Moving from kindle app to iBook

I have purchased many books using the kindle app on the ipad.  Is it possible to move the books that I have purchased through the kindle app to iBook?  If so how do you do it?  If not, why not, because I have purchased the books and it should make no difference what app I use.

You can't. Most ebooks have digital rights management on them which tie them to the store's own ereaders and apps, so ebooks from Apple can only be read in the iBooks app and ebooks from Amazon on Kindle ereaders and apps.

  • Moving books from kindle app to ibook app - possible?

    I've done some research and havent been able to find a way to do this so far but i'd love to be able to have all my books in one place and i prefer the design of the ibooks app. Is it possible to somehow move books from the kindle app to ibooks app?

    No, Apple never made such a promise. Amazon, when they released the Kindle, said that most New York Times bestsellers would be $9.99 for the device.

  • Moving from PowerBook G4 to iBook G4

    I am moving from a PowerBook G4 running OS10.3.9 to an iBook G4 running OS10.5.6. I have transferred files and apps using a Firewire connector by rebooting and holding down "t" on the PowerBook and then dragging and dropping the desired files to the iBook. I had hoped that by moving my browser (Firefox), Mail, and Address Book apps from the PowerBook to the iBook and opening them on the iBook that the bookmarks, addresses, etc. would come with them. This has not been the case, and I've gotten an error msg saying that this version of Mail will not run on the OS10.5.6. Any suggestions on how I might accomplish transferring the addresses and bookmarks? Thx.

    Thank you. I tried that, but the Firefox bookmarks did not transfer; neither did the playlist from iTunes. The solution was to go into each app and export the bookmarks and the playlist. Everything else worked as it should.

  • I am not able to get ebooks from Kindle app on ipad to transfer to i-tunes, even after choosing "transfer purchases to itunes". Any help out there?

    I can't get my ebooks from my ipad (in the Kindle app) to download into itunes. My ipad has been synced and I have tried to"transfer purchases from ipad" without success. Any suggestions?

    You can't transfer Kindle books to iTunes. Your Kindle books are stored in your Kindle account on amazon.com. You can download them to authorized devices from there and Amazon stores them there for you.

  • New ipad 3 locked when switching from kindle app to safari

    I was very disapointed today when my brand new ipad 3 locked up today.  I had just finised downloading a kindle book from amazon and then went to the kindle app to read the book.  After a few minutes of reading I decided to look around on amazon.com again. So I pressed the home button and the safari web browser came up, and the ipad was locked up at that point.  It would not respond to the home button or the power switch. (until I pressed and held the power switch down for several seconds).
    What is the best way for me to report this to Apple ?
    Any one else have this sort of thing happen?

    Then it seems to me as if this is a problem in the ios, or the kindle app, or both.
    I find it hard to belive that it would be due to a 'memory leak' as I did not have the ipad running for long when this happened.  It's not like I was constantly switching back and forth from app to app. 

  • Exporting notes from Kindle app?

    Is it possible to export user-added notes from the Kindle app to another file or device?

    What I had to do was:
    - Install the evernote app (desktop and BB version)
    - Create a new account
    - Login
    - Create a new file in the Evernote Remember folder
    - Copy and paste the contents from the old entry into the Evernote entry
    - Sync
    I had to do this for every Remember entry that I wanted to keep, which was a pain, because this app was what I was using while taking notes during conferences and classes.  In fact, the information was critical, and I am agitated that there isn't a easier way to export/backup your Remember entries.

  • IBooks 1.5 looses file name when PDF moved from other apps in iOS 5.0.1 on iPad!

    Opening a titled email PDF attachment in iBooks results in untitled document within ibook. The document transfers from email to good reader or other PDF reader applications without issue. It is an iBooks issue. This started in version 1.5. How can I load a previous version of iBooks?
    Looking at the iTunes books tab the same document has a numerical value as the title.
    The same thing happens if you open a titled PDF document in good reader and use the open with iBook button.
    Anytime a document is sent to iBooks on the iPad, the title becomes blank in iBooks, but the title in iTunes is a 128 bit number.
    How do you report such an issue to apple iBook team?

