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 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 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.

Only if you are running OS 10.9, which includes the iBooks app.

I want to buy a macbook pro.. but now I have a Packerd Bell with the programs: Word, Powerpoint,... I want those programs on my macbook pro too is this possible? and is it expensive?
Hello:
Expensive is relative...
Microsoft makes a version (written native for the Mac) of Office:

Some of us use iLife - an Apple product that almost seamlessly translates Microsoft programs (for example Word to Pages) back and forth. You can always export in a Microsoft format...

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. -

Correct. That is only a feature of iOS 5 or later...

Can I read a book I bought on iBooks in ipad1 on my kindle? I have the kindle all, want to read the book there and on the actual kindle so I can let a family member read it on the kindle and not have to lend them my ipad
No, purchased iBooks can only be read on the iPad. Of course, purchased Kindle books can be read in both places.

I have 2 icloud accounts how can i see them both on my macbook and iphone
I have 2 icloud accounts how can I see them both on my macbook and iphone?
iCloud doesn't have anything to do with texts or phone calls. Those are both tied to your phone number and SIM, not to an iCloud account.

Recently I needed to change my apple password on my iphone; now I can't get my email on my macbook pro and I have tried every permutation. How do I update my mbpro password?
If you didn't already do so, authorize your computer for the new ID by opening iTunes and going to Store>Authorize This Computer. Then sync your phone with iTunes.

I have a USA DVD which I would like to play on my macbook pro without using up the options to switch regions. Is there a way to do this?
Also can it be done through a DVD player attachment to an Ipad?program called MDRP to rip it...... then use Wondershare to convert it, also Iskysoft video converter is an option.
You dont have to put it ON the Ipad, once on the Mac, you can Stream it wifi to the Ipad using the $2 program called VLC STREAMER (not VLC, but streamer made by VLC),.... best APP for your Ipad to stream videos from your MAC to your Ipad.
A direct DVD to MP4 converter : http://www.xilisoft.com/dvd-to-mp4-converter-mac.html -

I just got the new macbook pro about 2 weeks ago, it has lion. When the new mountain lion comes this summer, can i just update it on my macbook pro since it isn't so old? And if i can update it, do i have to pay, or is it a free update?
I'm in the same position, the store said they didn't know of any new release, so i bought my macbook pro to find out about mountain lion. I really hope that i'm not going to pay for the upgrade. New to apple, also last month bought my Ipad 3, really thought that Airplay would have been on my book pro, nope, waste of time.........need that update to use it. Back i the box then, get the windows 7 ultimate pro back out until then.
