Ibook author ate my book can someone help get it back?

I have started writing my ibook in ibook author. All was fine till 3 weeks ago.
Now I can see it as a preview in ibook store says "proof" on it, I can read it.. see it, but I can't reopen it in ibook author to edit and continue to write..
Pls help
I am a desperate writer who is a first time writer in ibook author ...

Presumanbly the  "Proof" you  see in iBooks - is on either your mac or your iPad.. after you deciided to Preview it.
Unless you physically deleted it... it which case  check the Trash,  - the book is on your computer, if you failed to open a folder to hold your iBooks Author file, which will have .iba suffix  -   MyBook.iba,  then  use the menu option OPEN or OPEN RECENT and look in Documents.
To make it easier to keep track, I create a folder in Documents  " My iBooks 2013"   in that I had a folder using the  title of the current book. later  the screenshots and title page images can be kept there and  when you export your book, its better to have the "myBook.ibook file  in the same place.

  • I updated my Iphone4 and had the m.calendar app with all of my daily temperatures saved, since the update after even after synching the iphone to itunes I have lost months of tracking I am devastated!! can anyone help get it back

    I don't understand this answer. What do you mean " your contacts should be in whatever program/service you have selected to sync."? The address book is created on the phone not in Itunes or any other program/service. When Itunes says backing up phone I have to assume it backs up everything on the phone. Most of what's on my phone does not come out of itunes. I download apps directly on the phone. When the software updates it does not bring those apps back. I have to go into the appstore and install them all over again. Itunes music library syncs with whatever is on the device your linked up to BUT the phone book just dissappears after you update the phone. There is no way to save it anywhere else.

  • Can someone help me fix back my iPhone 4?

    Hi There, Can someone please help me fix my iPhone 4. Six months ago i bought a Factory unlock Iphone 4, and i have been using it and always update it with the latest firmware although i live in Ghana and i use MTN network, until one week ago i have bought a new one and give the old one as gift to my friend... Unfortunately he called to tell me that it is not working. I got it back, put my SIM card the one it was used on the same phone for 6 months, and i get always that invalid sim card with no access to the iphone; only emergency calls... connect it back to the iTune and i can only restore it and get the same message: The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported... it is weird because the same SIM was working in this phone, also that i put it in the new phone and it works fine.... Can someone suggest how can i fix back my iPhone?! PLease....

    It sounds to me like this iPhone was jailbroken, not factory unlocked, and your friend either restored or upgraded the operating system which locked the iPhone back to its original carrier. You probably will need to take this up with whoever you purchased the iPhone from originally, as they may have either lied to you about it being truly unlocked or were themselves mistaken.
    Regards.

  • Can someone help me with backing up my iphone over wifi then restoring it?

    basically i wanted to download the new ios 8 on my iphone 5c, i did not have enough memory and was unable to get onto a laptop/pc. i went onto settings>icloud>storage&backup>back up over wifi. i enable back up over wifi so when connected to wifi it will automatically back up, anyway after enabling this i pressed back up now and it backed my iphone up. i then started to delete apps and PHOTOS to get enough space, i then was able to get onto a laptop and tried to restore my iphone but it would not let me . it said i had to download ios 8 first then it would restore my device so i tried this and it will not download the new update, i still dont have enough memory to download the update but i do not want to delete more photos if i will be un able to get them back.
    basically if i delete more photos to make enough space for ios 8, and then restore my iphone will i get all of the photos, apps and games i had before i started to delete them (baring in mind i did back up my iphone over wifi)
    please help getting very worried over this, thanks

  • 10.9.2 stuck FaceTime icons in vcards - can someone help get rid of them

    Had to update due to SSL bug.  Apple snuck in a change to Contacts: after long chat with support today, a higher up confirmed it's a feature introduced by the upgrade, to include icons for FaceTime, video and audio chats right smack among my contact's information.  No way to remove it in the template, I'm told it's there on the basis that the computer doesn't know which of my contacts is set up for chats so it's there just in case. 
    I don't want my vcards cluttered up with stuff I don't use.  It slows down data entry.  I have facetime and imessages turned off and never set them up. The offending icons are now on all my vcards, even old ones.
    Anyone have a fix? 
    Thanks!
    Screenshot:

