IBooks - hidden categries?
Hi there - I would like to purchase a few cookery books from the istore and have found 1 or 2 by searching for the author but I can't find the food & cookery book category even though when I find the book eg by Gordon Ramsay it tells me it is in this category. Is there a way to browse all the books in the food / cookery books category and if so how do I get it to show up?
Many thanks
I don't get that category either - I'm also in the UK so maybe they don't think we need that category here.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!My apologies for the lack of photos, here is my post again with photos.

Unlocking hidden frames and strokes for iBooks Author
Perhaps you know that there are hidden frames and strokes available for Pages, Keynote, and Numbers. There is even an installer (http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/32390/frames-and-strokes-installer).
These same frames and strokes are available on iBooks Author.
Work on a backup copy for safety, of course.

Hidden chapters/ pages on iBooks Author
Is there a way of having "hidden" chapters or pages in an iBook so that you can only see them when a reference link is pressed? I would like to add some user stories in a book that will be available only upon request of the reader without interrupting the reading experience.
This sounds great K T. I will try ASAP.
Thanks for the quick reply! -
My iBook doesn't show the hidden files on my pen drive
Hi there,
I have a 1 Gb Kingston pen drive to transfer files from/to my work PC (which is a Windows PC).
The pen drive works seamlessly on the Windows PC. But when using it on Mac iBook G4 it always leaves some "markers" of the files used like "._trash". These are not very big, but I wonder:
1) Why does Mac create those apparently useless files?
2) Why can I only see those apparently useless files on Windows PCs but not on Mac? (i.e. if I didn't have to regularly use a Windows PC my pen drive would get filled up with useless information without me even knowing)
3) Why can I add or alter files from Mac to pen drive, but I cannot simply delete files on the pen drive using my Mac (again, I need to retort to my olde Windows PC to do such a "basic" operation).
I always press the eject button before unplugging my pen drive.
I always find annoying that external devices that work just fine and as expected on Windows PCs create endless problems and issues when connected to Mac (have similar issues with my Sony digital camera).
Thank you for your help and time
MarcoHello Soave
Hope to answer some Qs.
1) The files aren't useless to OS X. Please follow this link to read more.
2) Mac OS X is based around Unix. In Unix, the convention to hide files is to prefix a full-stop. Windows does not recognise this as a hidden file and hence will simply show them with the preceding full-stop.
3) I can't answer this one as I can see no reason why you should be allowed to alter them but not delete them. It's obvious you have write access to them. I use a thumb drive on my Mac and I have no such problems.
I haven't personally used it, but this program might be of use to you.

Creating hidden/invisible BUT searchable iBook test
I have produced an iBook that is all jpg images.
I would like to add hidden text, of the OCR text of the pages, to allow the page images to be searchable in iBooks.
I know that <img src="p1.jpg" alt="word1 word2 blah blah"> and the <meta ....> tags do not produce searchable pages.
Is there a trick that will work. The iBook looks great, but isn't searchable. Searchable would make it p

My files have become hidden - how do I get at them?
I was trying to free up some space on my hard drive as I was showing only 3.5 out of 40GB available. I read a thread in this forum that suggested downloading whatsize to see what could be done away with. Whatsize showed a second user with my name but a . in front that was using up 17GB's. I logged off my computer - which I never do - to see if when I logged back on this other user would show up. Instead my screen had reverted to the way it looked when I first bought my ibook (new). The user name is mine and it responds to my password but I cannot find my photos, docs or music files. The hard drive is still showing as nearly full so I assume that the files are in here somewhere. I tried logging on as the root user - but I still could not find my files. Now I have purchased an external hard drive (250 GB's) - can I dump the entire contents of my drive onto the external drive and try to find the files that way? Please help me. I do not know where to look and I do not want to cause any further damage. Thanks for your time!
ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)Tamara:
In your first post in another thread, you said:
So I looked in the help menu to try to delete the user. It said to turn off filevault. I tried and was told I did not have enough diskspace.
Have you been able to do anything about turning FileWault off? I suspect that you were not able to, since FileVault saves your User Folder in a sparseimage which occupies as much space as your Users Folder. In order to be able to turn FileVault off, you need that much space more. This article gives you a bit more information about the issue.
Buying an external HDD is a good move. Actually that would have been my first recommendation. I hope that you bought a firewire external HDD, as you cannot make a bootable clone on a USB device. So, go ahead and clone your entire internal HDD to the external Firewire HDD using SuperDuper. SD will make a bootable clone from which you will later boot your computer.
(The . in front of your user name indicates it is a hidden file. It might be that your Home Folder was renamed, with a . in front of it. You can try downloading Wizzard and see if it shows your hidden folder. Note: This is a parenthesis; I suggest backing up and disabling FileVault first).
Post back and let me know how it is going, and we will see what comes next.
Good luck.

