Ibooks notes deleted

Hello everybody,
iBooks question here. I've found that when highlighting a note in iBooks, if you drag up and to the right - AND drag off of the screen (which I find myself doing), iBooks highlights to the very beginning of the book and deletes ALL of your notes. Is there a fix for this? Below is the message I submitted to Apple.
"Hi, I've very frustratingly discovered that the highlight and notes feature in iBooks is a totally useless piece of ****. I have recently begun buying books within iBooks mostly because of this feature, which I would (if it worked correctly) describe as a "killer" feature. It's very engaging to read a book, easily highlight something and then write a note about it. I love it. Unfortunately though, here is what I'm experiencing:
If you highlight and drag UP and to the right, AND drag off of the screen (which naturally happens), every single goddam word from the touch point all the way to beginning of the book is highlighted. And, all previous notes are gone (boxes to indicate a note still show up but tapping them only reveals your latest note).
I can't believe you could release this."

An iTunes account is used for purchasing.
Every time I sync contacts get screwd up or notes get deleted or iBooks or notes get copied from one phone to the other. I've tried many settings trying to stop this. I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
What are the right settings (or is the correct way) to sync 2 iPhones without copying or deleteing info from one or the other?
Nothing gets copied from one iPhone to the other.
Everything gets copied from iTunes/computer to iPhone.
Select the iPhone iTunes, click the tabs across top and select what you want to sync.
I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
Then you are not going to be able to always sync different data.
Notes are notes. It's sync them or not.
Calendars and contacts you can select specific groups and calendars though I would recommend using iCloud (not iTunes) to sync this.

  • HT1926 I am trying to delete an old version of itunes in my ibook G4 so I can install the newest version and can not delete the old version because it says I don't have enough privileges, help?

    iTunes is not installing because its incompatible with your OS. When installing the correct version the new version will update the older version, there is no need to uninstall first.
    The last version of  iTunes compatible with OSX 10.4 is iTunes 9.2.1
    You can down load iTunes 9.2.1 here:

  • Files will not delete

    I have iBook G4 running OS 10.4.11 and I have some files from my cache that will not delete. I have tried using OnyX, secure empty of trash, and option empty trash but nothing works. The files say they are in use. How do I dump these files? Is there software that I should use (besides OnyX)? Or could this be leading to a larger issue? Please help.

    It wouldn't hurt to run Disk Utility and verify your drive and check permissions first, just in case there is something unhappy with your computer.
    Here's some links to possible suggestions:

  • 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.

  • When I sync my iPod to my MacBook through iTunes new events do not show up and old events are not deleted. I am using Snow Leopard  and not iSync.

    I am using Snow Leopard on a MacBook. I have an iPod touch 3G. I do not use iSync it Mobile Me. When I sync my iPod through iTunes new events on my iPod do not show up on my Mac and old events do not delete. I have read help instructions that include deleting the data on the iPod. The iPod has the correct data and the Mac does not so I have not followed those instructions. I need help as the only reason I bought the Mac was to be able to sync, back up, view and print my calendar. Currently it is useless. If only Apple could have learned from the elegance of the Palm software.

  • Voice memos do not delete (1 hr of recordings)!

    Where I find these "undeleted" voice memos.  When I connect iPhone, itunes opens and on the top right I click iPhone. There are 10 tabs in total (Summary - Info - Apps - Tones - Music - Movies - TV Shows - Books - Photos - On This iPhone). I click On This iPhone.  On the far left side, it lists from top to bottom Music - Movies - Tones - All of my playlists.  The last one lists Voice Memo.  I click on Voice Memo.  I find 10 messages from June and July 2012, which I have deleted off of my iphone AND itunes.  I want to delete these 10 voice memos.  They are NOT on iPhone or iTunes.  I tried searching through computer, but nothing is found. 
    So why not delete them now? I physically can't.  I right click on the voice memo and there is no option to Copy, Paste, DELETE file.  It only gives the option of playing the music.  It is easier to see what I am saying so I am attaching a snapshot.  Notice that the voice memos are on my iphone, but not in itunes.  I looked all over itunes and there is not one voice memo.  Also, under the Music tab, include voice memos is not checked.

    try this one.

  • On iPhone 5s, I cannot see more than 11 messages.  I have NOT deleted older ones and need to view them.  How?  Scrolling in the list of 11 does not help.

    You need the version of iPhoto that you wan tot use installed and then follow the IPLM directions

    Downgrading a library to an earlier version of iPhoto
    If you have a library from a newer version of iPhoto that you simply want "downgrade" to an older version of iPhoto, the easiest way to do that is with the "Rebuild Library" command. You will want to be running iPhoto Library Manager on the machine that has the older version of iPhoto you want to convert the library to. This will create a new library and import the entire contents of the original library into the new one using the older version of iPhoto. As with any rebuild, there are some items that will not be included (most notably, hidden photos, books, calendars, and slideshows), but if you have none of these items or don't mind losing them in the downgrading process, then this is a decent option for converting a library to an older version.

  • IMAP option to not delete from server OR recommend alternate mail app?

    Using POP in Windows computer and IMAP on iphone.
    In the iphone, POP has the opton to "delete from server: never"
    There seems no way to accomplish this in the stock mail app when using IMAP ?
    Using POP on the iphone is not an option due to the longstanding issue of the Apple mail apps not sending a  proper termination signal back. The mailbox remains locked until the server times it out for inactivity and cleans up the stale lock after 10 minutes. The result is "wrong password" on the computer if it then tries to retrieve during that period. It's a feature of POP by design to use a lock to prevent corruption caused by simultaneous access to the mailbox. BUT, BB,Android,Windows all handle this correctly so that their POP transaction (and the mailbox lock) only lasts seconds! Only ever see this persistent lock with Apple mail clients
    The user likes to keep his phone inbox clean, he will delete messages as he deals with them as well as messages he is postponing to deal with on computer later.
    Moving messages to a 'later' folder won't help, as that 'later' folder will not be available thru POP (for the computer)
    They also don't want to use IMAP on the computer because they don't want their communications stored on the server any longer than necessary.
    Can anyone recommend:
    - Windows IMAP client which downloads all and keeps a local copy of inbox which does not synch with server inbox.
    - Alternate mail app for iphone which allows "delete from device only // never delete from server "

    That's not how IMAP works. If you want to keep the inbox clean, but not delete the messages, create folders and move the messages into them for later review.

  • TS4153 few files and folder are not deleting from trash folder

    i am trying to delete all files and folders from the trash folder by clicking  empty securely, but its not deleteing the files anf folder. please suggest how to clean the trash folder by deleteing all the deleted files and folder.

    Securely deleting items in Trash writes Zeros over the data so that it is completely eradicated.
    This will take quit a long time depending on how much data you have in Trash.
    Unless there is data that needs to be rendered unrecoverable in the Trash, you could choose to just delete the files and folders with out the secure option.
    Once you have Emptied the Trash unsecurely you can always use disk utility to Securely Erase Free Space on the Drive.
