I purchased book, it shows downloaded but  when I open it says " failed to load because requested resource is missing"

I purchased a book in I books and it's shows downloaded but when I go to open it reads " failed to load because requested resource is missing". how do I retrieve my book?

Hello Mike,
I am sure you are eager to read the new book you purchased. I have a few suggestions to download and open your book.
First, I recommend deleting the book from iBooks and downloading it from your list of past purchases using the steps in the following article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

If the book still does not download or open, you can report an issue with this purchase using the steps in this article:

  • TS1424 Purchased book "The Fish That Ate The Whale". In the Purchased window, my previous purchased books are labeled "downloaded" but The Fish has a cloud ikon and will not download.

    Purchased book "The Fish That Ate The Whale". In the Purchased window, my previous purchased books are labeled "downloaded" but The Fish has a cloud ikon and will not download. I have tried to delete the book but no response.
    Redirected to Store and searched for The Fish. Description came up, pressed Download, message: you have previously purchased this book, go to Purchased and press Download. Followed instructions and message: you have previously purchased....... I'm in a loop.

    Hi there.
    Thank you very much for your quick reply, it's really appreciated.
    No need to apologize, I actually found the phrase "If your iPad ever craps the bed" amusing under the circumstances
    I checked the list of installed apps like you suggested (Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Show all apps) but this problem app is not in the list. I have also swiped down on the home screen to search for it, but again it does not show.
    While it has not let me download the app (and I just tried it again) it has helped me to eliminate a few things from the list of what to try, and I can definitely conclude that it has not downloaded.
    I guess I need to fire up my PC and download it / sync my iPad.
    Thanks again for your help

  • Hi, i had to restore my ipod 5G and it says its in recovery mode and its saying ipod software downloading but when its done it says it timed out i tried like 5 times what should i do

    hi, i had to restore my ipod 5G and it says its in recovery mode and its saying ipod software downloading but when its done it says it timed out i tried like 5 times what should i do

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer

  • When my I tunes Match has been downloaded but when i open I Tunes I do not see it in the left hand column. I have to go to I tunes store about and click on it.

    When my I tunes Match has been downloaded but when i open I Tunes I do not see it in the left hand column. I have to go to I tunes store about and click on it.

    When the match process is not running iTunes match will not be present in the side bar, this is normal behavior.
    If you go to store in the iTunes menu bar you should see "Turn off iTunes match" and "update iTunes match".
    When the match process runs, after you have restarted iTunes, or manually selected update iTunes match it will re-appear in your sidebar.

  • Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized.

    Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized. I see how to do it one at a time with the "download" button in Dropbox but that's so cumbersome for lots of photos.

    Hello Akiva 1959,
    It sounds like you have made some purchases in iBooks, and when you try to download them you get this error message that the resource cannot be found. I would report this issue to our iTunes Store support directly with this article:

  • My iBooks were fine yesterday,today unable to read, message comes up; failure to load book because requested resource is missing".  What do they want?

    My iBooks were fine yesterday, today unable to get into book, message comes up, "failure to load book because requested resource missing"  
    It doesn't tell me what resource is missing, & why could I read this 12 hours ago fine.

    I've got a solution, it's not so perfect, but i bet someone would come out with a better one based on mine.
    Solution:
    Step 1: close iBooks app and delete all existing book data
    Since I have recently lost all files in my ibooks library due to something wrong with Time Machine backup, I could delete all my book data without anything to worry about.
    I deleted all files in:
    /Users/[usename]/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBoo ks
    and the iBook configuration files (well, the whole folder):
    /Users/zlw/Library/Containers/com.apple.iBooksX
    It doesn't matter if you have deleted the whole iBooksX folder, what you would lose at most is the bookmark data, etc.
    deleting all the files inside the iBooks folder of BKAgentService will enable you to redownload the file that you want correctly.
    Step 2:
    reopen iBooks and you will be able to download the book that you want.
    Possible improvement:
    there is a Books.plist file in the iBooks folder of BKAgentService, it might be possible to modify the plist and and the folders so that it's not necessary to delete them all.

  • I am unbale to read my downloaded Ibooks on my Ipad mini. message says ' failed to load book because requested resource is missing" ?

    i am unable to see downloaded iooks on my ipad

    You have to be at your original source where you downloaded your iTunes account (mine was my home computer).  Delete the iBooks app, turn off your iPad. When you are back home or where you originally downloaded iTunes re-download the iBooks app. All your purchases will be there, deleting app does not delete your purchases but you may have to re-download all your books again.  The key is to be at the original iTunes download spot.  Good luck.

  • I just got a new Nano and I synced to itunes.  My computer tells me to eject before disconnecting but when I try, it says I shouldn't because the files are in use by another application.  What does that mean?

    Can someone please help me?

    There may be a background application running that accesses mounted volumes.  The iPod storage "disk" is a mounted volume.  For example, this applicaiton may be something that monitors for data corruption or malware ("viruses").  If you know of such an application that you have running, and it has settings that allow you to ignore particular volumes, set it to ignore the iPod's disk.
    Alternately, if you use automatic syncing (instead of the manual method) to load the shuffle, turn OFF the Enable disk use setting (unless you actually use the iPod as a storage disk).  With disk use NOT enabled, iTunes only mounts the iPod's disk when syncing.  At other times, the iPod's disk is unmounted.  Therefore, "other" applications cannot access the iPod's disk and make it "in use."  Because the iPod's disk is not mounted (unless iTunes is syncing), you can actually disconnect the iPod without clicking the Eject button.
