My mum has just bought a secondhand iPad, perfect condition, but i cannot get the ibooks to sync. The iPad does not have the ibook app, so i dragged it across to the iPad but it still does not show up in the settings so i cannot transfer all the ibooks that she had on her iPad 1.  how can i get the ibook app onto the iPad 2 so i can transfere all her books. i have managed to do the music easily but this ibook is proving to be a real vxxxx, sorry been at it all day eating up lol.
Hope you can help.

  • I'm looking for a bluetooth remote for iPad's iBooks app

    I'm looking for a bluetooth remote that will allow me to flip the pages of a book in the iBooks app.
    Does anybody know of such a thing? I have found remotes for the iPad, but they seem obscure as to what it can accomplish. I need something more than something that plays iTunes remotely. I have a specific need.
    Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Yubz Magnum really has great sound. They come in four colors too.

  • New Ipad mini installing app issues

    Please help.
    I have purchased a new iPad mini today. I have spent the last few hours getting annoyed as to why I can't install any apps on it. This ipad is for my wife. I already have an iPad 2 and have never had issue with it. Everything else seems fine, network connection is good, we did manage to download iBooks and after that every app I tried to install  (YouTube, Facebook, Twitter etc) the little circle would come up for a few seconds and then go back to the 'free' button. I have reset the ipad and I have double checked account settings. There are no restrictions on. I have downloaded iOS 7 (did that before we even started downloading anything). Just can't figure it out. Can anyone help??

    Ok ... I sorted it out.
    I think it was because the machine had ios6 on and updated to iOS 7 as soon as it was turned on literally after set up. I just did a hard reset (deleted all data etc) and set it up again with iOS 7 from start up. Works fine now.
    I suppose others might get this problem if they buy a new ipad mini with iOS 6 on it. Just do what I did (eventually, not the whole 2 hour head scratching and teeth grinding) and it should work. Reset the machine by erasing all data.
    Cheers

  • Ipad deleting ibook app on sync

    I just inherited an old ipad (2nd gen) running Ios5. I am currently using an Iphone 5S on iso7 and a macbook running Ios 10.9. This means that both my devices are running the new ibooks.
    The old ipad can't run the latest ibook app so i'm having to run it on the old app, however, whenever I sync my ipad with my computer it tries to download the new ibooks, it can't, and it deletes the old app. It's a real hassle as I have to redownload it each time. Any way to make it keep the old app without trying to download the new one?

    IIf the old iPad is an iPad 2 it can be updated to iOS 7.1.2. Do this and you won't have any problem with iBooks levels.

  • If you have to change over to a new ipad do in-app purchases carry over too?

    Hi,
    I had to swap to a new ipad as the old one was damaged and I know it is easy to re download my apps purchased from the itune store. I noticed though one app though showed as the "Lite" version (I had paid for the full version). So my question is, do the in-app purchases reinstall onto the new ipad or do you have to load the Lite version and pay all over again.

    I would start with some supplemental security scans at the system level. These two tools are highly regarded:
    Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/
    Once those come up clean and resolved, start Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode and test with your add-ons disabled. If that works, restart Firefox normally. If the problem recurs, it's probably one of your add-ons.
    Before using Safe Mode, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

  • New ipad, transfer/sync apps

    I plan to buy an ipad.  My wife has one that we sync to the imac.  I sync using my MBP but do that less as I now backup to icloud..  How do I get the apps that I use and its data from her ipad to my new one?  I can't sync her ipad to my MBP without getting some error message. 

    Your post is a little confusing to me. But the bottom line is that of you are sharing this iPad now and backing up with iCloud, simply restore the new iPad from the backup of the current iPad.
    Back up the current iPad first, so that the backup is as current as it can be. Then activate the new iPad and when you get to a certain point in the process, you will have to opportunity to restore from an iCloud or an iTunes backup. Select the iCloud option.
    This advice is based on the assumption that you are sharing the iPad and all of the apps and data on the device which also means that you are sharing an Apple ID.

