I created some iBooks in iBooks Author, but when uploaded to iPad, cover graphics do not change when opening different books; they remain on same graphic from book to book even though content changes accordingly. Solutions?

I recently created a number of books using iBooks Author. They are all part of a larger project, but due to size issues, individual sections were broken up into separate e-books. Each one of these e-books has different content and different cover graphics to differentiate between sections. Once finished, I exported each of them as iBooks and then uploaded them to my iPad. On the Books screen, all the iBooks show up just fine with the appropriate cover graphic and titles. When I select one to enter, its cover graphic zooms in and then the book opens into the table of contents. However, the second book I open always reverts to the cover graphic from the first book I entered. It will access the right content, but the cover graphic pulls up as the wrong section, which may lead to some confusion (given the manner these books will be distributed). After leaving it alone for a little while, I can usually access another book and have it pull up the correct cover graphic, but when I enter the second book, the same problem resurfaces.
Any thoughts on how to fix or troubleshoot this?

Update: Solved.
Either creating a new file or saving the old as a template file & renaming it solved my problem.

  • Hello.  I tried backing up my 4th gen. iPod touch to the 10/21/2014 settings, but when I tried that, it backed me up to the June 2014 settings, even though I back my iPod up everyday.  Is there anyway to back it up to the Oct. settings?  Thank you.

    If a restore to factory settings did not resolve the issue, it's a likely indicator of a hardware fault, meaning you'll need to or want to set up an appointment at your local Apple Store/Genius Bar.

  • All of a sudden Safari cannot connect to server when I go on certain websites. But when I tried these websites on the same computer from a different location they opened fine.

    I used to go on several websites without a problem, one being www.udel.edu/udsis   but now all of a sudden when I try to open these websites it says "Safari can't connect to server". At first I thought my computer had the problem, but when I tried the other mac in my house I had the same issue. The next day I visited family in another state and brought my computer with me, I typed those website addresses in and they opened without a problem. But now I'm back at home and I still can't open those websites. What gives?

    Leads one to suspect an ISP issue. Yours. Perhaps for the moment though. In any case I like to use OpenDNS servers for safety and speed.

  • Music has been removed from iTunes but still shows on iPad. It does not give me the option to hold and swipe to delete from my iPad.

    I have removed all unwanted music from my itunes library and then synced my ipad but the music is still there?  I tried to delete off the ipad by holding the song down to get the delete but it the delete option isn't there.  Nothing happens.  How can I remove the unwanted music from the ipad.

    If I turn it off can I still sync new music that I buy and want on all devices?

  • Does the eBooks created by iBooks Author support for iphone now?

    I have been read some blogs discussing that the iPhone could gain new support for ebooks made by iBooks Author. And now, I wanna know whether the prediction is true or not. I can' t find any annoucement from Apple to confirm this point. Does anyone answer my confusion.

    With the current software ..books created using iBooks Author cannot be viewed on iPhones.
    iBooks Author creates books that can only...be used with iPads and on Macs with Mavericks installed, by using iBooks.
    Thats it...no rumours. Blogs or to be more accurate...some of those who  contribute to them seem to either be totally stupid, or like to make themselves look as if they have inside knowledge.
    Apple created iBooks Author to allow self publishers create and publish books to the store. But not just novels or text only type books. iBA made these books allow audio / video ..and much much more than any novel. That being so....most interactive multi media books will not really display well on a screen the size if the iPhone.
    Apple are more concerned in getting iPads in use more by business and education at all levels.
    The only rumour that may well become fact is a larger sized screen for a bigger iPad  mid to late 2014.

  • Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email? So that the user can print it out.

    Is there any way to embed the pdf file in the book created in iBooks Author to make it available to be downloaded or sent to email?
    I'm making the book for children and there is one chapter providing coloring pages. So I wish to attach pdf files that allow users to download it at the end of chapter so that  they can print it out. Been searching through discussion, I've found some advice about taking screen snapshot page-by-page > then send the pics from photo album to email. However, I'm wondering if there's a way that make the process easier.

    Warehouse that PDF on your own server, then link to it from your book.

  • HT5071 How does Apple decide when a book - created in iBooks Author - is free versus when it is paid?

    I am considering creating a book made with iBooks Author but have a couple of unanswered questions. What determines how Apple chooses whether my book can make it into the ranks of being a paid book? In other words, I don't want to put a whole bunch of time and effort into creating a book that I want to sell, only to have Apple decide that the book can only be downloaded for free. Is there a way to guarantee that my book will be eligible to sell (as opposed to giving it away for free)? What are the requirements for creating a paid book in iBooks Author?

    There are no guarantees.
    I'm not sure, however, that if Apple decided it wasn't fit for publishing under a paid contract that they would then turn around and accept it as free, sorry. There are too many details involved and I'd think if you want it in the store you'd work to make it acceptable all around.
    See Apple - iTunes - Partner Programs - Book Publishers for publishing details.

  • Ibook author 2 will not open file created in ibook author

    ibook author 2 will not open file created in ibook author.  How can I find out what is causing this?  I read it might be a video file, but can't find out which one.
    TIA

    There should not be a simple issue just because of versions, I think.
    You may have a corrupted asset, as you seem to think. In that case, it's up to you to dig into the exact cause, sorry.
    Did you call support for this yet?

  • IBook created with iBooks Author does not appear on iPhone

    Hi,
    My daughter created and published a book using iBooks Author but it only shows up in the iPad and Mac version of iBooks.
    Is there a way to get it to work on the iPhone iBooks store as well?
    Thank you for your courage.

    I found the answer here. I guess I just didn't dig long enough!
    The short answer is that iBooks Author does not output a format that supports iPhone. Use Pages to generate an ePub file that supports iPhone, etc.

  • HT5071 How to download paid iBook created using iBook Author

    I would like to submit a paid iBook created using iBook Author and make it available to download in India. Apple does not support downloading paid iBooks in India. Is there a solution for this. Also, is there an enterprise deployment of iBooks ie limited distribution of paid iBook.

    Apple requires that books can only be sold through the Store. See iBooks Author: Publishing and distribution FAQ - Support for details otherwise.
    As always, feel free to use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu item for features you'd like added in the future, etc.

  • How to skale or increase text, when i read an ebook created by ibook-author?

    How to scale or increase text, when i read an ebook created by ibook-author?

    If the book is in portrait mode, the text is fluid - top of the screen is a resize option. Basically whole effect is the same as an ePub file.
    If reading a book in landscape mode, resizing text simply isn't an option because it's considered fixed format.
    I've been working with landscape only books and I tend to increase the size of my body text in iBooks Author - to at least size 18. It appears that although this would be large if printed, when displayed on an ipad it's closer to about size 12, which is standard anyway.

    The alert message is just telling you that a specific feature won't use the GPU. This message is innocuous. It only means that the processing of one specific, obsolete feature will use the CPU, not the GPU.
    Are you saying that After Effects won't start or open your project?
