I'm unable to download books from the iCloud that I previously purchased.

The books appear in iBooks with a cloud in the upper right, but after they "download" the icon just appears again and I can't open the book.  I did a "reset all" which didn't fix it.  I tried logging into the iCloud again, but that didn't do it.  This is a replacement iPad mini from the apple store because the speaker went out on the previous one.  I did back up everything in iCloud before going in to get the replacement.  I also just got the book to download on my iPhone!?  What can I do to get the book back on my iPad mini?

I've done a a restart, uninstalled/reinstalled iBooks, and even tried deleting the data from the iCloud in hopes that the purchased content wouldn't have the cloud icon, but rather the normal download icon after a book is purchased.  None of this resolved it as the titles still show a cloud icon, even in the iBooks store. 
When you purchase anything on the iPad, you will see the same iCloud download button next whatever it is that you would like to download again. iBooks show the download button directly on the book in the Purchased Collection in the iBooks app, but in the store, you will see the same download button that you see next to apps in the App Store. You already purchased the books so this icon is going to show. It will not go back to the regular download button again. If it did, you would have to pay for it again.
Are you having problems with any other downloads at all? Can you download previously purchased apps, new apps, songs, .... any problems with those?
Have you tried signing out of your Apple ID and see if that will "refresh" your account? Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad, and sign in again.
if you feel that there is an issue with your account and need help from store support, email them here.

    I changed to ipad air 2 and am unable to download books from overdrive. I am connected to wifi and have tried every option on the overdrive site. It closes everytime I try to download a file.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, restart your internet modem and router then try downloading books.

    Hi! how can I delete a book from the iCloud? I bought the wrong book ... is for adults and I have kids...so

    The most comprehensive delete method I know about is to delete the book from iTunes on the computer you sync your iPad with.  You'll be asked if you're sure, and it will be deleted from your iPad and any other i-Device you sync to.
    I think that's the best you can do.

  • How do you download photos from the icloud back to your phone?

    How do you download photos from the icloud back to your phone? I want to save my photos on my hard drive and not in the cloud.

    iPhoto 9.2 (and higher) can move your Photo Stream files and store them permanately on your computer and move them to your phone.
    You can also move them on your iPhone from Photo Stream to Camera Roll.

  • HT4539 how do I download information from the cloud.  I just purchased a new phone?

    How do you download information from the cloud?  I just purchased a new phone?

    What information are you referring to?  You may mean restoring an iCloud backup from a previous device.  Or you may mean adding iCloud calendars, contacts, etc. to your iPhone.
    In the former case (restoring a backup), the setup assistant should walk you through that process.
    In the latter case (adding contacts, etc.), simply set up your iPhone as an iCloud device in Settings > iCloud.

  • I upddated my I Pad and installed I Cloud now I connect find the I Pod feature, I download books from the library when I connect it to the computer it shows the book in the I Pad but I cannot find where to open it

      I updated my I Pad now I cannot see the I Pod Icon that is where the books I download from the library where before.  I also noticed that I Pod Icon disappeared from my I Phone.  When I connect my I Pad to the computer it shows the book there, but I cannot figure out how to access it.

    There is a OneClickdigital ereader available in the App Store. Download that to your iPod to read pdfs and books from the library. And you might need to download the OneClickdigital eaudio player to listen to audiobooks from the library. Once both are downloaded sync you iPod again to transfer them.

  • How do i stop my iphone from downloading music from the icloud when its on shuffle

    Due to the limited space on my iphone, i only keep certain songs on it at one time. But when i play all music on shuffle, My iPhone is downloading songs from itunes match that i dont want. I only want the phone to shuffle through the songs already on my phone. When im out on 3G, it doesn't do it as i have music over 3G disabled in the settings, but at home on wifi, there doesn't seem to be a way to stop this happening. The other issue this causes, is that those songs then dont want to be deleted because they are not fully downloaded. Its a pain

    In Settings > Music set "show all music" to OFF (not green).

    I subscribed to Music Match with iTunes and yet my ipad settings for Music only still has the option to subscribe, and therefore I cannot click on an option to Activagte iTunes Match, since it is not there. I have all the right number of songs from the icloud showing up in my ipad now, and I have played a few, but when I tried to turn off the computer, it showed a field stating that my ipad music would stop playing too, and it did. I thought this might have something to do with homesharing, but this I thought was something separate from iCloud.
    There is something wrong, but I don't understand what. It has just synced, but the problem persists.

    Home sharing is separate from iTunes Match.  Sounds like you were playing music using home sharing, which turned off when you turned off your computer.
    Open iTunes on your computer and go to the Store menu.  Confirm that there is a setting called Turn Off iTunes Match.  That will confirm that iTunes Match is enabled on your computer.  Then check to see what Apple ID you subscribed to iTunes Match with.  It will be the ID in Store>View Account (in parentheses).
    On your iPad, confirm that you are signed in with this same ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store (at the top).  If so, you should see an iTunes Match setting listed with an on/off slider.  Slide it on to enable iTunes Match on your iPad.

  • How can I delete my music from the iCloud that is now on my phone?

    After downloading the new update, ALL of my 1500 songs from the iCloud are now on my phone. I have over 300 kid songs because I am a teacher and I really don't want all of them on my personal phone. I have joined iTunes Match to try to get rid of them. Everytime I hide or delete them, they are still on my phone. When I sync again, they go back on my computer. HELP!

  • Unable to Download Applications from the Nokia Sto...

    hello im Hashim i cannot download app in store why
    Moderator's Note: The subject was amended as the post was moved to the correct board.

    I have two possible reasons:
    1. You don't have an active internet connection.
    2. You are not signed in to Nokia Store with your Nokia account.
    Both should be met before you can download an application from the Store. If your phone complied to these two preconditions and you are still unable to download any application, try to check if there's an update available for the Nokia Store itself. Once you go to Nokia Store, it will notify you if there's an update for the client or not. You can also use Nokia Suite to check for an update.
    If there's none, try to re-install the software of the phone using Nokia Suite, too. You can download it from here: http://www.nokia.com/global/support/nokia-suite/

  • HT4059 downloading books from the cloud

    i already purchased a book but can't seem to download to iBook it from the cloud.  When I go to Purchased, and tap on the book to download, it just refers me to Purchases and tap Download, which I have been doing.

    Are they showing up in the cloud or your phone, or as downloaded books ? If they are showing as downloaded then when do they reshow, after syncing with your Mac (which would imply that they are still on your Mac and being synced back from it), or randomly ? If they are showing as being in the cloud on your phone, and if you haven't already done so, then try logging out of your account via the Featured tab in the iBooks app on your phone and then log back in and see if they still show.
    To check that all of your books are showing in the iBooks app on your Mac, do File > Move Books From iTunes in it and see if that gets any others to show.
