IBooks wont show my ebooks!

Hi.
For some reason after syncing my ebooks to my ipod touch 2g running ios4, they wont show up in the ibooks app. I have them all checked off to enable syncing and all the books checked off but, they just wont show up! Help?

I could not load the correct iBook app direct to my iPod touch 2gen. But using iTunes on my PC, I was directed to the correct iBook app from Apple. After installing it direct showed the already loaded pdf files as books. It is great to see how this oldie can be used to read books. I do have OS4.1

Ibooks wont show my pdf files!!

Hello, I am using the latest itunes on Windows 7 and I have an iPad 2 with iOs7... Ive been trying manually add my pdf library to the iBooks app on my device trough iTunes, process that in the past was quite easy. The thing is that I can still do this, but this time the books would be on my device (or at least that is what see when I explore the content of my iPad through iTunes) but when i open the iBooks app: NOTHING!... it just doesnt show my pdf files even though I know they are there, Ive tried deleting them and adding them again, Ive also had the problem of iTunes freezing completely "syncing genius data - waiitng for items to copy"... does anyone know if these two issues are related? what can i do? is there a way to look for corrupyed files or something like that on ipad?... PLEASE HELP, I AM GOING NUTS!

I had the exact same problem. I bought some PDF ebooks and they showed on the iBooks Mac app but not on my iPad or iPhone. I looked in iTunes and I have select the books to sync on my iPad due to my iPad being filled up with tons of stuff. Anyway the newer PDF ebooks were not there. I tried stopping starting sync, sync over USB and various combinations of starting and stopping itunes and iBooks.
What finally worked is I removed the PDF ebooks from iBooks, renamed the PDF files and ensured I had the .pdf extension, readded to iBooks and then they appeared in iTunes for my iPad to select and then sync. Hope that works for you as well. I got this idea as someone mentioned a naming hint that was more related to the extension but that didn't work but when I deleted, changed the entire name and then readded to iBooks all good

HT1766 If I fully backup my iPad using iTunes, does it backup ebooks in iBooks that are not purchased via iTunes or will restoring from that backup only showed purchased ebooks in iBooks?

Purchased content MAY be available for redownload - Music for sure. I think books are NOT available for redownload (not sure).
Best practice is to keep the content on a desktop computer to be able to resync when necessary (or use a cloud service like Drop Box).

Iphone wont show my ibooks

my ibooks wont sync on my iphone 4s but they will on my ipad. is there a setting or something i need to change?

Are you signed in on the phone with the same Apple ID as on the computer? When you say it won't show, you mean there is nothing in your music library on the phone?

Ibook wont return from "asleep"

we were using my ibook g4 to watch a movie, closed it, and when we opened it the next day it would not wake up. i've tried holding down the power button, as well as pressing other keys and using the mouse. no matter what i do, the little breathing light thingy keeps going, and my poor little ibook keeps snoozing
i don't know if this is related: it is plugged in but the light for the adapter wont show.
thanks,

The movie was so boring it put your iBook into a COMA!
Unplug your iBook and remove the battery for 30 seconds.
Let us know.

Can you help please?

Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

My phone sometimes wont show voice mail,sometimes wont ring just shows missed calls,and some text messages wont show received till next day. Can anyone help?

Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try reseating or replacing the SIM card.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
Has any of the above been tried?

