IBooks will not sync PDF collections with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but not the content?

My IBooks will not sync PDF content with my IPhone. It syncs the collection title but no content. Both devices are set to sync collections? Any ideas how to fix this?

The 'sync collections' setting does not copy books or PDFs between devices - all it does is if you have the book on both devices and you move it into a collection on one of them, then it will be put into the same collection on the other device.
You will need to sync each PDF that you want on your phone. If you don't currently have them on your computer then connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks), and if using a Mac with Mavericks on it do File > Move Books From iTunes in the iBooks app on it, and you can then sync them to your iPhone.

Hi Email_user_02,
Thanks for the post and welcome to the forum. I am very sorry to hear you have been locked out of your email account.
If I had to speculate as to what has happened I would think that when the home move order was placed your email address was not moved to your new account. If your email is not linked to a broadband account or premium mail then the message you are receiving would be correct. However its clear that this is our fault and I am really sorry about this. This is something that I can sort out.
Can you please get your details off to me in an email? Just click on my username, (SeanD) and you will find the 'Mods contact link' under the 'About me' section of my profile. Once I have your details I will be able to confirm what has happened but more importantly I will ensure that nothing happens with this email address.

IBook will not sleep with clamshell open -

I have been using this iBook for years with no problems until the system updater updated to 10.4.9 on 4/24/07. Ever since then the iBook will not sleep on its own, I have to shut the clamshell or use the sleep command from the Apple menu.
I have tried disabling all sharing (file printer internet).
I have reset the PMU multiple times.
I have tried several different settings in the energy saver panel.
I have used "sudo periodic daily weekly monthly."
I have verified and repaired permissions.
Here is my console log from today:

Looking back several days seems the "lookupd" hangs up quite often and the Sound assertion always fails.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Does this happen when running from the AC adapter or from the battery, or does that not matter?
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
You will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). Repair permissions on it.
Recheck the settings in Energy Saver in System Preferences.
See if a little hard drive maintenance helps.

HT4623 I updated my iPhone 5S to iOS 7.0.2 and iBooks will not load anything from the Store and Safari keeps crashing

I updated my iPhone 5S to iOS 7.0.2 and iBooks will not load anything from the Store- I cannot search or even view my purchases.
Also Safari keeps crashing. I have shut down the phone and restarted it twice and that hasn't helped. Any ideas?

I have some content in my library that I do not want to sync with my ipod touch. The content has previously been synced and I want to remove it without deleting it from my itunes library. Is this possible?

I have some music content in my itunes library that I do not want to sync with my ipod touch. The content has previously been synced and I want to remove it without deleting it from my itunes library. Is this possible?

Hi Pez,
iTunes in the Cloud is not iCloud. Any songs that you have purchased but have not downloaded (or have deleted), go to iTunes in the cloud. The setting I mentioned will show all of your purchases in the various views in the Music app, whether they are on your device or not. If you turn that setting off, you will only see items that are actually on your device.
Glad to hear the second sync worked! But if they all start appearing again, make sure that setting is turned off
Cheers,

Ibook will not boot PLEASE HELP!!!!

Hi,
First the ibook booted then would come up with the kernel error: square box with "you need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the restart button......
I then booted to single user mode and ran fsck -y which eventually came up with the all clear "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK"
I then restarted the system which booted to the blue screen with some quirky graphics towards the top. It will now not boot into single user mode, just black screen or multi-coloured stripy screen. When booting from the CD drive the sceen is just blue or black.
Okay, I have connected the ibook via fire wire to a powerbook, and re-booted the ibook in terminal mode which brings up the fire wire connect symbol on screen.
After a while the system stalls showing part of the symbol and the connection is frozen. I have tried to re-install tiger using the powerbook to initiate as the ibook will not. However, it freezes at 50% of install.
I changed the ram to iliminate a ram failure, however... still the same.
While I was in terminal mode I erased the disk using the disk utility from the PB and then ran the install again... still froze.
This looks more serious than I thought. I'm now thinking that it could be the hard drive or worse. I have tried to use the apple support phone # and it does not seem to work, 1800 275 2273.
I'm having some real bad luck here. Any ideas?

