IBooks not downloading after iCloud restore

After installing iOS 6 on my 3rd generation iPad and restoring from iCloud, about a third of my books in ibooks are stuck in the downloading state. They have an empty progress bar across the bottom, and in the Purchases page in the iBookstore they all show up as "Downloading."  I'm unable to select them and delete them.
I've tried deleting ibooks and restarting. When I reinstall ibooks, the same problems are there. Is there anyway to force ibooks to delete everything?
Thanks!

I'm having the same problem. I have the little black progress bars underneath my books but they never fill up with blue. They just sit there indefinitely. I've tried killing iBooks and restarting it but that hasn't helped. I'd rather not delete the iBooks app though because I have other ePub documents and PDF documents that I don't want to risk losing.

  • Photos not appearing after iCloud restore

    My previous iPad 2 was fully backed up on iCloud.  It failed and was replaced by Apple for a new one. I did an iCloud restore, which seemed like no problem, and no pictures showing up on new iPad. Message that it was downloading X # of photos, but nothing. Tried a restore on another spare iPod, and this time, no photos and no message about the # of photos. Repeated both 2 or 3 times. Same thing as before on each one. Any ideas? 

    A response I put together from another post. Also going into iTunes and choosing to sync phone to iCloud then back "this computer" sometimes works.
    First thing.. Stop where you are. Don't try to sync, update, hard reset, iCloud... Just stop.
    Check on your phone under 'SETTINGS' 'GENERAL' USAGE'. It should show some value for PHOTOSTREAM. Also, connect to iTunes and you will notice at the bottom of your phones summary page that there is a large amount of 'OTHER' data.
    I used third party software called iExplorer (formerly iPhone explorer). In this program you select 'MEDIA FOLDER', then 'DCIM'. In the various apple folders (IE: 101APPLE) you should be able to preview your photos and copy them to your desktop.
    From there sync them back to your device through iTunes or whatever method you use.
    There is a simpler solution I'm sure, which may involve using iExplorer to delete some .plist files then restart the phone and let it rebuild. I'm going to try it myself AFTER I've finished copying all the photos to my MAC
    Hope this helps.

    If this is your iCloud email account, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Mail off, then turn it on again.

  • Pictures not downloading from iCloud restore shows downloading but no pics

    Need help I just upgraded fron iPhone 4 to 5s updated from cloud everything worked great but it's been 24 hrs and it still says downloading pics any help would be great

    iPods (except for iPod touch) cannot access iCloud directly, even if you subscribe to iTunes Match.  The song files needs to be in the local library of the computer the iPod syncs to.  Are you saying that once you subscribed to iTunes Match, and matched or uploaded your iTunes music library songs into "the cloud," you deleted your local copies of ALL of your song files?
    If you are going to re-sync the iPod from empty, you may want to do a Restore on it, in case there is existing data corruption on the iPod's storage.  This will erase the iPod and re-install its software, giving it a fresh start.

  • Trial version does not download after I click on the download button.

    Trial version does not download after I click on the download button.

    After 'playing' some more I've come to the conclusion that this is an account specific problem.  Logged in to my wife's ID, same iMac, ran through setups and voila, all the sharing options are working.  I booted in to Safe Mode, logged out of iCloud, Twitter, restarted (normal), set up iCloud, etc again but still no services for me.  I hope one of our 'genius' community people can work this out (shouldn't have to) so I'm hoping Apple can sort this with their next update, if not sooner!

    My camera does not work after I restored the system, how can I use it again?
    Thank you for your help!

    Did try to restore "as new device" without using the backup after that?
    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo coes back again?

  • All my Notes disappeared after ICloud upgrade

    All my Notes disappeared after ICloud upgrade. I cannot find them, nor a way to recover them from backups?  Any ideas? This is a BIG hiccup!

