Ios 7 iPad - iBook dictionary

Since upgrading to ios7  the dictionary feature integrated into ibooks does not work

When you highlight it, select define and then there should be a manage button. Select manage and then from there you can download your choice dicitonary
Hope this helps

    The iBooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?

    I went to the Audio store to see about getting a surround sound and the salesperson asked me why I wasn't using AirPlay, he said it was better than the Bluetooth, better quality. So I do have AirPlay on my Sony and I installed the app on my iPhone 5 but they can't find eachother.......when I try looking for my iPhone on my receiver it does not show it. The Sony display works through my TV, the set up screen is there but it says no devices found. Like I said, the Bluetooth finds the iPhone and works ok, but the AirPlay does not.....looking at the manuel it says that the AirPlay will recognize my device (iPhone 5) but it does not..........

  • How can I adjust text size in ibooks dictionary?

    How can I adjust text size in ibooks dictionary?

    Hello Eoradec2012,
    It sounds like you are using the Define function in iBooks and you are wanting to increase the size of the font on the page showing the definition. The size of that text can be controlled in the Text Size section:
    To adjust the font size, follow these steps:
    Go to Settings > General > Text Size.
    Drag the slider to the preferred size. The text on the screen will adjust as you move the slider.

  • IBooks aren't loading properly after installing iOS 7, iBooks aren't loading properly after installing iOS 7

    After installing iOS 7, iBooks doesn't work well.
    I have to log into my iTunes account before I can read the book that I've already downloaded and started reading.
    I also have problems logging in to iTunes and often have to do a complete shutdown and restart before I can log in.
    It's very frustrating and if I don't have connectivity, I can't read any books!
    How do I get this fixed?

    Hi Dee12124,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I am going to get you to do a soft reset that, I will hope fix some of your issues.
    To do this:
    1. Press and hold the Home button (big circle below the screen) and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart. This will take anywhere from 10-20 seconds.
    3. When you see the Apple Logo, you can let go of the buttons.
    If this still doesn't fix your device, what we could do is try resetting the whole device, wiping it. If this is the case, get back to me and I will pose the steps below. I would recommend that you do this AFTER the device is backedup however.
    Before you restore your device
    Make sure you’re using the latest version of iTunes.
    Use iTunes to back up your device. Transfer and sync any additional content to your computer.
    Turn off Find My iPhone in Settings > iCloud on your device to disable Activation Lock.
    Restore your iOS device
    Connect your iOS device to your computer using the cable that came with it.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes. In the Summary panel, click Restore.
    Click Restore again to confirm that you want to restore your device to factory settings and delete all data and content. iTunes will download the iOS software file and restore your iOS device.
    After your iOS device is restored to factory settings, it will restart. Once it does, you’ll see the "Slide to set up” welcome screen. Follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. You can set up your device as new or using a previous backup. If your iOS device has cellular service, it will activate after you restore.

  • Ibooks dictionary

    Don't know why but the dictionary in my iBooks won't download. Used to work perfectly with the last operating system. Help!

    I downloaded ibooks and has no dictionary..how do I download it?
    You should not have to download anything to have the built-in dictionary.  Are you saying that you have a book you bought from the ibookstore but you cannot look up a word?  This link shows how to do it

    If you are currently running iOS 5.01, you can update to iOS 5.1 over wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • IPad iBooks and ACS ePub

    Is the iPad/iBooks able to handle ACS4 DRM?

    Apple releases iBooks 1.1 update for iPhone, iPad
    After rolling out the iOS 4 update on Monday, Apple followed up with one of the things it had touted as a key feature of the new OS. The company’s e-book reading app, iBooks, has been updated to run on the iPhone and iPod touch.
    Released as a 1.1 update, iBooks is now a universal app for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad; it debuted on the latter device back in April. This latest version brings a number of new features to the reading experience, including bookmarks, the ability to highlight passages, and note-taking capabilities. All of these annotations can stay in sync across your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, too.
    iBooks 1.1 also lets you choose between a sepia or white page background, and Georgia is available as a new font. You can choose between left or fully justified text layouts; you also have the ability to increase the font size even larger than before.
    Just like it did with the iPad, Apple has made Winnie the Pooh available as a free download to iPhone users who install iBooks.
    iBooks requires iPhone OS 3.2 or greater, and it is available now for free in the App Store.

  • I am member of creative cloud, so how to install Photoshop touch on iOS iPad 4 & not pay $9.99?

    I am a new member of the creative cloud and I have had no issues installing the creative cloud applications on my desktop (mac and PC), however my question regards installing the Photoshop touch app on the iOS iPad 4 device without having to pony up the $9.99 iTunes app fee.
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-photoshop-touch/id495716481?ls=1&mt=8
    The above URL is the path that the Adobe website provides to download the app, and I can successfully access via iOS iPad 4. However it appears that I need to purchase the app for $9.99. It is not clear how I can use my yearly creative cloud membership to avoid paying the app fee.
    Please advise if I am not looking in the correct place, or if I need to login via my Adobe ID to bypass this iTunes cost.
    I could not locate an installation guideline on the Adobe website, so please advise.
    Ken R. of New Jersey.

    Yup, clear now.
    I do like Adobe apps, but the price tends to be on the high side. I am a bit disapointed that the touch are not available via the cloud subscription, so I will stick with the desktop versions instead as they are more robust anyway.
    I see that Adobe has removed this statement under the plans, when the link is clicked, so I am certain I will not be the only person to be confused regarding what is included.
    Thanks for the follow-up, this was very helpful.

  • How do I get iTunes to sync working PDF files to iPad (iBooks)?

    iTunes is synching PDFs into its books section (I can confirm the latest file times) but not passing the updated PDF to iPad iBooks during syncs (the file is selected for sync).  How do I get iTunes to sync the latest PDF to iPad without manually deselecting and then reselecting to force a sync?

    The problem here is that iTunes wants to make sure that the songs that were purchased are sent to the same device that purchased them.  In this case, you would need to authorize your computer first.   This is as easy as opening iTunes, find "store" in the upper status bar, and select Authorize This Computer.   A dialogue will pop up asking for your iTunes ID and your password.  Enter the ID you purchased the songs with.  Afterwords, you should be able to sync the songs.

  • How can i send emailed PDF's directly to my iPad iBooks rather than have them sitting in my inbox unorganized...

    I had hoped that my PDF's in my iPhone iBooks would automatically also go to my iPad iBooks without the need for syncing. Is there some setting to make that happen?
    If that is not an option, how can I send my emailed PDF's directly to my iPad iBooks; I no longer want them sitting in my email folder since there is no way to organize the content of the email folders and I am looking for a way to organize this information that I need to be able to quickly retrieve.

    Thank you for your rapid reply! Yes, I was able to move them from my email to iBooks on my iPhone in this way, but the same method did not work for the iPad . I was really hoping for some super simple solution... thanks for your comment though
