My iPad can not be found for preview.

Hi,
I just started to use iBook Author, but I can not find my iPad under device of preview on my Mac Book Air. The iBook on my iPad is updated to iBook 3, my iPad apprears in iTunes (also via Wi-Fi as suggested), but my iPad is still not there under preview.
Thanks for any useful help/tipps!

Is your iPad connected directly to a USB port on your Mac with the Apple cable?
Don't use a USB hub or drive with a port.
If so, and restarting both the computer and iPad doesn't help, use iBA's Share/Export menu to output an .ibooks file, then drag that to iTunes and sync your iPad.

  • Smart Previews issue. LR5 catalog saying "The file could not be found" for entire collection. How do I "sync" or "find" the smart previews?

    I created an LR5 catalog with 1:1 previews and smart previews. I then placed the catalog along with the previews and smart previews files into dropbox.
    Came home to work remotely, opened the catalog from dropbox and I can see the photos in library mode. But once I go to develop, LR is saying "The file could not be found"
    Smart Preview cache file is there right below the lrcat file.
    Anyone know how I can make the catalog find that smart previews cache?

    Thanks for the quick response.
    There are ? next to the folders but that's to be expected because that drive is not connected to my comp.
    And there are exclamation points next to each image.. but again.. drive is not connected. But I've used smart previews before and that was the fix to working without the original raw images available.
    However the smart previews don't seem to be working this time as I cannot edit the images.

  • I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder.  Any ideas?

    I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder.  Any ideas?

    Let's try this first. Hold down the Shift key while you try to launch iTunes. You should eventually see the following dialog:
    Click "Choose library". Browse to inside the following location (depending on what operating system you're running):
    Operating System
    Default location of iTunes library
    Microsoft Windows XP
    \Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Microsoft Windows Vista
    \Users\[your username]\Music\iTunes\
    Microsoft Windows 7
    \Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
    ... and open the iTunes library you find in there.

  • Can someone tell me how to fix this error in 10.4.11 on a G5 Quad Core 2.5GHz Tower...A valid video device could not be found for playback. [-70017]

    Can someone tell me how to fix this error in 10.4.11 on a G5 Quad Core 2.5GHz Tower...A valid video device could not be found for playback. [-70017]

    That's an error reported from DVD Player I believe...
    kDVDErrorMissingGraphicsDevice = -70017, // A valid graphics device is not available.
    There's some conjecture it has to do with HDCP, or Video Card problems, but the only 2 cures/fixes I found were Software related, one was cured by updating the OS, another by replacing the Video kexts.
    I think this error also shows up if trying to use DVD player in Safe Mode, (too much research isn't good! ).
    At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac.

    Can't think of much to try at the moment, but perhaps reapplying the big 10.4.11 combo, Repair Permissions, & reboot would help, not sure.

  • The volume for "Downloads" can not be found

    i keep getting this message when i click downloads in the finder sidebar menu. if i want to see something i downloaded i have to actually find the folder and that takes too long. Is there anyway i can stop this message from coming up (The volume for "Downloads" can not be found) when i click on it from the sidebar?

    That's a very good question. I have a hunch that it might be the plist file com.apple.sidebarlists.plist which you will find in <home>/Library/Preferences.
    The only thing is that I do not know if you can simply move that file to the desktop, close the current Finder window, then open a new Finder window and add the items you need back into the sidebar. Because Finder is running all the time, I would be very wary of doing that just in case it causes drama . Perhaps one of the other Guru users might have a comment on that.
    Alternatively search the discussions for possible clues along those lines.

  • THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND

    Not sure if I posted this in the right place. I would appreciate anyone that can help.
    I installed iLife 08 yesterday and everything seemed to go fine.
    When I go to open my MOVIES folder I keep getting a : "THE VOLUME FOR "MOVIES" CAN NOT BE FOUND" message?
    What happened??
    More importantly....
    On the left hand of my Finder window where it lists DEVICES, PLACES, and SEARCH FOR.... if I click on SEARCH FOR and go to ALL MOVIES....
    I was relieved to find all of my movie files still in there.
    BUT HERE'S THE PROBLEM:
    I was watching some of the movies... and I noticed as soon as I clicked off and started viewing a new movie... the previous movie would disappear from the ALL MOVIES FOLDER... and the number tally would decrease.
    I finally realized after 10 movies that files were disappearing... or perhaps being deleted.
    I used FIND to try to locate the lost files but no such luck. I can't find them anywhere.
    It also appears to be only my WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER FILES that are disappearing.
    What happened to my MOVIES folder? and where are these lost files going? Are they being deleted? UGH UGH UGH!
    If anyone can help I'd greatly appreciate. I'm very frazzled.

  • My Itunes Shows The downloads history...but when I try to play them it states it can not find the file.  (same computer for the last 2 years) and no issues. now 1/2 of my library can not be played (as it can not be found)

    When I try and re-download some of them from the ITUNES store...I get an error that the file already exists on the computer.  However, when I open Itunes.  The file can not be found.  This problem just started about 1 1/2 ago...prior to that did not have any problems...Help?  direction?

    You can move the folder to where iTunes expects to find it and that will work.
    Or you can attempt to fix one broken track by looking for it when prompted when you use Get Info or attempt to play. This often works if everything is in the standard layout.
    Or you can repair things with my FindTracks script.

  • Where do I download drivers for airport extreme.....my iPad can not be set up by he current software

    where do I download drivers for airport extreme.....my iPad can not be set up by he current software

    I have an airport extreme with updated software(latest) and I setup an Ipad 3 on it with ios6(wirelessly). You can access the airport to update it with the utitlity app on an ios device, mac, or pc. I dont think it has anything to do with the airport software. Did you try rebooting the airport, then trying again?
    Like james said, maybe more detail would help someone help you.

  • I keep getting an error The ipad can not be synced because the sync session failed. same error for my iphone. any ideas?

    I keep getting an error The ipad can not be synced because the sync session failed. same error for my iphone. any ideas?

    Try deleting iTunes from your computer. Do not delete your iTunes library. Then download and install a fresh copy if iTunes. Reboot your computer after installation of iTunes.
    Then reboot your phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    Reconnect the phone to your computer running iTunes and see if the sync process will go through.
