Itunes for ibook question

hey all im new to apple got a ibook g4 10.4.11 for free and use it to familarize myself comming from windows os and like it very much I have an Iphone 4s and that prompted the change just tring to hook itunes up to this setup and sync it is this doable or am i sol till i comit to mving forward! it will load pitures from phone but thats it !!
thanks in advance any help with this would be great !!!

An older Mac is not the best model to introduce yourself to Macs. Like anything old it will need coddling and patience to use. It will not work fast, you will have problems finding software and accessories for it. It's like buying a 1960s car. Great if you have the patience to work with it and you love hunting for parts and do not want to drive 75 mph on the freeway. Not so great if you want efficient, relatively care-free transportation. It's not so much a maintenance issue with the old computers but simply the world is moving beyond what they are capable of doing.
It also will not work well (if at all) with your iPhone. Read very carefully the system requirements for the iPhone (printed in microscopic medium gray print on the side of a light gray box ). If this is a brand new phone you may possibly absolutely need the newest iTunes version which will not run on the ibook.
Oh, I have a 10 year old computer with 10.4.11, a 32 year old car that does 65 mph maximum and I have to hunt acrosss the country for spare parts, a 103 year old house, and a 18 year old cat. We have an iPhone4s which will not work with our computer but we don't use those features. If that's you, go for it.

Managing PDF's in iTunes for iBooks is difficult.

Managing PDF's in iTunes for iBooks is difficult due to the names of the files I'm working with. The PDF will have a burned-in name, yet I want to rename the files in Windows to make them easier to find (iBooks renames the files ON THE FLY when opening the PDF's from iBooks on the iPad2). I also have several versions of the same PDF (First Edition (c) 2000, Second Edition (c) 2004, Third Edition (c) 2008, Fourth Edition (c) 2012, etc) and want to rename the files as such. Is there a way to leverage iBooks in this scenario to better meet my needs?

I was originally using Stanza in IOS4 and it COMPLETELY met my needs, but it stopped working with the release of IOS5 which forced me to iBooks. I believe that Stanza now works since they patched it. The migration to iBooks consumed a whole day and I'm still VERY unhappy with how things turned out in iBooks. I was hoping for an iBooks solution, so that I wouldn't have to redo everything all over again. Ideally, I would like to get iBooks working, else will look into moving back to Stanza, Goodreader, Adobe Reader or an Android Tablet.

TS1717 itunes for hp question

when i doubleclick itunes to open the program, it tells me that a file, MSVCR80.dll is missing and therefore the program can't open.
how do i fix this (i have an hp)?
(i have tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes and this hasn't helped.)

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Is it possible to read books downloaded for Ibook on my computer?

I am curious, is it possible to read books dowloaded via ITunes for IBooks in my MacBook Pro?
Danny

Yes there is. Not by Apple yet but I have read the downloaded books (into iTunes library) using "caliber".
"calibre is a free and open source e-book library management application developed by users of e-books for users of e-books."
If necessary, you can also convert to another format (eg MOBI) so you can read on your Kindle or whatever...
Cheers!
pd: Read notes on appropiate version for you... you can download at http://calibre-ebook.com/download_osx

Family sharing - works for iTunes and iBooks but not App Store.

I Have family sharing setup with an iPhone 5 & 6 on the system.
i can can see purchased content for both iTunes and iBooks but receive the following message in the App Store: "this iTunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account than ******."
I don't understand how 2 out of the 3 services can be working with the correct account but the App Store thinks it is not on the right account. any ideas?

After digging and reading since I posted this question, I finally found the issue. My Cisco VPN client was set to stateful firewall (always on). When I turned off this setting, all machines worked for iTunes sharing. The Vista box was coincidentally working because the Cisco VPN client 4.6 didn't work on Vista.

I recently purchased a book from itunes on my ipad 2 but when i open the book in ibooks i get (incorrectly formatted or not formatted for ibooks) somebody please help

I am currently deployed over seas.. I recently purchased a book that im pretty stoked about. but when i open it in ibooks i get ( incorrectly formatted or not formatted for ibooks to recognize) the file is an .epub so i dont see how it could be a format issue.. I tried emailing apple but because of the situation they want me to call. I have very limited telecomminications at my location .. somebody please help

The Report a Problem link can also be found in iTunes/Store/View Account/Purchase History.
Before asking for a refund, also try deleting the book and redownloading it.
If you find that the iBookstore is does not meet your needs, you can try one of the others like Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, or Sony.

HT5312 why can't I sign into my account and add a rescue email so I will be able to redo my security questions? I have been unable to buy anything from Itunes because it's asks me for security questions that I don't remember what I put

1. Because if you could, someone who breaks into your account could do it as well.
2. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

I don't have a computer on which to convert a digital booklet in iTunes to a useable form for iBooks. Why won't it download using the cloud like all the other media I purchase on my ipad?

LP content can only be downloaded on a computer's iTunes (or 1st gen Apple TV), you can't download them on an iOS device - and I haven't seen anything that say it will change in iOS 8. If you don't have a computer then at the moment you won't be able to download/view LP content
About LP : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3823
After you buy an album with iTunes LP on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, the album's songs will download directly to the device. The iTunes LP will download to iTunes on your computer when you choose Store > Check for Available Downloads.

Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore. When chose for secret question brth date seems wrong. Can't reach anyone!!!

Hello, I got a new computer with the old harddisk. Can't play my itunes music because not authorised. Apple ID is very old e-mail adress that doesn't exist anymore and I forgot the password (5 years old??). When chose for secret question birth date seems wrong. Tried everything. I need to make a new apple-id but cannot connect the music that I bought under my old name to my new name. Can't reach anyone!!! Automatic FAQ system is of no help. What to do?

That doesn't help me. For itunes it brings me to the express lane which doesn't help because my case is not in it. It's all standard procedure things. I understand those but my situation is different. The combination of a passport forgotten and an non-existing email adress (and birth dates that are not correct or not accepted). What I need is my password emailed to another email adress than the original one because that no longer exists.

Sorry for stupid question. I have just got a download of a piano accompaniment (not from itunes). I have ?downloaded it - where did it go?! I cannot find it anywhere. Thank you so much.

Sorry for stupid question. I have just got a download of a piano accompaniment (not from Itunes). I have played it and think downoaded it but where did it go?! I cannot find it anywhere! Thank you!

Generally it is not possible to download anything from a web site when using an iPhone, so if you were just using Safari, you probably didn't actually download the track but just played it from the web site. If you used some other app, tell us what app and someone may be able to provide further assistance.
Regards.
