Is Ibook author available in the UK?

I've tried to find Ibook author in the Apps Store here in the UK - no joy!

a) Correct. Multi-touch files (.ibooks extension) can only be created in iBooks Author, the Mac application.
b) iBooks Author is a Mac application available for free download through the UK (worldwide actually) Mac App store on your Mac 10.7.2 or better machine. The content that it creates can be saved as .ibooks formatted multi-touch books which can be viewed only on an iPad. It can also export to a flat PDF file without multimedia embedded or plain text for use on other devices. - More information: http://www.apple.com/support/ibooksauthor/publishing/
c) iBooks 2 is an App available for iOS devices from the App store. It is available for free to all iOS users worldwide. The published .ibooks files that play back on the iPad can be sold worldwide. However, there is currently only a "Textbooks" category to place these books into on the US store.

  • Is iBooks author available for the iPad?

    I'd like to use the iBooks author. I have the new iPad (#3) is the iBooks author only available for use on the Mac?
    If it is restricted to the Mac, - I don't have a Mac - is it possible to use one of those programs that translates a Mac program for use on a PC?

    That's actually a bummer!!
    I've seen Pgms that allowed a PC to use Apple Pgms. But that was several years ago. I'm assuming from what you said, those days are gone. Is that right?
    The only Pgm that comes near iBooks Author is InDesign - and that's hundreds of dollars Vs FREE! And InDesign is Overkill with a heavy learning curve.
    The aggregators are actually Go-Betweens that convert for a fee, and then collect a % of the sales, in addition to what Apple takes.
    I'd prefer to use the iBooks Author because it's simple and does nice work. AND the submission is direct to Apple, which avoids the extra aggregator fees and commissions on all future sales.
    There's also an additional 30 to 45 days AFTER Apple's 30 - 60 days till payment is sent. They work with my money AND don't send it till it totals $500.
    Do you have any experience with any of the other Pgms  similar to the iBooks Author?

  • I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit?

    I deleted my ibooks author file but the preview is still available on my ipad, can I get the ibook back into ibooks author to continue to edit? I have not published anything, just previewed on my ipad but the file seems to be deleted from my imac which is what I was using ibooks author on. Any help is welcome!

    It's not a 'process' at all.
    If it was easy/straightforward, people would be turning store versions into iBA versions left/right and all **** would break loose. It's not and that's a good thing, sorry
    Work up from whatever version you have.
    Any work you value should be backed up....period. That backup should be used and tested regularly. Consider this a lesson learned, perhaps. Good luck in the future.

  • How do I paste a table from Numbers or Excel into Ibook Author exactly as the original?

    I am new to iMac and Ibook Author.
    I am writing a statistical paper in Ibooks Author.
    I have Chapter heading, now section heading and body.  I want to paste a table from numbers or excel into my iBook as this has the results of my analysis.
    As part of my analysis, I want to copy a 5 column table with 633 rows, which is essentially my table of data.  I have the table in numbers and excel.
    When I copy the table in numbers or excel, followed by pasting (CmD V) into iBooks, I get the first 20 rows in a table format and the remainder of the table is missing.  The table appears to end at the end of the page.
    I can not figure out how to paste the entire data as my table.
    Its holding me back...
    Any ideas?

    Hello Loquitir,
    I am not fully sure if I understand but I gather since there are so many rows only a certain amount fits on a single page.
    How many rows does actually fit on a page in iBooks Author?
    There is a method that would look pretty cool that is used to create a double page spread that would look great but instead of having a double page you could maybe have three or four pages.
    Here is a quick idea that I stuck together, additionally when you are copying and pasting form Numbers to iBooks Author just select the cells that you want.
    Copy and paste within iBooks Author and then go back and get the next row of the table that you want.
    I hope I am clear in what I am describing.
    Regards,
    Nigel

    While you can use various ICC recipes to craft a workflow and images that target iBA books, iOS does not support ICC profiles.

  • Finding iBooks Author books in the store?