    I posted this on another discussion:
    Similar problem:  I was at a store today and went to my Notes on iPhone 3GS to look up information recorded there about medications for an aging parent. I am syncing through iCloud so the same notes are on my iPhone, iPad 1, and desktop Mac (in Mail). I opened one note, but it didn't have the information I needed, so I went back to the main Notes list and picked another of the dozen notes. I was scrolling down through that note and then suddenly....poof....the note was gone. ALL the notes were gone. The note pad said NO NOTES. ***???!!!!
    They were gone from my iPad, too. The notes represent information gathered and organized from multiple years (with no problems until now). The notes are information I NEED. I created a test note, it showed up on my devices. Then I chose to delete it to see if a single key click could do that. The app requires a second click on a Delete Note button as confirmation. And there's no way to delete ALL notes while viewing a single note, deliberately OR accidentally.
    Any suggestions about how to recover the notes lost today? Thanks in advance.

  • Calendar is not syncing after iCloud

    Calendar is not syncing after iCloud

    I've had this problem ever since I got ICloud, months ago. I finally decided to sit at my computer all day until I figured it out and I finally found the answer!
    It's just a setting in Outlook-- a hard to find setting! I've given the link below, but also pasted the instructions here. Need to re-start and wait a few minutes for the changes to take place, but it worked for me! On this same page are also instructions for other apps and devices.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/enable-or-disable-add-ins-in-offi ce-programs-HA010034127.aspx
    Outlook
    On the Tools menu, click Trust Center, and then click Add-ins.
    View the add-ins and application extensions that are categorized as follows:
    Active Application Add-ins     Lists the extensions that are registered and currently running in your Office program.
    Inactive Application Add-ins     Lists the add-ins that are present on your computer but are not currently loaded. For example, smart tags or XML Schemas are active only when the document that references them is open. Another example is the COM add-ins that are listed in the COM Add-ins dialog box. If the check box for a COM add-in is selected, the add-in is active. If the check box for a COM add-in is cleared, the add-in is inactive. To learn how to open the COM Add-in dialog box, see the section called Turn off or manage the installed add-ins.
    Document Related Add-ins     Lists template files that are referenced by currently open documents.
    Disabled Application Add-ins     Lists add-ins that were automatically disabled because they are causing Office programs to crash.
    If you find "ICloud Outlook ADd-in" is listed in "Disabled Add-Ins",  click to highlight it, and then find  "MANAGE: COM Add-ins" below and click "Go".
    You will then see a list of all "Add-ins". Make sure ICloud Outlook Add-in is checked.
    You should now see it moved from "Disabled" to "Inactive". Restart your computer and it should become active. It will take a few minutes to sync once you restart and open Outlook.

  • Ibook not downloading

    Ibook not downloading to my iPad from iTunes U

    How about this... I'm having the same issue w/ my iPad. Bought 3 books tonight, only 1 downloaded. Other 2 show up on my bookshelf but have no progress in their status bar. When I click on purchases and try to download them it takes me back to my bookshelf and then gives me "you have already purchased these, go to purchases to download." It's this never-ending cycle!
    On my MacBook (running everything current), it shows that I've bought these books, but when I try to download them there I get "Cannot check for downloads. iTunes temporarily unavailable." I've re-booted everything (MacBook, iPad, modem, router), even re-installed iTunes.
    Then I tried my iPhone, was able to download other 2 books and then synced it to my MacBook, and then synced that to my iPad. Books showed up normal (was able to open them) once and then reverted back to the "will not open, blank status bar" like before.
    Have rebooted iPad lots, even did your steps 1, 2 & 3.
    Lol, help!

  • My apps are stuck on "Waiting..." when they have been downloaded after iCloud backup restore

    My apps were downloaded from my iCloud backup after restoring and updating to iOS 7 and it didn't work quite good. Many apps got stuck "Waiting...", but they're not downloading at all. I can access them through the app store purchased apps section or through multitasking. They work perfectly but the icon doesn't. I tried to delete them, re-download them, I tapped the app icon and nothing worked. What can I do?

    By the way, I've tried to sync it again with iTunes and it doesn't sync the "Waiting..." apps. Every time I plug my iPhone and try to check its apps, iTunes stops working for some unknown reason. I forgot to mention that it's an iPhone 4S. Can anyone please help me? This is getting pretty annoying, considering WhatsApp is among these damaged apps and I use it quite a lot.