Problem with wpa and hidden ssid
hi,
I have a powerbook g4 (1,67ghz). i am having trouble connecting to a netgear router mr814 v3 if i use wpa and hidden ssid, i get a message, that the router would not support wpa!
there is no problem with wep and hidden ssid or wpa with no hidden ssid.
is also have no problems with wpa and hidden ssid with an ibook.
the problems occur only with the powerbook with os x 10.3.9 as well as 10.4.2. even after the recent airport update, no change.
thanks for the help,
benI would use WPA and broadcast your SSID.
It use to be useful, but closing your Airport or wireless network (sometimes referred to as not broadcasting your SSID) is really no longer a real option when it comes to wireless security.
Unfortunately "Closed" networks, MAC access control lists, and reduction in transmission power are all more "feel good" security rather than real security. All these various approaches are dated and mistakenly lead to overconfidence.
WPA is your friend if you value wireless security.
My recommendation is not to worry about broadcasting your SSID but use WPA. This will be more secure than a closed WEP encrypted network. Closing your network makes it very difficult for neighbouring networks to see which channels are free thus causing potential interference problems.
Another thing to consider is that a closed network is still broadcasting and therefore is detectable (regardless of whether it is broadcasting a SSID). If someone was determined to hack into your network, then not broadcasting your SSID and MAC address access control is not going to stop them.
WPA is virtually uncrackable (only really vunerable to a dictionary attack if a real word is used as a password) and therefore will stop the casual user and the determined hacker. -
How can I create links to other pages in iBooks that will function in PDF?
Hi,
I know some people have asked previously how to create links to other pages of their book within iBooks. I having an issue with this myself that I haven't been able to resolve. I am able to create the links, and they seem to function within the program, however, once I export the document as a PDF file (the format in which I need to have this ebook!), the links seem to be non-functional. Does anybody have a fix for this?
Thank you so much for any suggestions you may have!! I really need to figure this out for my client.
Regards,
MeggynExporting as a PDF does alter/lose/remove certain functions. Adobe Acrobat has its own page navigation system.
A lot of the hidden engine of iBooks Author is basically very similar to building a website! so links and books marks are an "internal" function.
IF you have Acrobat and not just the Adobe Reader, you can make links. I have never needed to try, but I see a working link related index in the many software manuals I have. -
How Can I copy purchased books from my MAC book iBooks to my iPhone iBoooks
I wasn't sure where to put this because it has to do with my Macbook air and my iPhone 5S and iBooks on both units.
I am using iBooks version 1.01 (281) on my MAC book Air. My OS is OS X version 10.9.4 Mavericks.
About two weeks ago, I upgraded my iPhone 4S to a iPhone 5S (64 gigabyte). I currently have iOS 8.0 on the iPhone.
So, I have lots of books that I have purchased over the years from iTunes and now iBooks. All of them have been backed up to the cloud. They were also backed up to iTunes on my MAC from my 4S.
I tried to download the books from my iCloud to my iBooks on the new 5S and it all worked. But there is one missing book. (Staying Strong by Demi Lovato) I have purchased this book three times from iBooks. All three purchases are still listed in my purchase history there. It is in my MAC book iBooks library (but no longer in iTunes because Apple separated the Apps a while ago). And I can read it there. But it is NOT in the iCloud for some reason.
Everything I find on the Apple site refers to iTunes which is outdated since it is no longer part if iTunes (now it's a separate app). Where can I find information on how to copy the book from my iBooks app library to my iPhone iBooks app so I can read it on my iPhone 5S? Is there a way to even do this? Do I have to buy it agin for the fourth time?
I don't want to go back to that lousy PC?When I connected my iPhone, it automatically synced right away. I did click on the iPhone button and saw the contents of my iPhone including the Books. When I clicked that 'Books' button. But since the book in question was not on my iPhone, it did not show up in the list so I could not select it like you suggested. Therefore I could not sync that book to my iPhone. Thanks for the help though.
The good news is I did manage to get the book on to my iPhone.
When her book came out for preorder about a year or two ago, I looked for it in the iTunes store and preordered it. About a week after it came out, I found what was basically the same book for a dollar more. ($7.99 and $8.99) I figured there must be something additional (features) in the $8.99 book. So I bought it too. As far as I could tell though, they were exactly the same. So I decided to hide one of them so they would not both show up in my Library. Anyway, I went to my iTunes/iBooks account and managed the hidden books area. I unhid the Demi book and then it showed up in my iCloud to download on my iPhone. Now they are both on my computer so I need to figure out which one is the other one and hide it. So then I can delete it from my computer just have the one that is on my iPhone on both systems. But at least I found a way to get a copy on my iPhone. -
We have a sales tool that we have created for one of our clients in iBooks Author. They need the iBook creating in various languages.
We need to be able to supply the multiple versions of the same document (in the different languages) to our client and they need to be able to install the different versions onto their iPads. And they want the options of having multiple language versions on the same iPads.
We have already created two language versions of the document (a US English and an International English version).
The two documents have different file names, (although they are based on the same document). We have just changed the spelling of some words accordingly. (And we will be producing other language variants based on the master file).
We export the two documents via the File > Export > iBooks option. Then we are using Dropbox to upload the two files. The files are then accessed via the Dropbox App on the iPad.
We can download the first document (International English) onto the iPad and view it as normal, but when we try and then download the other document (US English) it downloads in the Dropbox App, but when you click on view in iBooks it opens the first (International English) document into iBooks.
You can only appear to have one version of the document installed at any one time. If you delete the first one you can then load the second one fine, but not both at the same time. If the file names are different it must be getting the identity of the document from somewhere else.