I ran the apple hard ware test disc. The quick test found no errors. The extended test freezes up completely. Now I'm really stumed. The logic board came up with know errors.
When the system froze on the extended test. I falsed a re-boot. However the screen went black so I could not run the test again. It seems like a time thing... the ibook can only run for a short period before it freezes. Then it has to shut down for a while before it can run again

IBook Will Not Automatically Sleep

Lately I have had a problem with my iBook G4 not automatically going to sleep after the specified period of time. Obviously this is a problem when running on battery power! I usually have it set to sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity to save the battery, but it will not go to sleep. I'll come back a few hours later to a dead battery. It does sleep when I shut the lid, and it goes to sleep fine when I select Sleep from the  menu. It will also go to sleep when the battery is low (about 2%). It just will not sleep after the interval that I set.
I have tried the following:
Deleted the powermanagement.plist file then rebooted.
Verified the HD and repaired disk permissions both from disk utility and install disk.
Tried the cmd-shift-option-power reset option after shutting down, still the same...the iBook will not go to sleep on its own.
No software is running, no additional RAM has been installed, and this happens on both battery and AC power. Any thoughts?
iBook G4, 12" 1.33 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Restart and hold down on the "shift" key until you see the spinning gear icon. This will startup the iBook in "safe" mode. Test to see if the iBook sleeps normally now. If it does, then you have some kind of third-party software conflict. If it doesn't, then you might consider resetting the Power Management Unit:

"cmd-shift-option-power" is not the same thing as "control-shift-option-power"...

If you can't open a particular ibook then try deleting it from the bookshelf via the Edit button at the top right of the bookshelf, and (assuming that it's still in your country's store) redownload it via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the app (or if you have a copy of it on your computer's iTunes library sync it back from there).

TS1702 ibooks will not download

My ibooks will not download

The original author isn't clear whether he means the ibooks app or a purchased iBook. I have purchased an iBook from the iBook store, and while I can download it to my mac, I can't download it to my ipad. You suggest syncing between the two, which sounds reasonable, but how do you do this? iBooks doesn't work like iTunes does.

IBook will not start up!

My iBook will not start up all the way. It gets to the gray apple screen and just spins.(3hrs) I tried everything. It will not start up with 10.3 CD or OS9. It will start up with nortons CD but you cant see the Hard Drive. Hardware test CD starts and every thing checks out fine. What to do. I hope its not its final day.

Paul,
Do you have OS X 10.3 installed on it?
Try booting into Safe Mode. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, and repair permissions on it.
See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to helps things out.
If it won't start up in Safe Mode, you can try Single User Mode and fsck, but if Safe Mode won't do it for you, fsck may not, either.
Keep Norton far, far away from any hard drive with OS X installed on it. DiskDoctor is known as DiskDoctor Kevorkian around here. It finds non-existent "errors" and sets about "correcting," them, killing your hard drive in the process.
If none of Apple's own disk repair procedures work (Safe Mode, Disk Utility from the Install disc, or fsck), it may be wise to invest in DiskWarrior. It can often find your hard drive and repair it when Apple's own utilities cannot. DiskWarrior has saved my hard drive more than once.
Good luck.

IBook will not start up past gray screen w/ apple logo

iBook will not start up past gray screen w/ apple logo. So I have zeroed out the hard drive and reinstalled tiger. No change except if I start up holding shift it will boot and welcome comes up then black screen that says you must restart by holding down power key.
Zeroed out the HD again with same results. Also I have a iBook G3 with the same symptoms.

What you are experiencing is a kernel panic.
Try starting up from the Mac OS X Install Disc by inserting the disc and restarting your computer, holding down the C key as the startup chime is ending. Then choose Installer > Open Disk Utility (in Panther) or (in Tiger) click 'Next' at the language screen and choose Utilities > Disk Utility and select the hard drive in the left column. Choose the First Aid tab. Click Repair Disk to test and repair the hard drive.
Once you have repaired the hard drive with the Install disc's Disk Utility, then try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.