  • ITunes sync after iCloud restore

    So after retoring from an iCloud backup, I found that I can't sync apps with my computer without deleting all of them from my iPhone? Anyone find a worksround to this?

    Thanks! I was hoping there was a way to store page/folder info for apps too, but this is more than fine.
    Looks like the backup includes all the user data for each app as well (or it's stored somewhere, anyway), since all the app configs and data seem to be there when I re-download the app. Nice!
    Followup question: what is "transfer purchases" for if you can't transfer them back to the device after a restore? I'm not complaining, just asking. What can you do with the transferred purchases?

  • Syncing with iTunes after iCloud Restore Syncs Unwanted Apps

    After I had restored my iPhones using a recent iCloud backup, some of my content such as certain videos and music needed to be installed through syncing with iTunes. All of my apps were arranged and installed as they were before the resoration. I had iTunes set to not automatically begin to sync when I plug in any of my iOS devices, so I can review the device first and then begin the sync. Upon plugging in my iPhone, I checked the applications tab, and all of the apps were arranged the way they were when I would unlock my iPhone; everything seemed normal. It would appear that the content that had not been restored through the iCloud restore would simply be installed though syncing with iTunes. The second I hit sync, iTunes began to restore my iPhone with a very early sync, as many of the apps I had deleted some time ago were being installed onto my phone, and my of the applications added since that specific sync were removed. What can I do to just have iTunes act as it should when finishing the restoration on my phone and not default to a stubborn sync? I'm currently restoring my phone from another recent iCloud backup to have all of my apps and their settings restored to how they were less than 12 hours ago.

    First make sure you have the most recent version of iTunes. Use the itunes menu to check for updates and install the latest version if needed.
    Reboot your computer and rest your iphone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the buttons and let the device restart. No data will be lost doing this. It's like rebooting a computer.

  • Headphones not working after backup restore on new iPhone 6

    My new iPhone seemed to work perfectly until i decided to to restore from the last back up copy of my iPhone 4S.  After the restore all the apps, data, and contacts were working fine, however the iphone headphone jack was not transmitting sound.  I tried several different headphones, and AUX cables without result.
    I decided to erase all data, and set up the phone as a "new iphone".  When this was done the headphone jack worked properly, however the data, apps, and contacts not available. 
    It seems to me the problem is with my back up file, however I have no idea what to do.  How do I keep my contacts, pictures, apps, notes, etc., and have the headphones work with my new iphone?
    Thanks for any help you may provide.

    If this is your iCloud email account, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Mail off, then turn it on again.
    If it's a different email account, delete the account and recreate it again.

  • IOS 8.1 Does Not Download All iCloud Mail/ Keeps Cache?

    Hello,
    I have setup and enabled an iCloud e-mail account on all of my devices and was successfully able to use the Mail app in Mac OS X Yosemite to copy mail from my Yahoo! inbox to my iCloud inbox.  All e-mail copied from Yahoo! Mail appears in the OS X Yosemite Mail app as well as in the iCloud.com site, however, my iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5 both running iOS 8.1 does not download all of the mail from iCloud.  I have tried the following on both iOS 8.1 devices with no success.
    - Disable iCloud mail and re-enable
    - Sign completely out of iCloud and sign in again, then reconfigure all iCloud services including mail
    The result of both steps is that the incomplete list of e-mail in the iCloud inbox just reappears in the Mail app instead of downloading from iCloud again.  It looks like the incomplete list of e-mail is stored on the iOS device and signing out of or disabling iCloud mail just hides it; re-enabling or signing in merely shows it again.  This appears to work differently than my Yahoo! Mail configuration where if I sign out of or delete the Yahoo! account and reconfigure, iOS downloads a fresh copy of all e-mail in the inbox and all other folders.  Here are my two questions:
    - How do I get my iPhone and iPad Air 2 to download ALL e-mail from my iCloud mail account?
    - Are my suspicions true? Does iOS actually store a cached copy of iCloud mail on the device when the service is disabled and just "redisplays" it when re-enabled?
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem. My iCloud it's a mess since the iOS 8.1 update.
    Probably your iCloud isn't working too.