    I am having a similar problem, the pdf "book" has one name on itunes on my mac, but on my ipad (IOS 5.0.1 build 9A405) the names are different. Plus pdf "books" keep disappearing. If I go into itunes on the Mac and make any change in the "get info" such as comment etc and resync the pdf shows up again.
    Several days later the file again disappears from the ipad (no I am NOT deleting them and I have plenty of free memory on the ipad) and I have make yet another small change.
    I did not encounter this behaviour in previous version of ibook.

  • Moving from single app subscriptions (x 2) to annual Complete plan

    Hi,
    I'm a freelancer on a tight budget and, up until now have only had InDesign and Muse on a month-by-month plan as I did not regularly need Muse and it was more cost effective if I could only subscribe on the months needed. I have just got a new client who now works in the latest version of Illustrator and I need to upgrade to the full Creative Cloud Complete package.
    However, my subscriptions/payments for InDesign and Muse only went out yesterday and the day before. I have been told on the Adobe chat that there will be no refund or concessionary discount for the first month to prevent me having to pay out £45+ TWICE in one month. (As most freelancers will know, budgets are very tight lately!)
    Is there any way around this? I want to sign up for the Complete package in order to do the work for my client, but currently don't have enough in my account to pay the first month's subscription as payment for my single-app subscriptions have only just gone out.
    I would be grateful if someone from Adobe could look into this for me to see if anything can be done please?
    Many thanks.

  • HT4059 When I have a PDF that I want to open and save into iBooks - it will attempt to open it and the shelf flips around to make room for it. But it doesn't save it. I have to end up opening it in Adobe or Kindle app to view & save it.

  • I need a read (Speak) app for iBooks, Subscriptions, Kindle and other book based information and web or instruction based books and articles.

    I have spent 3-4 months downloading, buying and searching for an app that would read my books, my magazine subscription based articles and other written information resources. I can NOT find 1 that works and the ones that are dedicated (like Kindle) will not work even on a book I bought from Amazon and chose to save to my iPad kindle app. Their is not even an app I can find for the books and manuals I purchased from my iBook account and the Subscriptions I have their. I can't even find an app that would read passages from my NEBible. Can anyone, anywhere from Earth to the farthest reaches of the Universe, advise me of an app, or apps, that I can Buy, Rent, Lease or anything else an app, or whatever, that would read my books etc. to me? This is very important to me as being disabled and having adjustments to make to get info into me is a bit harder than it used to be. I would really appreciate any and all help I can get.
    Thanks in advance - I know their has to be other people that would really appreciate and use any source for reading to help in everyday life.

  • Moving books from nook app to computer in iTunes

    Good Afternoon - I have the nook app (as well as the Kindle app) on my ipad air and would like to be able to save the books to my hard drive for backup since Barnes and Noble decided disable the ability to download each book from you account.
    In iTunes I can click on the app but it doesn't show any books even though I have downloaded them to my ipad.
    Is it possible to have to books display in itunes and save them?
    Thanks.

  • I have the kindle app on my iPad.  I downloaded a kindle version of a songbook. I would like to print out a few pages of the music.  I cannot download the file to my computer and cannot print from the iPad as the page format does not allow it.

    How can I print out a few pages of a kindle ebook (music) from my iPad.
    How can I download this book to my iMac from the iPad.  It is NOT in my e books library, but I can only access it from my kindle app.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    One work around is, if the Kindle app allows, make a screen cap of the page and print that.
    Hold down the sleep and home keys and relase them together....kinda like you'd press the shutter of a camera, a joint quick down and up
    You'll see a white flash and hear a shutter sound. Then look in your photos app and you'll see the images. You can print them just like you'd print a photo.
