New book notifications by author

I have my iBook and iTunes set up to email me when an author has a new book. This never happens. I've tried everything and double checked all my settings. What might I be doing wrong??
Thanks!

To drag a page's contents means selecting just that page, which is just copy/paste with the result being an image.
Dragging a PDF into an iBA book means dragging the entire file, which is not the same as selective copy/paste and as noted, results in just an image.
It is possible to just do text /andor just do images, but success can depend on certain attributes they possess, etc. You need to select specific assets, then paste them in, then rework as needed.
PDF-to-iBA isn't neat - formatting, fonts, etc. will be lost. Find the original content that the PDF came from and try to work with it, instead - that will be much cleaner and require less rework, I think.

  • PDF files to create a new book in iBooks Author

    Is it wise to use ready PDF files to create a new book in iBooks Author?
    I have a music book with lot's of images that whas previously published as a physical book. I have it all as ready PDF files with illustrations.
    Should I copy paste all texts and images seperately into iBooks Author or could I just drag the complete PDF's into the iBooks program.
    Thanks!

  • New book on iBooks Author now in store

    Maria Langer's long awaited second book on iBooks Author is now in the store. It was created using iBooks Author and includes 3 hours of screencast video instruction.

    The book needs to have page turning features, links between pages, complex sub-sections and an icon on the home screen.
    I do this quite easily!!!!  BUT not using Apple software.
    Is  your client looking for a sales tool on iPads or a brochure/catalogue  for customers to use on their computers?
    I create .exe file with and without flip page and doing what you want.. only for PC / Windows.
    These are usless on Macs unless the user is prepared to buy an app to use .exe files.
    You do not mention if your client is on PC or Macs and the other issue is.. whatever they use...  their sales contacts  will (collectively) be using both OS and you need to cater for that.
    I use  two PC applications depending on what is wanted by the client. ( one is flip page  'tother is not)
    My client will use a mix of Keynote presentations and product video wrapped in iBooks on iPads as a sales tool.
    They have their products in a downloadable.exe format and also PDF- which is not interactive.
    Although I am  looking for an app that can do it better.
    Fact is, there are applications that do what you and I want but none work on both OS - at least that I can find.
    Take into consideration  sales persons "on the road" are using laptops and iPads for presentations and more are adopting  iPads.

  • I am new to epublishing but I wrote a book using ibooks Author.  I am now wanting to publish but I keep hitting stumbling blocks like--it asks if I have epub rights?  Do I?? Do I need to purchase them or are they implied if you are the author?

    If you are the author of the content, then you already have all the rights.   Of course if your book contains photos or other things created by other authors, you may need to acquire the rights to use those in your book.

  • How do I get the book title and author to appear on all pages?

    I'm trying to create a new layout, and I can't quite figure out some of the auto-text boxes.
    I'd like the book title, and author to appear at the top of the pages.
    Also, I'd like the chapter title to be at the top of the page for the subsequent chapter pages, but not in the same size as the chapter title at the beginning of the chapter.
    I've tried copying the chapter text box in layouts, then applying it to the chapter pages.  However, when I reformat the copied box for text size and orientation, the reformat effects all instances of that text box.  Grr.
    (I know this all sounds like too much text and garbage on each page, but it's for an instructional piece that people will likely print a page or two at a time)

    Hello Andy,
    Have you looked at the Layout Section.
    If it is not visible pull down the handle and the master pages are there down the list for you to add and change.
    Just first duplicate any page that you may want to change and then add the name and author titles to that page and press "APPLY"
    I hope this helps…
    Regards,

    I am not allowed to sign in with my Apple ID on iTunes Connect when I am trying to publish my book in iBooks Author. I do not understand why because I have fulfilled the first steps creating an account and informed my IRS tax number...

    The recommendation is always to make another ID for use with a paid books account. And while I can't swear this is at the root of your issue, you should in any case reach out to Apple for assistance on this one, I think.

  • I downloaded a new book and now it won't let me copy it to my nook.

