apple) via iTunes.
I got the message to import them via iBooks (v 1.0). I did so, and all but two books disappeared. I was told by an Apple Genius that a fix was in the works. So I waited.
I installed iBooks 1.0.1, and redid the "Move Books from iTunes". None of my books were found - they'd all been removed from iTunes by the broken version of iBooks.
So where did iBooks 1.0 put my books? How can I get them back?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

They may well be lost.
I had the same, the whole snyc process over to iBooks did not work at all. Apple keeping quiet about it, because its such a major screw-up.
Luckily enough, I had a backup of all my pdf-books, so I imported them manually to iBooks. Some people suggested the books may be buried somewehre deep in your iTunes music library.  Well, they certianly weren't over here.
A true mess, and fully consistent with the recent f*** ups in iPhoto  (library sharing via Wifi has disappeared) and the much talked about missing features in Pages and Numbers (never used those cripples anyway as I need to do serious word porcessing and calculating, so these "kids-apps" are no alternative to Word and Excel)

  • My itunes were transferred where are they

    All my files from my Macbook were tranferred to my new Mac Air by Future Shop. All I can find is a quick view of them which has each song begin part way thorugh. I checked under my account and it shows all my purchases so where are they? Can't find my playlists either.

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Mac forum.
    Regards.

  • I can't find the T.V. Shows in the iTunes Music Store where are they?

    Hi ,
    I downloaded iTunes 6 because it said they now have tv shows that you can buy for your ipod but when I clicked on the music store in iTunes I could not see any T.V. Shows where are they?
    Thanks for your help,

    Unfortunately the tv shows part of the itunes store isn't available in some countries. If, like me, you're from outside the US (I'm in Australia) chances are that the itunes tv show store isn't available to you yet.

  • When I open up my emails and close them, they disappear and I cannot find them.  Where are they going?  Is there a setting that I have to change?

    Once I open up my emails they disappear and I cannot find them anymore.  Is there a setting that I need to change to stop this from happening?

    Are you tapping any of the icons at the of the Mail app after opening them, or do they disappear without you doing anything ? And if you have more than one account on the iPad, does it happen on your other accounts as well ?

  • I have lost all my apps and voicemails after updating both itunes and iphone, where are they?!?

    Contact iTunes support & request they add the lost music to your iTunes download queue:

    Hello cpikehfx, 
    Welcome to the forums. 
    You can try one of the two options below to work around your issue. 
    Drag and drop the files from the desired music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder using the computer.
    Open the desired music folder on the computer
    Go into Computer or My Computer and open the BlackBerry network drive
    Open the Music folder
    Drag the desired music files from the computer music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder
    Try a different Windows profile.
    Go into the Control Panel and create a new user account
    Put some music files in a folder that is accessible by all profiles or transfer them to the BlackBerry device
    Log out of the current profile and log into the new profile
    Transfer music into iTunes or Windows Media Player
    Launch BlackBerry Link and go through the setup configuring the music source of your choice
    Click on the Computer name in the bottom left corner of Link
    Select Music on the left side
    Drag and drop the desired music files from the list to the BlackBerry name in the bottom left corner of Link
    If neither of these options work for you then you will want to contact your mobile service provider and ask that this issues be escalate to BlackBerry support for investigation. 
    Hope this helps. Have a good day.

  • I think we should have been given the option to move books from iTunes to iBooks. All mine were downloaded CD booklets and inserts which were in their right place in iTunes. What do others think?

    I think we should have been given the option to have our books moved from iTunes to iBooks. All mine were CD booklets and inserts downloaded with the CDs, and the obvious place for them was in iTunes. As it is now, I can no longer use my own convention for naming, sorting etc. The sort facility in iBooks does not work. What do others think?

    You got the new iphone?????   I have same problem.  I transferred audiobooks to device to find no audiobooks on device (despite it being in iTunes as if it was).  Have you found a solution?????   I even tried to change import settings on format transfer but hasn't worked. 

  • I rented and downloaded two movies from iTunes via my iPad. They show up as purchased in items but won't play. They do not show up in iPad visor app at all. Any ideas on what happened and how to fix are welcome. Thanks

    I rented two movies from iTunes using my iPad. They show us as purchased but will not run from there. I get a message saying I have 24hours to watch then it just goes back to iTunes. I looked in video app where they usually go and nothing is there. Any ideas for a fix are welcome?
    Thanks

    You did try tapping on one of them in that list in the iPod app! This has happened to me and I was able to start the movie from there. You could try restarting the iPad, go into the iPod app and try again.
    Now I'm stumped unless it is a corrupt download. You did download right onto the iPad - correct? If you downloaded in iTunes, there is a Move tab or function that you have to select to transfer the movies to the iPad when you sync. They just don't sync over without selecting move.

    hi GK
              When u delete the request in ODS or CUBE u want to delete the available data on those targets.
    For deleting the datas in the targets u just right click on the ods or cube and give delete data so that if there is a data in the target it gets deleted. this is the main step u want to do when u reconstrcut the request and after doing this u can direclty schedule data to the target.
    In targets after completing the data transfer process activate it to get that data in report also. dont forget to do this
    In psa level there is no problem u can go and directly delete the request.
    Assign points and gain some points in SDN
    cheers
    bye

  • I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
    All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
    Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
    If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
    On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
    Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

  • I downloaded iOS 5.0.1 to my iPhone and all of my voicemails disappeared except a few from the last week.  Are they gone forever or is there a way to retrieve them?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you mean you deleted the files from Pages on your phone whilst using iCloud, then yes they will disappear from Pages on your iPad too.
    If you simply deleted the app from your phone, if you were using iCloud then they should not have disappeared from your iPad.
    It's not clear from your post, which of these you did.

    The question is not only how to to hide them, but also how to mark them as watched!
