I modified photos outside of ibook author, does it automatically update it

Hi
Is there a way to update photos that have been modified, say in Photoshop. As I am doing it now, I have to delete photo and re-add it; not an efficient process.
Thanks

I address this mainly to those who may view who have similar questions.
While its always good to send in feedback,  fact is the last update showed that in the main,  feedback ideas, suggestions and request have been - as yet - ignored.
The software is provided free and was created to suit Apples requirements for ebooks made for the iBooks store.
It should be remember Apple recommend  that the all content of a book  should be prepared OUTSIDE iBooks Author and when  editted to its final version, imported into iBA and tuned in as needed.
Text can be created in MS Word or iPages or any simple text editor and  imported into your book for a final edit.
iBA does have  an image editor = View > Adjust Image - which  will make basic corrections to images.
You can also "crop" using the Mask function.
Apple IMHO, are never going to  integrate an image editor anything near as good as Photoshop or any of its lesser functioned alternatives.
BellaGolfer: In your case, you  had the images prior to importing into your book, logically you still have that version. If at a later stage you have  changed the images, all that is needed is to drag and drop into the same imageholder in your book and  it/they replace your old version(s).
Ofcourse if you  want to change images or text  after your book is in the iBooks store... it will need a book update to be delivered.
Its better you use whatever image editor you are familiar with to adjust your images - and if needed, use the iBA Adjust Image to tweak if needed.
A very useful video showing  the functions etc,. of iBA can  viewed  and there is full iBA User Guide and other  must have  guides  which can be downloaded  from your   iTunes Connect > Deliver your Books page
To any newcomer wondering how to set up accounts - the user guide above takes you from that to delivering your  finished book.

  • IBooks Author does not open existing ibook

    I updated iBooks Author yesterday and saved an existing ibook on my Mac and USB drive. Today morning, the book is refusing to open, displaying a "invalid format" message. The file also apprears to have shrunk in size, from 250mb to 8kb.
    Any idea of what happened and how I can resolve this? Or would I have to re-do the whole thing?

    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.

  • 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.

  • When ever i click a picture in photo booth it does not automatically update its content is this a bug or i don't know how to do it?

    when ever i click a picture in photo booth it does not automatically update its content is this a bug or i don't know how to do it?
    whenever you click a picture in photobooth you have to manually insert it one by one in iphoto
    i want to know is there any other option in iphoto which can do this type of thing(adding pictures automatically to iphoto )
    so that i do not have to do it manually

    Once you take the photo with Photo Booth, select the photo in the tray at the bottom and click on the iPhoto button just abouve and to the left:
         Click to view full size
    That will import the photo into iPhoto automatically.  But PB does not import any and all photo taken into iPhoto automatically.  That choice is left to the user.

  • Dear community, what to do when iMovie does not automatically updates video from iPhoto. I've closed and reopen, restarted... still no good

    Dear community, what to do when iMovie does not automatically updates video from my iPhoto. Usually it will automatically generate new content, but now it's stuck 3 days behind the latest new iPhoto entries... I've restarted all programs, restarted the computer... what else?

    Ezy,
    I'm not sure what recourse you really have. My expectation would be that Apple is on the hook to warranty your computer, but they only warrant the machine you've got.
    The issue of exchange is fully in the hands of the dealer. If it were Apple, they would likely have had a longer return/exchange period (2 weeks is standard in the US, and I think they use the same timeframe internationally), and there have been some reports of people getting machines exchanged even if they were just outside the 2-week period.
    However, with Apple dealers, I think they are a little more concerned about old inventory. Who knows what Apple does when you give them back a last-gen Macbook. They probably sell it at a markdown, but even marked down, they still get a profit (most likely). When an authorized reseller gets stuck with an old machine, they probably have to sell it at a loss. Thus, I would expect resellers to be more afraid of holding onto discontinued models.
    That said, if they do a lot of business, they should appreciate the value of customer loyalty: it's usually better to lose money on one purchase than lose a customer (and all their future purchases). If you're a regular customer there, you could point out that disappointment could cause you to go to a competitor. That's playing a bit of hardball though.
    However, there is maybe an upshot to all of this... The new 13" model did not get the quad-core CPU's.. And it lost its dedicated graphics adapter. I've seen a decent number of people complaining that the new 13" model is worse than the previous one (the one I'm assuming you've gotten). So it might not be such a bad thing after all.

  • HT1414 My iPad does not automatically update the operating system.  Under the general tab in settings there should be Updates, but there isn't.  Advice plz?

    My iPad does not automatically update the operating system.how can I accomplish this?

    Your post says you are on iOS 4.3.2.  You need to be at least at iOS 5 to have a "Software Update" capability on your iPad.  Right now, you need to update your iPad using iTunes on your computer.
    Plug your iPad into iTunes (current version: 11.0.4).  Let it sync.  Then choose "Check for Updates" from the iPad's summary page in iTunes.

  • The new photo app and iBooks Author

    I updated to Mac Os-x 10.1.3 and when opening iBook Author, in the media picker under photos the new photo app is missing to pick photos.
    Does anyone have a solution? or do I need to be patient for an update.
    Brgds, Jelger

    OK some progress to report as a temporary fix. 
    It looks like when you install the Photo update the relationship between iBooks Author and your photos is broken because the media pane shows no images.  I had the same issue as Jelger. 
    However, iPhoto is still in your applications folder so I tried opening it (as I prefer the ability to organise photos in the old program).  To my surprise the act of opening iPhoto seemed to restore a link with Author.  So now, when I open Author I get access restored to my iPhoto library and can use my old working method. 
    Of course, this won't last for ever.  Apple will not support iPhoto any more so someday an update might affect it.  Also, if Apple bring out a fix to link Author and the new Photo this would break the link I have re-established with iPhoto.  I'm also concerned that an update linking Author to Photo will make navigation more difficult.  iPhoto has a natural structure for finding images to  put in books whereas Photo does not.
    Anyway, for the time being everything works again.....  I hope this helps.