    Our computer crashed and we had to go back to factory settings to get it back on.  I had to re-install Adobe Digital Editions to borrow books from my library.  I downloaded a new book and now it won't let me copy it to my nook.  I keep getting "not authorized to copy".

    You need to add a valid payment method to the account. An iTunes gift card can be added.

  • HT202929 Is there a way to add a hyperlink to a collection of books or to all books of an author?

    Is there a way to add a hyperlink to a collection of books or to all books of an author?
    On iPad, a iBook link to iTunes won't work, as it opens iTunes Store instead of iBooks Store.
    I can't even find a way to copy a link to a search on iBook Store...

    You can't install more storage space later.  You get 30 days (I believe) to decide if you are unhappy with a phone and return it for a refund.  After that there is no trade-in option.  You have to see if you can sell it (tricky) and buy a new one.

  • Is there a way to reorder or introduce new pages in iBooks Author, without creating a new IBook?

    Is there a way to reorder or introduce new pages in iBooks Author, without creating a new IBook? Is this possible?

    The main thing is...you have a way to move forward with your project.
    If I may offer some tips, learn to customise the template to suit your project...its basically very easy..once you try.Again a search will bring up posts that address this topic.
    IF you do create your own template..save it as a template before using it, that way you have a clean version every time.
    When putting your book together save versions as you go along..later you can delete them.
    If, as .. you seem to have found, you need to change things or want to try other options, you can copy whole chapters or sections and paste in a new order or  into another version of your template. If you copy into a different template or book, the template basic also transfer to the template. Best way to discover what can be done is simply open a new book to play with! Add a few chapters and sections...include some pages..and just drag things around, copy and paste where you choose. Its just learning and after you delete the junk!..BTW, yes, you can have single pages before the first chapter...i.e. I open a copyright page into a chapter...that drag it to the top of the book tree, a blue line will appear ..drop it.
    If you need any help or advice, its available in abundance on this forum.  Have fun...

    Hi,
    Read Data warehousing books written by Ralph Kimball or Bill Inmon in order to familiarize yourself with the basic concepts of data warehousing. This is the foundation of the entire thing.
    Follow the SAP training materials on BW Data Warehousing, BW Reporting and BW Modeling. There are several books that can help you a lot when getting started. check this link

  • New book on CRM 2007 Webclient - Customizing & Development

    Hi,
    yesterday I saw that there is a new book coming up on the CRM WebClient 2007 in march. It seems to be focused on developers. It is available through SAP Press, ISBN 978-3-8362-1287-8.
    Has anybody had a chance to get a sneak peak at it? What are the contents? Amazon did not have a lot on it and Sappress just posted a short description and the chapters included.
    The authors are Michael Füchsle and Matthias Zierke. Does anyone know about the authors?
    Looking forward to any information if I should invest in it.
    cheers Carsten

    Hi Matthias,
    I really did not mean to offend you or any other author/publisher/etc.. Until now I have not had the opportunity to write a book on something, but I am sure it is a whole lot of work.
    However, I really am glad that someone wrote a book about WebClient and I am positive that there is a lot of wisdom in it that will answer many of the "beginner" questions. The fact that it has been published in german first is completely understandable as both authors are german. Moreso I would have found it very sad if the completed german version of the book would be held back until the english one is ready.
    Back on topic:
    I regret to say that I still did not have the opportunity to get a look into the book myself. My colleague has recieved it and it is circulating around our company giving WebClient "beginners" a good start.
    Has someone else (sorry Stephen, there are native german speakers in here ) had a look at it? I can not believe that no one in the WebClient Forum has read it by now?!
    cheers Carsten

  • How do I add a widget to give a review or star rating for a book at the end of a book in iBooks Author?

    How do I add a widget to give a review or star rating for a book at the end of a book in iBooks Author? You know, how you buy books on iBooks and when you're finished reading it, there's a place where you can give a rating or review right there on the very last page?

    Just supply a link that says 'Review This Book' - use http://itunes.apple.com/linkmaker/ to generate one.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom
