IBOOKS alerts not working

I have set up alerts for several authors, who have published new books, but I have received no email alerts -  know they have published books since I set alerts up can anyone help?

Hmm. Thanks for the tip - although won't work for me, since mine was already switched to off. I switched it on, then off again, and have restarted my iPad. That didn't work - in fact, it switched it back on once it was restarted, and when I highlighted a word, the only option I got was Speak.
So I turned speech off again, force-quit iBooks, and it's still back to where I was - the dictionary not working.
UGH.
All this, and even after yesterday's app update from Apple, it still doesn't work.

  • Ibook is not working with the new ios 5.01 any ideas why?

    After updating to ios 5.01, Ibook is not working.
    When selecting Ibook, the software tries to open and then closes immediately.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks

    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.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit IBooks and restart. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.

  • Why are my alerts not working?

    Why are my alerts not working?  Sometimes the alerts work and other times I have to manually retrieve messages.

    You can set alerts at verizonwireless.com, and you can set alerts on most smartphones as well, and those can be highly customized as to when you are alerted.
    Go to settings, data usage, and there are/should be options to view, limit, and alert you as to your mobile data usage on the phone itself.

  • IBooks bookmarks not working after 1.2 upgrade

    I have noticed the bookmarks on my iPad iBooks are not working after upgrading to 1.2 today.
    I am unable to bookmark pages when I need to. It only works sporadically.
    I have also noticed when closing a book and reopening, the book opens at last bookmarked page instead of last page read.
    Please advice about any fix.

    Same problem here, Bookmark always worked properly before iOS 5. I too noticed this while reading Steve's biography, ironic??
    I have noticed that besides it appearing on previous page, that if I turn to lanscape and chose the bookmark it is appearing on the right of the second page of the two that appears as should be. So I wonder if this is some problem of formating between landscape 2 page view and the single page portrait view?
    My two cents but this is sure annoying!  I have not seen it jump back like some noticed however, just previous page in portrait view!

  • 6300 & Lotus Notes - Calander Alert Not Working

    I've not changed any thing that I am aware of from the defaults and its less than a week or two old so I'm hoping its not a software OS bug and a user issue / some thing I have to switch on some where.

  • Why ibook is not working on my mini ipad

    Q. Why ibook is not working on mini ipad?

    Have you tried closing the iBooks app via the iPad's taskbar and seeing if your books open when you re-open the app ?
    Closing an app : iOS: Force an app to close.
    The search field should show if you drag the bookshelf down, that should reveal the search box above the bookshelf - is that how you are trying to get to it ? If it is then see if the app closing also fixes it

  • IPhone 6 Plus LED alert not working.

    I have always used the iPhone's LED flashing alert to notify me when I get a call or text message. While I was on iOS 8 Beta 2-4 it was working fine. I did a clean install of the complete iOS 8 release and ever since then, the flash alert doesn't work.
    Sometimes it will work on incoming calls, but will not work on text messages. I've tried soft/hard rebooting, clean wipe and fresh installs, and pretty much anything in between. Now, today I got my 128GB Gold ATT iPhone 6 Plus, and it's the same thing. Updated to iOS 8.1, reset everything/deleted all contents and settings. Both fresh install, and iCloud backups and still no alerts on text messages, but now I get them on calls. I tried my girls ATT 128GB iPhone 6 and she has the same problem too. My old phone was a 64GB iPhone 5S and hers was a 32GB iPhone 5. Everything was good until the official release of iOS 8.
    I've tried searching for related issues, and haven't found anything since 2011 with a quick Google search. Most links just tell you how to turn the flash alert on but no new issues. All of my devices are on iOS 8.1.  I gave my father my 64GB 5S with a clean install and he still has the issue as well. So, that makes my iPhone 6 Plus, my girls iPhone 6 and my fathers iPhone 5S not flashing LED on messages and sometimes calls. There aren't any custom vibrations enabled on any if the devices. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is it a known bug or am I just not doing something right here? i never had an issue before the iOS 8 release. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Ringtones and BBM alerts not working

    Hi, I have created several custom ringtones and phone alerts on both mine and my husbands new BB 9320's . These were working just fine for the first few weeks but now the custom BBM alerts will not work on my phone but the custom ringtones do work.  Instead of the custom alert I've selected the alert sound for the normal profile is the one that sounds. However the custom alerts DO work for text messages ! Just not BBM !
    My husbands phone has the exact opposite problem, BBM alerts work, ringtones don't !
    The problem seems to have happened after I had installed some various Apps . So I uninstalled all those apps and I've done both a soft reboot and battery pull on each phone trying to fix this. I also deleted those contacts and their custom alert set-ups and re-added everything from scratch, rebooted again, still nothing. It's been like this for a few weeks now, I just can't figure it out .  Please help !

  • Sound alerts not working in Mail and Ichat apps since upgrade to 10.4.9

    I just noticed my Sound alets not working in Mail and Ichat apps since upgrade to 10.4.9.
    I'm using soundsticks which is playing sounds thru quicktime, itunes, etc but my alert sounds for getting new emails and IM messages is not working. I get the quick "white flash" on the screen instead. I checked the prefs on both apps and it is set to give me the alert sound, I can even test it in the ichat pref when I change the new message alert sound it will play it thru my speakers but when I get a new message in either app it just gives me the white flash.
    I'm read that it can be an issue of not having the balance in the system sound pref set the middle, so I checked that, restarted, all that but still no luck.
    I really like the sound alert features because I can be in another part of my house, turn the sound way up and I'll know when one of my clients is trying to reach me but now I can't do that.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Browse in iBooks does not work when tapping on an author nothing appears, does anyone else have this problem?

    Browse in iBooks on my iPad does not work. When tapping on the author name nothing appears. Is anyone else having this problem?

    it does not show up in photostream in iphoto on my imac. Everything is activated and turned on.
    Just in case, on your iMac, open System Preferences > iCloud
    Make sure Photo Stream is switched to on.
    If it was already on, switch that off. Restart your iMac, restart your iPhone.
    See if photos sync between the iMac and iPhone.

  • Alerts not working when formula is in the cell

    I am having a problem where my alerts are not working in the preview mode.  They work fine when I hard code the alert range.  But I need the alert to change under differnt conditions and I am using an IF statement
    the formula is simple
    =IF('TXF Inputs'!D27=3, C34/2, C34)
    output is either 0.375 or 0.375/2 = 0.1875
    if i hardcode the cell with either of these values the alert works, but it does not work with the formula.  The confusing part is that I have other alerts that have IF statements in them and they all work.
    They also work fine in the main screen, ie it shows yellow if my default values =0.1875, but then when I preview or publish they don't work