Ripped CDs wont show up in iTunes library

I've recently got an iPod touch 5th generation, mainly because my MP3 player doesn't have enough space for my music. I've tried looking on the internet but nothing has really helped my situation.
As I found out, you can't sync the iPod with Windows Media Player, which is where all of my music is stored. I found out that you had to download iTunes and then sync all of the songs from there to my iPod. Most of my songs showed up in my iTunes library after installing it (ones that had been converted to MP3 files on the internet for personal use for free via online websites).
When I ripped some CDs to WMP on my computer, I was quite excited that I could have all of my favourite music on my iPod. All of the music that I want on my iPod is in one playlist together, so I thought I could just transfer them to iTunes and then sync them.
After it had finished syncing to my iPod, I noticed that my ripped CD albums had not showed up in my iTunes library and had therefore not been synced to my iPod.
I would really like for these to be put onto my iPod, for that is the whole reason of getting it, not just for the social media.
I have about 4 CDs which I've ripped to WMP that I want on my iPod, but I cannot figure out any way of getting them onto it. They wont show up in my iTunes library but I can't understand why and I've searched the internet for solutions and nothing has helped me.
Does anyone have any ways of helping me add my ripped CDs onto my iPod? I don't want to have to waste money on having to buy them all again from the iTunes store when I already have them in real life.

From iTunes Help:
If you have audio or video files on your computer, you can import them into iTunes so they appear in your iTunes library.
To add media from MusicMatch Jukebox or Audible Manager to your iPod, iPhone, or iPad, you need to first import it into iTunes.
Add items from your computer to your iTunes library
Do either of the following:
Drag a file or folder from the desktop to the iTunes window.If you add a folder, all the files it contains are added to your library.
In iTunes, choose File > Add to Library, locate a file or folder, and click Open.
By default, adding items to your iTunes library places a pointer to each file in the iTunes folder; the original file remains in the current location. For information about copying files to the iTunes folder instead of creating pointers to them, see Change where your iTunes files are stored. If the file is an unprotected WMA file and you have Windows Media Player Series 9 or later installed, iTunes makes a copy of the file and adds it to your iTunes library. The original WMA file remains unchanged. You can’t add protected WMA files or protected WMV files to iTunes.

You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not seem to be related to. Is your question concerning iTunes Match or syncing with iTunes via USB?

Installed apps wont show all applications on E7-00

I'm not really sure what happened in what order, but in the morning I tried installing Opera Mobile to phone memory and yesterday evening I tryed a few apps from the app store, not sure if this is important. For some reason the new opera mobile didn't show up in apps (i had old 10.1 installed on mass memory), tried to reinstall in mass memory but that failed. When I went to take a look in installed apps I only saw about 1/3 or 1/4th of the apps installed on my phone.
Restarting the phone gives the same end result, it still wont show my full app list.
EDIT: I just figured the problem out. I changed my phone language to english and the apps showed up again. My native language is Estonian, but at some points it's hard to understand the translations and I switched to English. I installed all my apps under english and just turned back to estonian yesterday.
btw the same issue is with the camera. I have 2 folders - Camera and Kaamera, one is used when my phone is in english setting, other one is for estonian so pictures are mixed up between the two.

It sounds like you have apps from two different accounts on your iPod/computer. You have to sign into your itunes account to transfer the apps. You also have to authorize the computer to use the account. YOu can also download apps at no addition cost. See:

You created a new AppleID?
Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

Ipod touch wont show up in usb or itunes help pages just bring me in circles. how can i get it to show up. I use windows xp at home and tried everything then tried a relatives computer using windows 7 and still nothing. this is an older ipod touch

the help pagers just bring me around in circles. the ipod doesn't show up in system devices under the busses. i've tried just about everything. Im using windows xp at home and though maybe it was because of that. so went to a relatives and used a brand new lap top avus with windows 7 and it wont show up here either. When i got the ipod a few days ago from a third party the only screen i could get to come up was a picture of a usb cord with an arrow pointing towards the itunes logo. I downloaded i tunes and couldn't get it to change. brought it to at&t store today they hooked it up with my usb cord to thier computer and suddenly the menu screens work and i could even get online with it yet when i try to hook it up to one of my computers it doesn't show up anywere where can i go to get this fixed and fixed quick jumping around the apple help pages have put me in a foul mood and im sick of it two days spent trying to get it to show now. im sick of waiting around i need help asap so i can return this **** thing if it turns out it is broken somehow..which i dont think it is.