    I concur with the original post. The logos should move or be gone. My work flow is severely disturbed by the icons. Its really upsetting my workflow, because they are visually in the way, begging to be clicked. Exactly as Apple wanted, I assume. But my 1000+ contacts are almost all business contacts.
    Accidentally hitting the FaceTime button of a business contact when I only wanted to copy or copy and paste is worrisome. I'll have to be "very careful" 50 times a day not to click the icons. And I'm not careful, I'm quick.
    I have tried many contact data bases over the years — and more recently several well-known cloud contacts systems — and have decided to use the simple Apple Contacts.
    Here's why; while it's missing many auto features, I have found that simple is best. Data is backed up on Apple cloud. My iPhone, iPad and Air are all in sync, always, without any thinking.
    I have set up groups in contacts, which acts like tags, in that someone can belong to multiple groups. So I have groups by type of industry or by importance and also groups by where they are along the sales channel. There's a big of manual labor to click people in and out of sales channel groups, but its very quick and I like the control. I also have created team groups who I can email all at once. Also, often forget a name, but I can visually search for them by group to find them. The integration with Mac Mail makes this fool proof. The contact notes is perfect, because entering into a note on a contact does not require the "edit" button. And with shift, command, } the current date is added then I add a comment.
    Since groups can not be sub grouped — a failing of Mac contacts design — I use three letter codes in all saps for each group type. So at least they line up in a logical order. For sales channel groups I use numbers, such as "2 — Proposal – Needs" so sales is on top. And alphabetically categorized by sub groups.

  • (1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

    (1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

    There is no PDF available. I sent a link  to a page full of links and info not much different from the help files.
    There are many Free books in the iBooks store which will take you through the basics of iBA.
    I  like "Create your first Interactive book using iBooks Author"   its created by iBook-Widgets.com - who also  supply widgets at a price.. but the book is very free and very good.. search the iBooks store for their title.
    You cannot use iBA on an iPad, however, I also use the iPad app --  "Book Creater"   ( redjumper.net ) its very low priced around $3 or so. The people who  create it are helpful and friendly. You can distribut your books to friends and family  using  Dropbox or other cloud storage. If you want to creaet an ePub file and then upload to the iBooks store, its not difficult.  You create the book on your iPad. It is no where near as good as iBA for functionality.. but it spossible to  make really good eBooks.
    I think Applecare shoud come into effect with the language problems if it can be  found to be a glitch on the computer.  Applecare is product based and does not apply to software.
    Take it stage by stage,   visit your Apple store and   ask if they can solve the help files in langauges first, then  react to the answer, it could be they can solve the issue which leave you a clear path with iBA.
    Also you can  gather more indormation about how to use it with the help files.
    Try the info I have  included and   see how it develpops... any problems get back here and we can look for alternatives.
    try this... https://itunes.apple.com/app/id661166101?mt=8&&referrer=click%3Da63089e4-e3d4-49 e9-896a-58e0cfd50acf
    its the free version... if you like upgrade later.
    Happy New Year... hope its a good one....

  • I am having trouble syncing my books in itunes to my new iphone 5. Can someone help me? Thanks!

    Having trouble syncing books in my itunes to my iphone. I must be missing a step. Can someone help me? Thanks.

    How are you trying to do it ? If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S if you are using a Mac, control-S if using a PC.
    To sync books, connect the phone to your computer and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of iTunes select the Books tab :
    You should then be able to select which books/PDFs that you want to sync to the iBooks app (and/or which audiobooks to sync to the Music app).
    Is that how you are trying to do it ?

  • I have a mac book pro and have already downloaded adobe flash player. However when i go to watch a video it says "Block Plug In". But my adobe is already up to date. Can someone help me to fix this so i can watch videos?

    I have a mac book pro and have already downloaded adobe flash player. However when i go to watch a video it says "Blocked Plug In". But my adobe is already up to date. Can someone help me to fix this so i can watch videos?

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, 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). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 6
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 7
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
    Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
    Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 8
    Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Are you posting with it here?
    How long has it been since you did any hard drive maintenance?
    After six years of use, the hard drive may be so full that it is hampering performance.
    From http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/lackofram.html  :
    Determine the available space on your Mac OS X startup disk
    In Finder®, select the startup disk icon. For most users, this is Macintosh HD.
    Press the Command-I keyboard shortcut.
    The Info window for your startup disk opens. In the General pane, the Capacity, Available (free space), and space Used on your startup disk is displayed, as seen in the following screen shot:
    As a general rule of thumb: if the Available space on the Mac OS X startup disk is less than 10 GB, it is time to free some disk space. We suggest 10 GB as an absolute minimum as this is generally the amount of free space required to reinstall Mac OS X 10.5 and earlier via an Archive and Install and still preserve space for VM swap files. More free space is better. For example, users of FileVault may want to retain more free space than that occupied by their encrypted Home folder: disabling FileVault requires free space somewhat greater than the size of your encrypted Home folder.
    Even though Mac OS X 10.4 doesn't take as much space as Mac OS X 10.5, you still need to keep quite a bit of free space on your hard drive. A too-full hard drive is a common cause of system slowdowns.
    If you find that you do have enough disk space, post back and we will explore other potential problems.
