I purchased a book..it's in my library..but it won't open up. How do I open it up? I am able to open up all of my free books.
I bought a iBook for my ipad2. It's in my library on the shelf but I cannot open it. Can anyone tell me how.... Please .
If tapping on it doesn't open it, then there are a few things hat you could try. Assuming that the books is still available in the store then you could try deleting it and re-downloading it.
You could also try closing the iBooks app completely and then seeing if you can open that book when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with iBooks 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Another option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
After that it's probably a case of deleting the iBooks app itself and then re-downloading/syncing it and all your books - in which case you should first make sure that you've either got copies of all of the books on your computer or that they are still available for re-download from the store. You will also lose any notes/highlights that you've made in the app

I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice. Also, a second library was created and it became the default library. I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open. what can I do to revert to the old library?
Both iPhotos open to a default library (#2) which has 300+ photos, I attempted to "switch to library" under the file tab in iPhoto and tried to choose "other library" which had most of my photos. When I attempt to open it, it doesn't do anything. I can see it and there are 2 libraries but it won't open.
Have you tried to open your old iPhoto library by double-clicking it directly, instead of using the File menu? That should work, if you are running iPhoto '11 and the library has been created by that version or an older version. DO you get an error message, if you select the library directly in the Finder?
I checked and it is the latest version of iPhoto.
Is it iPhoto '11, version 6.0.5? "Latest version" is ambiguous, because it will depend on your system version.

Did you buy/download the book from Apple, or did it come from another source ? If it's Apple ibook then try closing the iBooks app completely and see if the book works after you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e.not with the iBooks app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

I purchased a book for my iPad through iBooks the cover of the book appears when I click on it a description appears but I am not able to open the book nor can I open the books I have previously purchased and when I hit the download arrow nothing happens
Sometimes simply restarting your iTunes, the computer and the iPad is all that it takes to correct an issue like this so try that. Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, and restart the iPad. Then try the sync again.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

I have a Mac Pro using OSX 10.7.4. When using apple mail I click on the address icon to obtain email address and nothing happens. I've restarted both the application and the Mac but still won't open address book. Any ideas please.
Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
Are you using iCloud?
For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account. -
I have downloades Logic Pro 9 onto my older modfel Mac Book Pro 1,1 with OS 10.6.8 and 2 GB RAM, according to the rquirements for Logic 9. the program should run on OS 10.6.8. with 2 GB RAM, 4 GB better, but it won't open. Is my configutation too slow?
Looks as if you're just at the minimum specs - http://www.apple.com/logicpro/specs/. Says 2GB minimum, 4GB recommended. And 2GB of RAM is all the RAM the 1,1 can handle. If I were you I would call Apple's App Store service center - you have the minimum requirements, as I read it, but perhaps you need a faster processor?
I had a 1,1 but sold it when I bought my late 2011 in March of this year - maybe it's time to look at a new machine?

I recently installed iTunes on my new HP laptop computer, authorized it according to the instructions, but now can't get past a screen that tells me that I need to authorize the computer. I purchased an album and it's in the library, but it won't sync.

I have photoshop cc and a mac book pro. I cannot access my photos from photoshop. I can go to iPhoto and click edit to edit them in photoshop, but photoshop won't open them. I want to do a collage, so I need to get to more than one photo.
See if exporting them helps:

I have a book in my library but when I went open to continue to read "failed to load book because the requests resource is missing"? Where is it.
Swipe to the right from your home screen and do a search. See if the app shows up. If it does - tap on it just to make sure that it works.
You can swipe from screen to screen to look for it in order to find the icon. It may have ended up on a far off screen or in a folder somewhere on the iPad. -
I purchased Creative Suite 6 Design Standard for windows, but I now have a MacBook, how can I download it onto my Mac - please tell me I don't need to spend another £1000!!
Change product platform or language
You can swap languages/platforms for a latest version product (CS6 only) if you follow the instructions at the following link:

Alternative: If you wish to continue using the software on the Windows machine as well then your only recourse without buying again would be to install a Windows emulator on the Mac so that it has the rght environment to install in -
I just purchased a game but it won't open
a giftcard was used to buy a game. It is showing that the game is purchased but it won't open. There is a plus sign in the open box and when you click open nothing happens.
Hi bryce77,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has some steps you can try if your game will not open:

If, after completing the steps above, you're still unable to get the game to launch, you can report the app to the iTunes Store:

I purchased TV shows, I was billed for them, but they won't play on my Macbook because it says they are a certain HD that doesn't work - I am trying to find a way to return the shows or buy them in the right format
I am using MAC OSx 10.5.8 (9L31a) as my operation system. The TV says "No signal. Check connected device's power, cable connection and source selection." Seems to me that that goes in hand with what the Samsung tech said about the Mac needing to be forces to use the external display. But how do I do that?

Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'. I followed suggestions from the apple site to clear various library files - mainly relating to Qmaster but this didn't make any difference, an iwonder igf perhaps this is the reason for the compressor 4 programme not working. Thanks

How do I get the table of contents to toggle? It has remained open since I opened it while reading two books ago. Thanks for the help.
Thank you for your advice. I followed your directions, but came up with the same results. However, I did discover that whenever I open up the iPhoto Library that is already existing on my MacBook a certain set of pictures shows up. But then when I open up the iPhoto Library from the Hard drive another set of pictures shows up. BUT not ALL of my pictures are showing up on the iPhoto Library from the hard drive. At least the last two years of pictures are not showing up?! Actually, it appears that all the pictures are there from when I started using iPhoto about 5 years ago up until around the time that I got my iMac desktop computer and started using that (2 years ago). I have noticed that more recent videos I have made are showing up in a folder on the hard drive, but will not appear when I open up iMovie?! Any ideas on how to access my pictures from the last 2 years off of the hard drive???

have purchased ringtone on iphone 4 not in my itunes library when i click devices, transfer purchases from, it appears in tones in my library but in a paler shade of print with a dotted circle to the left of it, if i try to click on it or take any other action it disappears and leave a blank space i have tried this several time i want to transfer library to my new iphone 5 but i will loose the ringtone
I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!! (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
Solution for the problem:
1 - go to your IPhone settings
2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
Should solve your problem :~)