    I'm more than a little surprised that Apple hasn't made it easier to "search by iBooks Author books" in the store.
    Does anyone have any sources that are showcasing iBooks Author books?
    Thanks!
    Jake

    Genius Apple move. Reminds me of the way they rolled out podcasting so many years back: "Here's some tools and access to the store. The rest is up to you, including how our standards actually work. Good luck."
    Ugh.
    Thanks for the answer, KT. I suspected this was the answer. Is there any blog/forum/web page perhaps that collects up such a list?

  • I put my ibook author file in the trash and then accidentally emptied my trash. Is there a way to recover the file? Does iBooks Author have a backup?

    I put my ibook author file in the trash and then accidentally emptied my trash. Is there a way to recover the file? Does iBooks Author have a backup?

    if you use time machine, you should be able to get it back that way. Although IBA saves changes on an ongoing basis, it doesn't create a back up or supplemental copy elsewhere on your drive.

  • How do I download a campaign font for use in iBooks Authoring rather than the standard fonts available?

    Is it possible to use a campaign font when authoring an iBook rather than the standard font menu?

    The font menu in the toolbar includes supported iOS fonts on the iPad. You are obligated to work with those fonts only.
    While apps have a way to add additional fonts, iBooks Author does not provide support otherwise, sorry.
    As an alternative, you can use any font you like and generate an image instead.

  • Is IBooks Author available in Australia?

  • Is 256gb enough to use xcode, Microsoft office student, iBooks author and download the iOS sdk

    Please help as I'm not sure whether to get a macbook pro or air. I prefer the look of the air but I'm not sure if 256gb flash storage is enough for what I want to do. I would always surf the Internet and use Microsoft word, excel and PowerPoint but I would also like to try Xcode and iOS sdk. Thank you. However Im not willing to buy the air with 512 gb so if the 256 gb isn't enough then I'll go for the pro.

    Welcome to Apple Communities
    256 GB are a lot for do only what you need. It's perfect

  • Re iBooks author, assets of the book

    I need to make changes in the assets of the book, not the book itself. Will I have to re-upload the book to iTunes Store?

    Producer should load just the changed data. That's the way it used to happen before 2.8 and I haven't had to try this since the update.
    hope this helps...

  • HT202501 I can't seem to get iBook author to recognize the \mathcal command to get a calligraphy style variable. Anyone else having this issue?

    This is the alphabet when using the \mathcal command. Apple, please fix B, E, F, H, I, L, M, and R.  Thank you.

    Yes I checked it.  As far as I can see I did everything Apple said to do.  I took some screen shot so you can see how the screens are connected and what and where the code is, and what it does when I drag the cancel and done bar buttons to the exit

  • Can I sell books made with iBooks Author in the UK iTunes store?

    Hi all,
    I'm a UK-based musician who publishes a range of tuition books on playing the bass guitar. I've spent the last few months devleoping one of these books in iBooks Author, and the end results are really impressive. I submitted the book to the iTunes store last week (after setting up a US Tax ID etc) and it was approved in the US store yesterday. Here's a link to the relevant page:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/bass-players-guide-to-scales/id534940432?mt=13
    My question is, is there any way I can make this book available to customers in all countries? I filled in all the info/pricing etc for all countries when I uploaded the book, but it's only approved for sale in the United States so far. Is there just a delay in the other stores being approved or can it only be the US for textbooks? I notice that the UK iTunes store does not have a textbooks category. Am getting worried now that I shouldn't have put it in the Textbooks category, although I don't remember being able to choose another option.
    Any help greatly appreciated!
    Cheers
    Stuart

    It is possible to publish books created in iBooks Author outside of the US. They will just not be able to appear in the Textbooks category as it's currently a US only category.
    I can see in the UK store that you've got two editions of the same book for sale. One has screen grabs and is clearly filled with iBA features for £9.99 and the other at £6.49 with no preview images which I assume is in standard ePub format - both are in the Arts & Entertainment -> Music category.
    Congrats!