This has only started happening since using iBooks Author 2.
Can anyone offer any suggestions please. I've tried changing the version number in the option on export, but this doesn't seem to affect the result.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
JohnFurther to my earlier post we have now completed a test by saving our original document as a template, then creating a new document from the template, making necessary changes and saving as a new file. We can now upload the two separate versions to our iPad.
You cannot "duplicate" the file in any way, either by the File > Duplicate method from within iBooks Author or by simply Duplicating the original .iba file in the Finder, as this will cause the problem outlined above. By Duplicating you are obviously also duplicating this "hidden metadata" which is stored somewhere within the file which iBooks on the iPad is using to identify the documents. So unless Apple update the software to allow us to change that metadata we are stuck to using the Templates route. (Didn't have this problem on the last version of iBooks Author).
This works for what we are trying to do, which is create different language variants of the same book.
Working from Templates is probably the correct way to do it anyway, but might not necessarily be right for everyone.
Working in iBooks Author is proving to be a rather testing experience. You certainly need the patience of a Saint. Not sure it's of the standard we expect from Apple, but then I guess, as they are giving it away "free", they think they don't have to offer any support for it.
I think I would prefer to pay a fee for it and have a support route from Apple, rather than rely on a community of equally frustrated users who are all playing guinea pig and simply sharing their workarounds for a half baked product.
Good luck to everyone!!! -
Dear All,
I started to generate on my MacBook, with the Tools provided with XCode 5, to generate a dictionary for the Dictionary App which runs fine on my Max OSX machines. Now I wonder if there is a way to upload the dictionary to the hidden dictionary app of iOS to use the dictionary on iPad and iPhone via the "define"-option of highlighted words. All of curse under the assumption both applications use the same dictionary formate, what I guess since both outputs look very similar. The hidden app of iOS downloads dictionaries somehow from iCloud as the cloud symbol suggests. But does anyone know how to upload dictionaries to there e.g. from a MacBook to be able to download it subsequently with iPad or iPhone in the "manage"-Mode of the hidden dictionary app?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
JuergenSOLVED!!!!!
This is the app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dictionary.appender/id650562573?mt=8
I emailed the maker of the app and he said to just follow these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094
File share the .dictionary file to your ipad and then add it from the list of addable languages. It took a minute for it to show up on my ipad but it DID work. It is working with iBooks.
Happy reading.
Thanks for the help and suggestions. -
Dear Apple, my name is Jack, and I recently upgraded my computer to the new OSX 10.9, which included among many other apps the iBooks one, in this new iBooks app for Mac I accidentally downloaded by mistake a sort of obscene japanese comic book, since the moment that this happened I've been trying to remove this content from my iBooks library, which is being impossible due to the fact that even if a successfully delete the book with the backspace key it still appears but with an iCloud symbol, and if I go to my iCloud settings theres no options to stop iBooks form sharing this on iCloud for there is no "iBooks" option on iCloud settings, I even followed a Tutorial on the apple web page about hiding your purchases that explains how to, but in this new version of iTunes there is no such option as "connect" under the Store menu of iTunes, or even if I make my way to my iTunes purchases this new iBook purchases does not appear. I just want to be able to open my new iBooks app without having to see this obscene japanese comic book all over the app. My request is for you people to add an option to completely remove books from the library and from iCloud, please, so far these new OSX was amazing and this is the very first time I have something to complain about.
Well as a matter of fact, I already found the solution. The option is a little bit hidden, and this will remove your purchases completely from the library and iCloud. What you have to do is this: 1.- Open iBooks app, and the first thing you will get it's your library, then at the top left corner of the window click on iBooks Store. Once iBooks store is open you will have four options at the top: "Featured", "Top Charts", "Categories" and "Top Authors", you have to click on "Featured" or "Categories" it's the same but you have to be on any of those two.
2.- Once you are in "Featured" or "Categories" at the right side of the window there's going to be your email address that you use as your apple id, and in "Categories" you will see at the right side the topic "All Categories" and bellow that you will see your email address again. Doesn't matter if you are on categories or featured the option bellow your apple id is going to be QUICK LINKS, and bellow that there's gonna be four options: Account. Purchased, Redeem and Support. Click on Purchased.
3.-Once you clicked on purchased and the Purchased window is open you will see in the middle of the window two options : "All" and "Not in my Library", click on "All", then you will have all your purchases, there you will only have to put the cursor on the book you want to completely delete, but without clicking on it, just putting the cursor in the book and a black cross will appear at the top left corner of the book, click on the cross, if it ask you are sure you want to hide or delete the content just click the affirmative option.
4.- In the top left corner click library again, once in your library you have to find the options that are at the very top of your screen, the ones that are in the same bar as your computer name, date and time, volume and in the case of macbooks the wifi signal and the battery. Those options are: iBooks, File, Edit, View, Go, Store, Window and Help. Click on "View" , when you get all the options of "View" you'll have to find the one that says "Show Purchases in iCloud" and most likely would have a check mark, if it does not have a check mark close it and skip to step 5, if it does have a check mark just click on this option so the check mark disappears.
5.- Last step. Now you just have to close the app, completely, so go to your dock and give a secondary click on iBooks app and on the secondary click options click Quit. Just open iBooks again and there will be there no more.
Hope this is of some help to any of you, and sorry if this was tricky or if I'm not very good at explaining. I figured this by myself so if any of you does not get this explanation just send me an email, I'll be happy to help you with it.

