I can't read a book on my Macbook Pro..

Im just wondering if someone can help me!!
I brought a book off iTunes and i don't know how to read it?

If you buy books on iBooks, they will be in the EPUB format. You can’t put these files on your Kindle, but you can convert them to MOBI, which you can. To do that, you can use something like Calibre.

  • I have iBooks on my phone. Can I read those books on my MacBook Pro too?

    I have diwnloaded several books on my iPhone 4s. I would like to read them on my MacBook Pro. Is there a way I can do that through iCloud or something?

    The iOS-Version you have bought can be installed for free that is correcty - to all your idevices ( iPod,iPhone.. )
    That is because they share the same processor ( ARM in iOS vs Intel in Mac's )  , Operating System and support these mini apps.
    Mac OS X can not execute iOS apps and vice versa an iDevice can not execute Macintosh apps.
    So you would need to purchase  this OS X version : http://itunes.apple.com/de/app/pages/id409201541?mt=12
    The Documents created with either pages version, no matter if iOS or OSX can be cross-exchanged , synced and edited  ( else it would'nt make sense ).

  • Can I read e-books on my MacBook Pro

    I have seen the neat new iPads and other competing products e.g. Motorola Xoom etc.  I love my MacBookPro...is there an app for my MacBook Pro that I can use for an ebook?

    I have Stanza and Kindle apps on my MacBook Pro, and those plus iBooks on my iPhone.  Between them they cover most of the bases.

  • I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  My iBook library does not show up in iTunes.

    I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  Some of my iBooks show up in my iTunes but they are "grayed" out.  The only books that respond in iTunes are audiobooks and that's not what I'm looking for.  Is this a stupid question?

    Nevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro.  If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook.  Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad.  Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.

  • How do i read a book on my macbook pro?

    I'm having difficulty reading books on my MacBook Pro.  I can read them on my iPad with no problem and I can't figure out how to read them on the MBP

    What's the source, and/or what format are they in?
    Some sources offer Mac client software (check their websites or the App Store), and for some formats there are converters available (google for them).

  • Can't access My Book Live from Macbook pro

    Hi  I have a Macbook Pro running Yosemite. It sees the mybook live in finder but will not connect. I also can not connect to the dashboard. I have tried downloading the set up software and again it sees the drive but will not connect??? I can access the drive and dashboard from 2 ipads, my phone, an imac and a windows laptop all on the same network??? If I sign in on My Cloud it can see the drive but once again when you try and connect it fails. I have even tried mounting it and unmounting it from terminal and it says successful but cant actually get to anything? All firmware is updated Help! Thanks Lester

    Thanks for the reply. Yes I have tried that and it comes back can't connect. That's why I tried the set up software which does see the drive but can't access it. All other devices on the network don't have an issue. The really strange thing is when I am in my office on the garden we use a power line adaptor connected to our hub which creates a new network extended of our normal one.. When the MacBook is on that network it connects to the my book no problem. Back in the house it can see the drive (even shows in finder) but can't access it!
    I even looked up how to check the drive using terminal on the Mac and it shows up fine. I unmounted and remounted it using terminal but it has made no difference.

  • I can only read e-books on my laptop. How do I get them unto my e-reader? It has something to do with the Adobe ID.

    Hello,
    just now I downloaden an e-book from the library and I wanted to copy it to my e-reader. I needed an Adobe ID but I forgot my password (and the website to get a new password wasn't working) so I clicked on 'open without authorization' but now I can only read the book on my laptop and not copy it unto my e-reader. Anyone an idea how I can  undo this? Because I did manage to retrieve a new password.
    Thanks for your help!

    It need to be removed from the computer you sold with it activated on. If you want to use that activation on a different computer. If you wiped that computer you need to contact Adobe this is a user forum users here do not have access to Adobe Activation servers and databases.