My Ibooks will not open samples anymore

my Ibooks will not longer open samples. before it was not a problem. just started recently . when i click on "sample", it says "downloading" but then when that process ends, I am not able to open the sample. I have the latest version of Ibooks. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it, but still have the same problem.

IBook will not start up. Can anyone help please?

My iBook will not boot up anymore. It makes the usual startup sound, then goes to a gray screen with the Apple icon. Does anyone know what is wrong? I have all my homework on there. Most of it is backed up on my flash disk, but I have some other things not on my flash disk. When it did work, the computer would freeze every time I would launch Word to complete a homework assignment. The computer has just been acting goofy lately. Any suggestions on what I should do? Thanks.

I would put in your Mac OS X install disk, restart the iBook and hold down on the "c" key. This should make your computer startup from the install disk. This will open the Mac OS X installer first and may ask you to choose a language. Pick the language you want to use and continue. At the next screen, don't continue to install Mac OS X but choose to open the Disk Utility from the Installer menu. When the Disk Utility is open, select your hard drive on the left-hand side and then choose to "repair disk" from the button on the right-hand side. Is there anything to repair? Is the Disk Utility able to repair it? When you're done, you can simply quit the Disk Utility and then quit the Installer to restart back to your iBook's hard drive.
Hopefully the Disk Utility can repair any trouble it finds. If it can't, you may need to invest in a third party utility like . If it doesn't find anything that needs to be repaired, there may be something else going wrong... Let us know what you find out.

AIR application with Flex 4.5 will not render content. What gives?

OK,
So I've upgraded to Flash Builder 4.5 Premium and I am unable to develop desktop AIR applications with the 4.5 Flex SDK. I start by simply creating a brand new AIR application using the default SDK (Flex 4.5). I set the title property on WindowedApplication and include a simple Label component. The project compiles fine but when I run the application all I see is the adl window in the dock but that's it. If I modify the Main-app.xml file to set the visible attribute to true, I will get a small window but there is no content although the output window shows the application swf being loaded. Checking the release version of the Main-app.xml file shows the correct path location to the swf.
Here is what I've tried so far:
Install/reinstall Flash Builder, 4+ times
Downloaded the trial installation twice
Downloaded the SDK's for 3.6, 4.1 and 4.5.0. I then copied each SDK folder and merged the AIR 2.6 SDK with each copy. So now I have 6 SDK versions; one pristine and the other with the AIR 2.6 SDK merged. I then added each SDK individually and created an AIR desktop application for each. Each and every one works fine with the exception of the two 4.5 SDK's. They will not render content.
I created a simple creation complete handler for the application that declares a simple variable and assigns a value to it. I then put a break point on the assignment and it never gets caught. More evidence that the swf isn't getting loaded.
The computer I'm running on is a Mac Book Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.7. If I create a web project in each of the 6 SDK's, those will work just fine. What the heck is it with Flex 4.5 and the AIR 2.6 SDK on this machine? I have the AIR 2.6 runtime installed as well as a number of AIR applications that work just fine. I also tried my 4.5 test on my windows machine and that worked like a champ.
I am completely out of ideas. Finding information has been difficult because everyone is all about mobile so searching for desktop issues is a losing battle. I realize this is a long email but I'm desperate for help. There must be someone out there that knows more about the low level interaction between Flex 4.5/AIR 2.6 and the OS.

Well, I finally found the issue, a corrupted mm.cfg file in /Library/Application Support/Macromedia. I deleted the file and then adl ran just fine.

IBook will not sleep when lid closed

Hi,
I recently had my Hard Drive replaced, the old one died. It was all covered by AppleCare and the repairs done at a Apple Authorised Outlet. After installing everything again I just found out that my iBook will not sleep when the lid is closed. The screen is still on and bright. Any ideas why? Is this dangerous? Any quick fixes?
Cheers,
Jack

Jack,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You need to give the Apple Authorized Repair center a call back and let them know what's going on. I've seen this before here on the forums, and it was attributed to a sleep magnet not being put back in. It's most likely this. Apparently, putting this magnet back in can be easily overlooked.