PDF File in iBooks but all images blank?
Hi - I have imported a PDF file into iBooks (it is a tearsheet from a publisher of some of my photography that is published). I really need to see the images in this PDF, not just the text. I am hoping to use the iPad to show my portfolio - and this tearsheet is an important piece of this.
Any idea why the PDF would show only text, and not the images? Is there a standard format that is missing here - or some incompatibility? When I view the PDF on my mac, it works fine. on the iPad, none of the images are shown.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

http://facebook.com/JoshTrefethenPhotographyI have had mixed success. In some of my PDFs the images show, in others there are missing. Most have been down loaded from the Web, so there is no information on how they were made. One that was generated by printing a powerpoint to PDF looks great. All of the PDFs that were processed by Acrobat to Reduce the File Size were NOT readable for versions 6 or higher. Only the version "5 and up" had visible images. Other Acrobat operations, such as remove hidden objects, did not mess up the images.
There appears to be a formatting disagreement between Apple and Acrobat for versions 6 and higher.
good luck -
Anyone know of an app other than iBooks for pdfs?
Been fighting for far too long with unsyncable iPads and MBA. Upgrading to Mavericks has hidden all 7000 plus pdfs I had in iBooks. Suddenly a month or so ago they reappeared but most were not in the collections I put them in and the names I saved them under were changed back to the original file name. A couple of weeks ago they disappeared again. Adding them again from Dropbox and Evernote where I have them backed up is of no use as iBooks just hide them again
I am done with this. It is completely unusable.
So, can any one recommend an app that works the way iBooks is supposed to work?There are a couple iPad/iPhone apps but the one that seems to work the best is this one here and it's only $19.99 and is also 3D. I don't know of a similar app for Mac.