  • IBooks Author does "real" 3D why doesn't Adobe

    We have been evaluating iBooks Author and it does "real" 3D. We have demo'd this using a Collada file and unlike ADPS's faux 3D it can be rotated in all direction and doesn't require the laborious creation of incrementally rotated still images.
    Why can't ADPS handle real 3D?

    I think 3D features should be split into a few areas:
    - 3D Animations to be used as decorative ways of navigation/interaction
    - 3D Support for serious content like models, simulations, visualisations.
    For the former, this could be done by adding HTML/script-like methods.
    The script could take a portion of the page, turn it into a sort of Canvas,
    and then handle it with CSS-like transformations.
    There are already a number of HTML-scripts that perform such an effect.
    You can incorporate them by using Web content items or pages in DPS.
    I wonder if it would be useful to have such animations (back) in InDesign.
    The Flash-driven Animation palet could be revised/revamped to do that.
    On the other hand, any feature in that direction (available in InDesign)
    will just lead to requests for more features. It would become bloated.
    Imagine InDesign doing Photoshop-like stuff; we'd be asking for more...
    So a separate application to do (3D) animations migth be a better way.
    For the latter (full heavy-weight 3D support), I think it's too soon.
    Bot tablet hardware and software is too weak to build such features
    into an app that does many other things as well. Of course, 3D games
    perform well on tablets, but these are totally dedicated to these tasks,
    and don't have to let 3D work alongside other (complex) techniques.
    So time will tell when full 3D support of any format (standard?) arrives.

  • Ibooks author does not launch properly on iMac (2007) using Lion

    Hi!
    My iBooks Author starts, but it shows that the machine is working and i cant choose anyting in my menue.
    Any sugestions?
    Trond

    I haven't heard of anyone having issues like this with iBooks Author, sorry.
    You may want to run Disk Utilty and check drive health and repair permissions to see if any issues turn up there. Be sure you have significant free space on ypur harddrive.
    Disable any 3rd party widgets that may not be fully compatible with Lion and don't use any betas.

  • IBook Author - does it produce iBooks, Apps or both?

    iBooks Author is capable of creating an interactive experience that blurs the line between book and app.
    For example:
    The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore
    It is located in the APP store, yet it falls under
    the books category. 
    However it doesn't appear in the Bookstore?
    http://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/fantastic-flying-books-mr./id438052647?mt=8
    We are using iBooks to produce an interactive multi-touch book. 
    Do all iBook authored products appear in the IBooks store?
    Is it possible to produce a multi-touch book with iBooks Author and be listed in the APP store?
    Thank you.

    iBooks Author creates a .iBooks file, which is used with the iOS app iBooks 2 on an iPad.
    Apps are built using Xcode.
    I have an app in the store that is in the Books category...the trick is to not call it a 'book' when submitting - mine is actually a user manual for a product. If you submit an app and call it a book, the review team tends to tell you to draft a book instead, rather than making an app, and submit to that part of the store.
    You can't put an iBook (file/product) in the App Store as an iOS app, sorry.

  • Does Sap automatically updates customer credit limit from Financial Doc?

    Hi Everyone
    Does the Sap automatically updates the customer credit limit from the Financial document(Letter of credit) assigned to particular sales order.
    I actually want to know that how can i configure the control at delivery order if i assigned the financial document at sales order.Does the system automatically creates or updates the credit limit of that customer to control over delivery order.
    If yes then how and i only want to handle credit management in the case financial document(letter of credit).
    Regards;Vijay Kumar

    Hi,
    Hi,
    yes it does.
    Note some important points
    Inautomatic credit control field "No Check field", you can enter the number of a requirement with which you can control when credit checks are not carried out. You can deactivate some or all checks. This allows fine tuning on an individual basis for defining credit-relevant transactions and when credit checks do not need to be carried out.
    A check should be made to see whether the payment guarantee form has changed (letter of credit, payment card). If the payment guarantee form has not changed and if the old net value does not exceed the new net value, then no credit check is carried out.

  • Mail does not automatically update on Mavericks 10.9.1

    My Mac Mail does not automatically download after the Mavericks 10.9.1 update on December 16th. I have set preferences to download automatically. It worked fine until recently but now i have to click get mail option to receive emails. It is true for all my accounts (Exchange, Google IMAP, Yahoo IMAP and iCloud IMAP).
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
    Envelope Index
    ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Warning: The process may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. For reasonable-sized mailboxes, it should only take a few minutes.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • In the Student and Teacher plan for $19.99 monthly, does it automatically update the programs when need to be?

    I currently have the cloud but the previous plan I purchased does not allow automatic updates, therefore I still have CS6, I am hoping with purchasing a new plan it will automatically be able to update the programs when they need to be updated.

    There are updates and upgrades.
    The Cloud app will automatically apply minor updates.
    Upgrades e.g. CC to CC 2014 have to be separately installed by the user whenever you are ready to install the major version upgrade.