  • HT5557 How to set Night mode on Ipad Mini iBooks apps when reading PDF file?

    How to set Night mode in iBooks (ver 3.1) for iPad Mini?

    It's not available within the iBooks app  for PDFs, the closest you can get is to the Invert Colours accessibility option  (though pictures will appear negative) -  you can set Settings > General > Accessbility > Triple-Click Home to 'Invert Colours', which means that you can then use a triple-click of the home button to go to white text on a black background.

  • How to get an app on new iPad after the app has been pulled from app store?

    I have the vlc player app on my iPad 2 and want to put it on my ipad3. Since it has since been pulled from the store, how do I get it on my new iPad? I is no other app that I have found that can replace it.

    I did that before I bought the new iPad and was able to transfer all my other apps, somehow the app never made it to my current iPad. I'll try again and let you guys know once I get home to my laptop.

    Hi Demo, I am back, so here is my result.
    On my PC I signed out of itunes and deleted the software and then downloaded again.
    It appears, at this stage to be working OK. It has allowed me to do a restore and backup, fingers crossed xxx.
    That is a very good sign.
    The happy result is, I have not been arrested and my computer is intact, so far.......
    Thanks for trying to help..
    I'm happy to hear this news. Sorry that I couldn't help, but you are quite welcome anyway.

  • Got a new iPad Air, all Apps are synced, beside of iBooks. If I open the App Store it is showen as just to be "Open"ed, but its Not available.

    See Subjekt.

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • IPAD 2 - IBOOKS app not appearing after download

    I have been able to download COMCAS and SONOS apps without problem and they show on my screen (I have only one screen) but I have tried several times to download ibooks using my itunes store, then syncing with my IPAD. I never see any app on my IPAD. It is NOT on any 2nd screen page and I have tried off/on with IPAD, then a soft reset and nothing works.
    Would appreciate any help since using IPAD as a book reader was one of my main reasons for buying it.
    Thanks,
    Pete

    When you say a soft reset, do you mean : pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignoring the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot). If not, then give that a go. A number of people have had a similar issue with iBooks (and I've only heard about it affecting iBooks), and it's then appeared after this type of reset

  • New ipad, auto install apps?

    Hi everyone!
    I bought an iPad for my girlfriend and i would like that, when she will turn on for the first time, it will automatically download and install some apps (games) that i have bought for her.
    Is there a way to do so?
    I was thinking to register a new apple account and download/buy some apps from another ipad and tell her to log-in using that account.
    Will that works?
    Any solution?
    Thank you very much

    If she already has an Apple ID, setting up another one would be a recipe for ongoing confusion and headaches. If she already has an Apple ID, you could gift her the apps through the App Store. She will be able to redeem the gift and download them.

  • New ipad not loading app store

    hey guys, my ipad 3 just isn't loading up the app store. Ive tried everything that I can think of from shutting down the app from the multitasking window to restoring my ipad from itunes but still no luck. It looks like this where on the home page of the app store it shows the new and noteworthy apps along with every thing else but it just doesnt load up. Any help would be appreciated but right now this issue is just plain annoying.

    Problem solved:
    If the same problem happens to you, please do the following first before anything else.
    Setting - Safari - Block Cookies = Select "From Third Parties & Advertisers" - Delete background App running - re-open iTuens or Podcast - All should load up with no problems.
    I don't understand why the new software wouldn't select this option automatically or at least state it would need changing.

  • New iPad owner wants app suggestions especially for photography?

    Want to use ipad for editing pictures what are some good apps? Also can I get edited pics back to main computer (Macbook Pro?)

    There are many available on the store. So far I find I use Photogene, PhotoForge, and Filterstorm the most. The first two are less than $10 each and the third is free.
    Just browse the photography section on the app store and read the reviews.
    I usually transfer my photos between my iPhone 3GS, 64GB 3G iPad, and iMac using the Photo Transfer app. Other times I use the Camera Connection Kit or iTunes.
