Try deleting iBooks and then download it again to get it to show up again. Check out the article below for further troubleshooting options.

  • HT4623 I have an ipad mini.  When I tried to update my apps many of them have been showing a "waiting" message for two days and I cannot open the app or delete the app.  Any ideas?

    Double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar...tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle...tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap the Home button when finished. Try to delete the app now.

  • "This message cannot be sent at this time."  I have been getting this pop-up for 3 days when trying to send out mail.  I don't know what to do!  I cannot send mail from this account on any ISP. Please help!

    lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
    does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
    if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that

  • IMessage and FaceTime are waiting activation for two days

    Hi, two days ago I changed my ‘self-cut’ sim-card to nano-sim art my carrier office.
    For 20 days before that iMessage and Facetime worked perfectly fine with two different carriers, they activated normally.
    But after the moment I put new sim-card into iPhone it just quit working. It's always ‘waiting for activation’ on my phone number (works normally with e-mails though).
    It's mostly iMessage I'm worried about.
    I've tried:
    1. Turn off iMessage, reset network settings, turn off the phone, turn on the phone, turn on iMessage;
    2. Turn off iMessage, check that ‘My Info’ in Mail, Contacts and Calendars is correct, turn on iMessage;
    3. Reset to the factory settings, after that — I've tried to activate it on ‘clear’ device, same result, so I recovered all my info from the backup.
    4. Went to my carrier office, changed three sim-cards (1 — nano-sim, 2 — micro-sim, which I cut, 3 — nano-sim again), no result.
    5. Put my latest sim-card into other iPhone 5 — no activation in 5 minutes.
    6. Put another sim-card of this carrier into my iPhone — no activation in 5 minutes.
    I'm already desperate here, my carrier says ‘you have to ask Apple Support’, Apple Support is on answermachine that says ‘ask your carrier’, I just need my iMessage working normally

    Hello, I can understand how frustrating this is.
    I spoke to Apple just now, and they're aware. There's no solution, except to wait it out. Because of the 5s launch and iOS 7, Apple's servers are supposedly being hammered. A more senior Apple rep thought there will be delay up to 48 hours.
    I have a 5s, and so does my friend. We both have the same issue as you.
    This article may be helpful, just in case:

    Thomas,
    There are many similar reports since yesterday. The Apple Print Services seem to be down, see:
    Re: Trying to buy  book I created. When I hit "checkout" nothing happens. It's not like Apple to not want to make more money. Any ideas?
    Try again later.

  • My facebook app has been frozen in "waiting" mode for over two hours, since I tried to do the updates...Can anybody help?

    My facebook app has been frozen in the "waiting" mode for over 2 hours, since I tried to do the updates...Can anyone help?

    I would suggest uninstalling the app, if it is app that you install, or buy. I also think that you should try getting a ipod touch trouble shooting book.

  • IPod 5th Gen doesn't find any WiFi signals after battery was dead for two days.

    I recently bought an ipod 5th generation, it only has the selfie camera (no back camera).
    My battery then ran out, and my iPod was dead for two days.
    My iPod charging cable wasn't working, so i went out to buy a new one.
    After charging it with the new cable, it would not connect to the internet.
    My brother has a 4th generation ipod and his picks up and connects to the wifi signal we have here at home, but mine won't even pick up the signal, or any wifi signals period.
    I looked around here on the Apple Support but found nothing that helped, I already reset my network settings.
    Is there any way to fix this?

    If not this
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Hi, I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1, to iOS 6, and it's ridiculously slow, I can't sync to my computer, (manually manage music), and all of my photos were gone. How can I get my photos back? It says restoring photos, but it's said that for two days now!

    Hi, I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1, to iOS 6, and it's ridiculously slow, I can't sync to my computer, (manually manage music), and all of my photos were gone. How can I get my photos back? It says restoring photos, but it's said that for two days now!

    It just does't sync. I connect it to itunes, but nothing happens. Where it says how much space I have, it's just on ebig bar that says other. I can play my music on itunes, but not when i unplug it.
    All of my photos were gone, i took and saved them with my ipod.
    The photo app is saying restoring.
    What should i do?

  • New iPhone 6 Plus has been "downloading" my photos from iCloud for two days now. Is this normal? If not, any advice?

    I recently upgraded from iPhone 5s to iPhone 6 Plus. When I go to view my photos, all of them are blank and at the bottom, it says "Downloading..." It has been this way for two days, but hasn't really downloaded any of my photos yet. Does it normally take this long? Is there anything I can do to speed it up?

    IF you are getting no messages period - not just no iMessages - then it is very likely a carrier issue. It is AT&T and not the phone. SMS travels via the carrier wave used to make phone calls - iMessages use data and go through Apple servers as you know
    If you are getting no messages at all - then I wonder if your cell service is ok or if you are in an area of strong signal - then does your SIM card need to be looked at

  • After Lightroom CC update, PS & Bridge fail to update and get error U43M1D204.  Retried for two days still same error.

    After installing the lightroom CC update, PS and Bridge reported they had updates.  When trying to update I get the error U43M1D204 and it fails.  Retried for two days now and still cannot get it to work.  Tried removing PS and Bridge but there is no uninstall or reinstall options.

    UPDATE:  I managed to get both uninstalled and they re-installed ok.  They reported installing ok but required a patch and that failed.  So back to the same issue, I cannot patch these two applications.
    Forgot to add details:
    Macbook Pro 13" (Late 2014)
    Up to date Mac OS X Yosemite
    Up to date Creative Cloud
