Is over 400 hours (and counting) normal for iTunes to authenticate an iBook?

Is over 400 hours (and counting) normal for iTunes to authenticate an iBook before uploading to iBooks store? Does the size of the document make a difference?
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks

OK, by coincidence this  happened to me just  yesterday as I was updating  a book, I   was doing other things and  noticed after about an  hour  it was still  showing loading lines.
Its locked up somewhwere and  I just closed/ force close if needed.. and started the delivery process again.
This time it  took 20 minutes or so which was what I expected.
If it  happens a second time, try starting the  Publish from within iBA, but  first  check the  xxxxxxx.itmsp number and  check if it issues a new xxxxx.itmsp, if it does.. delete the old one to avoid confusion.

  • Is 15 hours + (still counting) normal for initial setup?

    After setting up itunes and connecting ipod. The itunes updated the ipod then a do not disconnect message on the ipod screen popped up with a circle with an slash through it. This message has been flashing on the ipod for the past 15 hours. Is this normal? Should I disconnect and start again? What do I need to do to finish setup?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    If the process of installing, registering the iPod, and letting iTuens load up is complete, then see the following.
    When connect your iPod to your computer, it is normal for it to say "Do Not Disconnect" (if “enable disk use” is check marked in iTunes, or if you are on “manual” in iTunes). To safely disconnect your iPod, you'll need to first eject your iPod from your computer (just pulling out the cord may clear all the music from your iPod).
    There are a few methods.
    Ejecting your iPod through iTunes
    Ejecting your iPod via iTunes depends on what setting your iPod is on for.
    Connect your iPod. Go into Edit> preferences> iPod. See what setting your iPod is on; "automatic" or "manual".
    Automatic
    If you aren't restoring, or updating your iPod, iTunes should automatically eject your iPod from iTunes. If it doesn't, then right-click the name of your iPod in iTunes, and make sure that the "enable for disk use" is un-checked.
    Manual
    If you need to eject your iPod from iTunes if the setting is "manual", click the little arrow that's next to the name of your iPod in the left source list in iTunes.
    Ejecting your iPod through the "Safely Remove Hardware" program
    Look at the bottom-right corner of your screen, and there's the system tray icons there. If the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon is there, click on it, select your iPod, and click "stop".
    Ejecting your iPod through "My Computer"
    Go to "My Computer".
    Find your iPod's listing there (it's typically "E:" or "F:").
    Right-click it, click on "eject".
    Ejecting your iPod if it isn’t being recognized anywhere
    If your iPod isn’t appearing or being recognized by either of these programs on Windows, then do the following to safely disconnect your iPod:
    Close iPod Updater/iTunes programs.
    Shut down your computer.
    Unplug your iPod.
    For more details on this matter of disconnecting your iPod, see these articles:

    I have a new Mac book pro and am updating to the latest version of OS update.

    Shouldn't. Which update. Provide specifics on how and from where. If this is a new machine, it should already be running 10.8.4, ainxw that shipped one and a half months ago.

  • Iphoto has been importing photos for over an hour and i can't get it to stop. can't stop importing and can't shut down computer.

    iphoto has been importing photos for over n hour and I can't get it to stop.  Can't get out of iphoto and can't shut down computer.

    iPhoto works best when the source (Pictures folder) is on a different disk drive than the iPhoto Library is on.
    And you need to have enough free disk space to work with, the faster the better.
    Also, do not keep your media folders and those in your home folder on the same drive as the system, also another bottleneck.
    Until or unless you have everything on 1400MB/sec SSD PCIe controller, you want
    System boot drive
    Media and data folders and such
    scratch
    backup
    etc
    I put iPhoto on an SSD off an SSD PCIe Sonnet Tempo card
    If you stop- it, you will need to trash the Library it was creating.
    Reading and writing to/from the same hard drive will be slow.
    You don't mention which Mac, or how large you are trying to import etc
    Also the support page and link to the iPhoto Commuinity is off this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto
    Take a look in Activity Monitor. See what the % being used for iPhoto, how many pageouts, how much free space on the various disk drives, and how much RAM do you have installed?

    What dowes the screen say? If it just say disable and gives not time to retry then you have to restore the iPod
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • Trouble converting a PDF to spreadsheet, 30 hours and counting...

    Hi Gordon,
    Please let me know if you are facing this issue with every PPT file or any specific one.
    Could you find Acrobat ribbon in the menu bar? What happens when using this option?
    Also, please refer the KB link and try out troubleshooting PDFMaker problems whose link is given as follows:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-acrobat-pdfmaker-problems-office.html
    In addition, please check if Adobe PDF printer is set as default printer under 'Start> Devices and Printers'
    If yes, then right click on the ppt file icon and choose 'Convert to Adobe PDF' from the context menu.
    Please check and then let me know.

    Perform a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If this doesn't help, connect the phone to the charger and leave it for about 30 minutes and see if it comes on. If not, while it is connected try the reset I described first.

    i clicked the download all button at the end of the list of my library iTunes which i believe is in the iCloud, i have iTunes match also, many downloads were reported as occurring over several hours and then received the warning startup disc is full (activity monitor shows 3.99 of 4 GB used) and then another stating the download had not occurred due to the disc being full. most of the tunes still appear to be in the cloud but the disc is said to be full, spent a good period of time trying to investigate what has happened but failed...I'm not well up on all of this as an old chap so any help would be wonderful.....

    Thanks Michael, what is the best way of backing up, should buy a cheap standalone external hard drive rather than relying on the Time Capsule which is quite sensitive...
    If you read the link I provided you'll get an idea of one way to maintain a backup of your music files, use Time Machine, and not take up as much room on the internal HDD/SSD.

    Your internet connection speed has no effect on Time Machine/Time Capsule backups. Since that is all done locally, over your wireless network you actually do not need an internet connection at all.

    Also I wondered if I could increase the memory on the setup disk by replacing the 4GB card already in the MBP with 16GB cards, if I upgraded would that affect anything I have stored already like my iTunes?
    You're asking about the computer's RAM. Increasing that will not increase the size of the internal storage available to the computer. You'd need to replace the HDD/SSD of the Mac, which, depending on what model you have may or may not be possible (with new models of Macs).
